Announcement of the candidacy of Senator .fliram W. Johnson for the re publican nomination for the presidency has created a sensation in New York and throughout the East, according to a telegram received today by Frank R. Havemeier, secretary of the Northern California Roosevelt League, from George Henry Payne, editor of the Forum of New York. The message follows: “ Senator Johnson’s announcement has created sensation herein New York and throughout East. Progressives are aroused as they have not been since Roosevelt’s announcement in 1912 and many regular leaders are cor dial and sympathetic, as they feel he will put some life into the party and give it a chance to win. Johnson’s an nouncement has practically put an end to all talk of New York delegation be - 1 ing for Coolidge, and it is generally admitted by most conservative leaders that those delegates who will not be for Johnson in convention will be for Wadsworth. “ —San Francisco Call, Friday, November 23 opened with a down pour of rain which continued all day. The football game between Woodburn High and Silverton High scheduled for that afternoon came off according to plans in spite of the rain. Six car loads of boosters came over from Silverton. The business men of Woodburn closed their places of busi ness and furnished a goodly attendance at the game, and representatives from Aurora, Hubbard and other districts were also present to see the sports. During the first half Woodburn scored a touchdown, but was unable to make a goal. Silverton scored two touch downs aud two goals, thereby winning the game by a score of 4 to 16. Woodburn feels that the loss of this game was due in part to the faet that four of her best players were unable to play. M orris ! O ptkîal C o . m f i 1 m Can ©Ijankfnl W?
