SOUTHERN OREGON MINER Page 6 ASHLAND NINE TO FACE FIRST I* ♦ New Miner Feature! 4 * Ashland's Southern Oregon Lea­ gue baseball team will receive its first test of the current season Sunday at Jacksonville with Bud ConUns Medford Gilmore Lions furnishing the opposition. The battle will be a practice affair and will start at 2:30 o'clock. Playing manager John Miljus is undecided as to whom will be the starting hurler for the Ashlanders, but it will probably be lanky Bob Hardy, the lefthanded high school fireballer. Miljus plans to work all his pitchers during the game but will do no chucking himself. Bill Kannasto, righthander, Arnold Gosnell, righthander and Neil Winkle, Normal school hurler and another orthodox thrower will all see action. Probably the entire Ashland roster will make the trip to the historic town and probably every­ one will get to see what opposing pitching looks like. Cliff McLean will probably do the bulk of the catching with Steve Fowler, high school receiver and John Baldwm alternating be­ hind the bat. Gilmore Lions, under the mana­ gership of Bud Conlin, long and well known in Southern Oregon bush baseball, will enter the game with one victory already under their belt, a 7-0 win over Jack­ sonville last Sunday. They will un­ doubtedly present plenty of tough opposition, as they boast practi­ cally the identical team that drub­ bed Medford's Southern Oregon Rogues 8-0 at the tail end of last year. The game will be the first of two practice affairs for Ashland before the start of the 1935 South­ ern Oregon League pennant race. The following ‘ ■ Sunday, Ashland will travel to Hilt. California to play the Lumberjacks and the next Sunday, May 5, the Miljusites will be away to Grants Pass to blast open the league with the champion Grants Pass Merchants. In the first workout of the sea­ son, held at Fuller field last Sat­ urday, manager Miljus was greet­ ed by a hustling crew of better than 25 aspirants. For five solid hours the huge ex-big leaguer sent the throng a gruelling workout and when it was all over, expressed the opinion that he had the makings of a fine ball club. The big fellow was especially enthusiastic over Parker Hess, young high school shortstop, and Cliff McLean, SONS catcher. Both those boys, stated Miljus, showed a lot of promise. Following are the players who have been turning out and who will probably make the trip to Jacksonville: pitchers, Kannasto, Gosnell, Hardy, Winkle; catchers, McLean, Fowler, Baldwin; in­ fielders, Billy Courtney, Billy Hulen, Parker Hess, Bill Jung­ wirth, Ray Woodyard. Bill Court­ ney; outfielders, Leonard Hall, Wally Walcott, Barnes and several others. ----- •----- Master Masons At Klamath Falls In Successful Meeting The gathering of Southern Ore- gon Master Masons * held ’ ’ at Klamath Falls last Saturday was a wonderful success. About 350 members of the order were pre- sent, most of them residents of Southern Oregon and northeastern California. The register, however showed lodge membership from the isle of Man, Eng. on the east, to Hawaii and the Philippines on the west (they are not east,) and from Duluth, Minn., on the north to Key West, Fla., on the south. Every Master Mason present was given a triangular badge printed in blue on white wood. His name and lodge were penned on in red, making it easy for visitors to identify one another. Those attending from Ashland included Otis Johnson, David Whittle, Art Peters, H. J. Carter, Jim Lennox, D. A. Manz, H. H. Sproul, Fred Hitchcock, Harold Teal and B. W. Talcott.

Life isn’t all "luck.” Though ability isn’t evenly divided among humankind, ability to get ahead is often a matter of choice. Often the man called “lucky" in business has made his own luck by foresight, careful plan­ ning, saving for opportunity. He realized opportunity would mean nothing if he weren’t in a position to grasp it. The man with money saved regularly can usually master x circumstances.
