HIGH SCHOOL 10
HAVE SUPERIOR
ATHLETIC FIELD
Steel Mesh Fence and Hedge
to Enclose Area Turf
Field Will Be Well Drained
SERA Doing Work
On of the most ambitious pln
for an athletic field ever attempted
In the state 1 being worked out by
E. H. Hedrlck, superintendent of Med
ford schools, and the achol board.
The athletic field at the Senior high
achool, grading of which la now com
plete, will be without queatlon among
the finest on the Pacific coaat when
the plans are completed.
Medford. with a achool program that
has been for yeara the eny of every
chool In the state, haa always lent
an eye to beauty as well aa to utility
In the construction of new buildings.
Now that attitude la being applied to
the athletic field.
Plan llfrtce Fence.
Not content with the ugly board
fence that la an Inevitable port of
every high achool football field, plana
are going forward to Inatall a ateel
mesh fence around the football field
and track. The ateel posts, placed 10
feet part, are already In, Imbedded
flrmely In concrete. To these posts
a temporary board fence has been ae
cured. The plan Is to plant a thorny.
Impenetrable and beautiful hedge,
possibly of Osage orange or haw
thorns, a few feet Inside thla fence.
When the hedge has grown to suffic
ient height and density, the boards
will be taken down and the steel
mesh fence, with a guardrail; .will be
Installed.
The hedge will be kept trimmed
and neat at all times, 'to a height of
from eight to 10 feet. At present It
Is planned to have this hedge only
around the football field, but when
It haa been proven a auoceas, as It
. .cannot fall to be, the system will be
continued around the entire athletic
field, encompassing the baseball dia
mond, the tennis courta, the volley
ball and aoccer ball fields as well as
the football and track department.
Invrslgnte Hedges.
Coach Bill Bowerman, now In Cali
fornia, la Investigating the various
kinds of plants suitable for the hedge
desired, and Is also Inquiring Into the
best kind of grass for a turf field.
The present practice field will be con
verted to turf aa soon as possible,
according to present plana. If "he
turf Is not sufficiently solid by the
fall season for regular play, a saw
dust practice field will be installed,
and games played at VanScoyoo field
A call haa been sent out for lum
ter for the Immediate construction of
a grandstand, with a seating capacity
of 1200. Thla grandstand will be on
the west side of the field, and flank
ing It on each end wtll be bleRchera
seating about 800 more. Since the
lumber atrlke haa placed lumber In
the higher price bracketa, thla phase
of the development may be deferred
for some time, but will probably be
completed before September.
Under the grandstand will be stor
age rooms for athletic equipment, and
dressing rooms for home and visiting
teams. Room will be set aalde for
ehowere. but these will not be In
stalled for some time. The Incon
venience of dressing in one building,
and then traveling by auto to the
scene of the game will be done away
with entirely.
lllenchers Installed.
Two large bleachers hsve already
been Installed at the baseball dia
mond, painted grey on the outside.

ready In use at the Junior high
achool grounds, Medford will be aa
well equipped with tennis facilities
as any town of Its size In the country.
All of the work on the entire proj
ect la being furnished by the gov
ernment, and the only expense the
school district will have to bear will
be that for lumber.
In building the football field, the
surface was equipped with draln.ige
facilities. Dltchca above the tile

with dirt, as Is the usual custom,
were filled with gravel raked off the
baseball field by the SERA laborers,
assuring that the field will be In good
condition at all times.
IIiinIiipsr Men Aid.
Medford business men, advised of
the plan, have been wholehearted In
their support. Rawles Moore, who eug
gested the use of Osage orange lr
tne hedge, Is one of the men who
have been helpful to Hedrlck In his
plans. There are many more who
have given time and consideration to
completion of the program.

