The score might have been even blgher If the local shots had not frequently rolled off the rim for no tally. The game was rough and fast, with the Medford offense clicking neatly, to draw away so that the score stood 13-3 at half time. Lumen, for Medford, was almost uncanny on hla short shots, taking perfect assists from his team mates. to drop the ball through to score IB markers, high point for Medford and the game, but only one ahead of the 14 chalked up by Burdln for the Cavemen, who, obviously enough, carried the "burdln" for arants Pass.

QUINTS AT LAST COUGARS GOGGIN HITS 69 ID TO LEAD CALJENTE FIELD AQUA CAUENTE, Mex., Peb. 0. (AP) Out of the challenging ranks came Willie Gog gin with a rush to day to thoot his way Into the lead aa he posted a par-blistering 69 In the mud for a 315 total at the three quarters post of the Agua Callente $5000 golf aweepstakes. The tall, rugged, 37-year-old pro of Sharp Park municipal course, San Francisco, failed, however, to turn in the parl-mutuel winning round ol the day. This privilege went to John Re volt a, Milwaukee, who was sinking his putts from far and wide again today, to take a 68, three under par. He was worth the very tidy sum of $63.20 on $3 tickets on a day of such spirited betting that the "take" was almost as big aa that of the first two days together $016. Revolts' fine disdain of the try ing playing conditions on the flooded fairways apd slow greens put him Into a tie for second place with Henry Plcard, Hershey, Pa., and Ky Laffoon, Chicago, at 216, one stroke back of the northern California Irish man. The pressure of front running told on Wlffy Cox, defending champion, today. After hitting par on the first two rounds, he slipped to a sad 76 putting him In a three-way tie for seventh place. LOOT VALUELESS EUGENE, Ore., Feb. 0. (AP) In an appeal to some culprit's pride. Colonel Bill Hayward. Oregon track coach, gave public notice that articles stolen from his office weren't worth much to the taker. The following notice was Inserted by Coach Hnyward In the Oregon Daily Emerald today: Notice to all crooks concerned: The party or parties who broke Into my office earlier this week and took three stop watches and a starter's gun can derive no possible benefit from their underhanded move. "The watches, besides having my name on them, are known every where. The pistol is chambered for 32-callher shells, but has an .80 caliber barrel and therefore wouldn't shoot exactly straight. "Either return these articles Im mediately or come back and get the only watch which X have left, as one will do me no good." AIRPLANE PILOT Another Medford businessman haa become air-minded, Olen Fabrlck of the American Laundry having taken hla first aoto flight yesterday In the Waco "F" plane of Instructor Fuller Arney, at the local airport after only 6 hours and 15 minutes of lnstruc tlon. Fabrlck was an apt pupil, accord lng to Arney, for the usual amount of instruction required for solo flights is from 8 to 10 hours. He started taking Instructions last sum mer, but only during the past tew months has he devoted his time steadily to the lessons. Arney gives regular flying lnstruc tlona at the municipal airport, and has several pupils now taking les sons, although Fabrlck la the first one to go up alone. Li LOS ANOELES.

Heated practice seasons are being held each day under tbe aklllful coaching of Manager Russ Brown. Something new In basketball Is about to appear on the Medford courts, or any other court as far as that Is concerned, for It seems to be the Idea of the Champions to revert to several of their favorite foot ball plays In dropping the pill Into the basket. Seriously speaking, a flying wedge has been experimented with and, If it clicks in actual play aa It doea In practice, the superiority of the Cham pions will be little disputed. Fear has evidently done 1U work, for only four Independent teama bave accept ed the challenge Issued by tbe husky Champions. Games are being dickered for with Sams Valley, Phoenix .and Talent, although no reply has been received as yet. The four games scheduled are: Headquarters Company. CCC: St. Mary'a high school, Butte Falla town team, and the Prospect town- team. The power and speed of this team Is not to be sniffed at, for they have some of the best material turned out by the Medford high school In the Inst two years. Leo Ohelardl, Keith Estes, Ronald Baker, Bob Hlnman. Don Setuart, Joe Pierce, Burdy Kin drey and Big BUI Bates all play im portant roles In the lineup. Ronald Baker, 180-pound guard, both In foot ball and basketball. Buffered severe ankle Injuries In practice play, but will be back In the middle of play shortly. Fear Is expressed for the large num ber of fouls being called on the Cham pions. In a practice game with one of the CCO outfits. Bob Hlnman had 11 fouls chalked up against him. Fans will bave little chance to see this team In action on the local floor. Negotiations with the Tiger Cubs fell through, because of the Champions' dexterity and size.

