PAGE 4 THE ROGUE NEWS MOV DAT, MARCH 20, 1944 1944 Hoop From the opening Weed en counter to Use final tourney clash, Ashland Hi's hoop season pyramided from a mediocre start to a brilliant climax. With the start of the season, the Grizzlies first ran into a tough Weed team that Just could n't miss, and the Red and White dropped two close ones in the upset. In continuing their North ern California trip, Ashland de feated Yreka twice, 44-20, 60-24. Next Coach Simpson's boys ven tured to the coast only to be outclassed by North Bend and Marshfield, 31-25 and 20-19, re spectively. Although losing to these two preps, they managed to oome through with a win over Myrtle Point, 37-32. Then for the annual Jamboree and the Grizzlies' first conference till. Ashland drove the Grants Pass Cavemen back Into their cave, 37-17, in a hot evening for the locals. The Red and White went ahead later in the season to win all four frays of the sched uled four-game series, 30-27, 36- 21 and 47-24. After a week of strenuous prac tice, the Lithians were convoyed over the Green Springs to meet last year's state champs, Klam ath Falls, for a two-game series. The flist night the Pelicans out played AH 3 to the tune of 34-29, and the second 29-25. The two games at Ashland showed the K men not so successful in captur ing the Grizzly "gizard," as so stated in the Klamath Krater. However, they gave the Ashland aggregation a good battle that The What-Not 10c Store Bushnell Studio Fine Portraits 'Camera Kodak Finishing The Bob Kit Cafe Courteous and Efficient Self -Service Home Made Pies MERRILL'S Soda Fountain SCHOOL SUPPLIES CANDY On the Boulevard See our Hairbow Section Many new Styles J.

MARKET Just Across the Street School Supplies Ice Cream Candy Fresh Vegetables Hi-lights was enjoyed by all, with scores of 36-22 and 23-21. Next on the list was Medford here to open their four-tilt tus sle against a determined Grizzly squad, but the determination wasn't enough to fill the gap of a 35-33 margin due to Bob WcJs enburger's last-second heave from the mid-stripe. This was the last time that Medford reached the win column against their tradi tional rivals, as the Ashland boys made it three straight, 39-35, 43-20 and 39-28. As the localltes took off over mountainous landscapes to Rose burgh, they met a tough bunch of hoopsters that gave them bad time. Our lads again hit the canvas in the. first of the four sessions. Ashland then proceeded to whip the Indians three in a row, 30-22. 43-30 and 41-39. From . there on the Grizzlies finished things up in a blaze of glory, sweeping the District 2 tourney, and going to win the state title at Salem. This sums up an excellent sea son for the Ashland High Griz zlies, the "casaba kings" of the state of Oregon. ASHLAND BOYS SWAMP Continued from page 1 a favored Washington High of Portland who had just squeezed past Pendleton. The local boys looked a little better than the day before but they still lacked the old drive. Washington lead until the 3rd quarter, when the Grizzlies finally began to snap out of it. It was Bartelt and Landing who really paid off in the final stanza by squelching a Washington rally that nearly gave the game to the Portlandera. Rob erson got a tinvly feild goal and the game ended 33-30. Riggs, af ter playing a smashing game that had the Washington defenses on the run, left via the foul route early in the fourth quarter. After the game the cups were presented and the An-State team announced. Those chosen for the honor were Barney Riggs and Jim Bartelt, Ashland, Curt Luckey and Wade Cowan, Springfield, and Jerry Krafve, Washington. J. P.

Though 1944 seemed to be a bad year for Sainin-lon, he was still one of the best men on the team. Jay is the modest man who represented the Grizzlies on the honorable mention division of All Conference teams, thus making it possible to have at least one of the locals on each all-star team. In his sophomore yeur, be led the conference in scoring and was chosen for the second team in All Conference. With still one year to go, he should be one of the top men in the district. Hi-Y boasts Samuelson as its vi;e-president. After two years with the B squad, Del Landing suddenly blos somed forth into a No. 1 star. Though his previous basketball life is limited, everyone agrees that no other player on the Griz zly team can be credited with pulling the chestnut out of the fire as often as Del. This happen ed quite regularly in the confer ence games and the fracas with ! St. Helens at the -tale tourney was made a victory when he sank the winning basket. Landing did okay in football likewise and he's doing fine right now with Emily Norris.
