Thirty, three ; years ago. Sousa
brought his band to Salem. He
couldn't recall anything about the
visit.: Neither could he remember
much about his visit here .'two
years ago. But,' for that matter,
he does not; know the fall names
of his players. His bneines man

, "I like -Oregon, though," he ob

right here.' "
How long will Sousa continue
to .tour? "Until I die," which from
his apearance means a long time
yet. t He hopes to bring his an
nual transcontinental tours up to
fifty "in number. ' ;
When 25 years of age, Sousa

Thirty f five years ago, .sousa

There, the Chicago syndicate sug

lined Up and a tour of the eat

toured the Pacific coaft, plnving
among other places,, in;; Salem.
Since then 18 trips have been
made to the west. Five European
tours have been made.1 T
"Baseball" methods are used
by Sousa to replenish his person
nel. Three scouts are employed
to travel about the country, listen
to bands, and watch for outstand
ing musicians. When a prospect
is located, he is sent to headquar
ters and given a thorough try-out.

If past performances mean any
thing the Loggers will defeat Wil
lamette when they battle In the
iorth Saturday. Puget Sound
hasn't lost a: football game to the
Bearcats since -19 20.
Saturday's tilt at Tacoma prom
ises not only to be a decisive fac
tor in ' the northwest conference
race, but also is likely to be one
of the toughest grid battles of the
season.
In 1920, the Bearcats . treked
north ; and defeated -Puget Spund,
24 to 0. Previous to that year,
Willamette had defeated the Log
gers twice, once in 1919, 10 to 0,
and in 1911. when the present
Methodist college In Tacoma was
called University of Puget Sound.
39 to 0- From 1920 on, the log
ger have won every game.
Coach "Spec" would be pleased
to upset the team directed by. his
old coaching mate, "Cac" Hub
bard. There has always been close
friendly rivalry between these two
men. -and the teams thev coach ac
quire the same spirit, when pitted
against each other. "Suec" per-
rhaps, would like nothing better
this season than to spoil that six
years of straight victories the Log
gers hold. -
The Bearcats continued to show
Improvement yesterday, but still
lack the polish they must have to
step In fast., competition. What
they lack - In brilliance, however,
they certainly make up In dash
and; nerve. It will take a smart and
potrerf ul4 , Logger backf ield to
break through the line.
The Logger tilt will probably
see the freshman, Rogers, at the
center position. Rogers is a steady
fellow with enough 'weight and
power to fill the bill.
Diets and Cranor will alternate
as regular signal barkers this
season. Little "Dutch"9 has the
edge on Cranor and open field
running, and is quicker to size up
possible openings. His size is a
great handicap and seldom is a
game completed without the 138
pound fellow getting an Injury.
Cranor Is heavier and runs the
ball with proper interference.
The big man McKensie, whose
scolarshlp deficiencies will be
made up by Saturday, will start at
fullback, . Mumford and DePoe
will probably take the ends, Zel
ler and Hauk, the halfback posi
tions, Woodworth and Verateeg
will be. the tackles and Mort and
Propp the guards.
Coach Keene plans to .take 35
men to Tacoma, leaving Friday
morning at 6:45 a. m. The Bear
cats apparently will go north prac
tically intact, unless some one is
injured this week in scrimmage.
All the men on the injured list
should bo recovered by Saturday.
;A Bearcat caravan of rooters,
similar to the 'one that attended
the -Pacific game at Forest Gnave
last 'year, will go north., A spe
cial train is being arranged, two of
the classes having voted ;to send
those - who wanted to go, and
coutdnt afford it. If 100 sign up
to make - the . trip, the railroad
company will. make a special rate
of $6.50 for. thai round trip. The
special, train, will leave Saturday
morning at 6:45, : reaching Ta
coma at 2MJ5 in the afternoon, 25
minutes before 'the game is called.

Lomskl. contender ; for the
world's light heavyweight cham
pionship, ran into the toughest
opppsition he had encountered
since his fight here January 1
with Joe Anderson.' He was the
aggressor throughout and after
he had amassed a safe lead in the
first seven rounds, appeared to re
lax with the result that his cool
and clever antagonist counter
punched a shade h better In
each of the three closing rounds.
Belaager was cautious all the
way, else he might hare gotten a
ura, ringslders believe.
Lomski rocked ' Belaager with
fierce right hooks to the jaw add
middle In the third, fourth, fifth
and sixth rounds, all of which he
won decisively though not by an
overwhelming margin. Belanger
contented himself with defensive
tactics except on occasions when
he was backed into a corner and
had to fight his way out.

card here tonight. The fighters,
in the heavyweight class, gave the
fans one ot the most interesting
