FROST DAMAGE
IS VERY LIGHT
The heavy frost experienced In
Hoseburg last night, did practically
no damage throughout the county.
The temperature, according to the
weather bureau reports, went to 31
degrees, not low enough to serious
ly injure the fruit buds. Many sec
were covered '
tions of the county
with fog which prevented the frost
from doing any Injury. All over the
valley the fog hung thick this morn
ing so that the sun did not reach the
crops until after the frost was gone.

in the least. It was stated. There wasj
some loss
because inexperienced
growers cut the besds while tbe
frost was still upon tbem. Broccoli
should not be eut until after the frost
Is out, as otherwise they will not
stand shipment.
County Agent Cooney lays that
there may be some damage to peach,
apricot and almond trees. He ex
recta to make a survey In about two
days, which will be tbe nearest date
when the amount of damage can be
ascertained. He does not believe,
however, that there haa been any
great amount of Injury. In some lo
calities the peach trees are In full
bloom, and are therefore susceptible
to frost, and there may be some loss,
but tbls is not true In all places.

Convention of All Such Or

for Near Future.
DATE NOT YET FIXED
Cherrians Propose Meeting in
April, But Umquas Desire
to Hold Conference at
Time of Carnival.
A convention of all booster clubs
or the state of Oregon, for the pur
pose of considering mutual prob
lems and outlining a program for
the stale's betterment. Is planned by
the Salem Cherrians and Umpqua
Chiefs: The King's council of the
Cherrians conceived the plan, and
as Hoseburg 1b the most centrally
located R. O. Snelllng, Chancellor
of the Rose, was Instructed to come
to Hoseburg to place the plan be
fore the Umpqua Chiefs.
Chief Umpqua Neuner and Chief
Broccoli Lawrence met with Chanc
ellor Snelling yesterday afternoon
and outlined a plan which will be
submitted to all of the booster or
ganisations of the state In the hope
of arriving at a decision which will
be satisfactory to all clubs.
"Tho purpose wnich the Cher
rians have In mind is to promote
nospitallty, Mr. Snelllng stated.
"We have well organized Chambers
of Commerce to meet the tourists
and show them our commercial and
Industrial resources. They are then
turned over to the real estate men
who show them homos and ranches
and try to Induce them to locate.
but we are neglecting the most lm
portant part, and that ie, showing
them a good time, so that they will
want to come back. We should be
organized to meet the tourists, pro
vide entertainment for them, direct
thorn to places where they may en'
Joy the greatest scenery that tho
entire world has to offer.
"We must forget our cnmyunlty
rivalry, that Is our knocking one
another, and all work for tho Btate
at large. There Is no use of one
community pulling for Itself and
running down the others, we Bhould
all work together, have a uniform
system of directing the visitors to
tills state to the best we have to
offer In every community. We
should become better acquainted
and know what all the state baa to
offer. When a tourlBt leaves Port
land be should be directed what to
see In tho Willamette Valley and as
he travels south should be met and
entertained by organized booster
clubs who will see that ho Is hos
pitably taken care of. Aa he leaves
the Willamette Valley ba should be
told of what Is ahead and told about
side trips and scenic points which
should be taken. By close coopera
tion among the booster clubs of tbe
",ale
we believe that a very good
system can be worked out and the
feluie will uu ueiiw, nii-u.
The Umpqua Chiefs re highly
elated over tne prospects or sucn
convention and conference and will
gladly welcome the other clubs of
the state to tbe city. It Is proposed
to make It a gala occasion and en
tertainment Is already being consid
ered. Tentative plans Include a
ban'iuet, parade, street sarulval and
danre. It was the intention of the
Cherrians to have the convention
some time during the month of
April, but It may be decided to have
the meeting at tbe same lime as the
urawherry carnival, which Is to be
held the latter part of May,
It Is the plan to bring the entire
membership of each of the clubs to
Hoseburg to participate In tbe big
union celebration. Kach organiza
tion will select a certain few of Its
members to serve as official dele
gates so tbat the talking will be
limited and tbe work made easier to
handle. This conferenoe could be
held while the other members were

FAST GAME TO BE
PLAYED TONIGHT
Roseburg and Medford to
Clash at Local High
School Gymnasium.
BIG CROWD IS EXPECTED
Interest in Contest Is Keen
and Huge Delegation Is
Accompanying Med
ford Players.
School spirit la running high today
In anticipation of the basketball
game to be played tonight between
the Roseburg and Medford high
schools. The championship ( south
ern Oregon lies between those two
teams, and the game tonight will be
large factor In determining that
honor. If Roseburg wins, a third game
will be necessary, but If Medford
wins, Roseburg loses the champion
ship and the right to play at the
state conference.
Tonlght'a game la expected to draw
the largest crowd ever attending a
basketball game In this city. The fact
that these two schools are ao closely
tied for the high honors and the fact
that they are evenly matched creates
intense Interest In the scheduled con
test, and It Is expected that tbe gym
nasrlum will be filled to capacity.
Ihe Metlrard team Is to be accom
panied by a huge crowd of rooters.
The special train, which waa plan
ned, could not be obtained, but seA
eral busses have been chartered and
a big auto caravan left tbat city thla
afternoon. A section of the seats In
the gymnasium has been reserved for
the Medford delegation, and will be
kept closed until 7:30 but after that
Ume any -remaining seats in the re
served section will be thrown open.
In order to obtain good seats fan
are advised to reach the gymnasium
early. The doors will be thrown open
at 7 o'clock, and the preliminary
game will start at 7:30.
The preliminary name will he nlav.
ed between the Roseburg and Med-
toru gins. These two teams are even
ly matched and tbe contest ahouM ha
close and exciting. Iu recent games
wltb the Ashland girls, the Koaehuo
and Medford teams wore each defeat
ed by about the same mum ,.. i.
that they are about equal.
The boys game which follows ahould
be a real thriller. The "don.." u
slightly In favor of Rosoburg. The
local boys were defeated on Med
ford's home floor by only one-point
-Medford defeated Aahlanri iwt-
close scores, and was beaten by Ash
land once. Roseburg defentml A.h.
land twice by wide maririn. wh.
ford, however. Is coming to Roseburg
to play their best game of the sea
son, and there Is no question but that
tonlght'a meet will be a fight to the
finish.
Both teams have hmn ii.i..
hard and have left nothing undone
Jo prepare for the contest Medford
has boon studying Rosoburg'a tac
tics since the Medford match, and
has bad players present at every
game the local boys bave played. The
local boys bave been training to add
"p'-ed to their offensive, and are in
perfect physical trim to go the whole
time at top speed.
