ASHLAND TAKES FIRST
FOOT BALI. GAME
: FROM X. FALLS

Ashland high school won iii
first football game of the season
last Saturday from Klamath Falls
high school team, the final score
being 16 to 6. Due to its being
the first game, each team had theiI
troubles in holding to>the ball Al
times football plays were worked
that would have done credit to
post-season players.
Ashland outplayed the Falls
team In all phases OF the game and
should have run up much larger
score. One touchdown, worked
on very clever forward pass, was
> not counted on account OF a pen
atty.
The game was a good one all the
way through and exciting enough
to give the crowd their moneys
worth, both teams showing plenty
of pep and fight. The Ashland
team is made up Of new material,
and OF the kind OF stuff that will
keep Ashland school, as it always
has been. to the front in football.
Klamath Falls, getting their
choice, took the south goal, the
Ashland team kicking. Ashland
soon recovered on a tumble and
kicked goal from place, making
three points. On the next kickoff
Ashland received and on fine
end run of 80 yards made the first
touchdown of the same. Failing
to kick goal, the score at the end
of the first quarter was TO 0 in
favor of Ashland.
klamath Falls came back strong
and was able on fake end run
to put over a touchdown. They
failed to kick goal and this made
the score 8 to 6 at the end of the
second quarter.
Early in the third quarter Ash
land received one of the Falls for
ward passes and made the second
touchdown for Ashland. Kicking
goal this time made the score at
the end of the third quarter 16 to
in favor of Ashli nd. The last
quarter each team had its ups and
downs, but neither was able to
put the ball over.
Perhaps where Ashland showed
its greatest strength was in the
second and fourth quarters. Klam-
ath Falls, by peculiar result OF
fumbles, had eight downs to put
the ball over and had less than
ten yards to go on the first but was
unable to put it over until the
eighth down. The same thing
happened in the last quarter but
this time the Ashland team threw
the Falls team for a loss from
their one yard line.

Z Equalization OF interchange il
the only solution of freight cal
shortage in Oregon, according to
G. +. Richardson, superintendent
OF transportation, Southern Pa
cific compay, who says, in this
matter OF concern to local ship
pers:
THE reason for ear shortage OH
Southern Pacific lines in Oregon is
plain. For many months past
there has been a heavy movement
of commodities, especially lumber,
from oregon to eastern points
routed through Portland. Many of
the cars moving IN this manner
are those that have previously
been hauled into Oregon from Cal
ifornia and from as far south as
Texas.
I'm order to maintain the sup
ply of cars in Oregon it is plain
that the lines taking the loaded
cars out through Portland should
return an equal number of cars,
either loaded or empty, from day
to day-in other words, they
should equalize the interchange.
Because of their failure to do SO
we have lost 1890 cars in the past

EXPORT FREIGHT L
RATE EQUALIZED

Equalization OF the import and
export freight rates, placing Pa
cific Coast ports on competitive
basis with Atlantic and Gulf ports,
has been accomplished and an
nouncement of the new tariff has
,been made by the traffic men OF
the Western railroads. A copy of
the new tariffs has been received
by Manager Hudson of the Port
land traffic bureau
When railroad rates were in
creased last August there was a
great differential between the
charges for import and export
freight originating east of the
Rocky mountains an dthroughout
the big producing area of the Mis-
mississippi valley in favor of At
lantic and Gulf ports. The result
was that much OF the freight
which should have been routed
through Pacific ports for export
to the Orient was shipped to At
lantic and Gulf ports and thence
through the Panama canal. The
difference in these rates ranged
from 1882 a ton on automobiles
to S1.S4 a ton on iron and steel.
When the new tariff equalizes
the rates on import and export
freight routed through Pacific
ports with the rates in such freight
routed through Eastern and
Southern ports, they are still some
what in excess of the old freight
rates. Z But since they are equal
ized, Pacific Coast ports will re-
,eive their share of the business.
The new tariffs are being pub
ished by the railroads and an
louncement soon will be made
when they will go into effect,

INTEREST IN PARK
TO PARK CONVENTION

( Communities on the route of
the National Park-to-Park high
way including Ashland, and west
ern cities generally. have a direct
commercial interest in the proper
representation, through delegates,
at the forthcoming convention of
the National Park-to-Park high
way association, in Denver, Nov.
1l-13, in which the National
Parks Service and the American
Automobile association will also
participate. This assertion, made
by members OF the official party
dedicating the $3.50 mile contin-
uous scenic wonder way, is sub
stantiated by Pacific coast states
which are familiar with tourist
business.
Automobile tourists bring an
average return each of $5 day
to merchants, hotelmen and dis
tributors OF gas and oil in com
munities visited in their cross-
country travels. There are
7459,607 automobiles in use in
in the United States, according to
available statistics, averaging one
car to each fourteen persons.
Ben Blow, manager of the good
roads bureau Of the California
State Automobile association, de-
clares that s1O,OO0,OOO a year is
spent in California by automobile
tourists from other states, aver
aging $40 a day for a party of
three or four persons. The Unit
ed States government, prior to the
inception OF the high-price period,
made an estimate based on three
persons in a car, allowing $12 a
day as fair average expense. Re-
vision to conform to present day
costs would make this at least $j
a day for each person.
Greater accessibility in reach
ing the twelve national parks in
nine western states is one motive
for defining the National Park-to-
Park highway, bringing increased
pleasure travel, and
later on industrial and agricul-
tural development. Tourists now
have the choice of going the
northern route, through Wyoming,
and Idaho to reach the
Pacific coast tier of states, and
through Arizona and
New Mexico to Colorado, the
point, or reversing the
rider of travel.

