BAGPIPES WILL
STIR THE BLOOD
Scotch Arouse Interest in Soc
cer Game With English
Team This Afternoon.
CONTEST AT 3:30 O'CLOCK
Scotchmen Are Favorites In the Bet
ting in View of Former Victory.
This May Be the Last
Game of the Season.
An illustration of the progress associa
tion football has made In Portland In the
past 12 months is visible in the opinion
of numerous local soccer "sharks," who
aver that the teams selected thin ye"ar to
represent England and Scotland in the
annual international series are fully 50
per cent stronger than those which
played the Internationals last year. Part
of this Increase in strength has been
pained by the arrival of new players,
but much of It Is due to the Improved
combination that developed among the
men aa they became accustomed to one
another.
The newcomers have had. to be good to
.win places and the following list of men
on the two teams this year who were
Dot on last season's roster shows how
many classy players have come to Port
land or have taken up the game inside
the year: Bennett, Dick, Stevenson.
Andrew Matthew. J. K. Mackle. Hanson,
Lawrence and McNiclioIas. Of the re
maining 14 men who will appear tomor
row. Dean. Jago. Hughes and Short
played little last year. Only about half
the men are thus taken from the vet
erans who were among the first associa
tion boosters in Portland.
The music of bagpipes will again stir
the fighting blood of the Scotch this af
ternoon. That the English will have a
fife and drum band to offset the disliked
music of their rivals is rumored. In view
of the Scotch victory two weeks ago,
betting is around 2 to 1 In -their favor.
Kickoff will be at 3:30. at the league
baseball grounds, with Mountz, formerly
of San Francisco, refereeing. It may
be the last game of the '07-'o8 season.

ALBAXY GIRLS
CHAMPIONS
College Bloomer Five Defeats the O.
A. C. Invincible.
ALBA XT, Or., March 6. (Special.) Bjr
the decisive score of 14 to 6, the girls
basketball team of the Albany High
School won tonight from the hitherto un
defeated girls of the Oregon Agricultural
College. The victory came as a great
surprise, and virtually gives Albany High
School the championship of the state, as
Albany has won the honors of the Wil
lamette Valley High School Leasts and
the O. A. C. has won all its games among
the colleges.
The game was one of the fastest and
fiercest contests ever played in this city.
For the first five minutes great defensive
work prevented scoring and then Albany
started whirlwind playing and rolled yp a
10-to-3 score on the surprised collegians in
the first half. The playing was harder in
the second half with a 4-to-3 score in Al
pany's favor. Albany scored six field
goals, while O. A. C. made only one, the
other scores being made from the foul
line.

MISCATIXKS AVI X A GAME
Defeat Y. M. C. A. Basketball Five
by a Very Narrow Margin.
That the Muscatlnes are a somewhat
overrated team was the general verdict
last night, when after a hotly con
gested basketball game they won from
the Y. M C. A. by three points. It is
possible that had the whistle been in
the hands of a non-partisan a draw
would have been played, more nearly
expressing the merits of the teams.
As a result of doubtful decisions on
the part of the referee the local team
was neglectful In markinpr lt men and
at least three times sacrificed baskets
in this respect.
At the outset the Y. M. C. A. bade fair
to win. rapidly putting up 8 points to a
solitary foul throw made by their
opponents. It was very noticeable that
the MuKcatine men remained perfectly
cool and left the association to do the
Jiard running where possible.
The first half was conspicuous for
the star playing of Russell, a new ac
quisition of the Y. M. C. A. Lurking
tinder the basket he was responsible
1or several of the smartest baskets
thrown, in particular making points
out of a throw from the center of the
field which would have been creditable
to any player. Towards the latter end
of the first half the superior training
of the Muscatlnes showed as they drow
lip to the lead held by the home team,
finishing only a point behind, the score
at the Interval being 17 to 16.
With the resumption of play both
it cams threw their hearts into the work,
and scoring on both sides, while steady,
was remarkably even. With the points
9-9 a call of two fouls at once on the
,Y. M. C. A., rightly deserved the hiss
ing, which Physical Director Grllley at
once suppressed. At the best, this was
one of the -doubtful cases where the (
referee used his power rather unwisely.
After this the home team threw away
two baskets, allowing the visitors to
obtain them with ease. Within a tew
minutes, making a final rally. Port
land scored again on a foul throw and
a moment later the whistle blew with
a second-half score of 14 to 10.
Taken all in all it was one of the
most exciting games seen in Portland
for a long time and & big audience
witnessed it. Williams in particular
did well, but he was helped because all
the team played up to him. and In this
was one of the greatest secrets of the
visitors' play. In foul throwing they
did excellently, but with Hartman at
the top of his form the difference in
this respect was not very noticeable
between the teams. Fisher, of the
Muscatlnes, was referee.
The Muscatlnes are ta be entertained
tiy the members of the M. A. A. C. to
morrow. The line-up of the teams was:

DEFEATED BY THE CHAMPIONS
Y. M. C. A. Second Team Beaten by
Columbia at Basketball.
In a hot game with Columbia Univer
sity, the holders of the interscholastlc
championship, the Y. M. C. A. second
team on their own floor were beaten by
the score of 37 to 32 last night. At the
beginning of the game the Association
boys opened strong, securing a strong
lead. Pauch being mainly instrumental in
this, securing 12 out of a total of IS
points In the first half. Towards the end
of the first half the schoolboys made
things hum. finishing only a point be
hind the leaders.
The champions played a good game all
around, while, though bright In spots, the
Y. M. C. A. were decidedly weak in
marking their men, at one time allowing
six shots to be taken at the basket, each
one in quick succession. Livingstone held
the whistle.
The line-up was:

CANST. Or., March 5. (To the Editor.)
In last Wednesday's Oregonian the newe
report referring to Canby, Or., and entitled
"Reform Council Wrangles," contained a
number of half-truths which, for the sake
of the best Interests of Canby. ouffht to be
supplemented by a fw facts not mentioned
In the report.
John Zeek, who resigned from the Coun
cil, was not elected by the "reform" party,
as Implied, but was a "hold-over" and up
to January 1, ltM8, had been voting to
maintain saloons in Canby. Last Fall, how
ever, being aroused by the startling1 dis
closure which followed In th wake of
Charles Ktnzel's death, he changed his mind,
and was strong In co-operation with the "re
formers.' He was criticised and abused,
not by the " "reformers" but by the
whiskyltes" or "wet." who even went so
far as to offer "boodle" money to bring him
back to the "wet" side. He has told us that
he refused this offer.
The "wet councilmen "have caused most
of the wrangle, having done all they could
to defeat the will of the people. During the
month of January, In the absence of some
of the "reform" councilmen. they called a
special session of the Council and by un
manly trickery allowed a surveying bill
which the reformers" had at the January
meeting opposed on the ground that the
survey was unauthorized, incorrect and
Illegal. The "reformers" resented such
trickery and the battle has been on ever
since. Unfortunately, one of the four men
elected to maintain a "dry" town has
trained with the "wets" and has taken
every sign of an excuse to side with them
and defeat the will of the people.
The city has spent much less money dur
ing the last two months than It did in De
cember. Tet, during the last administration
veryllttle was spent for roads within the
city limits proper or for general improve
ments, and the Council refused to build
sidewalks. 80 the Implication that while
Canby had saloon such improvements were
abundant, is unwarranted.
Only a few of the business men "have
grown tired of the whole matter." and they
are on the "wet" side. Unless some one of
the four men elected to oppose saloons here
turns traitor. Canby will still be dry.
