ed word from his Paris aeent that

ing title., had accepted terms for!
Because of the cancellation of
two practice games with outside
teams at Silver ton and Mill City,
the Willamette Bearcat basket
ball squad will have little other
than home practice this week.
They are to go over to McMlnn
ville, Saturday afternoon for an
unregistered practice meet with
the Linfield quintet; the matter
does not appear on the schedule
tor the year.
The team is still in the forma
tive stage, with several chances
in sight for permanent places on
the team. Coach Roy Ilohler
does not yet know just what he
will decide upon as the best line
up; .there are several players of
aobut equal apparent value, un
less some of thesa show particu
lar aptitude for certain positions.
The games played thu far have
been altogether experimental, as
the. results might show. Some
curious upsets come from these
shifts of even high class player).
Recently, three of the crack O. A.
C.team played on the alumni
team against the Salem High
school, and the others were Uni

the preppers skinned the life out

lem Eagles, a boys' team from
the Y.M.C.A. It was the heaviest
score on both Bides yet reported
this year in or around Salem,
both sides dropping in baskets so
fast that it took almost more
time to walk back to the center
than to run down to the goals.
The Salem team reports a fine.
clean, gentlemanly bunch of boys
at the school and were well pleas
ed with their reception, though
they are still wondering about the
score.

Carleton and Becker, guards;

Hansen and Larsen, forwards;
Devers and Brock,' guards; Adams

THBIFT WEEK TO
be Pin sr y
Details Will Be Considered
At Luncheon Today
Many Are Expected
National Thrift week, starting
on January 17, the anniversary of
the birth of Benjamin Franklin,
the original American thrifter, is
to be planned out in detail at the
luncheon today noon at the Y. M.
C. A. Salem is to be approached
op the thrift question, from every
possible angle and with the heav
iest artillery there is in the finan
cial field.
La.it year the Thrift Week
campaign conducted by the Salem
"Y" reached notable proportions;
it is rated as the best program
put on In any city in America, the
size of Salem. The successful
outcome of the big Willamette
university campaign Is confident
ly believed to have been partly
due to the campaign last winter.
Practically every civic organiza
tion in Salem is expected to be rep
resented at the luncheon today;
they were in the campaign last
year, and they are counted on to
repeat, with interest. The
schools, the dinner clubs, the
commercial club, every organiza
tion, every individual who has
some worth-while plan to present,
will be welcomed at the Initial
meetiny.
The recently announced find
ing of the Salem school board,
-that a building program calling
for at least half a million dollars'
worth of new school buildings
makes thrift seem a subject for
everybody. If thrift helped build
a million-dollar university fund,
it may be able to build another
half-million dollars' worth of
public and high school houses.
Secretary Kells urges the thrift
era to come to the dinner today
and help make a program that
will really be worth while.
