Is declared by Drs. Sether and Stewart, local physicians for the Southern Pacific Company, to be ex ceedingly fortunate in now being in possession of his right foot. Park, who is a local brakeman, was switeh- i ins a car on a sidetrack at Irving late I yesterday afternoon, when one of the ; wheels ran upon his foot.

News that Fireman Bi'.l Rush was married recently in Montague sends a tingle of anticipatory joy running up and down the backs of local rail roaders.

The Ashland high school basket ball team showed themselves to be able to play real big league basket ball on any kind of floor, big or II ti tle, in the first two games of the series with Medford. Friday. Friday evening, before a crowd which must have approached fifteen hundred of the most rabid kind of rooters, equipped with every noise making device from carefully trained vocal chords to weird and wonderful noise-making affairs, the Ashland boys demonstrated the superiority of their defense and offense over the Medford team and won by the score of 7 to 6 in the most heart-breaking, blood-thrilling and generally exciting game of basketball which has been seen In this neck of the woods for years. The game was wonderfully fast, was clean and in fact the best basketball which has ever been put up In southern Oregon. The Medford fans were confident of victory and, it is said, backed their faith with real hard cash, something heretofore unknown when Ashland and Medford met. The big floor was supposed to be tne "Jinx" which would dofeat Ashland, but the wear ers of the red and white proved themselves at home on the big floor and displayed a defense system mod elled along the same lines as Med ford's but which went them one bet ter for effectiveness. Both teams and Ashland especially missed sev eral easy baskets. The Medfordltes p'ayed fast, brilliant ball, passing with dazzling speed, until they got down toward their own goal, when the Ashland defense smeared their fancy work. Grisez secured Ash land's two field baskets, Fraley threw three fouls out of nine. Thomas threw Medford's only field goal and made four out of eight foul shots. Thomas converted a foul for the first point soon after p'ay com menced, Fraley soon tleing the score by converting a free throw. After several minutes of sensational work which had the crowd on its feet every second, Grisez broke away with a long dribble and scored. Medford made another point on a foul and Fraley converted two more fouls, making the score 5 to 2 at the end of the first half. The Medford bunch came back hard in the second half, but the smashing defense of Delsman and Plymate broke up every play. Final ly Thomas scored a shot from the middle of the floor and soon after a shift was made In the Medford line up. Fish going in for Tourney. Fish must have had instructions to score at any cost and played a running guard game, with the inevitable re sult that Grisez got loose and tossed an easv basket unguarded. Thomas converted two fouls The last five j minutes were scoreless. Just as the j mm nnnnnf)ai1 tha an1 rf ttlD cranio ' bull a nil v ii n.-t-u mi iik, vi p,...... Delsman was fouled, giving Medford j a free throw and a chance to tie. j While the fifteen hundred rooters j maintained a breathless silence I Thomas squared off for the foul shot, but the tension was too great and the shot fell short by two feet, giving Ash'and the hardest-fought game of j the season. Foxy Coach Klum sought to sur j prise the Ashlanders by playing Wil-1 liamson at center against Harris, but i Harris, who has been receiving some mighty good training trying to hold Hub Poor down in practice for the past two weeks, played rings around Medford's phenom and did not allow him a respectable shot. Cooper, a former O. A. C. star, is refereoing the contests and gave ex cellent satisfaction. Girls' Game Friday. The little Ashland girls' team looked like pigmies beside the Med ford, girls, but played a fast passing and dribbling game which had their heavier opponents guessing at every stage of the game. Superior foul throwing ability won for Medford a score of 5 to 4. Ashland led at the end of the first half 3-0. Medford came back with a field goal and three fouls In the second period, while! Ashland scored one point. The game was faster than the majority of girls' games. The dribbling of Chappell of Ashland was the stellar feature. The Ashland passing was far ahead of that of the Medfordltes, but the heav ier guards of the neighboring city were able to hold Ashland's diminu tive forwards scoreless. The lineups were as follows: Medford Ashland Torney G Plyma'e Young G Delsman Williamson ....C Harris Brandon F Fraley Thomas F Grisez Field goals: Medford 1, Thomas. Ashland 2, Grisez. Fouls converted: Medford 4, Thomas; Ashland 3, Fraley. Fouls missed: Medford 4, Thom as; Ashland 6, Fraley. i It TUESDAY, MARCH 7 in ft- O.' ' jTj sv r . .. .
