After hitting a two-bagger into center - field he stole, third and came home when Gillette, who followed v him to; the bat, grounded one out past the second base and got safe to .first. Willamette had little to offer in comparison to the speed and team work of the Vandal nine. The visitors did beautiful work in the field, permitting only four Bear cat players to land safely on first. The locals, however, played a much better game than against Whitman ! but are "still woefully lacking in the punch that only ex perience can give them. Errors were frequent.

The track and field teams of the Uni versities of Washington and Ore mon meet Saturday In the first dual meet of the season on the Oregon field. Washington holds an edse over the Oregon team due to its strength in the weight events and the distances. The loss of Tuck, javelin hurler and weight man, has left Oregon with out a consistent winner in the weights and it necessitates the placing of less experienced men In these events. , 3 Both teams are weaker in the shorter dashes and hurdles than they were last yeaiand looks like tossups for the picking of a winner. In the pole vault Spearow, Oregon veteran, ought - to have things his own way and with Eby and Spearow In the high jump, Oregon will give the visiting team . lively ' competition.- The Washington team arrived today and. worked out on a local track lor a short time.

"The game was played with the understanding that if a conference ruling was made on the subject, the teams would abide by the de cision," Coach Bohler said. , , Bankers Defeat Legion In Game Last Night The Bankers defeated the Amer ican Legion In the Twilight league series yesterday by a score of 5 to 3. The , victory was due to Weeks of the Bankers who knock ed a home run that was good for two tallies. Weeks and G. Thompson were the Banker bat tery and 'HagedonT and Pear mine for the Legion. his conversion was terribly genu ine. (Soon others of the gang fol lowed and they got to escorting her home after her night meet ings', and finally a group came for her each evening. The strange companionship was the scandal of the town. But Graham held off, until bno night she found him in a salojon. He repulsed her greeting,- but later came; to' the meet ing, where the gang held him until the evangelist could reach him. He rayed and stormed, and finally sprang over the railing of the gal lery Ibto the main body of - the boose, to escape. That night her escort failed her and she started home alone. She found Abraham in' a saloon he had quit the saloon utterly, but now he was discouraged over the loss of; GGraham. She asked him to take her home, and he did. Hours (later, she was wakened by a sound put under her window. It wasj Graham, Abraham on one side and the peg-leg on the other, urging him that "the lydy would see hi hi. sure." She threw open the window, to- greet- him, and quickly dressing' she brought them Into the house." "It was a benediction to - that : clean little house, the home of a consecrated young, newly married couple, . to have tthoee dirty, .sinful men brought there to be converted to God," 1 said . the speaker. When the evangelist went to another, vil lage, 15 miles away, Graham car ried her trunk, the whole way, and would accept no tip or gratu ity. and the woman with whom she lodged ondered who was the charmi&g. godly man ho was so courteous and so worshipful. "Maybe you have no Lumbers here in Salem dirty-filthy, law less, liafing men, criminals by choice and a stench to the com- .ruunityi but God says that', who ever ydu are, you must come In repentabee for. the sins that you have cam mi t ted, pride, anger, in tolerance', greed, jealousy and lay them at the altar as the Lump ers didi A letter a few months later told that the Lumpers had secured work, and had worked so Welt that the employer offered them ail the whiskey they, could drink . as gratuityi ' Graham who had beep their ruling devil, said. Thank iron sir, we have gone and been, converted, and we. don't drink-vfhiskeyany more. You men of $alem, if you will ket con verted; is the" Lumpers did, and turn frqm all your sins as they did, ydu will be as good as they." Such k deliKhtful human story would bjs hard to equal. It was two hours long, and it would take a book tp tell it all. But through out it breathed the spirit of trust and hope and conquest over self and sacrifice that brings hpiritual ricnes mcaicuiaoie.
