(By the Associated Press)
SEATTLE, Nov. —The University
of Washington, located in this city, is
to organize evening classes to teach
Kuan Hua, the official Pekinese lan
guage, to merchants and others hav
ing commercial relations with the
Orient.
“Pidgin” English is said to be doom
ed, according to Dr. Macey M. Skin
uer, who will have charge of the clas
es, business men who desire eo es
tablish permanent trade relations in
with China will find it to their advan
tage to return to college and familiar
ize themselves with the real Chinese.
Kuan Hua, say students of the lan
guage, is more difficult to master than
some modern European language.

doni loving goats of Alaska moun
tains prefer death to capture and
being transplanted, according to three
goat hunters of Douglas Island, Ray
Gosset, E. T. Mslnnes and “Dad" Spen
cer. The three intended to trans
plant and cultivate their captures on
i Admiralty Island.
Gossett asserted that the hunters
| climbed over a high crag and scaled
I several lofty peaks dear to the goat
I family and said they cornered a num
; der of the animals on points from w
| there was no apparent outlet for es
J cape. But the would-be captors, he
i said, did not reckon on the desper
| ation of goat disposition for, rather
[ than be captured, the animats delib
erately plunged to death by leaping j
over precipices hundreds of feet in
the air.
The practice of self destruction was
not confined to the goats alone, he
added, as the party found that the j
kids only a few weeks old leaped in
to space and oblivion when the men
approached.

FOOTBALL Gif
IS AFFECTED
By ib
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 8—Univer
sity of Oregon's champion football
machine, which last new year’s day
defeated the University of Pennsyl
vania eleven at Pasadena, California,
will have to be retnsilt almost entire
ly this year, as a majority of the mem
bers of the 1616 team have enlisted
or will not return to school.
For a time it was thought that not
ate of the 191S team eleven woul re
turn, but this fear was dispelled when
Charles ’’Shy" Huntington, last year’s
quarterback, failed to pass the physi
cal examinations for entrance into the
marines or the ambulance corps and
announced that he woohl be back in
his suit this year.
With Huntington, the neuclus of the r
1917 team will be "Bill’ Steers, a soph
tnore, who last year played on the
’varsity against the Oregon. Agricultur
al Colleg team, Basil Williams a tack
le and “Tony” Goreczky, a track man. !
Hugo Rezdek, the unfrersity of Ore- i
gou coach, who. is a't present the mam !
ager of the Pittsburg National Lea
gue Baseball team w ill be back on the
| campus ready to begin work by nexn
week and lead the team to victory.
MISSOULA, Mont, Nov. 8—Earl
“Click” Clark, captain of the Mont
ana State University football team and
all-star northwest end for the past
three seasons, has enlisted in the
army.
The decision that the freshman I
shall not play on the varsity football I
team in the Itocky Mountain Inter- '
collegiate Conference this season will -
hit a number of the institutions pret
ty hard, which are members of the
conference.
The conference rule forbids first
year men to participate in tnter-col
logiate football contests. Because of
the war representatives of several of
the schols said that they would be un
able to place elevens on the field un
less permitted to use their first-year
men.
The championship eleven for the
last two seasons—the Colorado Ag
gies—have been hard hit by having
first string men Join the service of the
army or nevy. At that school Captain I
Klemmedson and Robinson, the two .
ends are gone, Dotson and Nichols,
the tackles, Cozens, Hoch and Thomp
son, the guards; Shephardson, the cen
ter; Gratton, substitue and Donaldson
and Bowen, other substitue linemen
all are in their country’s service.
The same condition is true at the
Colorado University team where al
most the entire team has Joined the
service of Uncle Sam. The univer
sity oi Denver has also lost valuable
men. It is felt, however, that practi
cally all the teams are more or less
on a parity as far as their losses are
concerned. Whether or not any of the
teams will be forced to retire from
competition as a result of the ruling
remains to be seen.
