Mail Tribune 100: May 29, 1916 The following news items were drawn from the archives of the Mail Tribune 100 years ago Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted May. 29, 2016 at 12:01 AM Posted May. 29, 2016 at 12:01 AM » Social News May 29, 1916 MEDFORD WALLOPS HORNBROOK 31 TO 10 Medford everlastingly walloped Hornbrook on their own home grounds Sunday before their own people. The score was 31 to 10. The Medford team developed a fiendish batting disposition from the start, and hits fell like rain. The Hornbrook team was off color and errors added to the general agony. Pitcher Anthony of Hornbrook, usually a hard twirler, was lambasted freely. Caster, for Medford, hurled a good game and was backed by strong support. The game was such a farce that no score was kept. Next Sunday the local team will play Grants Pass at Grants Pass. GOLDEN LINK BIBLE CLASS ELECTS OFFICERS The Golden Link Bible class held their regular monthly business meeting in the primary rooms of the Baptist church on Wednesday afternoon when the officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows: President, Mrs. G. A. Whillock; vice-president, Mrs. George L. Howard; secretary treasurer, Mrs. Fred Purdin; reporter, Mrs. Frank F. Loder. The meeting was held in the late afternoon and the ladies then entertained their husbands with a picnic supper. It had been planned to have the picnic at Rogue River, but on account of the rain the plans were necessarily changed. There was an abundance of all kinds of good things to eat and all voted it a most enjoyable evening. Those present were Messrs and Mesdames Fred W. Mears, George L. Howard, Roland G. Beach, Elgin Bratney, J. A. Hemstreet, Frank L. Loder, Charles L. Hoover, Gus Stinson, Frank Stinson, James Leslie, J. H. Harrison, H. D. Alloway, Steve Moore and nine little folks. PROSPECT O. L. Irwin, Mr. and Mrs. P. C. Sholl and Miss Ora Walker, all of the power station forded to Derby Saturday, the 20th, to meet Mr. Sholl's daughter, Evelyn, who has been attending school in Ashland since last fall. They found several mud holes, in one of which they stuck for an hour or more. As it has rained several times since, motorists would do well to avoid the Derby road until there has been a week or so of good weather. Luke, the stage driver, says there ain't no such thing as good weather but he is a pessimist.
