as- he came alono without a guard.
fost people here would not trust him
nf:ir ns you can throw a bull by
the tall."
j-'Be a real sportsman. There Is
morp honor In giving tho game a
nqunw deal than in getting tho limit.
i -'.Make sure It's a buck. If you can't
see his horns sho hasn't got any."
. This Is from a list of hnlf a dozen

One Medford fighter won a bout
and another local fighter lost one In
tho big boxing exhibition at Klam
ath Falls last (Saturday night, re
garding which tho Klamath Falls
Horn Id nays In part:
" 'Wildcat' Welly lived up to h.H
namo nt Scandinavian hall last night
when ho poll Hh oil off Sid Herbert In
the eighth round of a scheduled 10
round go. Herbert's right jaw wan
broken and ho frilled to come out for
the ninth. Tho bout was a lively one,
but Herbert did not nppear up to the
excellent form ho displayed in bin
last bout here.
Joo Walters was helpless before
the attack of Jack Harmon, the local
favorite, who added to his string of
victories when tho bout was stopped
In the third, Walters was not in Har
mon's class."
Y. M. C. A Notes
The ninth and tenth games In the
Y C. C. A. league schedulo will be
played this evening nt the Y. M. C. A.
ball on North Riverside In the
first the North Mothodlsts will meet
the Baptists and In the second the
South M. E.s will face the Presby
terians. With the advent of warmer
weather this old hall will be more
comfortable for both players and
spectators than it has been on some
game nights.
Mr. II. P. Jcwott of Central Point,
qulto well and favorably known here
as an official, will referee tho two
games. The first Is called tor 7:15
p. m.
It Is probable that a church team
from Central Point will apply for ad
mission into the league for the sec
ond hnlf of the schedule, as it Is cer
tain that tho I'nton church there
would be able to put out such a team.
If such application is mado the mat
ter must come up before a league
board meeting for consideration.
Jacksonville church has also discuss
ed tho matter. If theso out of town
teams aro not nblo to enter Imme
diately tho leaguo will look forward
to tho baseball schedulo as a depart
ment of sport In which they could be
Included. It Is tho ambition of the
county Y. M. C. A. to cover the coun
ty of Jackson with a permanent ath
letic leaguo of this nsturo. Indoor
and outdoor basoball, swimming, ten
nis, as well as basketball are entirely
feasible. I'crhapal tho rather wide
Interest In tho time honored gamo of
"horseshoes" might be crystallzed

ball already enjoys Inlcr-elty contests
