ARE TWICE VICTORIOUS Dallas Aggregations Open Season by Winning Two Basketball Games in Succession. MUNSING UNDERWEAR FOR Men Women Children Twenty different qualities. Every required style and size. There isn't a question about the better com fort and value of MUNSING UNDERWEAR. It's simply a question of how long it will be before you find it out for yourself. MUNSING UNDERWEAR is made to fit tailored as it were to fit the form and finished as no other underwear is finished. There are no bunglesome seams, no clumsily worked button holes, no loosely knit ankles or cuffs, and best of all they're always just the same shape and retain their elasticity until they're worn out, doesn't matter how often they have been to the laundry. This is the only place in Polk county carrying this splendid line. THE BEE HIVE STORE i.o.o.F.Bidg A Reliable Place to Trade Daiia. onon The basketball season was opened in Dallas last week with two games, in both of which the local players proved easily victorious. Friday night, the first game was played between the skating team of Dallas and the Falls City Rink team, the final soore being 28 to 7 in favor of the home team. The game was slow until the latter part of the second half, when the Dal las five seemed at last to "hit their gait," so to speak, and the last five minutes of the play was little more than a grand basket throwing exhibi tion with the militia players as the star performers. At no time during the game was the score close enough for the visiting team to cherish hopes of winning, and the local team proved itself the superior aggregation in every point The scoring for the home team was made as follows: Magers, four field goals; Elder, four; Williams, three; Brown, one; and four points on fouls. Falls City scored : Ellis, one ; Siefarth, one; Barber, one; one point on fouls. The performance of Friday night, however, was elipsed on the following evening by the work of the Dallas College team in its first league game for the season, played in the gym nasium against the team from MoMinnvllle. The size of the crowd In attendance showed that the basketball fans of Dallas are still as loyal as ever to their team and eager to do all they oan by force of good will and lung power to boost the local five on to victory. McMlnnville was also well represented in the throng on the side tines, about thirty enthusiastic sup porters having accompanied the team to Dallas. The visitors played a plucky game, cond ucting themselves in a thoroughly .sportsmanlike manner and never giving up the fight to the very last minute of the play, although it was clearly seen within the first minute of the play, that their defeat was inevitable. Matched against an aggre gation of players, stronger, heavier, more speedy and far more perfect in team work than they, the outcome was never in doubt for a single instant, but the McMlnnville team, by its plucky playing and the way in which it fought against every point scored by the Dallas five made a fast and interesting game out of what might otherwise have degenerated into a mere farce of goal throwing practice. Rice, as forward for Dallas, was undeniably the star of the evening, playing like a wizard and scoring two baskets to every one made by his companions. Out of the 33 points made by Dallas, 19 were credited to him, 16 on field goals and 3 on foul throwing. Fenton scored 8 points on field baskets, Simonton 4 and Ballan- tyne 2. E. F. McKee, of McMlnnville, lead in goal throwing for his side, scoring 4 on field goals and three on fouls. Richards, the only other man on the visiting team to score, threw two field baskets. Mackle, of Portland, acted as referee. The next league game to be played in this city will be between Dallas and Y. M. C. A., of Portland, and is scheduled for December 15. Those who attend the "Old Time Concert" to be given at the Woodman Hall, Wednesday night (tomorrow) under the direction of Mrs. Mae Wright, musical director in Dallas College, will have an opportunity of hear! net something novel in the line of musical entertainment and at the same time of extending well-merited assistance to the Dallas Free Library, for the benefit of which the entertain ment was arranged. The concert will begin at 8 o clock, and the program will consist entirely of the best songs of a few generations ago, songs that were classics at that time, have stood the test of years and are still recognized as classics among music lovers of today. For an evening at least, the sharp, catchy ragtime, whose spirit seems to permeate the very charaoter of nearly all of our modern songs, will be de throned and in its place will reign the old songs, the sweetness of whose melodies and the richness of whose harmouies has never been equalled. The program is long but every num ber is a -gem and to give an added feature of attractiveness to the enter tainment, the singers will appear in the costume of "ye old times" which they are representing. The people of Dallas always have been music lovers and the concert tomorrow night will doubtless be given the large and appreciative patronago it richly de serves. WILL SING THE OLD SONGS Mrs. Mae Wright's Chorus Will Pre sent Fine Program at Concert.
