The Medford hlnh school live was
defeated lant night at Ashland on the
Ashland high school gym floor by the
Ashland qitlutct by a score of 4o-lS.
Mom of tho Medford boys played a
liard game, fighting from start to
tlnlan. The Medford baskntshootin
was both inaccurate and unlucky, and
but for tho defense and tho Rood
work of tho guards the score would
have gono much higher.
, Tho Ashland team had tho advan
tage of the floor and It seemed that
no maifer from what position the
111 V thrown, with one hand or
t, it fell through the basket. A
number of one-handed baskets were
mado by tho Ashland meu and sev
eral times the ball was merely bat
ter Into tho air and fell through the
hoop.
Few teams have defeated Ashland
on the homo floor tn the memory of
tnany basketball fans. Even when
Modford had the. best team in the
state some rive or six years apo that
team was defeated cn the Ashland
floor. Ashland supporters them
selves honestly admit that tho floor
is a decided advautago to the Red
and White quintet.
The Medford team has gained a
little confidence in Itself and seems
to bo waking up. Tonight's contest
at the Nat premises to be a battle
royal.
Tho Medford girls defeated Ihe
Ashland girls last night by a score
of 21-20 in or.o of the hardest fought
and most interesting girls' games
ever seen in this vicinity. The Ash
land girls gave the locals a real
fight from start tn finish and the out
come was doubtful till tho end.
The game became slightly rough for
a girls' game, but few fouls were
called.
Both boys and girls will play
again this eveniug at tho Nat. The
girla game will begin promptly at
7:30. Reserved seats are on sale at
Crowson's.

that "this year the elephants will all be

it has been learned the show will be
