C. SPINK Si SON, ST. LOUIS. MO. FANDOM AT RANDOM Br DICK APPI.ROATB HOLDS AND CHICK wrestling The following story, th humor of which la Immediately apparent, la told by Rum Achlson, Junior hlfTn school coach. It seems that In the Intra-mural basketball tournaments that Achlson la conducting, two teams were very well matched re cently. The game went Into half time all oven. The surprise came In the last half, when one team, apparently shedding whatever It was that had kept them In check In the first per iod, ran wild, tossing In baskets from all angles and running away with the scoring. Near the end of the game tho "hot" team was so far ahead as to be actually phenomenal. At this period one of the play era on the team which was tak ing a hentlng bpgnn to have sus picions Hint all was not well. Hfjulntlng Itls eyes he did a spot of counting, then approached Achlson 4vlth a "Mey, those guys have gut more players than we have." Which waa no more than the sim ple truth. At the half an extra man had reported for duty, and since all the players were attired in school clothes Instead of uniforms, no one noticed the discrepancy. Tou might not believe this, but In case you don't we (like Perclval Christopher Wren on another occa sion) will be glad to accompany you there (at your expense) to see for yourself. At Camp Agnesa, hailed as the most remote CCC camp In the Country, the men are building racing shells! Racing shells being construct ed out In the wilds seem ridiculous enough, but the kick comes when It Is learned they are being made out of odds and ends from around the Camps, Including metal taken from discorded coffee cans, and bits of plywood. Robert "Sailor" Allen, assistant leader of the camp, Is heading the enterprise, with one 18-foot shell nearly oompleted. It la planned to have races on the Rogue and Illinois rivers during the hot weather this summer. Ray Frllle, after whanging Ted Christy on the skull with nls ham like fist In last week's mntcliea at the Armory, Is now carrying snld 1mm In a badly battered condition. X-rays have so far failed to reveal any broken bones, but the duke Is so badly swollen that he finds It almost useless. Next Mine Friable will pmbnhly think twice before hit ting a knot hrnd like Christy on the skull. The seemingly Impossible has been eocompllahedl Ken Hollls, once the victim of Dud. Chick's brain froth ing lariat spin, baa so far forgotten that experience and let his ego run away with him that he has actually challenged the big ea-cowhand to an other battle, It was learned today. Prom his Los Angeles hideaway, the Oaf of the Ozsrks sent Promoter Xjlllsrd a ohallenge to the Dude. Chick, who allowed. Hollls extra time to recover from the unmerciful apln, with the reault that he loat the match on a fluke, promptly retrieved the gauntlet with the assurance that ntohing on earth would please hlra more than to meet Hollls again, in the ring In which he lost on the for mer occaaion. Llllard haa signed the two for the main evont here Mon day. "This time J won't have to grant him extra time," Ohlok aald. "When I apln him this time 111 keep on spinning him till the top of his hard head files oft or I break my own lega getting them wound up In the mat," he declared. For the second straight week the middle main event promlsea to be as thrilling aa the top oard, when Oeorge "Wildcat" Wilson unleashes his fly ing tackles at none other than the wily Russian Lion, Al Karaslck. In Karaalck It Is believed Wilson will have his most versatile and slippery opponent. In straight wrestling th'.re Is little doubt aa to who la the best wrest'er, the Lion holding wins over most of the beat men In the game. The Wilson tackles, recognized aa the best In the game, may be enough to take the bout If he can connect with the deceptive Karaalck. Always a favorite In this city, Karaslck hu time and time again feigned Injury only to reoover and flatten his ad reraary with his murderous crao holu and Wilson haa Indicated that It will be this trait he will be watch ing Monday. The opener will feature the gorilla like Mike Osddock. unscrupulous but clever mat worker, against the de ceptive Stanley Rogers of Austin, Texas. The burly loklng ex-gob lost his Initial apearance here to Chlca, and haa promised to batter Rogers Into sailcloth In the first round, by way of a comeback. More odds and ends: Ed Klrtley, backfleld coach at the Senior high school will switch to line duties next week when he starts working out prospective guards, tackles, centers and ends on the wrestling mat. A good wrestler himself, Klrtley be llevca a knowledge of the balance necessary In that game will help the linemen no end next year. Eldon Grow, big sophomore center on the high school basketball sqund, haa had terrific luck all season at hitting the basket. Laat night In a game between the high school sopho mores and the Jacksonville high school, Qrow found himself and scored lfl of the 33 points in the 33 17 boating handed the J'vllle outfit. Last Monday tho sophomores avenged two eariy season lickings by Central Point with a 30-13 beating. As soon as cinders are hauled from the dump back of the Black Bear aoft-coal mine on Roxy Ann, where they have been smouldering for 17 years, the high school will start track work. Already a aquftd of 40 can be seen hot-footing It cross country get ting In condition. The otmlers are red, due to iron deposits in the coal.

PLAY FIRST ROUND IN LA GRANDE TOURNAMENT LA GRANDE, Ore., March 4. (AP) Valf, Baker, Ontario and La Grand scored victories In the opening round of the District One high school bas ketball tournament at the Eastern Oregon Normal school gymnasium last night. E With nothing hanging In the bal ance but revenge, the Med ford Tigers meet the thrice victorious Ashland Grizzlies on the Medford floor Fri day night. It has been announced from Ashland that Howard Mayberry, long-legged Ashland center, will be out of the fray with mumps, and Ooech Don Faber has announced that Lee. guard, who has been out for several weeks with a cut hand, will not play against Medford, but will be saved for the state tournament In Salem. The loss of Mayberry Is a distinct one to the Lithlans, the big pivot man making many of Ashland's mark era against the locals in earlier games. With the Tigers clicking much better than they have all year. It waa hoped here that they would chalk up at leaat one win over their traditional ' rivals while those rivals were In play ing condition. j Medford, due to the loss of May berry and Lee, la given the advan- j tags in the betting for the first time this year. Coach Bowerman of Meo tord today deplored the loss of the Ashland center, because "I think we . could beat them this time, even with : Mayberry in there," he aald. I Tlcketa for the game are going fast, I a check with the school shows, and a record crowd la expected to witness the encounter. The three Ashland losses are the only onea suffered by the Medford squad this year, and they are enxloue to record at least one vlotory.
