STUDENTS FAVOR
CHEAP FOOTBALL
UNDERGRADUATES WANT ADMIs-
SION PRICE REDUCED.
Gophers Echo Conference Recommends
tion that 30 Cents Should Be suffi-
Gent and Clamor for More Privileges
Student Members Of Athletic Board
in Sympathy with Cry-May Revive
Season-Ticket System.

Football games will not be as expen-
sive for student rooters, III the future
as they have been in the past if under
graduate sentiment and the opinion Of
the undergraduate members Of the
board of athletic control at the univers.
ity of Minnesota are any indication Of
the action which will be taken by the
athletic board.
At the last meeting Of the big nine
conference motion. was passed unani-
mously expressing the opinion Of the
members Of the conference that the
price for admission to collegiate foot
ball games should be reduced. Fifty
cents, according to the athletic repre-
sentatives of the big western colleges,
should be sufficient. No definite rule
was established and the motion was
merely in the form of a recommends
ton to the different colleges, but judg
ing from campus sentiment at the uni:
versity, the suggestion will be adopted
at Minnesota. E---
Cheap Seats for Few.
Any reduction in the prices of tick
cts to the games on Northrop field
would be hailed with delight by many
students who are prevented from seeing
the games on account Of the high price
of admission. Any student desiring a
seat IN the best sections OF the SbanuS
has been compelled to take his chance
with the general public and pay the
regular admission fee at the same time
The only privilege granted the IN
dergraduates has been the right to pur'
chase rooter seats in the four corner
sections of the grand stands. These
have been sold at the general admis
| sion price, but at the big games OF
the year the supply of rooter seats hai
| never. been sufficient for the demand
| and the students have either been com.
PEELED to stand at the ends of the field
or pay the regular So reserved-seat
price.
Want First Choice.
The students argue that the alumni
faculty members and students should
be given first choice of seats. as is tEt
custom in many of the institutions OF
the country, and that any reduction IL
| the price Of seats should be made pri
marily for the benefit Of the anniversary
undergraduates. -s@-..-
AS result Of the agitation for re
duction in the admission price to foot
ball games, it is possible that the sea
ticket system will again be in
stalled at the university. Tickets ar
issued admitting to all the home game
of the year and are sold to the student
at, reduced rate. This plan was tried
four years ago at the university, bu
was abandoned on the plea that no
! enough tickets were sold to make thu
scheme success. -~.

RANCHERS DECLARE THAT
WATER is BEING WASTED
Talk of Legal Action Against River
side Companies for Leaving
Wells Uncapped

SpAcial to The Herald
SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. S.-There
is a great amount of indignation
among the ranchers of the valley over
what they term the wanton waste OF
water by the Riverside Water COM
panies in this valley by leaving their
artesian wells uncapped. Measure
ments taken yesterday by the engi-
neers of the Water Protective associa-
ton of this valley show that 1000
inches of water are going down the
canal of the Riverside Water company
and fully 5000 inches down the Santa
Ana river and to waste.
Many of the wells of the Riverside
companies are left uncapped, which
the people here believe is rank inJus-
tice in light of the scarcity of water
in this artesian basin in the past. 1t
is contended that if the wells were
kept capped now so the water level
could rise there would be plenty of
water in the basin all next summer
The officers of the Water Protective
association are considering the prose-
cution of the Riverside Water COM
panies for wilful waste of the water
unless they at once show a disposition
to cap their wells and thus preserve
the water supply.
A mysterious desert death about fifty
miles northeast of Daggett has been
discovered and reported here by Dep
uty Sheriff William Smithson. The
body had evidently been on the desert
for some time. There was nothing
about the clothes to identify the man.
1t is supposed to have been some miner
who was evidently coming from or
going to the Death Valley mines and
was overcome by thirst.
The city trustees have approved the
plans for the big natatorium to be
erected in this city on East Third
water to be supplied from hot springs
south of the city. 1t is proposed to
make the natatorium the finest on the
coast, of white tile and to provide
other innovations not found in the
west. Work will be at once COM
menced. The building will be 6Sx213
feet in size and located right in the
heart of the city.
San Bernardino will hold no street
carnival this spring. This was decided
last night by the Merchants associa-
ton, the action being taken because
of the opposition to the proposed show
in certain quarters, it being mad
visable to attempt to hold the show.

ROBBERS BLOW UP BANK,
GETTING $4,000 BOOTY
Clever Burglary at Lebanon Believed
to Have Been Work of
Local Men

By Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. S-A special
to the Bulletin from Lebanon, Ore,
says: The bank of Lebanon was blown
open last night and robbed of almost
$4,000 in coin and currency. The rob-
bers made neat job and left no clew.
Entrance was gained through the rear
of the bank. One hundred bales of
cascara bark from nearby warehouse
were used to deaden the sound of the
explosion. The door of the vault was
blown completely off by the charge of
nitroglycerine, and although persons
were sleeping only two doors away,
they were not awakened All the
cash and currency in the vault was
taken. The bank is protected against
loss by bankers insurance.
Since the robbers used no horses it
is believed that they are not strangers
here and local men are suspected.

TOURISTS SUDDEN DEATH
Aged cIevelander Expires in 6athtub
Sanitary Problem

special to Ihe Herald.
SANTA MONICA, Feb. S.-Cold in
death and sitting upright in a bathtub
Ealf filled with water, the nude body
of John W. Wray, a tourist from
Cleveland, Ohio, was discovered by
attendants of the North Beach bath
house late last evening. Mr.. Wray was
10 years old and had recently arrived
at Santa Monica, accompanied by L
son and two daughters. The party
had rented a cottage, corner Arizona
and Fourth streets, and intended
spending the winter here.
This morning Coroner Trout arrived
from Los Angeles to make inquiry into
the case and announced at once that
death had resulted from apopleXy. He
found no water,in the lungs and said
that an autopsy would be unnecessary.
The remains will be forwarded to CleVe-
land for interment,
The first really feasible solution 10
the garbage problem that has yet been
offered will be laid before the Santa
Monica board at its meeting next Mon
DAY evening, and residents of Ocean
Park and the parent city will be very
much interested in noting what dis
position the city fathers make of it.
The plan in nutshell is as follows:
That the city purchase fifty ton scow
and arrange dumping place at the end
of one of the long piers. or build IA
special pier, and that all hauling and
dumping be done bet Ween sunset and
sunrise. As a crematory has been de-
clared out of the question, the plan
suggested appears a good one and
worthy of serious consideration.
