EAGLE CREEK CAMP
GROUNDS ATTRACTIVE
agile Creek Camp Grounds Attract
Visitors From Thirty States.

The Eagle Creek Camp Grounds on
the Oregon National Forest attract
ed $4,000 visitors from thirty states
and dozen foreign countries during
the outing season of 1916. according
to T. H. Sherrard. Supervision of the
Oregon National Forest. This Is the
first season these camp grounds
have been easily accessible to the
public.
The grounds have been developed
under a carefully devised plan of the
Forest Service to make them both at
.ractive and convenient to campers
and visitors. Nearly one hundred
eampsites with safe fireplaces and
other conveniences have been pre-
pared. Excellent water has been pip
ed to the grounds and a sewer system
installed. A public comfort station
is centrally located where it is &C
cessible from all parts of the grounds.
A short loop road from the Columbia
Highway makes it possible for auto
mobile parties to drive directly to a
campsite. thus making the packing of
equipment and supplies unnecessary.
A Forest officer was stationed at
the camp grounds during the season
who assisted visitors in finding a sat
isfactory campsite and parking place
for their machine. He saw that
fire was kept burning in a large con-
crete stove for the convenience of
parties in making coffee or
cooking food without having to start
a fire. A supply of fire wood was
kept ready for visitors use and gar
bage cans we're conveniently placed
about the grounds.
Among the fifteen thousand visi-
tors at these Camp Grounds were par
ties from Alaska, Canada, China,
France, Germany, Hawaii,
Japan, New Zealand, Scotland, and
Switzerland, besides thirty of the
States of the Union.
In preparing for the winter, the
pipe lines have been disconnected
and the comfort station locked. The
tent occupied by the ranger, as =
temporary headquarters has been
taken down. 1t is planned to build
a permanent ranger station on the
grounds the coming season.
A topographic survey of the
the grounds has Just been made, and
q largo number of new camp sites on
the west side of Eagle Creek are
planned. An automobile bridge a.
cross the Creek is part Of the plan to
make the new campsItes more &C.
The trail up Eagle Greek has been
for four miles and half
to a bridge site a mile and half
above the Punch Bowl. Here bridge
will be built so feet long and 1876
above the Creek. It Is expected to
complete this trail to Wahtum Lake
next season.
The excellent cooperation of visi-
tors in keeping the camp grounds in
a neat and attractive condition is ap-
preciated by the Forest officers who
have charge of the grounds.
Because public camping grounds
of this sort meet a real need, says Mr..
Sherrard, the Forest Service is plan
ming to develop several suitable sites
on the National Forests of Oregon
and Washington in 1917. Accord
ing to present plans, a camp ground
near Rockdale ON the Snoqualmie
Forest will undergo the most extern
sive development next year.

Tv Cobb of the Movies
Bv GRANTLAND RICE

from any observation, much to the as
constituent of the moving picture forces
in charge of the scene.
"The most noticeable thing about
Cobbs work." said Director Ridgewell,
was this I've never had to tell him
more than once what wanted DONE |
had an idea that would have to take
half my time in drilling him for various
scenes in regard to expression and posi-
ton. But, on the contrary, he seemed
to have an advance bunch as to what
was wanted, and the pictures will show
that as a movie star Ty is something
more than $3.50 hitter. In addition to
this, he is horse plus an elephant for
work. Twelve hours a day is nothing
to him, and when the rest of us are
pretty we'll worn out Cobb is ready for
the next scene. | believe the fellow
could work twenty hours a day for
week and still be ready for overtime"
The one feature that has held all con-
cerned in check, including the scenario
writer and the director, is the matter
of love making. Ty was willing enough
to engage in mortal combat with any
where from two to ten husky villains.
He was willing enough to dive head first
for the plate or to jump through win
dow, but when it came to one of our
best known national pastimes, love max
ing. he baked with decided abruptness.
Despite the attractiveness and the
personal appeal of the heroine, Miss
Elsie Macleod, Ty was keen enough to
figure ahead, not what the spectators
might think of it, but what Mrs. Tyrus
Raymond Cobb of Augusta, might
think. The love making episode, there
fore, while more or less thckly inter-
spersed, had to be handled in precisely
the proper way to meet Tvs bashful APP
proval.
Cobb had no intention of forsaking
baseball for the camera. Once, he says,
will be entirely sufficient to round out
his artistic career in this field. But in
his one start he has shown that if it
ever became necessary he still has at
least one more way of making good
living, a statement that will be believed
by those who see Somewhere in
Georgia"

HOR the matter of twelve years
II Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the first


X Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the first
Il citizen of Georgia, has proved
that when it comes to facing pitchers
he has no rival The fact that he was
beaten out this last season means little
compared to the fact that over twelve
year span he has averaged over 40
points beyond all competition.
1t may have been that facing such
pitchers as Walsh, Johnson, Ruth and
others has acclimated Ty to facing any
thing under the sun, even moving pict-
ure camera. At any rate, when Director
George Ridgewell, of the Sunbeam Mo-
ton Picture Company, lined Ty up in
various attitudes before the camera he
was astounded at the way the star ball
player handled the new job.
These paragraphs should be enough
to break the news gently that Cobb,
wearying of competition with Speaker,
Jackson and Collins through so many
years, has decided to go out and give
battle to Douglas Fairbanks and Francis
X. Bushman. Not for any extended
campaign, but for just one outburst of
histrionic art.
Ty is the outstanding or reigning star
in a new photo play to be put forward
known as Somewhere in Georgia"
In this play our trusted hero is up
against it on various occasions, but at
the crucial moment his trusted batting
eye is still focused at the old $3.50 range,
always properly adjusted.
The first chance that Director Ridge
well had for seeing Cobb in action was
at the close of the recent season in st.
Louis. Here the director was treated
to his first surprise, when in a scene
where Ty was called upon to read an i'm
portant telegram received at the bench,
he was given a rocky start upon mis- new
road. 1t was the first time Ty had
faced the camera, and when he stepped
out to open the telegram, members
of both the Detroit and ST. Louis teams
swarmed around Ty, just out of camera
range, to indulge in all the light repartee
and personal chit-chat available in
order to obtain possession of Cobb's
goat But Ty went through the entire
act as if he had been 100 miles away

Cobb's team has game with another
local aggregation on Saturday after
noon and one of the most interested
spectators at the field is scout from
the Detroit American League Baseball
Club. After watching Ty, the bank
clerk, in action, the scout persuades him
to sign a contract and make ready to
leave for Michigan.
Ty is overjoyed and hastily runs to
his love to tell the good news. His joy
is turned to gloom, for his sweetheart
informs him that it is not her wish that
he leave home, adding that he must
choose between baseball and her. Ty
tries to make her understand, but his
pleadings are in vain.

some scenarios had him diving OFT

about ready to give it up. Ty is not IN a
position lust yet to take chances OF re-

named Hughie Jennings also had some
thing to say on the subject.

him could better understand what he

appealed to a personal friend in the

way. and the result of two weeks hard
work was the photoplay Somewhere in

Ty Cobb-the one in the PLAYS en-
ployed as bank clerk in little Georgia
town, and when he is not busy bending
over set of ledgers he is playing ball
with local team. He is well liked in
the town, because many of the games
which the home team won were won in
consequence of the timely hitting OF
Cobb. But then something else comes
into the life of the star player. He dis
covers that the bankers beautiful
daughter is in love with him.
Like all reel stories, especially those
where love plays a prominent part,
Cobb finds that the cashier of the bank
also has designs on the heart of the
bankers daughter. Cobb tries many
tricks to offset this seemingly unsoli-
cited attention, but the cashier still
