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

Substitutes: - Medford: Thorn

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.

Eritrea and 50 mi'en northwest
of Asmara, the Erltrean capi
tal. Seven Italian Ships Sunk
Across the Mediterranean, re-
oorts from Split. 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.

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.
