BASKET BALL
GAMES GOOD
Large Crowd Watch Interesting
Games At Skating Rink—Val
dez Won Easily.
As the sporting editor had not re
covered from last Tuesdays’ episode
I was informed it was up to the re
ligious editor to report the basket ball
game at the skating rink last night
and I proceeded to do so. The games
were good, both of them, although,
naturally I enjoyed the game between
the young ladies the most. They
were a well matched team, having
about the same number of blondes
and brunettes on each side, and as
to playing the were good and were
both adept at missing the baskets,
in fact, that seemed to be their prin
cipal occupation. However, coming
down to the actual playing the White
team, consisting of Misses Coles, Kel
sey, Ingram, Hea*h and Mesdames
Brenneman and A. F. Sullivan, play
ed a little better game than the Blue
team, consisting of Misses Spence,
Fish, Una Korth, Esther Korth, Mil
ler and Keesler.
The White team had the ball in
action most of the time, but were kept
from making the basket continually.
There was considerable fouling on
both sides, and it was Miss Spence’s
ability to toss the ball into the bas
ket from the foul line that won the
game for the Blues, as she made two
baskets to her opponents one. At
the end of the first half Mrs. Bren
neman retired from the field of ac
tion and Mrs. Sullivan took her place,
holding down the floor in good shape
and making an excellent impression.
The game was an interesting one In
every way, and was finally won by
the Blues two to one.
But say, you should have seen the
way the Valdez team of men played
all around the Fort Liscum team.
There was nothing to it. The playing
of the Valdez team was simply great
and they have the passing of the ball
and throwing to basket down to a
science. The Fort Liscum team were
away in the air when it. came to
keeping the ball on the move. When
ever one of them would get it he
would throw it at the first scantily
dressed men he could see and trust
to luck it was one of his teammates,
which it generally wasn’t.
Snyder, captain of the Liscum
team, played by far the best game for
his side and his throw to basket in
the latter part of the first half was
an exceptionally pretty throw. For
the Valdez team Bush and Obert were
the stars, Obert also making a long
distance throw to the basket in the
first half of the game. Towards the
end of the game Sailing was knocked
out in a collision ai}d was succeeded
by Keel, who played a strong game.
The score is as follows:
First half, Valdez . 16
First half, Liscum . 6
Second half, Valdez . 18
Second half, Liscum. 1
Final score: Valdez, 34; Fort Lis
cum, 7.

Mrs. Fiske In Tess.
The appearance of Mrs. Fiske,
America’s greatest artiste, in motion
pictures marks another epoch in the
history of film progress. “Tess of the
D’Urbervllles,” Thomas Hardy’s in
spired story, made famous on the
stage by Mrs. Fiske’s glorious por
trayal and just recently produced by
the Famous Players Film Company,
Is one of the greatest subjects ever
produced in motion pictures. The pow
erful combination of one of the fore
most actresses of the day and the
most noted work of a famous novel
ist should serve to place the Famous
Players on a more important plane
than it has ever before occupied.
This production is the first of the
“Thirty Famous' Features a Year”
scheduled for release on the Famous
Players’ extended program. At the
Orpheum tonight at 8 o’clock. Ad

PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 6.—Oregon

MANY STATES
AM DRY
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.—The Pro
hibition League has announced that
fourteen states are now dry and that,
more will be added each year to the
list. The advocates of nation-wide
prohibition and of the manufacture
and sale of intoxicants expect to make
a determined effort at the next elec
tion to have the plank for prohibi
tion made part of the Republican and
Democratic platforms., Missouri is
expected to be added to the dry
states as soon as the legislature
meets, as the members of the state
legislative body are pledged to close
up all saloons.
CALIFORNIA WET
Bt 15OJB0 VOTES
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 6.—The
amendment to the state constitution
to make this state dry was defeateo
■by 150,000 votes. The big vineyard
Interests fought hard against the
measure and the customary rural dis
trict vote for prohibition was not
forthcoming from the southern sec
tion of the state and consequently
the northern half was outvoted by the
cities and the vineyard sections.
Under a provision of the constitu
tion the question of wet and dry Cal
ifornia cannot be voted upon for eight
years, so this state will remain wet
that length of time unless the consti
tution is changed, which is not likely.
