LITHIANS WILL LEAGUE LADDER
TANGLE AT 2:30 AT GLENDALE
Off on the right foot at last, an
up-and-coming Lithian baseball
team will take to the diamond at
2:30 o’clock Sunday afternoon at
the Ashhind high school field
against Glendale in an attempt to
repeat their stellar performance
of last week when they trounced
'le Ixiggers In their native haunts
The return engagement till»
week will see the university
combination try It again and
Hardy*» southpaw curve bull
will smack into the big mitt
of Cliff (Chief) Mi la-an, w ho
made Howard Hobson’» 1937
tram of selected i northwest
conference all-stars. The In
field combination will Is* com
posed of l4*<iiiard Patterson nt
the initial »ack, Jack llnldlng
nt srcnnil, Ted Mchopf watch
ing the shortstop territory and
Arbii Ager, returned tills week

Pitching nine strikeouts and
backed by the near-perfect sup
Bob
port of til»
teammates,
(Lefty) Hardy beat the Glendale
laoggera at Glendale Sunday to
win his first game In an A»hlan<l
Llthlan uniform, I 2
Tile University of Oregon hurler
kept up a high even pace through
out the game, walking only one
man and allowing but five well-
scattered hits Meanwhile the local
nine, led by Chief Mcla-an with
three singles for four times at bat,
and Jack Balding with a double
and triple for five trips to tin
plate, found Weaver, ex-rival of
Hardy'» from
Willamette,
for
eight bunched bingles, scoring
two runs in the second and two
more in the seventh frame» Only
Les Pete for the northerners was
able to touch Hardy for more than
one safety, getting two for four
but landing In the whiff column in
a colorful fourth frame when the
lanky southpaw pitched but 12
balls to retire the Ixtgger» with
two Htrikeouts and a put-out, as
sisting in the latter himself when
he chucked Phillips' short ground
er to Brown at flint
Scoring started early in the
second Inning after Hardy
look a free trip to first when
Umpire Wlnklcman waved his
left hand to four of Weaver’s
offerings. A nice sairlflce
bunt by Brown set the Lith
ian hurler up on mkoiii I from
where he came home on Hull’s
single over second. Hall was
forced at second when Simp
son made the Initial sink on
a fielder's choice. Advanced Ui
si-eond by an error, Simpson
croaaed the plate with run No.
2 a« Ed framing sent a two-
bagger »oaring out over short
stop. Taking third base on
another
Glendale
blunder,
la-amlng died there a» Keaton
»truck out, ending the in -
■ilng.
Glendale made it two-all in their
half of the second stanza when
First Baseman Pierce bunted and
made the initial »ack on Melman «
bad throw to first to be followed
by Pete’s single, a sacrifice by
Phillip» and a double by Plaster,
young logger catcher, which sent
Pierce and Pete »currying across
the plate
Only other extra-base hit for
Glendale came in the sixth when
Pete doubled to deep right center
but a put-out, Hardy to Patterson,
ended the inning and the threat
Ashland's infield was par
ticularly effective last Kun
day with the lias«-1 inc hoys
bottling the situation so tight
ly that Al Simpson »pent the
afternoon in left field without
a
chance.
Ixiwell
Brown
started at first base, Harrell
Ix-avens at second, Jack Bald
ing at shortstop, and Ed
Is-aming at third. Thin com-
bination worked well until
mid-fifth when Ix-annng and
Brown were replaced by Ted
Schopf and la-onard Patter -
son who arrived at that time
from Portland and kept up the
good work for tmtanie of the
contest.
Especially noticeable was the
flashy
shortstop
performance
turned In by Jack Balding, who
has played all over the diamond
during the 1937 seas»>n. Balding
took the ball on the dead run and
sent it on its way without a mo
ment's faltering Leavens and Pat-
terson made circus catches of line
drives at their positions which
had a highly
\ enthusiastic crowd
on its feet cheering.
Balding's triple into deep n*ht
field in the seventh scored Schopf
and spiked any fears that he
would be ball-shy after being
hit In the head by a wild pitch
in the Camp Wimer contest. He
flashed home when Leavens pulled
as pretty a MUMM bunt as ever
was seen, ending the day s scor
ing.
Glendale fans spoke favorably
of the abilities of local players,
saying that the game was the
best they had seen in southern
Oregon circuit play and expressing
a desire to see the return encoun
ter here at 2:30 p. m Sunday.
Score by innings:
Glendale
020 000 000- 2
Ashland
020 000 200 4
Batteries: Ashland - Hardy to
McLean; Glendale — Weaver to
Plaster.

Victory from McCloud
An apparent McCloud win, 25-
23, was changed to a narrow vic

added to the total, putting the
local divot-diggers out in front,
26-25

the day's low as Ashland took the
northern California Iti-man team
into camp for the second time this
season.
