M.dford Phone 2119 For Towing or Wrecker Service Anywhere Anytime Lewis Super Service The local basketball Mason bowed out successfully Friday night when Medford high school took a 01 to 49 victory over a scrappy Ashland high quintet on the high school maple boards. It was a Southern Oregon comer ence game. It was not alt Medford by any means, as the score might indi cate. The lead changed hands three times in the first quarter before Medford could get things under control. Bob Watson scored the game's first point when he rang up a gift toss on Jim Jandreau's free throw but Cal Hovland put the Grizzlies In the lead with a basket. Jand- reau stole the ball and broke Into the clear for a lay-in to move the count to 4 to 1 for the Lithla City lads. Watson got a push shot and sank a free toss of Hovland'a foul to even the score. Provost Takes Lead With about a minute of the first quarter left to play, Jand reau again broke Into the clear for a lay-in to knot the count at 12-12 and Dommie Provost sank Darrell Rlggs' foul to make It 13-12 for Ashland. Seconds before the period ended Earl Stelle dropped in a field goal to give the Black Tornado a 14 to 13 first quarter advantage. Stelle opened the second stanza with one from the corner and Jandreau sank one to make It 18-18 for Medford. Watson got two baskets and the Tornado began to roll and held advant ages of 28 to.1T, 28 to 22 and 20 to 28 before the first half came to an end with Medford holding a mere three point edge 30 to 27. The Ashland quint had appar ently given its all in the first half for they wilted badly at the outset of the third stanza. Med ford ran the score to 38 before Len Williams chalked up a pair or rieia goals for the Llthlans. Carl Reich, Jim Cave, Bill Sing ler and Jerry Ross looped in points to bring the third quarter count to 43 to 38. Tornado Holds Edge During most of the final period It was basket for basket but the Tornado managed to throw In enough extra points here and there to run their mar gin up to Id-point advantage by the time the gam cam to an end.

Humidity can be regulated in thia cold room, too. And, if tests require . wind, anything from gentle rephyr to a howling gale of 40 miles per hour can be created. Creating their own weather conditions en ables John Deere engineers to test ideas and conduct experiments th.t are of vital im portance to the John Deer, owner. Here it is pouible to check and recheck, adjujt and re adjust until there is no doubt as to the per formance of a John Deere under euremt Mather conditions. V ; Id. Of Srat importance is the matter of lubrica tion when the motor is cold. Will there be reiid ul lubrication enough to protect gesrs and operating parts until the cold oil in the erank case is heated enough to circulate freely? Add thii phase of John Deere research to sit the other tests and trials conducted by th planning and experimental departments, and the answer i simple nothing is left to chance or theory. All the ingenuity and experience of trained engineers have been brought to bear on the main objective to turn out a tractor that will operate successfully under all conditions snd give a maximum of economical, depend able aervice to the farmer.
