While no change occurred In the leadership of the Individual scorers of the Facifio Coast Ics Hockey Associa tion during the last week, the official averages Just released by President Frank Patrick and which Include last night's 3-to-2 Vancouver victory over beattle, show that -the race has tight ened. Bernle Morris, of Seattle, still retains the top of the heap, but the work of Pr. Gordon Roberts, of the Vancouver Millionaires, in the last two contests has cut the lead to five points, Last week at this time Dr. Roberts was in fourth position, but now he is in second place with 28 points to his credit. So far the Millionaire has sagged the net 22 times, which is more than any other athlete, but his assists total but six, while Morris has 20 goals and 13 assists. Record Seems Sure to Go. There seems to be little chance for the league scoring record to remain. During the 1914-15 season "Cyclone' Taylor, of Vancouver, B. C, who has led the circuit for the last three sched ules, scored 23 goals and 22 assists, for a total of 45 points. This is the circuit record. "Frenchy" LAlonde was the best at the end of the season ot 1912 with 27 goals and in those days no record was kept of the assists. In 1912-13 Tommy Dunderdale, now a Portland uncle Sam, netted the puck on 24 occasions, but he assisted on only five trips. "Cyclone" Taylor then came along with 21 goals and 15 assists, fol lowed by his high-water mark of 23 goals and 22 assists in 1914-15. Last year "Cyclone" had 22 goals and 13 assists, a total of 35 points. Taylor was in line to repeat this Winter, but just when he was getting under way Old Doc Appendicitis op erated on him. He has been doing re markably well here at home of late. and he fully expects to be back In harness next Tuesday at Portland. The other scorers of the circuit have such a start on him that it is not likely he will figure in the scoring records this drive. Nine More Games Left. The Seattle Mets and the Portland Uncle Sams have nine more games to play during the 1916-17 season, while both Spokane and Vancouver have 10 , more contests to get rid of. Whichever septet wins the title of the association this time a new record in point of losses will be established. In previous seasons the winning club has not "lost more than six contests. and to keep within that mark Seattle or v ancouver will have to "go straight' the remainder of this year, which does not seem probable, the way the vari ous contingents have been bunchlne-. In 1914-15 Vancouver dropped but four affairs, while last Winter the chain pion Uncle Sams lost five embroglios. The individual scoring records to date follow: Player, club Goals. Ass'ts. Pts.

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 28. (Special.) Duffy Lewis was here today long enough to deny emphatically that he Is one of the ringleaders in the heralded baseball strike. He admits he has sent back the contract submitted by the Boston Red Sox, but it had no bearing on the fraternity's stand. "It is simply a question of salary," he explains. "I have been treated too fairly and nice by the Red Sox to flare up with talk of strike." Relative to the strike situation, Lewis said: "I do not believe in the jirocedure of the players' airing their grievances in public It certainly does not do the gajiie any good, and brings-l about a lot of harm."

