WALTER CAMP Is
MUCH PLEASED

New Haven, Conn. Feb. 7-Walter
Camp. athletic adviser at Yale, stated
last night that he thought the change
In. the. rules made by the football rules
committee was the one move that
could be taken to make the rules of
the game permanent. In speaking Of
the changes he said:
"The changes had to be very mark.
ed In order that the Offensive team
be given n better chance. When the
game Is taken up again the plays will
he more brilliant, the scoring viii be
easier and there will be more run
ming. We have allowed the blocking
of the ends going down under a kick.
This ia an important step. It al
lows the backfeld man taking the
catch to make some very pretty PLAYS.
The increase of the value Of a
touchdown from five to six points is
another step in favor of the running
game. The elimination of the twenty
yard zone is In my mind. a splendid
move toward the general simpliflcation
of the game.
THE changes were necessarily
marked. but they help in the general
aimpliication Of the game. We have
been hoping each year that rules from
the time they were changed would be
permanent. With the present changes
the game will bring out more running
ana - generally stmplided." :

NO CHANGES
FOR MILWAUKEE
Consolidation Of Two Sys-
TENS Will Not Affect Pres
ent Arrangements

SEATTLE, Dec. 21.-After January
1, 1918, the railroad systems of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul and
the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget
Sound will be consolidated under the
older name. Positive confirmation of
the report to this effect came in a
telegram from President H. R. Will
liams, of the Chicago, Milwaukee &,
Puget Sound to George H. Hibbard,
general passenger agent. yesterday
afternoon. President Williams is now
in Chicago. where a meeting of the
directors of the two lines, who are
the same people, will complete the
details of the change.
Simply for convenieee.
The consolidation is made simply
to avoid duplication of work in the
management of the Milwaukee sys
tenn The Chicago. Milwaukee &
Puget Sound was incorporated as a
separate company to build the Mil
waukee's extension to the Pacific
coast The line is now complete and
in operation, and there Is no further
need for maintaining two separatt
corporations to manage the lines
which have the same ownership. AT
ter January the Chicago, Milwau
kee & Puget Sound railway will prac
tically cease to exist.

BIDS ASKED ON
BIG LUMBER DEAL
Government Calls For Ten
ders for Lumber for Phil
ippine Islands

TACOMA, Dec. 21.-Bids for one
of the largest calls for rough mer-
chantable lumber placed by the feder-
al government in recent years are
requested for the supply of 3,317,737
feet of Douglas fir or Oregon pine for
use in the Philippines. Bids will be
opened January 20 at II a. m. in
the quartermaster's Office at Seattle.
The government has been doing a
large amount of concrete construc-
ton in the Philippines and at Pana-
ma the last few years and for this
reason the calls for lumber have not
been so large as formerly. The lum-
her called for by the present speci-
fications will be used for the inter.
ior work of many concrete building
and for temporary construction.
All the cargo mills are said to be
pretty we'll filled with orders at pres
ent and it depends to some extent on
the time allowed for delivery if some
of the smaller concerns will be able
to quote prices.
"The time is certainly short" said
John Savage of the United States
quartermaster's Tacoma Office yester
day, "but I believe that proper con
sideratlon will be given by the gov
&n -
The call for bids was made yes
terday and 20 there has been little
time - yet for any discussion of the
proposals by Tacoma firms.

WAPPENSTEIN IS
REFUSED PARDON
Governor Announces Glenn
ency Would Not Be Justi-
fled Pardon Denied

SEATTLE, Dec. 21.-Governor NJ. E.
Hay has announced that he had de-
MED the application for the pardon
OF Charles w. Wappenstein, former
chief of police Of Seattle and former.
" chief of detectives of Cincinnati,
who is serving a sentence in the state
prison Of from three to 10 years for
receiving a bribe from the keeper of
. dis0rderly house while at the head
Of the Seattle police department.
Governor Hay said he arrived at his
decision to deny the application after
= careful investigation of the record,
which satisfied him that nothing in
the proceedings justified clemency at
this time. The prisoner is in good
health, according to report from the
auperintendent Of the penitentiary.
Il see him often. and he appears to
wo to be really in better health than
a& the time he was received At the
1nstitutian." ID the superintendent's
00eial statement. Ill.,. .r.l
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1912-12-23

The petition for Wappenstein's par
don was signed by many in Seattle
and other cities of the state.
Wappenstein was convicted July 10,
1911, and began serving his sentence
May 4, 1912, after the supreme
court had denied new trial.
Wappenstein' administration of the
Seattle police department was the
principal issue in the recall campaign
in Seattle two years ago when Hiram
c. Gill was ousted from the Office oi
mayor.
Throughout the political campaign
it was charged repeatedly that Gov
ernor Hay intended to pardon Wap
penstein. This was officially denied
but it was used against him by his
political enemies. The formal appli
cation and the formal refusal, how
ever, have set the matter at rest fol
the time being at least.

THEY ALL COME BACK
Mr.. and Mrs. r. J. Hits Move Back
to Grays Harbor After a Trial
Of the Simple Life.

After a trial Of farming and coun-
try store keeping for a few months,
r. J. Hits decided the simple life
was not for him. 1t was too quiet;
he prefers the mad, giddy whirl OF
city life and the fogs of Grays Har-
Dor, and he and Mrs. Hits, with their
lares and penates, moved back today.
For the present they occupy a house
they own in Hoquiam, near the Aber-
deem line where they will remain un-
til spring.
Mr. Hits sold his farm and store
to Bert Morse, and, in the deal, he
took over the Morse residence proper
ty, on the southeast corner Of Sec
on and Broadway which he will pro
ceed to improve by moving the house
to the south end of the lot, and erect
ing an apartment house, 100x100 fee
on the corner. Mr.. Hits expects tc
begin this improvement in the early
spring.
