It is to be the Hunt Club Stables. Incorporated, with $25,000 capital, of which more than half already has been pledged. Identified with the movement are men who have bed an active part in the Portland Hunt club annual horse shows and have been participants and supporters of the various enterprises" connected with the training and de velopment of riding and driving horses and encouragement of breed ing better animals for purposes of sport and utility. The company will be composed of members of the Hunt club and citizens whose love of the horse causes them to feel an interest in the movement that has for one of its objects such increased activities as will make the fn.ture horse shows of the Pacific In ternational Livestock association one of the most important exhibitions of the kind held annually in t'lis coun try. I'romiiiftii Me Participate.' W. V. Sanderson, president of the Portland Hunt club; Natt Me-Dougall, Fred A. Martin. Claude D. Starr, ec retary of the Hunt club; Ralph Wil bur, Ted Warrens and Julius Meier are some of the men who have be come interested in the enterprise. The Garden Home tract of the Port land Hunt club is a most attractive property, the location of which has been found desirable because it is where the country roads are easily accessible. For training purposes there is the half-mile track, with its oval enclosure that provides an ex cellent polo, ground and steeple chase field! The gently sloping ground,- with setting below the Hunt club community, attractive club-house anti parked grounds make it one of the pretty spots reached by paved roads that render it easily and quickly accessible for the busy city man. Organizers of the Hunt Club Sta bles, Incorporated, plan to acquire for their development a portion of the Hunt club tract, on which the pro jected buildings will be erected. As tentatively planned by Joseph Jacob berger. architect, it provides for a barn 70x140 feet, double the size of the present barn of the Hunt club, which would be utilized in the new structure. , Proponed Structure Ample. Whereas, the present barn has ten box stalls and 28 standing stalls, the new structure would provide accom modations for about 100 horses, with rooms for hostlers, ample harness rooms and with concrete floors throughout, provisions for all sani tary conveniences and a modern ven tilating system. Adjacent to the barn is to be located a riding arena 80x150 feet, embracing the best ideals for indoor training work and suited to staging riding events and show affairs. Along one side of the arena will ex tend a gallery with seating capacity for 380 people, with standing room for 75 additional. The space beneath the gallery will be utilized for the storage of vehicles. At one end of the arena will be the office quarters and locker rooms for members and visitors. The mezzanine floor above the offices will be finished with a wom en's parlor on one side, with spacious rest rooms. At the other end of the mezzanine floor will be a large smoking room and lounging rooms for men. "To encourage the breeding of horses of the best type, both riding and driving animals, is the purpose the members of the Portland Hunt club hope to boost," said Fred" A. Martin. IS OREGON COACH SILENT AFTER TALK WITH CAMPBELL. Wc Can't Lose Bill," Sentiment of Campus Trainer to Take Time Over Resignation. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene. Jan. 10. (Special.) Bill Hayward'a decision whether or not to remain with the University of Oregon ath letic staff is still hanging fire, fol lowing his first conference with President Prince L. Campbell, since Hayward's return from Pasadena. Evidently no decision was reached in the conference, as neither Hayward nor the president would say any thing of what had been done at the niefting. Bill has announced that he has been granted two weeks in which to think over the proposition offered him by the other college which is endeavor ing to secure his services, and that he would probably take all of the allotted time to make up his mind. Hayward, in speaking of leaving his job here, said that it was like leav ing his home, and leaving his friends all behind him. He pictured his method of deciding the matter by saying that he would weigh the loss of his many Oregon friends in one hand an the increased salary that he would receive in the other, to see which was the more valuable. "We can't lose Bill." is the way the campus feels about the matter. Student sentiment reached its high est pitch upon the occasion of he banquet tendered the team last night, when every man in school able to walk, paraded from the campus to the banquet rooms, cheering and de manding to hear from Hayward and Huntington.

