Grants Pass 4 Roseburg 2 Ashland 2 Medford 1 The Roseburg high Indians returned home 0 1.000 2 .500 3 .400 4 .250 school Sunday after a most disastrous invasion of the territory of the Ashland Lithians, where they were beaten twice in southern Oregon con ference basketball games. Follow ing Friday night's 3Cto-29 trim ming, the Indians lost a Saturday night thriller, 33-to-31. The con test was fast and rough and close all of the way, while the lead changed hands 15 times during the battle. Roseburg started out with a 10-to-5 lead in the first period, but Ashland brought the score to 18 all at half-time. The third period was nip and tuck and finished all even at 24 24. The Indians gained a slight lead in the closing frame, but lost Cummlngs, James and Ward on personal fouls in the closing minutes of the contest and were nosed out in the last few seconds by a field goal which gave Ash land a two-point victory. New System Clicks Roseburg's two defeats at Ash land puts the Indians "behind the 8 ball" unless they succeed in whipping Grants Pass in the two games to be played on the local court Friday and Saturday nights. In the event the Indians can beat Grants Pass, there still is a chance for league leadership as Ashland, Coach Hod Turner re ports, is very apt to be the dom inating team during the remain der of the season. In a game at Grants Pass the week before Roseburg's visit at Ashland, the Lithians found a scoring com bination, and, although they lost the game with Grants Pass, they uncovered a new arrangement which was fully developed for Dlav against Roseburg. The Ash land team from now on, Coach Turner declares, will be a tough team to beat. Grants Pass will offer plenty of competition this week, as the Cavemen will be uctermineu io hold their league leadership. I he Indians will be required to stop three very good men, including one who formerly wore the Ump qua headdress. Neil Schrimpf, formerly of Roseburg, Is now one of the high scorers of the Grants Pass team, while Johnny Gray and Snuffy Smith are two other dangerous opponents. The names at Ashland Friday and Saturday nights revealed that the Indians had made some pro gress in ball handling, but were silll weak in shooting ability, missing a great many close-in shots. Wimberly was high point man for Roseburg with 9 mark ers, closely pressed by Loomis with 8. Huskies Defeat Oregon Again, Top Conference List By virtue of three thrill packed victories, the University of Wash ington basketball team was in first place in the northern division Pacific Coast conference basket ball race today after dropping their opening game of the season to the Oregon State Beavers at Corvallis. The Huskies moved to the top ol the heap Saturday night on a cne-point, 31-30, victory over the University of Oregon at Eugene that was a nip and tuck proposi tion right up to the last seconds, when Bill Morris, Washington guard, sank a free throw that de cided the game. Washington defeated the Web- foots the night before in another game that was just as uncertain, but took a little better edge, 52 48, in the final score. The Huskies won their second game from Ore gon State 4439 after dropping the first, 39-42, to the defending champions of the northern divis ion. Washington State, through Fri day nifiht's 54-16 defeat of the University of Idaho, claimed sec ond place in the standings, with two wins and one defeat, while Oregon, with three wins and three losses, and Oregon State having won one and lost one, tied for third. Idaho, with three lost, was in the cellar. Friday and Saturday nights. Seattle fans will be given their first taste of conference com petition this year, when Univer sity of Oregon journeys to Seattle to play a repeat of their last week's thrilling schedule on the Husky floor. The same nights Oregon State will go to Pullman to meet the Washington State five.

The govern ment itself, lacking adequate telegraph facilities, commandeered the AP system. In the 12 years since its founding the AP had grown up so that a New York Herald man wrote: "The special corre spondents of the several New York papers aro nearly if not quite as numerous as the agents of the AP." I One of the agents, as AP reporters were then ' called, Lawrence A. Cobrighl, in Washington, summarized an AP man's creed. He said: "My business is lo communicate facts; my instructions' do not allow me to make any comment upon the fads. My dispatches arc sent to papers of all man ner of politics.
