Ashland Motorcycle blub will hold an 85-mile endurance run on Sunday, February 27. The course is being laid out through back country of mud and places almost impossible to go. Members said they feel that the route, will be one of the best such courses to . be mapped out in the valley. Notice of the event has been sent to other clubs. Cycle riders, who have not been notified but who wish to enter, are instructed to be at the starting point by 9:30 a.m. on the day of the race. Starting spot is the Olympic Truck stop south of Medford. Trophies will go to contestants gaining the top three places and a booby prize will be given to the rider having the worst luck. A big entry is anticipated, ac cording to Harold Harris, club secretary. is and Clark crept close several times afterwards. Loren Michelson topped the losers in scoring with 21 points. when the Ducks and the Huskies meet in a two-game series at Se attle. " The Webfoots, who have done no better than split a pair of home stands against Washington and Idaho, now hold a two game bulge over the Huskies but cer tainly have the tougher sched ule ahead of them in the stretch. Washington meets Idaho at Moscow in its final series and the Ducks must play home-and-home with powerful Oregon State. One of the features of the Se attle series will be the renewal of the Jim Loscutoff-Dean Par sons scoring duel. Loscutoff , the Oregon ace, still tops the North ern Division race with 233 points in 12 games while the Washington center has 221 in the same number of contests. In the last meeting Loscutoff poured in 47 points and Parsons tallied 40. The Ducks will undoubtedly tick with their regular starting lineup of Loscutoff and Jerry Ross at forward, Max Anderson at center, and Howard Page and Phil McHugh at guard. Three forwards, Ray Bell, Ed Bing ham and Gary McManus, and two guards, Bob Anderson and Leroy Nelson, are also set for the trip with the other two spots to be taken by Frank Werner at center or Rich Costi, Bill Moore or Johnny Lundell at guard.

Parsons Nears 1,000 Markers Seattle Dean Parsons this week end could become the fourth player in the University of Washington's long basketball history to score 1,000 points. - The 6-foot 8-inch senior center ran his three-year total to 974 points last week against WSC just 26 points shy of the cov eted mark. Although he appears to be an absolute cinch to reach his goal before the end of the year, with two games against Idaho at Moscow remaining on the Husky schedule after this weekend's games against Oregon Parsons would like nothing bet ter than to reach it before the Edmundson pavilion folks this week and against the Ducks from his home town of Eugene, Ore. Dean unofficially registered his 1,000th point in a Husky un iform against WSC Saturday, if you can count the 35 points he scored as a freshman, but first year totals are not included in the official career figures.. - The only , three point-makers in Washington history who al ready have crashed the charm ed circle are Bob Houbregs, (1774), Frank Guisness (1070) and Jack Nichols, (1067). Thursday, February 17, 1935 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN1 Pressure on Phoenix Quint In Rogue League Finales Pressure will be on the Phoe nix high Pirates in the Rogue League this week end. The Pirates have the oppor tunity to capture their first hoop toga since 1951 when they won the Oregon state B champion ship. But the odds will be against them. For the Pirates, who have been a Class A school three sea sons and who have seen some lean years since winning the B mantle, the order is to win two games this week end from the Crater high Comets. The teams play at Central Point On Friday and at Phoenix on Saturday. Play this week winds up the Rogue League campaign. There is no tie possible in the final standings. The Pirates, now trail ing the Comets by one game have to win both frays to get the crown. Crater will get the toga by just splitting the series. The clubs divided in the first round of league contention, each Game Agents Issue Annual Plea To Public To Leave Fawns Alone Portland The annual plea of the Oregon State Game Com mission to leave fawns alone should be strongly emphasized, according to Mel Cummings, commission field agent in north western Oregon. Cummings was recently called on, with the help of Guy Taylor, another commission employee, to pick up a pet deer that had been bothering a family in his region. After attempting to rope the deer cowboy style, it was. de cided that plain brute force was the only solution to get the deer loaded in the pick-up so it could be released elsewhere. Other Ideas Cummings proceeded to try and take matters in- his own hands, but the deer definitely had different ideas. After much struggling and rolling around in the mud, the deer was subdued and tied so that it could be hauled. Taylor and Cummings were slightly the worse for the wear. A check of personal effects re vealed one well dirtied' and torn pair of blue jeans and various and sundry bruises on the shins and other body parts. The deer definitely came out best in the struggle! Though it Is still a little early to be spotting newly born fawns, the idea is a good one to keep in mind. It is not only extremely dangerous to pick up these little watery-eyed individuals, but also will probably become dan erous as the fawns mature. Best solution to the problem is prevention. Don't pick up young wildlife! winning on its home floor. Since. the first game of this week's series is on the Crater court the burden on the Pirates is , even heavier. For Phoenix, Coach Jack Woodward likely will call upon Bill Madden, Jim Korth, Ron Vreeken, Charles Wall and Ray Dahl as starters with Ron Bean doubtless seeing a lot of action. Coach Leonard Warren's "prob able starters are Fred' Hogue, Jim Higinbotham, Bob Gray, Harvey Tonn and Vern Parent Another loop series this week matches Illinois Valley and Eagle Point Both are out of the title running. Tussles are at Cave Junction on Friday and at Eagle Point on Saturday. . SNIDER'S MILK Yellow Cab Tops Camp's Yellow Cab, the.
