Not Militaristic
(By James Vickers)
Showing plenty of fight and much
smooth team work, the 19*2« crea
tion of a basketball team rolled to
victory over a stubborn Grove five,

Forest Grove floor.
The local team was all keyed up

won the admiration of the specta

nnd defensive. The teamwork and
the brilliant shooting of- the local
team puts them on par with the last
year's hoopstirs, although their
right to the honor wax seriously
doubted at the beginning of the
season, Clara Ruff is the big star
of the team, not only for wonderful
playing but for getting nil the
“breaks” and having the most un
canny luck. Thus far she has scored
the most points, of which 42 were

HUlxboro may have semi-profes

fans and players from here were
present at a baseball meeting in
Portland Tuesday night on invita
tion of those who like to get Hills
boro, a good ball town, back on the
baseball map once again.
Eight Tea m« Planned
The plan is to form an eight-team
league, which would be called the
Portland-Valley league. The league
of last year will be broken up this
year on account of the travel dis
tance between Portland, Salem, Al
bany and Eugene. The league as
projected Tuesday night would in
clude Vancouver Barracks, Mt. Scott,
Montavilla, Franklin Garage and the
Cloverland Creamery of Portland,
Headquarters company of the Port
land armory, St. Johns and possibly
Hillsboro and McMinnville.
The enthusiasts favored a split
season with the two leading teams
of the first half playing the two
leading squads of the second half
for the championship. The winners
of this league would then play the
winners in the upper valley league.

Draft of Charter Amendment
For Street Lighting Given
Approval
A plan for improved street light
ing in the residential district at a
minimum of cost was endorsed Tues
day night by the city council. The
motion asked that the power com
pany proceed with the work imme
diately. The plan calls for a light
on practically every corner in the
city limits.
Draft Amendment
The watchfulness of Night Officer
Jim Miller of Cornelius resulted in
the arrest of Frank Shattuck on a
burglary charge at Cornelius Friday
night.
Officer Miller saw a light flash in
the pool hall as he was making his
rounds, and going around to the
back he found a door pried open,
and surprised the man at his work.
Shattuck tried to make a get-away,
according to the officers, by diving
head first through a plate glass win
dow at the front of the store, but
shots from Miller’s gun made him
change his mind.

Harold Emrick was taken into

He admits complicity in this crime
as well as others, according to offi
cers.
Gun Club Plans
Shoot and Feed
The Washington County Rod and
Gun club will hold a shoot next
Sunday. The program will be 75
targets at 16 yards, and a 50-target
handicap. Shooters will be divided
into four classes. A prize will be
given to the winner of each class.
Dr. Smith is presenting an unique
prize to the winner of the handi
cap event.
The Oregonian is conducting the
state telegraphic tournament again
this year. Shall the club enter again
this year? This question will be
decided Sunday at the shoot.
Friday evening. February 17, the
club will hold the annual “get-to
gether” meeting and banquet. There
will be turkeys and geese a-plenty,
and lots of other good eats. Not
able speakers from different parts
of the state will be on the program.
There will also be music and other
forms of entertainment. The judge
of the “Kangaroo court” has been
sentenced to jail for life and will
not be with us this year.
A draft of the street lighting im
provement district amendment to
the city charter was given approval
by the council. The draft will be
turned over to the directors of the
chamber of commerce for the once
over.
This enabling act provides
that the installation and mainten
ance be taken care of by the district
for fivie years and at the end of that
time there are three options—one
for the city to take it over, tho
district to continue it, or the abol
ishment of the district. This amend
ment, which allows for the forma
tion of a lighting district the same
as street improvements, will be voted
on at a special charter election.
Sixty per cent of the property own
ers under this enabling act makes
it mandatory on the council to go
ahead with the district.
The council gave favorable con
sideration to the idea of submitting
an offer to sell the baseball park
and the Tamiesie tract to the union
high school board for the new school
building.
Ask Radio Refutation
Regulation of high frequency ma
chines to allow for better radio
reception between the hours of 7
p. m. and 11 p. m. was asked of
the city council. City Attorney Ben
ton Bowman was asked to make a
report at the meeting next Tues
day night.
The state board of health will be
asked to make an inspection of the
camp ground at the Shute park.
Directors of the chamber of com
merce recommended more direction
signs to th/ park.
The church vacates the other half
of the upstairs of the city hall on
February 23, and a committee of
the council will prepare plans for
rearranging it for the firemen.
The councilmen indicated that
they would let the baseball team
have the baseball park again this
year for the payment of the liability
insurance, which amounts to about
$50.
City to Co-oporate
In answer to a request of the
city beautiful committee of the
chamber of commerce for co-oper
ation from the council, the civic im
provement committee was instructed
to work with the chamber group.
L. J. Merrill, chairman of the
union high school board, asked for
information as to whether streets
were really dedicated streets and
what the policy of the administra
tion would be in regard to street
improvements near the school.
The location of the J. W. Cope
land gravel pit in relation to resi
dences caused some comment.
A proposed billboard ordinance
resulted in much discussion as to
