Floor Soon. .
- Salem high school has only two
more games left in its district
basketball schedule, both of them
to be played ra the Salem, floor,
with Silverton on February 28.
and with Dallas on March 3.
There might be t some other
games demanded from the north
end of the county, from Molalla
or Oregon City, if they feel like
challenging the Salem champion
ship before the state tournament;
but it has not! been expected that
they will do It, as from present
"dope? it does not appear that It
would be even a fair warm-up for
the local sharps.
McMInnvIlle. that in two games
last year beat Salem by one point
per game, and barely nosed out a
victory early in January this year,
Is to be here on Thursday of this
week. McMInnvIlle was beaten
Friday night by Dallas, and a few
nights before was fairly slaught
ered by CorvaJlis. The team will
have to stage a record come-back
to save an awful beating here this
week..- (; ; i
Another game is to be , played
with Corval lis this week at Cor
yalis. It had been scheduled ; for
Friday night at the high school
gym, which" Jcayery small flooi,
but it may be set for earlier in the
week, when they hope to get the
OAC flooK From- what the two
teams showed , In Salem.! Friday
night, Salem should score an even
more ' decisive victory on the big
college gym floor. ! ?
Next; week Salem goes to Eu
gene to play the Oregon f rosh a
series of two games. Two game3
had been scheduled with the Eu
gene high school. -but they can
celled the dates Immediately after

of Salem last fall. Last year, Eu
gene' was in the state tournament.
This year It Is expected that the
Kugene team will stay at home.
.The Salem boys will have about
two weeks after its last sched
uled game on March 3, to rest up
and get into final condition for
tho state tournament which Is to
be held In Salem as usual. : ,

tee will decide whether Charley
White. Chicago lightweight who
was beaten decisively last night
in jMadison Square Garden by

lose his $2,500 weight forfeit,
claimed by Kansas, because . his
opponent entered the ring three
quarters of a pound over the 135

White late today filed a pro
test with the commission after the
Buffalo boxer's manager, Dan
Rogers, refused to withdraw his
claim.' t ' " .

no complaint at the time the box
ers weighed in at 2 o'clock yes

White had eaten a bowl of broth
and was, unable to attempt fur-
