A meeting of the Coquille Com

tomorrow evening, and a full at

T h e time is
ripe for the resumption of activity
on the part of o u r local boosting
organization, and every one should
take an interest in the work.
T h e discovery th a t Chas. F oster,

not of violence, relieves that com

individuals so in h u m a n th at they

the nation with new towels.

The Coquills high school b a s k e t
ball team made a trip to tbe bay
last week and defeated both tbe bay
teams. On Thursday evening North
Bend went down to defeat with a
score of 35 to 9. Tbe Coquille team
bad tbeir opponents outclassed iu
every respect. The game at Marsh
field on Friday evening was closer, j
the score being 21 to 17 in favor of
the Coquille hoys It is by no j
means an easy matter to play ganus
on twro nights in succession and tbe ’
team from tbe local school did not ;
show such excellent form in the sec
ond game. Ho.vever, they did suf
ficiently well to win the game.
The first game of the season to be
played on tbe home floor will be
next Friday evening. The Marsh
field team, the best in tbe country
outside Coquille, will be tbe viators.
The game is sure io be a good one
and should draw a good crowd.
Tbe second basket ball team of
tbe local high school chartered tbe
Wolverine and went to Riverton
for a game Friday evening, deieat-
ing tbe Riverton team by a score of
10 to 6 The lineup of tbe Coquille
team was as follows: forwards, Nor
ton and Lawrence; center, Pike;
guards, Adams and Keith Leslie.
Allen McDuffee referted the game
in s highly satisfactory manner.
Riverton has some excellent basket
ball material and, with m re prac
tice in matched games, will no
doubt turn out ao excellent team.
The school continues to grow.
