The Ashland-Yreka game, ached uled for Ashland, has been cancelled, forfeited to the Callfornlans by Man ager Leonard Hall of the Llthlans be cause of the numerous Aahland play ers working In the fruit, making It Impossible for them to play Sunday Both teams were eliminated from the second-half race weeks ago, so Uie game would have had no bearing on the championship.
