By Mary McKoiulroc. J
An assembly was held In the high'
rt hool auditorium this morning as
ih result of much afritaliun on the
-.rt of the seniors and Juniors. i
Veils of "we want auRCinbly" and
we wont: Conkle" went up at 9,
olock ln view of the recent
vi,try over Salem, Mr. Conkle called
n aHHembly. Speeches were given
ir Mr Conkle. Prink CulHuon and
ihe memliera of the team. Mr. Con
kit, said In part: 'In the lattt ten
venni I've seen many football tram a.
j've seen California stage some very.
Biiertacular Barnes, and I've seen the
1-nlvprnity of Oregon stupe equally
3;. fipertaculur ones, but In all tho
tt;ini' of eitner nign Rcnooi or col
lege, I've never seen a better Ame
nor a bettor brand of football than
wfiH put up Saturday on Van Scoyoc
Held by our -football squad. We
ail feel the same about our team,
and us a result of this game we feel
we have a just claim to the state
cliMmploiwhlp of Oregon."
Mr. Callison said in part: "It's
funny to hear all this of course It's
nil very nice. It makes me wonder
sometimes there are difficulties out
1 here In practice, the fellows some
times take a change in heurt in
fiirt I think that at some time or
oiIht that they all have thought that
I wus the last friend that they ever
Miuld have. It takes real men to go
llu-ough the practice that those boys
jrTit through. But not all of the
'1 edit goes to the first string men.
Mi j n ci vmi. in huh 11 it; men u
went out at every game, dressed in
foulbnll togs and sat on the bench.
Kvevy night those men went out to
i,ntitice and went through the same
practice that the others did. It
Hikes some , Doys to go out every
night and play the scrub, sometlmo
these boys will he on a first team.
They may not make it their first
year, or maybe their second Or third.
nd barring accidents these boys will
make a first string. And credit goes
too, to the Medford high school stu-
Icnt body who were behind tho team
km well all season."
The members of the team seemed
til to be of tho same opinion that
.rink" Callison deserved all the
' redlt, for it was he that made them
light and it. was he that coached
them, and taught them how to play
lontuuii. That'-, the' 'game Inst Sat
urday was a hard one is admitted
by all, and the boys seemed all to
be of the opinion that tho old Med
ford fight was all that saved thenj
nd as Clarence Dimn and Bernard

jnto them. - j

WAR THEATRE IN
SYRIA RESEMBLES
BEIRUT. Syria. Doc. 7. (A.P.)
The main theater of the opci-atiim? In
the Di-iimo I'oliAlHrin fiifiiL.-t tho.
In Syria Is southern lielmnon, In a
country which Americans have found
strikingly similar topographically to
southern California.
Looking toward Los Angeles from
tho foothills of Riverside and tvn
over Mount San Bernardino to the
desert and the Colorado river Is much
like crossing the slopes of the Leban
ons to the plain of Merjelum and then
over Mount Mormon to the desert and.
the Euphrates river.
Like California's San Bernardino,
the mountain of the transfiguration
separates the Dcbejel Druses in the
east from Srla's riverside plain or
southern Lebanon on the west. The
rebel area extends from the desert
across Mount Hennon -to Merjeium,
watered by the sources of the Jordan
In the west, a territory 100 miles long
and fifty miles wide.
The principal fighting Is In and
around the obtuse angle formed by tho
town of Hasbelya at the apex and fif
teen miles from the towns of Jedideh
and Hasbelya, which are 25 miles
apart at the base.
By the capture of Hasbelya after
three days' bombardment, the French
now ocupy all three points of this
triungle. Their objective Is to en
velope large Druse forces within this
area which still has many exits. -
The French has 7000 troops Tor
these operations, and the Druses have
less than 5000. The French forces,
composed of Frenchmen, Algerians
and Se'ngulese are equipped with ri
fles, artillery, airplanes and tanks and
In addition have picturesque Spnhls.
cavalry from Algeria. The Drjse
equipment consists of study little
Arabian horses, a few captured ma
chine guns, rifles, revolvers, long
curved knives and spears.
Today the Druses are distributed
within this area and outslfte of It be
tween Hasbelya and Mount Hermon.
Tomorrow, owing to their superior
mobility and daring the Druses may
suddenly appear In other localities. '
In this war of movement, which has
none of the characteristics of the
trenc hwarfare of the World war. the
French are obliged to employ forces
considerably superior In nu mber
against an enemy superior in mobll-.
ity. "The Druse tactics are to draw
the French into the difficult hills for
hand to hand fightingin which they
excel. In the open country they nre
no match for modern weapons. The
total Druse force is less than 1000.
In addition to those In the Hasbelya
region of Djobel Druse 11 few bands
are operating outside of Damascus
and atongr tho railroad to the north

UPSET BY
WASHINGTON. Dec. 7. (A. P.)
The Full-Doheny bribery Indictments
which were quashed several months
ago In the lower courts here, were
held to be valid today by the District
of Columbia court of appeals.
A plea in abatement, filed by for
mer Secretary Albert B. Fall, Edward
Li Doheny, oil magnate and his son,
Edward L. Doheny, which tho lower
court granted was overruled by Chief
Justice George E. Martin on motion
of the government's special oil coun
cil, Atlee Pomerene and M. J. Rob
erts. Two indictments were covered by
the court's decision, one charging
Full with receiving a bribe' of 100,
000 to Influence his official action re
specting certain oil leases and (he
thcr charging the Dohenys with giv
ing the bribe.
The nppellate court held the act of
congress taking the prosecution of
the oil cases out of the hands of the
department of justice meant only to
deprive the attorney general of
charge and control of the litigation
arid did not interfere with the right
of the special counsel to make use of
t he assistance of district attorneys.
The defense had argued the presence
in the grand Jury room of Oliver C.
Pagan, a special assistant to the at
torney general, violated the sanctity
of the proceedings and nullified the
indictments. This view was accepted
In the lower courts.
