'SIX R6&8URg WEWS-REVW, RS.EBUrS, CrE SOR MOhlbAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1941. R. H. S. Hoopsters Lose to Medf ord High by 30 to 17 ' A bunch of tired Roseburg high school Indians wore nursing their wounds today as they prepared themselves for another south ward Invasion tomorrow night, when they go to Grants Pass. Beaten twice last week by Ash land and Medford, the Indians are . now In n desperate position and must win their future, contests to stay out In front of the district pack. Beaten 36 to 20 at Ashland FrI day, the Indians dropped Satur day's game at Medford 30 to 17 ' after plaving on close terms for three periods. Showing the effects of the hard struggle at Ashland the pre ceding night, the Indians fought hack desnerately at an Inspired Medford team In the first half of Saturday night's game. Denton, Roseburg's towering center, went out of the game In the first quar ter, Wlard shifting to center and Cacv, Schrlmpf and Ness alter- nating in reserve spots. While Wlard performed beautifully In backboard recoveries, the loss of Demon was keenly felt both on offense and defense. Cacy turn--ed in a fine defensive game par ticularly in fast ball-hawking. . Indians Collapse. The Medford team, playing a far stronger game than In anv previous showing, were ahead 15 to 12 at half time and led 20 to 17 In the third quarter. The Indians managed to stay within three points of their rivals during the first three periods, but collansed as the game went into the final stanza and were unable to score during the entire frame, while Medford added 30 points. The two losses leaves the In dians only a half game in the lend, being pressed hard by Ash land, while Medford Is two games out of first place. The Indians will play at Grants Pass Tuesdnv and hope to take revenge on the once beaten Med ford team when the Pear Pickers come to Roseburg Saturdav night. After this weeks' conference schedule, the Indians have only two league gamiw to plav. They will meet Ashland here February 15 and will play their final con ference game at Medford Febru ary 21. In addition to these two games they will play the U. of O. Frosh here February 11 and the O. S. C. Rooks at Corvallis Febru ary 25. The lineup for Saturday's game: : Medford 30 17 Roseburg Gunnett 8 F 5 Wlard Reed 3 F 2 Goodlow Merman 1 C 3 Denton Williams 2 G.., 3 Hughes Fawcett 11 G 2 Finlay Substitutes: - Medford: Thorn dyke 5, Wall, Dixon; Roseburg: Cacy 2, Ness, Schrlmpf. Juniors Also Defeated In a preliminary to the game between the Roseburg and Med ford senior high teams, the jun ior high squads of the two schools met in n contest won by Medford 44 to 13. The Papooses were tired from Friday night's game with Giants Pass here and played the greater part of the game without the services of Ward Cummlngs, stellar guard, who had to be removed early In the first quarter because of a foot Injury. On the large Med ford court the Papooses quickly were exhausted by the running Medford Hiniors who were out in . front 23 to 7 at the half. The Paixmscs have one more game to play, being scheduled to meet Grants Pass here Feb. 14. The game will be a doubleheader with the Grants Pass 8th graders meeting the junior high "peanut" squad. Coach Tod Turner Is greatlv pleased by the new system used this vear hv the lunior high schools of the district in having players remain over night In the towns In which they nlay. Through arrangements made at the beginning of the season play ers of the home team entertain the visiting nlavers In their own homes, furnishing bed and break fast. As a result. Turner reports, n fine snlrit of friendship among the voting athletes has resulted.

Yugoslavia, said seven Italian shins had been sunk In an apparently concerted British-Greek submarine cam nalen aiyalnst fascist military niDplv routes far up In the Adria tic sea. British and Greek submarines were said to be oneratin" as far as 230 miles north of Otranto, forcing Italian ships to take re fuge In Lugoslav ports. RAF Deals Blows British bombers were reported active apainst both ends of the Rome-Berlin axis, scoring a "suc cessful attack" on an lmoortant oower sunnly dam in Sardinia and bombing targets in nazi-oc- cunied northwest France short ly before dawn today. Five British mine-sweeping trawlers were reoorted to have driven off three German Dornler raiders after a fierce 15-mlnute battle In daylight, somewhere off the southeast English coast. After an overnight lull, with fog shrouding the English chan nel, nazi bombers attacked Lon don and dropped their cargowf-tff death over central Scotland and the northeast English coast. A single German plane streak ed across the channel through a snowstorm this morning and dropped four bombs on the out skirts of London, killini? a child and wrecking several homes. On the southeast coast, anoth er nazl raider hit a church and damaged several buildings. Vill agers fenred a woman and a boy were killed. Berlin reported a German dive- homhnr snk a 3.000-ton ship off the English cast coast this morn ing, scoring several h'ts which tore the vessel apart. It also re oorted yesterday that German bombers were operating across the Mediterranean. Nazi planes were said to have bombed Brit ish shipping and bases alon? the Egyptian and eastern Libyan coast on Saturday, sinking three merchant ships and damaping three others. The Italian high command said the Germans sank one vessel on Friday. A Greek spokesman renorted last night Greek capture of dom inating positions on a lOmile mountain range north of Klisura after desperate fightinp. The Greeks were said to have captured 270 prisoners and "manv automatic arms, mortars and all kinds of material." France's troubled political des tiny took a new t:'rn as French naval minister, Darlan, arrived In Paris presumbaly to confer with ousted ex-vice Premier Pierre Laval regarding collabora tion with Germany. A speedy showdown in French German relations was reported Imminent as leaders of a newly formed pro-nazi "people's com mittee" In Paris were said to have rejected overtures of the Vichv government. tlon by Multnomah county demo cratic legislators, also would pro vide that families of such youths could not be evicted for failure to pay rent, that articles they buy on Installments could not be repos sessed, and that they would not be subject to fines or penalties for failure to pay taxes. Lieut. Col. Elmer V. Wooton, state director of selective service, said that "after a careful study. we have learned that federal law covers the situation adequately." State employment service offi cials said, however, that legisla tion is needed to prevent the penalties for failure to pay tuxes, and to compel public agencies to rehire their employes who enter military service. "With federal legislation and tne efforts of the state employ ment service, I believe youths wno enter military service have full guarantees they will get tneir jods Pack when they come home," the governor said. Benefit Plan Offered Reps. Manley J. Wilson (D. Clatsop), A. Hugh Adams (D. Multnomah), and E. C. Allen (D. Multnomah) Introduced a meas ure to establish a 40-hour week for Oregon industries whieh are not now covered by the federal wage-hour law. The state labor commissioner would enforce it. Other bills introduced in the house today would: Provide pen alties for negligent homicide in traffic deaths of one to three years In prison, or 82,000 fine, or both; exempt from taxes the first $1,000 In value of any home of an old age pensioner; and provide that the supreme court shall elect Its chief justice, who now is the senior judge among the two 'or three judges who have the short est term to serve. Sen. Rex Ellis (R.-Umatilla) In troduced his bill to provide for a fourth congressman, to be elected at large. Four other redistricting bills, all In the house, would cre ate a fourth district by carving it out of the first (western Oregon) district. Another bill Introduced in the senate would place occupational diseases under provisions of the workmen's compensation law. Wage-Hour Law Upheld by Supreme Court of U. S.
