A. league with them last Sun day, and the biggest share of the gloi¡y comes to l^nts. Pink Dear- dorff and Red Bill Moore, Lowry’s undefeated Ix-nts battery again proved invincible letting the Crown Willamette tossers down with three hits for one run, Pink striking eight of the opposition. Five of the I ren workers hail from lienta. The gaine was one of the cleanest and fastest affairs ever staged in Portland semi- pro circles, being free from argu ments of any kind Each side made one error, -tnd sparkling plays were made all through the game. The Oregon City lads scored the first run in the sixth inning on a walk, a hit and an error. In the seventh, Moore got a pretty single and stole second, third and home for the ty ing run. In the ninth inning,, the Ironworkers being last at bat, drove in the winning run when Garbadine beat out a hit to short, went to sec ond on a hit by F. Bird, and cross ed the plate on a long Texas leaguer- by Al Jones, score two to one. le-ardorff and Moore were the shin ing lights of the game, although every man on the team played in first class form. “Mascot” Hubler made some good running catches in the 'field The cup which was won by the Ironworkers will be placed on display in Lents as soon as it has been engraved with the names of the players and the team. in a slug fest which was featured by errors and poor base running. For a time the Oregon City boys had it all their own way, but in the eighth inning with the score 11 to 3 against them the Wooodmer refused to «spare that tree, and in two in- nings had tied the score. but the Papermakers were able to squeez? the final score 12 to 11. The social and moral arguments for an unsparing profits tax are to mv mind unanswerable. To per- indiviifuals and corporations to enrich themselves of the dreadful calamity of war is repugnant to one’s sense of right and justice and gravely detrimen tal to the war morale of the people. • Owing to the fact that the game The objection tn a very heavy excess profits tax which the Crown Willamette team in peace time rests not so much on equitable grounds won from Arleta was thrown out, as on the ground that on the one hand it does not and the Hesse Martin team will have to cannot accomplish the social purpose aimed at, and defend their title against Arteta next on uie oiiie* ..ana it tends to hurt trade, discourage enterprise and burden Sunday.
