Answering the questionnaire sent out were principals and superintendents of A and B high schools in the state. While the poll was no more than a meant of finding out what officials thought along certain lines and may have no effect on policies of either association, some answers to questions and the percentage of "yes" and "no" to them are of interest to sports fans. One question in particular is of interest because of current moves to change classification of schools into A, B and C so as to make athletic competition closer than it is now. According to the OSAA report on the poll. 355 voted in favor of dividing the schools into three classes, 31 wanted the pres ent A and B set-up and 12 sug gested raising the B classifica tion. The three divisions under the proposed change would make A schools those having 600 to 1.000 pupil.". B schools those with 150 to 600 and C schools would have 0 to 150. Those suggesting raising the B school classification varied between six wanting 200 as the maximum, four wishing 225 and four asking for 250. If this is any kind of indi cation, most school superinten dents and principals in Ore gon want an A, B and C classi fication and maybe this will . bring the OSAA board of con trol to change its mind and authorize the revision at has been asked by many fans and tchools. Here is another in a series of explanations on changes and new interpretations in baseball rules made by Umpire Bill Sum mers: "When a batted ball rolls foul along either base line the batter and coaches must not touch the ball nor may anyone guff or fluff on it. The ball must be al owed to come to rest insofar as these men are concerned. "Otherwise it is interference and the batter it out." Medford high sports picture insofar as winning games and meets are concerned looks better and better. Last Saturday Don Vincent certainly provided one of the most thrilling climaxes to a track meet that has been seen here in some time with his long heave of the javelin which to gether with D. C. Mills' throw gave Medford that event and a win over Klamath Falls, The Tornado showed more poite which perhapt it at leatt ' partly because of the relative ly large number of boyt out for each event. Medford hat another tough tett thit week Saturday when It taket on Crantt Put at Grantt Pati. Coach Alex McDonald is pleas ed with the pitching and prob ably his fielding possibilities on the Tornado baseball team but he certainly must be wondering how lone the team's winning luck will hold out when the boys can garner but two to five hits per game. Derald Wooten kept Eagle Point in hand last Friday with a no-hitter but his playmates made only two hits. BOWLING LADIES' LEAGUE Mrs. Rose Barr scored high individual series with 517 and Sis Beck tallied high individual game honors with her 210 last night when the Ladies' Bowling league held its weekly competi tion at Medford Bowling lanes.
