Tho Ashland team kept tho lead Until
U minutes before the close of the

At this point everyone in tho largo

cheering and yells of the crowd, was
deafening. For the last 1J minutes
tho game was neck and neck and nt
"tie time Ashland secured a 4-pclnt
lead over the red and black. About
two minutes before the final gun tho
score stood, Ashland S3, Medford 34,
Medford made one goal, placing the
sicore at 36-35 ia her favor and during
the several remaining momenta
guarded closely and prevented Ash
land from scoring. At the crack of
Ue final gun, Medford mipporters
lapsed from a state of tense hope to

The firxt exhibition of team work

The girls' game was as interesting
aa tho last two have been and was as
rough and hard fought as usual. Med

OBITUARY
A telegram has been received hero
by the Oregon Growers. Cooperative
association dlbtrict headnuartois from
Senator Chns. U McNary statliiK that
during tho next shipping season the
department of ngricultmv will detail
an expert her to investigate and over
see the packing and shipping of pears
and New town tipples wi-tippetl in a now
oil (iiHr, which it is claimed will pre
serve the fruit, preventing Its sweat-J
ing, etc., and w ill get it to its shipping
destination ill belter condition than
heretofore.
Tho sella lor's telegram also Btated
that another investigator will bo sent
by the department to Rosoburg to look
into the broccoli situation there during
the shipping season.
For a long time past efforts have
been made by the fruit association
and puper manufacturers to discover a
more satisfactory wrapper for fruit
than has been in use, to prevent decay.
The ordinary sulphide paper w hich has
heretofore been In use is not satisfac
tory. It is now thought that they have Just
tho thing in the oiled wraps mentioned
above, and it is for the purpose of ox-IH-rluienUtion
here next shipping sea
son that an exiert will be detailed
here.
Investigations in the uss of oiled
wraps for apple packing conducted at
Wenatchee have met with very favor
able results. KvperinienU huve shown
that scald is eliminated and tho keep
ing quality Is greatly prolonged. The
results of on Investigation, it is expect
ed, will mean a great saving in loin

SEATTLE, Mar. 10. When the liner
Keystone State docks here late this
afternoon on her return voyage t- the
Far East, Seattle will get back its
mayor, the customs authorities art
expected to have a ten months old
camel on their hands for lispoal, and
tho longest trip ever undertaken by a

will have been brought to a successful
conclusion. ,

Caldwell will be welcomed here today
jas he conies down the gangplank from

rROVlDEXt'K. XL 1. Mar. 10. (Hy
Associated Press.) -The Rhode Inland
, textile strike now closing Its seventh
week' has 'developed. Into a war of at
trition. This is the opinion expressed
today by reiiresentativea of both manu
facturers and workers.
-We will fight it out on tbew- lines
if it take all summer," said William
If. Ix-rrick of tho Amalgamated Tei-tilo-
Workers, head of the strike organ
isation in the Pawtaxet valloy where
more than one-third of the ly.'W oper
atives idle in the state are ordinarily
employed. Derrick announced his ob
jective t he a ii botir wtiok. ,nt reduc-
jtlon in Wage and no dlrciituination
against strikers returning to' wofk. '
Derrick claims that the l'awtauxet
I valley strikers can carry on indefinite
;ly without work. Seven soup kitchens
in as many mill villages feed thou
sands of strikers daily.
Contributions continue to come in
steadily from Hie outside, bo pajs.
Representatives of the mill owners
responded that the expensen of t lie
free soup kitehous were threo time
the income of the strike fund daily,
that hangers-on were being fed while
legitimate workers in many caws w ere
'not and that only a small group de
sired to enter on a fight to tho finish
with the mills. Many they said, want
ed to go to work again but were afraid
of the "bludgeon and blackli.it."
