complished this year. With approxi
mately 1330,000 available only tw3
Ismail contracts have been comnloted
thus far, amounting to about $30,
000. Next year considerably over
$1,000,000 will bo avutlablo and tho

primarily a strong executive rather
than nn engineer, will bo needed to
head tho department.
"Mr. Kobcrts was appointed two

Hay. being at that tlmo a resident
of Medford, Ore., though ho had for
many years been n niomber of tho
Washington stato college faculty.
As no stato highway appropriations

Brickloy place-kicked a goal.
Hnrdwick relumed Guernsey's
kick-off from Harvard's 15-yard
