.Lead at Stake as
S Faces Tilt
With Grants Pass
The RospbWR high school In
dians will travel to Ashland Fri
day for two games of basketball,
to be played Friday and Satur
day nights, as they endeavor to
continue in a tie with the Grants
Pass Cavemen at the top of the
southern Oregon conference
standings. Grants Pass Tuesday
night won from Ashland, 28 to 18.
The Medford Pear Pickers, In
a non-conference game Tuesday,
won from Klamath Falls, 43 to
37.
Roseburg and Grants Pass are
both undefeated, although Rose-
Oairg had two exceedingly close
alls in playing Medford, win
ning each game by only one
point.
In preparation for the trip to
Ashland, Coach Hod Turner has
been working diligently to im
prove his team's ball handling,
and reports marked progress.
The Indians have been some
what ragged-this season on short
passing, particularly on fast, of
fensive breaks in the scoring
zone. Their defensive work has
been well done, and they have
shown ability to work them
selves into scoring position, but
have had some difficulty with
working the ball in toward the
basket and also in shooting. Ex
perience and practice, however,
is expected to smooth out both
of these troubles.
Prospects are that the high
spots of the conference will be
on the dates of January 29 and
60, when Grants Pass plays nt
loseburg, and February 5 and G,
when Roseburg goes to Medford.

DAILY DEVOTIONS
PR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS
The only glory in life Is to
leave the world better for hav
ing been in it. Intoxicating
drinks do not help us do that.
When I was a lad, I signed the
total abstinence pledge, and to
this day I have kept it. Even
more dangerous than ordinary
alcoholic beverages are many
of the cocktails prepared for
social occasions. These contain
essential oils such as oil of In
dian hemp which changes
Ideas of time and space, oil
of absinthe, which induces con
vulsive attacks similar to those
of epilepsy, nutmeg and other
spices act in the same way.
The cocktail is taken on an
empty stomach. The absence
of food and the Irritation set
up by the oils both make for
rapidity of absorption. One
reason for the ice being used
is probably to mask the too
pronounced flavors. The alco
hol in the cocktail owing to
its strength and the conditions
under which it is taken, in
duces a feeling of elation and
excitement. Natural modesty,
shyness, and self centered con
trol becomes self evident and
prudence and restraint are
lacking. How true are the
words of the scriptures, "Wine
is a mocker, strong drink is
raging, and whosoever is de
ceived thereby is not wise.
Amen.

dertaker's parlor as well as a
residence.
The blaze started after Mrs.
Zelda Kramer had left for work.
Dorothy Kramer, II, smelled
smoke and found the lower rooms
in flames. She escaped with her
brother, Basil, 10, and a sister,
Marjorie, 12.
risks, while the companies get the
good risks.

recommended passage of a hill by
Rep. John Hall to increase

S2700, lieutenants from S2-HK) to

Better Enforcement Asked
The Klamath county house and
senate delegations introduced a
bill today to give police, district,
justice and circuit courts exclu
sive jurisdiction in cases of motor
vehicle law violation, regardless
of tile age oi the offenders. This,
the delegation said, would provide
lor more strict enforcement of
motor vehicle laws in cases of
juvenile violations. Juvenile
courts would not be able to dis
charge the youthful offenders.
The senate passed and sent to
the house bills to nermit men
over IS years of age In military

and legal documents, to guarantee
that net fishermen In military
service shall retain their fishing

nesday afternoon or evening on

to operate on state highways, the
house roads and highways com
mittee said today,
The highway commission

June to allow bigger trucks,
and the bill would make this or
der permanent. It would permit
the increase of maximum truck
length and weight from 50 leet
and 51,000 pounds to HO feet and
ISK.000 pounds.
The Association of Oregon
Counties will fight the bill, as
will the railroads. A similar bill
was defeated last session.
The Oregon State guard, whiih
would have gone out of existence
today, got a new lease on life
yesterday when Governor Snell
signed a bill to keep the guard
in service until he proclaims it
is no longer needed.
Pension Bills Offered
Seven old age pension bills,
sponsored by the Fraternal Or
der of Eagles, were introduced
today by Rep. Perry, St. Helens
democrat.
The bills would provide S 10
monthly pensions, reduce the
number of case workers, elim
inate most case investigations,
give the legislature access to case
records, and eliminate the gov
ernor's appointments to county
public welfare commissions,
turning the commissions' func
tions over to county courts.
Graduates of professional
schools who now are in the al in
ed forces would be given licenses
to practice their professions with
out examinations at the end of
the war, a bill introduced by
Senators Wallace and Lynch,
both of Portland, provides.

who have been in service for at
least six months.
The house adopted a resolu
tion hy Re). Wells of Portland
to require the painting of the
hands on the house clock so
that members can tell what time
it is.
The clock, almost invisible, has
bronze hands, bronze numerals
and a bronze-colored background.

hands be painted white, said In
his resolution that older mem
bers work so hard that their eye
sight is bad, while younger mem
bers can't see far "various and
sundry reasons."

lution calling for a series of pub
lie hearings in the house cham
