FRANKLIN ANNIVERSARY
WAS CELEBRATED AT VARIOUS
PLACES THROUGHOUT THE
UNITED STATES TODAY.
Boston, the Birthplace Of Franklin,
Made Special Efforts to Commem-
crate the Event.

BOSTON, Mass, Jan. 17.-Through-
out the United States the two-hund-
redth anniversary of the birth of Ben
iamin Franklin is celebrated today.
Patriotic societies everywhere have ar
ranged for special celebrations and
there is probably not a school in the
country, from Maine to California, from
the Canadian frontier to the gulf, where
the memory of the Great American is
not appropriately honored. Boston being
the birthplace of Franklin, made
special efforts to pay a fitting tribute
to the memory of the great scientist
statesman and philosopher.
In cooperation with the Franklin BIZ
centennial committee of the common
wealth and the city of Boston, the pro-
gram for the celebration was arranged.
Particular attention was given to the
appropriate celebration of the day in
the public schools of the city. A
pamphlet, containing a brief biography
of Franklin and extracts from MS
writings, was compiled and distributed
among the different schools, to be used
by the teachers at the exercises in hon.
or of Franklin. Special celebrations
were arranged in every school in the
city and a general celebration will be
held this afternoon at Symphony hall.
1t will have a public character and the
public will be admitted free to all seats
on the ground floor and the gallery,
which are not used by the school child
rem. The exercises will include ad-
dresses and a musical program, rend-
cred by a chorus of 100 mixed voices
from the schools and the English high
school orchestra of forty pieces. A
poem, specially written for the occasion
by the Hon. James Jeffrey Roche, the
American consul in Genoa, Italy, will
be one of the features of the celebra-
ton.

FARMER TEAM IS EXPOSED
WERE SPECIAL INDUCEMENTS
HELD OUT TO NERVY FOOT
BALL PLAYERS?

An awful row has been stirred up in
Oregon over the charge openly made
that the football team of the Oregon
college, the same team
that wiped up the gridron with Wash
ington here Thanksgiving day, was
composed for the most part by stu
dents who were taking the football
course only, and that as soon as the
football season was closed they re-
turned to their usual avOcations at the
forge and on the docks, and that only
two or three Of the men who composed
that great team are now in school,
says the Seattle Times.
1t is pointed out that Rinehart, Will
liams, Pilkington and Abraham are
graduates and that Dunlap, Emily and
Little have been in school more than
the required four years. Abraham,
Griffith and Walker entered late at the
urgent insistence of the football lead
ers, and they did not return to school
after the game with Multnomah, in
Portland, which broke up in row.
Abraham Was Persuaded.
Abraham went to Corvallis to pay
visit to the college last fall and in
sisted that he would not play football,
however much he might be urged. But
before his visit ended he did decire to
play, and registered, taking several
studies, in only one of which grades
were given him, as he left Immediately
after the Multnomah game.
Griffith refereed a game at Corvallis
early in the season and was in Cor
ing which time it was known that
Stimson and others endeavored to in
was sought for him. After a few days
he registered. He did not return from
Portland after the game of December
9. Under these circumstances all can
judge for themselves why Griffith en-
tered o. A. c. and whether he really
intended to graduate, Notwithstanding
the statements given out.
AS to Walker, he definitely stated
That he would not enter college, as he
had a good position in Portland. Ar
engagements were finally made, how
ever, whereby he was granted three
months leave, and upon being urged
he went to Corvallis and entered the
college, taking but few studies. He is
now working at his old job in Portland
Lawrence Played Three Games.
Lawrence played in the Chemawa
Whitman and Pullman games and did
not go to California only because of
gunshot wound in his leg, accidentally
received. He recovered sufficiently to
play part of the Eugene game, when
he fractured his collar-bone and was
out for the remainder of the season.
He was considered a great player. He
came with Abe Sickle from the Uni
versity of Nevada, where Coach Sickle
Abe's cousin, was coach when they
made their famous trip to California
and through the northwest. Frizzell of
Eugene played on the same team Law
renee took no studies and the reg
istrar did not receive his registration

Those Who Did Not Return.
Of the fifteen men, seven did not re-
turn after the holidays. These are
Root, Williams, Abraham, Griffith,
Walker, Emily and Rinehart. Since
the last mentioned is also a basketball
player, it would not be surprising if ne
returns soon.
