This is the news which will please those fans who have been ;n the habit in the past of contri buting to . the Senators' support through donation, ;oing to be asked to itart of the present season, and if I the plan works out as it is expect ed to work out, they will never be isked for donations again. The plan is this; the baseball lub will have a supply of sea- ion tickets printed, and these will be sold to all who wish them prior o the opening of the season. It is hoped in this way to secure suffi cient funds in advance to make the donation plan unnecessary. This plan has not been feasible in the past because gate receipts were split on all of the home games and if season tickets had been used, the bookkeeping would have been too complicated a task. But this season, with the Sena tors a member club in the new Willamette Valley league, the home clubs keep all of the gate eceipts, and can raise their mon ey in any way they see fit. Most of the other clubs are follo4ng the same program. Dr. E. IL Hobson was elected president of the club again this season, with George Riches as treasurer, Joseph H. Adolph sec retary, and Cuyler Van Patton, Vic MacKenxie and Henry Comp ton directors. Edlunds of Portland, referee.

The Dallas team was the more aggres sive throughout the game, but the Independence boys matched them with a fine, strong fighting spirit which lasted to the final whistle. Burch, Independence guard, was conceded to be the most outstand ing man on-either team In the three games ; played be tween Dallas and Independence the scores stood: first game. 31-19 favor Independence; second game. 19-18 favor Dallas, and In Monday night's play off 23-10 favor the boys from the county seat. Mon day night's game was played be fore a crowded house with all available standing room taken. several nunarea ians were on hand to support the Dallas team and the Monmouth rooters were united with the Independence boosters. The silver loving cup was pre sented to the Dallas teajn by County Superintendent Josiah Wills. Lyman Meador. coach of the Normal school, read the lineup of the mythical all-star team picked by the various coaches from the players of the seven county teams. First team Included Grant, Falls City, and Stapleton, Inde pendence, forwards; McBee, Dal las, center; Burch. captain. Inde pendence, and Gerlinger, Dallas, guards. Second all-star team:, Forette, Dallas, and Price, Rlckreall, for wards; Chrlsttnsen, Captain, Beth el, center; Syron, Dallas, and Harp, Independence, guards.

Dallas, forward; Hatch, Falls City, center; TroxeL Independence, guard, and Mlckelson. i Independ ence, forward. These 18 players were chosen from a. total number of 3 entered in the tournament. The system of determining the county championship by the per centage made throughout the seas on will no doubt be discarded in the future In favor of the double elimination tournament system. In the two-day tournament the competing teams were eliminated as follows: Grand Ronde, Falls City, Rlckreall, Bethet, Monmouth and Independence. Excepting in the last game both a referee and umpire were used throughout the tournament and the manner In which Arthurs ' of Corvallis and "Chappy" King of the Normal championship basketball team handled the games was entirely satisfactory to the teams and fans alike, Rn m m a rv nf final e-amA' Dallas (23) (10) Independence Syron (4) ....F 8tapleton; Forrette (9) . .F. .
