MEPO SPIRIT AGAIti CROPS OUT With a sportsmanship that would do credit to a four-year-old and an outburst of genuine Medford spirit. Captain "Shorty" Miles of the Med ford ball team yesterday refused to proceed with the' game when a de cision had been made against his club. The play In question was In the first of the fourth, when a Medford batter knocked a three-base hit but faded to touch first base and was put out. The game would probably have been resumed but for the "crab bing" of Miles, who has a major asset In his lung power and who had been caught asleep off first by Pernoll a few minutes before. The first three Innings ot the game were played In big league style, both teams playing fine ball. The outi were made In quick succession and no runs were scored until the third, when, after a single and two sacri fices had placed a man on third, Weckler laid on the ball for two bases, bringing In the. first run. In the first of the fourth, Pernoll, with one out, managed to catch Miles on first. A player then got to second and when the next hatter came up and was put out for falling to tonch first, the, Medford team showed the yellow streak and' marched off the field. It was unfortunate tbat the Incident occurred, for even the Med ford umpire acknowledged that the decision was fair and that the Med tord player "might have touched the bag if he stuck his foot out' far enough." Twohy Riggs, base umpire, was on the spot when the play oc curred, but evidently the Medford players had had enough of Pernoll. Umpire Miller, of Medford, award ed the game to Grants Pass by a score of 9 to 0, which Is In accordance with the rules. It was reported today that "Curly" Wilson and several other Medtord players, disgusted with Captain Miles' action, have turned In their uniforms and quit the' Medford team as long as Miles has anything to do with Its management or direction.

A pos sibly delicate situation for the United States expedition In Mexico msy re sult from the renewed Vlltlsta activity In southern Chihuahua, according to army ofltcers today, This and the discovery of a quantity of dynamite In the Mexican quarter ot Columbus were generally discussed In the base camp. After a week's search, start ed on a tip by a 'Mexican member of the state mllltla, secret service men dug up the dynamite during the night. Three Mexicans were arrested. The hiding place of the dynamite was thrice changed as the search became hot, Investigation ; developed. The three prisoners are suspected ot tak ing part In the VUllsta raid of March 9. v That Villa personally Is directing, If not actually leading, the present rebellion devastating southern . Chi huahua Is undoubted in authoritative circles here. "Saviour of Mexico," Villa was called by recruiting agents and agi tators who for weeks have been arous ing the people In Villa's name. "Tbe object of the American puni tive expedition was the extermination of Villa and his bandits," said a high officer, whose name the censorship forbids mentioning. "Now Villa Is beginning operations, Carranza admit ted his helplessness and Inability to hold the bandits in check when he notified Washington to M- on guard against raids In the Big fiend country. iBut Carrania's order preventing ui from moving south, east or west against tbe 'bandits Is still In force.
