Played Good Hockey.

Portland, Or, Feb. 17.-Due to the
fine skating and stick work of Tommy
Dunderdale, Charles Tobin and one or
two more of Captain Moose John
son IS Rosebuds, Portland was within
half game of climbing out of the
Pacific Coast Hockey association eel
lar today. The Buds defeated Spokane
last night by the overwhelming score
of nine to one.
On three occasions Dunderdale Sc
cured the puck behind his own goal and
wig wagged his way through the entire
Spokane team for three goals. Tobin
scored two unassisted goals and an
other on a pass from MARBLES who took
Harris position, as Smoky has an in
jured leg which prevented him from
proceeding in the slaughter. johnson
was there with his sensational rushes
and although he succeeded in passing
the defense men had bad luck with his
shots and did not register a score.
A heated argument between Genge
of Spokane and the mild Glenn Loughlin
of Portland resulted in a fist fight,
after witnessing which the spectators
decided that as a fighter, Genge is a
good hockey player. Both men were
benched for ten minutes.
Tommy Murray, suffering from a
stiff neck, made some wonderful stops.

LOOKING FOR FIGHTS

Tom GibbOns Like Les Darcy
Hunting Someone Who
Won't Scrap
By H. c. Hamilton,
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

Omitted Press Staff Corresponding
New York, Feb. 17-Tom Gibbons,
brother of Mike, is having just as hard
a time today finding some one TO fight
as his more famous brother. Tom g
manager has talked fight TO every
promoter in New York and they're all
willing TO do business, but there ism Z
first class fighter who is ready 10
help stage the affair.
Toms manager today began efforts
to force Billy Miske, the st. Paul light
heavyweight, into q bout. Miske out
weighs the younger Gibbons serapper
by about twenty pounds, but he says
he doesn I care for that if he can just
induce Miske to get into the ring with
him.
''Some of that recently gained
popularity will retire from the Miske
family them Tom declares. 81 have
whipped Miske and 1 can do it again.
If the middleweights don't want to
battle me l guess III step into the
light heavyweight.
Tom s manager claims for him that,
among others, he frightened Battling
Levinsky to cover when talk of scrap
was started.
Tom S last bout was with Bob Moha
in Milwaukee.
He is popular there and probably
will try to get match in the Wiseon-
sin metropolis, should he continue to
be left out in New York affairs.

Butterfat dropped four cents this
morning to keep in proportion with the
price Of creamery butter which took a
four cent drop few days ago, For
two days, butterfat was quoted four
cents higher than butter. Disturbed
conditions in the sugar market is re-
sponsible for the advance Of 25 cents
a hundred yesterday and an additional
advance Of so cents today. This brings
cane sugar up to $685.
The freeze in Florida is responsible
for the scarcity of lettuce and celery
hs well as cauliflower. California is now
called on to supply the entire market.
Hence the scarcity and chances for
