Oeorge Gore, who broke Into big league baseball under the great "Pop''
Anson at Chicago In 1878, regards with disdain a "mitt" ol the type worn
by present day outfielders. 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!

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.

ITS END GREAT
BASKETBALL YEAR
(By Billy Hulen.)
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.
In sinking free throws with 47, leads
In that division.

v it irk i i
at TODAY'S
PRICES,then
THAT "Prices Are Rising" is a fact backed by
stock shortages all along the line from retailer
to manufacturer. And there is a shortage of "sup
plies' in most homes as well. Operating on a lim
ited budget people have used the old things until
they simply can't be used any more.
If the things you and your family use are giving out,
if your reserve supplies are running low, now is the
time to stock-up . . . now, before the rising market
catches you napping and you are" forced to pay far
more for things you simply must have. Medford
shops have never shown more attractive merchant ,
dise and have never offered greater values!
And here is another tip: you'll find that the best
way to obtain full advantage of today's prices is to
watch carefully the ads that appear in the Mail Tri
