Tuesday night behind the steady
pitching of. Don Reed, who al
lowed four scattered hits after a
shaky first Inning start in which
two Mvrtle Creek runs scored on
two hi'.s and two Roseburg er
rors. It was the second consecutive
win for the Chiefs over Mana
ger Kenny Laurance's Myrtle
Creek club. The 'Creek organiza
tion beat the Chiefs last month
In a Southern Oregon league
game.
Myrtle creeK s tnanie mown
and Lovell Baker, the latter ex
Chiefs' third baseman, scored the
only visitor runs. Brown, the lead
off man, singled off Reed his first
time up and Baker reached urst
on Reed's bobble. Both scored on
P!in Laurance's single after Lou
Kotnlck advanced the pair on a
sacrifice.
A double play followed Bar
ney Koch to Norm West, to re
tire the side. Reed was never In
serious trouble after that.
Mvrtle Creek Pitcher Bob Mir

our innings. Jerry Muggins and
Norm West were the only Rose

the first four frames. Huggins
singled In the second and West

scored on runs by Jerry Hug
gins, who singled and was knock

Then Wilson scored on Koch's
ground out pitcher to first.
With one and one-third bad Inn
ings behind him, Mirkovlrh went
out of the game after hurling for
five and one-third frames.
Roseburg was stopped again by
Bob Amos, but In the last of th
eighth. Koch, Jerry Coen and
Reed each banged singles Koch
cnmlnjr home on Coen's blast to
right field.
With two away, Coen overran
second on Reed's single and was
picked off before he could re
touch the sack, to retire the side
and end the game.
Bud Shlrtcliff figured In two
double plays by Roseburg. Koch
caught his hopping grounder, tag

to first for a double out In the
