Settled.

The big crowd which turned out to
the football game between the Uni
vcrsity OF North Carolina and Wash
ington and Lee University at the Ca
sino park yesterday afternoon, assures
the success of this class of sport In
Newport News. and In the future even
more important games than this one
will be played here.
The University OF Virginia has al
ready asked for game in this city
next season and the athletic commit.
tee of the Merchants Association is

legcs in the north asking for games

ranged between Virginia and one OF
those colleges.
Last night the managers OF both
Washington and Lee and North Caro-
lima asked Chairman Horwitz, of tho
athletic committee, for games here
next season and 1t is probable thu,
these teams will meet here again in
1908.
The total receipts of the game count
ed for up to 10 o'clock last night
amounted to $3.50 and 1t is expected
that the amount will he increased 20
$500 when all of the tickets and cash
Is turned in by the different stores
that had the tickets on SALE Each
team received $3.50 as its share or
the receipts, leaving about $3.50 for
the Merchants Association. The cost
of preparing the field advertising the
game and the music will amount to
more than 5000 leaving between 800
Ind $3.50 clear for the association.
The amount of money in proportion to
the number of people attending was
cut down by the sale of a large num-
Der of childrdp's tickets at twenty-five
cents each This money Will be ex-
pended in improving Washington ana

WASHINGTON & LEE BOYS
PLAY CAROLINA TO DRAW

pail III the closing half and several
good runs were made by Mann, Nc
Neil, Crosswell, Armentrout and
STREET.
In the last few minutes of play
Washington and Lee was dangerously
near Cardinals goal and it was
thought that the Virginia boys would
attempt drop or place kick t.goal,
nut no such attempt was made.
Both Need Practice.
Both clcvens showed a sad need of
practice. the playing being ragged at
times. Every one of the half dozen
or more forward passes attempted by
the clevens failed. resulting in a great
zeal OF penali2ing There was con-
siderable holding in line also. and sew
eral penalties resulted from that.
On account OF these penalties both

Crowd On Hand Early.
Although the play was not schcd-
uled to begin until $3.50 o'clock, the
crowd began assembling on the field
nearly an hour before that time. and
shortly after 3 o'clock over two thou
sand enthusiasts, nearly all OF them
wearing the colors of the rival elev-
ems, were gathered in the cast, west
and grand stands and around the side
lines.
The Washington and Lee eleven was
the first to reach the field, passing
through the extreme southerly gate
of the park mt 1920 o'clock amid
chorus of cheers from It's supporters.
The team Immediately went through
light signal practice. followed with
punting and passing the ball. North
Carolina entered the main gate Of tie
park few minutes behind the Wash
ington and Lee players and it also
passed and puntcd the ball for few
minutes.
Carolina Objects to Umpire.
To begin, Coach Lamson, OF North
Carolina, raised an, objection TO I'm
pirc j. A. Massie, who formerly play
ed with the University of Virginia
team The coach said that some of
his players objected to Mr.. Massie
because he was Virginia man, but
after considerable discussion it was
agreed that Mr.. Massic should Off
ciate, rs the manager of the Carolina
team had written the athletic COM
mittee of the Merchants Association
accepting him as the umpire for the
game.
Carolina Wins Toss.
Carolina won the toss and chose to
defend the north goal. This gave
them the advantage OF the strong

On April 29th last the Oregonlan
published a special industrial edition
devoted exclusively to the exploita-
ton of Oregon. II probably contain
ed more special and miscellaneous
information about Oregon than any
one publication that has ever been
issued. IL is peculiarly useful and
valuable to the homeseeker, because
II gives the latest and most reliable
information about so many different
subjects that the homeseeker is ma
turally interested In. Almost every
department OF industry is specialized,
and both descriptive and statistical
information OF highly valuable
character is given extensively and In
entertaining form.
Residents OF Oregon who know its
advantages as compared with the
congested and depleted east, and who
still have friends back there whom
they would like to see here enjoying
the good things OF this favored state,
can aid in splendid work without
cost and very little effort. II you
think your friend would be inter-
ested in knowing more about Oregon
and might eventually become a valu-
able citizen, send his name and ad-
dress to the general passenger agent
OF the Oregon Railway & Navigation

edition, with a complete summary
OF the several subjects treated. care

be the means not only of doing your

TO stimulate the growth and prosper
ity OF Oregon.
Don't forget that commencing
September LIST and continuing daily
for two months, tickets will be on
sale at almost every railroad station
in the east to all points In Oregon
and the northwest at what has coms
TO be popularly known as "eolonist
