NEW YORK, Sept. 22. Following

Gives Report Sound of Trutti.
While nothing positive will be ad

ested, it is currently reported on the
street that a big sawmill is to be
erected on the lower end of Upper
Klamath Lake, somewhere' between
the Winema Landing and Pelican
City.
Truth is loaned to the rumor by
the fact that tbe Klamath Develop
ment company is now petitioning the
city council for vacation of several
lots and streets In Shippington Addi
tion, and by the fact that E. H. Cox,
president of the Weed Lumber com
pany, Tuesday held a conference with
Indian Commissioner Cato Sells in

timber on Klamath Indian reserva
tion. The thing upon which erection of
the mill seems to hinge is securing
a large body of timber In the north

mill to feed on. If this is secure the
general opinion is that the mill will
bet built, and in the not distant future.

'ttratlon of California In 1913,
By a score of 20 toO, the Klamath
county high school football team yes
terday afternoon defeated the team of
town boys collected to provide scrim
mage practice for the school boys.
Three touchdowns and two goals af
ter touchdown furnished tho 20
points.
Tho school boys clearly had the un
fnuied and unconditioned town boys
outclassed In every department. Yet
two of their touchdowns were
"leaks," aud only ono made by buck
ing. Tho town team would have
scored ono touchdown it a perfect
ppbs, Poll to Graves, had not been
droppod by the latter. Graves was
lenyards behind tho goal .lino whon
he jecelved the bill, but allowed it to
drop through his arms.
The game yesterday was the first
scrlraraige for the school boys this
year, and initiated many of them who
ha.-o not had football experience,
Considering that tho squad has been
out les than two weeks, and many of
Its members aro Inexperienced, tho
bChool boys showed up fairly well.
Coach Hugglns has mapped out a
good-looking offensive, and has some
good men to carry it out. The quar
terback U largely eliminated, and it
is hard to dope out which way tho
play Is going. The line could be Im
proved by more beef. "
Graham Klehl, captain and back
field man, is the real star of the
team He uses good Judgment in di
recting the offeneslve, runs well with
the loli, and can pass and kick; ho
ocs hard, and will Improve with
I.ractlce. Ho pulled down tho only
fcrward pass completed by Coach
Jl'iKcin's men yesterday. In tho line
Koh I lliott at end shows up strong
est at present.
Those who played for the town
team yesterday are Lawrence Mot
schenbacher, Kennoth Perry, Cecil
Weeks. Will Hum. Clarence Mot
schenbacher, Forrert Pell, Alvsro'
Deals, Read Bain, Will McMillan.
Maurico Graves, Ira Orem and Noil
Sbinn.
Coach Hugglns used fifteen m
desirlng to give as many candid!
for tho team as possible a workout.
