ner. Andrews played In three times aa
many scratch doubles tournaments as
hobr. who like many others, failed to
show up strong enough tn anything
but handicap play, which would en
title him to the place of second In a
doubles placing. Starr and Jordan
played a consistent game, when com
edy waa eliminated, and ara easily
given third plane, but the showings of
Kats and llbert would put them
ahead of Zollinger and Ferrie aa a team
this year, though the latter team n

Wakrman during the aeaaon played In
three tournamenta which were not
handl.-ap altalra. while Ewlna played
In four, the scores yn the latter the
best of the deal and entitled rightfully
to third place, with Wakeman occupy
Ins; fourth.
Another surprise which the ranking
committer has sprung Is tha placing
of Bla.-k In fifth place, ahead of both
Andrews and Cooke. Tournament ecoree
alone show that Andrewa should oc
cupy fifth place with Cooke alkth and
Black seventh. Black played In but
one scratch tournament during the
year, the Oregon state, where he met
and defeated J. H. Knight. K. Van Loan
and J. B. Edgar, not especially easy
men br any means. Than be lost to
Wakeman by the ecoree of -. -.
a good showing against a fast man.
In the esse of Andrews, he met the
etrongaat men of the Northwest this
year and made an especially good
snowing. He played In tour scratch
tournaments during the year and only
lost to such men as kmerson. Wicker
sham, champion fchwengert and Tyler.
How a ranking ran be made on one
a. rati h tourney, placing men above
those who have appeared and made
good showings In four la beyond the
underatandlng of the knowledge of
ranking ae It should be carried out and
la carried out nationally in tennis.

Cooke Math by Right.
T at 8. B Cooke la acknowledged to
have trade a showing entitling him to
sixth place goes without saying. He
made a better all-around record by
adores man iid mark, appeared In
more tournament, and without ejueatlon
Is a stronger man, moat evident to
anyone who has saen the two men play.
Cooke appeared In two scratch tourna
ments and lost In each to Wak.man
and Wickersham respectively, taking
one set from the former. Ae appar
ently baa little effect on Cooke's play
ing, aa he still wields a stesdr racquet
and undoubtedly could put up a strong
fight for sixth place should he ever
meet Black In tournament play.
Tht Harrtgan Is given the place

atlsfaetlon. Rosenfeld played a steady
game during the year, yet he was de
feated by Harrlgsn In straight sets,
tn the case of Roatnfeld. tn
the position ahead of Shives, the for
mer showed his superiority over the
latter only after three hard sets, the
first of which Shlvee took In the Ore

Roeenfrld carried off the honors by a

In the ranking of the doubles, tha
committee made a good choice for first

the local and International champion

Bowling Is rapidly becoming a more
popular sport In Portland this season
than at any time previously, for the
various league and Intersections! com
petitions are occurring so frequently
that the alleys In Portland are hardly
spacious enough to accommodate the
toorneya as well a the transient play-era.
Two league are now operating at
the alley In the Medical building and
theses team occupy most of the time at
that place. Some h'gh-clas gamea
have been played In the last two
weeks and the bowlers are showing
marked Improvement right along. All
the teams so fsr entered haue bowled
upwards of sis games to date and have
shown fine averagea.
Of the two leagues now being ope

FULLY EQUIPPED
Look This Car Over
in Our Sales Room
F. O. B. PORTLAND
The: Mode I PO. 5Toddord has arrived,
FULL EQUIPMENT INCLUDES high-grade mohair top, wind shield, magneto, Stromberg Carbur
etor, Goodrich tires, robe rail. 3 oil lamps, 2 gas lamps, generator, horn, jack, tools and tire repair
outfit; 112-inch wheel base; pswerfal motor, measuring 4x4.
A Perfectly Appointed Car
Throughout,
The announcement of a large
fire-passenger touring car, fully
equipped, for $1450 and bearing
a Stoddard nameplate means a
sensation in the motor world.
The Stoddard Company has al
ways been ultra-conservative in
its advertising. Extravagant
praise for its many elegant mod
els has never been one of its pol
icies. Eather we have preferred
to let the cars speak for them
selves. This new car, with its 4x414
motor, is simply another ' Stod
ard thoroughbred. It has those
aristocratic lines which you all
want in a motor car, no matter
what the price. The detail of
finish is immediately noted. It
has everything found in the
larger cars, with no suggestion
of cheapness in any line or me
chanical feature.
And when you take this car
off our salesroom floor it is not
necessary to immediately ex
pend several hundred dollars for
necessary extras. It comes fit
ted with the highest grade mo
hair top, a glass front, magneto,
Stromberg carburetor, Goodrich
tires, a set of three oil lamps and
two gas lights, a generator, robe
rail, horn, jack, tools, tire repair
outfit and additional equipment
seldom furnished with a car.
If you are interested in this
class of car you cannot buy
- without fully inspecting this
new Stoddard.
What You Get When
You Buy a Model
"M" Stoddard
First of all you get a large,
handsome, finely finished and
elegantly appointed five-passenger
touring car.
It .is not a small, cheap ap
pearing automobile. The wheel
base is 112 inches. The tonneau
is large and roomy, easily ac
commodating three passengers.
This long wheel base, with its
three-quarter elliptic springs on
the rear, makes one of the easi
est riding . machines on the
American market. And those
who have ridden in hard-ribing
cars can fully appreciate wThat
this one feature is worth.
The motor of the Model M is
4 by 4!2 and develops in excess
of 30-horse power. That means
enough power to follow the
highest powered automobile ever
made. It will carry six people
up any 10 per cent grade on the
high gear.
The motor is of the famous
Renault type, En Bloc. This
means a compact, powerful
"Bulldog" motor with many
good points to recommend it.
The frame is pressed steel,
the same as is found on cars
costing many times its price.
The transmission is the same
as is found in our $3000 models.
Our front axle is of the I
beam type, not tubular, as is
found on a majority of cars un
der $2000.
And above all, do not. forget
that behind this car stands a
factory with over six years of
success behind it. A Stoddard
guarantee means something.
Every up-to-the-minute feature
of motor car construction has
been put in this model. It is a
fine, large motor car in every
detail.
The Stoddard sensational
Model "M" the complete
ly equipped five - passenger
touring car at $1450 is ready
for delivery. A prompt de
livery date guaranteed on
your order.
