A few short years of trying to dope
out weather, politics, trout fishing and
sundry other problems has rather de-
finitely cured US of over-eAthusiastic
representations, but we will at least
gently venture our belief that Colo
RADIO College will know tomorrow that
a real football game has been played
on their gridiron and that their home
boys are either on the short end of .he
score or right badly scared.
The Mountaineers left this morning
for Colorado Springs to open the 1924
season with the Tigers tomorrow
afternoon They left with squad Of
twenty-four men, the best team yet
developed Mt Western. Colorado Col
lege presents a weakened team this
year. In the face Of this, it is rumor-
ed that over-ardent c. c. supporters
are, or were, offering perfectly good
money at seven to five that the Tigers
would knock the spots off the Gunni-
son aggregation to the tune Of fifty u
nothing. Also in the face Of tho
scare Gunnison threw into them last
year in their 1915 game.
or course, you can't tell TIL the
votes are countad-but Western has y
feat IoOtUoii tcaiu this year, asSu tssAy

An early recapitulation of the sea
sons material proved pretty doubtful,
but since the squad has been organiE-
ed this week, Coach Krause feeis con-
siderably more reconciled to the loss
of so many of last seasons veterans,
The three Wright brothers, both Of

ENROLMENT At
COLLEGE SHOWS
LARGE INCREASE

Continuing the remarkable ENROLL
ment record of its twelve years his
tory, Western State College opened
for its fall quarter this week with an
enrolment increase of approximately
twenty per cent over that of last Sep
tember. At noon yesterday the enroll
ment had reached 35s. and will likely
reach 375 for the fall quarter. and
between 450 and 500 for the year.
The remarkable growth of Western
is undoubtedly without parallel in the
state. Last year the enrolment for
the year was 3S9.
A notable increase in the proportion
Of boys over girls Is apparent this
year, which is an indication of the
increasing popularity of the institu-
tion with nearby towns. There are
also a greater number of out-ofstate
students than usual.
There are ia high school students
enrolled already, with more to follow
after the haying season is over.
Enrolment by classes in the high
school is as follows:
Seniors, 80; Juniors, SO: Sophmoref,
80: Freshmen, 10.
These figures are noteworthy, as
ordinarily ten per cent Of the high
school enrolment are seniors-hert
about thirty per cent are seniors-over
half enrolled are upper classmcn.
This years senior class will be as
large as last years, which was one Of
the largest ever graduated in the local
high school.
The college cafeteria is running
smoothly, with about the same aver
age of meals served as last yeard.
Lunch is the most highly patronized
meal each day, ut which about 180 arc
served. Robert Reppel Of Peoria. Ill
is the new baker at the cafeteria.
Miss Lucy Spicer returned Saturday
from visit Of several weeks In Iowa
and has moved into the new club
house. The building is nearly COM
plete, and only the floors remain to Be
sanded before the school can tslce
complete possession Of this school
community house.
The years first issue Of the "Top q
the World" student newspaper. made

Wednesday Of this week. It has

Los |MOs-Cl1HEDRAl
ROAD NEARLY FINISHED
BY FORESTRY SERVICE

Ranger John A. Staveley, in charge
Of the forest road being built back OF
0evtosth mountain. from Log PiWos
to the Cathedral region, was over to
Gunnison last week on . business trip.
He states that he has Is to 80 men
employed on the forestry account, and
they will be done in 80 days at the
present outlook.
It is the intention to push this roed
thru to Lake City within = year OF
two, but the connection with the Pow
derhorn valley is problem. It is
really the outlet for Cathedral which
should be built, but the canon above
the Powderhorn postoffice is not well
settled and it would take several
thousands OF dollars to make even q
reasonably good raod.
In any event. motorists will soon be
able to get to Cathedral, via Cochetopa
creek and McDonough's.
