Surprise Awaiting
Cow Girls' Player -On
Medford Arrival
A surprise awaited a member
of the Texas Cow Girls basket
ball team when the club arrived
in town today for a two-game
series with Yellow Cab, district
AAU champions.
Leeona Evans, 19-year-old vet
eran with the' Cow Girls team,
was to meet an aunt whom she
had never seen. Mrs. Foster Sea
ver. Talent, anxiously awaited
arrival of the team for her first
meeting with her niece.
Mrs. Foster visited her sister,
Miss Evans' mother, at her home
in Winthrop, Ark., about, a
month ago but the niece was on
tour with the team. They have
corresponded many times, the
last about three months ago,
Mrs. Foster said, '"but letters
can't take the place of the meet
ing which I am anticipating."
Mrs. Foster was expected to
occupy a place of honor on the
bench when her niece's team
plays Yellow Cab tonight at St.
Mary's gym here and tomorrow
night at Crater high school gym
in Central Point. Both games
start at 8 o'clock with doors to
open an hour earlier.
According to advance publici
ty, Mrs. Foster will probably
have cause to be proud of her
niece's demonstration of basket
ball ability. She is said to be a
terrific out-shot and possessor of
a good hook shot from either
side. She is said to be a good
ball handr wfea ca zr.ove with
the best of them, has an uncanny
knack of scoring when needed
and passing off at the right time
Another of the Cow Girls who
will see a lot of action during
the two nights is Pat Cramer,
fastest member of the team.
Miss Cramer is said to be a top
guard who likes to fast break,
is a good passer and good scorer
with the one-hand push shot.
Other members of the Cow
Girls who will take to the court
against the Cabbies are Florence
Holder, team captain and one of
the nation's most outstanding
feminine players; her sister,
Frances, who is just breaking
into the pro ranks out of high
school where she was an all
state star; Ellie Banas, a good
passer and rebounder; Shirley
Dorow, a pass-off artist and hook
shot specialist, and Joan Rupp,
who possesses an unorthodox
out-shot.
Average age of the Cow Girls
is 20 years. They play men's
rules and ask no quarter from
the opposition.
Cherokee-Jeri, western song
stylist, will provide halftime en
tertainment and the Cow Girls
will give a trick shooting dem
onstration, also at halftime.
Prior to the game the girls will
have a shooting and ball-handling
warmup session.
"Iff Incredible! The Party ht
ordered us to throw a party with
OLD Mr. BOSTON VODKA."

sk: "Does this truck have g
modern Short Stroke V-B engine?"
w
Ford's get the mef modem short-stroke SIX tee! Ford's
118-h.p. Cost Clipper Six has the shortest piston stroke of.
any Truck Six! It's available in thk new Ford Pickup, GVW
5,000 lbs., and all Ford Trucks through "2-ton" Series.
HOW TO TELt if it's a short
stroke engine: check the
specifications! The "stroke" is
always a. short as, or shorter
than the "bore."
THIS YEAR the truck industry is beginning
to follow Ford's lead to modern short-stroke
V-8's. They last longer prolong ring life

in seven! But ONLY FORD has four V-8's . : s
one for every size truck in a full line
available right now I
Modern short-stroke V-8's are begin
ning to take over in trucks just as
they've already done in passenger ears.
Today, virtually every passenger car
offers short-stroke V-8 power. Before
too long, the same will be true of
trucks. So, if you buy a truck with a
long-stroke Six today that's not being
built tomorrow, what will happen to its
ultimate trade-in value? Play it safe!
Don't settle for anything less than a
modern short-stroke engine!
