ROGERS HI ' IN COURT S001 ARMORY BOUTS MONEY FIRMS HOLD PROMISE II 111 Card Scheduled for January 27 Contains Names Of Good Men HALL AND MULKEY HERE Officers of Company F Con fident That Program Will Be One of Best One or two changes have been made In the program announced for the Company F smoker, to be given at the armory, January 27; but most of the program stands as it was first made out. The boxers are working hard for the event, and it promises to be the class of the whole winter; per haps the best card offered in Sa le m for 'years. The main event will be the prin cipal change; the original mstch would have brought a local middle-weight, Hall, against Pollard, a welterweight, through a misun derstanding of weights. Pollard, of Dallas, the welter, is rated as a good; man, but the weights wouldn't fit, so the management has substituted Carl Miller, of Eu gene, who will we:g"a in at 152 while Hall will make 155. Miller Is Known. t Miller, who appeared against Syverson at 137 pounds, in the last smoker, looks like the most perfectly trained man seen any where in any athletic event in Sa lem for a long time; but In Hall he is taking on a man who will call for all the skill and endur ance he can command. The crowd that saw Miller in the last match will be glad to see him pitted against, a man of his own. weight; they have a treat, in store. The men go lor 10 rounds. Syverson and Corlneu, both lo cals, go for six rounds in the semi final. They weigh respectively 13S and 132. Syversdn bas dem onstrated an endurance and cour age that would make him a fa vorite with any Salem crowd. - "Dubs" Mulkey and Edwards, of Monmouth, will put' 03 a four round exhibition match at 150 pounds. This is not' a finish event, but is solely an exhibition bout. Mulkgy may go on in a main event, soon. If a suitable match can be made- for him. ; Fraser and Bayes will go four rounds at 145 pounds. There are ahose who'd rather see Bayes than most anyone else on the card, and they expect to see a smashing con test in this event. Spike Crossan and an: unnamed "Red" opponent are to 'meet for four rounds; if the, unknown is a match for the redoubtable Crossan,' this alone would be a good evening's enter tainment. A three round prelim inary between "kid" bantam weights will also he staged, mak ing six bouts in all. The evening's program will be under the supervision of the box ing commission, with Paul Hen dricks fas referee, insuring hign class conduct. There has been much interest In boxing this win ter, and it has been the belief of many good sportsmen that enough support ccruld b e enlisted If the matches were carefully made ana the right supervision given. The present offering looks like a win ner from start to finish, and II this wouldn't please a clean crowd, they wouldn't even appre ciate a good - clean bawth or a spotless handkerchief.

Jan. 31 Farm financing came to the front today with the announcement by Secre tary Wallace that he would lay before the ; national agriculture conference pext week charges that certain companies loaning money on farm mortages were taking ad vantage of the present crisis to charge "extortionate" Interest rates. i The agricultural department ai-i so made public information it had gathered showing that the banks of the United States had outstand ing approximately $3 869,891,415 personal and collateral loans to farmers and '$1,447,482,926 in farm mortgage loans at the end of 1920. Companies Arc Flailed ' "In all lines of business," the secretary declared, "we find pred atory Individuals who sek ontor tunltles to take advantage of the misfortunes of others. VVe expt tha,t from men of a certain tree, but it is a real -shock to note that the same sort of thing is now be ing done by some insurance com panies and farm mortgage loan companies of whom we have a rleht to expect a higher code of ethics." ' These charges, he added, did not apply to all companies making loans to farmers, for some be said, were doing the right tbing and helping the farmers all they could. Others, however, he as serted, "are taking advantage of the farmer's distress to heartless ly extort a rate of u Interest .nd terms of loan which cannot be justified." .

The game was certainly one of the "foulest" ever player here; for the visitors made eight foul bas kets. and missed two. while Wrll Lamette made two points by fouls and missed two. A. Fox was the chief scorer for the Idaho team, with four field goals and all the fouls, a total qt 16 points, or half the total tcafn score. R. Fox . made three field goals, and Thompson and Telford each one; Garttia made two. Th Bearcats bifnehed their baskets rather more Dlmlck making three, Socolofsky one, and Gillette two points from free throws. ; . Uncap Unchanged No change was made in the Idaho lineup during the game; though they had in their "rsgn lar" center, u Thompson, several nones abovj six feet, and a clever player as well; he did not play Wednesday night. What they tried to do by feeding the ball close to the basket, would have run the score up to 100 to 0 if It had worked; but be made only two baskets at that. Bearcats Change Line. I During the last half, Doney of Willamette, went out and Dlmlck took his place at center, while Patton replaced Dimlck. Just be- fore the close: of the game, Doney went back in for Gillette, who had had a bad facial contusion in: a mix-up. Ion P"abre, of Portland, was the referee. He has been for ten years with the Portland schools, and is now physical director iof the Washington and Jefferson high schools.- He called an al most incredible number of fouls on the Bearcat players, .but the crowd accepted It in a far more gracious spirit than the decisions In the first game. . Xo -Rowdyism ; There was sotn hard playing in the game, and it wasn't all the Bearcat players who spilled on to the floor; but there seemed to be no actionable, intentional rough ness most' of the calls were for technical violations. The loss 5 of eight points on fouls, howevor, was a heart-breaking blow to the Bearcat morale. : . Play Safeguarded No other team of any slzeior class, from yearling kids up to 'varsity size, has played as safe a game as Idaho. The ball is likely to stay away back for a long tijne if necessary, until there is an I opening for a close-up run-in and shot; of the 12 field goals achiey-j cd, not more than l wi were .'on chance throws. The Ida&oans play I with more care, or rather wfth ' more skilled placing and team Ex perience than the Bearcats. They have three letter men, the Fox brothers and Thompson.

The score was 20 to 12, with the Salem team running in a number of second-6trlog men during part of the game, to give everybody a vchance at outside competition. The game was fast and furious, with the Woodburn team having a good chance as shown by their making it only 10 and 9 at the end of the first half, followed by a number of changes on the part of the" Salem team. But the Tlsl tors ran away with the bacon in the second hal. scoring 10 points where Woodburn made only 3. A good crowd witnessed the game. A. Austin of Woodburn, officiated as referee.
