ball team won its second game of the
season yesterday afternoon when the
Cadets topped the High School of
Commerce five on the T. M. C A.
floor by a score of 29 to 13. The con
test was featured by rough play on
the part of both teams. The Cadet five
outplayed their opponents in all de
partments of the game and their fast
combination playing was what en
abled them to pile up the points.
Yesterday's time was the last or
the season for the Commerce quintet
and thev failed to make as good
showing as they did during the middle
of the season.

11 and in the second 20 minutes of
play the cadets tos.sers held the book
keepers to one basket while they
marked up a total of 13 points.

the floor well and is a good shot

Many Radical Changes to Be Sug
gested but Few Expected
to Be Passed.
NEW YORK. March 11. The first
formal meeting of the football rules
committee in several years will be
held tomorrow night. It is generally
expected the conference will be at
tended by the entire 14 members, rep
resenting colleges nd universities
from all sections. While a number
of radical changes in the playing
rules probably will be suggested, it
is believed but few will receive more
than perfunctory consideration.
Among suggestions advanced which
may be offered for consideration are:
Attempted goal kick following
touchdown to be made from regular
scrimmage formation In the manner
of a field goal; a reduction of four
and a half feet In tne space between
goal posts, which at present are
placed 18 feet and six inches apart
that periods of the game be measured
by a certain number of plays Instead
of 15-minute quarters; that a punted
ball which strikes on tne field of play
and then rolls across the goal lin
shall be put in, play where it first
struck instead of in the 20-yard line.
One more radical rule change, ad
vanced unofficially, includes a pro
posal to credit a team with a certai
number of points according to the to
tal yardage gain while in uninter
rupted possession of the ball, an ex
tra period of play where a game ends
in a tie and varying rules for touch
downs made in conditions involving
team play as oppoved to touchdowns
scored from fumbled balls and inter'
cepted attack.
MERCHANDISE SHOOT SUNDAY
LOCAL LADS ON BUY CARD
TRIO OF PORTLAND BOXERS TO
FIGHT IN SOUTH.
Fourth Event in Series Will Be on
50 Targets.

chandise shoots being staged thi
year by the Portland Gun club will be
held over the' Everding park traps
Sunday. The event will be on 50 tar
gets and will be shot under the added-
bird handicap system.
Five prizes will be up to the win
ning shooters, and as previous shoots
of this kind have proved very popu
lar with the members, a record turn
out is expected.
Another reason which predicts
number will be at the traps Sunday Is
the registered tournament scheduled
to be held March 20 and 21 at the
Portland Gun club, at which 400 reg
istered tar hawks will be thrown.
Herbert B. Newland. president of
the Portland Gun club, announced
yesterday that Charley Spencer, the

shooter, will be here for the regis
tered shoot March 20 and 21. Spencer
averaged better than 96 per cent last

Alex Trambltas Meets "Kid" Her-
Man in Main Event With Gor
. man and Mascot Also Fighting.
Portland will be "well represented
on tonight's boxing card In San Fran
cisco with Alex Trambltas meeting
Tilly "Kid" Herman in the main
event and Joe Gorman and Billy Mas
cott boxing in the preliminaries.
Trambltas and Herman have fought
twice In San Francisco. Their first
match was a draw and In the second
Herman was awarded a close decision.
The Mexican welterweight knocked
out the highly touted Fred Murphy,
former amateur champion of the Pa
cific coast, last Friday night at
Dreamland rink, so Alex will be in
for a tough match If Herman travels
at that rate tonight. '
Joe Gorman meets Dave Shade,
while Mascott tangles with Danny
Edwards. Gorman and Mascott do
not seem to 'object to boxing down
near the bottom of the card in San
FrancHico or Oakland, and It is a
cinch that they are not getting any
diamond-studded medals, but . when
their services are wanted here they
want main events and a lease on the
postoffice. - There are plenty of good
boxers in this neck of the woods and
plenty in San Francisco who are
willing to come here and box reason
ably, so the matchmakers are not
growing - gray-haired over any demands.
Bobby Ward, the -St. Paul light
weight, who fought around Portland
several times last winter, is back
home and busy. He will meet a mid
dle western boxer named Jack Whit
taker In the semi-windup of the
Ritchie Mitchell-Willie Jackson bout

Mercier. And at all three of these
famous banquets, the only cigarette
served by the hosts was Fatima.

Facts like these make FatimVs
place among cigarettes unique.
A few years ago, the "proper

would have been an expensive,
fancy. boxed, straight . Turkish
cigarette.
Today, things are different.
Men base their choice on taste
rather than price. That Fatima
should be so clearly the choice
of men who can afford anything
they like, shows that most smok

Turkish tobacco in their cigar

Drainage Project Held Injurious
to Sportsmen as Well as to In.
te rested Property Owners.
SALEM, Or, March 11. (Special.)
That it is of vital. Interest to the
property owners about Malheur lake
to organize, employ the best legal
talent available, and make a fight
before the state land board to keep
the Malheur wild fowl breeding resort
Intact, was the opinion expressed in
a letter written by E. W. Nelson,
chief of the United States bureau of
biological survey, to Fred Otley of
Lawen, Harney county, and referred
to Percy A. Cupper, state engineer,
here today.
"As you are aware," reads Mr. Nel
son's letter, "the biological survey has
charge of the federal bird reserva
tion and is deeply interested in main
taining Malheur as one of the great
wild fowl breeding resorts of the
United States. There is no question
that if the water of the Silvles and
Blitzen rivers is diverted for the ben
efit of the lands now being exploited
by two companies that the marsh
lands around Malheur lake will be
come worthless alkali flats..
"I estimate that the value of the
lands which will be destroyed around
the lake by the diversion of water
necessary to keep it at the ordinary
level would be more than a million
dollars. Tlje Interests of land owners
around the lake and the government
in maintaining this bird reserve are
Identical, and I shall be glad to be
of any assistance that I can in help
ing maintain a water supply in order
to perpetuate the lake.
"W. L. Finlay has beea conducting
a campaign to have the state cede its
reservation to the United States. If
this were done and the land accepted
by the government, the latter could
then take part in defending its inter
ests. At present the active defense
appars to lie in the hands of the land
owners."
