Ashland Team Is
Going Great Guns
It wasn't 80 much that Hornbrook
couldn't play ball. It was because
Ashland could. And the type of
baseball that Is seldom seen away
out In the hughes. Listen to thin
tale, O kind people, and see if It
don't get that little bump of long
ing to see a, real ball game, throb
bing in your domes.
Pay attention now: One error In
nine innings of baseball (this is the
Ashland side). Only five men to
Teach first base in tbe Hornbrook
uniform. Big Chief Wilson was go
ing great guns and let the mountain
team down with three scratchy hits.
He passed one and one man got on
by the aforesaid error. None of
the five got as far as third. Two put
out stealing, two put out on double
plays and one left on bases. Boys, it
was simply grand to see that old
combination working.
The final score wag something
like eleven to nothing. Tho Horn
brook boys wre minus the services
of their regular catcher but fought
like the game lowers they were. The
Ashlanders started in pounding th
ball in the second Inning and the
basehlts rattled like a machine guft
thruout the rest of the gamo.
Big Chief Wilson struck out elev
en men and got four base hits which
Is about enough for one day,
Ruddy ScholU cavorted around
shortstop for the boys and showed
up like a streak of lightning. He
will play with Ashland for tho rest
of the season and the fans are pat
ting themselves on their backs.
With Scholtz, who is about the
wh)ule wo)ks on the Santa Clara
college diamond, and Lilly cutting
capers around the keystone sack
that old Infield Is going to have the
pepper what am.
The trip over to Hornbrook was a
huge success. Watch these boys go
Medford Airplane
Will Fly From Here
Ashland has Joined the . '.'fly"
craze that has struck Medford since
the advent of the airplane that tho
Medford Aircraft company has se
cur! for passengeds' flights. Not
to be outdone by the sister city,
whoso citizens have been feeling
very much "up In tho air" recently,
a request has been made for the
company to bring their plane over
here. This request has been com
piled with, and Friday and Satur
day have been set apart for this
purpose. Flights will bo made from
tiio aviation field on tho Wake place
across Bear creek both days, begin
ning at 8 o'clock Friday morning.
and will continue at intervals all
day and Saturday, as long as citizens
desire to take part in this method

Already a number of booking
have been made for the flights to bo
