fjOOVER first Undera to Roose
ll Teit his congratulations, which
have tho ring of sincerity, on the
.fine victory won by Roosevelt In the
election. Then he offers to Roose
velt his fullest co-operation In start
ing his administration off right.
Finally ho asks Roosevelt's aid In
tho solution of the Immediate prob
lems facing tho country. ,
Bportsmanlllte. broad-minded and
fair, in this writer's Judgment, and
characteristic of Hoover who Is a
bigger man than tho small vote he
received gives him credit for.
DROPPING from 'big things to lit
tle. "Ma" Kennedy says she Is
through with men.
: What she means Is that she Is
i .,' through with men until another old
fool comes along.
IK THE year ending October 31, tbe
California citrus Industry citrus
fruits are oranges, lemons and grape
fruit marketed 79,066 carloads of
fruit. Tho total return was 79,
000,000, or approximately ai.OOO a
ear.
' And this, remember. In a year
when marketing of any farm product
has been exceedingly difficult.
HOW was this tremendous accom
plishment made possible?
! There can be only one answer
1 by sound and Intelligent merchandis
ing. Seventy-nine thousand carloads
of fruit do not sell themselves.
Good salesmen got out and sold
them. T.ae California citrus fruit In
dustry Is successful because It Is able
to command tho services of good
salesmen.
T VERB Is a point' to remember:
QUALITY Is stressed constant
ly In tho marketing of California
oranges snd lemons. No poor fruit
Is ever permitted to go out under
the well-known brands.
If you have traveled through the
orange and lemon groves at tho pick
ing season, you have seen vast quan
tities of Inferior fruit offered at
roadside stands for those who wish
to come and buy.
The high quality product Is sent
away, and that which la not up to
Vie high standards set for market
able fruit Is kept st homo and dis
posed of In the best way that offers.
THERB Is a lesson In this for us
of Southern Oregon. If our out
standing products of the soil are to
bo sold successfully, at prices that
will In normal times yield a living
profit, we must see to It that our
standards of quality remain high
and rigid.
1 UST one other thought:
ADVERTISING plays a big part
In the marketing of the California
citrus crops. Through advertising,
people all over the world are made
familiar with the excellence of Cali
fornia oranges and lemons, and . the
desire to buy them Is planted in
people's minds.
Selling Is the business of advertis
ing, and In the case of the California
citrus crops advertising has done a
fine Job of selling.
It will do a fine Job of selling for
ANYONE who uses it right.
THE PORTLAND OREOONIAN, One
of the last of the old-Una strict
party allegiance papers, announced
the other day that hereafter It will
be Independent In Its views, leaning
by preference toward the Republican
a party, but not bound In any way by
Its policies, supporting sucn esnai
dates and Issues as In Its Independent
Judgment are best. a
That la an Intelligent decision. In
these days, people don't cars to know
.what an editor thinks he OUGHT to
think In order to be consistent with
a policy.
They want to know what he
REALLY DOES think.
rpHE EUGENE NEWS, commenting
on this change, says:
"Tho Oregonlan was probably no
llttls worried about the licking It
took (in tho election). It Is almost
as serious for a newspaper to lose a
major campaign as for a college
coach to lose a b game."

Fullback Swanson Ineligible,
Is Ruling All Games
Played Held Forfeited
Locals in Title Play
O. a. Smith, principal of the Med
ford high school, said this afternoon
that the Hood Rlver-Medford game
Saturday, was not definitely off, and
that the state high school board was
In session this afternoon to arrange
details, and "Iron out some of the
bumps" resulting from the declaring
of Tom Swanson of Hood River Ineli
gible. He said the state board was en
deavoring to adjust the matter as
soon as possible, and an early decision
was due.
The latest development In the high
school football situation came as a
surprise to all Medford.
PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 18. (P)
Tom Swanson, Hood River high
school fullback, was declared inelig
ible, and all football games in which
he played were declared forfeited, in
a ruling today by the Oregon State
High School Athletic association.
The board of control Issued the
following statement:
That Thomas Swanson was now In
his tenth semester in high school,
wherefore we find:
1. That Thomas Swanson Is here
by declared Ineligible for further
competition In high school athletics.
2. That all athletic contests for
the current school year In which
Thomas Swanson participated, while
representing Hood River high school,
are hereby declared forfeited.
I. That The Dalles -Hood River
contest of November , 193a, Is de
clared "no game.'
Dalles Files Protest.
-' The protest against the Hood River
player was filed by The Dalles from
where Swanson wz& transferred. The
board ruled that Swanson has com
pleted more terms In school than the
rules permit. Hood River, however.
Insisted that Swanson was played on
the basis of records received from
The Dalles.
With today's ruling, Hood River's
claim to the mythical state football
championship vanished, as did con
slderatton for a Thanksgiving day
game with Jefferson high here.
Locals In Title Piny.
Medford high school now is expect
ed to compete with the Jeff eleven
on Multnomah field on Thanksgiv
ing day.
Evidence presented by Irving Wiley,
The Dalles principal, showed that
Swanson had registered at The Dalles
for two semesters In 1026-27, and for
one semester In 1929-30. He Is now
in his seventh semester at Hood River.
The board of control made It clear
that It could offer no solution to the
problem of selecting an opponent here
for Jefferson on Thanksgiving day.
That rests between the Portland in
terscholastlo league, Medford and
Hood River.
Negotiations for the Thanksgiving
day game here were "up in the air'
again as a result of the board's nil
lng. Hopkln Jenkins, principal of
Jefferson high, host in the turkey
day classic here, was called Into the
conference at the Portland tiotel. He
awaited word from Charles Fry, sec
retary of tho Portland league, before
onerlng an opinion.
A Hood Rlver-Medford game now.
It seems, would prove nothing. La
Grande, with a game scheduled at
The Dalles Saturday, has Its hat In
the ring and may he considered.

Elmer Cole, 18. giving Portland as

Cole, a stocking salesman. Is al
leged to have swindled a number of

ley by the substitution of an infe

According to the state police, Cole's

Complaints were received when
some of tho alleged "gypped" women

Colo will probably be turned over
