Ashland Played a safe, steady game, piling p point after point by consistent shooting even while the Redmond taem,. waa -making, wore lrlea.at goal. The Ashlanders converted six free throws-into goal, three of. their star men. taking turns, with almost equally good results. Redmond got only one point by the foul route.

A V V Intatl Cart on Co 1! ' night for Salem, for after lead ing by a score of 12 to 10 at the end of the first hall), the Salem players began to see double at be goals, and simply couldnt hit 'em at all. Brown made six goals from three throws, but seven others got away from him and Socolofsky who went in for. the last seven minutes, seven minutes, seven points that might have won the game. Westergren, of Astoria, made 12 points from field throws. He was the top score man of the game. Anderson for Astoria con verted only, two out of seven free throws, though he made two field goals to balance the score. Two of the hardest, most valu able players of the evening failed to make a single, score: Lehon for SalemV and Luoti for Astoria. Lonon has always been a snappy player but last night he excelled himself. He saved the) score from becoming terribly lop-sided against Salem. He was out of luck in that in his earnestness he had ofur personal fouls called against him, and ho left the game. It almost broke the crowd's heart to see a game warrior let out for his valor. , Perhaps no other man who has played in the tourna' ment, has covered as much ground as successfully, as did Lenon. Lu oti, of Astoria, captain and guard was a star in his place. - Between him and" -LenOn, . there was al ways somebody hard at work on the floor. . Liljegren made one back-hand shot that set the crowd wild. It was the kind they dream of after a rarebit' supper they couldn't bel'eve It in their sober mom' ents. , , .4 f ' ."

Astoria will go- into, the semi finals against Afehland today at 3 o'clock. The players were: Salem -Tucker, Brown, for wards; Lenon, center; Patterson Liljegren, guards. Substitutions : Okerberger for Lenon, Socolofsky for Brown.

Eugene and Pen dleton will meet for the Ilrst game of the day, Eugene had no call for severe, play, In winning against - Josephs, yesterday after noon;.it;was a game that neaves n6t a. strain, not a sore lung, not a mark. They'wfll go Into the meeting 'this afternoon fresh and Confident. Pendleton has a hard finished' team, but- the North Ben ders gave them enough of a scare yesterday to make them play their very worst. Only the phe nomenal men can stand that class of games even two days in suc cession, and be as fast for the sec ond as the first. " The Pendleton players -.are i about the huskiest in the whoie turnament. ' If anyone could stand a gruelling series, it ought to be the "BuckaroOs. ; They have one of the fastest, hardest fool hall, back in the state in their line-up Kramer. - . t He is of the class who would ; never tire; '' But the tall Engehice nave an aerial pass that la clear .iboTethe jjach of many good but shorter players; and they will be hard- men to beat. It ought to be a slashing game, t Which ever of tljese goes down to the finals will da so with the scars of battle to how for the afternoon contest - Astoria -Handlcarped Astoria and Ashland will clash 'n the second elimination game it 3180 today. The Astor'ans are handicapped- in their draw. They wt-te In tTe first round for a plaNi when ther'met Newberg on Thursday. Then they had to ex- - 1 m ' . . . . cnu xnemseiveB ior a nara ngm with Salem last night, and they got into the fight none too fresh. Ashland had a walk-away last night against Redmond. The Redmonders had been fighting a gruelling fight to win the cham pionship against The Dalles Wed nesday night 'when they had to play four extra ftre-miaate halves to play off the tie. nil left them in poor eondltlofl to meet the TURFMAN SAILS TO SEE NATIONAL STEEPLECHASE. 1 1 i ' ' ' Commantier J.'Kl'I.

It had been said of them before they Came on the f irjld that one or two, or even thrte, of their most accurate shots c6uld be killed off and there would still be as good ones Jeft The event almost proved It. to' be a fact. The Redmond ' team really secured more chances at goal than did the Ashland team. The Easterners are fast, and with proper shooting ability would play even with the best in the state. Bat they could not shoot, and so Ashland had a cinch game. - Ashland is Favorite Ashland has been . picked by many judges as the probable win ner of the, whola series, the es timate being made on - their con sistent record and their several accurate goal-makers. The Astor ians, however, who have already come up from behind in the sec ond half and cleaned their oppon ents, seem to have a splendid. flaming quality that will make ev en the clever Ashlanders go to their top speed. The result is no more certain than thel Pendleton Eugene game. The finals tonight will start at 8 o'clock. The names of the prin cipals have net yet been determin ed but whoever they are, they'll be busy boys for about an hour after the first whistle' blows. High School-Chemawa Smoker Tuesday Night The first annual smoker. of the high school Is sched filed tor next Tuesday when Sal?m h5gh mat men Will agan match with" the Wellrtratned Chemawa wnen in ad dition to several matches between local boxers. The smoker will be a "smokeless emoker'nd will be held in the high school gymnas ium. Profiting Qy weeks of hard practice and much noeded exper tance, 'the local mat workers will be In fairly 'good shape to match with the carefully trained ' and ranch heavier Chemawa men. Salem defeated Chemawa in a smoker -in tb earlier -part of the season and the Indians are on the war path f6f vemgeance. They have been training consistently s' nee the last m?et and fast fights are expected to develop. Matches between the men who. Jailed to scure decisions in the last meet are be!ng planned. " Amendments to the.i)y-laws ot the constltutlcn of the h'gh school will make wrestling a 'major ac tivity fer which school , emblems 4 V , ' will be given. The proposed change is strongly recommended and Is receiving strong support. Draw for Tennis Cup Match Announced from New York NEW YORK, March 17.'

