the outstanding player In the Port
land league.

bar, another Astoria forward, was
dropped to the second team In the

VALLEY BASEBALL
BACKERS EXPECT
IZE LEAGUE
Following the initial meeting last
week of valley baseball enthusiasts.
word has been sent out for a second
meeting Friday at 8 p.m., at the
Medford Chamber of Commerce when
it la hoped to form a four-team
league, drawing playing talent from
all towns in the region.
Among those notified to attend
the meeting Friday night at Al
Droulette, Grants Pasa; Hooeler Hof-
fard. Eagle Point; Charles Bkeeters,
Talent. Leonard Osborn. Jacfcn-
vllle; Jack Bearss. Ashland and Bud
Conlln. Medford. Louis "Scoop"
Puhl is acting as organiser for the
proposed league.
Experience has proved, according
to Puhl, that a good brand of ball
can be shown with strictly home
talent and It has also been shown,
he says, that a six-team league can
not find sufficient support for the
necessarily extensive schedule. How
ever. It Is felt that a four-team
league would be able to draw suf
ficient "gate" for a successful season.
Last season failed to produce
profits, mainly due to the fact that
several teams had to buy uniforms
and Improve playing grounds. Good
patronage was accorded whenever
games were staged In Eagle Point,
Jacksonville, Talent or Grants Pass,
while fans were chary in support
for games at Ashland and Medford.
This year there will be no neces
sity for buying expensive equipment.
and other expenses will be ugnter,
according to Puhl, who Is confident
that organization of a valley league
will be perfected Friday night.
