Singles, Koch Starring
With Three-For-Four
Fani who stayed away from
the ball field last night missed
some superb pitching by Rose
burg's Mel Krause potential
material for a major league con
tract next spring who struck out
17 Medford Craten batters, 10 ol
them in a row. The Chiefs won,
12-5.
The speed ball specialist, who
hurled the University of Oregon
Wehfooti to second place in the
northern division this season,
held the visitors to four hits on
each in the first three innings,
and another in the eighth.
Only in the eighth did Krause
show any sign m wavering. Alter
he struck out two and issued two
walks, Byron Ward met a curve
ball solid and sent It sailing Into
deep right field for a home run
scoring both runners as well.
A sparse crowd saw the Chiefs
take three Innings to warm up.
Ted Wilson was the only man
able to hit opposing pitcher Her
mann's brand of ball during that
time. Meanwhile, Medford's Pat
Patterson scored In the first and
third to put the visitors ahead
24.
Bobbles Aid Chiefs
Roseburg tied up the score In
the fourth after Wilson, barely
heating out a bunt, scored on a
Medford bobble that put Norm
West on first. A single by Barney
Koch scored West, knotting the
count at 2 all.
Ray Stratton, Roseburg new
comer, batting for Pete Coor,
drew a base on halls In the fifth,
advanced on a Medford error and
Mel Krause's sacrifice, then scor
ed on another Medford miscue.
The Chiefs ran wild In the sixth
and eighth innings, after two bat
ters were out in each Instance.
With two away In the sixth, Koch
drew a walk and scored on two
passed balls. Jerry Coen, batting
for Virgle Sanders, slammed a
single, Stratton drew first on a
fielder's choice and Krause's sin
gle scored Coen. Both Stratton
and Krause tallied on a triple by
Earl Hampton. "Hamp" scored
on a Medford bobble that put
Wilson on first.
The only Chief to tally In the
seventh was Norm West, who
was smacked In by Koch after
drawing a walk and being ad
vanced by Jerry liuggins sacrt
flee.
The Medfordltes worked on
Krause In the eighth: drew two
bases on balls. Then the Chiefs'
. hurler miscalculated, and Byron
Ward cashed in with his three
man homer.
Roseburg matched this string
of counters by the Craters with
a like number In their portion of
the eighth. Wilson beat out a sac
rifice then scored on West's sin
gle after George Sanders drew
first on a fiMder's choice. West
scored on Koch's third single of
the game. The Roseburg second
baseman, with three-forfour,
was top batter. Medford's Byron
Ward and Roseburg's Ted Wil
son, each with two for four, were
second best with the bludgeon.

Carl C. Hill, chairman Oregon Game Commission, and

back to normalcy. But tha pro
two rugged rivals,
Georges
Dusette and Leo Karlinko. will
meet In the headliner, Navy Al
Williams and Pierre LaBelle
clash in the three-fall opener.
The four grapplers are among the
leaders tn tne nation, all veteran
ring masters who are capable of
providing some of the most color
ful and dynamic action In t h e
business.
The headllners have dlstinc-
tlve attributes. Dusette, the
French-Canadian from Montreal,
possesses the most muscular
shoulders and arms In the wrest
ling game and his full-nelson
holds are "out of this world".
Karlinko, the "Mad Russian," Is
one of the roughest, toughest mat
men in the game and holds the
distinction, dubiously so, of being
the most-haled performer ever
to step Into the roped arena.
Karlinko displayed his prowess
here last week by defeating a
very formidable foe, Salvadore
Flores, in Impressive style, and
despite his unpopular standing
with Douglas county mat follow
ers, is expected to give Dusette
a teriffic battle that migh well
develop lno a bloody brawl.
To match Dusette's superior
strength, Karlinko unquestion
ably will resort to his customary
rough-and-tumble tactics.
Afler last week's all-important
title tilt, which attracted one of
the largest crowds of the season,
It doesn t seem likely that an
other big crowd would be on
hand, but there Is every Indica
tion that local fans are eagerly
looking forward to the two-star
performance.

