Parks Hearing
Is Last Case of
Recommittment

The last of the cases wherein an
inmate was committed to the state
insane asylum by a justice of the
peace was disposed of Wednesday
morning, when Judge Bushey is
sued a warrant to bring A. Park,
of Linn county before him for re-
commitment to the institution.
1t is said that Park was once a
justice of the peace himself and
knew something of the law and
that he is member of secret So
ciety who are trying to obtain his
release. 1t is also claimed that he
has been making speeches to the
inmates saying that he was held
unlawfully, and has on occasion
written letters to persons in Linn
county threatening county and
state officials for hsi detention.
1t was found recently that the
justice of the peace had no power
to commit "A person to the insane
asylum owing to the passage of a
recent law which left that provi-
sion out.

Pages Respond
To Appreciation
Vote of Senate

Three conspicuous characters ir
the senate during the session just
closed were Betty Frizeen of Marsn
field, Rodney Banks of Portland
and Charles Prail of Astoria, ages
ranging from 10 to 13 years, who
acted as pages for the senate. Be
fore closing they were called upon
for a speech and Master Prael was
truly equal to the occasion.
He stated that he appreciated the
courtesy that had been accorded
him on the part of the senate and
that it had been an enjoyable ses-
sion. He remarked that he liked
Salem and Salem's people. but he
liked Astoria and Astoria people
better. The other pages responded
when invited to speak.
Senator Moser suggested that
the house contribute toward a lit
tie present for the pages who had
been ~ faithful and kind during
the session and contribution was
made which amounted to 81 each
for the three pages.

Bearcats And
Mission aries
Play Tonight
Whitman Squad Is
Handicapped by Loss
of First Stringers
Thru Illness

The first of a two-game series OF
bask etball games will be played
this evening between the Bearcats
and the whitman college quintet at
the armory, and according to Coach
Mathews, the Bearcats have the
edge on the Missionaries for rne
coming series as it shall be played
on a wider court than the Whit
man floor which is peculiarly
adapted to the Bearcat style of
play.
In the first series of two games
played last week between these two
quintets, the Missionaries nosed out
the Bearcats by scant margins aft
er hard trussles. The Bearcats are
out for revenge, not only to even
up the series but to dislodge the
Missionaries from their precarious
hold upon third place.
On the other hand, despite the
fact the Missionaries are invading
the Bearcat camp with practically
a second team, due to injuries of
five first string men, the Whitman
collepe hoop artists are determined
to maintain unbFoken their chain
of victories which now numbers
five straight wins over northwest
conference teams. Those that have
met defeat at the hands of the
Missionaries are: Montana univer-
sity, Washington State college and
the Bearcats.
With the elimination of Comrada
and Carver, veterans of the Whit
man team, only one letterman re-
mains in the lineup. Sid Rich is
theonly letterman and captain of
the Missionaries and has been per-.
forming in mapor manner this sea-
son, frequently scoring over half of
his teammates tallies. He is ably
assisted by Reynolds at center,
Gurian, diminutive forward, and
Buzz" Shredder and Jack Laden,
at guards.
Coach Mathews Announces the
following lineup for this evening:
Wapato and Gillette, forwards;
Jackson, center; Dimick and Rarey
guards. Spares, McKittrick, Shafer.
Doney and Logan. Ralph Coleman
of o. A. C. will officiate.
