well, looked sick. Miles, who has
been -a favorite player tor two
years, appeared greatly handicap
ped by the two broken legs he
suffered last summer.
It was almost pitiful as Mc
Minnville steamed away' to lead
by a dozen points before The
Dalles could score. At the close of
the first quarter McMinnville led
12 to 2. By halftime itwas 18 to
7. The Dalles began to perk a lit

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

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. During this trying time, the
director of agriculture had the
