REALTY : ALERS
TO ORGANIZE
HIGHER STANDARDS TO RESULT
Group of Valley Good Boosters Will
Ask Advice from Portland
Realty Board.

About 20 real estatefdealers of Hood
River met Tuesday evening in the
Commercial Club rooms -and took the
first steps toward the organization of
Realty Board in this city. The move
ment is one which has been talked of
at different times but now the definite
steps have beenT taken and it is eX-
pected that it will enable the various
persons who do a regular real estate
business to have a much better under
standing with one another and to do
business along lines which will greatly
aid in the proper development of the
town and valley.
The meeting selected j. Adrian
Eppng to act as chairman and Louis
Henderson as secretary. They kindly
invited the Glacier representative to
listen to their deliberations. All the
real estate dealers present agreed
that if certain general rules of
practice could be established and lived
up to there would be a mutual advan-
tage to every one of them. A Realty
Board organized along the general
lines followed in other cities was dis
cussed and the secretary was instruct
ed to communicate with Secretary
James 0. Rountree, of the Portland
Realty Board, inviting representatives
of the body in the metropolis to come
here in the near future and assist in
organizing the local board. 1t is under
stood that the Portland board will be
pleased to accept' this invitation and
the dealers expect to have gthem as
soon as convenient. A committee was
appointed to outline the Iby-laws and
perpare for the local organization and
they will make report when the
Portland men come.
Before the close of the meeting
general discussion of commissions and
cooperation took place. Various sug.
gestions and plans were talked over
for the benefit of the committee. At
the close of the meeting all present
signed their names as wishing to be-
come charter members and il is under
stood that number of others will be
secured for the organization before it
is launched.

TEAM LOSES BUT
PLAY Is BETTER

The Hood River foot ball team show
ed much improvement Sunday in the
game with st, james College over the
demonstration of football they had
given two weeks previous and they
managed to score on their opponents.
The team has been reorganized and
under the leadership of Howard
Hartley is putting up fast game.
The locals were much lighter Sunday
than in the previous game but they
were correspondngly faster and they
showed little more practice.
The game was played at the grounds
on the Heights and the Vancouver
lads many of whom were not regular
members of the college eleven, got
away for three touch downs and II
points in the first quarter of play.
Our boys were also busy and at the
end of the first period there were six
points to Hood Rivers credit. The
game in the last three periods was
nip and tuck contest and although the
visitors had about ten pounds more
beef to the man the Hood River boys
successfully defended their goal
against further scores making the final
score IT to 6. The gains of the Van
couver boys were made mostly by
forward passes and trick plays, while
the locals were successful in making
yards on cross tackle bucks.
The Hood River lineup was:
Cobb, center; Grant, left guard; Gar
rabrant, Price, right guard; Sexton.
right tackle; Kent, left tackle; Moe,
right end; Hartley, Capt, left end;
J.kCoshow, Bell, quarter back; Clark,
left half; IL. Coshow, right half; Reed,
full back. Another game is scheduled
for Sunday with the Wabash lndepen-
dents of Portland and it is expected to
have the new grounds on the fiat below
the depot ready for the game.

called upon the subscribers to the
publicity fund to pay 20 per cent
installment and they are anxious to
get this money by November 25 to
meet heavy current expense in con-
necton with the many exhibits which
are being made over the country.
They have only called for 80 per cent
up to this time and if they have made
the regular monthly calls there would
have been 70 per cent called by this
time. Every subscriber should pay
promptly on the call in order that the
Club may not be embarrassed.
