BASE BALL NOTES. Standing of the Rogue River Valley League: Won Lost Per Cent Medford 4 9 .667 Grants Pats 2 9 .500 Jacksonville 3 S .500 Ashland 0 8 .000 The Grants Pass ball team accom panied by about 20 of the local fans went to Jacksonville last Sunday for the second game this year with that famous Jackson county team.- The game was a little more closely con tested than tbe game of a week ago, the score being 5 to 3 in favor of Jacksonville. The boys all played pretty good ball, but like Jacksonville a week ago, "it was their day off" and this fact taken into consideration with the old story "rotton deal" what else could be expected? Losing this same puts their percentage down to a tie with Jacksonille for second place each having .600 per cent, while Medford now leads the list, bnt the boys expect to get up to their old plaoe at the top in a few more games. The A. A. O. and Medford ball teams eross bats on the local A. A. C. diamond this next Sunday. This is expected to be one of the most inter esting games of the season as these teams are considered the strongest in the R. R. Valley league and are fight ing hard for first plaoe. The Ashland team was supposed to play here this Sunday bnt owing to some change in the schedule their game has been post poned. The Medford and Ashland teams had their second game Sunday on the Medford . diamond. Ashland again losing by a score of 8 to 8, wbioh puts Medford in the lead. It is rumored that the Ashland team has imported two new player from Oalifornia ; one of them is expected to do the twirling aot while the other, will do the receiving. It is about time they were doing something if they intend to win any games this season as they haven't woo a sane thus far. - But-they have - not played Grants Pass yet and they play their first gam with Jacksonvilll this next Sunday, so when they go the rounds It may not be so bad after all Mis Margaret Hanseth left Tuesday evening for Portland, where she will make ber future home.