HON AI IT WAS LINCOLN, wasn't it, who gave us that epigram about fooling some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time? Times have changed. Some people, today, can't be fooled at all. They are the ones who buy thoughtfully and spend wisely. They are guided by the most up-to-the-minute news about products, prices and values. They read the advertisements in the daily .paper. Whether you're marketing for tonight's dinner, for a refrigerator or for a home the most reliable guides are printed right here in this paper for you. Make it a habit to shop at home, by newspaper, before you set out. It saves time . . . saves tiresome searching . . . and it saves real money. 3 PORT SLANTS Brother acts in aporta probably never were a great rarity but Just at present they seem more numerous than ever. There is hardly a cnem pion' who does not have a brother or two trying to share a bit of the lime light he attracts. There Is Max Baer and bis huge young brother Buddy. They are even touring the country together, appear ing on the same ring programs. The Dean boys, Jerome and Paul or. If you prefer the vernacmar, Dizzy and Daffy headline In baseball. Paul Wan?r, of the Pittsburgh Pirates, won the National league batting title last year playing alongside his younger brother, Lloyd. OUn Dutra, the open golf champ Ion, has a golfing brother,. Mortle. There are seven Turnesa brothers, all fine golfers. Polo offers the Guest brothers, Winston and Raymond. The three Spence boys Walter. Wallace and Leonard make up a great swimming trio. Milton and Walter Singer, who played football at Syracuse last fall, go most brother acts one better they are twins. Name any sport you will, and you can very likely dig up at least one pair of famous brothers. One might naturally expect the "kid" brother to rise to the greater heights, having the opportunity to benefit by the experience of the el' der. But such is seldom the case. Beating the long, hard path to a sports championship seems to bring out the necessary qualities and de velop them to the highest degree. The younger brother generally fol HOTEL MANX SAN FRANCISCO at (He MANX ' HARVEY M. TOV, MANAGING. OWNER EST D! lows the alresdy beaten path, It's quicker and easier. Too often the glamor oi tne -pioneer" brother's success la what at tracts the younger lads to the sport rather than any burning desire to excel In It. I don't believe the brother who li second in line gets quite the thrills the first to travel enjoys. After all, It s the battle on the way up that af fords most of the fun. The cham pionship generally seems empty, once attained. Tha younger brother li spared much and often misses the real Joy of a battle well fought. Nothing magnifies the deeds of a champion the way time does. Per haps that Is the reason It Is so diffi cult to match the record of hla pred ecessor. For color and ability, the Dean brothers are about the leading pair. Mike Gonzales, coach of the St. Louis Cardinals, recently expressed the opinion that Paul would never reach the heights Dizzy scaled. Mike had both in his pitching "class," so he ought to know. Physically, Paul Is every bit as well equipped aa Dizzy btit he cannot match him In control and baseball sense. Dizzy la the venturesome soul, Paul is content to follow his lead. Aa to the future, Gonzales think Dizzy will continue to set the stand ard for the Dean family. Paul will always remain the "kid" brother. The Baers are much the same; Buddy hasn't the natural enthusiasm for fighting that Max enjoys. Max loves the game, and all the excite ment, glamor and crowds that goes with It. It takes more than physical equipment and knowledge to lift an athlete above the crowd It takes that vital spark, often the very thing that attracted him to the sport in the first place.
