Ashland's inability to solve the
sorted hooks of Pitcher Michaels
yesterday brought the fourth
straight defeat for the local dub
when Grants Pass romped . away
with the game, 6 to 1, at Grants
Pans.
Michaels was in rare form and
let the local batsmen down with
three hits, two of them being,
made by Pillette and the other bv
Duke Marlow. Peterson cracked
out a slszllng grbunder to the sec­
ond baseman In the seventh In­
ning -which
brought Pillette
across with the lone score for th e 1
locals. The official scorer gave
the Grants Pass second baseman
' an error, although many scorers
would have given Peterson a two
base hit.

Seven-Year Old Child, Lost
Since Thursday Neon
Is Real Hero
WAS NEVER WORRIED
Had Lived on Raw Fish and
Berries for Four Days
and Nights
CLEAR LAKE RANG­
ER STATION, Mt. Hood,
Aug. 16 (U .P.) — Jackie
Strong, seven-year-old son
of Mr. ! and Mrs. R. W.
Strong of Gresham, was
rescued last night on the
southwestern slope of Mt,
Hood after being lost since
early Thursday afternoon.
The little hoy had lived
on wild berries and raw fish
since he wandered aw ay
from
hiH
two
older
brothers while on a fishing
trip in Paradise Park. He
was in good physical condi­
tion wheu rescuers reached
h im ja st night, although he
was tired and foot sore from
his harrowing experience.
Youth Unafraid
The youth insisted that
id lie could have rescued him­
self even if the {losses had
not rescued him.
He felt
that fears as to' his safety
<8 reflected on his ability as a
a woodsman, and could not
J understand the statewide
concern which had been
'f felt.
Jackie Was near the di-
«• vide not far from the snow
‘ line when searchers reached
8 him early last, night. • He
had climbed to a high point
of the mountain in order to
, get his ltearings.

Dramatic Episode
The search for the Strong
boy has been one of the
t most dramatic episodes of
its kind in Oregon for many-
years, A fter the boy had
become lost early Thursday
afternoon, hundreds’of eag­
er searchers, including sol-
, diers from Vancouver Bar
racks,
and
experienced
mountaineers from Port­
land nnd other points, had
been searching the* woods
day and night for somg
trace of the lad. H is foot,
prints were located Satur­
day, showing that he was
still able to walk, although
the prints indicated he was
fast tiring.
His two older brothers
had aided in the search for
three days, not stopping
for sleep during the anxioiw
moments.
< , »
The la d ’s ability to catch
fish and eat them raw and
to forage on wild berries
without giving up his cour­
age is pronounced one of
the most remarkable exhib­
its of juvenile fortitude in
the hi«forv of the west.
