Scheduled Definite date of the opening of the inter-scholastic football season for Salem high school is still up in the air, for though the game with Albany is definitely scheduled Cor this week-end. it has not been decided whether the game will be played Friday or Saturday. f'We i will play Albany Friday afternoon if possible." Coach Hollis Huntington said last night. "The game will be played here.

One; of the open dates has been filled, Grant high school of Port land having been signed up for November 22 by Dennis Heenan, athletic manager.

China pheasants, while fairly plentiful, are less numerous than they were a month before the sea- buy it for the price 1 PHONE 885 Market son opened, according to , Dick U'Leary, local sportsman and dog -fancier. This is due, he claims, to the preseason hunting engaged in by a number of men. . "A month ago there were more birds in the field than there were the openjng day," O'Leary declar ed recently. "By failing to wait until thef season is officially open ed, these men have slaughtered more birds out of season than are killed by the more ethical hunter, who enjoys his sport in the proper season." 1 I ; TWO BASKETBALL ! LEAGUES TALKED Commercial League Holds First Meeting; Legion Posts Propose One T The fpotball season has hardly gotten under full sway but already basketball fans are beginning to show signs of activity and two leagues ;are under process of or ganization. At the call of Hob Boardman, physical director of the YMCA, a number; of interested parties met at The Spa Monday noon and out lined plans for the commercial bas ketball league, which has played during past seasons. : According to present plans there will be eight teams in the league this year. These are the Ameri can Legion, Bankers, Central Pharmacy, Union Oil Anderson & Brown. I Standard Oil, the ONG and Hauser Brothers. Another meeting will be held at the YMCA Friday I night.

It is believed possible that posts at Salem. Sil verton j Albany, Dallas and Inde pendence might organize I such teams.! !A meeting to further dis cuss the matter will be held in Silverton Friday night. ". , j In the event that this second league is organized, the games will not begin until after the holi days and consequently not conflict with any of the Commercial league playing.

In commenting upon the Willamette valley flax he said that while it was fine in many respects, it was a little harsh and hempy when it comes to spinning, but that proper pulling and treat ment would remedy this. To off set this, the local flax was said to possess an unusually great strength. : I .. "Flax should be pulled just as the poll begins to form."

The growers have been raising the flax for fiber and Beed at the same time, This cannot be done and do the flax full Justice. You can have the seed or the 'fiber, but not both from the same field. There is sufficient acreage in the Willamette valley to produce seed to supply the needs of' the rest of the world and still not hamper the flax industry." ; ' Mr. Andrews cited the possibil ities of the industry upon an aver age yield of 2 V& tons to the acre which. Kobert . Crawford, superin tendent of the state flax- industry, said was a little too high, the average yield being about two tons to the acre, I'sing his original figures,, for; sake of comparison, the speaker pointed out that from the 5000 acres of flax in the val ley there would be a l,500 tons yield, of which 10 per-cent; was fiber At 30 cents a 'pound, or $672 a ton,, the total revenue from this acreage would be $840, 000 annually. From proper pull ing this could be increased'' at least 25 per cent, he said, giving a total receipt of over $1,000,000 from thet same acreage. The method of retting flax at the state prison was highly prais ed by the speaker, who .said he did not believe it could be improv ed upon, but that other details would have, to be worked out to meet local requirements. These were held to be inexpensive.

"For thirty years. Senator La Follefte has led. the struggle for better government. . . "There is much in this election campaign that compels that part of the people who seek honest government to give, heed.

"Those are some of the issues which the people are asked to en tirely ignore. . "There are also several great issues that should not be forgotten in this most serious campaign. While every honest, loyal, just minded citizen should register in an emphatic way his abhorrence of the corruption which has-permeated our government, he must not forget that k'- child lite is to be protected, our people saved from dangerous immigration,, that relief shall be given the farmers, that compulsory labor laws shall not be passed, and that government by injunction shall not continue! he must vote for members ot con gress and a chief executive who will" be true to labor, the farmers and the people. ; . "Political parties are no better than their platforms. Candidates are not likely seriously to go be yond their platforms If elected The platform that the republican party adopted at its Cleveland convention, the platform the de mocrats adopted in New York, both put to shame the most reai tionary platforms ever adopted by political parties."

Southworth is an experienced public speaker, having made quite a name for himself even before en tering college, j He went to Salem high school and was a member of the state championship team turn ed out by that school in 1920. While a freshman at Willamette her was a member of the squad that took the eastern tour. By a curious coincidence he will meet his old colleague in the con test on November 11. No public announcement ,has reached Salem as to the speaker to be put up by Stanford university, but unless something, unforseen happens it will undoubtedly be Robert Lit tier, . former Salem high debater and two year debaters at Willam ette. It was with Littler that Southworth won the state high school championsip; it was with LJttler that Southworth invaded the middle west two years ago. covering a distance of over 3000 miles on the trip. Now it will be against Littler- that - Southworth will clash for the coveted honor of being adjudged the best extern poraniousj speaker on the Pacific 1 E IPPUf SAGE TEA Look Young!;.
