The-Ashland hoon-squad defeated the Orange and Black men in two. games Thursday and last night, the score of the first being 18 to 17 and the latter 29 to 26, though local witnesses of the games maintain that tile Granite City five, was outplayed practically throughout both games by the-' Roseburg five, which was handi capped by Ashland's small floor.
