One of the best attended meet
ings of a public character held in
this city in recent years was call
ed last night at the court house
for the purpose of discussing the
railroad situation and hear what
the delegation that had returned
from Bend on Thursday evening,
where they met Mr.. Strahorn,
had to say. While all the COM
mittee was not present at this
meeting, some of them made
statements Of saeir observations
and convSs sations with Mr.. Stra-
horn and others. Itwas of course
understood that nothing definite
was done at this meeting so far
as this city is concerned but pos
sibiIies were discussed as to what
could be done toward the desired
end of securing railroad connec-
tions to Burns.
Mr.. McCnnnell was called up
on to make a report of the trip
but he had no notice of this meet
ing until late and stated that he
was preparing a detailed report
to submit at the meeting Of the
Commercial Club tomorrow even
ing and President Brown did not
press him for any remarks.
C. H. Leonard talked for some
time of the Strahorn plans as well
as outlining the general business
of the meeting at Bend. The
particular purpose of this was to
revive the Central Oregon Dew
elopment League with view of
that organization getting behind
the development proposed by Mr..
Mr.. Strahorn. according to Mr..
Leonard, and this was accom-
plished with enthusiasm. There
were in the neighborhood Of 70I
outside delegates at this Bend
meeting and Burns was represent
ed by Is. They were Loyalty
treated and had the privilege Of
meeting Mr.. Strahorn personally
and going over the railroad situa-
ton with him in a private way.
Mr.. Strahorn proposed to send
his own engineers in to inyesti-
gate the Sage Hen route as soon
as he possibly could and also
proposed that if this was not
too expensive a peice of road
to talk business with the Burns
people about a direct line to this
city from the west. Whether
this would be a through line, or
rather place Burns on the main
through line, there was differ
enee of opinion among the dele
cation, but at any rate the pr,
position was gone into with Mr..
Strahorn and he was asked how
soon this line would be built pro-
vided the necessary funds were
raised and If the line from Bend
TO Burns would be built first.
He replied that it had been the
intention to build to Klamath
first but the Burns contingent
said we would not consider that
except under condition that the
line from Crane Creek Gap be
extended to this place during the
coming season, in that case we
would wait a reasonable time for
he Western connection.
This met with general approy-

Harncy County Boys
Prominent in Athletics

The Times Herald Is proud Of
the prominent part taken by our
local boys in college athletics.
Both Rye Smyth and Leo Laythe
have made good on the o. A. c.
foot bali team. The following Is
by a sport writer In the Oregon
ian and his comment Is upon the
game to be played today.
Good tacklers are a. absolutely
necessary to a powerful football
team as sturdy legs on a draft
horse. A good tackle does not
have to be as heavy as a guard
and should have more weight
than an end. but he must be acs
tive. and IL he combines activity
with weight his team had the
ideal combination.
Thus il is that when the Greg
on Aggies and the University of
Oregon meet next Saturday 10
their annual state championship
clash at Eugene, the fans viii be
treated TO as rare q battle be-
tween two ideal tackles as the
conference has seen In many
months.
These two rival giants are
Johnny Beckett. tackle on the
University of Oregon team. and
Leo Laythe, Of the Aggies. Beck
ett weighs about 1856 pounds and
Laythe somewhere between 200
and 210 pounds.
Prior to entering Oregon Beck
EFT was a fullback on the crack
Washington High team in Port
land, while Laythe broke In at
Corvallis three years ago unher-
aided and almost unknown. He
was first stationed at guard and
after 9 year In this position
Coach Stewart discovered his
class and shifted him into the
more responsible tackle berth.
On Saturday Laythe and Beck |
EFT will play opposite TO each
other on the line, and it ought to |
be a battle well worth seeing. |
Beckett Is perhaps a little more
versatile than Laythe, but there
isn't much difference between
them. Without question these
two are the best tackles la the
Northwest conference. and we
doubt II there are two better men
In the entire country.
Applequist, of Washington
State. comes nearest to them In
The Pacific Northwest.
When his team has the ball, q
.ackle Is supposed TO play q CLOSE
formation" game, and while on
he defense the tackles duty is
% play a 'looser, wider game,
generally outside the attacking
md.
Thus the offensive tackle gen.
rally finds himself lined up
against the defensive guard. and
o the end and a halfback are al
oted the task Of getting the de-
ensive tackle out of the way.
For this reason there will not
'e an endless round of personal
ontact between the two big fel-
ows Saturday, but there'll be
lenty of opportunity, In any
vent. to give the fans rare line !
n their respective ability. ]
In the Miehigan-Aggie game
.aythe's opposite tackle was the
urley negro, Smith. and from {
llaccounts Smith hasn't recover !
d his beautiful sepia complexion B