Larry Talbot Tied for First Honors With James Martin in Class B; Bryan in Second Hole. With the second annual three cushion handicap billiard tournament at the Rialto now well under way, class is beginning to tell and the games between the best cueists have been exceptionally close. Harve Hicks, who got off to a flying start In class A. continues to hold his lead and Is resting on top of the vic tories and loss column with five straight victories to his credit. Hicks won two games Friday, defeating Max Levinson, 30 to 22, and Moe Ruven, 20 to 27. further clinching his hold on first place. Other results Friday night were: Class B. James Martin defeated Dr. Seelig. 25 to 8, while Larry Talbot won from Jake Weinstein. 25 to 23. and N. Normile, 25 to 23. In Class C E. Roth won from G. A. Vranizan, 20 to 7. As the result of winning two vic tories, Larry Talbot Is now tied for first honors in class B with James Martin, each having won five games and lost only one. Bill Bryan, who rested supreme on top in class B un til last week, took a drop to second hole as the result of Martin's and Talbot's spurt. Talbot's defeat of Jake Weinstein came as a surprise, many of the three-cushion followers having it figured that Jake would be the winner. Bert Cruikshank is giving Hicks a run for the title in class A and has won four games and lost one. Sam Goodland is not so far behind, with five victories and two losses, and has to be figured in the race. George Hart, winner of the title in class A last season, is finding it tougher sled ding this year with so many good cueists back in the fold, and is way down in the percentage column, with two won and three lost. J. Finney is leading the class C players, with six games won and two lost. Finney has played a strong game and is not in the least "fishy" on the hard shots. William Powers and Bill Wilson are fighting it out for the leadership in class D, each having won five games and lost one. Bob Fennell Is not far behind, with four won and one lost. The high runs in each class follow: Class A, Sam Goodland 7; class B, Jake Weinstein 6; class C, J. Mitchell and C. Baker 6; class D. W. R. Phil lips 8. The high run of eight, turned in by Phillips, is the record one of the tour nament and Is likely to stand.

He made his early reputation In Medford, Or., and dur ing his four years at Stanford has added to it continually through his work in track, football, basketball, baseball and golf. Another man on the team who will be sure of his position is "Swede" Righter, Stanford's veteran center.

Or., was Stanford's captain-elect in 1918. and has returned to college this year. He is practically assured of one of the guard positions on the varsity five.

SOUTH PARKWAY FIVE STRONG Victors Over Silent Five Contend ers for Independent Honors. The South Parkway basketball team's defeat of the Silent Five Jast Wednesday night by the score of 52 to 8 niarkes them as formidable con tenders for independent championship honors. All the players on the team are nearly of the same weight and height. In their games they show speed and remarkably accurate pass ing and always are in the best of con dition, which enables them to travel at any pace set by their opponents. The B'nai B'rith club management has extended to the members of the team the privileges and us of the club gymnasium and swimming pool. The members of the team also have the use of the floor at the club which is one of the best spring floors in the city. Manager Sam Tessler is having dif ficulty in arranging games for his team and has written to several out-of-town quintets, but as yet has re ceived no answer. Last year the most noted victories of the Parkway teams were against the Camp Lewis five and The Dalles hoopers. Tessler would like to hear from American Legion teams throughout the state and will give the best teams return games in Portland. Tessler may be reached by writing him in care of the B'nai B'rith club. Thirteenth and Mill streets. EAST APPLAUDS OREGON PAS AD KN A GAME BREAKS DOWN SECTIONAL WALL. Harvard ajid Boston Elated Over Victory, but Accord Wholesome Respect to West. BY LAMAR TOOZK. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 10. (Spe cial.) Oregon lost to Harvard at Pasadena, but western football has achieved a notable victory by reason or the splendid showing of the lemon yellow. Judging by the newspaper reports and opinions of sporting crit'es, "Oregon is responsible for tearing down the wall which formerly separated American football Into two parts, the brand played by eastern institutions, though, previous to the Oregon-Harvard classic, to represent the best that America was capable of productlng, and the brand played by the teams of the west and middle west, formerly regarded as some what better than preparatory school football In comparison vkb eastern football. Though Harvard and Boston are very much elated over the crimson's victory, a wholesome respect is be ing displayed of the slashing attack of the westerners. Everyone, un acquainted with western football, is surprised by the fact that the Oregon backs were able to plow through the once-regarded impregnable Harvard line. Sporting writers admit that Ore gon was the hardest opponent that Harvard went up against auring the season and they are extravagant in their praise of Huntington. Steers and Manerud. One writer said that