Addy, Assistant Pro­ fessor of Education and Super­ visor of Teaching at the Lincoln School has just returned from an Oregon State Teachers’ Assoc ia- tion convention held in Portland, November 28, 29. Mrs. Addy re­ Oregon presented the Southern College of Education in this coun­ cil moating. the first place, there is no such a thing as a state football champion, the holder of the title being only the possessor of myth­ ical crown. The Oregon high school activities association has continuously refused to sanction such a title and has already said this year that they are not in­ terested in permitting a post- season game for his purpose Bailey's claim is laid on the grounds that his club has not been beaten all season but maybe he has no regard for being held to a 7-7 tie by Grants Pass, win- ners of second place in the South- em Oregon conference, Remem- ber what Klamath Falls did to Grants Pass. Mr. Bailey? That score was 31 to 0 in favor of Klamath Falls. That tie is en- ough to throw any claims for a state title in the ash can. Klam- ath has gone undefeated in a tough season. The Pelicans sche­ duled what games were necessary to complete their league schedule and then booked the strongest competition in the state. Bailey said he offered o play the Pelicans during the regular season but was offered only September 11 which was several days before the Marshfield schools began. Can Ramsey help it if Bailey withheld his bid for a game until Ramsey's schedule was full? And, speaking of play­ ing before school started, Medford had two games under their belt before a class was ever called. Speaking of the Grants Pass game, Bailey said his team was entitled to an off-day during such a heavy schedule. That’s the first time this department ever heard of a champion disregarding a loss, which a tie amounts to in this case, as an off-day. May­ be his team did have an off-day but, if so, they are definitely not of championship calibre. The Klamath Falls club has nothing to gain by playing a post season game with Marshfield while Bailey can feather his nest iin the event Marshfield SHOULD happen to upset the mighty Peli­ cans. But, in all probability the game will not be played thia year and the best thing Bailey can do, in our opinion, is to hang up his team’s suits for the sea- | son and be satisfied with only a tie and no losses against their record. son Mr».
