ASHLAND IRON
WORKS CLOSES
AFTER 20 YEARS

The Ashland Iron Works, which
has been in operation in the city OF
Ashland for the past twenty years,
or more, is to close down. Yester-
day afternoon, the directors met and
decided that, owing to the death OF
George Dodson, the former presi-
dent and manager Of the works, and
the inability of the directors to OBJ
tain a suitable person to take his
place, 1t was decided to close down
the plant, have an inventory and ap.
praisement made of the property be-
longing to it, and to sell the plant.
The iron works for many years
has been an institution that has paiG
out from $250O to $4,000 in wages
monthly to it's employees, and IL is
quite a loss to the city 10 De de
prived of the monthly payroll, as
well as the loss to the employees who
have been with the institution for
many years
During the world war, the plant
did an immense amount of work for
the government, and to the credit
of the management it can be said
that there was never any work done
by the plant that was rejected by
the government.
Last winter arrangements were
made by the Moro Pump company
for the plant to manufacture num-
ber of Moro pumps, which 1t has
done. and the pumps are giving re-
markably good satisfaction, and it
had been hoped that the plant would
be used for the extensive manufac-
ture OF those pumps, as they have
now all patterns and appliances for
the speedy manufacture OF the same,
but Mr.. Dodson's death will uD,
doubtedly change all plans along
these lines, unless some company
can be organized to take over and
operate the plant. In order to do
this, 1t would be necessary to in
crease the capitalization Of the COM
pany at least $4,000, so that the
pumps could be made in, large guam
titles, and the demand for them be
supplied, but the capitalists of this
city have ever been slow in investing
in industrial enterprises so much
needed and so important to the well
fare of the city.
The present stockholders have
been in the harness so long that they
feel now as II they wished to avoid
further responsibility in connection
with the enterprise.
G. S. Butler, vice president of the
company, will assume charge of the
business of the corporation towards
the winding up Of its affairs.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK
FOR HONOR YEAR
A. II. y. FOOTBALL

'Twenty-eight young huskies, ar
dent deyotees OF the plg-skin sport,
and averaging $50 pounds In weight,
are trampling over newly plowed
and first rate football field at the
high school under the watchful eye
OF Coach Hughes, who is enthuslas-
tic over the prospects of winning
team to carry off the gridiron hon
ors OF Southern Oregon. Although
only three letter men, members OF
the regular team of last year, have
returned to school, Hughes is opto-
mistic in the belief that he has Il
bunch of boys who will stick through
the school year. Difficulty in keep
ing trained men in school has been
a handicap during previous years,
Hughes said. A number of old men
who played football last year as sub
stitutes and part time regular line
men who played last year but failed
to make the team, form a strong
background that promises to put the
local high school on the map In foot
ball.
The first scheduled game of the
year will be played at klamath
Falls Saturday of next week with
the high school team of that place.
The game schedule for the season
has not been definitely arranged, al
though Coach Hughes states that
seven games will probably be played.
Following conference between
Roseburg, Medford. klamath Falls,
Grants Pass and Ashland, the
schools have made combine repre-
senting Southern Oregon, the cham
pion of which is expected to chal-
lenge northern team. For the
first time in its school history,
Hughes says Roseburg will play
football and will meet the Ashland
gridirOn warriors at date that has
not yet been set. Efforts are being
made to schedule game with Grants
Pass for October s. Two games with
MedfOrd, November II, Armistice
day, and Thanksgiving day, are be-
ing arranged.
The following last years men are
turning out for practice Albert
