Dr. DeGroat Speaks
At Lions Dinner
"World conditions reflect the
thought of the world's peoples"
stated Dr C. M DeGroat, scien­
tific lecturer, who gave a short
talk at the Lions dinner Tuesday
evening Dr. DeGroat pointed out
that we are living in a scientific
age and emphasized the power of
thought which scientists now
agree affects the physical, mental
and spiritual welfare of the indi­
vidual. The speaker also stressed
the importance of constructive
thinking in the attainment of suc­
cess. saying that to have control
of time one must have control of
the thoughts and attitudes which
go Into the building of one s men­
tal structure.
Judson Doke, partner in the
Ashland Ice and Storage company,
provided a very attractive dessert
for the dinner in the form of ice
cream bons.

JUNIORS IN TIE
WITH MEDFORD
Mark Marquess, a little fullback
for Ashland junior high, put over
a touchdown in the first period
against his former Medford JHS
teammates to gain a 6-fl tie in the
football game played at the Wal­
ter Phillips field here last night.
His scoring play was a four-yard
dash through right tackle. Earl

made on a 25 yard pass down the

In the closing minutes of the

long gains, but the rally was

as the game ended.
