Play will start at 8 o'clock tbis morning over the first 18, with the last round in the afternoon. Directors of the club have invited friends of the players and golf fans generally to form the gal lery. Club Two Tears Old Silverton organized its country club two years ago, with M. C, Woodard, H. R. Irish and George W. Hubbs as sponsors. Property totalling 100 acres had been bought in February, 1926, and tbe sour se was laid out by Col. A. C. Astbury of Portland. The club was launched with a membership of 2S and construction of the course was started March 1. A committee in charge Included .H. R. Irish. Dr. R. E. Klelnsorge and George W, Hubbs, First play was tn August of the same year. Irish was the first president and C. A. Reynolds was secretary. The "pioneer" greens committee In cluded Hubbs, p. L. Brown, and A. E. Janx. The first house com mittee was George W. ' Steelham mer. Dr. Klelnsorge and S. . E. Richardson. .- Woodard President ; M. C Woodard Is president now and greens committee members are A. W. Simmons. H. W. Pres ton and Floyd Ingram. F. p. sta mey. Dr. C. R. Wilson and Nye O. Bristol are members of the pres- snt uouse committee. In the Inter. renins; two years the course has been greatly improved and com pleto club house facilities have oeep provided. Interest la golf has doubled and redoubled ; at Silverton since or Sanitation, was completed. Team matches with Woodburn and Me- Aiianvllle clubs hare beea halved by Silvertoa players and Silverton won home- and return matfhea from Forest Hills Country club of wasningtoa county.

If Bend wins it can't be robbed of the second half title and al though there will be one more game here next Sunday with the Bend Eagles as the Senators op position, the only significant games left will be the playoff with Albany for the first half title, and the series In, which the winner of that playoff will engage with the Eagles. Since the Eagles have not been, defeated in a league game on their home diamond all season, chances for a Senator victory to day are extremely slim. With the lineup shifted to insure greater hitting strength and especially to avoid v the presence of too many left handed hitters who would be ineffective against Chinky Coo- vert's portside pitching, the Sen ators are organized to make the strongest bid of the season to up set Bend s string of home victor les. Coovert pitched a one hit game at Eugene last Sunday, so the Sa lem players are not expecting an easy day at bat. On the other hand, with a couple of costly ex periences behind him, Johnny Beck knows how to pitch in Bend's rarefied atmosphere now', and if be is at his best will not be routed as he was six weeks ago. The Senators will leave Bend for tbe return trip shortly after the game ends, .so as to get back borne and rest a few hours before tackling the fast University of Illinois team here Monday after noon. who me best schedule of games in a number or years al reaay lined up.

Italy! scored three firsts and on third and Argentina two firsts an two seconds and the Olympic com mittee declined to award the team championship to either one at th expense of the other. The Unite! States, defending champions, rank ed third with two seconds and ;t third, and Holland was fourth with one first and one third. In the opinion of ringside ex perts, Argentina deserved to rank first because of what were termed unfair decisions In two of the final bouts tonight. In the feather weight class, van Klaeveren, of Holland, was given the decision over Peralta of Argentina, al though experts at the ringside con sidered the Argentine had won decisively. In the finals of th lightweight division, Italy, repro sented by Orlandl, gained one ot its first places although .most ob servers thought Stephen Holaik of Auburn. N. Y.. should hav been adjudged the winner. The boxing competition, from .he time It started, was marked bv wild outbursts of displeasure from fans who disagreed with the ver dicts of the Judges. The final day of the championships, however, eclipsed all the others In length and vehemence of the protests. At times the referees were unable to make themselves heard.
