A SHLAND'S chamber of com-
merce has gone on record en
dorsing a resolution favoring es
tablishment of a shuttle service of
United Airlines, nerving southern,
central and northern Oregon, it
wax announced yesterday.
Along with the city council, the
chamber of commerce has for
warded a copy of the resolution to
United Airlines officials prepara
tory to the hearing of the com-
¡>any in Washington, D. C., within
a short time.
Under the proptsml, the com
pany would operate a secondary
line between Medford, Eugene and
Salem. It was estimated that
proximately 60,000 persons in
various communities would be
served, as well as bringing the
communities closer together from
a business and commercial stand
point.
Decision on the application is
eagerly aw-aited and is expected to
be made public from Washington
within a short time.
Meanwhile, chamber of com
merce officials are continuing
their work on the newly adopted
non-solicitation program, aimed at
curbing unwarranted promotion
and advertising schemes which
take out hundreds of dollars and
leave nothing of financial or ma
terial value in return. Cards stat
ing that "This firm will consider
only solicitations as approved by
the Ashland Chamber of Com
merce" will be distributed to
chamber members within a short
time.
C. M. Litwiller, president of the
chamber, urged full-hearted co
operation on the part of all con
cerned. He declared that “if the
members of the chamber of com
merce will co-operate in this
move, it will bring a noticeable I
decrease in the number of unad-
vantageous solicitations.”
Dean Pieper, chamber of com
merce secretary, is away this
week-end, attending the fall con
vention of Oregon Commercial
Secretaries at the Oregon Caves.

GRIZZLIES DUST
GRIDIRON ‘JINX’
Coach Leighton Blake broke a
year-old jinx at the high school
Friday night when he sent his
charges to a 7 to 6 win over the
Lakeview Honkers in the 1940
football inaugural for both elevens.
Lakeview recovered an Ashland
fumble deep in Ashland territory
in the first quarter and a double
reverse scored a touchdown but an
attempt to kick the extra point
was blocked.
In the second period Ashland
took possession of the ball on the
Honkers’ 30-yard line and march-
ed 70 yards for their score, Martin
Hernn plunging through the cen
ter of the line on a fake reverse.
A pass from Charlie Jandreau to
Ken Caton in the end zone ac
counted for the margin of victory.
The ball hit a Lakeview player
and bounced squarely into Caton's
arms.
Blake was well pleased with the
performance of his inexperienced
squad and said the boye executed
players with comparative smooth
ness for so early in the season.
"Die defense looked exceptionally
good as it repeatedly stopped the
heavy Lakeview line.
The Grizzlies remain idle this
week-end and open the Southern
Oregon High School conference
against Grants Pass on the Cave
man field next Friday night.
