SOUTHERN OREGON MINER
Page 4
NITE BASEBALL
WILL FEATURE
PLAY THURSDAY
BETWEEN sniffs and sneers.
Manager Bert Simmons of the
Talent Firemen's softball team is
sued a challenge to Manager
Charlie Skeeters' Ashland-Talent
baseball team this week and an
nounced that he had tricked the
A-T’s into a night baseball game
to be played on the Ashland high
field starting at 8:30 o'clock
Thursday. July 27.
With both outfits in their re
spective league cellars, it will be a
fight to the finish to determine
who can and who cannot hold their
heads up among the assorted Tal
ent softball and baseball players,
said Simmons, and he expressed
confidence that his outfit would
wallop the A-T's at their own
game.
The exhibition will be the first
night baseball game of the year
in southern Oregon and is expect
ed to draw a large crowd of fans.
Banter has been hurled in friendly
jest but an underlying current of
seriousness has marked the chal
lenge as the result of "jilting " of
some players by the hardball
team.
Preceding the baseball battle a
pair of teams in the junior soft-
ball loop will play as a warmer
upper, starting at 7:30 p. m.
A-T’s Will Journey
To Gold Hill Sunday

and-down Ashland-Talent nine «¿11

with Gold Hill's Cement Makers
their next foe. Already downed at
the hands of the A-T’s. the Gold
Hill lads are making elaborate
plans for their first Southern Ore
gon league victory at the expense
of the Skeetermen.
The A-T’s have other ideas,
however, for a series of victories
will place them into the league's
Shaughnessy playoff and a chance
at the loop pennant. Skeeters will
throw his entire weight and power
at the cellarites

ROGUES OPEN
WITH 6-5 WIN
Manager Johnny Daugherty's
revised Rogues served notice on
the teams in the league that they
will be contenders for the second-
half crown when they opened Wed
nesday night's softball menu with
a sparkling 6 to 5 defeat of the
Miner Press. Curry's home run in
the sixth with two aboard settled
the contest.
The Miner Press took the lead i
in the first frame when Alphonse I
scored on Rose's double, and the
Pressmen widened their one-run
margin to two in the fourth when
another after Bentley had singled
The lead was stretched to 3 to 0
in the first of the fifth but in
their half of that frame the
Rogues scored twice on four walks
and a fielder's choice. The Press
men added two more in the sixth
on two hits and a fumble and then
the Rogues took over after Rose
had walked in one run and Curry
broke up the ball game The Min
er's tying run and last chance died
on second base in the first of the
seventh.

In Wednesday's nightcap the
Pine Boxmen took the measure of
the Elks nine 7 to 4 in a fast game
to place the Shookmakers in top
position of early second-half
standings with two wins and no
losses.

DODGER-ROGUES
CLASH TO OPEN
WARS TONIGHT
AN improved Rogue lineup will
square off with Parker Hess'
first-half champion Iksigers at 8
o'clock tonight on the high school
field and the outcome might point
a knowing finger toward the sec
ond division's probable league con
tenders. According to Manager
Johnny Daugherty, the Rogue hex
over the 1 lodgers will be called on
in Uie clutches and new players
Curry and Card are expected to
furnish a balance of power that
will give the Hessmen a busy eve
ning.
The Dodgers, on their part, will
jog out onto the diamond bent on
proving that Monday night's de
bacle at the hands of the Elks
was Just one of those things Hess
probably will start Lefty Charlie
Warren on the rubber with Baugh
man catching, and has indicated
he may bench Roberson and play
shortstop himself while the little
infielder licks the butter off his
fingers. Otherwise the Dodger
lineup probably will be about the
same as that which took over the
first half title Friday night.
The second game of the evening
will pit Bert Simmons' Talent
Firemen and the Miner Press. It
was Talent which knocked the
Miners out of the league top spot
first half and the Printers are re
garding this meeting with a wary
eye and crossed fingers Hungate
probably will start on the rubber
for Talent while Rose will attempt
to repeat his five-hit pitching
chore of Wednesday evening.
Both Talent and the Miners lost
their opening games this week and
both will be fighting hard to start
the climb to league importance.
Bob Kennaston And
Bulldog Jackson To
Settle Ring Grudge
Bob Kennaston of Gold Hill will
tangle next Monday night at the
Medford armory with Bulldog
Jackson, the bad boy from Port
land who started an argument be
tween bouts with Bob and was on
the receiving end of a poke to the
chin which sent him out of the
ring mumbling threats, so now
they will have a chance to even
accounts which should thrill the
fans. It will be a match wrestling
bugs have been hoping for for
some time.
In the middle event two very
capable and clever wrestlers will
be matched when Toots Estes.
