WESTERN FIVE
DOWN BUSINESS
Red and White Quint Show
Great Form in Defeating
Stenographers.
Standing of Teams.

Western fve broke the tie in the
High School basketball series
Yesterday when they defeated the
Business quint in the "Y' gym in
a hard fought contest, Is to Z.
Business started Off with a rush
and at the end Of the first quarter
was four points out in front, and
Western had not registered a point.
In the second quarter speed began
to tell on the Stenographers and
Western forged to the front. At
the end of the half Western was
leading the Stenographers by 3
points, as the score stood Western
Z: Business 4. In the second half
Western went way out in front and
was never in danger OF being over
taken. Western scored 13 points
during this period while Business
was able to register but points,
all by the free toss route.
So closely did Western guard the
Business players that Raedy was
the only one to register a goal
from the floor during the contest,
this coming in the first half. West
ern on the other hand shot six
goals from the floor during the
game besides six free tosses from
the 15-foot mark.
Heron was the bright star at
caging the ball as. he scored FIVE
of the six baskets by his team.
Colburn, Of Business. blew several
shots for the basket when right
under it and free from any inter
ference, which would have made a
difference in the final score.
Sinclair NJ Wesfern and Fapan
of Business, attempted to make
long shots from the side of the
court, but both failed to register
during the game.
Western showed an improvement
in its defensive work and the team
work as a whole was about the best in
the series to date. Coach Morse
has built up his offensive strength
and the scoring machine is now
working better together. The line

CANS GREATER
THAN LEONARD
Lightweight Must Come
Some to Be Equal Of
Negro Battler.

Enthusiastic followers of Benny
Leonard's career as a boxer are in
clined to be a trifie too optimistic
concerning his ability.
He is being hailed as the greatest
lightweight since Cans and ranked
with the great negro, with Lavigne
and with the other greats of the
past generation.
Any comparison Of the boxers Of
today and those OF yesterday must
of course be somewhat out of TO
Gus. Unless two men are in the
ring together IL is pretty hard to
tell a whole lot about their respec-
tive abilities. providing they are Of
anyways near the same caliber.
But even at that ii is going a
tribe too far to compare Leonard
today with Lavigne, Cans or Frank
Erne at their best.
This trio combined all that is
great in fighting. They could hit.
box or stall. They knew every
trick of the game. They were game.
They were as good over the 40
. round route as in a short bout. They
gave away weight and fought out
of their class.
Leonard has shown only a few OF
these ring accomplishments. He
can hit There is no question about
that There has perhaps been no
harder hitter since Aurellio Her
rea. He is a good boxer. as shown
by the ease with which he defeated
those master boxers, Johnny Kill
bane and Freddie Welsh.
Leonard is still very young. Per-
haps when he has the experience
of Cans he will prove the greatest
lightweight of all time.
But II is a question of whether he
will ever show the gameness shown
| by Cans when the latter took a ter
rife battering from the rushing
| tearing Nelson in ~ rounds; or the
gameness and endurance which
caused Lavigne to give away
weight and go out OF his class to
meet and defeat the greatest well
ter-weight of all times, Joe VOL
colt, or the cleverness of Kid Critic
whose all-round work astonished
all the boxers of his day.
But so far as late champions are
concerned, Leonard is undoubtedly
supreme. 1t would be unfair to him
to place him in the same class with
Ritchie or a Welsh.

Revenue of Oregon. Cheese

University of Oregon, Eugene, Feb.
l2.-Oregon produced more than 49,
100000 pounds of cheese last year,
Tillamook county alone producing S.
100000 pounds.
These interesting and impressive fig
ures were collected at the University

who had made a special study of the
cheese industry of the state.
Miss Lucas investigation reveals al

cheese produced in this state is con-
stantly decreasing

found new markets in the middle west

are also said to be under suspicion.
The guards recognized the tools
found in the attic as those which had
been missing since George Clark es-
capped in January, 1916. Clark was re-
captured and returned to the prison in
April, 1916.
1t is the opinion of prison officials
that the plan was to make the break
at the time the convicts are released
from their cells at night either to at
tend school or to attend the picture
show. Insead of filing down the steps
to the chapel, as many as were in on
the plot would climb on top cf their
cells and await favorable opportuni-
ty to crawl through the hole in the
ceiling and climb from the attic to the
roof, and from there manage to get

War Must Continue
Declares LIOyd-GeOrge

London, Feb. 12.-The war must go
on, Premier Lloyd-George told the
house of commons today.
"There is no real peace meaning,
either in Hertling's or Czernin Is
declarations, he said.
"There is no word in regard to Bel
gium or Poland, or the rights of
France or Italy.
''In the absence of anything definite,
it is our duty to go on with the war;
In reply to Former Premier Asquith IS
request for further information regard
ing the Versailles conference, Lloyd
George said:
cit is impossible to say anything re-
garding the decisions reached without
giving information to the enemy
Former Premier Asquith at the open
ing of debate today asked further in
formation regarding the inter-allied
conference at Versailles. "There has
been some just and some unjust
criticism of our military and naval
leadership" declared Asquith, ''but
the nation s confidence is mistaken, )"
and the people look with distrust on
any proposition to clothe the supreme
war council with executive functions.
He asked if any change had been
made in the status or functions OF Field
Marshal Haig and General Robertson.
Lloyd-George begged Asquith not to
press the government to give informa-
tion for (Which the enemy would pay
largely, " regarding arrangements made
for countering the enemy's attacks.
Asquith arose amid tremendous
cheering and protested against the.
Ffnsinuations of the premier.
Lloyd-George withdrew any insinua
tions Asquith thought he had made.
The premier said the situation on
the west front in recent weeks had be-
come more menacing. He said the al
lies superiority was gradually dimin-
ishing and that unification of their
armies was therefore essential to meet
the danger.
The premier, revcrting to the Yer
sailles conference said both Haig and
Robertson were present and approved
