Occasionally a golfer will play a match for 5 pounds (2S at par), and for 50 pounds or more (250 at par), but these are usually contests between professionals of International stand ing. The universal bet on British tfolf course is "the ball." This means a new ball on the round, or. sometimes I on each hole. Actually. In money, It means two shillings and sixpence, for although the price of balls has now dropped to two shillings, the bet still stands at "half a crown." EDEN PRECINCT, March 9. (Spl.)

MAny from this precinct have been attending the .tabernacle meeting of the Advent church In Medford. being conducted by the Venden brothers. It was a tough night for, a couple of Johnny Bull's nevvies on Mack LI Hard's double main event wrestling card at the Armory last night. Lea Grimes, Australian nipper dropped a one-fall decision to Les Wolfe and his rolling scissors In their one-hour tussle, which wound up In a free-for-all melee between Grimes, Wolfe and Referee Rocky Brooks. Jack Ko gut, 'Vancouver, bowed to Charlie Hanson, In the first half of the bill when the Seattle Swede clamped on a Boston crab and punished the Ca nadian so severely he could not con tinue the bout. Wolfe and Grimes put on a nlp-and-tuck affair, with neither man having any particular advantage, until Wolfe got his opening and pinned Grimes with his pet hold. The fall came after 45 minutes. Grimes came back strong for the second fall, but failed to even the match In the remaining IS minutes. With but a few minutes to go the Australian elected to rest and planted himself In the center of the ring with a "turtle defense." In trying to pry Grimes out of his shell, Wolfe fell victim to a figure-four and was on the verge of having his shoulders rubbed in resin when the gong ended the bout. Grimes then put on his show of temperament, demanding that the match continue. When Referee Brooks raised Wolfe's hand the Australian aimed a punch at the victor's chin. Brooks chipped in and the three put on a merry little mix-up in the ring. There was no policeman handy to intervene, but the combatants decided to call it day before any damage wab done. The big crowd thoroughly , enjoyed the "chaser." Csgey Charlie Hanson refused to trlve Jack Kntut a chance to try his Sonnenberg. and won his match in 20 minutes. The fall came when Hanson smacked Kngiit with a rabbit punch and applied a Boston crab Hanson refused to loosen his hold after Kogut patted the mat, and be fore Brooks could pry him off the Canadian's back had dealt out so much punishment Kogut could, not return to the ring for the second fall. A pair of novices, high school boyB from Ashland and Grants Pass, put on a three-round curtain raiser. The boys were willing, but neither could win a fall. The bout was a draw. Rocky Brooks refereed all three bouts, and kept the gladiators well In hand. John Sceley, 18-year-old school boy of Bakersfleld. Col., constructed a vio lin an inch and a half long which can be played. According to Hal Halght, Medford baseball majordomo. a meeting of representatives of southern Oregon and northern California cities will be held shortly, at which plans for formation of a new six-team leaaue, to play a regular schedule of games this summer, will be discussed. Med ford. Grants Pass and Klamath Falls In 'Oregon, and Weed, Yreka and Dunsmulr, California, are said to be Interested. Halght, who piloted the Medford Rogues last year, will again be fore man of Medford's entry, and is "sold' on the idea. He pointed out that last year's team, under adverse con ditions, not only completed Its sched ule in the valley league, but brought some of tne best barnstorming out fits, in the game to Medford, Includ ing the House of David and the Col ored Giants nines. "Sure, I think it will go." said Halght. "There's plenty of talent here for a gcod semi-pro team. Give Med ford fans a live, hustling team that plays to win all the time, and they'll turn out for the games. And that'; what we Intend to do If this league gets going. We're going to try to play the kind of ball that keeps the customers in the stands until the last man's out in the ninth that's what brings em back again." In any event, Halght said, the Rogues will be reorganized and strengthened this year. In the way of new material, an effort is being made to sign Jack Hughes, local right-hander who pitched for Grants Pass last year, and lines are also out for a couple of good hitters and a first-class left-handed pitcher.
