The Roseburg high school In dians had two down and one to go today as they made ready to meet the Ashland Orizzlies here Tuesday night in the third con ference basketball game of the season. The Indians Saturday night trounced Grants Pass 28 to 19 to follow up their 52-to-35 win Friday night over Medford. The game Tuesday night against Ash land will complete the first lap in the southern Oregon district's round robin. A victory by the In dians would give Roseburg undis puted first place in district stand ings.

The first detailed disclosure that the Germans had started building a defensive line of for tifications along the English channel was brought to the Unit ed States by William McGaffin, member of the Associated Press staff in London, who returned recently. ed the game into the win column. Game Nicely Played Doth teams played a beautiful defensive game, particularly dur ing the first half, as evidenced by the half-time low score of 15 to 7 in Roseburg's favor. Neither team scored until midway In the first period and everv point dur ing the entire first half was hard- earned. The defensive work of both teams was eleverlv executed with Finlay and Wiard turning In a fine record of floor work for the Indians, while Gray, Davis and Mover were a stone wall for the Cavemen. In the third period the Indians lime back to speed up the at- ;ick, taking advantage of the heieht of Denton. British Libyan forces still were hauling guns from the Bardia area to surround Tobruk, 70 miles away, and putting them in to action against outlying Italian defense points. The important fascist outpost at Giarbub oasis, 150 miles south of Bardia, was said to have been cut off by the British.

As of today, Washington and Oregon Stale the latter defend ing champion are tied for leader ship of the division with perfect records. Washington, however, plays only two Kings-X games with Montana this week; while Oregon Stale faces its Inter-mural enemy, the University of Oregon, in 11 game that can't be anything hut a Dnnnvbrook, no matter who wins. Should O.S.C. lose Wash ington will have the leadership all to Itself next Sunday; and even If the Beavers win, Wash ington's record will still bo per fect In so far as the division Is concerned. The only other game on the week's program pits Washington State, with two wins and two losses on its record, against Idaho at Pullman. Washington made it two in a row over Idaho Saturday night, 39 to 37. Idaho led most of the first half, dropped back in the second hal(, came up strong at the finish to tie the score in the last three seconds of play only to lose in the five minute over time as Washington, got three points to one for the Vandals.

While McAllister obtained 22 of the 38 house republican votes, lie got only five ol the 22 demo cratic ballots. After the 33-to-27 vote for Far fell was announced at the cau cus. McAllister was given an ova tion by the membership when he moved to make the vote unani lious for Farrell. McAllister then appealed to all members to unite behind Farrell so that the session might be "harmonious." He al so asked the members to forget the bitterness engendered by the speakership batttle. At the request of President elect Dean Walker of the senate, the senators agreed to reduci the number of standing committee;; from 37 to 3(1, and cut the mem bership ol the larger commutes. Members of both houses were optimistic that the session would end within 50 days. It ap peared likely the cession would he considerably shorter than the 1939 record session of 6(1 days, since all administration hills lire prepared and there aren't many controversial Issues.