AEROPLANE REPORTER
Is VERY LATEST

BALTIMORE, Md.-The "Aer-
oplane reporter" Is here. He is a
member OF the staff of the Balti-
more Evening Sun and he flies a
biplane, recently purchased by tina;
paper, as regular part of its
newgatherlng equipment. The
air reporter" is Lieutenant Will
liam d. Upton, former United
States army aviator, who shot
down seven German planes and
one boche balloon on the French
fighting front. He waa also cap.
tured and held prisoner for a time
by the Germans.
The Evening Sun purchased the
plane to test out itg practicability
for quickly covering important
news events at points in Maryland
and neighboring states not easily
accessible by train, boat or auto
mobile, and also for taking unus-
ual pictures.
Lieutenant Upton on September
1, flew thirty-five miles out to sea
off the Delaware coast in an effort
to photograph the submarine So,
but the sunken craft was between
b5 and 20 miles cut and Tipton
had positive Instructions not to go
more than 20 miles out, because
of the inability of an airplane to
land" on water.
Aerial photographs of all sec
tions of Baltimore have been ta- |
ken from the plane and printed
in the photOgrayure section of the .
Sunday Sun. Among other pho
tographs made was one of a train
wreck and another of the battle
ship fleet in the Annapolis harbor.
One of the important uses for
which the plane is intended is the
covering of news events on the
Eastern shore Of Maryland. The
geographical location of Baltimore
in relation to points on the East
ern shore makes the gathering
Of news there by staff writers
slow because OF the time required
10 reach any of the towns by or
linary means of travel. With the
plane in operation, practically
avery place on the Eastern shore

PROGRESS TOWARD
CHRISTIAN UNITY

GENEVA, Oct. 5-Great pro
gress toward Christian unity
among the denomination of the
world as means to "better
world is said to have been made
by the world conference ON Faith
and Order, held here recently.
Robert H. Gardiner of Gardiner,
Maine, secretary OF the American
Episcopal church, spoke of il as
the most import.nt gathering
of Christians held since the schism
between the Eastern and West
ern churches a thousand years
ago.
Men of forty centuries" said
Mr.. Gardiner have represented
here all churches throughout the
world that confess Jesus Christ as
the Son of God-made man, except
the church of Rome.
There has been frank discus
sion OF the differences between
them, but in the earnest desire
to understand and appreciate each
other and to abandon the spirit of
controversy. The minds of all
have been given to the effort to
reach that visible unity of Chris
tians which is the only evidenc
potent to convince and convert the
world to Christ.
"The meeting has grown to a
closer brotherhood and our hope
is sure that a great step forward
has been taken toward Christian
unity"

DON'T TRADE YOUR
LIBERTY BONDS

Secretary Fuller of the Com.
mercial club has received from the
secretary of thet reasury of the
United States, the following com
munication in regard to the prac-
tice of exchanging Liberty Bonds
for merchandise:
"It has been brought to my at
tention that numbers of mer-
chants throughout the country
are offering to take Liberty Loan
bonds at par, or even in some cases
at premium, in exchange for
merchandise. While | have no
doubt that these merchants are ac-
tuated by patriotic motives, am
sure that they have failed to con
slider the effect which the accept
ance of their offers would have
upon the situation
We are making the strongest ef-
fort to have these government
bonds purchased for permanent
investment by the people at large,
to be paid for out of the past or
future savings of those who buy
them. Purchases thus made not
only result in providing funds for
the use of the government. but
they also effect a conservation of
labor and material.
"When the bonds are ex-
changed for merchandise, II de-
leats the primary object Of their
sale, it discourages thrift and in
,reases expenditures.
"In addition to this, such bonds
when taken in exchange for mer-
'handise must in most cases be
Immediately sold In the open mar
iet. This naturally tends to de-
'ress the market price OF the
,Onds.
81 hope that the merchants OF
he country. upon a more care
al consideration Of this subject.
will discontinue their efforts to
ell merchandise and take Liber-
y bonds in payment"

est fast on record heretofore was
that undertaken by Succi, an Ital-

After reaching his fortieth dav

GOOD SEED TO

GET GOOD CROF
The good potato hill for seed
is the one that is vigorous, has
no disease in top or tuber, and
has a good number OF fair sized
potatoes smooth and true to type.
BY marking the hills now and ex-
amining the tubers at harvest time
the grower can get the very best
seed his crop holds. This will
help get a good crop of marketa-
bic potatoes next year.
