for Two Touchdowns While
Beachites Get But One.

The Toledo high school football
team decisively defeated the Newport

score of ~ to before a large and
enthusiastic crowd of fans. The Now
porters outweighed the local lads by
big odds but were unable to take
advantage of 1t. The field was in
very poor condition due to the heavy
rains an more resembled duck pond
than football grounds. However the
boys stuck to their sloppy task until
the referees whistle announced the
end of the contest. At times when a
pile" was made in the dash for a
down" it was necessary to aid the
guys" underneath to their feet so
fast were they stuck in the mud. Tho
the weather was cold drizzly the large
crowd OF fans stayed to the end and
Enthusiastically "rooted" for their
favorites in the contest.
Although every member of the To
le'o team played excellentiy Lytle
and Arthur Wade are deserving Of
special mention for their part in the
battle. Wade carried the bal over the
goal both times for his teammates
and one Of these was made by long
end run in the first half. He was
tackled by several Of the opponents
but proved to swift on his feet to be
stopped.
The wiDning of this contest gives
the championship Of the county to the
local high school.

Right on the heels of an open at

that these gentlemen intend to press
to a conclusion the House impeach-

written letter to Representative
Volstead asking that copy of the
charges be supplied to him so that he
may aid in bringing the hearing to a
head.
Keller and Woodruff, backed by
Representative Royal c. Johnson, OF
South Dakota, openly allege that the
Attorney General has sat firmly on
the war fraud lid, that he has failed
to prosecute flagrant cases of al,eg
ed robbery OF the government and

corruption in government and that
the nation is not getting any aid along
this line from the department of jus

war frauds has been in the hands ol
the department more than two years
This inactivity on the part of Mr.
Daugherty is not due to lack of evid

prosecutors have declared that IL
many cases the evidence is sufficient
to proceed to trial without further in
vestigation. Mr.. Daugherty himself
more than a year ago officially stated
that he was in possession of evidence
sufficient to establish criminal con
spiracy in case involving millions O
dollars. Attorney Genera. Daugherty
has not yet presented this case to {
Grand Jury or instituted civil sui
for the recovery of stolen money.
From time to time Mr.. DaugKerty
has widely proclaimed his intention
to take action against the war graft

has 'flared up because Of his inaction
he has attempted to cool It off with
more promises"

grades averaged 43 cents Let through
th5 association as compared with the
prevailing country price OF 35c. Sales
were made by the association through
out the period from May until Oct

member is the averages pool price for
each grade resulting from the orderly
marketing of the mohair during these
months. Statistics gathered by the as
sociation from mohair growers, coun

1922 Oregon clip of mohair sold ou..
side the association averaged less than
33c. Some 400 mohair shippers within
the association lecevied a diffeHsntial
of 10c per pound more than the out
side price as a result Of orderly coop

of this grade was about 56c gross.

MILLER C0NQUERs
PROFESSOR KAN7HE
At WRESTLING GAME
Local Matster "Pins Shoulders
Of Young Hercules" in Two
Straight Falls Before Scant
Audience.

Smiling Charlie Miller local mat.
ster, defeated Prof. Kanthe of Mich.
igan, IN two straight falls at the Leg,
lon hall last Thursday evening. Mil
ler gained the first fall ia IA minutes
by the use of crotch and deadlock
hold. He gained the second fall when
he clamped on one of his famous
double nelson holds that the "touted
Hercules" was not able to break.
The match was fast and furious
from the very start and provided an
excellent exhibition. Kanthe put up
a weak protest when the referee gave
the last fall to Miller, but the "bie
boy" was yelling hes breaking my
neck!" when the referee patted Mil
ler on the shoulder.
The preliminaries were exception
ally good, consisting of two wrestling
matches with fast boys participants
One of the big hits of the evening
was when two Indian boys" from Sill.
etz came on for a three round boxing
exhibition. Rather than a boxing ex.
hibition it was real fight and q
near knockout was gained when the
gong ended the match.
The attendance was very poor and
1t Is evident that the local people
haven't recovered from the Olson Mil
Ter matches that were staged hers
some time ago. In our opinion, how.
ever. If Tom Ray was brought back
to settle up with Miller for the de.
feat he received here, the sports
would turn out in "flocks." Miller
might be able to defeat him, but there
is lot Of us "good sports" that don't
think so.
If the game is to be revived it must
be done by a match Of this kind, in
our opinion. a

