In refutation of statements made
by Dean F. A. Thomson of the school

Thomson magnificent specimen
containing about three cubic feet and
weighing approximately 250 pounds,
to prove that the area is capable Of
producing lump coal. The chunk is
a splendid coherent mass and is not
only free from signs of friability but
is of exceptionally high quality, COM
pairing favorably with the better

LEWISTON CASE IS
TO BE TRIED HERE

The two cases in which Mary Clay
Dahlquist and Henry Poff of Lewis
ton are plaintiffs against Judge
Scales, Sheriff Welker and others
also of Lewiston, alleging conspir-
acy in road condemnation suit
was transferred to District Judge
Edgar c. Steele's court in Moscow
today by Judge Wallace N. Scales
who is one of the defendants in the
action.
The case has attracted consider
able notoriety, and is one in which
Poff is sueing for $4,000, while the
other plaintiff, Dahlquist is request
ing the court for 100000 damages,
for the alleged false Imprisonment OF
both Mrs. Dahlquist and Poff, and
for an alleged conspiracy to take
their land for state highway pur-
poses.
1t was the filing of this alleged
conspiracy case that resulted in
Judge Scales citing Attorney B. F.
Tweedy, counsel for the plaintiffs,
for contempt, and striking out por-
tions of the complaint. The supreme
court granted a writ of prohibition
against Judge Scales. holding that
he had no right to rule on case in
which he was party. Attorney
Tweedy objected yesterday to the
case going to the Latah county court,
preferring that Kootenai county be
chosen

GLOOM PREVAILS
in TRACK OUTLOOK
VANDAL TEAM WEAK IN SEVERAL
EVENTS DISTANCES AND
SPRINTS IN BEST SHAPE.

With the season close at hand and
training already well under way, Ida
no track prospects are far from en-
couraging, and the University of Ida
no Vandals are not doomed to make
any remarkable showing in Pacific
Coast conference circles this spring
unless new and promising material
is discovered soon. Such is the ver-
dict Of those closely affiliated with
the track work at the university.
Little new material has turned out
in answer to call some time ago
by Coach R. L. Mathews, and he has
had to rely almost entirely on those
men, limited in number, who had pre-
vious experience here and elsewhere.
Idaho will show best in the dis
tances, with several good men out
who are developing stamina and
speed. Guy Penwell, present captain,
heads the list, and is slated, it is
thought, for placements in confer
ence meets. He is being given good
support by Williams and Grove, both
of whom have won cross-country let
ters during the past winter and fall.

Sprints Appear Fair
Casebolt and Powers are showing
good form in the sprints, the former
having had considerable experience in
the 440 yard dash. With good wea-
ther and little more experience, both
should make good conference time.
Arthur Sowder has been showing good
form in the half mile, and has sue
cessfully outdistanced any of his RI
walls up to the present time, and un-
less something unforeseen happens.
should clip the distance in consider
able under the two minute mark.
ldaho's great weakness will be evil
dent in the weight and field events.
Rowe, the most promising prospect in
the weights, has recently been de-
clared ineligible for participation dur
ing the coming season, which leaves
Al Fox and Quinn almost alone in
that division. Neither, however, have
had very much experience, but are
working hard and may develop into
good material
Cooley For Jumps
Arnold Cooley, letter man from last
year, is again out for the jumps and
jayelin and is showing good promise.
Mellick is also one of the squad with
aspirations in the javelin event.
Idaho's first track appearance this
year occurs April 2S, when she will
enter team in the Seattle relay car
11val. Just what distance team to
enter has not been definitely decided
ly the Idaho athletic department.
The complete track schedule is as
