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 Bombers had an opportun

Grappling fans saw the light

when Tex Hager was thrown

floor.
The wrestling commission
would not permit him to re-enter

25 minutes after applying a vi
cious step-over toe-hold, then In
a short second fall, Hager scoop
ed Weaver into a Boston crab.
Weaver tried his ancient trick
of patting his opponent on the
hack, to make the opponent think
the referee was awarding the
fall. He was successful and when
Hager turned around for a look,
the smoothie straightened out
and sent Hager swishing through
the strands.
The thwarted Texan from Cres

Miles-Bruton Duo
Repeats Tennis
Victory Of 1933
In 1938, Louie Miles and Royd
Bruton won the city men'
doubles championship. 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. .
