High School Team
To Play Sa ms Nine
The Jacksonville high school boys
baseball team, coached by W. J.
Nee, will play its first game of the
short season Friday afternoon with
Sams Valley high school on the lo­
cal diamond.
Mr. Nee reports a lack of equip­
ment and players because of the in­
auguration this week of the Ameri­
can Legion junior league, which
will draw much of the available ma­
terial from school athletics. How­
ever a brisk schedule has been lined
up and the following week, on May
3, Eagle Point will journey here for
an encounter. May 6 the Jackson­
ville schoolers will go to Sams Val­
ley for a game and on May 13 they
will drive to Butte Falls for a game
there. May 19 Jacksonville will play
Eagle! Point at Eagle Point, and
the final game, May 20, will be
played on the home diamond with
Butte Falls.

Shangle, staff photographer, has secured dainty
portraits of both of them.

It is probable that Crater Lake
national park can be entered
through the Medford entrance next
Sunday, thereby affording southern
Oregon people their long desired
opportunity to visit the park
through its deep snow and see the
famed lake in winter setting.
The possibility depends on how
much new snow falls in the park
between now and Sunday. If too
much does not fall the park snow
plow, which is working on the en­
trance road inside the park, will
meet at the Medford entrance the
state highway snowplow, which is
working toward the same goal, out­
side the park from Union Creek.
The park plow is working in eight
feet of snow and the state highway
plow in about six feet.
