SONS Play Crack Union Oil Team Here in Benefit Tilt Thursday E FOR LOCAL FANS Portland Outfit Eager to Avenge Previous Defeats Game Scheduled to Start at 7:30 P. M Wagner to Meet Italian Med ford basketball fans at laet have chance to see the flanhy Ash land Normal team In action without the bother of driving to the LIthta city, for the SONS are scheduled to meet the (ant breaking Union Oiler team from Portland at the high school gym here Thursday night Twice before the two tenma have met, with the HONS on the long end of the score In both encounters, the first game 35-20, and the next by the narrow aqueck of 33-30. Very little dilation, It uny, la needed on the merits of ilia Ashland squad, they having won something like 34 out of their last 30 starts, losing only by narrow margins to Oregon, one gnme out of four, and splitting a two game series with Chlco Stote last week-end. An effort Is being made to send the Normal squad to the national tournament In Denver this year, and a local committee, headed by Dr. E. R. Durno, and with A. H, Banwell, has secured the Union OH team to meet the SONS here to raise funds. , The same two teams will meet In Klamath Falls on Wednesday night for the same purpose. The Oilers are rated among the best on the coast, and are considered belter than the average college team, several such teams having dropped games to the Portland outfit already this year. They boast many ex-col lege stars, among whom are Howard Orelner. former Idaho star, R'.ilph Calrney of Washington. Jack Rob ertson of Oregon, and Buck O. ay son, Hkeet O'Connell, King Bailey, and Bob Thomas of Oregon Stata, besides other well known college, players, None of the aggregation have been out of school long, so thoy can hardly be considered as "has been." Although the Oilers were defeat ed twice earlier In Wit, season, It Is stated that they have made rapid progress, and are expected to give the Hobsonltcs a wild struggle when they tangle thin week. A group of Ashland Normal girls will be in Mtdforu some time before the game to canvass the city, selling tickets to the game, and a down town ticket office will be established, according to Durno. Admission prices will be low with special rate for Normal and high school students. In order not on conflict with the Elks boxing smoker or the wrestling matches at the armory, the game has been called for 7:30, allowing ample time for attendnnce at those other events, Durno stated. fi : '. him Jr '"I r 3 Van niignpr.

BY ASHL RECORD 10 DATE Friday night of this week will find the game that Medford and Ashland fans have been looking forward to, and talking about, since the first of the year, and In fact since the last of last year, when the Medford re serves scored a surprise win over the Grizzlies after the first team had been ousted from competition for barn painting activities. Such a reversal, at least accord lng to the rall-blrds. Is about all that can save the Medford hide this year, in view of the comparative rec- oraa or the two teams. But compara tive records are mere chaff before the wind when the Medford-Ashland feud cornea to a head. Comparative scores frequently deceive In any sport, as far as that goes, it being mere child's play to prove, by that means, that the team at the bottom of the heap Is umpty-steen points superior to the one on top. surprise wins invariably gum up the accur acy of the comparison system. And keeping surprise wins from entering into basketball life is a physical, and even a mental. Impossibility. Compartlve scores, taking the fact that Grants Pass defeated Medford, and Ashland walloped Grants Pass, seems to prove that Ashland has all the advantage. But take the fact that in a later encounter, Medford wal loped Grants Pass decisively. Grants Pass walloped Klamath Falls, and Klamath Falls dropped two games to Ashland by margins of 7 and 8 points, and the comparison favors Medford. Bo nothing is proved by that method. Neither Is snythlng proved by the fact that Ashland Is already talking about "when we go to the tournament." although It has psychological effect of some kind when the locals overhear It, It is claimed. One of the questions Medford hopefuls ara asking is "will Medford be able to present anyone good enough to stop Hardy and Hoxle?" Some say that to atop those two, the Tigers will have to Ignore the other throe members of the quint, and that is apt to prove dangerous. Others say that Smith can stop them both without even breathing hard. This Is a bold claim, Inasmuch as no one has been able to do so yet this year. Others say that the game will be so rough no one will have a chance to do much scoring, unless they chuck them In rrom the mid dle of the floor. At any rate, the game should prove interesting, and will undoubt edly be the most thrilling of the season. If the Tigers spark like they did In the Grants Pass and Klam ath return games, they should win. If they don't. It may prove Just another basketball game. '3 IN PORTLAND. Ore., Feb. 19.

Feb. 19. (AP) With only three minor changes, the Nat ional football rules committee has approved of the sport as It Is played and for the first time in Its 30-year existence failed to adopt a major al teration. Following a three day session at Absecon, N. J., William S. Langford. secretary of the rules governing body, announced the committee had turn ed thumbs down on the msjorlty of tne proposed changes. One concession was made to the advocates of greater altitude for the passing attack. The so-called "dead ball" rule was qualified so a runner who Is on his feet even though held by an opponent, may run, pass or kick until the whistle is blown. "This." said the committee's state ment, "will glvo a runner who has been tackled but not thrown a great er opportunity to break away or make a pass, which will further encourage the open game." The other two alterations are de signed to cover technicalities In the existing rules. One clarifies tha rule governing the Interchanging of line men and backs by defining the posi tions of the center, guards and tack les as "those occupied by these play era when they originally entered the game, with the further provision that the field captain must designate, upon request of officials, which play ers actually are the linemen." The general rule under which fouls committed by both teams offset each other waa changed to Include the following exception: "should a punt ed ball be illegally touched (downed) and then there be a personal foul b opponents, the captain of the kick ing team may refuse the offsetting penalty. In such case the ball would belong to the receiving team at the spot where It was allegedly touched." sisWeTIintej to fight it out with eagle point for lead As the northern division conference in the county secondary high school basketball tournament draws Into t:ie final rounds, a check-UD on the standings reveals that the race Is be tween Sams Valley and Eagle Point, due to the fact that Butte Falls dis banded Its team as a disciplinary measure, and that Sams Valley beat Prospect. Should Sams Valley defeat Eagle Point In their forthcoming game, a play-off would be necessary, as the Cheesemakers won from the Sams Valley quintet earlier in the season. The dope points to Sams Valley, as that team has defeated every other opponent in the northern division. The playoff game would probably be held here on the Junior high school floor. The Cheeemal:ors have had more than their share of hard luck. Har- ! nlsh of the B team broke his arm Saturday and DeLelch of the A team broke his nose In the Prospect game.
