i Umpqua Krause Holds Visitors To Six Scattered Hits Koch Knott Scort With 3-Run Homtr In Fifth; Chitft Ktp Ltagut Lead By DAN MINDOLOVICH Nwi-Rpvtw Sporu Writer Barney Koch, Roseburg's di minutive second baseman, pow ered the Umpqua Chiefi to a 5-3 win over Ashland in a Southern Oregon league baseball game here Sunday, by smashing out a home run with two men on. The round tripper sealed the win for the Chiefs in a game marked with numerous argu ments over disputed decisions and a rule-book interpretation. Manager Earl Sargent threat ened to protest the game when, In the second inning, winning pitcher Mel Krause threw to third base as Ted Schopf at tempted to steal there. A balk was called by the um pire, but Sargent held that the play by Krause was in order. The umpires were adamant, al beit apparently incorrect. L. H. Gregory, reputed base hall authority, said in his Ore- gonian column of June 23, "WithJ juuiicrr un amy uasc, 11 s a oair. if pitcher throws or feints to an unoccupied base, 'except for the purpose of making a play' , , ." Gregory was quoting as to what constitutes a balk from amendments in the 1949 rule book. The Chiefs won, however, and Sargent withdrew the protest. Hampton scored the initial Roseburg run, after smashing out a triple in the first inning of the game, matching a similar blow by Chuck DeAutremont, who stole home. Ashland went ahead in the third on a blow by DeAutremont, his second hit in two trips. The visiting leadoff man stole sec ond, advanced to third on Chuck Jandreau's single, then scored cn an error by Roseburg'i thitd baseman. a Koch sparked the show In a big fifth inning. Norm West and Ted Wilson each singled. West being advanced on a sacrifice by Jerry Huggins. Koch followed Wilson with -his mighty smash Into deep center field, good for four bases. Nine Errors Committed In the sixth. Snuffy Smith got to first on a bobble by Norm West, one of nine made by play ers on both teams, and scored on Moose Blevln's screaming triple. Roseburg countered with a final tally In the seventh, West performing the chore. The big first sacker hammered out a single, advanced two bases on Ashland errors and came home on a passed ball. Fielding was sparked with clever exhibitions by members of both teams. Moose Blevins made a beautiful running catch a one hander which caused bat ter Pete Coor to stop short. Ted Wilson matched this with an equally effective shoe-string stop at the expense of batter Snuffy Smith. Barney Koch swept up a grounded, adagioed and relayed the ball to West for a pretty putout. DeAutremont, Tex Gatlin, Wil son and West, with two-for-four apiece, sparked the batting aver ages for both teams. The box: Aiblaad: B H H O A DeAutremont, ef S 2 S 4 0 Arant. 2b .

Yesterday the same two men played in the first tournament since that time and won the doubles crown in the YMCA city men's tennis tournament. Earl Garrison and Bert Ran dall had whipped all the previ ous opponents by decisive scores but met more than their match in Miles and Bruton. Marlen Yoder, YMCA general secretary, reported this morning that the first set was very close. Each team was winning their own service and after being tied up at 5-5, Bruton and Miles broke through to win two straight games and the eet 7-5. Garrison and Randall came back strong and took the first two games In the second set. Then Miles and Bruton "got hot" and ran up the longest string of wins In the match, winning six straight, to win the second set 6-2, and taking three more to lead the third set 34. From there on out It was like the first set with first one team winning and then the other, but the three-game lead gave thie set to Bruton and Miles 6-3, and the match. Thia made them city tennis doubles champions for 1949. Rib bons were presented to them by Yoder at the end of the match. Yoder also presented Norman Moore with the 1949 city ten nis singles championship ribbon. Moore had earned the award earlier last month by defeating Glen Boyer In the finale. .
