Gated condition. A new, shiny auto
mobile in the hands Of backslidden
Kelley graduate is harder to keep in

faster and farther than a fat party
shooting the chutes in q one-piece

Skidding is caused by a total lack
OF front teeth in the rear tires. All
new tires come equipped with sharp.
prying teeth which sink into every

road. preventing side sway and pro-
ducing great variety OF duh red con-

however, these teeth disappear entire

which will not catch anything but
tacks and shingle nails. This en-

energy toward twelve-foot embank-

direction than a stout girl on a new
pair Of roller skates. ..... .-.
, For the benefit Of new automobile
owners who have never encountered
a genuine, hand-buffed skid we would
say that It can be recognized with

ton in the stomach, similar to the
sensation enjoyed by an ocean tourist
on the second day out. In order to
skim the cream off this sensation, the
automobile should be driven around

Immediately after sleet storm. An
expert driver can skid for block and
a half in this fashion by using only
two legs of the automobile. with the

CHTEF PROBLEM OF CONGRESS.

lLOunCll BluffS NOnpareu.1
If congress meets adequately the
wishes of the great majority Of the
people Of this country during the
present session, 1t will set itself dill
gently to work and accomplish three
distinct ends. D.
First and foremost it wall start a
program which will organize the
physical, financial and industrial re-
sources of the country in such man
ner that they will be available for
service in a military way if need
should arise in the future.
Second, this end VIII he accom-
plished without creating that form Of
militarism which produced the present
war in Europe.
Third, In bringing about these ends
| the government should manufacture
! its own war or defense materials, or
| at least arrange matters in such man
ner that the country will not be sub
ject to extortionate measures from
private manufacturers.
Supplementary to these provisions
congress should act ture:: the sn9ges-
ton of Senator Cummins and take
whatever steps may be possible to
| bring about permanent world peace.

tion. The best method Of preventing
skidding Is to allow the machine to
crawl along on It's hands and knees,
but most people prefer to wrap ropes,
discarded underwear and steel chains
around the hind wheels. Chains are
the best preventive, and when at

WASHINGTON MAY.
LOSE GIANT GUARD

Washington State College athletic
prospects will suffer % severe blow if
Ronald Fishbaek, last season = giant
football guard, is obliged to withdraw
entirely from competition in all forms
Of athletics due to the breaking down
of his arches.
3 According TO reports, the big athlete
has been ordered to discontinue al
forms of athletic activity, which will
mean that his services will be lost to
the baseball and track teams, as well
as the football eleven. Although weigh,
ing approximately 200 pounds, Fish
back is credited with running the hun
dred yard dash in 10 l.5 seconds and
the high hurdles in 10 2,5 seconds. He
has been figured on by Coach Boiler
as sure point winner in the various
weight events at the conference meet,
He was promising candidate for first
base on tho baseball team.
Should Fishbaek,s ailment prove as
serious as il now is believed to be, II
is considered most unlikely that b"
would be able TO play football next
fall when Coach Dietz issues the call
for candidates.

matches in the Wan and Dough

been played of. On Saturday after.
noon, Erie Knudsen and Guy Rankin
met Albert Horner Jr. and Harrison
Rice, ON the Knudsen courts. An four
men played strong game, but Horher
and Rice had gained some valuable ex.
perience in their match with Charlie
Rice and Jimmie Spalding, which they
put into practise, and they came out
ahead after the first two sets, with o
score Of "a and 81.
VI The second round took place on the
Lihue courts on Sunday afternoon,
when Frank Morrow and Charles Dole
met Gregor Greig and A. Reginald
Glaizyep. The men were all more or
less in bad shape and the game was
not as interesting as il might otherwise
have been. They all struggled brayely,
in spite Of their pilikias, and in the
score of 90 and 6,3. Edward w. Car.

Member Of Chamber Urges Cog
nizance Of Magoon Charges
and Thorough Investigation
COMMITTEE PREPARED I'd. 81
TO REPORT ON MATTER
Favors Franchise Amendments,
With One Exception, and Con-
sideration Is Postponed

The trip OF Attorney J. Alfred Ma.
COON to Washington was discussed in
the chamber Of commerce meeting yes.
terday, the matter being brought TO the
attention of the members by W. H,
McInerny, who said that he thought
the chamber should take some action
on the statements made by Magoou,
if they had any merit, and look into
things as they were. He thought that
it would not be right for the chamber
not to take action on the proposed
charter of the railway, II the charges
made by Magoon were true, and to
find out what there was to them, he
proposed an investigation. - o.
Committee Ready To Report .,
This brought the explanation from
Secretary Raymond @. Brown that the
public utilities committee Of the cham
Der had the matter of the proposed
charter under Investigation and was
ready to approve the, amendments, as
they we're passed by the utilities com
mission, with one exception, This ex-
ceptiou, he said, was the reduction OF
the amount of capital stock which was
to be issued blythe company without
cash being put up for it.. ~ 49,:
in the draft, as agreed to by the
railway and the commissioners, at the
last meeting, $I,700,O00 was stated AZ
the limit. while the amount mentioned
in the draft of the charter sent to the
Governor by the commissioners, from
the executive session. made the limit
81, GOO. 900. With this exception tn,
members of the chamber = committed
wore ready TO approve the charter.
Difference In Figures An Error -.
W. r. Castle, who was present at the
meeting, said that he thought the diff
fernee in the figures was a typographi
cal error and that on the return of the
utilities commissioners from Hawaii
they would explaiDythe matter.
II was the sense of the meeting that
when the members dad had O chance Il
go over the eharteE, after the report
was made on II, they would be in
position 10 reach Washington by cabl,
before Magoon had had an opportunity
to do anything rejecting on the utih
tics commission, or against the charter
Investigation Is Urged .,..
Continuing his request for thor
ough Investigations of the Statement
made by, Magoon, MeInerny said tina
| the matter of a charter for the RapiC
Transit was of too much importance h
the city and the chamber, to be passet
over without some action being taken
If the charter proposed was right, thei
the chamber wanted TO approve il ant
work for it; if what Magoon SAT-
about it was true, then the ehambe
certainly should not approve it.
