Contending that it had been the victim of a conspiracy by which the officials of the Federal league "had sold out" to the National and the American leagues, the Baltimore club entered suit in the federal court at Philadelphia, but per mitted its suit to lapse pending negotiations with represen tatives of organized baseball for a satisfactory settlement. Falling, it instituted a. suit un der the Sherman act In the courts of the District of Colombia, claim ing triple damages for the losses It, had suffered when the federal league disbanded. . - A verdict of $80,000 was ob tained before a . Jury in the su preme court of the district "which was trebled under the Sherman act and made $240 000 but this was set aside by the district court of appeals. The opinion of the suprclne cobrt, delivered by Justice Holmes held that games y teams in the national agreement "are purely state affairs." - - ... 'A : professional baseball player in traveling the circuit,' he con 1 tinned, is no more engaged in In terstate commerce than "would be a firm, of lawyers sending out a member to argue a: case", or ta 'Chautauqua lecture bureau send ingIecturers." 4In neither ease. Justice Holmes polntedout, does the person engage in commerce simply by going ? into another btate. f ; - . : 'A, i, i t -.' Slave Clause Approved, i'i The- contracts by which the Bal timore club alleged professional ball players were made "chattel slaves" .was given approval by the court, i' which declared "tfte re strictions by contract that prevent ed the plaintiff (the Baltimore club) frefcn frdm getting players to break their bargains," was not an interference with commerce. , J' ,, , ,'IETH TEAM TO : PLAY HERE TODAY Lund"-.

Should Willamette win, as the done decrees It should, Willamette will have a championship record of achievement In this section. ' Series Begins at 0:30 The series starts at 9:30, with Houston of Willamette meeting Parnln of O.A.C. This is an event that has little on which to base a guess Houston is the least sea soned player of the Willamette and Parnin was not of the O.A.C. team that the Bearcats defeated in the previous , meet. At 10:30, Maberley and Klncaid of O.A.C. meet Houston and Mood he in the first doubles match. Moodhe, easily rthe star of all the north-J west amateur players, has lost only one- single match this year, to Armstrong of Spokane, and no double; match In which he has played. ; While the O.A.C. pair ought to put up a whirlwind battle, they are up against ' other whirlwinds who look like rather the better bet. V. ' ' Moodhe Retains Speed At 1:30, Kenneth Joy, captain of the invaders, and Moodhe. of Willamette will fight It. out for the .single championship, vMoodhe was, the wlnnec in the "previous meet, and he certainly has lost no speed or precision since that time. He ough to, repeat his pre vious victory, by a small, hard fought margin. ; Simultaneously, Maberly of O.A.C.' and Doney of Willamette will play..- a match in singles. This ought to be a fast match, again with the odds slightly In favor of Willamette, ' The last event, the doubles be tween Joy and Johnson of O. A. C and Moodhe and Doney of Will amette, ought to he the hair-rais er of the whole series. 7 Moodhe and Doney have played together until they are well-nigh unbeat able. Even though Joy and John son are exceptional players, .they face an altogether probable drub bing. I Willamette Summary Willamette has beaten O.A.C, Oregon. Albany, Washington State college (twice); Idaho State university, Spokane Athletic club, already this year and never lost a series- With the prestige of one decided win already achieved over the visitors-of to day, the locals ought to make It eight straight. 1 .

LOSES TITLE Columbia University Base ball Team Wins from Local Team For the second year in succes sion, Salem high school has miss ed the interscholastlc bassbal championsh'p by on'y one game and both times to the same team. Columbia university of Portland. The game to decide the 1922 championship was played Satur day at Portland. Salem high had come through the season with an absolutely clean record, nave fo ore narrow-squeak defeat, 19 to It. at the hands of Columbia sev eral week ano. No other team of the state had as good a record as Sa'em. and this last game w!tn Columb'a was needefi to de-it the championship. It Salem h? won. it would have made the lo cal school even with Columbia with a tie to play off for the championsh'p. But Sam didn't win. la game , that was. below the stand ard playing of both teams. Salei succeeded In scor ng fewer runs tnan did the Portlanders. The final score was 13 to 8 fn favor of Columbia. It ought to have been more, from the way the game started, for Columbia macie three runs in the first inning anl had the score 8 to 0 at the fourth inninr.' Then Salem braced up aed had it 8 to 10 In the seventh Inning.' Columbia put over three more runs In the last two inning? while Salem tailed to score fur ther. Jones of Salem got one three base hit. as also did Schulmericn of Columbia. Salem made seven hits, to nine for Columbia. The winners didn't especially outplay N Cartoon Co., N.

