Ashland and Medford will play
off their postponed baseball gamo
at the county fair grounds next
Sunday afternoon at 2:30.
This was the decision reached
after a stormy meeting at Medford
last night between the Ashland
and Medford directors. Follow
ing their usual tactics, the Med-
ford directors wanted all the best
of every argument, and as. a re
sult of some of their unreasonable
demands, the bitterness which has
prevailed between the two teams'
was intensified.
Plenty of Nerve
Seeing defeat staring them In
the face, the Medford magnates
wanted Ashland to loan them a
couple of players. This request
was met with a laugh on the .part
of local directors, and the Med
ford bosses were told to try to
be good sports tor once In their
Uvea.
Then Medford wanted 60 per
cent of the gate receipts because
