DOIGKDATS TO FLY

Brickbats of vary Inr least h

association meeting, December 30.
with members of the board of con
trol on the receiTing end. , . , . -Salem,
Medford, and The Dalles
will toss most of them. On one
joint- they- are agreed the state
board of control, and particularly
Secretary Roy Cannon, v most be
censured -but,: aside from" this,
each has another purpose oa-which
there Is a slight difference of op
inion. For Instance Principal: J. :C.
Kelson la most concerned at the
evasion by the board of control of
the association ' rule against post
season games ' after Thanksgiving
day which are . not V for the state
championship. It piques him still
more' to hare Secretary Cannon
excuse his mistake on the'grouhd
of "prtmeiavw
"You are not hopelessly dense,
wrote ; Secretary .Cannon to Prin
cipal Nelson yesterday after read
las; Ja report in a Portland paper
to the effect that the board would
fceVasked to explain many things
at the December meeting, partic
ularly as to why permission was
granted Medford and McLough-
bigh schools to play a - football
game without naming -it a title
clash. - . , Z
an -fact, X would say you are
technically keen;,Posslbly, T dream
ed , this 'unwritten part of the
roles and regulations. " " ,"' . .
And then. Secretary Cannon
goes on to say that he sees no oth
er ' way, as one, member of .the
board, to do other than was
agreed upon at the November 19
meeting:, that Is, call the Medford
McLoughlln game a non-title clash
unless "action, to the contrary it
taken.-
"Action to the contrary" -Is
what . Principal Nelson will seek
tn which event Medford "would be
automatically acclaimed the title-
bearer.
The Dalles, according to a let
ter received yesterday by the lo
cal school, is heartily In accord
with the plan to censure the board
of control for Its Illegal" action.
but it will balk any attempt . to
hand the title on a silver platter
to Medford.
And The Dalles principal makes
It plain In his letter that the rule
evasion was repeatedly called to
.Cannon's attention after permis
sion to play was granted. He also
charges that despite a definite un
derstanding that his school was tc
play the winner of the McLougb
lin Ontario tilt,: trumped-up stor
ies of The Dalles refusal to play,
euehered them out of the chance
Medford, It Is believed, will
make a sturdy . tand to have the
board's action rescinded so that
the game against McLoughlin will
stand as for the championship,
and ; permit them ' officially to
claim It, '.. . ,, , ,
Other schools In the state will
line up In the three camps. It Is
believed. Tillamook; West Linn,
. and Lenbanon will proba"bly side
in with. The Dalles to prevent the
title going to Medford. Most of the
others will be principally concern
ed with the rule evasion, no mat
ter who gets the honor.
la any event, any attempt of the
board to side-trick the discussion
with promises of a better method
for determining the title next year
will meet with failure, it Is be
lieved. No plan can go Into; ef
fect next year, anyway. It Is point
ed out for the reason that It will
be a change tn the by-laws whlcl
cannot be made unless a plan ie

ROAMING AROUND -And run
Into an of f-the-trall : story con
cerning a major star that is some
what interesting; and I fear a
bit typical of the trend of the
times in baseball.
This big league star, who ha
figured In the winter; trade rum
ors, j won nis early "fame - in tn
Southern association. One of the
enthusiastic fans following the
dally doings of the association of
fered an auto to the most valuable
player in ,the league for the sea
son then on. -
The player in question was
chosen to receive the honor.
4 ; A ceremony in keeping with the
occasion 1 was ' . arranged. 1 ; High
Commissioner Landis, Incidentally,
was to be present at the time. The;
player was' asked to attend t the;
ceremony, quite naturally. ' It was
staged on" an overnight , Journey
from the city In - which he had
played. - !
"The donor was somewhat star
tled to receive a request from the
player tor traveling expenses for
the, journey. He complied with
the request. . '
Following the presentation the
recipient : then1 suggested .that In
view of the fact that his .winter
home lay somewhat north of the
city in which he received the auto,
that he felt disinclined to drive the
car home, and asked that the fac
tory ship another car of the same
make direct to his door. ' ; "
This story Is verified by men
who know. ,
There is, of course, a feeling
that the player Involved was some
what "high hat" about the matter,
but the rood sports Involved seen

have encroached on - the former
spirit In baseball when .players
labored for years to go Into the
majors unannounced and unsung,
and then had to win new honors
there before they basked in the
limelight of fame.
