THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON PAGE THREE FIRE ADDS TO DESTRUCTION IN TORNADO ZONE TO BE STAGED IN W OAV( SATURDAY, MAKCH 21, 1925 "Vou bet w.j will," was the re ply made yei.trnl.ty by Guy K;Uh bun, uthK-iic director at Willam ette university, when usktd whether or not an attempt would oe made next year to etaKe a Pa cific coast hiKh schol basketball uturnamout in Salem. "NeU year we'll so at ft in i little ditiertut way," said Hath bun. "We'll Bee to i that the coast tournament coined jurit week after the tate louruameuU in Oregou, WubhiURton and Idaho. i hen the stale champions will have pleaiy of time to meet at Sa lem and still get away for the na tional tourney at Chicago if they Cure to do ro. Uuthbuu e pressed the belief that no other college on the Pa citic cua.st will succeed In "butting In and slag ins a coast meet in its )wn gymnasium. "1 believe the tnly schools at ail likely to try It would be the University of Wash ington and University of Lalifor- n a," he said, "and each of them would be afraid to try it because such un effort would immediately be opposed by the other. ' Next ytiir, Ions before the dates of the ftatc tournaments iu the tnree uorthwest states are set, in' vitatioiij will be extended to mem bers of the board of control of the Mgh BCiiool athletic associations in the three states, it waa indi cated by Rathbun. Invitations will not only be extended to teams winnin;; the tournaments to enter the coast meet, but individual members of the boards will be in vited to attend the coast tourna ment at Salem. This will assure the state tournaments being set early enough to allow for the in terstate meet, Kathbun believes. "Our greatest need now is more capacity in our gymnasium," the Willamette mentor state. "I have had the idea expressed to me by townspeople that we would have to f n crease our capaci ty, or we might lose even the state tourna ment. The way it is growing we do not have room even for that. Hathbun estimates that a substan tial gallery can be built entirely around the playing room at the gymnasium for a sum inside $2500. He Indicates that there is evr probability of an attempt be ing made to do this. "I have already received one generous contribution for thi purpose," he said, declining to n.ention the name of the contribu tor. When built the gallery will carry two rowe of seats for specta tors, with standing room behind them. It Is estimated that the capacity of the gymnasium will be Incresed from its present 1500 to over 2000. It became known for the first time yesterday that a coast meet could have been staged this year using a team from Nevada instead of Idaho. "If we had known i just a little sooner we could har got them," said Kathbun yester day. "I got word this morning from tha Idaho state champions, but I had already wired to the oth ers that tl:e coast tournament wa: off." NEW SCHOOL AT DETROIT READY FOR CCCUPANC Mill City. Or., Maivh 21.