After Only Day in Train
ingGood Fortune Fails
to Change Character
By EDWARD 1. NKll.
Associated Press Sports Writer
NEW YORK, June 21. (API No
story of the life of Jamea J. Braddock
la complete without the tale of Corn
Orlffln of Georgia, who came from no
where, went right back there, and
left the foundation of a new heavy
weight dynasty In his wake.
Braddock waa working on the Jer
sey docks, his fighting career appar
ently behind him, when Orlffln, a
heavyweight purchased from Uncle
Sam'a army for $68. came north to
help Prlmo Camera train for his
heavyweight title defense against Max
Bacr. Orlffln beat Camera so easily
In workouts that he became some
thing of a sensation.
Two nights before the champion
ship enrd Just a year ago Braddock's
manager, Joe Oould, called.
Tmlned One Duy
"I got you a fight with a guy
named Corn Muffins," he shouted.
"Oet yourself right in training."
Braddock quit hlo Job. trained one
day. Orlffln knocked him down with
a right hand in the second round
I JlmIny 8ot right up and flattened
Corn three times,
"I never hit anybody bo hard In
my life." Braddock said.
Quolcl embraced him In the empty
dreswlng room as Baer was tearing
Camera down, winning the title he
was to lose a year later to this same
Braddock.
"Joe, If I could do that on hash,
what do you think I could do with a
couple of steaks under my belt"
"We'll see," yelled Gould. They
cashed Jim's check for $250, and the
comeback was on.
Knilureri Long Walt
They sat together on the hard
benches , outside Jimmy Johnston's
offices In Madison Square Garden for
weeks, waiting, hoping for another
fight. It didn't come until fall, when
Braddock got a 10-round match with
John Henry Lewis, crack nepro light
heavyweight. Jimmy won a close one.
From then on he never stopped
yelling for more fights. Finally they
needed someone for Art Lasky. Jimmy
got the chance. So last winter, a
1-to-Vshot as usual, he methodically
plastered Laaky all over the Garden
ring.
Jimmy paid back the $300 the gov-
ernment gave him on relief out of the
$4100 he got for the victory. The
state Athletic commission named him
foremost chnllenger whon, by another
freak of luck, Max Schmcllng knock
ed out the foremost challenger, Steve
Hamas, and then decided not to cross
the ocean for the title chance at
Baer.
SMI) Sume linnlclock
Stevedore days had broadened,
strengthened, steled Braddock for the
great test. Ho went into the ring at
10 to 1, and licked tho magnificent
Baer by sherr doggedness more than
anything else.
He's still the same Braddock. and
he'd carry your golf sticks tomorrow
and think nothing of It If he liked
you. His debts are paid, there's a
trust fund started for the youngsters.
Young Jay and Howard are going to
Yale, Rose Marie to Vassar.
As some wag rightly remarked,
they should send Baer along with
Rose Marie to hold the daisy chain.

FOR ONLY FALL
CLEAN, FAST BOUT
Limber-legged tea Wolfe, slithering
and slipping like a Texas cyclone all
over the Armory arena last night to
skin out of the sturdy embraces of
Joe Hubka of Nebraska time and time
again, flashed a bottom-up rolling
scissors after 42 minutes of wrestling
to pin Hubka for the only fall of their
one-hour tussle, although the husky
Cornhusker outpointed Wolfe from
start to finish. Old-time fans nodded
their heads and said It was one of
the best matches they had ever seen.
Not a finger was lifted In foul play,
but that didn't mean that the match
lacked dynamite. On the stroke of
the gong Wolfe and Hubka came out
of their corners like greyhounds down
the home stretch, and set a pace that
kept the fans guessing which one
would drop from exhaustion before
the bout was over.
The Nebraskan, who grinned at the
way the eel-like Texan oozed out of
his crunching leg-holds, started the
fracas with a siege of wrist locks,
working Into a spectacular Indian
deathlock that looked like curtains
for the supple southerner until he
dived through Hubka's legs to escape
Wolfe broke away occasionally for
some clever footwork of his own. but
he was decidedly out-wrestled and the
rolling scissors that gave him the fall
came as a surprise.
The Cornhusker opened the second
stanza with a punishing body scis
tsors and soon had Wolfe gasping for
breath and very nearly down, but
they rolled Into the ropes and Joe
lost the only chance to tie the score.
Hubka was booked at 202 and Wolfe
at 19 Hi pounds.
Al Stecher, former middleweight
champion of Canada, now a 190
pound muscler of no mean ability,
who substituted for Johnny Soos of
Indiana In the 45-mlnut semi-final,
because of an Injury received by the
middle-westerner, slapped out a two-out-of-three
fall victory over Babe
Smolinski, 202-pound toughy who
calls Poland his native land.
Stecher, who retaliated for every
eye gouge and kick from the stocky
Polack, proved that he was no sissy
by winning the first fall in 13 min
utes and the last in less than one
minute via slugging and ham
iocks. smollnslk took the middle Min
nie in eignt minutes with an alrolane
spin.
Johnny MoWood. 312-nonnrt
footballer from U. C. L. A., put on
his best performance here to date in
the 30-mlnute opener when he out
wrestled Herman Olson. Swedish en

YALE CREWS WIN
FIRST TWO RACES
BY TINY MARGIN
REGATTA COURSE, New London.
Conn., June 21. (P) Yale swept both
morning races of Its 73rd annual re
gatta with Harvard on the Thames to
day, winning the freshman race by
eight feet and the Junior varsity by
little more than Btx feet.
So close were the two races that
official timers gave the two Yale crews
only a 2-5 of a second margin In each.
Yale's time for the freshman race
was nine minutes, 46 seconds; Har
vard's, 9:46 2-5.
Neither winning time challenged
the course records. ,
It was the most exciting morning
program in the history of Yale-Harvard
rowing rivalry, which dates back
to 1852. .
The Ella captured the two-mile up
stream freshman race with a mag
nificent sprint finish after Harvard
had led practically all the way from
the starts to within a few yards of
the finish line.
The Junior varsity engagement,
rowed over the same course, was even
closer, but In this case Yale gained
a lead In the first few hundred yards
and held it all the way to the finish
at Bartlett's Cove.
It was the second successive year
in which Yale captured both morn
ing races.
Heading the spectators was Presi

The climax of the regatta, the four
