Witwer stories was that of the dainty little lady who married the champ of the world, and then thought he won 'em so easily that he ought to clean up a new boob every day for about 30,000 iron fish. Thre'e hundred and sixty-five days a year at 3,u0u a day ought to make enough mon ty to take care of her and the children quite adequately if he never got sick Qr old or missed, a train. The Willamette tennis team has been mowing 'em down at that rate, though being amateurs they haven't been making- it quite so profitable. But it has been dead sure. The word comes -that Id their northwestern trip, after cleaning up the Idaho State uni versity champs In straight sets, Thursday, they tookv on the Washington State college lads on Friday, and trimmed them also, two matches out of three. Doney drew a tartar in the singles, and dropped one match; but Moodhe won his assignment, and then the pair of them swamped the best two that the big college could produce. , They were to play Spokane Amateur Athletic club Saturday and return home Sunday night or Monday. .

Did you ever hear a howling bunch of kids all talking at the same time? For a while it was that way at thj Y.M.CA. Monday andthen it would suddenly cease when Swimming Master Tom Gawley demanded quiet. Tom says "you cannot learn to swim and talk at the same time." Eighty-two boys from the grade schools were in the Y tank during the day and each one was given special personal attention. Mr. Gawley gets right in with them and by his personality and encour agement makes the boys learn something about the art of swim ming. One of the oldest boys who had before taken lessons any number 6f times dared Gawley to teach him, as he was quite skeptical.

Egan of Silverton was second, with 14 and Hoblitz, also of Silverton third with 12 points. Carter and Podradsky of Mill City with 29 and 22 points, came near taking the whole junior meet, though Blaco of Marion and Wilkinson of Mehama stood 17 each. Good Ilecord Made Some good records were made. Owen -of Mill city put the 12 pound shot 40 feet, S inches; Egan of Silverton did the 220 yards in 25.6 seconds. In the mile relay, won by Silverton, with Stayton second, the last heat was a hVir-ralsin? contest in which Mielke of Stayton, getting off to a bad start through the failure of hU team mates, cut down the Silverton lead to a scant two inches at the finish. Both men fell, absolutely done out, as they crossed the tape. 1 Neither one was hurt, however, but quickly regained their wind, as good as ever. This mile wos covered in 3:57 4-5. Fuson Had Accident The Stayton baseball ' team showed much class. It has had a practically perfect record Good Catches Reported from Upper Mill Creek Some good catches of trout are reported from upper Mill creek Roy Burton brought home one steelhead weighing about 15 pounds, from between Turner and Aumsville, and his compan ion, Guy Doan, did almost as well. In general, however, the streams from the Cascades are Running high, the result of the hot weath er of the first of last week. which took the snow so rapidly and raised real floods in some ot the streams.

Willamette tennis players brought home all the scalps there were in the northwest, when the two-man team returned Sunday from a triumphal tour. Most of the results have already appeared in the Statesman but a recapitu lation will be interesting. At Moscow, Friday, the two Willamette players, Noble Moodhe and Hugh Doney, met the Univer sity of Idaho. Moodhe defeated Hunter, 6-4, 6-1; Doney beat Har rington, 6-1, 6-2. Then the two visitors beat Harrington and Trescott 6-3. 6-1. The same afternoon, they drove across to Pullman, Wash., to take on the Washington State college team. Moodhe beat Webber 6-3, 6-1; Doney caught a tartar in Heald, who got the long end of the score, 6-2, 7-3. The twoiVillam ette players, mowed down the other two players with a decisive score, 6-4 and 6-1. On Saturday, the visitors at- ' tacked the formidable Spokane Athletic club players on their home grounds. Moodhe met his first defeat of the year in either singles or doubles, when Ander son took him into camp in a lone, hard series, ?-6, 6-3. Doney took this his match with Gordon, 6-3, 6-2; represents the actual playing strength of the two teams. Both teams had a fair sprink ling of the 1922 champion Salem high school team. Ashby started as umpire, ' but had to leave, and Brazier Small took on the job. The large and interested crowd was well pleased with his work. Zozel of the Valley motor made one home run, and the whole team swatted the pill like mad men.

Classified Ads. In The season. Before the game Satur day, while the players were lim bering up, a wild ball thrown from the field struck Fuson, the crack pitcher from Stayton, In the face just as he turned around, breaking hiB nose and putting him out of the game. His team mate, Zuber, took up the game. and won after a skillful exhibi tion. Zuber hit the ball for a three-bagger in the first Inning, with the bases full, scoring three runs, and Mielke made a home run a little later. Trophies Awarded. Both the Stayton high school and the Liberty grade school re ceived loving cups for their suc cess. The trophies are given by Hartman Bros, and Gardner & Pomeroy, respectively. Medals are to go to the schools for their place in the track and field meet, and ribbon trophies to the indi vidual point winners. Anderson Brown gave a sweater to the winner of the 220-yard low hur H!es; C. P. Bishop a sweater to the winner of the high school mil, and the Miller Mercantile company a sweater to the junior niiler. The Principals' associa tion pave silver loving cups to the relay teams from each class ification ot school. Underwood Is Chairman Principal E. F. Underwood ot ihe Stayton , schools was the chairman and the general arrang er of the meef. The other mem bers were J. P. Brownf Wood hnrn; J"l Tcnlnra, Silverton; and then the pair fought a bitter battle with two new men. Munia and Farnham, who made them go to 6-3, 2-6 and 7-5 sets before the match was decided, the Bearcats being winners. Three championships in two days., against' nine fresh players. and only three matches lost in the whole three series, is not a bad record for any pair of players. The last tennis of the year, at least in the championship class will be the return match with O A. C. to be played here in Salem Friday or Saturday of this week. the exact date not yet being de termined. Broccoli Grovvers of Marion Hold Session At a well-atteflded meeting of the broccoli growers of Salem and vicinity Saturday afternoon at the Commercfal club it waa voted to form a stronz, cooperative asso ciation that should bind the grow ers to a better regulation of the business than they have hereto fore known. It was said on the floor of the meeting that, though the crop of last year was not very successful in this section, the business looks like a winner, and that in order to develop an J sup ply the market it would be neces sary to make a stronger associa tion. The acreage last year was between 2S0 and 300 acres. This L fob in abor Leader Defeats Har ris for Council Position from First Ward a3 ,1 , .11, r-rtt- X.
