Newspaper Page TextChiefs To Play Rival Black Sox The Roseburu Chief close the books on the exciting 1952 South western Oregon League schedule this weekend. The last scheduled home game Saturday night at g finds the Chiefs continuing an inter-county rivalry when they host the powerful Drain Black Sox. The other half of the two-game weekend scries goes to the Drain park Sunday after noon where the two teams finish out the brilliant SWO League reg ular season. It should be a smashing climax for the two teams although the League-leading Black Sox wtll reign as favorites in the tilt. The Sox gain their favorite's role on the strength of a sensational season record of 29 wins and only six losses. In the League, they have won 17 and lost only five. Top Men Ltove The Chiefs, who hit several snags during a hectic season, have won H and lost 22. In the League, they have won 10 and lost 12. The records of the two teams arc reflections of two different phil osophies for semi-pro organiza tion. Here at Roscburg, Manager Earl Sargent built a crack team out of youngsters on their way up, but he picked his talent too well because four of the top youngsters made the Chief wigwam only a watering stop. Just when the Chiefs started to roll, Dave Mann went to the Oak land Acorns and Bob Bonebrake returned to the Brooklyn DodgiT farm system at Great Falls, Mont. This bitter pill was followed short ly by the farewells of Krnie Velas quez and Dwane Helbig. This brought the Chiefs to i complete halt. , Best Batters Meanwhile, a bigger budget at Drain turned the Black Sox into a scmi-retirinj; pasture for Portland Beavers and other professional leagues. The nucleus of the strong aggregation was Manager Roy llel ser, one of Portland's greatest hurl ers. With him came Bill Beard, a power-hitting catcher and Harvey Storey, a third baseman with I dynamite bat. The Sox have seven batters clip ping along at .300 or better pace. Here's the way the batters stack up. Storey leads the League with a .421 average. Don Kawcctt is next with a .391 average. In order the rest of the murderer's row is: Bill Beard (.350), Norvall Ritchey (346), Don Kirsch (.320). Ron Phil lips (.305) and Pat Wohlers (.301). The Sox have probably the best left handed hurling team in Ore gon with Helscr and his protege, Jerry Cade. During the season, both have won 11 games and lost only two. They set plenty of back ing from Gene Peterson of Silver ton, who has won five games with out a loss, Mel Krause and new addition Aldon Wilkic. Wilkle was recently picked up by the Sox after he was released by Coquillc. He had a no-hitter for the Logger; against the Heale's Bubrj of Port land. It was the only no-hit, m run contest posted by a SWO League team. New Power In spite of this overwhelming dis play of power, the game is still unpredictable and the Chiefs arc no pushovers as they proved last weekend. They can boast a victory over the Coos Bay-North Bend Lumberjacks, a point which rank les in the Drain camp. Four of Drain's losses were suffered at the hands of the "Jacks. They have lost every battle to the coast nine. A fine battery of Wally Beamcr and Jack Warren was a major Combination Rang DON'T BUY TWO WHEN ONE WILL DO!

Fishing Good At Winchester Reports received from Winches ter Bay this week carry fishing enticements, but with the report comes a warning. , Based on figures compiled by State Game Commission Field Ag ents Ralph Grenfell and Robert Phillips, the report shows a mini mum tnlal catch in the Winchester area of 840 salmon last week. According to tabulations, at least 103 skiffs brought in 459 salmon, and 33 charter boat trios netted 381 salmon. The warning regarded life pre servers. Card Safley, harbor man ager, in discussing harbor prob lems cited the prevalence of mis leading life preservers and jack ets bearing the words "U.S. gov ernment approved stamp." This approval stamp is misleading, according to Safley and Coast Guard officials. The preservers and jackets are not approved un less they carry the U.S. Coast Guard approved number. If this number is not on the article, it is not approved and use may sub ject the user to citation and pen alties, Safley said.

MT mVKS AT AltxAIVOtHA pOUVV-- 1 JERRY CADE out to tame Chief; Archery Tournament Here Will Be Prelude To Hunt The Pope-Young archery tourn ament which Roscburg and the Umpqua Bowmen host at the Win chester Rod and Gun Club grounds this month-end is more than just a test of bow-and-arrow skill. It is a primer for the opening of archery hunting season. Jo Redfield. publicity director for the Pope-Young Field Archers, reports that almost 2,000 archery hunting permits were issued by the Oregon State Game Commis sion in 1951. This tournament is a test for these bow hunters and a host of prospective hunters. The annual Pope-Young tourney gives these bowmen needed hunting practice before the archery hunt ing season opens in mid-Seplcm-ber. The Pope-Young round is the central attraction and one of the three championship events. It will consist of a minimum of 50 arrows which will be fired at the same number of animal and bird tar gets. These targets are currently being made as life-sized and ade quately colored as possible. Scor ing areas are marked on these animals and birds coinciding with the vital and wound spots. This event is combined with the wand shoot and the clout shoot for aggregate scoring in divisions for men, women and children. The highest aggregate pegs its holder as the champion for 19"i2. The wand event consists of a four- inch stake with two-inch black stripes six inches long superimpos ed on them. The shooter scores by hitting the black stripe from 100 yards. The clout shoot consists of a 60-inch circle target placed hori zontally as the center of a sreat circle shooting line 180-yards in radius. These dimensions are only for men shooters. Women's evenls will find dimensions considerably shortened. The Pope-Young Tournament so serves as a king-size get-together. It lasts three days from A STANDOUT NOW MORGANTOWN, W.

In addition to the championship events, several novelty shoots will fill in the program of archery dur ing the three days. Included are archery, golf, buck and squaw contests and others. Double No-Hit Game Recorded BATAVIA. N. Y., I One nf baseball's rarest feats a double no-hit game ws turned in by two Class D Pony League pitchers Wednesday night with Bradford defeating Batavia 10. Frank Elchberger, a Philadel phia Phillies farmhand, gained the decision over Jim Mitchell as Bradford put together a walk, sacrifice, wild pitch and an in field out for the lone run in the eighth inning. Etchberger fanned six and walked five. The 19-year old Mitchell struck out five and passed one. The only double no-hit game in the major league record book was turned in by Fred Toney of Cin cinnati and Jim Vaughn nf Chicago in 1917. The Reds broke Vaughan's spell in the 10th and won 1-0. Kid Matthews To Start Comeback Try At Boise BOISE, Idaho in Tiger Ted Lowry of New Bedford. Mass., will be Harry Matthews' opponent when the Kid starts his comeback in a 10-round bout here Sept. 1.
