Ashland Dedicates

will climax several weeks of spring
practice for Coach Skeet O'Connell's

pretty clear Insight of what to expect
from the arlwilles come next fall.
Ash land's action In moving It
football out under the atnrs and
glimmers makes It unanimous In the
Southern Oregon conference; the
boys will do all their blocking and.
tackling at night next season. Qnnts
Pass and Klamath Falls went for
the lamps in 1038, and Medford fol
lowed suit last year. When those
three schools shattered attendance
records wllth their night Rames and
the money started to pile up In the
box office, Ashland aaw the llRht.
As a result, there will be little day
time football displayed next autumn,
which Is OK with all concerned.
Juit one more step remains to
be taken, and Ashland will have
a football field to compare with
that of Medrord's, the finest In
the state, and that Is turfing.
Cnach O'Connell said grass would
liiimt certainly be planted Tor

pretty fair team next season. Five
lettermen will return, all of whom
will participate In the brawl Tues
day, and several newenmers are de

Warren at quarter, Harris at full,

Although one of the wealthiest
tems In the major leagues, Detroit
has not followed the style of exten
sive minor league holdings, like the
St. Louis Cardlnala and New York
Yankees, and conducts its search for
development of young players In a
far different manner.
The Tigers, owned hy Milllonare
Walter O. Brings, Sr., has only one

Class A-l Texas league and Justin
Fltrccrnld. Snnta Clara baseball
coach and Detroit scout, told ua that
the Tigers were not overly Interested
In any yountrster that didn't display
positive promise of developing Into
major leaguer.
"St. Louis. New York and other
bis league clubs who own many
minor league farm teams, will pick
up almost any kid that looks good."
Fitzgerald said. "TVey hove to be

him."
tunlty for both the candidates and
the spectators," Mr. Perl emphoslbzed.
"It will be only live days before the
primary election and the big sporta
event will afford the candidates one
of their final chances to address an
audience. And at the catfish derby
they will probably have the largest
audience of the campaign.'
Each candidate who speaks will pay
a privilege fee of two bit to help
defray derby expenses, Mr. Perl said.
The talks wilt be limited to three
minutes unless the candidates want
to pay four bite. In which cose they
may talk for five minutes, he related.
"The Important part, however. Is
that the candidates must tell a fish
yarn." Mr. Perl stated.- "There will
be no hoey about wbat they are
going to do for the people if they
are elected. The whole catfish derby
celebration must be kept on an hon
est basis.
Fish Stories Wanted
"The candidate who tells the best
fish story, as Judged by spectator
applause, will be charged an addi
tional fee of four bits." Mr. Perl em
phasized. "This additional charge
ought to produce some excellent
yarns."
Hearing of the new derby fea
ture, sportsmen were of the opinion
that Candidate rtank Rector ought
to come off with story-telling non-
ors. Mr. Rector, It was said, has the
edtre of the other candidates because
he is what Gov. Charles H. Martin
calls a "fishing nut." Nothing pleases
Mr. Rector more than to be the first i
fisherman out for the season as the
various streams and lakes are opened
to nngllng. And when It cornea to
telling about his angling prowess,
well, Mr. Rector Is In a cless by him
self. Orenbemer Renowned
It Is figured that when It comes
to fish story telling Mr. Rector could
be beaten, and beaten badly, by
Deputy Sheriff Bill Orenbemer, but
Bill Is not a candidate for office and
so Is disqualified to enter the story
telling contest.
Candidates Bill Coleman and Jerry
Jerome are considered good story
tellers too, but their yarns run along
different lines. It Is believed, how
ever, that they can rise to the oc
casion and change the subject of
their tales to bring In the fishing
angle.
A loud speaker system will be used
at the lake site so that all can hear
the talks and everything else that
goes on at the derby.
