CHICAGO. ILL.,. Nov. 14.-As far
rs Chicago is concerned, Dartmouth
the football champion of the East
is also champion Of the world.
The boys from the hills Of New
Hampshire, modified into one of the
greatest gridiron machines the game
has seen in long time, beat the
Maroons today by a score of SO to Z.
The only consolation left to Chi
cago in that score is that 1t took a
Chicago man to put the Green Ma
chine together. the Dartmouth coach
being Mr.. jess Hawley, who sells
radios in this city during the off sea-
son.
The archives of Chicago are to be
searched to see il this community
cannot also lay some claim to big
Swede Oberlander. the Dartmouth
back, even though it may be away
back.
QUITE A FELLOW
Big Swede Oberlandcr is Chicago's
idea of quite fellow. even though
he seemed bent on pelting the city
with a football yesterday.
The first time Chicago saw Big
Swede Oberlander in the early after
noon he was chucking forward pass
to somebody from Dartmouth. The
last it saw of him. Big Swede Ober-

and then lapdcd-spikes first-upon
his sides or flank.
Naturally, the racer would jump
forward and try to run away from
the spiking. The faster he'd run, the
more would the spike jump.
Another trick was to place pieces
of tin foil on the flank of the horse
in such n way that whenever any
breeze ran afoul it there came loud,
kissing sound. When the horse heard
the noise in back of his ears he
tried to run away from it. The swift
er he ran the greater became the
volume of sound.
Under the double urge of those
spikes and the terrifying sounds, the
gallopers streaked it along at a
rather merry clip and all the players
got q run for their money-except
those who happened to make the
play on scooters which were what you
might term contrary.
ALWAYS ON LEVEL.
Some horses instead of racing for
ward Mt the very moment they felt
the jab of the spikes, wouldn't run
at all. They'd just rear and plunge
and try to shake off the device much
in the way that a bucking bronco
of Americas western plain tries to
unseat an unwanted rider.
OF course, there was no racing
thrill for the owner or the hacker of
such horse. But those who wagered
on that particular galloper always
had the comforting knowledge that
everything was on the level. They
never were made unhappy by the
suspicion or knowledge, that the
horse was pulled" to suit the ideas
of some trainer. or jockey, or clique
J of bookmakers.

SCHOOL NOTES
The Honor Roll Bob Libby

At the beginning of school all the children were very "ager to have the Honor Roll. We nave 1t placed on d side board so that all may note each others honor. We are all very proud of it,
 In order to obtain a sttr you must first have perfect lesson of any sort. That means that the honor roll stands for perfection.
 We have three aSsoI tnentS of stars. The small white star stands for one point. The red star stands for five points, or five perfect lessons. fine big star or "speciaI,' as it is commonly known, stands for a perfect rev. jew lesson or something else that is special.
 The whole Ho4or Roll cont aims two hundred eighty five stars. They are divided like this: Leonard Brenwick has twelve points us perfect lessons, two red stars and two white ones. Verua Wills has thirty one points OF perfect lessons. Janus Trim has sixteen points t0 her credit. Deanie O'Neill comes next with forty enc points. Marion Wills " falls with tuNty one points. Marg aret Ahrens has twenty three points. 1Ien comes the highest grade O1 all Louise Ahrens with the e.-ding grade of forty eight points. Bob Libby has seventeen poIats, Frank Wills has thirty eight points, and Graham Trim has twenty eight points.
 think tn u the Honor Roll does us quite d b,J of good. For instance, it naheo us exercise more care, by way ot pei lection. Please do not think however, that we work only .or syars or honor. We work tu maAe good"
The McCarthy weekly news., 1925-10-24
The Honor Roll Deanie O'Neill

when MfS. f1alralS came last year she told us about the honor roll and what to do. We liked iC so much last year that we wanted it this year. All the children are glad that we have it again.
 We can get stars in any sub- Ject. If We have a perfect lesson We get a White star, and fi%e white stars equal a big red one When we review in any subject and get d hundred We get a special star. For d special star we can choose from number of colors
 The number of stars alto AeIIlci IS EOo. ne SlflS nave 1JO and the boys 95. There are four boys and six girls tho. Louise Ahrens has the greatest number of stars, which is 48. Deanie ONeill comes next with fl stars, Frank Wills B stars, Leonard BrenWick 12 points, Verna Wills 3l, Bob 17, and Graham has 2S
 There are many values in the honor roll. One of them is that all of the children like to get stars so they work hard to get them. Another value is when anyone gets jealous of another ones stars they get their own erased, so we don't have any jealousy.

OLYMPIA-When Governor Roland
H. Hartley fulfills his promise OF call
ing the legislature together in extra
session next November, II they are
good and adjourn February IA, 1t will
make the fourth extraordinary session
of the legislature held during state

punishment law.
Second extra session was that of
June, 1909, called by Governor M. 3.
Hay for the impeachment proceedings

PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION
RELEASES LAND TO STATE

OLYMPlA--President Calvin Cool.
idge's proclamation recently releasing
i52,S04 acres OF timber lands in the
Olympic and SnoQualmie forest re-
serves for selection by this state to
make good its losses through the crea-
ton Of forest reserves more than a
quarter OF century ago, practically
completes the work OF exchanging
4SS,25O acres of federal for lost state
lands, gives Washington full control
OF its land grant for school, capitol,
penal and charitable institutional
work and paves the way for the estab-
lishment by the University Of Wash
ington of probably the greatest school
for forestry in the world. The Stale
University will exchange It's western
Washington lands for timbered area
in the Sultan and Pilchuck basins in
the Snoqualmie Basin, permission hav-
ing been given. several years ago by
the state legislature and by Congress
for the exchange.
The final proclamation eliminating
the areas in the two reserves for the
benefit OF this state comes more than
a quarter Of century after big
slice Of the states land grant was
seized by the federal government for
forest reserve purposes; nearly TWEEN
ty years after legislative committee
in conference with the late R. A. Bal
linger, then federal land commits
sioner, and Clifford Pinchot, then ma
eional forester, obtained a pledge that
the government would consider the
exchange; twelve years after Land
Commissioner G. v. Savidge obtained
a definite pledge from the Interior
Department and Agricultural Depart
ment that the exchange would be
made Immediately and eight years
after the surveys for the exchange
were completed! The deal between
state and government could have been
completed in 1917, but for the fact
that war came and engineers needed
to handle finishing details of the work
were sent to the front instead Of to
the Washington forests.
The state gained one big advantage
by the delay Of the past eight years.
The unprecedented storm on the
Olympic peninsula in 1921 destroyed
hundreds of acres Of standing timber
In the Hob and Clearwater river val
leys and the federal government IN
stead of this state stood the loss.
President Coolidge's proclamation
frees 60,O49 acres Of timber land in
the Snoqualmie reserve and 92.755
acres in the Olympic reserve. OF the
latter 61,642 acres are in the Clear
water and s1,11s acres in the Hob
river valley.
