ROBERTS THOUGHT HE WAS
MARRIED TO MISS RI6GS
That he went through all the nec
essary rituals of a wedding ceremony
thinking he was getting married on a
wager, that if his friends would ar
range all the details for him, only to
later find out that the ceremony was
i a fake, was the experience of 1. A.
j Roberts, who thought he was a mar
jried man and that Mi-s Mabell Riggs
j of Portland was his bride from 8
i o'clock until 12 o'clock, following a
trained up wedding ceremony at the
home of P. A. Young, last night.
The affair was a huge joke at the
expense of Roberts, but he was equal
to the fray in every sense of the word.
The event originated from the wager.
Roberts declared he would get mar
ried if friends would arrange all the
dfi.iiis, so M iss Riggs, who is visit
ing at the Young home was linked in
the plot. Everything was arranged
to a minute detail. A fictitious mar
riage license was procured. The ser
vice of President Crooks of Albany
College was engaged and when the
guests assembled at the Yotiiif home,
i; was announced that a surprise was
in store for them.
Mrs. Young pliycd the wedd-ng
march and Miss Riggs prettily and ap
propriately attired tor the occasion
made her appearance. Miss Isabeile
Young acted as bridesmaid and Har
rv Hawkins as best man. P. A.
Young gave the bride away. The ring
ceremonv was used.
After the ceremony the truests en
joyed a splendid supper. Everything
progretsed in all sincerity. R jben s
actually telephoned his mother and in
formed her he had been married and
then made his supposed bride in
form her parents in Portland o.'er
the long distance telephone. It was
not until after 12 o'clock that Roberts
was informed of :he joke and t.ien
i the fun came is a great outmir'-i. .Ml
! through the ordeal Roberts wa e iual
I to the occasion.
JUDGE M KNIGHT CONTINUED
CASE AGAINST ED RICHARDS
Took It Under Advisement and
Will Hear Further Evidence
on Next Monday.
After a hearing in the juvenile de
partment of the county court yester
day afternoon of the case involving
:l.e alleged delinquency of 1'earl Rich
aids, age 13, Judge McKnight took
it under advisement and continued
it until next Monday, pending the in
troduction of further evidence.
Ed Richards, a laboring man, and
father of the girl, was made defendant
in the petition filed h- Mrs. Isabella
Southworth. In the petition she al
leges that the girl was a dependant
child and did not receive proper par
ental care and guardianship. Rich
ards and corps of witnesses on both
sides were present at the hearing, in
cluding the girl.
1,100 EUGENE PEOPLE
ATTENDED FOOTBALL GAME
Over 1,100 Eugene people attended
the game in Albany last Saturday ac
cording to reports of the two local
railroads and of these a big" share
stayed over to attend the after-game
festivities at night. For hours the
streets were crowded. Into a town
of ordinarily 6,000 people was poured
trainload after trainload of friends
and old graduates of Oregon and O.
A. C.
Like a G. A. R. reunion, the old
times were talked over. Games of 20
years ago were renewed and the real
college spirit bu'bbled and flowed.
About it all there was a genuine feel
ing of good naturedness between the
two factions. In a tie game neither
side could say that they got the worst
of it and they met on an equal plane.
Various fraternities and sororities en
tertained for Oregon and O. A. C.
students alike. It was the first real
get-to-gether assembly of years and
as many expressed themselves after
wards, a logical reason why the annu
al game should be played on neutral
ground. Eugene Register.
