NEW LEAGUE
FOR COLLEGES
SUGGESTION FOR INDEPENDENT
ASSOCIATION MEETS WITH
APPROVAL.

From present appearances, the AS
ISOLATION OF Pacific Northwest colleges
is to be reality and that before the
new wear begins. c. \. Macarthur
formerly manager of athletics at the
University of Oregon has taken charge
of the movement and has sent letters
TO the presidents of the leading col
leges of the Northwest asking their
opinions about the matter.
President Penrose of Whitman coi-
lege has replied that he is heartily
in favor of such a move and will do
what he can to co operate in it,
The other athletic authorities at the
local college are also much interested
in the matter and all have expressed
themselves as heartily in favor of the
new association.
From Pullman. Willamette, Oregon
and Washington come favorable re-
plies and although Corvallis and Idaho
have not vet been heard from, it is
thought they will concur in the move
ment.
The plan is to bind the colleges to-
gether with a system wherein all will
have the same general system of eli
gibility rules, regulate schedules, de-
eide disputes and settle championships.
The plan is that the association shall
affiliate with the A. A. T. and let the
P. n. A. go on it's way undisturbed.
Such an organization as the one
proposed was organized several years
ago but fell fiat through covering too
wide a territory The old association
extended as far east as Montana and
was too cumbersome to stand. What
is now proposed is a well regulated as
ISOLATION with a few simple rules free
from ted tape.
The presidents of a number of the
northwest colleges are outspoken in
favor of the plans for q new associa-
ton and it is quite certain that the
November meeting viii be thorough
ly representative one.

WIRE TALK CAUSES ROMANCE
PRETTY OPERATOR ACCEPTS
PROPOSAL AND WILL BE
MARRIED IN kAHLOTUS.

COLFAX, Sept. pa romance or
Monday when Miss Maybelle Young,
for the past two years manager of the
Western Union telegraph office here,
locked up the place and took the train
to kahlotus to accept a proposal of
marriage which had come to her over
the wire from that station. The man
who was ticking off messages to Miss
Young when Cupid got tangled up in
the wires and trsnsi ormed them into a
proposal of marriage, is William Was
son. an operator for the Oregon Rail-
road & Navigation company at Kah-
lotus
The story of the romantic cOurtsnip
was told to J. Corner, agent for the
Pacic Express company, who has an
office in the same building as the
telegraph office. Miss Young confided
the story to him when she locked up
the telegraph office last night and said
she would not be back. When asked by
Corner why she was not coming pack
she told him the story of the romance.
! He questioned the truth of her story,
but she failed to come to the office to-
day and in response to inquiries Cor
ner told what lad been impaired to
him by the fair operator when she left
last night
Until the strike of the operators
. there was not much direct wire COM
munication between COlfaX and Kan
lotus Since that time there has been
change in handling of business and
the operator at Kahlotus has had to
send a volume of wire business TO
Colfax with Miss Young at the other
end of the wire.
Then one day. at any rate that is the
| impression Miss Young left with the
man she told the story to, there came
| softly ticking the words:
Will you -----"
| But what's the use the affair was
! to kahlotus to keep her part of the
bargain. She told Corner that she
was to be the operator at Kahlotus
and that her husband was to be the
agent. so they will be married and in
business together.
