REVIEW OF ACTIVE WEEK

The feature of the week has been
the great gathering of the CONNER
cial bodies from Genesee, Lewiston
and Moscow at Lindley Hall for the
purpose Of advocating the building
of the missing link so as to assure
an all-Idaho route The sentiment
was overwhelmingly in it's favor al
though few dissentients thought an
agreement could be made with the
Whitman county commissioners. The
meeting resolved on state aid thru
Engineer Hail. A very important
movement was the raising of sub
scription of $4,000 in Moscow to as
sure the rebuilding of the Greek let
ter fraternity house. Another import
ant matter was the fact that the first
post was laid for the new electric
White Way. The opening of the
wading pool called attention to the
fact that the kiddies wanted dressing
rooms. Another important matter
was the announcement that if 35
prospective students could be OBJ
tanned business college would be
started here by a man of experience
from another state. The announce
ment was made that for the first
time in the history of the county
publication of the Indebtedness was
made by law. improvements at the |,
court house drew attention to the !
fact that the county records not only |
needed protection from rain but from |
fire also. The Farmers Union Ware
house went on record for receiving
10000 bushels of wheat in one day at |
its warehouses. Registration at the
hotels showed that commodities for
the fall and winter trade had been
active In the city and county ac-
cording to the. commercial travellers.
In short the reaction is setting in and
prices generally are about to take a
drop.

that has been chosen for Troy, for it
is fact that in many cases the little
towns are the biggest 1t isn't the

make big town, but the way in
which that town puts over its enter

is the inspired idea back of the slo-

WOODS IN TITLE FRAY

New York, DC. 2o.--New York
pocket billiard fans are 10 have n
rare treat Wednesday. Thursday and
Friday nights. when l.. Ralph Green
leaf, pocket billiard titleholder, risks
his title in match with Arthur
Woods. The matches will give New
Workers their first opportunity Of wit
Messing Greenleaf in title match, all
though he has played numerous ex.
hibitions here.
Greenleaf is by far the greatest
pocket billiard player the game has
known, and has held his title with the
same consistent brillianey that char
acterlzed Willie Hopes playing In the
halkline class for years.
He is a surprisingly swift player
and makes his shots with an abandon
that fairly takes the breath from
spectators.
He has won q games as champion
and has never been defeated since he
first took the title IN Philadelphia
nearly three years ago.
Woods ia a less brilliant and more
careful player than Greenleaf. He has
not the style. the natural spectacular
playing ability that Greenleaf POSSESS
es. but he has finished az runner-up to
Greenleaf in tournaments Greenleaf
can afford to take no chances with
him.
The title match will be at a5o points
in blocks OF $50 each night.
