Encouraging Signs
WB wore thankful on general
principles on Thanksgiving day
thankful for borne and family,
flio hospitable town we live In, for
this America, "the land of the
lice," for peace. But nows from
WaBlilngton last week has given us
concroto reasons for optimism
that wo did not liuvo on Thanks
giving tlny,; j ,
;TUe first oneounigliiB sign Is
that Prosldont1 ItooHovolt. In bis
lOBsago to 'cohgrbss1 nlnde 'no' at
tack on business1 aiid uttered no
.snt'or. Anothor pncpurnglng sign
Is found lit the news that tho nt
onipt to rldiuiflo the Dies commll
,tee off ' the stago bad been aban
doned by the president. This Is
jVlio ' comiuittoo .InveHtigatlng sub
versive' activities ,in tliiB country,
and It Is unuouueod 'that at lust
'tho department of jtistlco is lo co
operate in further efforts jo cx
poso those guilty of this Bhabby
Iind traitorous business.
Tho third encouraging sign Is
ovldonco that officialdom Is roul-
l.lng Hint the polite weakness ot
Mr. Mllriuetoast Is not the way lo
deal with bluffing dictator.'!. So
far wo have waited in vain for
. signs of firmuosB In dealing with
.the Mexican uol.ure of hundreds
Of millions of dollars worth of
American owned oil properties, but
that limy come, and wo must ad
mit that tho problem is compli
cated. The appointment of Kullx Frank
furter of the JJurvard law school
to the supremo court Is encour
aging and will do something to off
set tho national humiliation felt at
the appointment of Hugo Black.
Friiukturlcr Is a liberal, hut im
lionest anil patriotic liberal, and
It Is doubled thai I ho president
could bavo found a Hlronger man
for Ibo supremo court.
Anil lastly, we find nnollier

RAMBL1NGS
by
Paul Jenkins
UNI, lOSS one's attention Is call
ed particularly to It, bo may
see an object many limes without
buvlng any well
defined idea as
to just what It
looks ilko. I dis
covered this Sun
day In llie case
of the north jet
ty at the mouth
of tho Unipqua
river. I li a v o
neon It many
times indeed, but
found It impos
sible to cstiuiute
iust how badly
It bus been damaged by tho storms
which recently slruck that section,
ulong with others, ot tho Oregon
coast.
Dut It must liuvo been hit pretty
hard. All tho superstructure carry
ing the truckage for tho dump cars
Is washed out, except for a sec
tion ut the extreme seaward tip,
and the long line of rock fill form
ing the jelly Itself appears to have
been battered down until only a
narrow margin shows above tho
surf. A considerable sea was run
ning while I wus watching; por
baps there .was inoro rock there
than I thought.
A huge bell, buoy had been torn
loose from its moorings in tho riv
er channel, uud was beached he
low the lighlbouso, near the nutur
al mouth or the river. It was a tre
mendous affair ot metal, lis base
partially buried in the sand, lean
ing at a crazy angle and seeming
furlorn and sadly out of place in
its slrunge new Belting.
!'or hundreds of yards tbe beach
south or the river mouth (and 1
don't know for bow much farther)
was lltlered with a tangled confu
sion of lugs, sections of trackage
from the wrecked jetty, and debris
or all kinds. To the leniliiinu con
tingent of our party, wearing high
heeled shoes, criiKSing this bar
rier became a real problem.
The sliirm was followed by
sunny skies. The weallior was
warm, even springlike. The rho
dodendrons are building, tho buds
already topped with a point of
crimson petal. i wasn't a wintry
sceno at all.
"That fellow." remarked a mem
ber of a ehinku-cheek group, ludi
cullng un opponent, 'sure Is lucky.
I very strongly suspect him of
playing with loaded marbles."
I saw my Hrst bluebird of the
new year near the highway at Whit-hosier
n few days ago. lie looked
like a lillle patch of summer sky
that had fallen to the ground.
If be migrated this winter, be
must have got buck before be
slarled, which would be a neat
trick,

