Bowers, who is 18, is a student aad at present is assistant manager of the shoe department of the J. C. Penney company. Board number two, embrac ing the territory outside Med ford, reported that Donald Eu gene Wolff of Route 1, Box 935, Central Point, was the first to register. At present he is help ing his father on their farm. So, congratulations to the two Donalds, for being first in reg istering for selective service, First, that is, for the 18-year- olds In this area. Along the sports front the most newsworthy item of the past week was the announcement that Norman Worthley, popular and capable athletic coach of Junior high school, had enlisted in the U. S. navy's physical education program headed by Gene Tun- ney, former world's heavyweight boxing champ. Worthley, who also Is a grand baseball player, received a chief petty officer s rating. He 11 leave here Dec. 30 to report to Nor folk, Va Jan. 13, for his six weeks training course. After that well, his fate is in the hands of the navy department. He will be succeeded by George Harrington, who used to coach at Junior high before re signing to take a position in the local fruit industry. A four-team hockey league has been organized, with players drawn from the thousands of sol diers stationed at Camp White, and the schedule will open to morrow night in the fine Med ford Ice Arena with the 91st In fantry Division's Artillery Gun ners facing the USO Bombers. Basketball will make its 1942 43 debut here tonight when Medford high plays Weed (Cal.) high. The Tigers are looking very good and are expected to measure .the Invading California ans. although little Is known re garding the strength of the lat ter outfit. Instead of the usual two-week Christmas holiday, Medford stu dents will enjoy only four days' respite from studies this year. School will be dismissed the aft ernoon of Dec. 23 and take up again Dec. 28. The reason for the shortened vacation period Is that school opened at a late date in the fall so students could aid in the fruit harvest. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Flynn aren't very happy these days, for some body poisoned their dog, Toby, blue-ribbon English bull who never bothered anyone. Almost 10 years oM, Toby had been with the Flynns for the past six years. Tom has offered $100 re ward for arrest and conviction of the poisoner, and it is sincerely noped events lead to the payment of that reward. War has temporarily halted the political career of Frank J VanDyke of Ashland. Elected to the Oregon house of representa tives In the last election, Frank will be unable to serve during the coming session because he is attending Officer's Candidate School at Camp Roberts, Cal.
