NEXT TUESDAY
Summoned to Open Defense
Against DisIOyalty Charg-

BRYAN TO FOLLOW
AS NEXT WITNESS
Committee Not Authorized
To Investigate Motive or
Animus of Attackers.

WASHINGTON oct. 12.-La Fol-
lette was summoned to open his de-
fense against disloyaIty charges at a
meeting of the investigating commit
tee next Tuesday morning. Former
Secretary Bryan will probably follow
La Toilette as a witness. The COM
nsittee wrote La Toilette. declaring
they desired to give him a hearing to
learn the accuracy OF his various
statements. The letter declares the
committee is not authorized to inves-
tigate the motives or animus OF those
attacking La Toilette.
La Toilette particularly requested
to be heard on these points. The COM
mittee expects La Toilette to demand
a broader scope OF inquiry than that
mapped out.
Plans to Turn Tables.
La Toilette evidently plans to turn
the tables on his accusers. The Wis
consin senator is a skilled cross ex-
examiner and viii attempt to turn
interest from himself to the Witness
es against him. He will claim he's
heing persecuted and denied free
speech He will renew his charges
against the press.
Gets Government Data.
The committee has obtained data
from the state department bearing on
the accuracy of La Follette's state
ment that the administration knew
the Lusitania carried munitions.

BIG PREPARATIONS
ARE UNDER WAY FOR
0. A. C.-IDAHO GAME

With the idea of making the o. A.
C.-Idaho game here on Saturday,
October 20, the success which the
first intercollegiate game in eastern
Oregon should be, President Tallpan
of the Commercial association has
appointed a committee of business
men and former college men TO CO.
operate with the management of the
two teams in the making of prepara-
tions.
The committee consists of DIR. H.
J. Kavanaugh, Clarence Penland, r.
T. Bishop, George c. Baer. L. G. Fra
zier, Charles Bond, Leon Cohen.
Carl Cooley. James S. Johns w. Z.
Lowell. Hans Struve and Merle r.
Chessman, chairman. The committee
will meet this afternoon at O'Clock
to make definite plans.
Realizing that the game. if made
a success, will probably mean an in
tereolIegiate game for Pendleton ev-
cry fall, the committee viii lmake an
endeavor to attract a large crowd for
it. The county will be placarded and
the advertising campaign will extend
all over eastern Oregon.
Ia Grande Is Coming.
That the event has an attraction
much beyond the limits of the city is
certain. Charles H. Reynolds of La
Grande. former star quarterback on
the o. A. c. team, in letter to local
friend today. states that big dele
CATION will come over from La
Grande. Similar reports come from
every town in the county. An effort
will be made to secure one and a
third round-trip fares from out-of-
town points.
To Entertain Teams.
Plans are being made to entertain
the visiting teams after the game. If
not contrary to training rules, a
dance will probably be
given in the Happy Canyon pavilion
and it is probable that the teams will
be entertained at dinner
The scheduling of the game here
is in the nature of an experiment and
upon its success depends whether an
annual event of the kind can be ar
ranged.

cording to n telegram received this af-
ternon by the East OregOnian from

HEARTY BREAKFAST is O. K.
French Medical Professor Urges Euro
peans to Follow Example of
Americans.

Bordeaux, France.-The American
breakfast Of ham and eggs, liver and
bacon, beefsteak or other meat, vege-
tables and porridge, as a substitute for
the meager European morning meal, is
recommended for France by Doctor
Bergonie, professor of the Bordeaux
medical faculty.
Doctor Bergonie regards this substi-
tuition as one of the reforms most like
ly to relieve the economic situation, by
providing rational nourishment and
avoiding great deal Of waste
He bases his argument on the fact
that man requires sustenance most at
the beginning of the day when he is
about to make his effort, whereas in
Europe he takes his principal meal
when his days work is half through,
when he is half tired out and is in
capable of so digesting his meal as to
give him proper support for the rest of
the days work.

Below the sector of the German re-

cessful. On April 16 they started a
great offensive which resulted in the
dominating Ladies' road' falling into
their hands, besides important posi-
tions in Champagne. Their prisoners
the first two days totalIed 1900. On
May 6, along the Aisne, they took 6,1OO
captives and gained points from which
they looked down on the foe, as the
British did farther north.
1t should be noted here, however,
that the French losses were severe,
resulting in the replacement of Nivelle
as commander in chief by Petain.
The last twelvemonth in the Italian
campaign has witnessed a series Of
costly reverses for the Austrians, but
the Italians have been prevented from

Italians Take Gorilla.
On August 8, 1916, the Italians
stormed the stubbornly defended Go

taking about 10000 prisoners, and
they followed this success the next
day by seizing the city of Gorilla and
increasing the number of their cap

WILL BE MUSTERED IN sooI
Ninth Battalion of Negro Infantry To
Be Included.

Columbus.-It is not possible to place
ders which have been received here
by Colonel julius A. Penn, chief mus
tering officer for Ohio, in regard to
the muster of units of the national
guard into federal service. Whether
these orders in some way involve the
fate of the Ohio division is not known,
but apprehension concerning the sit
uation is expressed. One Of the or
ders relates to the Ninth Battalion of
negro infantry, which was ordered to
be mustered in as the Ninth Battalion.
Work on this task was started in Day
ton and Springfield. The companies in
Columbus and Cleveland will be mus
tered in soon.
The drafted men will doubtless be
called up for examination early and
plans are being made by the local ex-
emption boards accordingly. The fed
eral district exemption boards, which
are to sit on reviews are to be organ
| lied at once to be ready to hear ap-
peals. 1t has been gratifying to state
officials who have to do with the draft
that every step has been taken with
good will and that response will be
made freely. There will be numerous
questions, but the downright efforts tt
evade the draft are likely to be few il
number. One of the minor annoyance:
has been the attempt of a few sons o
| influential fathers to secure easy po
sitions after it has been found tina
they were in the first call. The state
house has answered with the hard ant
stormy stare and has reminded then
that this is a, republic and that al
alike, rich or poor, must bear the du
ties and responsibilities of citizenship
