Life's Attitudes
Determine Destiny
Speaxiig Sunday morning from
the topic "Qood Roots and Bad
Roots", rred M. Weatherford, pastor
evangslln, drew his text from Luke
13-1S: rrake heed and beware of
covetousjiess; for a man's life con
alsteth not In the abundance of the
things walch he poaaesaeth."
"Life in Its proper setting Is the
posaeesloii of a power to be used for
Qod, o tliers and himself. We are
co-laborers in the outworking , of
God's plan for the world."
"Christianity repudiates the pagan
Idea of ownership, it recognizes pos
sesions ns a manifestation of confi
dence from the great Sovereign owner
af all. Man does not own himself.
He Is a subject of divine ownership
and la amenable to Him for the uae
to which he puts his life, Including
his mental powers, physical strength,
skill, time and money."
"When a man takea the attitude
that '1 own all the concentrated
powers of my personality or. In other
words, 'I own what I possess', he
literally denies the Sovereignty of
Qod. Life to him becomes a self.
centered scramble and covetouaneas
the dominating factor and Incentive
for living. This attitude toward lite
receives a broadside rebuke from Qod
He said 'Beware of oovetousness for
a man's life conslsteth not In
(possessions)'."
"The lesson Christ said 'beware
avoid tho cultivation of life in an
atmosphere of oovetousness, was from
the fact that life springing from the
routs of this soli Is motivated by a
wrong conception: for life cannot be
motivated by these Ideals and ulti
mately arrive at Life's supreme objec
tive at home with Ood."
"Let not the Materialist think to
say '1 have a large bank balance,
therefore I shall not want,' lor that
can only be said by him who has the
Lord for his shepherd. The msn who
trusts in his bank account should be
reminded of tha man wbo went to
hell leaving his possessions and lifted
up his eves In torments. This Is the
picture of the man who because he
refused to till his lite with the full
new of Ood, filled It by the hands of
covetouaneas."
"May I exhort you today to let a
greater love displaoe that of the
creature's love and a nobler affection
supersede the earthly Man was or
dained by the primal law of creation
to hunger and thirst (or Ood and
that insatiable desire csnnot flno a
resting place until he knows Ood as
his Personal Saviour."
"That thing which costs us nothing
In surrender to Ood, will prolit us
nothing In the forgiveness of sins.
Contrsslon and "enunciation ol t.".e
slnlul life a:e essentisl to the tecres
tion ot Ilia by Ood through Jesus
Christ" j
The mack necret (above) races Bert Lyons, Joplln Ghost, In the
main grappling event at the armory tonight. Only one man, Cowhov
Dune Chick, has been able to defeat the hooded horror In the local
arena, and he claims Lvons won't be another.

SEATTLE. May 23. (AP) Two
young men found mndlot baseball
hazardous yesterday. Edward Run
nels. 25. and Howard Bnrtell, 28. suf
fered broken legs while playing with
pickup trams.
One Hfg Inning
Medford tallied all Its runs In
one big Inning the sixth when
Dick Lewis blasted a line-drive triple
to deep centcrfield with the basct,
loaded, nnd scored himself on Cliff
McLean's long fly to PramstM In
centcrfield.
Brown started the game-winning
rally himself, singling with none
away. Sakralda drew a base on balls
and the bases were loaded when
Manager Rlckert reached first on
second baseman Matron's error. LewU
then smashed his t.iree-play wallop
and Brown, SnkKiida and Rlckert
dented tho plate. Alter McLean filed
out to Framsted, scoring Lewis, Col
vert skied out and Ager grounded
out to end the inning.
Crescent City's two lone singles off
Brown, by Pitcher Koll in the third
and Spann In the fourth, went for
naught as the Craters turned In two
more of their copyrighted and spec
tacular double killings. With one
out In the third, Koll got a scratch
Infield snfety. Matson followed with
a roller to Brown in the box, and
the hurler snagsed It, threw to Lewis
on second forcing Koll, and Lewis
fired to Tommy White on first to
beat Matson. In the fourth, Spann
singled ai:arply to left, but Arba
Ager grabbed Miller's drive down the
third base line, lined the ball to
Rlckert on second and the Crater
manager relayed It to first for the
double killing.
Koll Kffectlve
With the exception of the sixth
Inning, Medford had plenty of troa
ble with Lofty Mike Koll, league-
leadltig pitcher Inst season and con
sldcrcd. until yesterday, the best
hurler in the circuit. Koll allowed
only six hits, f mined four and issued
two wnlks. Hoffard tripled in the
seventh and Rlckert, McLean and
White obtained the other Crater
bnso knocks.
The Craters played errorless base
ball behind their brilliant lefthander
and Crescent City booted the bnll
only twice. The grime was played In
ono hour and 30 minutes beforo one
of tt:e largest crowds to ever nttena
an encounter in the coast city.

This tryout camp of Durham and
Cincinnati (Durham la a farm team
of the major lsague club) la an
annual affair, and each year draws
promising rookies with the urge to
make professional baseball their life
work. Last season It was held In
Bend, and the year before here in
Medford. It was during the Medford
camp that Paul Oehrinan, big right
handed hurler from Bend, was dis
covered. He was taken to Durham
last season, enjoyed a great year,
wousd up the season with Cincin
nati, and this campaign will do his
chucking for Minneapolis In the
American Association, a clouble-A
class league. That's a mighty leap
for a boy who two years ago was
pitching bush baseball in the Ore
gon State circuit, and he is subject
to recall by Cincinnati at any time,
they having plenty of strings st
tached to him.
Mickey Shader. one of the best
known ivory hunters In the game,
will again be In charge of the camp,
and he will have lots of help in
conducting the trials from a com
petent staff of assistants. Players
will receive excellent coaching, the
kind that brings out brilliance If
there is any to bring out, and every
one will recelvo an equal chance to
show what he's got, If anything.
Thla will be the lone camp to be
held In Oregon. Starting in August,
the Reds and Durham will hold simi
lar trials In Butte, Mont., Salt Lake
City, Lewlston, Idaho, Renton. Olym-
pla. Vancouver and Spokane, Wash.,
Jump here to Medford, then move
into California for a series of camps
In Berkeley, San Bernardino, Santa
Monica,- Petaluma and Stockton.
