NOSLER’S CASH STORE Coquille, Oregon Phone 4 J ______ Sport Brief■ (By Mark Seeley) Further indications and proof that our little city is a topnotcher was ax- hited last Sunday when the Colored House of David and the Coquille Log gers played before a crowd which paid near three hundred dollars to see the attraction. This means that a huge crowd had to attend to raise such a figure, and the fact is much more enlarged when you consider that times are »till kHghtly unsettled and that this waa the largest turnout the colored performers have witnessed in Oregon. in the 1929 season when local base ball reached a peak such a crowd might have been considered as merely average, but if finances were as easy now as then Sunday's engagement would likely have seen the grand mark boated. It was a colorful, ap- preciatice crowd, and the only regret table fact is that our own Coquille Loggers had their first real let-down of the season. Never think for a moment that the dark boys are that much bettor than Fortier’s charges. On another date the results might have been reversed. For what may be the concluding games of the year for the local base ball aggregation, the Salem (Senators will visit Coquille on Saturday, Sun day and Monday for a three-game series with the Loggers. Manager Fortier states that in all liklihood this «rill be the final stand for Coquille, unless an engagement is made vrith Wolfer’s Federal«, champions of the Oregon State League, for a state championship tilt on September 10. Two more logical contenders for such an honor are not known. Co quille has dominated all of Southern Oregon and Wlolfer’e the Willamette valley and Portland sections, and as baseball is not so apparent in Eastern Oregon, there seems to be no other rivals.

The Herald, merged with the Sentinel in 1917, was edited at that time by J. S. McEwen. And there was only one school house in Coquille, 84 years years ago, but one of the names in the corps of teachers then will be recognised aa that of one of the best qualified primary teachers in southern Oregon today: Our City Schools opened yesterday morning. The sweet-toned bell rang out at 8:80 and soon a host of pupils were on their way, giving quite a lively appearance to the streets lead ing school ward. Part of the school board was pres ent with the teachers — Chairman Collier and Mr. James (Mr. Fox being absent jn the country), Mr. and Mrs. J. S. McEwen were also present. The enrollment up to morning re cess was as follows: Miss Fetter’s primary room, 58— every ssat being occupied; Mies Beyers’ 2d intermediate, *1; Mm. 1st intermediate, 40; Prof. Nosier’« department, 30—making a total of 172 scholars. Three rooms are full, another half full, and about 180 schol ars yet to be heard from. Coquille, of course, has not met as many opponents as Wolfer’s, but in crossing bats with Salem, ths Log gers «rill be meeting another Oregon State League team that until the closing games of the schedule «ras battling for the top. For this aeries, B. Y. P. U. Party however, one can easily count on Sa Mrs. Flora E.