Steers and Huntington were the two best backs he had ever seen in action, and that the work of Manerud was a revelation. "Shy" Huntington, the Oregon coach, is given credit for productlng such a strong team. Not only did the game create such a favorable opinion of western foot ball, but it has drawn the attention of the east to Oregon; it has been a great advertisement for the state. For two weeks before the game, the Boston papers carried front-page articles about the contest. Already, there is some sentiment for a game in the Harvard stadium next year between Harvard and some western team, preferably Oregon. It would undoubtedly attract as much interest as the Pasadena struggle, maybe more. Regina Would Truin in Euai-ne. EUGENE. Or.. Jan. 10. (Special.) The Regina team of the Western Canadian baseball league would train in Eugene this spring if the citizens here would put up all expenses of the team while here, according to a letter Just received from the management i of the team. There are players iand It la expected that they would be here about a month before the playing season opens. No action has it been taken. BY GEORGE W. COWNE. When the board of directors of th interscholastic basketball league at its meeting last week voted to post pone the opening of the season from January 12 to January 19, it not only permitted the Jefferson High school five, which has been partly disorgan ized by the illness of Coach Qulgley. an opportunity to get on its feet by an extra week of workoirt, but it also gave the other school quintets a chance for an additional period of much-needed practice. Had the open ing game been played this week it would have caught most of the teams unprepared for the grind of a stren uous season. The extra week of drill for the cage men should, however, put the players on edge for the open ing of the season one week from to morrow. Will Have Tut Games. Hill Military academy is slated to play two games in the opening week of the schedule, opening the season against James John next Monday and closing the first week of basketball activities against Benson Tech on Friday. It is a tossup which of the two games will be the hardest for the cadets. The double J quintet, which finished second in the league last year, has three of its first team of last season back, besides a string of last year's second-team players to choose from. Coach Kalmbnch of James John is fortunate in having the services iiKu-iu mis year oi captain "nock Hiatt, Dick Girt and "Scrap Iron" Toole, all letter men of last year. Hiatt and Girt will probably hold down the guard positions while Toole will probably perform as a forward. The other positions on the team will be filled from jthe following list of men who received some experience last year: Vinson and Vrooman, cen ters; Ohm and Hedges, guards, and Hoskins, Willikson and Bauer, for wards. Cochran and Brame, who are attending James John for the first time this year, and who have had considerable experience on basket ball teams in other cities, will put up a hard fight between them to land the center position. Hill's other opponent in the first week of the season is Benson Tech, and from the way the Tech school boys have been showing up in prac tice under the coaching of Billy Bryan they will put up as strong a game against the Cadets as the James John five. Hill, however, with several letter men on the team this year, should give either of the two schools a hard game. Dr. Ernest Estes, coach of the Cadets, has kept the candidates for the team hard at practice in the school armory during the past week, with the result that the team is fast rounding into shape. In a game with the North Pacifio Dental college five last week the Cadets showed up remarkably well, considering the short time which they have been out for practice. Hill has scheduled a game with the Van couver high school at Vancouver. Wash., for some time during the coming week. Jeffa to )lrt Franklin. In the second league game of the season Jeffercon will tangle with the Franklin High hoppers. This proba bly will be one of the best games of the opening week of basketball, as both teams have been organized for some time, and have already played several practice games with inde pendent teams. Commerce and Lincoln are sched uled to meet in the third game of the season, and Columbia and Washington in the fourth game. Earl A. Harmon, Leon Fabre and Herbert Goode have been selected as the referee to officiate in the games this season. All three are capable men and know the cage 'game from A to Z. Harmon refereed the Inter scholastic football gamns this season. He hails from the middle west, where he Is well known as an athlete and official. Both Fabre and Goode have served as referees in the interscholas tic basketball league before, -nd have always proved to be satisfactory. It will be left to the two teams playing to decido upon one of the three men named to officiate in tha game being played. As in the past the games will be played upon high school floors when it can be arranged, and if the teams Dlavins: cannot come to an agreement on one of the high school floors tha contest will be staged in the Y. M. C A. gymnasium. S1MINS FANS HARD HIT STATE FIRE MARSHAL ISSUES ULTIMATUM TO MILWAUK1E. Deputy Sheriff to Be on Hand Here after to Enforce Rule Against Tobacco Torches. SALEM. Or.. Jan. 10.
