A win for the Pels would virtually eliminate any chance Medford now has as the Cavemen are undefeated in the league. Central Point has shown con siderable improvement in the last week or two with a decisive win over Eagle Point this week Tuesday and a near upset over Klamath last week. Grants Pass bv virtue of its undefeated conference record will be favored. "Play ball" for both games will be about 3 p. m.

HUBBARD BROTHERS, Inc. : V MAIN and RIVIRSIDt Phon. 2-6119 Why just listen to reasons ? mm see Fm wmsEiF ! This time we'd like to tell you about something that you cannot see in this picture something, in fact, you cannot know about from looking at someone else in a passing Buick or from viewing a Buick on our showroom floor. It's the feel you get from a Buick in motion. You are going to find out that it is some thing like traveling on your own private, jet-propelled cloud only firmer. Maybe you know a stretch of wash board road, where you have to slow down, or bounce and jitter. Try that in a Buick and see how you keep a level, comfortable boulevard smoothness. Maybe you're always on edge to dodge dips and chuckholcs. Those also lose most of their jolt when you're at the wheel of a Buick or in the rear seat. In a few simple words the ride of any Buick Specul.Super or Roadmaster is out of this world. We could give you a lot of reasons. Soft coil springs on all four wheels, for example-the firm linkage of the torque tube drive the distribution of weight big soft tires on wide rims the way Buick engines are mounted. Even Dynaflow Drive always silk smooth and free of geared-drive harsh nessplays its part in the marvelous Buick ride But why simply listen to reasons? Experience is still the best teacher. Come see for yourself why the Buick ride is called "matchless" -and how little it costs to replace a jitterbuggy with one of these level-striding honeys.
