Hug and Carlton
May Settle Row
,OfSaleln, Eugene

The state board of athletic con-
troll has refused to consider the
controversy between the Eugene
high school and the Salem high
school, as a result of which Eu-
gene has broken off athletic re-
lations with the locals, and has un-
officially suggested that some set
tlement be made through a con-
ference of George w. Hug, super
intendent of Salem schools, and e.
f. Carleton. superintendent at Eu-
gene, 1t was announced this morn
ing by Principal J. C. Nelson, of
the Salem high school.
A formal suggestion to that eff
feet will probably be made at a
meeting of the state board to be
held in Portland Saturday, 1t is
believed.
Following up the suggestion
made by the state board, Superin-
terdent Hug yesterday communi-
Gated with Superintendent Carleton
by telephone. Mr.. Carleton's reply
was vague and non-commlttal, it
was stated. Whether ne will agree
to the conference is not known.
Severence of athletic relations
between the two schools came as
the result OF an alleged injustice
which Eugene claimed to have suf-
fered at the hands OF Salem at a
recent football game held in Eu-
gene. No specific charges were
ever preferred by Eugene, and To-
cal students have demanded a
showdown of facts.

Cupper Defended BY
Banker Witness At
Committee Hearing

State Engineer Percy Cupper was
declared the most satisfactory and
most capable state engineer he
ever worked with and the cost
plus contract for irrigation systems
the most ideal of construction con-
tracts, by Ralph Schneelock who
underworld the bonds and arrang-
ed the contracts for the bulk of
Oregon irrigation districts as rep
resentative of the Anglo-London-
Paris bank and other California
financial Institutions, and who is
chief beneficiary of the existing
system. at the public hearing of
irrigation bills held Tuesday eve
ming before the house irrigation
committee in the Senate chamber.
Elimination of Mr.. Cupper as
state engineer and the, substitution
of a hydraulic engineer with con-
structive experience, he declared,
would utterly ruin" irrigation
prospects in Oregon and set back
the irrigation program for years.
Mr.. Cupper. who made a vigorous
defense of his administration ana
a bitter assault upon his critics,
coincided in these sentiments, de-
MED that irrigationists are back of
the bills, declared none of the dis
tricts affected approved the meas
ures and asserted that progress of
irrigation would be seriously i'm
paired IL his removal was accom-
piished.
The hearing was a lively affair, |
replete with personalities and in
of Interior motives. The
CHEST of the Warren Construction |
was dangled before the
we'll packed lobby and a far-retch-
ed effort made to correct ex-Gov-
ernor West with the present bills,
for WHICH Representative Burdick
assumed full responsibility. Repre- !
sentative Gallagher. who presided,
was heckled repeatedly by Mr. Cup |

Physical Test

Meets Defeat

Mrs. Kinney's bill, II. B, SS, re-
quiring both male and female to
furnish medical certificates before
marriage licenses shall be issued,
was championed by Woodson as a
cause of prevention of degeneracy.
Lynn of Multnomah also favored
the measure. Davey asked consent
to change in title to conform to
statutes. Those oposing the meas
ure explained their votes as a re-
Election against the character Of
the women of oregon. The bill was
indefinitely postponed.

per and Representative Sheldon.
who championed his cause. and
forced to admit that he had not
heard from his constituents on
the measure. He declared that he
mad acted in behalf of the welfare
OF the state as he saw it.
Mt Schneelock proved an ora
tor OF ability and made a most
plausible plea. He dwelt upon the
deslrability of Mr.. Cupper as state
engineer, a position requiring "ju-
dlciaP abilities rather than con-
structive or engineering skill. He
detailed the history of the Warm
Springs and other projects he has
financed, explained the difficulties
in selling irrigation bonds, the lack
OF capital in Oregon to finance
such large projects, the necessity
of securing proper engineering tai
ent and capable contractors TO fin
ish any undertaking begun.
From quiz of opponents Of the
irrigation bills, the meeting became
an inquisition of the authors, Join
ed in by the spectators, and Repre-
sentatives Burdick, Gallagher and
Overturf were forced to personal
defense Of their position and the
denial of Interior motives. They
the opposition to the meas
ure due to propaganda from the
state engineers office and by Mr..
Schneelock, and declared that the
proposed changes would not ma
terially change the law, but would
the interests of the dis
tricts, and would not affect the
value of securities. They declared
that under existing conditions
from 80 to 40 cents of every dol
lar of the irrigationists money
went as profits to bond peddlers,
and contractors and
