Bill Bowerman, Ex Medford Star, Has Inside Track on Coach Job More than 7.500 pounds of grain from federal Inspection bureaus has been distributed along the Red river hetween Oklahoma and Texas for STAR WEBrOOT INFIELDERS STUDENTS, FANS LEATHER PUSHERS READY FOR ELKS COAST LEAGUE'S LIFE HOW THEY FI , jr-rjs X I A Ml 1 BOWLING HONORS IN INVASION OF EUREKA wild game reported starving. t vs. M J" AT DIR PAGE FOUR Word Selection Expected Soon by School Officials Many Applications On File Means Smaller Salary The race for coach at the Med ford high school la now rounding Into the home stretch, with Bill Bowerman, former local star. In the vanguard as far aa local sportsmen are con cerned. The selection will undoubt edly be made In the near future, with the school year rapidly drawing to a close. There are now 36 applications on file, from all points on the coast. Of these there are several of out standing ability, and the final selec tion is not yet "In the bag." Bower man, who visited this city Saturday, ha Indicated an Interest In the posi tion but jui yet has made no defi nite decision. If he accepts the position here, he will have to do so at a reduction In alary from his present one at Frank lin high school In Portland. Accord ing to Bowerman himself, however, the thing that Interests him In the Med ford system Is the extensive ath letic program thai has been estab lished here for training In the lower schools. That has been his chief In terest since his graduntlon from the University of Oregon. Extensive Program The athletic program, as outlined In the Medford school system, In cludes not only those who report for duty at the Senior high school, but those who have no chance, of mail ing the varsity team. Intra-murnl ports are the feature of the program, giving training to nearly 100 percent of the students, Instead of only about five percent as In most schools. A comprehensive scheme has been worked out to establish the major ports. Including track, In the grade schools, to give the younger students an Interest In those activities before they enter high school. Although Bowerman. at Franklin, has prospects for a championship team for two years, he may be willing to sacrifice thatadvantage for the advantages to be met here. According to coaching and offi ciating authorities In nearly every major school in Oregon. Medford Is the ideal spot for a young coach to make a reputation. Known all along the coast as a strong football and basketball city, any winning team here receives more than its share of publicity. It Is coruinly an estab lished fact no Medford coach ever "stands still." He either goes rapidly to the fore, or he drops out of sight In a short time. That is probably the reason that friends of Bowerman are so strongly urging him to npply for the position here. He Is a strong disciplinarian, at the same time being popular with the boys with whom he works. A canvas f opinion In the high school Indi cates that he la a strong favorite in that quarter. Bowerman received his training un der Clarence "noc' Spears, and Prink Cslllson, at Oregon. LITTLE STAYS !N lis A i -.! t F ! Ht,: T. W I T ST Xf " ST. ANNTTS-ON-THF-SFA. Kng .

IN NEW TALENT TO ADD STRENGTH Paul "noosler' Hoffnrd, manager of the Medford Rogues, today announc ed the acquisition of two new play ers, both from the Belllngham Nor mal school In Washington, Jrck Strickland and Jay Wei ton. The one that gives Hoffard extraordinary sat isfaction is Jack Strickland, huge right handed ehucker, echoes of whose name have already rrneh'd this district. Welton Is an outfielder. Strickland is a huue man. stand ing six feet two Inches, and with a fsst and tricky ball. Hoffard Is lay ing In as many ace pitchers as he can get his hands on, with Earl Scheely, scout for Boston, now In southern Oregon, with his eye upon "Specdhall" Thompson, 34 year' old pitching sensation who last Sunday allowed no hits and no runs for six Inntncs. Scheely has Indicated a dcMre tn take either Thompson or Earhart, the Ornnts Pass 21 -year-old star, back with him. He will have a chance to see both In action Sunday when the two teams meet at the new high school field here. Other southern Ore gon players under his critical eye are Courtney, Medford first sacker. and Hamrlckson, Grants Pass center fielder. Both Scheely and Ken Williams of Oranta Pass, also a "scout." have In dicated a desire to see the ' Speed -bnll" In anion, so Hoffard will start him Sunday. The new field at the Senior high school, while not yet completed, Is said to be the best in southern Ore gon. Before work Is finished It will have an InfMd as smooth as glass, and the outfield will not he pro scribed by any board fences. Hoffard stated. Whether by drMgn or coincidence, the four Mooney brothers of Nash ville, are named In alphabetical or der, their Initials being A. A., B. B., C. C. and D. D.

Twenty-one rounds of boxing and possibly a free-for-all melee will be on the card, and valley fight fans are standing by for one of the best fisticuff programs of the year. It was announced today that there will be no wrestling on the card, due to the fact that it has been Impossible to secure good talent, so the CCC district has been scoured for the best and fastest mit-pushers.