It has only about eight major characters but the chorus number 35 or more. It has everything that the heaviest grand opera has, except the imported singers. The Che- mawa presentation is tuneful, it has dash and ginger and verve. and it is well sung and acted and costumed. The orchestra and the1 chorus make it a pretentious of fering, that brought the 1200 au ditors to their feet with enthusi asm. "Fashion Show." a revue of the gown-making abilities of the Indian maidens of the school, was made a part of the "Yucatan" play, being presented in the form of a garden party in the last act that called for a parade of gor geous ladies and their escorts. Some of the finest needlework in the world is done by the Indian girls. There is work on exhibi tion out at this school that would pauperize the vocabulary of al most any lover of feminine finery. The fashion show was not a part of the plot of the Yucataners, but it fitted In like a diamond ring in a college senior breakfast when they make the engagement an nouncements. Auditorium Crowded The first night was more es pecially for the school and for the friends who might not be located and invited by name. The audi torium was crowded, with 1200 delighted visitors. The same pro gram is to be given again tonight, for both those who have been in vited by name, and for the other equally good friends whose pres ence 13 Just as urgently desired. The s chool extends a hearty wel come to all friends to come. All the pepartments are to be open for inspection this afternoon and Wednesday, commencement day. There will be a competitive military drill at 9:30, dress pa rade at 2, band concert at 6:30, and the formal graduation exer cises at 8:30. To all of these the public generally is invited. Hondretls Visit Sunday Hundreds of visitors went through the school on Sunday, all the departments being open for the afternoon. Band music, some attractive drill work by the girls with wands and Indian clubs, the military drill by the boys, made it an interesting day. Dr. Carl G. Doney, president of Willamette university, delivered the annual baccalaureate address Sunday night to a crowded house. He spoke last year on a similar oc casion. Building Site at Dallas is Sold to New Owner DALLAS, Or.. May 2t. (Spe cial to The Statesman) Several real estate changes have taken place in Dallas during the past week, among them being the sale of a building site on Washington street to Frank Friar of this city who win erect a modern dwelling thereon In the near future. ; Ralph pigby also becomes the owner of a 10-acre tract near Falls City by the trading In ot his prop erty In the south part of this cltyi, SENATORS TAKE ST. U E Score is 70-9; Locals Over come Early Lead Secur ed by Fast Team Biddy Bishop, moundsman for the Salem Senators, was . one ot the stars Sunday when the locaH defeated St. Paul by the score ot 10 to 9. In the last half of the game, Bishop aided -in rallying the Senators after the visitors had maintained a lead for several inn ings and his batting as well as his mound work helped to put the store right side up. Tlie locals showed poor fair, work and lack of pep during the first innings. St. Paul scored .lrom the first Inning, "Ted" Pil iette, their pitcher, displaying able generalship. During the last four innings the Senators started to play ball and cut the visitors laJ to 9-8 In the ninth Inning. The improvement in Salem's play daxzled Coleman, manager of the visitors and Coleman decitled that Pilette was to blame for the creep-up and replaced him with Carsbn. Salem took a score from the new pitcher, who also let in jene run by a wild pitch. McKenne, Hayes and Duffy all came in for nice plays. Hobscr, Salem's new second bagger, is a fast worker and was credited vitb nice put-outs. Adolph, who i making good progress with the Senators, rapped out his first home run of the season yesterday.

