Consider Clatskanie
Team Hard To Beat
4
Just why this Saturday's game
with Clatskanie is considered the
hurdle towards the county cham
pionship, is hard to say, unless
the Clatskanie team is considered
the hardest team to defeat.
Rumors of Rainier's football
team float to this city, as having
a stronger team than last
being heavier and faster.
However, by this coming Sat-
urday, the local team will pre-
sent a better working machine,
due to the experience gained in
the last two games played with
St. Helens and Forest Grove.
Bush, Hieber, Kirk and Adams
show wonderful form, and a
stiong, smooth working backfield.
Much improvement is seen in
the playing of Lee, Christiansen,
Berg, Bennett, George, Craven
and Sorlee on the line, with
strong substitutes in Culver,
Cummings, and the two Marshall
boys.
Each day this week the team
has seen many hours of stren
uous practice, and the team that
Coach Austin will present on the
field Saturday for the game
against Clatskanie will play foot
ball with plenty of speed and
skill.
The passing in last week's
game by the home team was near
perfect. Making 12 complete
passes, Vernonia outplayed its
opponents, and Bush well timed
every pass, getting good coop-
eration.
It is predicted that this Satur-
day will see a good turnout to
support the home team when
they meet a much heavier team
here at the ball park at 2 p.m.

St. Helens Misses
Meal And Loses
Game To Vernonia
The following writeup appear
ed in the St. Helens Sentinel of
October 3 regarding the St. Hel-
ens-Vernonia game
September 28:
Although the ball was in
nonia's territory about
fifths of the time and St. Helens
made 10 first downs to Verno
nia’s one, the local boys were de
feated in last Saturday’s game
6 to 0.
Going on the field an hour
and a half earlier than they had
expected and with nothing to eat
since breakfast because they had
had to push their Ford truck part
of the way the boys were defeat
ed by a 50 yard run following a
lateral pass play. The ball was
dead when it hit the ground but
was picked up and carried, unhin
dered, over the goal line. St. Hel
ens’ biggest weaknesses were a
weak line and uncertain signals.
The defeat is especially unfor
tunate for St. Helens as it may
have a strong bearing on the con
ference championship this fall.
Vernonia’s return game October
19 will not be a conference game
and Saturday's score will stand
in the conference schedule.

RICHFIELD MANUFACTURING
ASPHALT PAVING MATERIAL
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 30—
That famous slogan of the speed
way or airway, “Richfield wins
again,” is being applied to pave
ment work,
for the company
whose
gasoline
has
become
world-famous for speed, is now
engaged in manufacturing and
distributing one of the finest
asphalt paving materials.
Such is the assertion of J. R.
Keane, president of the Western
Asphalt association and an offic
ial of Richfield and Pan-Ameri
can, who declares that the man
ufacturers of asphaltic oils are
as particular about quality as
are the manufacturers of gasoline
and other high-test oil products.
“One of the important tasks
now being done by Richfield and
other manufacturers of high
grade asphalt is the reconstruc
tion at small cost, of pavements
made by old-time and less ef
ficient processes,” declared Mr.
Keane.
“Twenty years ago or so, far
less was known about efficient
paving than today—irepectioii
and high standards were not so
keen. No matter what type pave
ment was laid—brick, cement,
asphalt—there was by no means
the wearing quality that will be
found in present day pavements.
We Would Like
That the same insistence upon
high quality which has made
Richfield gasoline and Richlube
oil the favorite with motorists
and aviators, has caused city en
gineers and others to insist on
Richfield asphalt, is the assertion
of J. R. Keane, president of the
Western
Asphalt
association.
Keane, whq is an official of the
Richfield-Pan-American Asphalt
um department calls attention to
the newest “wrinkle” evolved by
asphalt engineers in repairing old
roads and pavements with, new,
improved asphalt finish. Upper
photo shows a street paved 20
years ago, being treated with
one of the new heaters. Below,
the treated pavement is being
resurfaced with Richfield asphalt
and rolled
into a pavement
which, according to Keane, will
last “indefinitely.”
Consequently there is a big de
mand for asphaltum resurfacing
by the latest method—a re-paving
which is admitted to be as per
manent as can be" had, at the
lowest possible cost.
Richfield’s interest in asphalt
highways dates from that com-
pany’s merger . some tim" t 0
with Pan-American, at which ti..ie
Richfield acquired what i:i ilo.
dared to be the “finest aud most
complete” asphalt plant in the
world. Richfield asphalt, it is
stated, is being marketed through
out the world, especially in West
ern America, Pacific Inlands and
the Orient.

Weakness Is Shown
Oregon’s lateral pass play,
used offensively both lor yardage
and for pulling out the defensive
backs and ends, failed almost en
tirely against Pacific. Ill timing
from the wing back to the No. 4
back was responsible for the
poor showing and unless there is
improvement the play will be a
fine opportunity for the next op
ponent’s ends and tackles to
throw the Webfoots for losses.

The game started at 2:30, one-

scheduled time, so it appears that
the Tigers were under the im
pression that the game would be

Referring to Vernonia’s
turn game October 19, which will
not be a conference game. The
.‘ounty seat team evidently has
this game already won.
Let’s see, Vernonia won from
Forest Grove last Saturday 7 to
6 in a fast game, the local foot
ball team defeating a much hea
vier team. Why not concede the
local team a chance to defeat
them October 19?
Ira Hyde, editor of the St. Hel
ens Mist, gave the facts regard
ing the game of September 28,
stating that his home town was
defeated, and, while one of the
best boosters of St. Helens, re-
fused to “frame” his writeup
with alibis.
Frol bably Ira and a few more

ber some good fighters who miss-
ed many a meal, pushed trucks
and gun carriages through the
mud, lost and won, received glory
modestly as a just reward for
their efforts, and when defeated
had no alibi, conceding probably
that they had met, for that one
engagement, a better group of
lighters, under a superior leader.
