• Noise—lots of loud, car-shattering
noise*—is the principal ingredient of
every child's Fourth of July cele­
bration. But the danger has been
removed.
No longer need you
worry when Junior and Sis decide to

ANOTHER pair of fast softball
games are scheduled for the
high school field under the lights
tonight when, at 8 o'clock, the
Elks and Dodgers square off to be
followed by the Rogues and Min­
ers at 9 o’clock.
The Dodgers, under the capable
management of Parker Hess, have
come out of their early-season
slump and now are gunning for
first place held by the Pine Box­
ers. When these two teams met in
the first round of the schedule the
Elks walked off with a 6 to 5
win after a thrilling battle was
waged. From the showing made
since by the Hessmen, the Elks
may be in for a miserable eve­
ning.
The Miner Press will be after
their second win over the Rogues
in the second game. The printers
took a 13 to 11 victory in tlieir
previous combat and since then
both teams have undergone ex­
tensive
improvements
which
should result in a much closer
ball game.

guaranteed safe. It shoots out
sparks, but they will not cause fire.
)n one of the best games seen
at the high school field this sea­
son, the Dodgers took a 6 to 4 vic­
tory away from the Miner Press
Wednesday night. It was a pitch­
ers' duel throughout with both
Kenny Harris for the Hessmen
and Court Rose for the Miners
putting everything they had into
their efforts. The game stood 3 to
2 going into the sixth Inning but
the Dodgers forged ahead with a
three-run rally. In’ the seventh
Harris tired and the Miners went
into action. Two runs were the
best they could do, but died with
the bases loaded.

In the first game of the second
quarter, following the Miner-Dodg­
er game Wednesday, Talent made
things hot for the Pine Box but
| their rally didn’t last long enough
and Bert Simmons' gang went
down to defeat 13 to 8. The Box­
ers were leading 13 td 0 before
the Firemen went into action. In
the sixth the Smokeeaters put
across two runs and went to town
with five hits that turned into six
runs in the seventh. Bud Wood­
ward pitched a good game for the
winners and gave up but two hits
until the sixth frame.

Dude Chick Will Try
Un winding Jackson’s
Spins Monday Night
Cowboy Dude Chick, former
junior
heavyweight
wrestling
champion of the world, will pit his
deadly lariat spin against Bulldog
Jackson s vicious hammerlocks in
the top main event at Medford
armory Monday night, June 26.
After touring the nation, Chick
returns to the armory after just
a year's absence. In facing Jack-
son he is meeting one of the
game's most brutal matmen but,
as well as being clever. Chick also
knows a few of the shady tactics
and will give the Bulldog a good
going over.
A pair of exceptionally
_
_ clever
workers will face each other in lhe
middle go. They arc Sailor Dick
Trout, the only man to win over
Jackson in Medford, and Otis
I Clingrnan, who is rapidly winning
a big following of fans.
A newcomer, Ernie Peterson,
meets Vern Clark in the opening
bout which, like the middle go, is
scheduled
for
six
10-minute
rounds.
Peterson has just returned to
! the United State» from a tour of
the Hawaiian Islands and is said
to be a big scientific grappler. He

\ HOME OU NI I* I Hl
Last Sunday afternoon at the
high school field a good crowd of
patient baseball fans sat through
nine dreary innings of the punkent
exhibition of baseball seen here in
Home time The lop-sided score of
17 to •> did not indicate that
Grants I’ ium wax good but merely
that Auhland-Talent was worse
Under the able management of
Charlie Skeeters, the A-T« can
play ball, which lx shown by their
standings so far this xeuaon Al*
though their losses outnumber
wins, close scores against top
t earns indicate their |M>xnibiHtics
But in Sunday’s game one con-
dition was apparent m the spec-
tutors* opinion: If the A-Ts ex-
jiect to get any place during the
rest of the season they will have
to undergo a definite change in
sportsmanship and sacrifice ¡»Tr­
itonal preferences and individual
ambitions and «how some team-
work.
Several times the A-T» had a
chance to win the game wtth the
liases loaded but muffed their
chances, either at the plate or by
loafing down to first base after a
blow that should have been a good
safe hit in any ball game Several
unnecessary errors after they got
behind in the score showed a de­
cided lack of Interest and left a
bad impression in the minds of
fans who had ¡»aid good money to
fcc a real ball game
Skeeters had to use three pitch
ers Haynes, DlSordl 1 and Com beat
but the Merchants' bats cracked
at all of them.
