WHAT THE SPARKS SHOPS, UNDER UNION
PACIFIC CONTROL WOULD
MEAN TO NEVADA

During the period in which the Union Pacific
controlled the Southern Pacific road e., from 1901
to 1872 great deal of construction work was done
on Southern Pacific and Central Pacific lines. The
Lucin cutoff the Great Salt Lake was built
the shops at Sparks, Nevada, were constructed
many line changes and double tracking, both in
Nevada and California, were completed or con
tracted to be built; new steel bridges were built
over the Sacramento and American Rivers; the
line from Alameda to Santa Cruz, via San Jose,
was changed from narrow gauge to standard
gauge; the line from Fernley, Nevada, to West
wood, California was constructed; the line from
Natron to Oak Ridge was built; the suburban lines
on the east side of the Bay of San Francisco were
electrified; road was constructed from Sacra-
mento to Walnut Grove; the Weed Lumber road
was purchased and extended through Klamath
Falls to Kirk
All of this work was done while the Union Pa
cifc controlled the Southern Pacific. 1t shows
conclusively that the Union Pacific has been the
greatest constructive company operating the South
Pacific at any period since the road was built.
To come nearer home and speaking of the Sparks
shops, statement can be made, which cannot be
controversial that from the time these shops were
built by the Union Pacific Company up to 1913
they run to full capacity, doing all overhauing
work on Salt Lake Division power used west of
Carlin, as we'll as considerable work on engines
from the Sacramento Division.
Commencing in 1913 and gradually up to 1918,
the Southern Pacific Company, then being "di-
vorced" from the Union Pacific, proceeded to send
all Salt Lake Division power to Ogden shops, send
ing more and more each year, until at the end of
the year 1918 all Salt Lake Division work had been
taken away from Sparks.
Since 1918, up to and including the present time,
no "Salt Lake Division power" has been over
hauled in the Sparks Shops, and the little work
that has been done here has been upon engines
from other divisions, mostly engines that had made
their mileage but upon which new fire boxes were
not needed. This work has kept the shops open
under Southern Pacific control but the men have
for most of the time been working but two or three
days week and, since the the war, never over
five days week.
Under Union Pacific control, there were $50 men
employed in the Sparks shops, working full time.
Under Southern Pacific control, there have been at
times $50 men employed but working only two to
five days week.
If the Union Pacific were now operating these
shops to capacity, it would take approximately
1000 men to operate them, all working full time,
on account of the eight-hour law now being in
effect, making necessary to employ three shifts
of men instead of two
This is concrete statement showing what the
effect will be if the Union Pacific should be so
fortunate as to secure control of this road. It
means much for Nevada. 1t means progress and
pogress for all the country covered by the South
ern Pacific in this state.

Clemson College, Feb. ID. Friday
night the new court here was the
scene Of a large quantity of basket
ball. At seven o'clock team from
the "Stenos" of the community met
the "scrub faculty" team, with the
faculty men attried in tight-fitting

the best basketball they have cxhibi-
tea on the home floor since the Geor-

varsity "Y" game, but in the pre-
sence OF dozen or so spectators the
Clemson scrubs scrimmaged against
a team from Central and emerged at
the big end of SO to Id count.
A large crowd of cadets and cam
rus people gave the young ladies
much applause when they appeared
on the floor. The "scrub- b-faculty"
team appeared in very vampish at
tire, with white skirts, silk stockings,
powdered faces, painted lips, and puff

line-up consisted of Misses Elaine

Hart and Sally Corbett. The young
ladies CD of the "scrub faculty"
were the Misses Jones, Nimitz, Sher-
man, Carr and Gunter. The game
went merrily along, more on the or

much holding, etc. In spite Of their

first because the scrub faculty play
