high defeated Grants Pass something
like 29 to 16 on the Ashland high

feating the best teams In the outly
ing communities, is considered- a
threat to any team which meets up
with It and therefore receives rec

comparison in the race for District
8 championship. Including Med ford,
Ashland and Grants Pass, the win

WARLIKE SPIRIT WANTED
IN MAJOR LEAGUE GAMES
By ALAN f.OULD
AfiMiclalrd Prrss 8 port t? Editor
NEW YORK, Feb. 9. (AP) Major
league baseball Is due for some brisk,
If not actually warlike, action on the
diamonds this year, providing the
athletes carry out on the flejd with
them the conviction of their bosses,
the club owners, that the game needs
more aggressive playing spirit and
less fraternizing to attract Increased
public Interest.
No special call to arms has been
or will be squnded, but It Is a fact
that the magnates of the National
league has endorsed the Initiative al
ready taken by their chief executive,
John A. Heydlcr, In promoting more
inter-club rivalry, and that the
American league owners are of siml-!
lar mind. Hcydler voiced a warning
against too much fraternizing at the
outset of the 1933 season.
Short of rowdyism and actual
hand-to-hand conn let, playeri will
be urged to adopt U'ie attitude that
no favors are to be asked or com
radeship manifested, on or off the
playing field. Umpires, while not
having their disciplinary powers re
stricted In any way, will be Instruct
ed to turn their backs upon out
bursts of high dudgeon. In fact, It
will be quite all right with the mag
nates If new records are set for the
standing or running high dudgeon,
Specifically, here are some of t,he
things which club owners classify
under the heading of objectionable:
1. Fraternizing between rival play
ers around the batting cage during
pre -game practice.
3, Visits of players to the oppos
ing team's bench for purposes of
discussing engagements for the even
ing, Inquiring about the health of
each others family or debating Vie
merits of their golf games.
3. Manifestations of "old pal" stuff
between base runners and In fielders.
4. Public or private beer drinking
among players of rival teams, before
or after the ball games.
