DEPT. STORE We Are Open Saturday Nights Until 8:30 Sport Chips BY oh Harry Chipman Mali Tribune Sports Editor season ends and an football men are urged to report for the cinder sport. Medford Ramblers, originally in the Southern Oregon inde pendent hoop league, are back in the circuit under Bower man's policy to provide athletic recreation for as many high school boys as possible. The Ramblers were forced to aban don when they lost J.C. Tucker, their coach, but have again been organized under the watchful eye of Alex McDon ald. They will replace the Med ford junior varsity in the circuit. The district four basketball tournament between high school teams of Klamath Falls. Ashland, Grants Pass and Med ford will be held at the South ern Oregon- College of Educa tion gym in Ashland March 1 and 2 . The college is sponsor ing the meet this year, mainly because nobody else wanted it. Desnite the fact that they are definitely not in favor of the toumey. Medford school offic ials said It could be held here since it had been voted In but SOCE took over to keep the meet an Ashland affair. We have absolutely no use for the tournament and can see no conceivable reason whv It should he plaved. If Southern Oreaon leaaue plav should end In a tie we eould see a vlavoff between the two top teams but can't set anv use of draqetlner the o'hers In on another crack at the gravy. If coaches of the four com oeting schools want a tourna ment It would receive onr etamo of annroval jf thev would do awav with leaeue n'ay. Whv have both? Leaoiie nlay lose? Its purpose when the team know thev have to go through a tournament to gain a berth in the race for the state champion ship. Anv team miht have a bad nioht and droo a tourna ment fiame ftr thorouahlv outclassing all leaque opnosi tlon. JuM'minonse a last place tam should hannen to qet "hot' and win the tourna ment. It wouldn't be a fair representation of th dl"l-t to send them to the state tournament but they would be the ones to qo because thev won a couDle of qames after belnq kicked around all season. Some business, Isn't It? ' Of course, a team which Is of chamolonship calibre should be able to sweeo their league and also the tournament. But our nrmiment Is whv have both? Without the Ipaeue, high school teams In the district could book considerably more outside games and give their hometown fans a better chance to see out side competition in action. Let us hope school officials see the light of day next year and cut out one or the other. Contrary to a story printed elsewhere, there will be NO spring football practice et Medford Mqh school. To be gin with. Bill Bowerman, who will handle the coaching reins next fall, is absolutely not in favor of a spring foot ball practice even if the Ore gon High School Activities Association would allow It. Bowerman' said track will start a few days after basketball Basketball fans probably will see a close and hot game here tonight when Medford tangles with Klamath Falls at the South Oakdale caiaba emporium. The pelicans bow ed to Medford on their own court Jan. IS but their 52 to 26 pasting of Ashland last Saturday night convinced us that the Pels have come to the front and are a team not to be sold short. Its a heavy schedule that's facing the Black Tornado for the next week. They take on the highly-touted Oakland Boys Club here Saturday night, travel to AshlanJ for a klng's-x frolic Monday night, move to Eugene Tuesday for a mix with the Ore gon Frosh and return here in the last conference game of the season, against Ashland, Friday night. The durtain rings down with a Feb. 22 and 23 meeting with Bend on the Central Ore gon floor. GUN CLUB TO SHOOT ON 16 YARD TRAPS SUNDAY Medford Gun club will shoot over the 16 yard traps beginning at 10:30 a. m. Sunday. Because of the large attendance at the shoots this year the management requests as many shooters as possible to register for the events at the start of shooting. Coffee and sandwiches will be served in the club house by Mac Le- mond. Plenty of ammunition will be available for both members 'and visitors who desire to shoot. E. P. GRADERS WIN Eagle Point.

"grand slam" master of 1930, would resume his annual trip to the tournament post when the! Masters is reinstated April 4-7 but there was little hope even In j Georgia that he stands a chance; of winning. The reason is that the Masters is one of the toughest invitation al events of them all and even the hot, tournament-tempered pros have their troubles reach ing the payoff window.