MAJOR MILLER URGES HONOR FOR VETERANS (Continued from page 1) more than ever America's day. set apart to express by appropr ate exercises the love we hear for those loyal and patriotic Amerl can fighters who were called upon to give all in that great struggle to preserve the union, for those who entered the fray 'for the sake of humanity', and the heroic dead who won for us our present tranquility. "It is indeed our duty as citi zens, as Americans of unques tioned integrity, and as veterans, to join In these exercises. It is fitting that all patriotic soe'eties, fraternal organizations and the relatives of veterans of all wars, participate, he local National Guard, the soldiers of today who may be the veterans of tomorrow, will be part ot the parade." Program at Armory Following the afternoon parade which ends at the armory, appro priate patriotic exercises will be held at the armory. Music and rpeaking will make It a delight ful program. James Crawford, spokesman for the American le gion, will be the principal speak ed. It is urged that the hall be crowded. ' Following the Invitation of M Rev. Blaine Kirkpatrlck, the Grand Army and all the later military organizations of the com munity attended the First Meth odist church Sunday morning for Memorial Sunday services. The house was crowded to standing capacity. The music was of the finest, and the sermon was one that will be long remembered by nil who heard it. Divinity Bark of All The speaker took the general subject, "The Springs of Patrio tism," and the Biblical text, "Thou Shalt be Like a Watered Garden." He developed the idea that back of it all is the great mountain of divinity, sending forth the waters of patriotism, of humanity, of a free church, of the open Bible, of fhe Christian home, of a free press, all ot which water the garden if civilisation and enlightenment. He paid fine, discriminating tributes to the ideals of each of the great na tional wars; the Civil war for. the freedom of the slave; the Span ish-American war for the freedom of an oppressed n-eighblor; the World war for the freedom of a world; and back of all he pictur ed a sympathetic divinity, like Mount Hood with its everlasting mows and unfailing spring. HAL HIBBARD GIN HONOR Annual Ritual of Spanish War Veterans Held Over Grave of Soldier A number of the United Span ish War veterans went out to the Warren cemetery 1 0 miles east of Salem Sunday afternoon to hole Memorial services over the grave of Corporal Hal Hibbard of Salem, who died in the Spanish American war, and for whom the local vet erans' camp was named. Their beautiful ritual services were held, the grave decorated with flowers, and Col. Carle Abramf gave a brief but impressive ora tion over the grave of the depart ed soldier. It Is a beautiful little country cemetery, with one of the largest oaks in the valley shading part of the graves, and with a notable congregation of Oregon pioneers to keep company with the soldier Most of the earlier Geer and Grif fith families are buried there The old Griffith' donation claim adjoins the cemetery, and the Geer land ia only a mie away. There are graves there that were made as early as 1850; the graves of hopeful pioneers who came to carve a home out of the wilder ness. On the headstone over the grave of R. C. Geer It is recorded that he crossed the plains in 1847 King Hibbard, the father of Hal Hibbard came in the same year, and his mother in 1849. She died only three years ago and they are all buried there s'de by side. In a beautiful little cnse of ever green. An interesting story Is recallea ot Hal Hibbard. that has to do with the great division in Ameri can politics in 1896. Hal follow ed the banner of the insurgent free ailverites that were going to redeem the world at 16-to-l. His father was as regular as Matt Quay or Dick Crokef. They were militant politicians, these Hib bcrds. Both took the stump for their respective causes, and they fought it out in many a district school house, with spectacle-trousered men and tired women for their audiences and each with a perfect dread lest the other man's cause should win and destroy the nation. The nation lives, the .two Hibbards are sleeping side by side in the quiet cemetery looking out ever the land that they believed In and sometimes men come to pay their respects to both quiet little graves and say "These were real Americans whom we honor today." -i At the Mennonlte cemetery near Pratum the' soldiers held services ever the grave ot the late Leon i .

PERIS TALKS IT Personal Reminiscences of Grant and Lincoln Told by Veteran J W. Perkins of the local post of the Grand Army of the Repub lic was the chapel speaker at Wil lamette university yesterday and pieaented a true and striking pic ture ot the pre-war days and some of his personal experiences, in the war of the Rebellion. From his personal experiences he recounted scenes from a home where, slaves were owned; where his father' home, was a unit of the famous underground railway. He said that the impression left on him by these scenes of the mal treated negroes caused him to be like Abraham Lincoln to raise a hand to help froe the down trodden race. The stirring times of the abolitionist days and the days before the Civil war. he said, left a very deep Impression in him and the young people of that day. Very Interesting was the com ment concerning General Grant. For a uhile Mr. Perkins was at tached to the headquarters troops of Grant's command and was able to come In very direct contact with him. j Some of the Confederate troops swooped down upon a. detail of men of whom Mr. Perkins was one. wounding him and causing events to shape which enabled him to be In Washington during the second Inauguration of Presi dent Lincoln. He said the feel ing that swept over him when he saw the great president was one' that made him glad to -be fight-1 Ing for the freedom of the colored men.
