Coach Billy Bryan's Benson Tech
basketball team put a crimp fin the
Lincoln high school five chances ol
oliig- through the season with a clean
lata yesterday when the Mechanics
won from the Rallsplitters on the
Washington high floor by the narrow
margin of one point. The final score
was 25 to 24. with the victory for
Benson, putting- them at the top In
the league, having- won three games
nd lost none.
The game was one of the most
closely contested affairs that has been
played so far this season. Lincoln
two-point lead in the first, few min
utes of play was the only time dunni
the contest in which they were on th
Jong end of the score, although they
managed by hard playing to tie the
count in the middle of the second hair,
xraking it 18 alL
The defeat of the Lincoln team,
which has held the championship for
two years, came as a surprise to the
basketball fans and may be anno
tated somewhat to overconfidence on
the part of the Lincoln players.
Lincoln started the scoring by get
ting a field basket in the first five
minutes of play, but three sensational
shots in rapid succession by w Innle
Scott, the small Benson forward, put
the Mechanics in the lead and they
were not headed during the rest of
the game. The Benson team left the
floor at the end of the first with the
core 14 to 12 in their favor.
After the first ten mlnu'es of play
in the second half the score was tied
18 to 18, and from then on it was a
battle royal with both teams striving
bard for the necessary points which
would mean victory. The Mechanics
Jumped into the lead again when
Scott and Kleinau came through with
one basket apiece. Dave Wright, Lin
coin forward, cuf the Mechanics' lead
down to one point by getting one
basket from the floor and converting
one foul shot, but another converted
free throw by Scott and a long, diffi
cult field basket by Kenneth Hill
spelled defeat for the Rallsplitters.
Leggis8 scored the last basket for
Lincoln, but it was not enough to
turn defeat into victory.
To Scott and Kleinau of Benson
roes most of the credit for the Me
chanics' points. The former got four
field baskets and converted three
fouls, while the latter connected for
five baskets from the floor.
Benis made one basket for Benson,
while Hill scored the other two points.
The guarding of Hill and Gelsey was
the feature of the game.
Dave Wright led the Lincoln team
in scoring, with - three baskets and
four fouls, while Leggitt. Beck and
Cole each made two baskets from the
floor, Mische scoring the other field
basket. Summary:

Suffering Child Thinks of
Hungry People.
Hospital Patient Solicits Funds
From Friend Who Visit Bed
aide. LITTLE GERALDINE DTE, 10
years old, who was terribly
burned as the result of an accident
at a halloween party last October, is
lying in her cot in room 208, Good
Samaritan hospital, suffering con
stantly and making a brave and
patient fight for her life against
heavy odds.
Her seared little body is protected
from the touch and weight of the bed
clothes by a framework that sur
rounds it, and she can make no move
ment except turn her head from side
to side.
Yet little Geraldlne is a valiant
worker in the present near east relief
campaign and through her efforts and
sympathy substantial aid, la being
secured for the 250,000 starving chil
dren of Armenia.
Tuesday Mrs. Otto Grice, who is
chairman of the milk-bottle division
of the near east relief campaign,
called at the hospital to see the little
sufferer and in the course of the con
versation told her little friend about
the starving Armenian children and
of the campaign to -help them. When
Geraldlne heard about the bottles
that are being put out to receive con
tributions she Immediately asked if
she might have a bottle put beside
her bed, with a big sign on it telling
about the hungry Armenians.
That evening a brightly polished
quart milk bottle, gaily decked with
a pictured card, lettered in red, and
with a red seal and windings of red
tape, was sent out to Geraldlne, and
it is already In process of becoming
well filled with funds which the little
girl has solicited.

