Sowers first started his ball career in Pennsylvania, drifted later to Ari zona and southern Oregon, back to his home country, and new Coquille. At Bisbee, Arizona, he finished high school and was one of his alma ma ter's stout, young halfbacks, but it was in football that he received shoulder Injuries which worked a hardship against him in his profes sional baseball trials. Despite all of his ramblings, Hal is only a boy, 28 years of age. “Bud" Duncan continued his “fail ure to get any chances record” by not having any balls batted his way again Sunday. In three games he has had only three legitimate fielding chances, these all coming in the open er with Medford. Otherwise, how ever, “Bud” has been very much ap parent, what with his baserunning, hitting and aggressiveness. Brother Mel, the other one half of the Duncan duo, now "Benedict Mel," came through Sunday as he has been threatening to do and lined up with Perry Roper, Otto Kolstad and Bill Stewart in the sluggers* department. Don McCune, Ralph Taylor and others but minus the valuable assistance of Ray Jeub. Ferb Emery and Count Lawrence, fell an easy victim of the Junior Leaguers Tuesday evening, 5 to 0.
