The fourth day of continuous fighting between rival Chinese armies near Shanghai was completed to night with no evidences that, early termination of the battle could expected. The bnttle started Saturday with opening of an offensive ,by the Click iang-Shanghai forces against the besieging Kiangsu province armies. At 9:30 o'clock tonight the muffled roar from tho war front some score of miles distant told Shanghai that the entrenched fighters still found strength to continue their conflict. The fighting tonight reached hand to hand bayonet encounters when a further fierce Kiangsu counter attack was luunched near Hwangtu, on the line of the Shanghai-Nanking railway. Ma chine gun fire, however, finally forced the rejreat with heavy los ses of Kiangsu men. ' When they retreated. Cheklane leaders asserted, that they left 400 dead on the field. Cheklang leaders also claimed that their soldiers had captured and were holding an advantag eous salient in the Hwangtu area. Field headquarters of the Che klang armies at Nansiang were removed elsewhere late today af ter several Kiangsu airplanes had dropped bombs Into tho town. Further Indefinite reports were received tonight that a combina tion attack by the armies of Kiangsu, Ftiklen and Anhwel provinces against R.000 Cheklang roldiers left to defend Sungklnng. 2S miles to the southward of Shanghai, was impending. The attack, it was said, was ex pected to develop along the line of the Shanhal-Hangchow railway, which runs through Sungkiang. Commanders f'om the three prov inces were said to be assembling a powerful military machine with the Id- a of pressing through and attacking this city from the South. WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.

These figures are based on tho first-line troops of the Giants be fore several major casualties had occurred In the closing stages of their campaign but they are con clusive. They show that tho Kelly- Frlsch -Jack son -Groh com hi na tion of the National League champions has combined fielding average of ,!727.'i, as coinpured with .mill 2! for the Judge-Harris -Pcskiiipaiigh-Hleucgo quartet.

R. ! Ml DIES TODAY i The Ttoseburg high school foot ball team will get Its first real test on next Friday afternoon when it meets the Marshfield high school eleven In a game on the local field. The ltoseburg players are working hard to get in shapo for the contest, and it Is evident that the local school will be repre sented by a scrappy and well- trained team. Coach Doilbet gave the squad a stiff workout last night. Followlns a short drill In fundamental work. they bad a 'brisk scrimmage. In which the men chosen for the first team exhibited a strength and ability which was quite pleasing. Although the team Is still far front being what It should be, the out look is good, the coach says. Captain "Husty" Irwin la sure of a place at fullback. Irwin is heavy and fairly fast, and Is showing up well In the line plunges. Orvlllo Agee a member of last ) ear's team has a place at halfback and Is do ing good work. Glade Druton, Maynard Hell and Odine Math, ews are working for places at half back, and all are showing up equally well. Kenneth Clark wii. probably ba placed at quarterback, but he la being pressed hard for the placu by Leslie Haggerty. Bolh quarters are showing good ability In direc ting the plays and planning their drives. Lynn Peckley and Ray Jost will start at ends, and Vern Taylor, an experienced letterman, will hold down the center position. Pert Lawrence and Harry Ilelliwell are doing good work at guard, and Bernard Young and Clifford Hess are also showing uu well for this position. Ernest Forrester, Dondld Fer guson and Lawrence Sharp, hav ing been working out at tackle, und Kenneth Chllson, a member ot last year's team, has returned to school as well so that there aro four men to select from. With the many candidates for line positions the team Is certain, of a good strong lino, with plenty of substitutes in hard games. The greatest worry at present Is a punter. Coach Iloubet has., been giving Ihe men considerable prai tlce In booting the ball in an ef fort to bring out a good kicker, but up to the present time no man who ran punt consistently has been found. A good deal of time will be spent In punting practlcu until this problem is solved. . The school hopes to start Kit football season off In a successful manner. An effort will be riiado to Induce the merchants to closo their places of business on Friday afternoon for two hours while the. game is In progress In order that the crowd for the first game may bo as large as possible Tho stu dents this year are planning on sidling season tickets Instead of single admissions only ns was done last year. Four games are to be played at home this year, and tickets good for all of these games will be Issued for 11.50. The school will probably hold a rally on th" street prior to the game. Arrange ments are being made to have tlu band present to provide music be fore the game and between halves. This will be tho first time that Marshfield has played In Roseburg and It is desired to give them a 1 real welcome. Many Marshfield fans will be present and there will I be a crowd of rooters from tho vlsltiiie? school. (Associated Press Leased Wire.) SALT LAKE CITY, I'lali. Sept. 30. John A.
