Bruiy, 70 Sociable

An unusual experience with bear
was reported by Mr.. and Mrs. Emery
Ross, who visited at Cottage Grove.
While they were camped at Lakeside
their son Lee and an uncle chased a
bear into the lake. Thinking that
they could capture the bear by knock
ing 1t on the head In the water they
gave pursuit In rowboat and sue
ceeded in swatting the bear on the
head. The bear mistook their intent,
thought they wanted to play with him
and got into the boat in order that
he might be more sociable and make
the play less one-sided.
The men feared that the bear
might get too rough, so they took the
bears place in the water. The men
and the bear all got away without In
jury.-Portland Oregonian.

RITCHIE TO ASK
VIRGINIA'S HELP
Declares Key To Situation 10 Held
BY Southern State
Needed Legis-
lation.

Governor Richie will meet
Gov. E. Lee Trinkle, of Virginia,
early in September to confer on
conservation of crabs. Swepson
Earle, Conservation Commissioners
of Maryland, and w. Mcdonald
Lee, Commissioner of Fisheries OF
Virginia, will attend this confer
ence.
Action by Virginia to protect female
crabs is sought by the Maryland au-
thorities. Under the Maryland law no
female crabs may be taken at any
time, but it is alleged they are dredged
in Virginia waters.
The situation was explained by Mr.
Earle as follows:
Female crabs" he said, leave
Maryland waters in August and Sep
TENDER for Hampton Roads, where the
water is deeper and saltier. In Oc-
tober and November 80 per cent of the
crabs in Hampton Roads are females,
while in the Maryland waters the
figures are reversed, 80 per cent Of
the crabs remaining being males.
There are SO licensed boats taking
crabs in Virginia waters.
at will be seen that Virginia holds
the key to the situation. We want the
Virginia Legislature to pass law pro-
hibiting the catching of female crabs.
In 1911 went to Virginia and asked
for such legislation and the authorities
told me If I could prove my conten-
ton that a large majority of the
female crabs from Maryland go to
their waters they would have the de-
sired laws passed. The United States
Bureau of Fisheries proved it for me,
and now we win ask that the promise
be kept.
GAS soon as the little crabs are able
to travel they start back for Maryland,
and by the time they are 2 years old
and have shed Is times they are Of
marketable size. credit female crab
with 100000 eggs, but the Federal au-
thorities go as high as 100000. In
either case, and making allowance for
accidents and fatalities, it is plain
that the destruction Of every female
crab means loss of many thousands
of young ones.
Virginia has five-inch Gull law for
crabs, the same as we have, but dealers
here who buy crabs from Virginia COM
plain that the law is not enforced. In
Maryland the law is observed In an
unannounced inspection of packing
house on Honga river last week I
found only one crab under the legal
size In crates containing $1,000"

Though the matter of the military
evacuation Of the Ruhr is not within
the scope of the present conference, 1t
has been discussed there, and so M.
Herriot has proposed that as soon as
Germany accepts the experts plan and
fulfills the conditions, France will get
out of the Hagen district. and that the
other occupied districts shall be eyac-
uated according to the speed with
which Germany fulfills her obligations.
If the other allies agree to this plan.
the process Of evacuation would be
complete in about two years.

broke off all relations with the German
war department. 1t was asserted that
General Won Seeckt. head of the Ger
man army, had demanded that the
commission give forty-eight hours mo-
tice before inspecting any German
military organization or plant. and
that the commission also post a notice
at every place inspected that thisewas
the last inspection Of the German mill
tary forces that would be undertaken
by the entente. General Walch was
ordered by the French government to
refuse absolutely all such demands and
to report in Paris. According to the
commission, the German war depart
ment has, by underhand methods. been
able to train officers and men enough
for an army vastly larger than that
allowed by the Versailles treaty.

