The Allies won a v.ctory 25 years ago on November 11. llMN
Yesterday, November 11, 1943, the fighting Grizzlies won a victory
that will-go down in the annals of this ivy^eovered schoolhouse as
Ute World War 1 outcome did In our nation's history A tradition
was smashed yesterday, a traditkm which has made Medford the
fearful ogre clad in black and red robes ever Since the rivalry started
decades ago. Never in (hut time has Ashland been able to sup the
Tigers’ strength in l<«as than seven year intervals.
Yesterday a mighty red and white Juggernaut took advantage
•f nearly every opportunity to advance.
The first half of the battle proved to be the most exciting, as
n tho first quarter, a heavy Tiger club, with the aid of a couple of
I tumbles on Ashland's 30 yard line, pushed the pigskin over goal
for the first score. Watson added to Baker's score by kicking the
extra point. On the kickoff the Grizzlies managed to run the lyill
to the Ashland 31 marker. Riggs smashed through the line, carrying
the pigskin to the Medford 42 On repeated drives Riggs plowed
through an obviously worried Tiger trim to the seven yard line
Tile quarter ended with the ball rtl’l there, but an exuberant Grizzlies
team determined to put it over.

The final stanza proved to be
scoreless and not particularly ex­

Chaplain Speaks at
SOCE Assembly
Chaplain Delbert S Laquement
of Camp White was speaker at
the Southern Oregon College of
Education Friday. November 12,
at the second program held this
week in observance of Education
Week
Chaplain Laquement’s topic was
the need to recognize and teach
the right ideas, which he defined
as those ideas which mankind has
learned through centuries'of civ­
ilization will contribute most to
the good of men as individuals
and as members of a society. He
called attention to the function of
the Army as a school, its instruc­
tion not limited to principles of
combat but for special groups
ranging from the three "R’s’’ fop
I the illiterate to learning to con­
duct the civic life of occupied
countries.
Chaplain T-aquement’s address
was the last in a series of pro­
grams observing Education Week
at SOCE.
