OFFICERS CHOSEN I
: FOR THE RED CROSS 1
Dean Roach Explains:the Work Out
lined for Coining Year hy the Na
tional Organization
The board of directors of the local
Red Cross met last Friday tor the
purpose of making plans for the com- !
Ing year, and for the election of of
ficers.
Dean Beach, having attended the (
meeting in Spokane "at which time I
the national chairman of the Red :
Cross, Dr. Livingston Farrand, was
present, gave a report of the peace ■
program of the Red Cross as outlined i
by Dr. Far rand. The three most j
vital points of the new program were
especially emphasised by Dean Beach. ;
First, the great need of Europe
today for clothing and for medical ;
supplies. In order to supply these (
needs it will be necessary for the
Red Cross to make and ship large i
numbers of garments during the ;
winter. i
Second, the continuance and mak- 1
ing permanent of the home service i
branch of the Red Cross. The origi- i
nal work of this branch was to meet
the problems of the families of men
in service and to help returned men.
Since all problems of suffering are <
regularly with us, and must be met, |
the work of the home service will , i
be along this line, helping all fain-,
ilies. The.scope of this work will be
left to the community.
The third and biggest work of the
Red Cross is to be the health center
programs. The previous work of the
Rod Cross in the prevention of tu- 1
berculosis was pointed out and the -
now plans for the prevention of tv- L
berculosis and other diseases were i
outlined, a health center for meet- |
ing these problems being strongly *
urged by the Red Cross.
Dean Beach empnasised the fact,
that the Red Cress was not an ehier- H
gency agent to act during the war, 1
as many persons seem to think, but <
a permanent organization with def-h
mite work to do. . i
The probable re-occurence of the
influenza was discussed as a local l
problem, the matter being left to the
committee on civilian relief.
The following officers -were elect
ed:
Chairman—Mrs. George Ewing.
Vice chairman—Mrs. Pfeiffer. I
Secretary— Mrs. Lester Folger.
Treasurer—A. R. Met/
Home service secretary —Mrs. P. '
F. Potter.
Chairman of the committee on civ
ilian relief— Win Goodyear.
The chairman appointed the fol
lowing persons to serve as p. board
of directors: Mrs. E. W. Downen.
Mrs". Thos. Neill. Dean Beach, Mr.
Pinkley, Dr. Kimzey, Mr. Allen, Mr.
Forrest and Mr. Slagle.
OLD RIVALS CLASH
AT COLFAX TODAY
The high school football team will,
line up, this afternoon against their
old rivals of Colfax high at the
county seat. Arrangements have
been made so that all who wish to' !
see the game can go to Colfax on the \
regular train, leaving Pullman at
1:55 p. m., and can return on the
"bug." which will be held at Colfax
till 5:30. The morning session of
the high school will begin early so
that the students can be dismissed at
noon.
Colfax has a strong team this year
and is confident of winning the |
game, but the Pullman boys are also
confident and the contest promises to
he a thriller from start to finish.
During the past week Coach Eustis I
has been working hard to remedy
the weak spots which his team
showed in the game against Lewis-;
ton. If Pullman can defeat Colfax
the boys are figured to have an ex- '
cellent chance of winning over Walla
Walla. A big crowd of Pullman'
rooters is expected to attend thej
game at Colfax.

M I.I.MAN RECEIVES
CHINESE PHEASANTS
>o/.eu Game Birds Sent Here for
Liberation —Open Game Season
Still Unsettled
K. W. Carter, deputy county game
rarden for the Pullman district, Sat
rday received 12 young Chinese
iheasants for planting in this com-
QUnlty. The birds are thought to
>(. too young for liberation and will
>c kept in captivity by Mr. Carter
intll they are old enough to take
are of themselves, when they will
e( liberated. Fifty of the game birds
.re assigned to Whitman county by
he state game warden, coming from
he Walla Walla game farm, and the
'ullman quota was sent here by the
ounty game commission.
There is much uncertainty here as
o the open season on quail and Hun
garian partridges this year. The
■ounty game commission declared an
•pen season on the birds for the first
.wo weeks in November but this ac
ton was declare*! invalid by the state
name warden in a recent ruling. In
tome counties, where the same con
lition prevailed, the county game
warden has permitted the hunting
>f the' game birds in question, assur
ng the sportsmen that no arrests will
i" made. Whether the Whitman
•ounty commission will take the same
purse is problematical.

FRIDAY EVENING
OPEN FOR SOCIALS
The mooted "open Friday" ques
tion at the State College was definite
ly settled Wednesday when, at a joint
meeting of the faculty and student
social committees, it was voted to
permit social events on Friday even
ings in future, giving the students
two open nights, Friday and Satur
day. Previous to the war the two
nights were allowed the students but
two years ago the ban was. placed
on Friday evening social events as a
war measure, a rule which has stood
since that time. The question of
again authorizing student gatherings
or, Friday evening was broached-with
the opening cf the present school
year and occasioned an interesting
discussion in student meetings and
through the columns of the college
paper. A recent motion before the
associated student body to curtail
formal functions even to a greater
extent than during the period of tin
war was tabled, but the measure had
many advocates. ,■
The rule adopted by the joint com
mittee is to the effect that all Fri
day evening social events must be
scheduled in advance by the social
committee, and must conclude by
11:30.
MUSIC RECITAL

feting of the grain grower,**

wheat director and president V*
United States Grain c^ r J^'
Saturday in Spokane, wai
rore the meeting of the e £^
commerce Tuesday by Dean E «
Johnson of the college of agriculJ
it the State College. Dean j oh *
outlined some pf the fe*g»
-he farmers, as registered at the Zl
ing. and remarked that the meZ
was one of much value to the IS
« of the wheat producing *"
on. and one of the most helpful '
-ions ever held in the state.
From the time of the establishment
it the grain corporation there had
been much criticism by the farm*,
one of the foremost objections beine
against the government grades th
growers contending that the grades
established were not sufficiently ela.
tic and made possible profiteering by
the millers and elevator men The
farmers argued before Director
Barns that there has been too much
No. 2 wheat sold in comparison with
No. 1, and intimations were rife that
some millers and elevator men" had
mixed the two grades to secure a No.
1 rating on the entire lot, the mix
ture resulting In their own profit a"nd
netting nothing to the farmer.
Claims were also made that there
is too great a dlfferentatlon in the
pri.ee between No. 1 and No. 2 wheat
the established differential . bein:
three cents. The farmers suggested
that the difference in price be fixed
a*, one cent on pound basis with a re
duction of one cent per pound per
bushel from the standard weight for
all underweight wheat. The sugges
tion, according to Dean Johnson, wis
received quite favorably by Director
Barnes, and possibilities for favorable
consideration of the proposal are not
remote.
Another specific grievance of the
fanner was noted in which the farm
er himself was id error, due to an
erroneous impression of the real con
ditions. The farmers contended that
a bushel of wheat weighing 56 or 51 j
pounds would make as much flourm J
a bushel of 60 pounds, standard j
weight. This is net true and tbe
farmers were set right on the Ques
tion by the director.
The farmers criticized the grain
corporation for attempting to male
the minimum price established the
maximum price. Director Barnes ad
mitted that this v was done, and that
it was the Intention at the outset to
follow this course during the war.
With the signing of the armistice,
however, certain grades of wheat
went above the set price, and today
hard wheat brings considerably mora
than the minimum set by the govern
ment.
Dr. F. F. Nalder also discussed the
Spokane meeting, from an education
al point of view, and in concludine
urged the value and need of a con
tinuous campaign of education amom
us all.
