FOR STATE FAIR

Expenditures in connection
with the operation Of the Oregon
state fair were $107,100.92 foI
1922, according to a financial re-
port completed by ]. e. McClin-
took, veteran cashier for the state
fair board.
The grand total expended by
the fair board in 1921, including
the operations Of the fair and i'm
proyements to grounds and build

For 1922 the general expenses

proyements to buildings and
grounds were $111,508.45.
In his report to the fair board
Mr.. McClintock said the increase
in administrative expense for
1922, when compared with that
for 1921, was due to the appoint
ment Of superintendent OF puAd-
ings and grounds at an annual sal
airy Of $3.50.
The method Of handling the
state fair funds under an act
passed at the 1921 session of the
legislature was branded las un-
businesslike by Mr.. McClintock,
and he recommended that the law
be repealed at the next session. |
Under the law in question there is
an exchange Of funds between the
state treasurer and the fair treas
urer, Mr.. McClintock said, which
results In much confusion.

FOLWELL LIKES
NEW GRID RULE
Navy Football Mentor Saws
Game Will Be Decided
More On Merit

MULLICA HILL, n. j.. Mar. IL
Robert c. Folwell, coach of the Naval
Academy eleven. sat perusing the rule
changes last night, as probably did
other coaches all over the land.
Well said Bob finally. 'the team
that wins game now will win it
more squarely on merit. There will
be no bad accident such as the miss
ing of goal after touchdown to cause
one team TO lose out in a tight game
II might have been a good thing to
have eliminated the extra point alto
gether, but | think this would have
caused too many tie games.
Its going TO make the game more
interesting from spectators view
point and harder from a coach's, be-
cause that one point is going to be
stressed to the limit"
Folwell doesn't agree with critics of
the plan that it's going to delay the
game any. Some had figured that it
would take three minutes to run the
play off and that this would make the
spectators watch the play at least a
half-hour longer in a high-scoring
contest.
Nothing of the kind" blazed Bob,
this play can be made in a half
minute. In fact, it can be even faster
than the goal after touchdown when
all kinds of elaborate preparations
and delays are made by the men,"
Folwell pointed out one impressive
fact about the new rule that has miss
ed the attention of most coaches.
Its going to put a premium on a
drop. and placement kicker. Naturally
a team will kick instead of rushing the
ball or forward passing.
Its a cinch that if a team had
good play through the line from the B.
yard line it wouldn't give it away to
score that one point, and the same
holds for good pass formation. Rush
ing the ball is surely out of the ques-
tion between two fairly matched
teams, for it usually takes four downs
instead of one play to go that last five
yards. and then it's seldom made
against good team"

DR.. JOHN R. STRATOA
PLEADS ADOPTING MORE
RIGOROUS PREACHING

NEW YORK, Mar. 14.-In a letter
addressed TO discriminating New
Workers." Rev. John Roach Straton,
pastor of Calvary Baptist Church. TO-
day pleaded for the overthrow of coal
pit pussyfooting" and .he adoption of
more rigorous methods of preaching.
Ii was from DR.. Straton's pulpit that
William A. Brady, the theatrical man.
ager. defended the morals of the stage
and moving picture actors in an open
debate with the pastor. Rev. DR..
Stuart MasArthur. pastor emeritus.
recently withdrew from the congrega-
ton after criticizing his successor for
sensationalism.
There is no use in trying to heal
the cancer of sin with soothing syrup"
DIR. Straton declared in his open let
ter. land it is idle TO sprinkle cologne
water upon the public iniquities of a
rebellious race"
To counteract the appalling loose
ness and rottenness of the time" he
asserted, every real preacher must
be a sensationalist."
The clergyman declared that if it
was a crime for a preacher to be a
sensationalist, then Amos, Elijah,
Daniel, Peter, Paul, and "even the. di-
vine Son of God himself would have
been convicted as criminals in their
day"
