It will be the final college football game played In the city this season. Olson, who until he was declared Ineligible last year, was fast becoming one of the most talked-of stars In Tiger history. Is the regular right halfback for the Oregon State first year team.

Comparative scores of the Rook and SONS machines indicate there la lit tle difference In strength between them. The Rooks tied Oregon Nor mal. 6-6, while the SONS lost to the Monmouth school. 0-6.

Lost season the two teams staged , a thrilling 13-13 tie In Klamath Falls, with the SONS rallying In the final quarter to deadlock the battle. Two years ago the Rooks won, 20-0, and not since 1932 have the Ashlanders tasted victory over the Corvallls gang. PLENTY OF DUCKS "Best ahootln" In yeara."

Proves Popular With Fans Here Doubting Thomases who figured at the start of the present football sea son that Medford high was making financial mistake in billing night encounters may stand corrected. The Bend-Tornado clash under the lights last Friday even ing brought to a close the high , school's night schedule remainder of the game will take place In daylight bH in the trio of battle Btaged under the glim mers this first year of night Mr Rule stuff, a rough 10.000 spectators poured through the turnstiles. That, In anybody's high school lea gue. Is a goodly throng, in fact. It almost equals the total population, man, woman and child, of the entire city. Of course, Medford .got two out of three weather breaks; only the opening encounter against Hood River was played on a dreary night, but at that, the game pulled over 1500 cus tomers, considerably more than would have sat through the same sort of weather on a Saturday afternoon. Following the Mood ltlver squabble, Eureka caine to town for battle with the Black Tor nado and under a clear sky and bright stars, nearly 40O0 rabid addicts parked the grandstand, bleachers and sidelines. The crowd topped anything here In years. Then, last Friday, Med- , ford and Bend colliding drew approxltntaely 4500 phllhertft. which probably won't be equaled this season, even with Ashlnml and Euaene coming up on Arm istice and Thanksgiving days. Considerable doubt was expressed by many fans and even school offic ials preceding the present football year, as to the advisability of switch ing the pigskin brawls from Jay to night. It was pointed out that Med ford was already the finest football town In the state In regard to drawing power, which la absolutely true, and that the switch would do more harm than It would good. However, It has been proved the night business la here to stay. Admittedly tops during the daylight, Medford has been even a better drawing town at night, and will continue to be so. With Medford, Grants Pass and Klamath Falls all boasting lights for their high school grid machines to play under. It remains only for Ash land to follow suit to make It unanl moua in the southern Oregon con ference. Although several .feeblo at tempt have been msde to stir up enthusiasm for night football In the Llthla city, nothing has ever been accomplished. Whether that failure has been fear on the part of school officials that the lights wouldn't pay out or the Impossibility of receiving downtown cooperation, we don't TRIPS MOUhJJI'SO jltf j m I THE W0R10 C0UID HAVI BEEN MADE WHIIE THIS WHISKEY f??

II 'K"l I I ing lime ot a ay, J miur i n-i-w. fjTf'J jj I jtt2 YEARS 0LD1 know, but wager It Is a combination of both. Bo far as the ultimate succesa of a lighting system U concerned, there should be no worry In the minds of Ashland school officials. First, It was Grants Pass Installing light and turning a half-hearted football town Into a regular hot-bed of enthusi asm. Where the Cavemen formerly were lucky to .perform beroro 600 fans, crowds of 1500 and 3000 are not uncommon now. Klamath Falls fol lowed In Grants Pass' footsteps, and attendance Immediately skyrocketed on a relative basis with that of the Climate City. Now, with Medford proving the worth. In every respect, of night football, there should be no more hesitation In Ashland. While we don't wish to editorialize or criticize, It la a tact that Ashland playera have alwaya been the most poorly equipped of any conference eleven. The reason Is not because of a miserly attitude on the part of school officials, but because of lack of funds with which to purchase new uniforms yearly and enough of them to go around, clear down the line. Naturally, If the Ashland high Griz zlies began playing before the same size crowds as turn out in Grants Pass, a town tho same size as Ash land, coffers would be swelled to such an extent that necessary equip ment could be purchased. The same thing holds true in re gard to coaching. Medford, Grants Pass and Klamath Falsi all boast one or more assistants to the head men tor, while Skeet O'Connell la forced to go It alone at Ashland. With the added revenue night football would bring to the Grizzlies, perhaps the Ashland school could then anoro equipment on a par with other south ern Oregon schools and coaching help for o'uonneu, even hiuuku i. m:mi . appear he needs much thl season. Good news for grappling fans. Promoter Mark Llilard said today ho h.d slimed Bob Kenaaton.
