high cagers will try to make it
two straight over the Jackson
ville RedskinsQonight when the
clubs clash at Jacksonville.
The Eagles bounced the Red
skins 47 to 31 here last night.
In taking the decision Eagle
Point never trailed in the eve
ning. The home club went 6n top
to stay in the early moments
!d head( 8 to 4, 21 to 11 nd
33 to 21.
It was a contest between two
green clubs and the inex
perience showed. But there was
evidence that both should im
prove as the season progresses.
"Redskins Ballhawk
Te Redskins broke up the
Eagle passing attack with some
Ggood ballhawking particularly
in the early stages of the tussle
and would have made a closer
game of it had they had some
sharper shooting. But the Eagles,
(for their part, yielded few close
inPshots and gave Jacksonville
few good tries until the final
portion of the game when the
lead was to wide to overcome.
V-And the Eagle Pointers were
Oable to work the ball in for a
number of good opportunities
at fairly short range.
Gary Foran, whose favorite
firing spot was from the side at
about 10-foot range, was the
only scorer in double figures
with 12.
Eagle Point lead wis squeez
ed to 8 to 6 fthe opening of the
second quarter but the home
quint established control by
working to a couple of 12-point
margins before halftime. The
spread was 13 points three times
in the third quarter and the
widest gap was 20 points at 41
to(Jl in the final panel.

Halts Rumor
A report received by local
baseball a k e r s yesterday
that Spokane planned to drop
out of the Northwest Class B
league brought a denial today
from Jim Fleishman, Portland,
, president of the circuit,
"It's news to us," Fleishman
told the United (press in re
sponse to a query from the
. Mail Tribune. Fleishman said
something may develop along
those lines at a league meeting
.! in Yakima Sunday but so far
' his office has received no hint
that the league's largest city
wfjld quit.
WOULD STOP MEDFORD
Such action by any of the
: seven teams in the league
would automatically eliminate
I Medford's possibility of gain
ing a berth this year, it was
pointed put here. Medford
was InrKed - to make it an
. eight-team league. If one team
dropped out and Medford
came in. the circuit would
again be a seven-team organi
sation, which is not satisfac-
Jory to sound operation, it
was pointed out.
Response to a partnership
plan to finance operation of a
' Medford entry was meeting
with "very limited" accent-
ance today, but the backers
had hopes thai sufficient in
terest would be shown in the
next couple of days to assure
MedfoSl's entry.
