EL ACCEPTS
CHALLENGE TO
MEET SCHNEiDAU
A wire received Just bcrore press
time from Mike Yokel accepting the
challenge of Gus Schneldau for a
wrestling match here Friday night at
the Armory, cinches a championship
match for southern Oregon. Yokel,
the well known Wyoming mat man
and holder of the Police Gazette light
heavyweight championship belt, tan
gles with Ted Thye at Portland this
evening. The "wrestling sheriff" has
already victories over Tom Ray and
Ralph Hand to his credit during this
trip to the coast.
Schneldau, when Informed that his
match with Yokel would bo arranged
for Friday, expressed the belief that
ho would throw the Wyoming title hold
er. "Yokel is a tough man," says
Schneldau, "but I am confident that
I can turn the trick next Friday night.
Yokel will come here in tip top
shape for the match and seems to be
sure that he can eliminate the south
ern Oregon contender. Both men are
heavy and cleeer and fans can expect
a rough and tumble two hours' enter
tainment if the match lasts that long.
Good preliminaries will introduce the
Yokol-Schneldau go and thore seems
to be every indication that the Christ
mas season smoker will be the best
yet.

FRESNO METHODS
OF DEVELOPMENT
ENTHUSE FOul
One of the best speeches ever heard
at a Forum luncheon was made at the
Chamber of Commerce luncheon at
tho Hotel Med ford' at noon today by
Guy IHonard, secretary of the Fresno
Chamber of Commerce and tho son
of Mr. and Mrs. S. L. Leonard of this
city.
Mr. Leonard told of the growth and
development of the Chamber of Com
merce in Fresno and compared it to
Medford, ns both cities are In much
tho same positions, being the centers
of agricultural and Intensely cultivnt
od valleys. He showed 'the Chamber
of Commerce of Fresno to be develop
ed Into four departments the agricul
tural, tourist development. Industrial
and social; and the greatest of these
and the one thnt receives 70 per cent
of the effort and money of the commu
nity Is the agricultural department,
because It Is on the farmer that the
prosperity of the country depends and
the increasing difficulty to keep the
farmers on thoir land and to make the
land produce proper wages and profits
makes this necessary. Therefore the
Chamber of Commerce devotes Its en
orgy to obtaining proper Irrigation,
cooperative markets and proper trans
portation, rural schools and fairs and
oven spends money on bands that
make farm llfo more enjoyable.
The tourist . development Is with
Fresno also of great Importance and
they soe to the development of high

ways, advertising their valley and the
providing of proper hotels and ac
commodations. In tills department
comes the national parks that are
great magnets to draw the people of
the east.
But the greatest factor of the de
velopment of Fresno has been over
coming the narrowness of scope and
purpose that seems to inhabit nil small
cities and the realizing thnt all bene-
fits tho surrounding cties and villages
benefits her also. Once this was real-
i?ed Fresno spent money establishing
a bureau of public speakers and-made!
efforts to overcome the prejudice that;
existed In all the surrounding towns
In tho valley and to benefit these,
towns all they could. So that now
Fresno Is the center of the fifteen
chambers of commerce of the valloy
and the membership of her own chnni-l
ber of commorce have rlaon from 375
to 2200.
Mr. Leonard's speech was such a-
sneeess that the applause lasted sev
eral minutes and he was kept talking
another half hour in response to tho
questions put to him.
Professor Reimer, head of the
Southern Oregon Experiment station
proposed a vote of thanks nnd praise
for tho talk.

WASHINGTON, Doc. 19. Henry
Ford's announcement In favor of
President Coolldfio furnished a double
barreled sensation to political circles
In the national capital. At tho White
House It was received with undls
gulsed satisfaction and It was said tho
president would send Mr. Ford n
personal telegram of thanks.
Among tho democrats there was an
evident conviction (hnt the air had
been cleared considerable with re
spect to the nomination of a demo
cratic presidential candidate In 1024.
Everywhere among tho old line
party lenders the feeling was that no
considerable Ford third party piove
ment seemed likely now.
The statement of Mr. Ford did not
co mo altogether as a surprise to those
active lii the promoting of Mr. Cool
id go's candidacy fur tho republican
nomination.
The manufacturer spent about half
an hour In conference with the presi
dent about a week ago and afterward
officials said their talk had been quite
satisfactory. No Intimation was given
at the time however, that the question
of .presidential candidates was dis
cussed. The conference took place
Just before the president delivered his
message to congress nnd It was
understood ho went over the general
outline or thy moatwgv with Ir Ford.
