Fast, Hard Battle Antici
pated by Locals Prelim
Between Medford-Ashland
Juniors Starts at 7:15
The Klamatb Fall! high school
basketball team, rangy and danger
oua, arrived In Medford this after
noon still smouldering from two
defeats at the hands of the Medford
Tlgera on the Pelican's own floor,
and ready to explode on the Medford
floor tonight. Accompanying (he
team was s large delegation of
Klamath rooters and the high school
band.
The Klamath squad has come for
ward rapidly since the Invasion by
Medford, and the locals are antici
pating a fast, bard battle. Coach
Bowerman has given his men a
stiff workout every night this week,
and has pronounced them In ex
cellent condition for the fray. Asked
what his team's chances are of
making It three straight against
the Pelicans, the coach replied: "I've
given up predicting basketball."
The preliminary struggle, which
Is scheduled to start at 7:15 an
hour before the main encounter, is
expected to be equally exciting, as
the fast Improving Medford Juniors
tangle with the Ashland Juniors
who slready hold one victory over
the locals. Harold Baughman, high
scoring Ashland forward out of the
earlier gams because of Illness, will
be In the starting lineup and Is ex
pected to be the spearhesd of the
Llthlan attack.
Ashland Is confident of a win In
the encounter, with Coach Ruse
Achlson of Medford equslly opti

high Tlgera meet the Grants Psss
Cavemen In Grants Pass for the las'

The lsst glimmering hope that the
Medford high school bssketbsll team
would nose out Ashland high down
the home stretch and represent this
district at the ststs tournament In
Salem, guttered and died entirely last
night as the Llthlans ground the
Orsnts Psss Cavemen Into the floor
with a 38-8 beating.
Ashland, with only one loss In
the regular league season, thus
becomes the second team In the
state to be able to announce
their Impending Journey to the
stste capltol for the play-off for
slate honors, for the third
straight year. The Salem high
school Is, of course, the first,
they being the host team and
always entered regardless of how
successful or disastrous their
season may be.
As Coach Bowerman so aptly put
It, It Is Just as well that the Llthlans
got the nod for the Salem Journay.
"We're not championship contenders,
end we know it," Bowerman aald,
"and we'll be all for Aahland when
they get up north. In the meantime
we hava one more game coming up
with them, and we're going to do
our best to knock their ears down.
It won't do them any harm If we
do win, and It will make them that
much more dangerous when they
start playing In the tournament. Of
course ws want Ashlsnd to win. I.'
they take the stats tournament It
will mafca us feel better because we
lost to the chsmplons Instead of to
the also-rans.'
Ths state tournament committee
from Wlllemette university, sponsors
of ths annual play-off series, aro
supposed to pay all , the expenses of
ths visiting teams, lodging, meals
snd transportation,' out of 'the gate
receipts. With teams from all over
the state entered, each team hopef Jl
of grabbing the state wreath, Salem
la Jsmmed with students snd loyal
townspeople there for the series, anu
the tournament Is seldom a financial
drag on the Willamette purse.
Schools attending generally nave
to pungle up some coin of their
own, however. While the major ex
penses sre tsken care of, each sohool

ing the players to an occasional muv
lnee to get their minds off Important
games, and such Items, but ths sugr.t
loss Is negligible compared to the
satisfaction the students get from
placing In the top frame.
Klamath tails, Isolated as she
Is from other rifles by mountain
barriers and ley roads through
most of the athletic seasons, Is
trying hard to find a "traditional
rival," such as Medford has In
Ashland. Traditional rivalry Is
good for schools, boosting the
gate attendance, and making
gomes a little more exciting from
the rivalry point of view. At var
ious Intervals Klamath has set
tled upon Bend, Ashland and
Medford. For the past several
years the heat between the Med
ford and Klamath schools has
coma dangerously close to Ignit
ing the fires of civil war, the beef
In the newspapers following the
last football gama being a good
eva tuple. ,
For several seasons now Klamath
merchants have offered awards to
Klamath players participating In a
football game In which Medford Is
downed. All that ts great stuff, and
gives the players something extra to
shoot at. No other team that p1as
against the Tlgera Is quite so loyal
In sending car-load after car-load of
rooters to the games as Is Klamath.
Two years ago 80 prlvat cars, each
decorated with red and white ban

a little Informal serpentining, adding
greatly to the local Interest In the
game. Now today they send their

the rivalry Is, Isn't careful, Klamath

and start some new traditions

IT'S THE ONE where you used to keep your family
skeletons. Not the kind referred to as "Uncle Will's un

reminders of unfortunate purchases . . .
Appliances bought on snap judgment. Gadgets that
didn't run. Dresses you snatched at the last moment
and never wore after the first. All things that cost too
much and gave too little. Merchandise from question
able sources hastily, inconsiderately secured.
You have fewer of these sad mistakes to put away
than you used to. You are spending your money more
carefully nowadays. Hard times experience have
contributed their lessons. But above all others, one
factor has stood your constant guard.
The advertising in this newspaper protects you
against wasteful, unsatisfactory expenditures. Adver

By reading the advertising not sometimes but
always carefully and critically you provide yourself
with a knowledge of values, prices and names that's