FINDS VEGETABLE
DEVIL FISH, CLAIM;
ALSO DEATH ORCHID

The story has never been substan-
tiated, but there are at least two
plants known which, like the tabled
upas tree. have the power of killing
large animals.
One is the so-called vulture lily of
Borneo and Sumatra. The plant
stands six feet high, and grows in
patches, each covering a space the
size of large room. The leaves are
enormous, being ten or twelve feet
long.
A dog and goat, brought close to
one of these clumps, both became vio-
lently i'll and died, and the explorer
who tried the experiment was so i'll
af the range of the paralysing odor of
the plant.
Death Orchid.
The other, and even more terrible,
plant is the death orchid which grows
in Venezuela. beyond the head waters
of the great Orinoco river.
This was discovered by an orchid
hunter called Grayson, who was di.
rected by Indians to the lonely spot
where this plant grows.
GraySOn says that the door was SO
strong that he at first perceived il
miles from the place where he event
ually found the plant. The Indians re
fused to accompany him farther, say
. ing that to do so was to court certain
death Grayson, however, insisted up
on going forward, although his head
was spinning with theopium-like
fumes thrown out by the plant.
At last he reached point from
which he became aware of flowers Of
great size and gorgeous coloring, glow
ing through the tree trunks ahead
He was just able to crawl away, anC
| the next thing he knew he was being
carried in little by his men. Fol
weeks afterward he was seriously i'll
and very nearly died from the effect:

VACUUM TUBE USED
IN RADIO WORK IS
SIMPLE APPARATUS

The vacuum tube is still a puZzling
piece of apparatus to great many
who have become interested in radio,
when in reality it is comparatively
simple
In the first place, there are several
different types of tubes, chief of which
are the tubes put out as radiotrons.
These tubes are also known some
times as Cunningham tubes Among
the various types of these is the U.
v. 200 type. This is detector tube
only and the U. V. POI is an amplifier.
The difference lies in the fact that the
first tube has a small amount of rare
gas left in it. while the amplifier tube
is exhausted to a very high degree.
This is sometimes what makes the
tubes a golden color.
Needs Care in Connecting.
A few suggestions relative to the in.
stallation and care of vacuum tube
will not be amiss. A vacuum tube
has four contacts that must be con
nected correctly or the tubes will not
operate
By looking at the socket that comes
for a tube it will be seen that there
are four binding posts, marked G, P
F. F. G stands for the grid, P fol-
the plate and the two marked F are
the points for the connection of the
| filament AS the tube fits into what
is known as a bayonet socket, it can
not be put in incorrectly, but the be
-, 10 hn nft11 70 .or
that the binding posts are connected
| properly.
Usually the beginner burns out his
first vacuum tube in short time
sometimes as soon as the set is con
nected. Then there is always the at
/ tempt to get a new tube for the one
burned out, and usually few word:
with the dealer. These tubes arr
tried out and are correct before the!
| leave the factory, and usually th'
| dealer himself tests the tube before
+. it leaves his hands. If vacuum tub'
is used with care and connected cor
rectly it should last several years.
Try Out the FiIiament First.
If the set is a homemade one tn,
best plan is to connect the storag
battery first and try out the filament
If the tube does not light you will
know at once that there is some
thing wrong. Never connect the
battery until 20 uare absolutely eel
tain the wiring is correct. If the
+, battery is connected in such way tina
the current will flow through tn
filament, the filament will last JUS
about as long as it will take you t
wink your eye. When this happens
the best thing to do is to throw tn
tube away and buy another. Their
nave been firms that made bushes
of repairing burned out vacuum tubes
but, owing TO the patent situation
they are no longer allowed to do thi
sort OF work. AS the best vacuuI
tubes that were repaired in this wa
were unsatisfactory and had yer
short life, the beginner will do we
to realize that when tube is burne
out it is absolutely useless.
Any circuit that uses vacuum
tube should be equipped with a gri
condenser and a grid lead. The la
ter piece of apparatus is not used
all sets, but it will be found that
the value is right louder signals wi
be received on less battery consuml
ton. The grid condenser is absolutel
essential and can not be dispense
with.

CHANGE TO ATTEND
FREE SUMMER CAMP

An opportunity will be extended to
one young man of this community to
attend Camp Knox this summer, P. H.
Slocum, secretary of the Richmond
Community Service, announced Tues
day.
All expenses will be paid by the gov
eminent and an excellent course in
military training will be offered.
Young men who are interested are
asked to get in touch with Secretary
Slocum.
President Harding has endorsed the
summer training camps in a telegram
sent out from the White House to gov
errors of the various states, urging
them to call attention to the oppor-
tunities presented for young men to
obtain military training during the
coming summer at the citizens train
ing camps.
The text of the presidents telegram
follows:
Apparently all agree that every
young man who is willing to prepare
himself for the defense of his coun-
| try should be given the opportunity
To this end ! suggest that you bring
| to the attention of the citizens of
your state the opportunity now pre-
scented to them by the citizens mill
tary training camps which will be
conducted during the coming summer
Without any cost or military obliga-
tion to themselves the young men ac-
cepted for these camps will be given
training which will be of inestimable
value through the physical and mental
development received and which will
unquestionably increase their valun
to the nation and to the communities
in which they live"