ARMY vs.. NOTRE
DAME FEATURE
Many Upsets Nm Eastern
Football Games Noted
Saturday

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-MajOr east
ern football elevens, tainted by the
blight of surprise in Saturdays game,
will seek to retrieve in contests this
week when some of the classics OF the
season will be presented.
Heading the list is the annual inter
sectional premier between Army and
Notre Dame which. will be played this
year at the Polo Grounds. Yale and
Dartmouth meet at New Haven. Prince
ton and Navy clash at Princeton, Penn
State goes to Atlanta for am inter-
sectional with Georgia Tech and Col
gate journeys to Nebraska to meet the
Cornhuskers.
Marquette, now in its third -unde-
feated season, smothered Navy with
speed in the final quarter and earned a
81 to 8 victory after the Middies had
taken the lead with a field goal in the
final period.
Princeton narrowly escaped defeat by
Lehigh. Burke dashed 80 yards across
the Tiger goal in the last quarter, but
officials returned the ball to the H.
yard line where the Lehigh back
stepped out of bounds. The Princeton
rooters were happy to accept a moth
ing to-nothing score as the bulky lie
high line and running backs constantly
threatened the Princeton goal during
the last half.
Georgia gave Yale scare by scor-
ing a touchdown in the first quarter
after a sixty yard advance down the
field. The southerners failed to kick
goal, however, and the Elig won Ito 6
by converting their goal after a touch
down in the third period into point.
Both elevens tried hard to tally there
after but failed. Georgia reached the
Blue 10 yard line in the third session
and Yale was on the soptherners' three
yard line at the final whistle.
Fumbling at. critical times by. the
Mountaineers enabled Pittsburg to
administer a IA to defeat to West
Virginia in the other big upset on east
ern gridirOns.

WEST VIRGINIA
TOPLAY CENTRE
Mountaineers Point For
Game With Colonies
At New York.

MORGANTOwN, w. Va, Oct. H.
After Saturdays game in Pittsburg with
the Pitt eleven, the West Virginia uni
versity football squad returned to Nor
.gantown and began intensive work for
the next two assignments on its 1874
acknowledgement college in the new
stadium here next Saturday and Cen
tire college at the Polo grounds, New
York City, on Saturday, October 20.
Geneya's showing abaingt w: and j.
in the opening game proved that the
Beaver Falls eleven will not be set
APP for the Mountaineefs. Several
regulars were hurt nj that tilt and al
though still out of the game. Coach
Sack expects to have all of them back
ins the lineup. before next Saturday.
When the Mountaineers so to New
York the smoke of world series bat
ties will have Disappeared and Gotham
fans will be readily for football. Last
year1 after being held to a 1913 tie
by Penn State, the Mountaineer eleven
returned to New York ten days later
and gave Rutgers decisive trim

Centre A Worthy Foe
This fall West Virginia has only one
chance to "show Off before eastern
critics and the squad intends to make
the most of its single opportunity. Cen
tire will be a worthy foe and inasmuch
as the Kentucky Colonies have strong
following in the east, the contest is ex-
pected to draw heavily.
In 1923 West Virginia, stressed
straight football-that is, line plunges
and Off-tackle thrusts. The present
Mountaineet machine does things in a
different manner. DIR. G. w. Spears,
former Dartmouth star and coach, has
shown his versatility by developing a
complicated, but powerful aerial attack.
This years team stresses the specta-
cular and DIR. Spears has. created sew
eral new. tricks that will be shown for
the first time when his warriors meet

v. M. l. OUT TO
BEAT VIRGINIA

LEXINGTON, Va, Oct. 1.-THE
stage is set at Lexington for the TWEEN
tieth gridiron battle between the V. M.
I. Flying Squadron and the Univer-
sity Of Virginia cavaliers. The foot
ball series between the two institutions
covers a span Of 81 years, grid relations
having been first established in 1885.
OF the 10 games played thus far, the
Cavaliers have won the lions share.
with 14Svictories to their credit. The
Cadets have annexed four games, and
in 1900 the teams battled to a score
less tie. r.
The Cavaliers are out for revenge for
the past two defeats, and the Cadets
are ambitious to make 1t three straight
from the team that held Harvard to
two touchdowns. All of which means
that there is treat in store for the
fans who win see the two eleyens line
up at 2 80 Saturday to await the re-
feree's whistle. Arrangements have been
made to handle a record crowd, and
there is every assurance that there
will be seats for the thousands who
are expected to pour into Lexington
from points without as well as within
the state.
