asked W. E. (Dan) Burns, local rep
resentative of the GMC motor truck.

But she never stops TO think that
these very autos are one Of the chief

days game. Lincoln however was
still going strong last night. and has
the advantage of a long string of sub
stitutes who are about as good as the
first string men.
lincoln Surprises Albany
In the semi-final game last night
Lincoln surprised the dopesters by
the easy manner in which they de-
feated Albany SOIL. Both teams were
already exhausted from their hard
afternoon games. but on account OF
their style of play this handicapped
Albany more than II did Lincoln. AL
bany could not connect with the long
shots. while Lincoln, playing a fast
passing game and working the ball to
easy shooting distance, were less both

was out of the game, but this did not
seem to weaken the team. seek and
Cole shot most of the baskets.

Albany: Moore t7), Wilkinson 90

Games arc Closer
The second round of games yester.
day afternoon were more hotly con-
tested than the preliminaries. and ev-
cry team played basketball which
would have credited most any col
lege team.
Lincoln looked somewhat stale in
the game with Ashland, and If the
southern Oregon ream had kept up
the pace they started with the score
might have been close. Bryant Of Ash
land rang up twelve points almost
unaided. Steffen and Beck played the
best game for Lincoln.

Salem Beats la Grande
Salem had a tough time taking the
game from La Grande, 1920. The
eastern Oregon team started out in
the lead and threw a scare into the
local rooters. AT the end OF the first
half the score stood 1912 for Salem,
but from that point weight and con-
dltlon began to tell, and Salem scored
% points to La Grande's 5 in the
final period. Shaefer and Boise were
responsible for most OF Salem's scor-
