"Wa can get federal aid in devel-
oping navigation of the Arkansas rfv-
err if we develop necessity for it," was
declaration of United States s. ma
tor James p Clarke before the con-
vention this morning.
Congress has made an effort 10
emancip9te ITSELF from the wastef IL
ness of public moneys on uss'ess
projects" said Senator Clarke, "and
we must hope there is something in
this project The laws of comm cree
govern the situation, and merely pre-
pairing the river for commerce never
will accomplish the desired rssult.
The project of narrowing tie Ar
kansae river channel to 300 teet and
using revertment work is qr"'bitive
9nd cannot be considered. according
TO Senator Clarke. He said 'r"t tn
report of engineers on this proposed
method obviates the possibility Of ITS
accomplishment. The cost, he said
as estimated by the engineers, would
be as follows:
From the rivers mouth to Pine
Bluff, $6,O00,0O0; Pine Bluff to Little
Rock, s3,712,0OG; Little Rock to Oar
danelle, $500. 900; Dardanelle to
Fort Smith, $500, 900; Fort Smith to
the mouth of the Grand, $5,199.000.
"This estimate was made after
survey of the river in 1909" said
Senator Clarke. "La,er, after went
to congress. another survey was
! made. and it was believed that the
most satisfactory and possible way tc
improve the channel would be
through the use Of dredge boats.
believe we can solve 1t by usir
two boats now on the river, and we
have enough money to operate them
until the next appropriation is made.

Why Tolerate (;atarTh ?

You have noticed, no doubt, that any cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the flow of mucous amazes you that such objectionable matter could find lodg- ment in your head. To ignore this catarrh when the cold subsidies is wrong because it continues to slowly injure the delicate Things of the nasal passages and clog them up.
 To correct catarrh, cleanse the nos trils frequently with solution of warm water and salt, insert vaseline on re- tiring, and take spoonful of Scott's Emulsion after meals for one month. Scott's acts through the blood to feed the tissues, and contains soothing glycerine to check the inflammation and heal the. sensitive membranes.
 Scott's is pleasant to take.

YALE CHANGES CREW QUARTERS
Blue Navy Headquarters Will Be at
 Derby.

New Haven. Conn, Dec. IA trans fer of the headquarters of the Yale navy from New Haven to Derby, Conn.,, eight miles away, is indicated as a probability by the announcement tonight that the Yale rowing commit tee has reported favorably on four mile course on the Housatonic river as a substitute for the present course on New Haven harbor. The shift in crew quarters will probably be made this winter and, according to present plans, will entail the transfer on barges of the Adee boathouse, erected at a cost of $100,000 several years ago as me- morial to George Adee, a former Yale oarsman who died recently.
 The change in crew quarters has been urged principally because of un- feyora ble weather conditions. at New Haven harbor which have retarded the work of the Blue crews. The new course lies just below the city of Der by. At that point there is little cur rent and rough water is exceptional It can be reached from New Haven by trolley in 29 minutes.

Since the high school football sea- son of Eastern Connecticut has come to close, many interested followers of the schools havs teen pondering over an all-Easterr Connecticut high spondent of The Bulletin, who has seen every high school eleven in this part of the state In action several times through the season, has select ed an All Eastern -C Conneeticut team.
 In his selection he places five Nor wich Free Academy players, Jackson, center, Wilcox, guard, Henault,. tackle, J. Hull, quarterback, W. Stanley, half back.
 Left Ends selections follow:
 Let us start with left end. For this position have chosen Rollo of Bulke- ley High. He is fast man on cover ing punts. a fierce tackier and has a particular knack of his own of sitting through an interference and getting his man. At right end would put Beebe of Vocational because of his ability to break up plays, a sure tackler. and ex- cellent on handling a forward pass.
 As for tackles, there are two who stand in class by themselves, name ly, Henault of N. F. A. and Feeley Of Bulkeley. As a defensive player. the state. He frequently breaks through the line and nails the runner before he Is well under way. As his partner I have chosen Feeley of New London mainly. on account of his offen- sive play. He Is heavy man and can open fine holes for his backs. He is also a good defensive man.
 For guards, Wilcox of Norwich and May of New London are best. Both on defense and offense they outclass their mates. Wilcox with his weight was impossible to move and he also

OREGON AGGIES UNABLE TO
 SOLVE SYRAcUSE'S ATTACK
New Workers Used Fine Assortment of
 Plays-Score 23 to O.

Portland, Ore, Dec. With the aid of bewildering assortment of plays, the Syracuse university football team defeated the Oregon Agricultural col lege here today 2S to 0. The eastern aggregation got the jump on the Ag- gies the moment the latter kicked off and scored two touchdowns before the western players got their hands on the ball. With one exception, the AggieS' defeat today was the worst they have suffered this season. The Aggies had gained considerable prestige earlier in the season by defeating the Michigan Aggies.
 Perfect execution of numerous com plicated plays gave the victors the ad- vantage on the offensive. On the de- fensive their line tossed back interfer- ence and downed the runner with clockwork regularity.
 In. the last quarter, however, honors were almost even. The Oregon team partly solved Syracuse's plays and made god gains on forward passes in terspersed with line plunges. White and Schlater, Syracuse's giant guards, and the entire backfield played a stel- lar game. For the Aggies, Abram at right halfback was his teams main stay,
