Oakridge Has Collection Of Sharpshooters The Oakridge sharp - shooters' were unstoppable and collected shots from every angle as they worked up the biggest score of yesterday's play and a count that bid's to be the highest of the tour ney. The boys from Oakridge take the baskets that count the most points and let the chicken feed go. They collected 23 field goals ktst sight and only three free throws. Sorens of Gardiner easily dropped -in the first point and for a few minntes it looked as if the contest would be close. But the Oakridge lads got limbered up and began boosting the score. Af ter it was tied at four all Oak ridge went to work, sank basket after basket until ihey led 1 to 5. At halftime Oakridge was ahead 33 to IS and at the close of the third period 43 to IS.

T 50 Per Gent Gain in State Fair Attendance Predicted By Gehlhar; Growth Cited The state fair is a husky, going concern and at Its nresant rata of growth the attendance in 1935 may attract 60 per cent more vis itors than in 1934. If so the at- tendance'wlll be 200 Tjap cant above the peak of prosperous nines. Such ts the summary made of the state fair in a review just re leased by Max Gehlhar, director of agriculture and ex-officio head or state fair operations. -The sum mary la contained fa th Marh issuo of the department of agri culture s report. Gehlhar's ex tensive report mav be Jnternratad as an answer to criticisms of state fair activities recently made j u. o. nun or uorvanu. Debts Reduced Gehlhar opens his report by pointing out that the debts of the fair have been rednead at a aaa under his administration. Of this sum, 139,500 consists of reduc tion in the principal ot th grand stand debt and the remainder of premium overdrafts and current unpaid debts he allegedly Inher ited" when .ha took over the op eration of the fair. "To gather in this -160,000 was no easy task during the depres sion," Gehlhar states in his re port, "if you consider that even during good times 'the fair could not pay its operating -expenses,-hut ran into debt inn aft re ceiving an additional appropria tion to liquidate the current l&- debtednesjf." Gehlhar said the reduction ef the far's debt, now totaling onlj 8103,000, was accomplished by diverting 59,681 from operating expenses. Three things were done to put the fair Into good shape, Gehlhar said: Operating Coste Cut 1. Operating costs of the -fair were reduced to 137,397 a year during the last three years com pared to $81,901 average costs during the- preceding three years. Gehlhar said these figures did not Include premium outlays; premi um expenditures totaled 3132,000 in th past four years in addition to operating expenses," he assert ed. 2, The state fair's - plant was entirelv rehabilitated with nn building on the grounds repaired or repainted and wKh five new structures built and paid for with cash. 3. The state fair's business waa onureiy renauuitated. Admissions and nearly all other charges were c in nan. The free pass evil was abolished. Attendance Gains "Last year the total attanrfanea at the fair was 180.879," Geh lhar reported. "The five-year av erage from 1927 to 1931. inclu sive, was 85,575." This is an In crease of 111 per cent. Based on state population, Oregon now claims the largest attendance of any state- fair even though It is not located near the state's ma jor City as so manv fairs are In summarising the state fair's position, Gehlhar reported: "During the year 1932, under its burden of debt it looked to many as though the Oregon state fair must closo lts doors, as some other fairs aid. An adjoining itate fair dosed its doors and has not re-opened since. Another ad joining state nbw has no state fair.
