Billy Hulen aayi:
Poor Prospect
For Grants Pass
Basketball Team
Unless George Hibbard comes
iid with a remarkable conch
ing Job at Grants Pass, or his
basketball aspirants completely
disprove the theory that experi
ence Is probably the most vital
factor In development of a
championship quintet, it will
most certainly be Ashland's
Grizzlies, as usual, throwing up
the biggest barrier to Medford's
drive to the district 9 title and
state tournament berth.
Although he is keeping his
chin up and actually predicting
that this season's Caveman out
fit will be as strong, if not
stronger, than last year's five,
we suspect that George feels
anything but cheerful concern
ing the Grants Pass prospects.
He lost four regulars from his
1038-31) club Gene Dully, Jim
Stlnebaugh, Ralph Lanning and
Fred Gray and with only Roy
al Mooers, center, returning for
more competition, we don't sec
how George can possibly manu
facture a team capable of up
setting the Tigers, defending
champs. Stranger things have
occurred, though, but until this
happens, if it docs. In our book
Grants Pass is definitely a cellar-caliber
team.
Grants Pass has three other
players returning, who saw
some action last year, and if
they can be teamed with Mooprs
to produce a contending quln
tet, George will have done a
swell piece of mentoring work.
The players are Jack Gabe
hart, forward; Bill Davis for
ward, and Don Newman, guard.
Don Hill, who starred for Kerby
high last season, has transferred
to Grants Pass and may help
the situation. But it looks
gloomy for the Cavemen.
Up In Ashland, Skect O'Con
nell expects to have a fine
elub, and with six members of
last season's squad returning he
may bo correct. In addition,
several good-looking prospects
are up from junior high school,
and all in all Skcet is pleased
with the general outlook.
Lettermen who will again
carry the Ashland banner art

Stan Davit, Bob Weaver,

AS JUDGE LAND1S
GIRDS FOR ACTION
By Gsyle Talbot
Cincinnati, Dec. 7. (IP)
There was a new high note of
anticipation around the baseball
circus today, a sure sign "The
Judge" had landed, tossed his
famous black fedora on a con
venient lounge and taken
charge.
"The Judge,' who is known
very respectfully as Commis
sioner Kenesaw Mountain Lan
dis, was confidentaly expected
to jerk the production back on
its feet.
Nobody knew exactly what
Landis had on his mind, but
there was an undercurrent of
feeling he intended to "crack
down" on somebody. The big
league magnates, with whom he
was closeted today, have been
worried and in a state of inde
cision about their "working
agreements" with the minors.
The situation, broadly speak
ing, boils down to the fact the
white-thatched arbiter of base
ball gradually has become a
trifle tougher and taken to him
self slightly broader powers
than the club owners ever an
ticipated that he would. Now
they are trying desperately to
slow Landis down, but they are
being very, very diplomatic
about It.
The difficulty seems to be
that the judge, employing the
"broad' powers vested in him,
has continued to . insist upon
making his own rules. This is
giving the owners a fit, because
they insist he is finding some
meanings to rules that never
were intended to be there at all.
The fines he has been plaster
ing around lately are all the re
sult of a misunderstanding, say
the moguls.
The judge has told them: "I
didn't make the rules. You did.
But as long as they are In the
book I will enforce them, and
according to my own interpre
tation, too."

44 Northwest Hunters Die ;
This Autumn, Survey Shows
By the Associated Press.
Your chances of stopping a bullet or shotgun blast while
hunting in the woods are twice as great as your chances of .
being hit by an automobile and killed on Seattle streets. :
This was shown in an Asso-
ciated Press survey today which
disclosed 44 hunting deaths in
Washington, Oregon, northern
Idaho and British Columbia
since September 1.
Of this number, 41 were di
rectly attributable to wounds
received from firearms. Two
others died of heart attacks in
duced by over-exertion, and an
other died in an automobile
crash while returning from a
bird-hunting expedition.
During the same period, Se
attle traffic and safety council
figures showed 19 persons lost
their lives in traffic accidents
less than half the toll of the
woods and fields.
The state of Washington led
in the number of deaths 20.
with 17 dyjng of wounds, two
from heart attacks while hunt
ing and one in the aforemen
tioned auto crash.
Oregon and British Columbia
were second with 11 apiece.
British Columbia records dated
from September 1, Oregon fig
ures from mid-September. Two
deaths were reported in' the
Orofino section of north Idaho
in each case a brother dying
from a shot from a brothers
weapon.
SHELBY TUTTLE
ON RIFLE RANGE
A new high of 397x400 was
reached last night at the Med
ford rifle club's indoor range,
when Shelby Tuttle turned in
some above-average targets, to
place hint seven points over
Ivan Waddell.
Much enthusiasm is being
shown by the pistol shooters,
and most have improved their
scores with only two or three
evenings spent at the range.
The pistol shooting division of
the club is still in its infancy
and now is the ideal time for
beginners to try their hand at
it. The pistolmen meet every
Friday evening, the riflemen on
Wednesday evenings, and both
hold practice on Sunday after
noons. During the past few months
the rifle shooters fired .30