ARMORY COMPETTTIOX SHOWS
CLOSE results.
Overseas Company Gives Snpcrb
Exhibition of Finished Work
Under Sergeant Cooley.
With an exhibition of marching and
gun drill that proved nearly perfect,
members of company C 162d Infantry,
all veterans of overseas, last night
captured first prize in a competitive
drill with company I of the 3d Ore
gon national guard regiment Com
pany C was a part of the old 3d Ore
gon prior to being sent to France and
is now considering again affiliating
with the national guard as a veteran
organization. The competition between
the two organizations took place at
the armory before a fair-sized crowd.
The new organization drilled first
under the command of Lieutenant
D. D. . Hale. The men made an ex
cellent showing, particularly in march
ing. When the foreign veterans, un
der the leadership of Sergeant Harry
E. Cooley, came upon the floor, bow
ever, it was easily seen that they
possessed an ease of movement and
a maturity of experience which only
months of the work can bring. Th
veterans were superb In the gun drill
and almost equally good at marching.
Sergeants Nugent, Bates and Krauss,
all of the regular service and detailed
in Portland to assist in the drilling
and instruction of the national guard,
acted as judges, while the entire event
was under the direction of Colonel
C. E. Dentler, regular army officer
in charge of national guard instruc
tion throughout Oregon.
CRUELTY OF BOXIXG CONTESTS
PUZZLES COTJXCIL. -
Oregon Society Request for Benefit
Permit Referred to City
Fight Commission.
Are pugilistic contests humane?
This question was raised by mem
bers of the city council when a com
munication from the Oregon Humane
society was read requesting permis
sion to stage a boxing contest to rais
funds required by the society for ad
ditional facilities to conduct its work.
Alter commissioner Jtsigeiow raised
the question of the humanity of box
ing contests. Commissioner Barbur
suggested the staging of a cock fight,
while commissioner Mann favored a
bull fight.
The council finally referred the re
quest to Commissioner Pier to ascer
tain if officials and members of the
American Legion were agreeable, and
also for a conference with members
of the Portland Boxing commission,
the only body in the city authorized
to stage a boxing contest.
LECTURER LOSES TEMPER
Walter Thomas Mills Roasts Van
couver Prunarians.
VANCOUVER, Wash.. Feb. 11.
(Special.) Waiter Thomas MIIIsl lec
turer for the Non-Fartisan league and
triple alliance, is in this section of
the state organizing and lecturing.
He was to have spoken before the
Vancouver chamber of commerce and
the Prunarians tonight when they
were to hold their weekly meeting.
The Prunarians did not know that
the invitation had been extended, and
there is a by-law of the organiza
tion that politics and religion will
not be discussed at any meeting of
the organization, so he could not
make his address.
This caused Mr. Mills to publish a
letter in which he censures the vari
ous civic bodies and which ends:
"Very well, they will not be able
to postpone the election now to pre
vent the hearing of these issues in
the campaign. After that the men
who wish to govern the country but
are afraid to frankly listen to our
case will themselves postpone any fur
ther show in tha government of thi
country."
ITY HALL CLOSED TODAY
One-Day Holiday Granted to All
Municipal Employes.
Following discussion at two meet
ings of the city council it was decided
that the anniversary of the bjrth of
Abraham Lincoln' would be observed
today by the closing of the city hall
and the granting of a one-day holiday
to all city employes.
At the morning session it was de
cided that because of the lack of funds
in the city treasury it would be im
possible to pay approximately $2000
which must be paid for extra help to
replace the policemen and firemen
who must be given one day off if
they are compelled to work today.
Reconsideration of the matter at
a meeting in the afternoon came about
when a resolution by Commissioner
Mann was adopted by the votes of
Commissioners Mann, Pier and Bar
bur. Commissioner Blgelow voted
against the resolution.
As a result the city hall will be
closed all day. The controversy arose
because Lincoln's birthday, although
a legal holiday, is not included in the
ordinance designating holidays to be
observed by the city.

HUMANE QUESTION RAISED
says irs GRAND
After Taking Tanlac Declares
She Will Soon Be as Well
as Anybody.
"T just want you to know and
everybody else to know what this
Tanlac medicine has done for me,"
said Mrs. Emma Briggs, who lives at
48 Crew street, Atlanta, Ga.. when
she called for her second bottle re
cently. "I have been sick so long and suf
fered so much that I feel like I
wouldn't be doing right if I did not
let everybody know what it has done
in my case.
"For the past six or seven years I
have been in a rundown condition,
nervous, weak and at times very
dizzy. I had nervous headaches and
indigestion perfectly awful. My stom
ach was so weak I could not digest
the lightest kind of food. I was so
nervous and depressed. I was simply
all to pieces, and slept very badly. I
become so despondent over my condi
tion that I thought nothing would
help me.
"It certainly was lusky for me when
I heard of Tanlac It Is not like any
other medicine I have taken it seems
to soothe my stomach and is a fine
tonic, too, because my appetite Is good
now, and I digest what I eat.
"I began to eat better, feel better
and sleep better from the very first
dose, and the change in my condition
has been wonderful. I have not
weighed lately, but I know I must
have gained a whole lot in weighf.
Everybody notices how much better I
am looking.
"If anyone had told me that there
was a medicine on earth that would
make me eat and sleep like this Tan
lac has done, I would not have be
lieved it. Actually I do not believe
that there is another medicine on
earth like it. I believe by the time I
get through with another bottle I will
be as well and strong as anybody.
"If people do not believe what I
tell you about my case. Just tell them
to come and see me at my home, and
if I am not there they will find me at
the Blosser Printing company, where I
work."
Tanlac Is sold in Portland by the
Owl Drug Co. Adv.
and while no notice was given as to
when the funeral would be got an
unusually large bouquet and came
down on'the morning train. She was
more pleased to give the flowers to
her friend in life rather than in
death, but was shocked to learn that
he was alive.
As soon as Mr. Brumagin learned
that he was supposed to be dead, he
sent messages notifying his relatives
in different parts of the country that
he yet lived and to disregard any re
port to the contrary.
Harry Smith, after reading of Mr.
Brumagin s death, saw "Bert" cross
ing the street smiling, with hand
extended to greet him.

"I guess the grippe has ma again,"
he answered. "Every bone In my
body aches and my head is stopped

"You've had one sickness after an
other just from being out in all kinds
of weather."
"Well, I have to make good on the
road before I am advanced, grippe or
no grippe." Harry retorted.
"Keep grippe away," eaid Harry's
sister. Edith, who came Into the room
at the nd of the conversation.
"Get a twenty-five cent bos of
Weeks' Break-Up-A-Cold Tablets."
she said. "And take them as th di
rections order. A hot lemonade will
help. If you want to take it"
"Cold tablets always make m dull
and heavy," Harry said.
"Weeks' don't, they're different."
Edith answered. "They Increase your
resistance to cold and grippe. That
Is why you should always insist on
them. And they contain a vegetable
laxative instead of calomel, which is
a mercury compound."
After supper Mrs. Warren bought a
box of Weeks' Break-Up-A-Cold Tab
lets and Harry took them with much
grumbling.
Next morning not a trace of th
cold was left. At breakfast he said
to Edith. "Sis. that hunch of your
about those Weeks' Tablets was tha
best aver. I sur know what to 40
now wba a cold begins."
