HARLTNGEN. April 23.-Officials
OF the Arroyo Colorado Navigation
District Tuesday received notice
that the Rivers and Harbors COM
mittee Of congress has asked the
III. q. army engineers TO review the
adverse report on proposed extern
sion OF the Intracoastal Canal from
Corpus Christi 20 the Rio Grande
and TO Harlingen.
The review was requested by the
Tntracoastal Canal association Of
Louisiana and Texas. Joe Penny,
Jr., chairman Of the Arroyo dis
trict commission, said.
Notice OF the resolution asking
u review or the project was receiv-
ed from Lieut.. Col. E. H. Marks,
district engineer at Galveston. In
the notice Col. Marks asks that all
interested parties submit state
ments. briefs. or data To his office
not later than October /, 1885.
The question OF compiling a COM
plete brief on the project. bringing
II up to date, is one that is yet
TO be- decided definitely. A short
time ago officials OF the Intra-
coastal Canal association asked
the Arroyo Colorado Navigation
district to bear the expense of such
N brief. estimated at ST. 5000. The
local district declined to bear the
expense.
MI. Penny said that undoubtedly
a brief would be submitted on the
project. either prepared by the In
tracoaStal Canal association. or by
other interests in cooperation with
the Canal association. He said
the commissioners OF the naviga-
ton district would hold a meeting
shortly and get In touch with the
Canal association officials to dis
russ further action in the matter.
The notice sets forth that the
previous reports of the district en-
gineer. division engineer. board OF
engineers for rivers and harborS
and the chief of engineers were un-
favorable for extension OF the canal
beyond Corpus Christi.
Extensions to Port Isabel and To
Harrington are sought.

should say the sport. I don't think
it would be q bad idea to let the whole
affair ride for couple of months. It
may clear up of ITSELF"
II agree with you thoroughly" said
Sam II know Chuck well enough to
say that If you mentioned to him that
you were considering asking his resig-
nation, he'd not hesitate minute to
resign. He's that way. On the other
hand, If you just leave him alone. he
may find his way around by himself
eventually; and once you get tA know
him. I'm sure you'll think the world
of him, just as I do. He'd give you
his shirt II he likes you. If he doesn't,
well then it's just too bad"
"Oh, Sam, I meant to ask you,
what's the low-down' on his run-in
with McBrair at the field last week.
I heard he crooked the old boy right
on the button"
That's the bunk. A downright and
malicious rumor. Chuck drove up to
the field to watch the practice He
leaned on the horn accidentally and
the button got stuck. 1t kept blowing
while McBrair was trying to tell the
squad something, and he got mad. He
walked over and gave Chuck piece Of
his mind, and Chuck told him what
he thought of him. That's all there is
to it. AS for hitting McBrair, that's
absolutely ridiculous"
Say" piped up Sleepy" Bill Burey,
maybe he hates Dynamite Dan so
much that that's the reason he gave
up foot ball. BY gosh. there's a clue.
Now isn't it?"
Might be something in it at that"
agreed Wilcox. Every one knows he
played great on the frosh outfit. Liked
the game then, too. You could see that
by the way he played. Got tremen-
dous kick out of it. Wouldn't surprise
me at all if that were the reason"
Sam didn't say word. He puffed
vigorously at his cigarette. i've got
to duck along" he said hurriedly.
Got to make class. See you all later.
So long"
When Sam had closed the front door
behind him Wilcox brought his hand
down on the arm Of the chair with a
bang. Looks to me as though the
house was afraid of this bird Arnold.

his quiet and deliberate way. There's
something to what Barkley said about
Arnold having good reason for
everything he does. especially for not
going out for the team. If that reason
! is sound at all his not coming around
here is explainable and even pardon
able. He knows that this house Is a
house of action, Of campus achieve

that we must feel definitely OF him

with us in our policy. Granting that

think we ought to lay of any resigna-
ton stuff. Not only because of what
Barkley said about Arnold being a
good guy, but 1t would do more harm
than good right now"
Il agree with you, Bob" chimed in
one of the brothers. THE other
houses would spread it all over the
campus that we dropped. Arnold merely
because he refused to play foot ball.

saw. I'd like to see him In the house
here as much as any of you would.
But know right well there's nothing
/ or any one else can do about the
matter. I haven't roomed with him
all this time not to know that he al
ways has a sound reason for anything
he does, and to try to persuade him
to change his course Is sheer folly.

stubborn cuss, isn't hep" asked
Wilcox, rhetorically.
"Yes and no." Sam replied. trifle
vexed at the tone of Wilcox's remark.
Did he ever say anything to you
about the house? You know-whether
he liked the boys here or not? Or
whether he thought that G. o. wasn't
quite his speed? Maybe if we kept gin
in the house we might be able to at
tract him around now and then"
II wouldn't say that If I were you,
Wilcox. Chuck Arnold may like his
fire-water, but he has more sense than
to hurt the fraternity by drinking in
this house What's more, he doesn't
drink one-tenth as much as you fell
lows think All man has to do on
this campus is take one swallow of
beer and he's set down permanently
as a wallowine sot. You're all wrong
about Arnold"
What keeps him from trying out
for the foot ball team, then, If it isn't
drinking and downright laziness?" Joe
Colburn, third string substitute end,
asked hesitantly from atop the piano,
where he was sitting.
That question l cannot answer.
Except for Arnold himself, I am the
only one in college who knows the real
reason, and I promised on my word
not to tell any one. I assure you,
though, it isn't laziness or drinking. or
any silly reason like that"
How about telling us why he never
comes around to the house. Are we
poison or lepers. or what?"
That's another thing. AS mat
ter of fact, I never asked him; but If
were to guess, it's because he feels,
and not without justification. that the
fraternity as unit Is pretty sore at
him for not going out for foot ball
this Fall. Cocky and self-assured as
he is by nature he doesn't like petty
argument and ill-feeling. so he thinks
it's best for him to remain away en-
tirely. He understands your attitude.
and he understands his own. know
that he feels that the two are irrecon-
cilable and that nothing can be done
about 1t. That's that"
There something to that, after all"
said Grayson. breaking the silence
which followed Sans speech IN de-
fense of his roommate Il think we'd
be wiser not to stir up fuss by trying
to force a resignation at this time.
He must have good reason for not
playing. And not coming over to the
house simply is a natural by-product
| of his attitude toward the college. or

there wouldn't be any truth in that
rumor wouldn't make any difference.
The frosh would swallow 1t, hook, line
and sinker."
"You bet they would" said Grayson
smilingly. land what a blow a rumor
like that would be to us Is nobody's
business.
1T would cramp our style something
awful and kill of all chances of our
getting a decent delegation"
Seeing that an argument was settled
some one suggested that they start
for class. It was nearly o'clock and
all but one or two had afternoon ses-
sions. The gathering broke up and the
big room in the g. o. house was sud-
denly emptied.
