Tho, local basketball team defeated the Cottage Grovo high school basket ball tijnm In a fast game at the Nat. last night by a score or 3S-16. For the first few minutes the gnme was fairly vren and at the end of the first half the BCoTe was 20-13. . The visitors scored' only 3 points la the last half. Modford made numerous substitu tions while the visitors played tho sfttne five men all the way through. Hoferoe Wolff,-coach of athletics at the Grants Pass high school, ruled too strictly to suit the fans but did not slow the game down appreciably. Very little scrambling around after the ball wf done as Wolff blew the whistle und tossed tho ball up every time two men paused on the floor and began struggling, even for a second, for pos session of the ball. The game was clean and free from the usual amount of rough stuff. Medford's Btarswere Watson, Hudy Singler and Boughman who scored 13, 10 and 8 points respectively. None of the Modford men played the whole game. The; contest was witnessed by a large crowd which left the Nat. feeling optimlBtic as to the future of Mcdford basketball this season. Several fans were heard to say that they wore well pleased with the individual members of the team but that more teamwork was necessary If Medford had her eye on the state championship this year.

A committee of Bcvcn women from thu College Women's club spent t morning last week visiting thu Med ford high school. The purpose of this visit was to inspect tho crowded con dition ot tho present high srhoul building. Tho committee urges thul the parents of all studt-nts here visit the high school nnu Juoge for them selves. As everyone knows- tho building was erected in 11108 to accommodate about 250 pupils. Thu school has grown until the present enrollment Is 434, nearly twieo tho number sptx-1. fled. The basement has been eon verted into class rooms. On the south are the kltehen, sewing room, and fflrls dressing and rvst room. The Bein room and kltehen hove out sldo windows as well as radiators so the. floors can bo heated. Tho dress Inn room Is heated only by the .over. heud furnaee pipes, has artificial IlKht all day. and no outside ventlln tlon. Here Is tho phyalctil director's desk and ehnlr, her class room for II) months out of a year. The physi cal training work Itself is done aerons the street at tho Natatorlum. The north half of thu basement is used for manual tralninK. agriculture, nnd boys dressing room. Said dressing room is nuthing less than the fur nace room. The boys need not bo cold, even thouKh there Is neither outside ventilation nor light. Tho manual truilng desks arc near the north basement windows but tho machinery is in tho center hall where tho only light is electricity. Hero again is only overhead heat with no outHido ventilation. Tho largest class Is 28 boys. They aro entirely too crowded. Tho ngriculturo room has some windows for ventilation, but when the manunl training machinery Is In operation classes cannot recite. 1 Here again nearly 30 try to recite where there is room for less thnn 10. The boys' gymnasium work Is con ducted across the street at tho Natat orlum. Basements do not convert easily Into ideal class rooms. Tho assembly room on the first floor is very crowded. During tho assembly hour, 2 pupils sit In every seat. ,' Tho balcony is filled ' with undorclnssmen.- Hero again is lack of air and light for so many. . Win dows on the east give tho only light, and even on bright days the pupils under the' balcony study by electric light. Every Beat in this room Is somo pupil's -desk, but when that pupil goes to another class '-to recite somo one else must sit here. Even with every nvailablo space 'In the whole building equipped with desks thero are not seats enough. The library is a very small room with table space for about a dozen students to do ref erence work nt one time. ' A cloak room adjoining this - has been con verted Into racks to file books. . Upstairs tho chemistry and physics study room Is - airy v nough, but. Chemistry labratory Is Tar too small Across the hall one room alono boasts of conducting mechanical drawing, natural science nnd biology classes. Mechanical drawing tables fill most of tho space while the experiments are conducted In n cloak room where two or three of the 2S pupils of this department can work -at one time. With every room full of seats there aro not enough desks to assign one separately to each pupil. " So thore are shelves in the sewing room for these extra pupils to place their, books at tho close, of the session. ' Each teacher has a desk but Ibftcn no room of her own. This makes per sonal and consultation work very difficult. : Even the principal has three teachors' desks crowded into his little office. , ' Within two weeks B0 pupils grad uate from the grades whllo no stu dents will leave tho high school until June. What to do with-these new- freshmen becomes a very serious question. To hire a building means puylng out rent money. Tho rent of the Natatorlum' for gymnasium pur poses is already a thousand dollars a year. -While tho electric light bill alone is no mean-amount. - The de mand lor a now high school building is imperative.- To convert the pres ent building into a-1 Junior high by remodeling at moderate expense will relieve tho crowded condition at both Washington and Lincoln , grade schools .- This district Is permitted to issue bonds up to $2110.000. Tho average Indebtedness of other schools In dis tricts of the first clnss over tho state Is f 121.000. whllo that, of Modford Is Only 94,000 nnd will soon bo les sened. It would thus bo possiblS to Issue Additional bonds at present for about 9160,000.. This amount would construct a good sized high school building and earo for all, or nearly all tho departments. Tho above men tloncd amount can bo cared for with the Interest within 20 years by an ad ditlonnl levy of only 2V4 mills. The present levy for bonds and Intwrest Is more thnn 3 mills, nnd this will be discontinued at the end of six seven years when tho present bond ed debt will be cleared up. This would mean that the extra levy would be . needed for only this short time. Tho school board can call an elec tion, but tho bond must be voted by tho taxpayers. And fair minded, pro. gresslve patrons will hnve to see that tho necessary money l nt hand to erect a . now high school building. WASHINOTON. Jan. 18. The general level of wholesale prices In December showed no change from tho November average, although tho ten dency was upward, tho department of labor announced today.
