KLAMATH 28 TO 21
tn a game bo rough that the referee
had to call time ' out to warn the
players, the l'lashy Ash land team Frl
day ntght defeated a grimly fighting
Klamath Falls outfit by the narrow
margin of 38-31.
Ashland led by a narrow margin
all through the game, and wu ma
terially aided by the entrance Into
the fray of Captain Rosa, who has
been absent from the squad most of
the week with flu.
Olovanlnl, Klamath captain-guard
was high point man for the Pelicans
and the game with nine markers
followed closely by Hardy, Ashland
center, with seven. The rent of the
scoring was rather divided among the
rest of the players.

throughout the game, the Medford

an earlier defeat by beating out
a decisive 34-17 win over the squad
from the climate city Friday night.
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.

uncanny on hla short shots, taking
perfect assists from his team mates.

PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 9. (AP)
Trusteea of Willamette university
looked with favor today on a sug
gestion by a group of Salem business
men that the athletic program at the
school be enlarged.
The Salem men suggested building
a new athletic grandstand double the
size of the present structure, which
seats 1,4000. The trustees referred
the suggestion to the executive com
mittee with authority to proceed with
the work when finances can be ar
ranged. Present facilities at the university,
used regularly by outside organisa
tions, are considered Inadequate for
the larger activity now planned. The
board also appropriated $1000 for Im
proving the campus. The money will
be spent under direction of the su

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."

BASKETBALL QUINT
(By John Snider)
Russ Brown's Champions, & basket
ball squad consisting of eight of 11
members of the Medford high school
football co-champtona, are beginning
to ahow rare form as far aa the art
of basketball playing I concerned.
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.

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.

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

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.
