KYNE TOMORROW RIALTO TOM MIX IS "UP AND GOINO" TONIGHT Tbe Medford high school basket ball team defeated tbe Rogue River team last Digit by a score of 35-11. The game was rather a poor exhibi tion, Albert Allen, Medford's sub center, who played most of tbe game in Baughman'i place, being the only Medford man who showed op well. Slngler played far below bis usual fine performance, missing many easy shots from beneath the basket which would have been sure scores In any other game he has played this sea son. Beeney played a steady game, shooting often and having what seem ed to be hard luck bouncing tbe ball all over tbe rim of tbe basket, but making less than a third of his shots Cbaataln and Williams presented an excellent defense but did not play their usual offensive game, Chastaln passing in an inferior manner com pared with bis previous performance this season. Beeney and Allen tied tor high point position with ten points each while Slngler scored eight. Allen's ten points came from three field baskets and four three throws while Bingler's and Beeney's scores were from field baskets alone. ' The first basket of tbe game was thrown by Banks, Rogue River for ward, from a point past tbe center of tbe floor. It was the only basket that be threw during tbe entire game, however. Butler, Rogue River cen ter, was high point man for Rogue River, with eight points, while Laws, forward, converted one foul out of ten shots, six personal fouls having been called on Medford players. Ten personals were called on Rogue River players and Allen con verted four while Baughman con verted one during the part ot the game while be played. Rogue River players were deficient tn their passing and were lost on the Nat. floor, being unable to work the ball up the floor satisfactorily against the Medford defense and be ing unable to get-the range of the basket when tbey did get tbe ball near it.

The Roseburg contest for tbe Southorn Oregon championship which will bo played at the Nat. Fri day night, la causing much conjec ture among local fans aDd tbe gen eral opinion is that it will bo any body's game. Especially do those who saw tho gamo at Roseburg. in which Medford won in tho last five minutes, feel this way. Klamath Falls has written local officials claiming the Southern Ore gon championship, saying that they havo played ten games tbts season without a defeat and bave challenged the local team. Tboir challenge was accepted by Coach Durno without hesitation, and a game with tbe Klamath cage artists is scheduled for next Monday night at the Nat. Scats for tho Roseburg game go on sale tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock at Crowson's and tbo enthusiasm of local fans assuros a. heavy advance sale. The gamo at RoReburg was ono of the most spectacular a Med ford team ever played and It Is safe to say that Friday night's contest will bo at least Interesting. .