Stayton Volleyball Teams Will Play Here March 24 Stayton is tc send two teams of volleyball players to Salem next Friday night, March 24, to meet similar teams made up of local business men. The two lo cal teams will be captained by Ole Oleson and George Hug. A series of 11 games will be played, to de cide the s?rie!. Stayton has been organized and going for only about three months, but the Stay ton spirit already proclaims them chamiions, and they are coming to the Capital City as the easiest, quickest place to prove it. They come under the general county Y. M. C. A. program, which has been worked up and developed By John Rudd and Edwin Socolofsky, counjy Y workers. More Volleyball Games For Salem and Portland - . After each team has scored one decisive, earned vL-tory over the other, the volleyball teams from Salem and Portland are to meet once mora for the championship at Portland, early in April. ThV teams- are made up ot the businesr men of the two cities, and repre sent enough age and avoidnpols to make it a stunning game. Ths exact date is not yet determined. Portland won the first series, on her home floor; then Salem even ed It up by a clean victory here ai home, and the final chances look about: even. It is easy to get the reputation of being an orator. All that is necessary 1 to say- sometjbing that sounds well, but means noth. !ng We see examples around Us every day. y.M.C.l IS H FILLED Swimming Tank at Associa tion Probably Ready for Bathers Today Water was turned into the new ly nnlshed Y.M.C.A. pool, Friday, and it is expected that it will be filled enough by this morning to be ready for swimmers. This will be gratifying news to hundreds of people of Salem. The business men have enjoyed the pool almost as much as the boys, and the boys have simply gone wild over its delights. When the pool web drained six weeks ago, with the announce ment that it had sprung Such a Series of leaks that It couldn't be used any more until it had been repaired, almost every person who ever visited the Y drew a painful 6lgh. No more swimming How come? These signers included a hundred or more of the girls of the Y.W.C.A. and of the high school, who had betn having the pooltfor one day of the week. As refinlshed, with a thorough repairing of all the cracks, and four coats of enamel cement paint on top of it all, the pool now looks Uke a marble bath of the Caesars. It promises to be even more pop ular than it was before the wreck. RELAY Coach from University Spec tator at Brother's Big Show in Salem "The call for a state relay tour nament has gone over, big," says Coach George Bohler, of the Ore gon State university. "We expect to have every col lege of the .valley represented In the meet. Some will send many runners, some only a few; but all will send something and you can never tell how well a man can run, by. where he comes from or what he looks like. Some of the stats may pop out of the littlest holes. That's what makes it in' teresting. We have a fine stad ium at Eugene, and ample accom modation for all comers. It seems to me the logical place for such a meet. "Since' Willamette and Salem has made such a success of the state basketball tournament, some have urged Oregon to ask for it. I won't stand for It. It used to be held down there, I believe, and 't fairly starved out. Now that Willamette has built It up Into something fine, It ought to stay there. We can ask for cordial cooperation In this other kind of meet, and we are getting It, on he basis of being square. There was an unwarranted rivalry be tween the two big state schools over some intercollegiate meet tnrs that conflicted each with the -uher. That isn't good sports manship. The moral teachings of athletics ought to be the very h'ghest. That's the kind of ath fettcs I hope to sec m all the col leges. "And that spirit .has to beg'n In the h'gh schools." It ought to begin with the first athletic ri valryfirst of all to tight fairly, and then to win if a fair, clean fight will do it. Take our Own baskfltball team thf's year. We could have put a more experienced team in' the field than we did, and we certainly would have won some victories. But some of our letter men needed their school credits more than they needed basketball. I advised them to drop the games and r in their work and they did it, while we play ed with newer men. But we have men who will be with us for' two more years. They are all high students. We don't allow them to take their "athletics at the cost BI mm BOOSTING of their sludles. We change off men, and aim to build tip aa many aa we can. rather than to shim through a few victories at the cost of men who play. Coach Bohler; IS attending the basketball tournament as an In terested spectator. He Is deeply interested in the progress of the game as a sport as well as a men tal discipline, and his counsel la any meeting of athletic leaders I listened, to with deep respect. I Salem Will Entertain Next Federation Meet Salem Is to entertain the next session of tho Marlon County Community federation April 1 2.
