HOSTILE MOTHER-IM-LAW
BASIS OF DIVORCE SUIT
. (Continued from pag l)
urging her husband to go to work,
his mother . butted In and curtly
informed the plaintiff that the de
fendant had a fine line of ances
try behind him, and he didn't
have to take orders from any girl.
In their differences about their
domestic affairs, the defendant's
mother always took bis side in
the question." - i
"Before, she left." the complaint
states, "she told the , defendant
that she couldn't stand the wa
things- were going, and if things
didn't change, she would have to
leave. The defendant surlily said
to the plaintiff. 'If my mother isn't
good enough for you to live with,
you can beat if."
Other excerpts from the com
plaint follow: . j .
"About two months after their
marriage, the plaintiff came home
one 'day and fonnd the defendant
in one of his numerous grouches.
Thinking she might bring him out
of his grouch, she walked up to
him and tickled him slightly in
fun and in ood humor, where
upon the defendant violently kick
ed the plaintiff on the leg. ; The
blow was painful and her leg was
sore and black and blue for two
or three weeks thereafter. i
"This ' being more than the
plaintiff thought she was called
upon to stand, and being tired of
supporting the Indolent husband
and his over-lording mother, the
plaintiff decided to leave the two
of them to shift for themselves,
and a few days thereafter packed
up her trunk and. returned to Ore
ron. . ' t -'i - ' - i ;
- - - . i
"A short time before the plain-1
tiff left; the defendant, she noticed
that the lock on her, trunk was
broken, and an inspectLoij- Dj tne
contents disclosed that a set of
silverware, valued at about $50,
which was given to her by her par
ents as a . wedding , present, was
missing. The plaintiff charged the
defendant with being guilty of
taking aforesaid, which he violent
ly denied. " Thereupon, the plain
tiff made inquiries, and located
her silverware in a pawn shop,
where the defendant had pawned
it for $12, and had squandered the
money.

HISTORY OF HOOP
LEAGUES IS TOLD
Basketball Tournaments In
augurated in 19 17; Meet
ings Prove Successful
' History of the Oregon state high
school tournament held at Willam
ette university is interesting from
a number of view points. Th
tournament was inaugurated In
1917 by Williamette university
through the efforts and under the
direction of Coach Mathews. These
first tournaments were not state
wide affairs but included only the
Willamete valley teams and a num
her from southern Oregon. The
first tournament was played be
tween 7 contending teams and wan
won by Roseburg high school. The
next two years 1 8 and '19 went
to Salem high by decisive scores.
The tournament became state
wide for the first time In 1920
his tourney included 12 team
from all parts of the state and
the winner this year was Salem
iiigh although they had a difficult
time of nosing out Fianklln high
if Portland in the final game.
The next year. 1921, was per
haps the most disastrous up untfl
that time for it was as a result of
the competition of that season
that the Portland High Schools
found it expedient to withdraw
from the State League and from
the.' Portland City league.. This
has naturally caused a great deal
of difficulty as an isolated group
that does not meet the other teams
of high school standing Is always
expected to cause. The tourna
ment that year was won by Frank
lin High pf Portland, however.
Since that time the tournament
has been placed on a basis of nine
districts each of which determine
the district championship by com
petition in that district. The win
ners of; each district then meet at
Salem and decide the state winner.
In the three yearj that Portland
did not participate the champion
ship was won by Ashland in '22.
by the University High of Eugene
in '23 and by Medford in '24.
At the first pari of this season
of basketball competition the Port
land School were allowed to meet
the Association Schools in compe
tition under certain specified con
ditions. This proved very success
ful and as a result of the friendly
feeling built up and because of a
growing demand on the part of a
number of fans, the winner of the
Portland series. Franklin high,
has been invited to participate in
this year's tournament.
The tournament can now be
considered as a state wide affair
and the winner of the tournament
is the state high school champion.
Last year . the Medford team,
winners of the state championship,
displayed such an excellent brand
of basketball and showed them
selves to be such good sportsmen
that they were invited to attend
a national tournament held at the
University of Cnicago. While no
definite information has been re
ceived here it U very ; likely that
the winner of this year may re
ceive a similar invitation.
MID CANARY
FOIL OF WIllS
Suspense and surprise are the
predominating characteristics of
"The Cat and the Canary," pre
mier mystery play that comes to
the Grand theater Wednesday eve
ning. Different from most pro
ductions of this type it also em
bodies a strong line of clever com
edy, and contains considerable of
the weird, startling and unusual.
The fact that "The Cat and the
Canary" Is being brought to this
city by Henry Duffy, the producer,
exactly as it was staged in New
York and In the principal munici
palities of the Pacific coast,
should add greatly to the interest.
The company is represented as be
ing on a par with that seen on
Broadway with Robert Toms, who
first starred in it when it started
on Its tour from New York and
later appeared in San Francisco
and Los Angeles, still in his ori
ginal role. He will be seen as
Paul Jones, a likeable young vet
erinary, who has a sense of humor
and makes the most of it. This
is the comedy part In the piece
and Toms is a real comedian. He
should keep the audience continu
ally on edge with his particular
brand of fua making: ! j J . ,
Another Important characteriza
tion In' the offering is (hat ' of
Mammy Pleasant, the Wesh Indlah
voodoo woman, about whom most
of the mystery centers. This, role
will be found admirably taken by
Evelyn Selsbie, an actress qf ?reat
reputation. Duffy has gieri the
play a sumptuous mountihg and
in the supporting company
found Marion Sterley, Frederick
Knight. Marie Barker. Leigh mill
ard, Harlene Hoover,
Browning, Allen Dailey.