Thoro con be no noble living

set toward all that is just and

Ills face like u flint. It can never
be possihlo to uttuin unto high
and noblo life by merely cherish
ing a certulu easy-going and
good-natured wish in that direc

be un achievement, an achieve

calls for commitment. As we
begin upon the duties and the

B. 12 TO 9
Local Quintet Comes From
Behind in Ragged Game
to Wrest Victory.
Coach Hod Turner's Papoose
basketball team, resplendent in
blue and gold warm-ups, managed
to '"fire" themselves un enough in
the final two quarters of their
game played Saturday on the
home court against the Oakland
high school B team to come from
behind and win a low-scoring con
test, 12 to 19, to turn In their sec
ond straight victory of the season.
It was a drab and ragged game
from atart to finish, with the Pa
poose cagers turning in a game
far below the standard Bet in their
opening contest. The lowly score
of 19 points for the local hoopsters
was a far cry from the high scor
ing quintet which hepresented the
Blue and Gold a year ago, but in
ail fairness to Coach Turner's cur
rent team, the score would have
been a lot higher bod his young
sters been able to even come close
to the hoop In the first two per
iods. Both Teams' Aim Poorly
For that matter neither team
could dent the bemp in that wild
first half which saw both pepper
ing tbe backboard with wild shotB
without once connecting. Tbe first
quarter ended 0-0, and the half
time oouht on tbe tally board look
ed more like a baseball score than
one for basketball, the count
standing 4 .to 3 iu Oakland's favor.
Roseburg took over the lead, 12-9,
at the three-quarter mark and ns-
sumed complete command In the
final quarter to win going away.
Hughes, center for the Papooses,
Won individual scoring honors
with 9 points. He scored all of
the winner's points made in the
first half. Cherry, Oakland for
ward, was runner-up with 7 count
ers. Ness was second-high for the
locals with 4 points.
It took Todd of Oakland just
a few minutes after tbe oponlng
of the second quarter to bring to
an end the scoring drought which
was plaguing both teams. Hughes
hit a free throw shortly nfter for
iioscDurg s flint point. It was hear
ing tho end of the period that
Hughes came through again to
sink the first field goal for his
team.
Tide Turns in 2nd Half
The Papooses settled down!
somewhat' In the final cantos nft
er doing everything In tho book;
wrong the first half. Taking more
time with their passes and setting
up their plaj'B, the youngsters be
gan to broak through the tough
Oakland mau-lo-man defense to
score, with Ness und Hughes do
ing most, ot the work. Oakland
umo hack to tie tho score with!
a little over throe minutes to go
in the period but Ness sneaked
through to hole out a 15-footer to
give Itoseburg tbe lead from which
thev were never headed.
Hughes. Ness and Slattory turn
ed in what good ball was played by
the winners during the evening.
Anderson, the lad who sparked
the Papooses to victory In their
last game, railed to show any of
the power and drive displays in
the game against Sutherlin. Cher
ry Todd and Davison wcro out

County Basketball Games
ELKTON VS. GARDINER
GARDINER, Jan. 0. The ElUlon
high school teams stepped into the
lead in the coast section ot Uie
Douglns county "B" league Friday
by virtue of a double victory over
the Gardiner high teams iu the
opening games of the schedule.
The Elkton girls defeated tlie
Gardiner volleyball team rather
handily by a score of 31-17. ( The
Gardiner girls .surprised their fol
lowers by actually outplaying tiie
Elktou girls for the first five
minutes of the game, leading at
that time S-7. The veteran players
of Elkton however pulled them
selves together and took command
in every department of the game.
The outcome of the basketball
game wus still in doubt at the end
of the regular playing time when
both teams wore deadlocked in u
25 tie. Iu the overtime period
Elkton gained possession of the
ball and after nearly a minute of
play lost It to Gurdincr. (iurdiner
immediately rushed down the floor
und missed several shots. Elkton
did likewise. As the crowd grew
hysterical, tbe screams drowning
the sound of the referee's whistle,
Kerrell of Elkton came out of a
melee, dribbled the length of the
floor Into a corner, and with a
Gardiner man checking him very
closely, made a circus shot ending
the ball game. The game was very
fast and very rough. Both teams
were decidedly off in converting
fouls, each making only three out
of eleven attempts.
