MEDFORD, OREGON. TUESDAY, MAY 24, 1932. Welcoming committee of Medford' EUu lodge wu yesterday afternoon cheated out of the opportunity of escorting George Alpers In the of ficial Ska convention car, when memberi of the brotherhood in Orants Pass sent a misleading tele gram to the Medford temple. When the local greetera were about to "take off" for Orants Pass to do their escorting, Mr. Alpers arrived in Medford. driving the purple and white car, surrounded by shouting Cavemen. Although chagrined, the Medford Elks were courteous to their "guests," and entertained them royally. The official welcome of Medford lodge No. 1168, was extended "Mr. Al pers at the local temple immediately following his arrival, after which the party journeyed to the Jackson hotel for an Informal banquet. Members of the Orants Pass dele gation were Robert L. Jones, Dick Belden. John P. Heln, Charles Her ron. W Stock well, E. M. McKetston and T. H. El sera, the latter being the Elks' Chink (attired accordingly). Mr. Alpers was released to -the Med ford club by the Grants Pass Elks, with Joe Fllegel, local exalted ruler, making a brief address In behalf of the Medford temple. The driver of the good-will car ex pressed his Impressions of the Rogue River valley, and stated that he plan ned to return some time to fish in Rogue river. Mr. Alpers' home Is in Elizabeth, N. J. An Invitation from the president of the board of trustees of "A Cen tury of Progress," International ex position in Chicago, to the Medford lodge was also presented by the representative. Before leaving for Eureka, Cal., this morning. Mr. Alpers made official calls at the Armstrong Motor com pany, for service to his Studebaker car. and also to the Smith-Wat kins service station, local Firestone shop, on South Riverside avenue. The committee in charge of the welcome was E. C. "Jerry" Jerome, chairman, O. O. Alenderfer and E. C, Ferguson. Exalted Ruler Fllegel accompanied Mr. Alpers on his trip about Med ford this morning. LOCAL ANGLERS HAUL IN THREE A thrilling morning st Savage Rapids' dam was reported today noon by Dr. B. B. Elliott, Dr. J. P. Bray and Aubrey Bray upon their return from the Rogue. Dr. Elliott wu the first person at the dam to land a fish this morning. He brought In 33-pound salmon shortly after 6 o'clock. Dr. Bray caught two, one weighing 30 pounds, the other 30. The big thrill of the day was realized when toe three local fisher. men watched the eight-year old son of "Pop" Popklns, fishing guide from Orants Pass, land s 35-pound fish. Seated In his father's boat, be went through many contortions, battling with the fish, which was ' finally brought Into the boat with toe aid of "Pop." Into a fellow fisherman's boat a large salmon leaped by bis own choloe and the sportsman, of English descent, threw him back Into the river, declaring "I prefer to catch them." When the Medford anglers left the river he was stlU without fish. Blacks Arrive Enroute North On Fishing Trip Capt and Mrs. c. N.

The Dally Tidings had already decided, but had not announced, that It would not support Wm. t. Phtpps, If he was elected, which is also conceded. Thus, as far as we are concern -sd, please figure out who we will nip port. Ashland Tidtnps. E- ELECT ?
