SPRING SPORT GOLF "Fore," "Hole in One," "I broke 100 today." No, this isn't an interview with the head warden in the state hospital; in fact, these phrases can be heard almost any day at the Oak Knoll Country Club . . . As you may have guessed, these terms belong to the game of golf. Golf is a great sport you start at 8 o'clock in the morn ing and chase litle white balls up and down, through the most apalling assortment of trees, shrubs, and blackberry bushes. Of course there are wide, green fairways, but the game is seldom played on these as there are sand traps and water haz ards with which to keep your self busy. In case you are still interested in the game of golf, there are lessons to be had at a nominal sum at the local country club. MARTEL PETERS UNION SERVICE . STATION 237 East Main Street Ashland, Oregon BearCave The AHS Grizzlies finished their 1954 season with a 10 won and 12 lost record. Al though the Bears failed to hit the "500" mark they did have a good season. The Ashland Crew did very good in their pre-seascu play by winning 5 game:) and losing only one gume. The Grizzlies defeated the Cougars from Illinois Val ley twice and took singletons trom Myrtle Creek, Del Norte High of Crescent City, and from Willamette High from Eugene. Their only loss came at the hands of the Willamette High squad. Starting their league play tiie Bears got off to a bad start by losing to league favorite Grants Pass twice. The next weekend they traveled to Klamath Falls and lost both of the games there. The following week the Bears, improving fast, lost two hard fought ball games to Medford, with one loss coming on a last second basket. Taking a "breather" between halves of conference play the Grizzlies took on the tough Crater Comets. The two clubs split the four game series, with each club winning on its home court. After the final game at the Crater Comets court a near riot ensued. A much improved Grizzly squad resumed the second half of their conference play by losing two hard fought games to the Cavemen from the "Cli mate City" in the last two min utes of each ball game. The Klamath Falls Pelicans invaded the Grizzly domain the following weekend . and were soundly trounced by the Bears. In their final two games the Grizzlies lost their first game to the Black Tornado from the "Pear City" but then overcame a 13 point deficit to defeat the favored Black "TO MATO" squad from Medford.

Baseball Preview By Walt McCoy Now that basketball season is over, a young mans fancy turns to baseball. This year Head Coach Al Simpson will be greeted by six lettermen: two 3-year letter men; Ted Tenney and Walt Mc Coy; one 2-year letterman; Clarence Baker; and three 1 year lettermen; Jim Sutherlin, Jim Watrus and Phil Sword. Ted Tenney was an outfield er last year but probably will be shifted to the infield. Walt McCoy was the main stay deep in center field, while Clarence Baker was a flash at short stop and did his share of pitching. Phil Sword played back stop for Baker's pitches and was heavy hitter. Holding down the position of short stop and sec ond base, Jim Watrus led the team in hitting. Jim Sutherlin patrolled the left field and was improving his hitting near the end of the season last year. Stuart Baker and Gene Par ent are expected to fill in at first base and pitcher respectiv ely. Others that are expected to turn out are Kenna Gandee. Haroll Castle, Blackie Mitchell and a host of promising fresh men. Coach Simpson will have a difficult time finding someone to fill the spot left at third base by last year's captain. Bill Welch, but from all reports, Dave Dickinson is just the man to fill the bill.
