Ashland, Nov. 23.-Overcoming six
point lead near the middle of the first
half, Ashland high today defeated the
strong Methvin quint by score Of
% to 49, on the Methvin court.
Methvin sprang into an early lead
and held it for the first ten minutes,
heady back-center tip off play be-
ing their most successful weapon. But
when the Ashland offensive learned
to counteract this play and get pos
session Of the ball they had things
very much their own way. Captain
Rushing carried the ball through the
Methvin defensive and fed it to Walk
er or Thomas, who shot goals with un-
canny accuracy, especially in the
second half Gahagan and Robinette
did some sensational defensive work
for Ashland. Morgan made the best
showing on the Methvin side.

HARDING HAS
DROPPED PLAN
FOR VACATION
President Abandons Idea OF
Winter White House at

ny WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON,
International News Service.

President Harding, although
~earied by his continuous attention
TO executive duties during the past
Ten months. has definitely abandoned
contemplated winter vacation trip
70 Florida resorts. 1T was learned
today.
The slow convalescence of Mrs.
Harding from her serious illness, 1t
was said, caused the President to
call off a proposed winter trip to
Florida. Mrs. Harding's condition
win prevent her being moved from
the White House for several months
~ least, and in the meantime the
president will remain here
The usual winter round of social
activities at the White House already
mas been called off. This was due

sawyer. the Presidents physician,
tnat Mrs. Harding would not be able
10 participate in any social affair
until next spring at the earliest.
Her illness was of so serious a
nature that her convalescence will be
spread out over period of months.
The President had planned to take
mrs. Harding to Florida for the
winter in the belief that a warmer
Climate would aid in her more rapid
recovery, 1t was believed the Presi-
dent at the same time would estab-
hsh winter White House at a
southern resort, and return to Wash.
ngton only when his duties here
were most pressing.
Brig. Gen. Sawyer. however, dis.
approved the plan, 1t was said. on
the ground that a change in climate
would not benefit Mrs. Harding and
that there was danger in making any
attempt to move her until she has
more nearly regained her normal
strength.