RAF Blows Detailed With bombs dropping from only a few hundred feet and ma chine-guns firing "almost at ground level," the air ministry described heavy damage at Porto Marghera, Including the destruc tion of two larg buildings. 'Antl-nirrr.'ift defenses first forces In Albania today as the ninth bomb or torpedo hit on British warships in four days was accredited officially to the new Germn-Italian offensive in the Mediterranean. Italian authorities Insisted that the situation behind the lines in Albania was satisfactory and an 'official announcement said that Gen. Ubaldo Soddu, who had been in command since Nov. 10, "has been relieved because of his health." Today's high command com munique said an Italian plane had torpedoed a '"big enemy war ship In the western Mediterran ean. Thus, since Friday, nine British ships have been listed as bombed or torpedoed by the Ital ian naval forces and combined German-Italian air units. At least one of them, a cruiser, was declared to have been left in sinking condition. The high command, mean while, identified one of the Bri tish ships said to have been struck by a torpedo last Friday In the Strait of Sicily as a bat tleship of the Malaya (31,100 ton) class. The daily war bulletin said British planes bombed Turin, Venice and Catania last night, killing one person at Venice and injuring several others. Some damage" was said to have been caused. Two British planes were re ported shot down over Catania and Venice. Six men of one crew were said to have been tak en prisoner. solely upon motor transportation But at the same time, he rec ommended that motor carriers be required to pay taxes to support general government, either by levying new taxes or by divert ing part of their present taxes to the general fund. The taxes they now pay are used for building and maintaining roads. The gov ernor also recommended stricter regulation of log-hauling. Other Recommendations Appointment of an administra tor for the workmen s compensa tion law is designed to bring about more efficient manage ment, he said. The governor also approved the proposal to abolish jury trials in appeals from awards by the industrial acci dent commission. The school tax equalization pro posal, defeated last session, would equalize school taxes within counties. The net effect would be that richer districts would help support tne poorer districts. Governor Sprague said the building program for state insti tutions, to cost $300,000 a year for six years, would relieve over crowding, particularly at the state hospital. He also asked that Institution employes be given an eight-hour working day. The governor asked the legisla tors to try out the experience rat ing system under the unemploy ment compensation law. This pro posal, opposed by labor groups, provides that employers who have dismissed few employes shall pay smaller payroll taxes, while higher taxes would be as sessed against employers who dis missed many employes. Other recommendations in clude: Enact a constitutional amend ment to restore voting rights to penitentiary inmates who have served their sentences, give the governor authority to organize a state guard to replace the na tional guard which now is in fed eral service, give the game com mission full power to fix seasons and bag limits, permit people's utility districts to sell their bonds to the federal government by ne gotiation, adopt a pension system for employes of the state, coun ties, cities and districts. Planning Need Cited Governor Sprague criticized the federal government for its "con tinued invasion of the powers of the state," but he said the states may justify their existence if they "do a superior job of legislation and administration." He warned that Oregon must First Tilt on Aid Plan Taken by Administration (Continued from pase 1) tion was very favorable." . . Willkie said last night thaP-he was for the administration's lend lease proposal "with modifica tions." In a statement issued in New York he also announced that he would go to England soon to make a personal study of needs and conditions there. At the state department today, Secretary Hull described the 1940 republican presidential candidate as an outstanding iigure ana leader of public thought in this country and as such entitled to visit the British isles as a private citizen. Landon Comments Willkle's statement brought a comment from Alf M. Landon in Topeka, Kans., that "if Mr. Will kie had revealed that to be nis position before the republican na tional convention he would not have been nominated. Willkie and President Roose velt hold essentially the same po sition: Landon asserted, adding, that is, we must get into the war if necessary to help England win." Chairman George (D., Ga.) of the senate foreign relations com mittee, who said he "unqualified ly" approved the measure's ob jectives, predicted Mr. Roosevelt would favor an amendment speci fying that foreign beneficiaries provide "reasonable security" in the form of goods needed by the United States such as tin and rubber. Senator Wheeler (D., Mont.), who is organizing an opposition bloc in the senate, said during a radio forum last night that ap proval of the bill "means war open and complete warfare." Senator Lee (D., Okla.), taking the other side, asserted: America has only one chance to escape total war and that chance is England. England Is the only barrier between Ameri ca and a baptism of blood." Cal., policeman, was sentenced to four years. Their conviction was upheld by the ninth federal dr. cult court. To Review Labor Case Also today, the supreme court agreed to review a labor board contention that it could compel a company to hire men and giva them back pay if the board be lieved employment had been de. nied because of union member, ship and activity. The federal circuit court at New York held that the men in. volved In the labor board case had not been employed ai:? hence the board's order was inval'd. The controversy grew out of a strike at a Blsbee, Ariz,, copper mine owned by the Phelps-Dodgo corporation of New Yorli.
