Ohio Program.
The program of the entertainment
feature of the Ohio day gathering at
Mouse hall last Wednesday was as
follows:
As is the custom at Ohloans' gath
erings in Ashland, "Ohio" was sung
to the air of "America," the words
being by Mrs. Elizabeth Vockey, a
native daughter. There were instru
mental selections by Mrs. Van Fossen
and Lloyd Stratton. Miss Floy Can-
bers sang, and Miss Miriam Gregg
gave a reading, her selection being
"Legend of Ohio," an original com
position by Mrs. Yockey, whose ver
satile attainments and trenchant pen
have afforded literary treats at the
reunions for seven years in succes
sion. Former officers were re-elected,
tbey being Rev. J. S. Smith, presi
dent; 0. H. Johnson, treasurer; Mrs.
Casslus Miller, secretary. The at
tendance was large and enthusiastic.
Upon adjournment the idea found
expression to make the anniversary
in 1917 larger and better than ever.
A straw vote was taken for presi
dent, the choice being a rather pert
functory one and was, of course, for
Burton of Ohio.

foot came under the wheels and the

LOUIS DObGE,
Cd operative Observer.
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.
