GRANGE EMPHATIC HE MEANS TO QUIT Athough Palmbero, Oregon state College forward, slipped by Chuck Wagner, No. 17, University of Washington guard, to make thla basket, the Huskies put on enough steam to whip the Beavers for the first tlma of the season. Washington Is leading the baaketball race In the northern division of the Pacific Coast Conference. (Associated Press Photo) INT ASHLAND, Jan. 35. (Spl.) No game with Olson's Terrible Swedes next Monday night, la the announce ment Coach Howard Hobson brings back from Portland. Skirmishes with the A. A. U., In which the Sweden came out on the short end of the stick, have been re sponsible for the cancellation of the game. Amateur Athletic Union offic ials have proven that the traveling team la ot professional status, and that college or Independent teams who play them would lose their ama teur standings. Amateur cards and traveling cards, good only for at days of continuous moving about, must be carried by the barnstorming outfits, and the Swedes cannot conform with the re quirements. Hobby states that he and hla boya refused to Jeopardize their standing with the union by going through with the game. The big reason why Hobby Is ao particular .about his team's Simon pure character, la the possibility of an Invitation to the national A, A. U. basketball tournament In Denver In March. Correspondence between the Southern Oregon Normal and the tournament officials has Indicated that the Sons have an excellent chance to be chosen as one ct the 32 teams of the country to get the chance to enter the tourney. The recent conquest of the best hoop squads of Portland boosts the Sons' charces mightily, and they're not going to risk the taint of pro fessionalism by playing the Swedes or any other doubtful team. Hobby's mighty proud of his hoys after they licked Multnomah club. 54 to 32 Inst Saturday night, and Union Oil 35 to 20 on Monday and 33 to 30 on Tuesday night, although he said the Sons played "fairly good ball." He gave a fine tribute to the Oilers by saying thy formed the best Inde pendent team he had ever seen, with eight three-year varsity men from Oregon. Oregon State, Washington and Idaho.

FOR PORTLAND GAME ELKS FIGHT CARD FEATURED BY TWO TECHNICAL KAYOS In the second of a series of smok ers being held at the Elks club, two technical knockouts and three de cisions featured the continuance of the elimination contests of CCC tal cnt In the fight card Inst night. The scheduled three-round bout between Donovan of headquarters and Myerhoffer of Spring Flat stole the show from the standpoint of excite ment derived from many sudden trips to the canvas. Myerhoffer winning by a technical knockout In the third round. In the last and main event of the ca rd . Liner of Indian Creek won a close decision over Beal of headquar ters, the bout going the full three rounds. Both men were fast and hard hitters, but according to the Judges, Liner held the ede. The first knockout of the evening came In the first round of the Moreno-Buddy Jack go. Moreno shot several stiff rights to the midsection of Appleates fighter, sending him to the floor twice. The referee stop ped the fight, giving the honors to Moreno of Hilt. . In the second bout, Rosen of Hilt declsloned Butts of Carberry in a throe - round slugfest. with Butts mostly on the receiving end. The curtnln-ralscr saw Dunbar of head quarters displaying nice timing and precision to win a decision over Holly wood of Spring Flat. The flfiht card was officially open ed when citfi t men stepped Into the ring for a battle royal. Two colored boys seemed to be equally spent In strength and neither able to hurt the other, the honors going to a draw. The smoker snd feed was attended by a larger crowd cf Elks than at tended the first affair, many mem bers coining from Ashland and other nearby lodges.

The store, which has been In existence for several years, formerly being In charge of A. W. Mercer, serves the many residents of this remote section of the Applegate, and the reopening Is a welcomed accomplishment In the community. 4 Although there have been over 100 cases of smallpox reported in the state of Washington, there have been none so far in this county, according to county physician C. I. Drummond. In a statement made this morning. Doctor Drummond stated that while there Is little If any danger from that dread disease at the present time. It would be a wise move for those not yet vaccinated for smallpox to be treated at once. Many of the rural schools have already been vaccinated, and the rest will be in the near future. V The difference between the ras'ii of chicken pox, (several cases of which have been reported In the county), nnd a mild case of smallpox is saia to oe sngnt. All cases thought to be either chicken or smallpox should be reported immediately, the doctor said.' There is no great danger to be feared at the present time, but It is best to be on the snfe side, Drum mond pointed out.

