lacked the punch at the most critical
moments of the game. As one of the
Gunnison players remarked, "The Re-
gis team played football in the mid

made 26 yards and touchdown.
Grafton failed to convert after the
first touchdown on dropkick and in
Gunnison's second attempt the ball
was fumbled in an attempt to COM

or of the game, the teams fought it
out in the middle of the field, Gunni-

it had all the way. In the fourth
quarter, Coach Krause sent practical

NEW ROAD TO CATHEDRAL
~ NOW OPEN FOR TRAVEL

The new Forest Service road from
3 Cochetopa creek to Cathedral, on the
upper Cebolla, is about completed,
and is now open to travel for automo-
biles. The entire grade has been con-
structed except for mile on Spring
creek which is already passable,
drainage installed. and there remains
work. which will be done next spring.
Hinsdale co-operated in the construc-
tion of the road to the extent of com
tributing a thousand dollars, and Sa-
guache county donated the use of it's
heavy road machinery.
The new road shortens the distance
from Saguache to the upper Cebolla
country about 60 miles, besides af-
fording much higher class road for
auto travel than the existing one
through Cebolla canon. With an ex-
tension of ten miles to connect with
the Creede-Lake City road and except
for a gap of twenty miles from Lake
City to Ouray, it will form link in
a through route from Mesa Verde and
Durango to Denver two hundred
miles shorter than any existing route
The road has no grades exceeding
seven per cent. and less than one
mile of the twenty constructed
reaches this maximum. The running
grade is from three to five per cent,
which is unusual in mountain road
ccnstruc ticn. The read has an
e'even-foot width except for few
short stretches. and ample turn-outs
have been provided on these narrow
sections.
The new road, besides making more
accessible range used by about
forty grazing permittees from Sa-
guache and San Luis valleys. opens
up body of 10000 900 feet of red
spruce and white spruce timber. Civ
ing it an outlet to the railroad at
