oHEMAwA WILL HAVE
NO TEAM THIS YEAR

The Chemawa Indians have decided
not to enter team in the Salem. Port.
land relay race this year, as they have
done for the last six years. While the
Indians have lost the last two races to
the Portland Y. NJ. c. A. team, the In.
dians won all the previous races. What
the reason is for not entering the race
this year is not known.
In lieu Of the Indians the Portland
Y, M. G. A. has asked the Salem Y. NJ.
c A. and Willametet University to en-.
ter teams for the race. Whether this
will be done IS yet undecided. The mat.
ter was up for discussion at the annual
spring banquet OF the Business Men s
class Of the association last night and
is being considered by Dr. Sweetland,
coach Of the Willamette athletics, and
by the management Of the track team.
The regular date Of the race has been
during the first week Of May, but II
Willamette decides to enter it is prob.
able that the contest will be set at a
later date, in order to give the team a
good training chance.

have come to the conclusion that
1t is my duty to ask you to consider

IL do this with a great deal Of
hesitation, because I do not wish to
interfere with settled practices or
with reasonable expectations Of
those who usually go to enjoy the
Inauguration, but it has come to
wear the aspect of sort Of public
duty because of the large indirect
expense upon the government incl

have ceased to be necessary to the

eating committee and find out who

solutely no reason for any panic
We have the biggest crops in his

them. I can't understand why any

ooBURN MAY LOSE HIS JOB.
But Kansas Will Have Another Place
For Its Press Agent.

Topeka, Jan. 1.-THE legislature
may undertake to legislate F. D. Co
burn out of his present job as sec
rotary of the state board of agri-
culture by abolishing the board.
That doesn't mean, however, that
the state is going to lose Mr.. Co
burns services. Not even the most
pie-hungry Democrat would think of
that.
The idea behind the present move
ment to abolish Coburn's job means
merely to transfer Mr.. Coburn to
the state agricultural college and to
do away with the duplication Of
work by the college and the state
board of agriculture, thereby saw
ing the money the latter department
costs. Mr.. Coburn would get just
as much salary and do just the same
work.
]. w. Carnahan, Republican repre-
sentative from Clay Center, is ad-
vocating the change. He is a wealthy
farmer, always attends the farm In
stitutes and agricultural meetings
and is student of all Kansas farm
problems.
