S. ill Coach Bill Bowerman of the Med ford high school Is giving his men an early season Work-out In the high school gym, deciding that the rocky expanse In the rear of the school, under process of conversion Into a practice field, is too difficult a place In which to cavort. The players will hold their last practice this week, most of them having Job In the fruit harvest which will force them to drop out. In the mean time, before practice starts In earnest In September, Bow erman will be busy contacting play ers and giving them a synopsis ot his system so that they will be fa miliar with the rules before the real work starts. In keeping with his previously announced policy of keeping his eye on the younger players In the lower grades, he Is anxious to get In touch with Junior high footballers as soon as possible. He announced a list ot those lads today. Including George Gates, Don Houson, Bob Verblck. Bob Wilson, Russel Warner, John Prentice, Glen Howard and Bud Zam erslaugh. These young men and an other Junior high aspirants, he asks to ct in touch with him at the senior high school gym any after noon between 3 and 4 :15 o'clock. The side door on the south la open at that time, he said. At the practice sessions now, the recruits are trying the Notre Dame shift, double shifts, signals, short and long pass technique, punting and blocking, and other funda mentals. ORGANIZED LABOR JOINS SALES TAX OPPOSITION ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.. Aug. 14. (AP) Opponents of the sales tax had orgnnlzed labor on their side today. The executive council of the Amer ican federation of Labor Instructed President William Oreen of the fed eration yesterday to urge affiliated state federations to work for repeal of the sales tax In any states which have It. Sport SLANTS h v Pan Come-backs In sports seem to be very much In order this year with almost every branch boasting a top notcher or two who has climbed the hard road back to the heights. To the Helen Wills Moodya. the Braddocks, the Groves, the Dlscov erys add the name of Ralph Flana gan. Flanagan, the 17-year old hlh school swlrrimer from Miami, Fla., took the mile and "880" champion ships, at the national A. A. U. swim ming meet In Detroit. He dethroned Jack Medlca of Seattle In both events to splash right back Into the Olym pic picture. In 1033 Flanagan scaled the heights by winning the mile and medley at the national champion ships In Ohlesgo; plsxilnj second by Inches In the "440" and "880 " Some little difficulty arose be tween Flanagan and his coach, Steve Forsyth, following which the young ster temporarily dropped out of the swimming picture for 1934. Last fall their differences vere patched up and they celebrated the reunion with a flock of new records. Flanagan's showing at the indoor championships In New York last win ter was rather disappointing al though at the time Forsyth declared that his protege would not be at his best until the outdoor meeting at De troit. The mentor certainly called the turn for Flanagan was at his peak when he beat Medlca. Going On Forever? The Detroit meet produced a flock of records in accordance with the usual procedure when a few swim ming stars are tossed Into a pool of clear water. nice clear water. Mlaml-BUtmore pool, lasting only three days. 27 American and world's records were broken by a compara tively small group of stars. Forty three world's records were broken last year by male swimmers In this country alone; women accounted for 33 more. It doesn't seem humanly possible that swimmers can go on Improving on their best previous efforts Indef initely there must be so.:ie limit to hurran endurance. What's the answer? technique and more efficient strokes being employed by our swimmers and coaches. Secondly, the training methods now being used put the swimmers In more perfect physical condition. Third, there Is a more equal distribution of the energy that has been gained by the Improved technique, making possible perfect breathing and relaxation and almost entirely eliminating all lost motion where so much energy is wasted. It's The Teiiilijue There are no super human beings of today any more than there were In the past. Therefore It la a certainty that the swimmers of today must get more efficiency our of their bodies than did our former champions In or der to top their records. It Is very true that competition is getting keener each year and that makes It necessary for the swimmer and the coach who hop to compote in national and International circles to strive for greater perfection. Until the 1932 Olympic games tn Los Angeles we In America looked on the so-called American crawl stroke as the fastest known means of pro pelling a human body through the water. It was a revelation to us when we saw swimming strokes that dif fered from our accepted Ideal yet were good enough to beat our best swimmers. Those Olympic games awakened American coaches to the realization that there was much to be learned by experimenting with their own Ideas and many dlsoverles have re sulted. There has been considerable progress tn the past three years the batch of new records bears that out well enough. 1 1 AT Bennett of Medford was elected presi dent of the association and Mrs. R. W. Roberts of Grants Pass secretary. Mr. Bennett's resignation at the close of the picnic automatically left C. H. Demaray of Grants Pass as president. Several musical numbers were giv en and all Joined In singing the Iowa Corn Song. Medford was represented by fifl peo ple and several were present from Los Angeles, Long Beach, Berkeley and Pasadena.

Mil leson and daughter, Miss Helen, Wtn terset, all being visitors In Grants Pass, and Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Chil dress of Des Moines, who were stop ping over Sunday while on a western tour and sought a welcome among home state people. The picnic will be held in Grants Pass again next year and the other 300 or more Iowans tn southern Ore gon should be loyal and enjoy the reunion also. Let us plan for a larger crowd next year. Grants Pass has an "Iowa club" composed of 50 former Iowa ladiea. who meet once each month lor a social time, and these ladies had an . active part In the plans for the day. j Stentor was one of the Greeks be fore Troy, whose "stentorian" voice was as loud as that of 50 men.