It' the Best To Bn FOR ONLY FALL IN Sad Sam Let hers, tall Texas Br tip pler, probably saw the longest one minute of his life in the main event of the wrestling card last night at the armory, for he stuck It out for Just about that length of time flat on the mat with "Gentleman" Al Karaslck, Russia, cinching down on him with a Boston crab and thereby won the match, by virtue of the fact that he had obtained the first and only fall in S3 minutes. When the grapplera re-entered the ring for the last five minutes of the tussle, all Lethers had to do waa to keep his shoulders off the mat until the bell rang, but he found this pretty hard when Karaslck. with only one minute to go, applied the devas-. tating crab hold. The midget Rus sian, falling to get enough leverage on Sad Sam's "rubber" legs, was un able to mafce his big opponent pat the canvas, although Sam was badly crippled when the gong finally sounded. There was plenty of action and plenty of comedy in the match, which waa not only faster but more of a grind than the first time these two veterans met here, tugging and puffing to a draw. They wrestled on very nearly even terms during the first period, which ended when Um ber Sam secured a double arm bar on the midget and held htm on his back for the count. Karaslck, 190'4, displayed even more than his usual amount of en ergy, and Sad Sam, 208, also seem 3d in fine fettle. Judging from the way the two scampered and rolled obout, often ending up in comical tangles. One high light was a mlxup with the ropes that put Karaslck out of commission temporarily with his neck and arrrts well twisted up in the top two strands, after Lethers had tried to twirl him out of the ring. Only once did Sam secure his fa vorite rocking-chair scissors, but Kar aslck proved his stamina by resisting it for four minutes until he was able to crawl undar the ropes. Karaslck surprised the tall Texan nearly out of his boots when, reversing Sad Sam's own favorite trick, he actually stepped out of a wrlstlock. . Agreeing with Lethers that the bout was real work, Knraslck summed up his opposition afterwards with: "That man, he's be?g!' ' In a farce preliminary. Harry Kent,; 235-pound ex-Oregon State athlete. I won two straight falls on fouls fromj Tony Catalano, roughneck Italian, al though the latter could have taken both tumbles had he been satisfied with strnight wrestling. Each time he applied what would otherwlso have been a winning hold, the 219-pound meanlc supplemented tt with slugging and kicking. The first tumble ended in five minutes, shortly after Catalano connected a hard Jab to Kent's bread basket, and the second fall was over In six when Tony persisted with a choke hold. Ray Frisbie was arbiter in both matches. 4 . Twenty-five separate families of Smiths arc represented in the stu" 1 dent body at North Carolina, State college and the Browns and Johnsons are tied for second place with 17 each. For Greater Grocery Values Mail INVASION OF G. PASS II (By Dirk Applegate.) What probably will be a revamped Medford hiffh school basketball team will tangle tonight with the rapidly improving Grants Pass Cavemen. In the northern" city at 8 o'clock. Tie Burgher squad has been working madly all week to Iron out weak nesses In passing snd floor work, and extra stress has been put upon the completing of foul shots, to give the Tiger outfit a more lethal scoring attack. With the best material the Climate City has boasted In years, they en counter Medford tonight with the in tention of handing Burgher's charges a sound thumping If they can. natur ally, but the Tiger defense should put a decided crimp in those aspirations. A different attitude on the part of his charges has been promised by Burgher, and a possible shift of the starting lineup. A better feelliv? among the players Is being mani fested, ho said, and he expects to put the fastest scoring combination on the floor that he has shown to date. Tomorrow night, Saturday, Weed high will invade southern Oregon to take a crack at the Tiger pelt in a game starting at 9 o'clock, at the high school gym here. Weed lost a close game to Ashland recently, and reports indicate that they have e good team. While Luman and VanDyke will not be eligible for the game tonight, they will be for the Weed encounter, and Hinman and Steuart will see their last games for the Red and Black on Saturday, giving the Burg her meisters a full strength squad for the Weed game for the only time this year. The Medford squad has shown rapid Improvement In every game ao far this year, with the greatest strides forward having been taken during the past week. They seem to be pointing for the conference ames. and a!so hope to get every bit of advantageous practice from the non-conference tilts. Many local fans are planning on going to Grants Pass tonight, and the prospect of a fast game here to morrow assures a largo crowd. When the 1935 football season rolls around at Notre Dame it's almost a certainty that Coach Elmer La yd en will drill his charges on the Import ance of the point after touchdown. The Irish made 17 totichdowns Inst fall, but added only six extra points, and lost to Texas, 7-6. but the margin of the extra point.