Triumphs Over
Yankees, 6 To 3
Cleveland Wins Behind
Feller; Cardinals And
Dodgers Remain Tied
By JOE REICHLER
A oC I a If d Prasa 8prUwrltr
If the Boston Red Sox" ever
catch up with the New York
Yankees In their season-long
I American league pennant chase,
I nuHl rtt tha r-rcrilf miiaf ha ariifan
most of the credit must be given
to their much maligned pitch
ing stall.
In the last five weeks, during
which time the Red Sox have
picked up six and a half games
on the front-running Yankees,
Boston hurlers have pitched 25
complete games in 34 starts. As
a result, they've won 25 of them
to whittle their deficit to five
and a half games. On July 4 the
Red Sox trailed the leaden by
12 games.
Ellis Kinder, the Red Sox1
right handed ace, is the latest to
go the route. He finished what
he started last night, beating
the Yankees, 6-3. for his 13th
victory against five losses.
Kinder permitted the Yankees
10 hits, including a pair of home
runs by outfielder Hank Bauer,
but an early 5-0 lead furnished
by Birdie Tebbetts and Ted Wil
liams carried him through. Teb
betts parked one of Vic Raschi's
offerings for a two-run homer
in the second, and Williams dupli
cated the catcher's feat in the
third.
Dam OiMaggla Fails
A capacity crowd of 33.691 was
made happy by Boston's first
victory of the season over Ras
chl, a note of disappointment
crept in, however, by the In
ability of Dom DiMaggio to pro
long his consecutive game hit
ting streak. The Red Sox center
fielder, who has hit in 34 consec
utive games, was held hit less hi
live trips to the plate.
Williams' homer, his 28th of
the season, was the 250th of his
career.
The triumph, Boston's 12th In
15 starts in this current home
stand, left the third place Bo
sox still a game behind the run-
nerup Cleveland Indians. The
Tribe whipped the St. Louis
Browns, 9-2, to reduce the Yan
kees' lead to four and a half
games.
Bob Feller gained bis fourtn
straight and 10th victory of the
season as the Indians ended a
three-game losing streak, The
star righthander aided his own
cause with a bases-loaded sin
gle in the fifth and a double in
the eighth.
. The fourth place Philadelphia
Athletics and fifth place Detroit
Tigers won their games, to move
forward also, The As, aided by
15 bases on balls, defeated Wash
ington, 8-3, and the Tigers wal
loped the Chicago White Sox,
11-5. The As are now 71 games
behind, the Tigers 9.
Deadlock Continues
Brooklyn and St. Louis con
tinued in their first place Na
tional league deadlock. The Dod
gers whipped the Philadelphia
Phils, 81. and the Cardinals won
from Cincinnati. 4-1. The New
York Giants protected their hold
on third place by edging out the
Boston Braves, 4 J. in tne only
daylight contest, the Pittsburgh
Pirates slugged the Chicago Cubs
8-3.
Rookie Carl Erskine hurled
three-hit ball for Brooklyn. He
lost his shutout in the ninth when
Bill Nicholson tripled and scored
on a fielder's choice.
Southpaw Harry Brecheen per
mitted the Reds only seven hits
and did not issue a pass to post
his ninth victory for the Car
dinals. He helped his cause with
a single and a triple.

to 18 favorite to punch 34-year-old
Gus Lesnevitch lull of holes
tonight at Yankee stadium in
the first defense of his newly
won NBA heavyweight boxing
championship. The 15-round bout
is scheduled for 7 p.m. tPacific
daylight time.)
Only 49 days after he cautious
ly out boxed Jersey Joe Walcott

Cincinnati Negro rushes to the
post in an effort to convince
New York skeptics of his right
to be called "champ."

knock out Gus, if at all, Charles
will not be champ in New York
state. Lddie Eagan, chairman of
the state athletic commission,
has ruled the winner must meet
Lee Savold or "some suitable op
ponent before he gives his otn
cial blessing. Ezzard is king in
the other 47 states.
It figures to be a good light.
while it lasts, perhaps even sen
sal ional, for Lesnevlch Is pr
pared to shoot the works early.
The ring vet can punch with
either hand. He says he will go to
Charles body but may surprise
by headhunting with his stiff
left hook.
Charles Is bitter at the New
York commission for failing to
recognize him as champ.
"I'm the champ In New York,
too, no matter what anybody
says," said Ezzard.

Gas Turbine Locomotive
Equal To 3 Diesel Units
PORTLAND, Aug. 10. &
The latest thing in railroading
the first gas turbo-electric loco
motive went oh public display
here Tuesday.
The locomotive, developed by
American Locomotive and Gen
eral Electric, arrived here after
a test run from Omaha.
P. J. Lynch, Union Pacific vice
president in charge of operations,
called it a "complete success." He
said it pulled a 105-car train over
the mountains, a feat that would
take three diesel-electric units.
He added that the 4.500-horse-
power locomotive would next go
south to go Into service on the
Los Angeles-Salt Lake City run.
The locomotive burns diesel
fuel, utilizing a 19 foot gas tur
bine to turn up more power.
Lynch said It was the rail coun
terpart of the gas turbine in
