This Is al ways a good game and the deter mination of both teains to win gives promise of a better and bigger con test than in past years. Silverton holds a win over Chemawa in past years for this annual meet, but the players are new and Coach Davis isn't malting any brags for his boys. Chemawa players are fast and the battle will be real. A preliminary game starts at 7 o'clock and the main game at 8 at the Eugene Field gymnasium.

F. .Marson, Molalla Webb, Dallas C Dapp. Molalla Pengra, Lebanon G Standley, LeDan Slyter, Molalla.. G Petre, Dallas The 1934-35 all-star basketball squad of the Willamette Valley In- berscholastlc league, cnosen Dy tne coaches of the eight league teams, presents an unusually strong lineup of players who have been outstand ing throughout the season. Molalla, league champion, and Dallas, runner-up, shared honors by placing three men each on the two teams chosen. Lebanon placed two and Newberg and Silverton one each. In the forward position, Lane, flashy Newberg captain, stood out, especially in the last half of the season. Lane led all forwards in points scored, 127 In 13 games, and has one game lert to play. He was an important factor in Newberg's comeback during the last three weeks of play. This Is Lane's second year on the all-league team, and he was designated as captain of this year's team. Pleasant, Dallas, played very con sistent basketball throughout the season, and accounted for more than his share of Dallas' scores. Schwab, Silverton, led the league scorers for the first two weeks, but was handi capped by an injury which kept him out of part of later games. He Is a very accurate shot and could nolo down a berth on any "high school team. Marson, Molalla, played good basketball throughout the i and helped the Buckeroos a long way toward their championship. Other outstanding forwards were Johnson of Canby, Gustafson of Woodburn and Tuor and Elliott of West Linn. At center, Webb of Dallas, was clear choice for the first team. He led the league in scoring, with 136 points in 14 games, an average of almost 10 points per game, and he Dlaved an aggressive type of bas ketball that put Dallas out In front In a number of close games. Dapp of Molalla was a large factor in his team's successful season. Other outstanding centers were Melum of Canbv. Pfiefer of Newberg ana Marsh of West Linn. In the guard positions, there were few high scorers, the guards devot ing themselves mainly to defense and feeding to basket shooters. How ever. Pengra of Lebanon, and Sly ter of Molalla, were always good for several baskets a game, and acted as key men on offense as well as de fense. This Is Pengra's second year on the all-league team. Standley, Lebanon, and Petre of Dallas were exceptionally fast ball handlers well as outstanding delensive play ers. Other outstanding guards were Soecht of Silverton, Ohristenson of I Newberg and Dahl of Molalla. ly the visitors scarcely had an op portunity to touch it. The Coyotes went nlto an early lead by virtue of some good shoot ing on the part of Whelchel, Thomp son and Freeman stretching their advantage to 7 points about midway through the first half. Two long shots by Frantz which centered the hoop, Manning's foul conversion, a cripple by Petteys and a one-handed looper by Lemmon put the Bearcats out In front 13 to 13 at the half. The Coyotes went into an early lty to take advantage of rebound shots so savagely did Frantz and Erlckson charge in once Idaho let fly. Both sides used a strict man to to man style of play, resulting In the maximum of action. The win places Willamette in third place in the conference. Whit man, undefeated leader of the cir cuit, with one of the strongest ag gregations In years, will be here Monday and Tuesday for a two game series with the Bearcats.

Returning from a world tour that combined business and pleasure and re-demonstrated his tremendous pull at the box off ice., the Babe readily said he had no idea what he would do this summer, although he scare- ly could conceive the possibility tnat no baseball Job would be open to him. Ruth gave few definite answers to the rattle-fire of questions hurled at him when his boat docked but out of the conversation these points de veloped : 1. He will not wind up his career as a part-time performer or as pinch hitter spending most of his time on the bench. 2. His big ambition still Is to be come a major league manager. 3. If he signs a contract with the New York Yankees, It will be as a regular outfielder. "I'm so thrilled to get back home that I dont know what I will do, said the Babe. "It will take me few days to recover my bearings. "I don't want to leave baseball. I'd be lost without it. I think I'm entitled to a manager's job or a try at it, anyhow. I don't think I should be asked to sign as a player and sit on the bench waiting for a chance to pinch-hit, maybe once iu seven days. That's something I don't In tend to do. "I don't know whether I could play another full season as a regu lar. That would depend upon how I feel at the training camp, Even if don't sign, I intend to go to St. Petersburg to thaw out. I'm getting so old now I feel as though I belong there. Money Is not the primary con sideration with me now. I've got enough to live on. But I want to stay in baseball." The next chapter In the Ruth sa ga probably will come in a few days with Ruth toting h "Informal" contract to the offices of Col. Jacob Ruppert, Yankee owner. That con tract calls for a salary of $1 a year. It was offered as a stop-gap until the Yankees can discover Just what Ruth intends to do. The betting among baseball men Is now at even money that Ruth will sign another player's contract with Yankees and hope that a man ager's job will turn up beforo the 1936 season rolls around. latter, floor by a score of 40 to 36.
