wv" for Western State
College Brands Indian
Head Near Gunnison

From now on Tenderfeot Mountain,
south Of town, will have a new signi-
fiance, for in addition 10 the Indian
head, that curious freak Of nature on
the nountain side, there now stands
forth giant letter "W," emblem Of
our Western State College Of Cobra
do. until recently the Normal CoElege
The w" is eight times as lzrKe rs
the letter ''N," which was PLACED on
College hin some years ago, and which
can be seen by anyone coniug into
Gunnison from the east end. Iilce the
letter IN" the Nv" is built Of stones,
PLACED nat side up and vAtew1zhed.
Il required some forty sacAs Of lime
for the latter job. The sscks were
carried up the mountain si6ie by men,
bers of the college, some Of thu slopes
being too steep for even burro tn
negotiate kt
This huge letter W, when compIei-
ed. will without doubt be the largest
insignia of its kind anywhere. II Will
measure 400 feet in length; 800 feet
in width and the lines which form the
letter are sixteen feet wide. II can
be seen from almost every direction.
The insignia is located near the In
dian head profile, but at the top and
to the east of the brow Of the Indian,
50 that it does not interfere with that
great natural phenomina-
The task of erecting this initial
was undertaken by members OF the
college, ranging in ages from II " 10.
Wednesday morning about 400 stud
ents and faculty members, Under the
leadership of DIR. John c. Johnson,
liked up the steep sides of Tenderfoot,
which is something like ithree-mile
walk from town. All day the party
labored on the job, but another trip
will be necessary to complsta the w.
Quite number of the town folks who
possessed field glasses, enjoyed the
spectacle of watching the school folks
at work on the hillside, looking for all
the world like hive Of busy bees.
At noon the crowd suspended opera
tons and enjoyed substantial feed"
each person having brought a lunch
Of his own, and in addition, coffee ard
doughnuts were passed around BY
members of the Y w. c. A. At n
late hour in the afternoon, all returned
to town, tired out and with calloused
hands, sore feet, but enthusiastic over
the accomplishment of the day and the
enjoyment of day in the open.

Friends Greet Lieut..
Governor Rockwell

Lieutenant Governor Rockwell was
a passenger on 3l5 Monday and was
greeted at the train by many Gunni-
son folks who congratulated him on
his political record in the last legisla-
ture and also thanked him most
heartily ON behalf Of the citizens Of
Gunnison for his assistance in putting
the Western State College bills thru
the senate body of the assembly. Al
tho belonging to the opposition party.
News-C Champion wants to add a word
of commentator to Mr.. Rockwell. He
is establishing a record for clean
craftsmanship that it is pleasure to
praise, whatever views one may hold
as to the correctness Of his ideas or
their benefit to the state. It is mighty
fine to have a reputation like that.
Mr. Rockwell is q young man yet and
undoubtedly has good start and q
long way to go, If he likes the game
and wants to stay in politics.

LIFE SENTENCE
FOR CRAWFORD
JURY VERDICT
Slayer of Ed. Cornfolth
Declared Sane. Com
victed of Murder

George w. Crawford, who was tried
last week for the killing Of Ed N
Cornforth, on October 18th of Ian
year, was found guilty of murder in
the first degree and sentenced to life
imprisonment. The verdict was brot
In by the jury Saturday night, after
being out for half an hour and reach.
ed in one ballot. The court room
was packed with spectators.
The killing, which occurred on Corn
forth's ranch last fall, was the culmin-
alton Of years of petty quarrcling be-
tween the two men, both Of whom
were homesteaders. There wer3 no
witnesses to the shooting, but immedi-
ately after it took place, Crawford
gave himself up to the authorities and
told his own story of the affair.
Crawford, who is about sixty-five
years Of age, stated that while carry
ing water from the Spann ranch to his
own place, three miles above, he pass
ed Cornforth's place. The latter, who
was working in his own field, shook
his fist at Crawford, whereupon he
went home and got his gun, a 1856
forth was working.
Aiter a suOrt ConNcIsatiOu COnCeIIi-
ing something that Cornforth was al
legged to have told the neighbors about
Crawford. the murderer fired one shot
which entered Cornforth's back about
two inches above the right hip. The
shot came out high on the right breast,
which showed that Cornforth must
have been bending over with his back
to the man with the gun. disappearing
