more baba dodb for yqnth than

Ashland H igh Defeats Rose-
burg 56 to 0 in Fine Game
Played a t A thletic Field
Yesterday — Dedication
of Grandstand W as B ig
Feature.
- -
By Billy Hnlen
Led by an unheralded star. M
second string Ashland H l defeat­
ed Roseburg here yesterday, 56-0.
This yonag man. a Mr. Wiley,
flashed some of the best open
field running seed' this year. His
long runs and blocking were the
features af an otherwise ragged
game.
The first Ashland score came
as a result of a thrilling 45 yd.
dash by Wiley. It was on a reverse
play and with perfect Interference
he ran to the Roseburg ten. A’ *
few plays later Leedom heaved a
pas» to Simpson for tpe score.
All through the game both
teams played ragged ball.
A queer feature of the game
was that the crimson and white
did not kick once. Only in ‘ the
closing minute« of the game did
Roseburg tty-eaten to score. •
In a last desperate attempt to
score they opened up an axial At­
tack that took the ball slowly
down the field. The game ended
with the oval on the fifteen yd.
stripe.
Gandee, fnll back, played a
stellar game. Ha scored t w o
touchdowns and backed ap the
line perfectly on defenae. The
playing of Abbott’s tackle w a g
when he broke through a n d
blocked a puat. Not katisfied he
then fell on it for six points. Also
out of seven tries for conversions
he completed seven. Leedom eon-
verted the other. “Sonny” played
his usual long running and pa—-
ing game.
Enough sal^.
The starting lineup was com­
posed mostly of second string man
and they made a vary good record
for themselves.
The game marked tbs dedica­
tion of the big grandstand by the
Lithlans who built it last faU. A
speech by Professor Vining dar­
ing the half intermission was the
feature.
'
A good crowd attended the
game. The Ashland starting Una-,
up and scoring follows:
, E Katser, E. Simpson, T. Ab­
bott, T Keaton, O. Brown, G.
Moore, C. Madden, Q. Nutter, H,
Leedom, H. Wiley, F. Hitchcock.
Touchdowns: Gandee, J;- Leo-
