The student body also adopted a constitution. HIGH SCHOOL WINS AT BASKET BALL The basket ball season in Southern Oregon opened Fniday night when the Jacksonville High School girls played the Ashland preparatory school girls. The score being 15 to 3, in favor of the Jacksonville beauties. None of the high school girls had ever played a game of basket ball before the opening of school, but the way they handled the Ashland girls points to a team that will soon be able to beat any team in this part of the state. Flossie Dun ford at forward plays a very fine game, she threw three baskets and five out of seven fouls, Vincent an old Ashland player and manager of athletics for the Ashland school did no better, he getting only five out of seven. Keep your eye on Flossie. Fleta Ulrich also played a fine game at guard she is not afraid of getting hurt and wades into the game like Bridget goes after the cat. Between her and Francis Kenney the visiting team was prevented from getting a single field basket. Francis threw one very pretty basket just to show us she knew how. Mary Hester had a close guard but in spite of that she threw one basket the first half. Maude Newbury took her place the second half, the change being made to give as many players as possible prac tice, Maud played ball all the time but so did her guard. Della Reeve at cen ter proved to be always the handy girl and while she threw r.o baskets she helped on the ones the others threw ur giro have P,enty of sand and will show Southern Oregon some new stunts in basket ball before the season is over. .
