Clues Given On Democrat On Bout Card YMCA sponsors have listed clues concerning the Identity of the Democratic Mystery Fighter who will battle a prominent Republican on the Y boxing card on Friday, May 16, election night. They said that he Is known tn Medford circles as "The Democrat" and that he holds federal position, the high est of its kind in Medford. He was an excellent athlete in college.

Ralph Hiner, Rogue River, ran the fastest 100-yard dash here this season with a :10.1 clocking as he edged out Reeves of Mer rill. Reeves beat Hiner in the 220-yard sprint.

Locally there hat been so much chatter about this confused time, that we at Dean's Pontlac are im mediately going on "Dusk Time."

We have lights on the lot for better Inspection, but the Scotchman is so tight he hates to burn the office oil to keep the place heated for late customers. Wonder what ever became of the suggestion that national plan be set up to number all babies as soon as they're born? This ranks humans just one notch above cart, which have to get a license every year. However, we probably would not have to wear e license fore and aft, or put a nickel in a park ing meter if we stop to speak to $ friend on the street. My own slip pery grasp of the plan is that If you were given a number at birth, it's your own from then on. That's something to count on, figuratively speaking.
