Annual Summer City League Defunct Because Teams Lack Place To Play A great hue and cry haai arisen among Roseburg Softball players because the annual summer City league hat become defunct for lack of a place to play. Investigation revealed that the diamond used last year is almost useless because the Umpqua Chief baseball team has priority and its unpredictable scheduling system makes It impossible to make up a definite aoftball schedule. The only other feasible site is the Veterans field at the Veterans hospital, but it has been cornered by the YMCA Twilight league, ac cording to aoftball booster Fred Schemer. Schemer reported that he had approached the mayor and park commission in an effort to bring soflball under a city recreational program, but he noted that prog ress had been slow to date. He said there is a definite need for the program, because it is one of the few recreational activities in which many men can compete in Roseburg. While investigating the problem, Schemer said he had found several sites that looked promising for a Softball facility. He cited Ellis Is land and the parking lot near the fairgrounds as most ideal. II e pointed out that Drain has one of the best diamonds in the county and it was constructed through concentrated effort by t h e city's merchants. It is his hone that Rose burg can do aomething along this line, he said. He added that the city need only furnish the ground. Players in terested would be more than will ing to do the rest, he said. "We have the labor to construct the dia mond and we even have the labor to put up the lights," Schemer re ported. In conclusion, Schemer asked Poland's Tennis Ttam Given Final Ultimatum MILAN Pl Poland's Davis Cup tennis team was given until today to show up at Venice or for feit ita third round match to Italy in the European tone eliminations. The Italian tennis federation laid down the ultimatum after t h e Poles proposed unofficially, through e broadcast In Warsaw by the official Polish press agency, that the matches be shifted to War saw. Italian net officials said they wouldn't agree to a change of site. They said they'd sent three tele grams to the Polish tennis organ ization but had heard nothing. The sites are fixed by the British I.awn Tennis association, which runs the K.uropean section of the cup competition. This group said It would back Italy. The last time the Polish cup learn played away from home its No. 1 star, Wladyslaw Skonecki, bolted the squad and turned up in France as a political exile. DR. A. F.

Gordon, now managing Sacra mento, was a long time New York Yankee star before Veeck acquired him for the Indian in a trade in volvini Ditcher Allie Reynolds. Smith said the New York back ing was needed by Veeck to clear up final details for the Browns' purchase from their present own ers. Bill and Charley De Witt. Smith said he had learned that Veeck turned down offers of fi nancial support from west coast sources, which were interested in having the American league team transferred to California, Wtsttrn League Placet Scrambled By Tacoma Standings in the second division of tha Western International league were scrambled by last night's play and Sol Israel of Tacnma helped in the deal with batting display that included a homer and a weird triple.

Dolly Fisher Beauty Counselor For Barbara Gould and Bourjois Will Be At Our Store Monday and Tuesday, June 11 and 1 2 FrtdMeyer ChisoxDrop Contest, 4-2; Boston Loses By JACK HAND Assorts led Prtw Sporta WriUr Maybe- White Sox fans should try the black cat and rabbit's foot curse on Vic (never lost in Chicago) Raschi. It worked in Cleveland where the citizens routed the Eddie Lo pat jink .with a strategic appli cation of one black tabby and 15, 000 rabbit'a feet. Chicago trusted in Paul Richard'a black magic. It wasn't enough as Raschi turned back the Sox, 4 2, on seven hits. Comiskey park customers who never had seen the husky New York Yankee ace lose a game must rate him in the Walter John son class. Both losses io his 13-2 lifetime record against the Sox were auffered at Yankee Stadium. But the Sox can console them selves with a 3'i game lead and the knowledge that Raschi can't work every day. Frank Shea, to day's foe, may be a softer touch. Three big games remain in this first important series of the sea son. Raschi amashed the Sox's six game win streak last night belore 53,490 fans, a new Comiskey park attendance record. The old hih was 53,325 for a doubleheader with Cleveland. May 15, 1949 when old Satchmo Paige waa atill around. Tw. Sacrifices Eddie Robinson's 11th homer with Nelson Fox on base put Ras chi behind the eight ball in the third. But the Yanks got to loser Kenny Holcombe for two in the fourth, driven in by Johnny Mopp's double and Mickey Mantle'a single. Three singles and two sacrifices won the game in the fifth with Gene Wood ling and Bobby Brown singling home the runs. Bobby Feller, only one win be hind Kaschi with his 8-1 record, dusted off Boston, 7-1, to get re venge for his one loss. It was Bos-' ton's seventh defeat in 10 starta since leaving friendly Fenway. The Indians assured Feller of his eighth win with a five-run out burst in the second inning, rout ing Maury McDermott. After con. secutive errors by Bobby Doerr and Vern Stephens and a walk, loaded the bases, Jim llega drove home three with a whistling double. Alter Feller fanned, Dale Mitchell hit his second homer. lie gan also added a homer off Wil. lard Nixon, third Boston pitcher, in the sixth. Feller ended Dom DiMagio'a consecutive game hitting streak at 27 games. Dom filed out three times and grounded out twice. He hit .403 during his streak. Senators Smothered Detroit cut loose with eight runs in the third inning to smother Phil adelphia, 8-2, while Dizzy Trout acatlered nine hits for his third win. The Tigers sent 12 men to the plate in the third to face loser Carl Scheib and Morris Martin. Jerry I'nddy had two ainglea in the inning. Rain washed out the Washington St. Louis night game with the Senatora leading 41 at the end of the four innings. The National League all-night schedule was cut to one game by rain. Chicago at New York, Pitts burgh at Brooklyn and Cincinnati at Philadelphia all were postponed. They managed to play at Bos ton where rookie Joe Presko o( the St. Louis stopped the Bravea with six hits, 2-1. Tht win gave the Cards undisputed possession of second place, six games be hind the idle Dodgers. i'resko's sixth win missed being a ahutnut when Walker Cooper homered in the ninth. Both St. I.ouia runs scored on errors by Bob Elliott who made three for the night.

West Side Beats Church Team, 51-0 "Hurry Up" Yost's point-a-min-ute teams were pikers compared to the West Side aoftball team Friday night. Yost's footballers tan up their prodigious scores on a six-point a throw basis. West Side did it a run at a time. Using only six innings the West Siders defeated the Baptist church in the evening's only YMCA Twi light league game by a fantastic score of 51-0 SI runs for an aver age of 8'4 runa an inning. In winning the scorer's night mare, the winners collected no less than- 32 hits 13 of them homers. Here's how the scoring went. With the aid of aix home runs in the opening frame, West Side got 10 iuns. Seven more came in in the second, but somebody loafed in the third and only two runs scored With a second wind, the West Siders made up for it with a 14-run splurge in the fourth. This was the big inning since the best they could do in the remaining two can tos was six and eleven runs re spectively. When the dust cleared, 72 batters had come to the plate and 70 percent of them had scored. Jerry Parmeter led the slaughter with four homers in eight times to bat. Every one of his first three times at bat resulted in home runs. Close behind him were Ron Compton and James Gilbert with three each. In fact, of the 10 men in the lineup, only four didn't get in at least one round tripper. In the meantime. West Side pitcher Sam Reitman scattered three Baptist hits to set the losers down almost in order.
