We hope there is a good turn
out for the Medford-Ashiu n d
game Friday night, at Medford.
The two towns have been trad i
tional rivals and a good delega
tion there might go a long ways
to buck up the local lads in their
toughest game of the season.
Of course Medford is a heavy
favorite to take the game. They
have indeed run up an impressive
score this season, continuing an
unbeaten record of last year For
this playing season ,the Tornado
goal line has been crossed but
twice, und the game last Friday
night with Bend when they ran
up a score of 78 to 0 reputed to
be the lurgest score in high school
football in several seasons. In
seven games this fall they have
ummassed a total of 401 points
against heir opponents’ 16, which
¡4 pretty fust football in any
m an’s league.
While Ashland has had a good
or average season, they have
been defeated twice, with K la
m ath Falls and Marshfield taking
a game apiece. They huve not
turned in any impressive record
und it would be only by u fluke
or something that they could win,
if the figures of the game mean
anything.
But we imugine that there will
be some good playing by the
Ashland boys, and we are sure
they will fight till the final gun
sounds. A good turn out of Ash
land fans will help. How about it?

Hallowe’en Party
The Young Adult Methodist
Youth Fellowship Class h e l d
their monthly covered-dish-dinn-
er-party last Saturday evening in
the Fellowship Rooms of the
Church. At six thirty the young
married couples sat down to the
bounteous dinner in the rooms
decorated with bats, owls, cats,
skeletons, pumpkins, autum n col
ors, and fall flowers. Mrs. Bill
Howell, and Mrs. George W.
Bruce and Mrs. Avis Anderson
decorated the rooms and tables
for the evening.
Following the dinner the forty
people sat around the fire place
ana enjoyed Hallowe’en games
led by Mr. Bill Howell. A real
ghost story was told while the
group sat in semidarkness, ana
articles representing the dead
body of a slain person were pass
ed from hand to hand among the
participants. Many an “ah” and
“OOH” and a scream now and
then were heard. The game of
"M urder” added to the ‘spooki
ness’ of the evening’s entertain
ment. Mrs. Ed Nelson, dressed in
a white ghost costume, carrying
a flash light beneath the robe,
stood in the dark room and read a
ghost story that made the chills
creep up and down the spines o
those who listened.
Mrs. Avis Anderson, Mrs. Bill
Howell and Mrs. G. W. Bruce
were the kitchen and entertain
m ent committee for the evening.
At a late hour the party broke up
and people were rem arking “this
is the best party we ever had—
what good times we have at these
monthly meetings—wish we could
meet oftener. Too bad the other
member of the class had to miss
this.” The next m onthly dinner
party will be held on the regular
meeting date in the month of Dec
ember.
