He was made of sterner stuff. NUTI.EY. N. J. (JP) Hale and hearty for all his 80 years, Oeorge Gore, who won the batting cham pionship of the National league In 1880 with an average of 366, Uvea In happy retirement here. .He recalls, among other things, when any player who thought of pro tectlng his hands with a glove woutd have been branded a sissy, and when a manager though .ho (Oore) hod suffered a sunstroke docsum he de manded an annual salary of 63,6001 "When I broke In with 'Pop' An son's Chicago team in 1878," he re counted, "the players didn't have the elaborate equipment they have to day. They could 'take It,' as you ssy nowadays. "I remember I asked A. O. Spalding for a salary or 83,600. He thought I was out of my head, but finally met my figure. You hardly cou'.d get a couple of first-class bat boys for thst price nowaways," he sighed. Oore played outfield for' Chicago for eight years, when he waa sold to the New York club of the National league. He was with the Olants In 1800, when the team received that nickname, he says, because of the unusual height of the players. He retired from the game In 1894. In addition to his hitting and fielding ability. Gore was one of the speed merchants of nla day. He re called that In a game against Provi dence In 1880 he stole seven bases. made five hits and rored six runs. "Only the catchers bad any sort tf protection when I began playing base ball with lumber teams near our home at Hartland. Maine." Oore said. "Tje catchers had a thin buckskin glove wit hthe fingers cut 'off that was all. However, he didn't have to stand directly behind the oatter, but off to one aide, and If the. batter missed the ball It would carom off the back stop and the coacher would retrieve It on ftret bounce." Gore recalls his amazement whon he was offered real money to play In the old New England league. That was In 1877, the last year of Presi dent Grant's second administration!

ROSAMOND WALL, Tel. 733-M TIGERS IN FORM FOR CLASH WITH E Burgher Taking No Chances On Ashland Bear Stories Injured and Sick Players Rivalry Is Intense With two of Ashland high school's forwards on. the sick list this week and the chances strong that they will not be able to get Into the conference game against Mcdford here Thursday night, and with the Tigers au in top condition, things looked more favor able for a Ttger win than they dia last week, f Brown has another shot of the flu, Coach Darwin Burgher said this morn ing, but will be in the lineup. In all iirobablllty. No Injuries were received by the players In the Klamath Palls Invasion, even though two aeieaw were received. The defeat by Chlloqutn didn't cut much Ice as far as Medford's strength Is concerned Conch Burgher said, be cause the second string played the entire game. The second team was used, Burgher said, because the floor was small and there were many ob structions along the sidelines, and he didn't want any of hta players hurt who were to go against Ashland Thursday. Opera Is Friday. The game, regularly scheduled for Friday, waa put up to Thursday be cause of the operetta to be on Fri day. The Ashland team- under Coach Don Faber, has been showing unex pected strength this year, and has not only defeated Klamath Falls twice. but defeated Grants Pass by a larger score than Medford did. Coach Bur gher has openly expressed his doubts about the Ashland game, with the declaration chat unless his men are In top form, that the outcome might not be too good. White, Luman, Harris, Scheel and Brown win likely be In the starting lineup Thursday for Medford. Bur gher said, with Qearhart, Hess, Hardy. Kanasto and Baughman for Ashland Willie Durham and Btllle Hoxle. regu lar Ashland forwards, are not expect ed to play, Durham with a bad foot and Hoxle with the flu. Suspect Dear Htorles. Medford's oldest fans, however, were skeptical about the injury story from Ashland, preferring to believe that Faber's story about his injured and disabled men Is Just so much "bear mt at." Faber, who is no mean bas ketball player himself, having played with the Willamette university, knows the tricks of the Bearcats, and has developed a team this year that stirpassed all expectations. Ashland won from Medford two years ago, Coach Burgher said, but Medford won last year. Recent bas ketball history between the two schools has been mostly In Medford's favor, and the Tigers are determined to keep It so. even though Coach Burgher can't feel too certain about it. 1 Salem High Wins From Chemawa CHEMAWA.

College basketball will fade from the southern Oregon sport picture Saturday at Ashland when Howard Hobson's Southern Oregon Normal Sons, end their 1933 campaign by clashing with Spec Feene's Willam ette University Bearcats In the sec ond of a two-game Miies, the first to be played Friday at Asbl&nd also. Both games the oelng played in Ashland, as the expense of staging the games in Medford has been found too great. After a season marked by victories over the best in the state. Hobson expecte the hardest rst of all for his giant Sons in this farewell series with the strongest team in the Northwest conference. Early In the season, the Sons bowed to Willamette. 36-40, and naturally want revenge for that beating, one of the four they have received all year. Further incentive for their desire to take both games Is the fact that no team has won a aeries from the Sons. Only by winning both games, can they keep intact that fine record. A hot battle is in progress between Wlllard Jones and Ward tow Howell for the individual wxtr.ng leadership of the team. Howell Is leading at present by six points, though Jones has caged more field goals. Jocklsn la the "bad boy" of ,he team, having committed S3 persona fouls. Howell.
