At the Holly street diamond last

.wiselmH, 12 to G, In a six-Inning,
ten me, which waa called In the first
half of the seventh on account of ,
rain, It was a loosely played same
with numerous errors chalked up to
both Bides. Oliver pitched a stellar
game for Copco, having the Tribune
boys under control at all times,
umfcie runs by Hal Miller and Oliver,
an well as a long two-base drive
over the left field fenco by King1,
which would, have been a home run,

At the Kiwanis .club Monday Mr.
Foster of the land department of
the Portland chamber of commerce,
made a talk on auto camps and said
the camps are either one of the
largest assets or one of the greatest
liabilities of communities, depending
on the conditions around the camp
and the attention given the tourists
by the people of the communities.
"Three of the best camps in Ore
gon are at Medfordt Ashland, and
Grants Pass and they are nil big as
sets," said Mr. Foster. "Every day
now there are from 3 00 to 150
visitors in the Medford camp. This
will increase daily ' and last year
the attendance reached more than
CO, 000. Everyone should make it
their business to extend a welcome
to all tourists and offer ony infor
mation they can, he said.
Paul McDonald told of the nota
ble success of the annual Kiwanis
party at Jackson Hoi Springs. Col.
C. G. Tbomson told of his trip to
California and the Craters quartette
rendered several numbers.
C. C. Cate received the attendance
prize, "a greenback," given by G.
W. Conner,
Emil Mohr, naked to make a talk
in "the flood," responded in his
usual witty way, and Incidentally got
in a few licks for the Holly street
site.
Raymond Reter of California was
a guest of the club.
At the invitation of Harry Tom-
linson", manager of the Medford Ice
& Storage company, the Kiwanlans
Irove to the plant, were shown thru
and many expressed surprise at the
ignitude of the same.
The company has recently com
pleted Its new storage house.

eMail,,
Hotel Medford Monday evening, and
the principal talk wtm made by Wal
ter Merrick of Merrick's Motor Inn,
on what the tourist traffic has been to
Medford ami what the prospects ii'
this year. Ho told of the printing of
40.000 eight -page papers issued by
their company, assisted by the Cham
ber of Commerce and some business
men, nnd of the thorough way these
papers will be distributed to practi
cally every tourist entering Medford
from north and south.
He said most of the tourists travel
ing now are from long distances and
they have already had as high as SO
cars in one night, a big Increase over
this time last year. Tho tourists visit-
in Medford last year numbered abfttt
'.000, and this year should increase
35 to 40 per cent, Mr. Merrick said.
The merchants decided to close all
day Saturday, May 30, Decoration
day, and nil day Saturday, July 4th.
Although it seems a disappoint men t
to some to close stores on Saturday,
the merchants looked at it from a
patriotic standpoint.
The repairing of pavement on Main
street and puvlng Third street from
Oakdale to Riverside, North Ivy and
other streets was discussed and it was
decided the president should appoint
a committee to look into the advisa
bility of the same.
It was decided not to put on u
Fourth of July celebration In Med
ford. i
G. Scott, the motorcycle man and
Geo. A. Hunt wye luk in as new

point a committee to look aftor tho
strangers who visit M'Word, and to
furnish all information they can,
especially to those of moderate
means who are looking after loca
tions. . . d

The Old High School Building
CANNOT BE USED
As a
JUNIOR HIGH
241 N. Fir St.
Phono 97
BECAUSE
1. There would be more pupils in it than there are in
it now.
2. Younger children would have to pass through the
business section.
3. It would require an additional teaching staff.
4. Additional laboratories and equipment would be
necessary.
5. It is not fair to the boys and girls now in the eighth
grade to hold them out of high school activities
next year.
6. 1 The wonderful "Medford High School Spirit"
would be crushed.
7. The Junior High school should be adjacent to the
senior high to operate properly.
THE P. AND E. SITE Can Best Be Used in
Connection with the old High
School Building!
