This left Medford with two regular
players Tommy White and Max Oa
llnsky.. The ousted youths painted
their school letters on a barn roof,
which gave the Lithians a techni
cality, upon which to hang a pro
test. The barn painting Itself was a
protest a protest against Ashland's
refusal to agree on a referee, for the

weight boxer of the Naval academy,
has all the potential ability neces
sary to become the world's champion.
in the opinion or H. M. (Spike) Webb,
Navy's veteran coach.
Cutter, fighting hi third year at
the academy, has not lost a bout
'during that time, although he ws
held to a draw In a fight last year.
Webb, who handled Gene Tunney
during the World war before he rose
to championship heights, declared
Cutter is a better prospect than Tun-:
the
ney when he was fighting In
Marines.
"Tunney becima champion." Webb
said. "When I handled him In 1918
he didn't have half as much on the
ball u Cutter.
"Cutter Is 35 pounds heavier, he
punches harder with both hands and
he can take punishment, potentially
he haa everything that's needed."
"Do you think Cutter could beit
earner?" Webb was asked.
"Sure," the Navy mentor replied
with a smile. "He could do that
now."

LOS ANGELES, March 9. (fr)
Washington's fast-moving basketball
quintet, seeking the Pacific Cotwt

ently, and that is, crash through
Southern California's stubborn man-for-man

LONDON (UP) Gambling on golf
matches Is practically non-existent in
Brit la.
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."

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.
Although the first regular workout
is not scheduled until Sunday, March
18, a number of candidates for places
on the squad will limber up At the
