LOSES TO ASHLAND
BY 1 9-36 SCORE
The Ashland bnsketeors carried off
the first game- of the Medford-ABh-,
land series last night on their floor
when they won from the Medford
)ileh quintet by a 36 to 1ft score. It
was the concensus of opinion among
the witnesses of last night's battle
that tho Medford squad outclassed
their adversaries In practically every
phase of straight basketball, but the
consistent work of Herr, foul shooter
for Ashland, In converting free tosses
called by Keferee Bohler piled up
Ashland's overwhelming advantage.
The local hoopers showed some of the
clever work displayed in the Hills
Academy gamo and local fans were
well satisfied with their performance.
The .Medford men -were unable to
open up and play their-own, style of
gamo because of the close refereclng
and thero wus strong feeling, among
the spectators and general dissatls
fctlon over the decisions of Bonier,
a University of Oregon man, whose
method of handling the game was
entirely different from what Southern
Oregon teams have been used to. This
condition mado the game ragged and
uninteresting, but it is hoped, that
when Medford and Ashland again
tangle on tho Katatorlum floor to
night thero will be a better opportu
nity for a fair comparison of the
strength of tho two teams.
A board of arbitration composed of
Superintendent Rrlscoe , of Ashland,
Superintendent Smith of Medford,
eferec Homer, Mr. Tederlck of Cen
tral Point and Mr. Jewell of Talent
today decided that Kol Andre, a Utile
verslty of Oregon man, should referee
and have complete charge of to
night's mix. Medford supporters are.
satisfied with Andro and; feel that
tonight the- Medford men will put
over a strong como back. -
Never in tho history, of Southern
Oregon sports has more Interest been
shown In the Medford-Ashland cham
pionship girls series, the t first, of
which was won by Ashland' Inst night
when the Itcd nnd White girls, scored
a basket In the extra- period of play.
The game ended with a 3t to Zl tic
and It wns nip and tuck between the
two evenly matched sextets from the
first-whistle to the last. The Hne

JAPAN INDUSTRY
TOKIO. (Correspondence of Asso
ciated Press.) That Japan's foreign
trade would show no remarkable in
crease of Imports In the future and
that consequently there would be no
marked decreases In the' amount of
Japan's specie holdings, was the opin
ion voiced by Governor Inouye of tho
bank ot Japan addressing the. Tokio
bankers.
.Governor .Inouye was referring to
existing adverse conditions in Jain
anese commercial and industrial life
"The best measures for tiding over
the preserft depressed situation," said
Governor Inouye, "are, in the first
place, to reduce the cost of production
to the lowest possible point. The cost
of production of various merchandise
in this country Is disproportionately
high, compared with the level in other
countries.' With a, high cost of pro
ductlon, Japanese merchandise cannot
possibly compete with manufacturers
of otner 'countries, .and this forms a
great obstacle to the development ot.
the export trade of Japan.
Reduction of the coBt of production
Is, accordingly, not only- a matter of
Imperative' necessity of the moment,
but Ib also good for ths permanent In
terests of the country.- It' may bring
about a fall In wages and dimmish the
buying powor of tho lower and middle
classes for a tlxnc, but 'th(s must' be
tolerated for tho-.purpqse of 'attaining
the fundamental consolidation of the
financial. world. - ' , -..;v .-
Secondly, our manufacturers, trad
ers, bankers, insurance and shipping
circles are required to make concerted
efforts for, maintaining the market
which was developed abroad for Jap
anese merchandise during the war per
iod. The loss of the commercial field
acquired by the efforts' of our traders
and manufacturers since the great war
would -bo tantamount to the loss of
japan's national dignity and prestige."

The Man Who Was Never Late
(One who is late Is always tho loser).
Once upon a time In-the Kingdom
of N'cver-There, thoro lived a man
called On time. This man,' through
his labor, had amassed a considerable
fortune, but the people . didn't like
him because ho was so energetic and
they were so lazy. Their country was
gradually going to ruin because the
people wore so shiftless and idle.
Tho king of this land was Idleness
XIV. He was lazier than the people.
Therefore, when On Time began to
got. wealthy the king decided to have
him punished. .
The land next u Never-There wan
a, very industrious country called
Never-Late. Its king was a goodly
appearing King, but he was as had
as Idleness XIV. He had a daughter
named Punctuality, who was the fair
est jnalden in the kingdom.
On Time soon had to flee for his
ll . because tho king was going to
execute him. Ho finally reached the
land of Never-Litte and found the
people rebelling against their king,
because he had. been discovered.
On-Timo was walking through tMe
streets of Work Well- when he saw
Princess .Puncutallty being taken to
a dungeon. .He fell In love with her
and determined to rescue -her.
..Ho came to .the dungeon that night
and filed the bars through so the
Princess could get out. They were
pufsued but ho had brought two swift
horses to 'ride nnd they soon outdis
tanced the guards. They kept on until
they reached Delightful-Laud. There
ho ,,wooed tho Princess : and married
her."' . ' ' . .. . ...,;.'
Tho peoples' king had just, died so
they chose On Time for' their king.
So you see it pay's to'be on time be
caUso soino other man' -would have
been' BOloctcd If On-Time had been
late. .:':.,.
