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.

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

C. C. and D. D.

hard work.
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.
The Elks will turn the funds over
to "VI", who for many years hK
slapped the gong at the weekly
wrestling programs at the armory,
and Is well-liked in sporting circles
throughout the valley. ,

'I'm glad that you like the new drapes and interior finish of my home. I've paid
?r every bit of it by selling odds and ends of things I've stored away and never

robably have lots of things packed away that someone else can use. Why not
dvertise them in the Mail Tribune and have a little extra spending money.
Classified ads cost so little and I've always had splendid results. You can either
