' l county. Tha llai risburg peo ple tried to -t?t the coin; court lo promise to construct the bridg-; re gardless of the fact that '.he Lane county court would not assist, but the local court would not give any assurance. This coupled with the fact that Lane county has refused flatly to go half in the construction of the bridge, leads to the belief that the bridge will not be constructed for some lime at least. Feasible reasons have been assign ed by the Linn county court, mainly on points nf taxation, (o suhst intiate the contention that the bridge cannot be built at the present time. The matter is left just where it was left off after the second meeting. The subject was first broached by a dele gation of I larrishurg people, number ing over MM) men and women, who came here on November 4. After con ferring with the Lane county court, and ascertaining its attitude, a sec ond delegation waited upon l lit Linn county court n few days a no and to the final conference was held.

The college boys could not get down the field under their punts or could solve the combination of forward pars es worked on them by their oppon ents. A (brilliant pass from Mouteith to liriggs scored lo touchdown in the third quarter and another followed by a line plunge by Mouteith netted an other touchdown in the second quar ter. The high school lads failed to kick the goal on either. As far as holding the line on both the defensive and offensive the college lads played good. The high school team's line was weak. Mouteith and liriggs starred for the high school and Mrince. Gilbert and Hodge played a good game for the collegians. C. P. HENDERSON DIED AT HEPPNER YESTERDAY Mr. O. P.
