game of a double header and the
loss by San Francisco and Los An
geles of a game each' to Oakland
and yernon, respectively. Seat
tle's lead in the league is approx
imately a game and 'a half. Los
lAngeles and San, Francisco al
most tied for second place with
Los Angeles a shade ahead that
figures out to a matter of several
decimal points. Oakland finished
fourth. . -
s The victorious Seattle team did
not have to win provided both San
Francisco and Los Angeles lost a
game each. For good measure
Seattle did win the! first game
against Portland, however, by a
score' of 12 to 4. The second
game was lost by Seattle, 1 to 15.

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

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 planned to
have the league wind up the serifs
before the holidays. f
Comtnander Carson of Delbert
Reeves; post, American legion, of
Silverton, was in Salem Monday
conferring with King Bartlett,
athletiq manager of the local post,
relative to the organization of a
number of legion teams in the dis
trict and the participation in a
separate league. 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. With practice gained in
the local league, the American
legion ! expects to put forth ; a
strong contender in the Inter-post
league.!

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

set this, the local flax was said
to possess an unusually great

to, in my opinion, your flax here
is assured of being the second
finest in the world, bar none. 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.
