At one hospital an operation on one
of the injured was under way.
Water mains to west Kelso were
carried out by the collapse and this
section of the city was without water.
Four of the seriously injured who
were rushed to hospitals were Alfred
Evans, T. c. Mcdonald, T. A. Wake
field and a man named Kirk.
Many heroic attempts at rescue
were performed as the bridge nsap-
ped and hurled pedestrians and mo-
florists into the river.
Seven men were seen drowning by
one eye witness, powerless to help.
They were swept out of the mouth
of the Cowlitz, into the Columbia.
Two children were seen struggling
in the stream with man swimming
after them.
Hobart Gray, one of those to es-
cape. said he was walking in the milo
die Of the bridge when it began 10
sag. He saved himself by a sprint.
A number of automobiles could be
seen partially submerged. Their oe-
cupants are missing.
The bridge was crowded when the
accident occurred, not only with the
workers walking home, but with
scores of others viewing log Jam
in the river. 1t was this log jam
that weakened the bridge supports
and caused the disaster.
The searchlight Of the steamer Po-
mona aided in illuminating the
strange scene .
among the watchers for bodies
along the river banks were pitlful
groups. relatives OF the victims.
A number of corpses are believed
entangled in the timbers of the freck-
age. Some living persons may be
found clinging to the debris.

OPORT NEWO
COACHES DIFFER

New York, January .4.-There
seems TO be afrather wide difference
of opinion among the football coaches
Of the country concerning the "eon-
vention" system of giving signals be-
fore the. play starts. This was brought
out at tkH recent meeting Of the
Football Coaches Association where
the makers of the sport from all parts
of the country had an opportunity
to discuss just SUCH points.
The convention" system consists
in gathering of the players behind
the line of scrimmage before each
formation, in which they form a
tight group with their heads together
and the quarterback gives the sig
mails. Such q practice is claimed by
some to hold up the game while other
coaches claim that it speeds thlnTE
up.
It would appear to depend upon
how the players were coached and
whether the convention was used as
q pow-wow or merely to give the
signals.
Major Cavanaugh Of Boston Col
lege and Robert Zuppke of Illinois,
took opposite sides of the question
at the meeting, Cavanaugh claimed
that in his experience of watching
games where the ring around the
rosie" system was used, a great deal
of time was wasted and the specta-
tors became impatient. Zuppke as
serted on the other hand that he had
l.. hn
one and had found that by actual
seconds the Convention" was . time
saver.
Fielding Yost, of Michigan, VINO is
one of the stauch hackers of the new
idea became good naturally indig-
nant as ne rose to the defense of one
of his pet theories. Yost too, it seems
had held the stop watch on the plays
and proceeded with many convincing
gestures Of arms and legs to explain
and demonstrate why he was right.
He claimed that much more time was
lost by q team which called the sig
nails on the line Of scrimmage because
of the fact that the signals quite
often had to be repeated and that af-
ter they were called the players then
had to shift to positions called for
in the signals.
In his system. he explained that
his players, after receiving the sig
nails flashed like cOvey Of quails
to their places, thereby eliminating
= shift which would give the other
team an opportunity to shift also in
preparation for the defense.

EIGHTY MAY BE DEAD

Continued from page onel
the bridge came from neighboring
towns or were laborers newly arriv-
ed for work on the Longview Hotel,
or the new steel bridge.
The bridge was built in 1907. 1t
was of timber construction of the
suspension type.
Shortly after the collapse of the
bridge, and during the confusion the
lights of the city suddenly went out.
