NO FOOTBALL CHANGES
"Game at Present is Satisfactory, ,
Says Chairman Hall.

BOSTON, Jan. 30. No material
changes will be made in the football
rules for next season, is the opinion
of Edward X. Hall, chairman of the
intercollegiate Football Rules COM
mittee.
Il have heard and received no COM
plant against the present set of rules
governing football he said today.
"As far as know, no changes will be
recommended at the meeting in New
York. Itseems to be the almost unani-
nous opinion of football men and of
the intelligent football public that the
game at present is satisfactory.
Until it has had much more COM
plete development, it would hardly
seem wise to consider any fundament-
al changes Wherever and whenever
there has been any discussion of the
merits of the game as played last fall .
there has been no suggestion that any
basic change would be made in the
rules"

to Leave Town II Released
from Custody.

AS they were about to be arraigned
before Judge Morgareidge in the pro-
bate court yesterday to answer to the
charge of vagrancy, Roy Otney and
Clair Bricker volunteered solution of
their difficulties by promising to leave
Moscow 'for good" if they be released
from custody Their suggestion was
straightway accepted and they were
"seen off" by a member of the city
police force.
1t is said that both of the young men
have been giving the police consider
able trouble during the past two or
three months and that it was deemed
far more experient to adopt the settle
ment which they suggested than to
impose jail sentence.
The boys were hauled up on delin-
quency charge in which two girls were

was learned the girls were of legal
age. It is alleged that the girls ex-
pressed a desire to be united in mar

QUARANTINE ON INFESTED BELT
Proclamation by Governor Halnes
Prohibits Importation of Nursery
Stock.

BOISE, Jan. Ex-Governor Haines
has issued the official quarantine
against the shipment into Idaho from
Il counties in the pear thrips infested
belt of California, of nursery stock
from these counties. After an in
vestigation State Horticultural In
spector c. X. Macy decided that the
Quarantine should be placed on the
California stock and he so recon-
mended to the state board of horticul-
cent conference here. The proclama-
ton is as follows:
| "Whereas, it has been established by
recent investigations that the following
counties in the state of California are
infected with the pear thrips (Euthri.s
lpyrD San Benito Merced, Stanislaus,
Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, San Mateo.
Alameda. San joaquin, Sacramento,

Costa, Napa San Francisco, Marin, So
noma, Mendocino, Lake and Colusa;
and,
Whereas, there is danger of the in
PRODUCTION of this pest into the state

counties:
Therefore, it is hereby ordered and
declared that a quarantine be and is
hereby established against the impor-
tation of any nursery stock into Idaho

any nursery stock from the said in
tested district is delivered in Idaho in
violation of this quarantine order, it
shall be the duty of the deputy hort
icultural inspectors or other quaran
tine guardians to Immediately deport
such shipments, or destroy them by
burning both container and contents,
in a manner that will not permit of the
escape of any insects. All expense in

SEATTLE GETS A JOLT ON
REGIONAL BANK MATTER
NOW PROBABLE THAT PACIFIC NORTHWEST
STATES CANNOT GET CENTRAL BANK.
CAN'T MEET LAW PROVISION
Total Capitalization of Banks in District Not Suffic
lent to Comply With Terms-Plum Will
Fall to San Francisco.

SEATTLE, Jan. 29.-While Secretary
OF the Treasury McAdoo took pains to
inform the audience when the region
al bank. hearing opened today for the
presentation of Seattles claim for a
bank, that no significance should be
attached to any question by him or
Secretary of Agriculture Houston, it
was evident that the whole Pacific
coast is to be included in one district
with the central regional bank located
at San Francisco.
The proposed plan to embrace
Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Mon
tana in one district received a blow
when President Backus, of the Nation
al Bank of Commerce, representing the
clearing house association, admitted
there were little trade relations WITH
Idaho, Oregon and Montana.
A further setback was experienced
when it developed from questions by
the organization committee, that even
if the four states named were includ
ed in one district, the capitalization
of the national banks in the four
states would only total $43 900, 900, |
and would therefore be able to sup
ply only $2,500000 of the necessary
$4 900, 900 under the six per cent terms |
of the law.
Governor Ernest Lister and Eugene
Wilson of Tacoma also spoke. The !
hearing will be concluded this after
noon after which the committee will
go to Portland to hold a session there
tomorrow.

HOW TO PRUNE TREES
State Horticultural Inspector Gives
Out Valuable Information.

Responding to many requests from
! farmers who wish to do their own
pruning but have not the necessary
! knowledge of methods the state hor-
ticultural inspector is arranging to
give instruction to all who apply at
the office in person, says the Boise
Statesman.
A number of trees will be installed
in the office, properly trimmed and
an attendant will be at hand when
ever possible to explain the system
approved by the inspector. Many
farmers who may not be in the fruit
growing business exclusively or who
raise only enough for their own con-
sumption, feel that they cannot af-
ford, or that they prefer, for other
reasons, to do their own pruning, and
it is for these persons, primarily, that
the department has made this inno-
vation.

Young Man Makes $40 with Fake
Stacks OF Quarters.

A well dressed young man of engag
ing manners worked a brand-new film
fam game yesterday and got away
with $19 before his clever plan to sep
arate accommodating strangers from
their money was discovered: He ap-
peared first at the box office of Ham
merstein's Victoria theatre in Times
square, just after the matinee rush.
and producing twenty-dollar bill, said
to get $40 worth of quarters. The
young man at the box office showed two
stacks of quarters, each stack contain
ing $40, over the little counter in front
of him. These quarters were rolled in
to packages by machinery, and at each
end of the package quarter was ex-
posed to view SO that no mistake would
be made in the denomination of the
coin.
The young man accepted them CRATE
fully, dropped a pleasant remark about
the "bill' at the theatre, and stepped
away. A moment later he was back
again, still smiling.
what am l thinking off, he said.
81 was told to get $40 in quarters and
$40 in Dimes"
The ticket shower, after explaining
that he could not accommodate with
dimes, gave the young man back a ten
dollar bill, and accepted a package
plainly showing quarter at either
end Later, when he opened the pack
age to make change for customer, he
found that it contained steel bar with
4 quarter fastened to either end.
The ticket shower hurried over to the |
cafe which the young man had mem
ioned.
Ibid you send clerk after some
luarters??" he asked anxiously.
What are you giving us?" respond
ID the cashier. you mean you sent us
messenger after $40 worth of quar-
ers."
Then they compared notes, and the
asher examined his packages OF 1
hange. The well-dressed young man
f engaging manners had, it turned
ut, worked the same fiim-fam game
n him.
The police were notified. They didn't Ia
ecognize the crook from the descrip- i
on given. His version OF the finn
am game was new one to them, it
as said. y

Early Spring Predicted.

Uncle Tom Driskell killed a ground
squirrel on the G. H. Sutton ranch
near Moscow yesterday. Ordinarily
this would be of no consequence, but
to kill a squirrel in January is of
especial interest because it harks to
the coming of an early spring and
an open winter. Mr. Driskell says the
earliest he recalls the appearance OF
squirrels in this section in many years
is late in February.
