They looked ex ceptionally good in recently beating Bandon, and at Myrtle Point last Friday night they outplayed the Bob cats for almost three quarters before things went haywire. What the lineup in the Marshfield fray will be is unknown? Loub Don aldson flashed ao brilliantly at Myrtle Point that he may be a starter. Stone cypher has been working at center this week, but Coach Hartley will not state what thia move may lead to. An injured ankle at Myrtle Point handicapped Earl Morris, and barring a like occurrence he should be the one certain starter. The erratic play of Collier and Davis has put the ques tion mark on these lads, while Pook the aggressive center, has not round ed into four quarter shape, as yet As a result of funds gained through games played by the Coquille inde pendent football team last fall, a banquet will be held at the Coquille Hotel at 8:30 p. m. next Monday eve nings a* a reward for the boys who participated in the play.

National Moose Meeting Much local interest has been aroused by the announcement of plans for the mid-winter conference by Pil grim Governor James J. Davis, of the Loyal Order of Moose, which is being held in Washington, D. C., February 22, 23 and 24. In addition to having members of the local chapter of the Women of the Moose attend the Mooseheart Alumni Association din ner on Saturday night, which will be the closing feature of the conference, provision has also been made where by every chapter may have its United States Senator and member of the House of Representatives attend the dinner as its special guests. Thus, every chapter can be reperaented by proxy, at least The local chapter received letters from Supreme Dictator Albert J. Sar tori, of Spokane, Wash., calling at tention to the importance of the con ference and urging all chapters to send the largest delegation possible to it Local women who held the Friendship Degree also received let ters from Pilgrim Governor Davis and Grand Recorder Katherine Smith, giving an outline of the conference program and its aims.
