A return match between Sara Clap
ham, English light-heavyweight cham
pion, and Gus Schneidau of Medtord
has at last been secured by southern
Oregon promoters and fans here will
pee the Medford grappler attempt to
prove his contention that he can toss
the English boy. This match will be
held. next Wednesday evening in Gold
Hill at Martin Dowers pavillion, and It
should attract a number of fans, not
only from Medford, Ashland and Gold'
Hill but Grants Pass as well. A well
balanced card has been slated for Wed
nesday's smoker which will feature
both boxing and wrestling.
It seems that when Gus lost his
match a few weeks ago with Sam Clap
bam be was not In condition and ho
claims that under usual conditions he
can throw the husky Sammy. The
match at Gold Hill wilt afford Gus his
opportunity of showing the people that
ho was not in shape when he last met
Clapham. Gus Is buckling down to
real practice and road work so that he
'will be In tip top condition for Wed
nesday's fray.
; As s seml-wlndup, Chauncey Hooker
of Medford and nay lleuger of Ashland
will entertain with a six 3 minute
round, fight. At the smoker here
Tuesday night lleuger k. o'd the Med
ford boy and the return engagement
promises to bo mighty interesting,
neuger proved hlmsolf to he a good
scrapper and Chauncey will have to
BO some to win Wednesdny evening.
As a curtain raiser "Shorty" Con-1
rad will wrostlo "Frenchy" of Gold
Hill. "Shorty" has a formidable nn-i
tagonlst in the Gold Hill boy who has
bad the advantage of lots of Ralph
Hand's pointers. "Frenchy" has the
makings of a clever wrestler and will
be sure to make "Shorty" work hard.
JACKSON CO. BOY'S

When yesterday afternoon C. C
Cat uHkcd A. C. Allen if he and one
or two other relatives of Aubrey
Furry, the Jackson county baritone
singer, who won to sing last night in
the concert broudcasted from the
Portland Orcgonian office in Portland
could come to the Allen home and
listen to it over the fine radio set
there, ready acquiescence was given,
and Mr. Allen thought nothing more
of the matter.
The Allen family, however, slicked
up a bit and Jim Allen about the time
the two or three guests were expected
to come contracted his long legs so
that they could spread at ease In one
room and yet not interfere with the
visitors.
Then without warning the guests
began to come in twos, threes, fours
and dozens all tho Cutes, and the
I' urrya from Phoenix and other parts
of tho county until when fifty had
crowded In, the piling of the children
on the floor to fit in the odd spaces
was begun In anticipation of further
arrivals. At this juncture tho Allan
cat, which had been feeding on a milk
diet for months hurriedly went out
side to look up a bull dog.
There tho crowded assemblage snt
while they listened with awe as tho
radio picked up snatches of concerts
all over tho Pacific coast while wait
ing for the Portland concert to begin.
All of a sudden a sweet baritone voice
was neara singing.
"That b Obry." said Arthur Furry
of Phoenix, familiarly known as "Dad"
father of tho singer, "Sure it's Obry"
chorused the others after listening n
second or so. All listened In rapt
attention until the song was over.
Then came a most startling climax
when "Dad" Furry in his eagerness
and excitement, shouted Into the
radio, "la it raining up there, Obry?"

most interesting assemblies ever held
at tho Medford high school, tho Itov.
J. It. Sasnett yestorday gavo a forty
minute talk on J. Wilkes Itooth, tho
slayer of Lincoln, and his supposed
suicide,' Rav. Hasnett told the lately
developed theory that the man
tracked to a barn whoro ho killed him
self and. thought to bo Booth wan not
the real assassin, Uooth Is said to
have escaped, to havo lived In Houth
America and Mexico for a while until
he finally came to Oklahoma where he
committed suicide loavlng behind him
a complete confession, about five or
alx years ago.
This version In not tho one generally
aocepted, but In later years It has beon
coming more and more Into promi
nence. During all the years from Lin
coln's death till now stories havo per
sisted that' Wilkes llooth was never
captured.
' When the tnlk was finished tho
teachera and pupils asked questions
and discUHsed the story until the as
sembly which had begun at 10:30 had
stretched to the noon dismissal.
' "Such dUcusttinns nre excellent
training and an opportunity tn develop

Tho news Horn about the opening of
the second high school scmoster a
wook ago last Monday, published in the
Modford Hi Times, the publication of
tho student body, as follows, has at
tracted much attention:
"Tho second semostor of school op
ened Inst Monday. This is ruther lute
In comparison with otlior years, but It. J
Is due to tho fact that school opened
two weeks late lust semester. The
semester will not close until June 13 1
this year.
"There woro almost sixty new stu
dents enrolled ut tho beginning of this
week. These were mostly mld-yearl
rroshmen that have graduated from
the local grade schools. Among tho
uppor grades of the Incoming students
there are two post-graduates from tho
senior class of lust year. These are
Howan Gnle and Dorothy Rogers. Wo
are certuinly glnd to have them with
us again this somoster. With sixty
now students enrolled In Medford high
school, tho. total numbor Is brought up
to five hundrod. This Is nt least fifty
more than wore ovor boforo eurollod
In tho local high school.
"What to do with all these students
is n problem which must be solved by
Supt. A. G. Smith. Every year our
c-nrollpient Is increasing and every
year it is becoming more difficult to
make room for tho now studonts. Al
though thbre are a few vacant seats,
Mr. Smith says that the school will
have to order about an more desks.
ThPBe desks will havo to he crowded
Into tho roll rooms and class rooms.
It the enrollment Increases noxt year.
and no now high school Is built, the
school will bo forced to rent some
other building In ordor to make room
for all tho students. Lot us hope that
the votors of Medford will realize the
crowded conditions before It comos to