MPPODROMEBILTIPTOP SEVERAL ACTS ARE GOOD ENOUGH FOR HEADLINERS. Skilled Jugglers. Happy Comedians, Daring; Wire Performer, Slnsers and Drama Make Up Programme. A tiptop bill with the Kerville family as headliner, but with several acts quite good enough for headllners, opened yesterday at the Hippodrome, and won more popularity than Is gen erally accorded a show. The Kervilles, besides being able to shoot and catch billiard balls on the foreheads with the eyes shut, have a keen sense of comedy that adds a .lot to the act. Two men, one the genius of the billiard balls and the other a skinny, comic bellboy, not without skill, and the girls con stitute the clever company. From comedy to the hlejhly dramatic goes the audience when tn curtain rises on a beautiful senorlta and her American suitor, who take the audience back to the golden days of California, to "The Padre," in the Santa Clara mission. Perfectly stunning costumes are worn, and the kindly old padre. with his philosophy and advice, wins j the hearts of alL There is a romance. a burly, proud Spaniard, and exquisite scenery, all of which help to make the sketch highly attractive. A bit of song by good voices is another fine feature. Another act that serves to please the audience sends the house into roars of laughter that brings back repeatedly the Circle Comedy Four, who are old favorites with Portland vaudeville audiences. Song and comedy of the keystone style are their attributes. Thrills are what Hal Hall gives the audience. He takes their breath away 1 with his dare-deviltry, as he slides down a wire ever the heads of admirers. r oriunaieiy, ne s bkuiiui ana aoesn t fall, and is able to do many more tricks on his wire. A bit o' Scotch is added to the bill by Misses Day and West, billed as the Scotch Thistle and the Girl from Dixie, who are likable and talented and have good number. Just as popular Is Hilda, the little Swedish violinist, with her quaint music and still .quainter costume and speech. The seventh episode of Pearl of the Navy" is offered. BIRTH CONTROL IS TOPIC REV. A. A MORRISON HOLDS IT IM PORTANT IN EVOLUTION. Child Welfare Sermon Used to Brine Out Idea That Children Have RISht to Be Well Bora." Birth control propaganda as a means of assuring all children who come into the- world of "the right to be well born" was held by the Rev. A. A, Morrison to be an element of Importance and neces sity in the future evolution toward full social Justice. This point was brought out In his sermon yesterday morning preached upon the general subject of child wel fare, at the Trinity Episcopal Church. "Who would, as the expression is. wish upon a child that diabolical strug gle of life which anyone, would desire that he might avoid?" he said. "Who will say that It is a greater evil to withhold existence from a child. when the very condition of existence into which it must come if it is per mitted to be born, is bound to be a con dition of misery and degradation?" Dr. Morrison declared emphatically that on all society rests the responsi bility of children who grow up into lives of criminality. While he main tained the Tightness of giving such knowledge to humanity as will tend to I prevent the birth ol children into con ditions which can never be productive of happy or useful growth and life, he declared the duty of the state to see that every effort is used to assure the children who are born of the best pos sibl living conditions. "Christianity is democratic and so cialistic. If It means anything, it means one for all and all for one. Tou cannot escape the responsibility to the other fellow s children. "In speaking today on child welfare I have hoped to encourage everyone to lend a hand in any conceivable way he can, for better opportunities for those children who are to come, and to help the sad lot of those who are already here. TODAY IS BUNDLE DAY OUTGROWN GARMENTS NEEDED FOR POOR SCHOOL CHILDREN. Many Youngsters Compelled to Remain at Home Because They Are Not Provided With Clothing;. ' Today Is "Bundle day." Shoes, coats, dresses and suits for school boys and girls are needed by the social service department of the Port land Parent-Teacher Associatioins. Anyone naving garments, shoes or underwear that has been outgrown and is still in good repair, will greatly as sist the social service department by sending these articles in a bundle to the headquarters at Fourteenth and Johnson streets. The garments col lected will be sent to the various dis tricts where there are children unable to attend school because they lack proper clothing. Mrs. W. I. Swank Is acting chairman In the absence, of Mrs. C. J. Devereaux. The clothing is supplied to the needy families through the agency of friend ly visitors and teachers, who know who are deserving. The gifts are given In a tactful manner and without the know edge of the other children in the school. In this way the little people who are poor do not have any slights nor are their feelings ever hurt. At the time of the last appeal for bundles, there was a generous response. Now, while there are few cases of un employment, there are many families In- which there are poorly fed and badly clothed children and they cannot attend school this cold weather unless someone gives them warm coats, shoes, stockings and underwear. BOARD IS IN NO HURRY SCHOOL DIRECTOR MAT NOT BE NAMED AT NEXT MEETING. Mrs. S. M. Ilium a tier, E. B. MacNaugb.- ton and F. A. Ball in Considered Possible Appointees- Members of the Board of Education will be in no great hurry to choose successor to nil the unexpired term ol Samuel P. Lockwood, who resigned Saturday because he felt he was an In harmonious factor. The successor may be named at the meeting of the Board next Thursday and the matter may be deferred until another meeting. The three opponents to Dr. J. Francis Drake at the election last year are con sidered "not impossible" candidates and the choice of one of the three would be. say members of the Board, "a gracious act." The resignation then brings to no tice Mrs. S. M. Blumauer, E. B. Mac NauKhton and F. A. Ballin as possible members. Among these three Mr. Mac Naughton. having received the greatest number of votes, might be considered as the one having the best chance ot anDointment. The appointment of a member makes his tenure a three-and-a-half-year term, as Mr. Lockwood s term would not have expired until June, 1920. Mrs. Emma Klino Dead. CORVALLIS, Or., Jan. 28. (Special.) Mrs. Emma T. Kline, widow of the late S. L. Kline, died at her home in Cor vallls Sunday morning as a result of mycarditis, which had confined her to her home for the past three months. She Is survived by a son. Walter H. Kline, of Corvallis, and a daughter. Mrs. E. A. Taylor, of Portland. The funeral will he held in San Fran cisco Wednesday and interment will be in Peace Cemetery, where her husband was burled a few years ago.

Owners of windjammers are experiencing considerable difficulty in finding mates for deep-sea voyages. The salary for mates has now reached S100 a month, but even at this high figure men are very scarce. Th berths on eteam vessels, because of their lucrative nature and the certainty of the length of voyages. Is said to be the cause of the dearth of mates for the sailing ves- sels.
