MEDF0RD DEFEATS
GRANTS PASS 6 TO 2

The spectators at the New Years
day football game on the local ath-
letic grounds saw an excellent con-
test between two evenly matched
teams. Victory belonged to either
team right to the moment of the final
whistle, and the score of 6 to 2 in
favor of the visitors from Medford
does not indicate superiority on the
part of the Bear Creekers.
Medford kicked off to Grants Pass
in the opening of the game, and the
locals made consistent gains through
the Medford line, but failed by
inches of the required yardage, yield
ing the oval on the fourth down.
Then with a series of three forward
passes, all successfully negotiated by
Alder, the visitors left end, the ball
was over the line for the only touch
down of the game, this coming after
the first few minutes of play.
Three times during the remainder
of the game the local team made tell
ing assaults on the Medford goal,
and a touchdown seemed imminent,
but Medford's line held well at the
critical moments, and they took the
ball under the shadow of our own
goal posts.
During the third quarter the
husky Grants Pass bunch fought the
ball to striking distance, and Riggs
attempted to lift it over the bar for
a field goal, but the slippery pigskin
ricochetted along the ground to be
hugged behind her own goal by a
Medfordite. Later a safety" count
ed two for the home team, and was
the sum total of the scoring.
Medford was unable to make gains
against the heavy Grants Pass line
and resorted much to punting and to
the forward pass, but the latter were
unsuccessful except at the start
when they were worked with disaster
to the locals. Our boys were able to
break up the pass after the first few
minutes of play, and their goal was
never again in danger.
The visitors showed considerable
improvement over the last time the
two teams had come together when
victory came to Grants Pass by
score of 8 to 0. Captain Beveridge
at quarter and Alder, left end, were
the stars of the Medford aggregation.
For the home eleven, Captain Allen
made several spectacular plunges
through the line from right guard,
and stopped Medford's quarter for
losses; Harvey, left half, made a sue
cession of end runs, and showed good
head work in picking the holes in the
opposition line; Quarterback Pattil-
10 called the signals, and on a couple
of occasions recovered fumbles for
gains Riggs, at full, showed real
star material, and was in on all the
plays, while the brick-top of Bixby
and the tall form of McCracken add
ed to the picturesqueness of the set
ting
The home team was we'll balanced,
and had the backs played farther be-
hind the line in the first minutes of
the game Medford would never have
scored. The criticism against the
Grants Pass team would be failure to
use the boot at times when it would
have helped them in a pinch, and
fSlure also to try the forward pass
when its successful working would
have brought victory.
The game was watched by the larg-
est crowd yet at local game, and
proved the growing interest in the
sport.

red, crimson. alsike and white clover,
are first cousins once removed, and
every wild flower that has the butter
fly blossom Ii more or less distantly
related.
Really, we have immense cause to
be thankful for many members of the
leguminous plants. AS field crops
they form the finest kind OF hay and
pasturage. and they are the only cul-
tivated plants that possess the power
of transferring nitrogen from the air
to the soil. Without them it would be
practically impossible to keep our soil
productive.
In the floral field, this family is not
30 numerously prominent as some
other groups, but the Sweet Pea
makes up for any shortages In num-
hers by it's rare merit.

Valuable Beetle Now.

Not long ago a Washington scient-
list, an enthusiastic student OF natural
history. captured a fine specimen of
beetle. On reaching home he, in a
moment of haste. pinned the beetle
to library table with his diamond
scarfpin.
When he returned to the library
from his dinner, he found the captive
had 60 loose and was flying about
with the diamond pin glistening from
his back.
Man and bug made a rush for the
window at the same inst. >nt, says
Harper's Weekly The beetle got
there first and triumphantly sailed
away. barely eluding the scientists
hand Neither bug nor pin has since
been seen.
