ISAACS Tournament Chairman , Weather conditions were Ideal for Southern Oregon's Diamond Jubllw fly casting tournament which took place at the new pool In Bear creek Sunday, June 3. A large and enthu siastic crowd lined the banks of the stream, not to mention the many who witnessed the different events from the bridge. Southern Oregon's first fly casting tournament was a great success and the participants were thrilled beyond their expectation and considerable Interest was expressed in th? form ing of a local casting club. The per formances of local casters exceeded all expectations In the distance and accuracy events, particularly bo when we consider none of our local boys had ever before participated In a fly casting tournament. While the writer has been receiving congratluatlons for winning the distance and wet fly ac curacy events, the splendid work of several of the other casters must not be overlooked. Henry Prlngle exhibited good form in the dry fly event, Class B, in which he excelled by taking first prize with a per cent of 87. His timing was good and he performed like a master. Bert oblit wu second with a score of 82 per cent. His work was smooth and graceful and he display ed ability. The surprise of the day was Au brey Norrls, who was second in the fly event, Class B, with an average of 04 2-3 feet for the three best casts. He showed unusual form and hand led his line like a veteran. Otto DeJarnett, third In this event, sprung a surprise on his friends by finishing the event with a distance average of 88 2-8 feet. Keep up the good work, Otto. Gaston Sturdevant. who finished in second place In the wet fly accuracy, Class B, made a good showing and looked like a comer. ray Diamond, In the -ounce plug accuracy event, also gave good ac count of himself and finished third. Fay demonstrated he Is no novice with the plugs. Many of the boys were handicapped by lack of proper tackle, but, regard less, made a good showing and ex hibited good sportsmanship In co operating -to make the tournament the success It was. The judges Mike Herman, Etna Carr and Frank Ovelman and Ref eree Charles A. Anderson of Port land, rendered splendid service and their decisions were highly satisfac tory. They were untiring in their extorts to make the tournament a. success. Much credit It due to Hubbard Bros., Lamport!, At Plche, The Tog gery, Mann's Department Store, M. M. Department Store, J. G. Penney, Montgomery Ward & Co. and Gates Aj Lydlard for the prizes donated, and for all others who so graciously aided in boosting the tournament by their untiring assistance. And to the Mall Tribune for its splendid publicity. Much appreciation la also extended to A. O. Soderberg and the Boy Scouts, who gave their services In behalf of the tournament, and Floyd Jenkins, who donated a large sign card. A great deal of credit should be extended the Portland boys for their assistance In staging the contest, more especially Wm, O. Block and Ohas. A. Anderson, president and sec retary, respectively, of the Portland Fly Casting club. 1 ,1M In a hotly contested game the Le gion Juniors took a 11 to 7 defeat at the hands of the fast Jacksonville high school team Monday. Hess pitch ed a nice game f or ' Jacksdnvllle, but the Legion started hitting him toward the last, although they couldn't over come the Jacksonville lead. Lewis, on the Legion. team, got a three-base hit with bases full. Cobs made the star catch of the game, coming In from deep center field to catch John son's Texas leaguer at his shoe tops.

PIN OPPONENTS IN JUBILEE GRAPPLE Ted (Ring Kong) Cox, "prima donna" of the grunt and grimace game, talked himself out of a possible victory over Charlie Hanson of Seattle In their main event muscle mangling match at the armory last night, losing the odd fall to Hanson. Cox took the first tumble in 18 minutes with a body prees, after softening the Se attleite with elbow smacks. Hansen came back strong and flattened the giant Cox in 17 minutes with -a body slam, after a period of slam-bang wrestling that had the fans In frenzy. Both behemoths worked hard in efforts to take the deciding fall and Cox again had Hanson In a bad way from rough usage, but made the mis take of turning his back on the Dane to argue with Referee Ray Frisbte. Hanson was upon his foe like a flash and pinned him with a body press In eight minutes. Ted Thye, bid maestro of the mat art, went after the belligerent Pete Belcaatro to take two out of three falls In a thoroughly workmanlike manner. Pete was willing, but lacked the weight and experience of the Portland grappler. Belcastro annexed the first fall in 22 minutes by applying a roll ing scissors. Thye returned to Jar the Italian's back teeth with a series 'of shoulder butts and roughing, cli maxing the treatment with a body press in 19 minutes. The Portlander butted Belcastro through the ropes for the third fall In 11 minutes. General Chairman Jerry Jerome of the Diamond Jubilee lost the only fall In the farce match between "Spec" O'Donnell, 112-pound motion picture actor, here visiting the Jubilee, and Bob (Man Mountain) Burns, 240 pound Medford restauranteur, when ths gladiators Joined forces to flat ten Jerome, who had climbed lnt6 the ring to act aa referee.
