BATS TO CRACK AT FAIR GROUND IN NEW LEAGUE! Ashland and Klamath Falls Join Medford in Amateur Circuit First Game Set for Sunday Two Teams in This City. Formation of a baseball league In southern Oregon, embracing: the cities of Ashland, Klamath Falls, and two teams In this city, is now underway, and the first game will bo played at the fairgrounds next Sunday afternoon between Medford and Ashland. The Owon-Oregon Lumber com pany will provide a second team in this city. The league will bo conducted on a profit-sharing basis with no sal aried players. Ten per cent of each game's receipts will be put in a pot for the champion. The bal ance will be divided after expenses are paid, 'between tho two teams, 60 and 40 per cent. The league will have a president, who will be a sort of a dictator, with tho power to take a team's share of the gate receipts if it vio lates the rules. The league is being backed in this city by Court Hall and Paul' Taylor, and in Ashland by I'olk Minlnger. Klamath Falls started to piny in a league with Bend, but discovered it could not stand the financial strain of imported players and long trips. The idea of tho league Is to have teams composed entirely of home players and each team will nlgn an ironclad agreement that it will Im port no seml-prbs, ot1 use. saine'ln any of tho games. There is plenty of baseball .ma terial In this city, but so far this year they have been venting their surplus baseball energy on kitten ball. Among the players available nro Jack Hughes, Bud Conlln, Ma honey, Clarence Dunn, Harry, Freddie Dunn. Don Harriot, Bill Morgan, Al Melvin and others. Tho Owen-Oregon company has a Strong list of available players. The Ashland team will draw its players from tho Normal school, And has a strong team ready for fiction. Klamath Falls ts ; in' the same boat. They have plenty of ball players. It Is expected that the leaders of tho league movement will .hold a meeting this week, and formulate a schedule. The' promoters of, the plan win ask for no financial support from business mem except that thoy come to tho games.. Paul Taylor will probably be manager of the local team, with Court Hall as chief advisor and factotum. , AJ1 those interested have pledg ed themselves to keep the league on a strictly amateur basis. 4 s ' r "STANDINGS o OF THE n CLUBS.

Associated Press Sports Writer, It has been a long thno ci:ice National league fans have had an opportunity of watcning the New York Giants and Brooklyn Dodg ers battle It out for last place at this more or less into date In the season while the Boston H raves and Philadelphia take up tho bur den of making some kind of a showing against tho undeniably stronger western clubs. Hut that is just what they aro watching! now, unless they decline to let1 themselves believe what their eyes tell them. "'In recent years' 'when the center of National league strength has rested west of the Alleghcnics, the Olants and, to a lesser degree,' tjie Hoblns, have been able to muster tho strongest defenses for repell ing western thrusts. This year these two clubs have made a sorry showing while the surprising Pbll-, lies and the still more surprising; Braves- tiave at least put up some! sort of a battle to remain within j striking distance of the throe lead-! Ing western clubs Chicago, St 1 Louis and Pittsburgh. ThU.con- ditlon may, andt probably, vlll, 1 change, but it has been ail' Inter-j csting phenomenon in a season full of strange occurrences. ' ' I Tho Cubs maintained their hold on the lead by downing the PI-, rates, 6 to 1, behind Cuy Hush's five-hit pitching yesterday. . Tho i Cubs made their eight hits off Stevo Kwetonle count. "" "' At Cincinnati, Jess Haines re corded his 14lh straight league vic tory In two seasons when ho pitch ed the Cardinals to an easy 5 to 1 triumph over the Iteds. Haines finished tho 1928 season with nine consecutive triumphs and has udd ed five straight this year. At Brooklyn, tho Kohins trounc ed the Giants, 6 to 1, William Wat son Cfarlt, young left-hander, giv ing the men of MeGraw only two hits. Only in the fifth did Clark falter. In that frame two singles and a sacrifice gavo tho Giants their only run. The Dodgers pound ed Karl Huhhel out of the box in tho third, but were stopped by Ualph Judd, a rookie. Cold weather forced postpone ment of the Braves-Phils buttle at Boston. Only two American league games woro scheduled, tho Athletics Htrengthenlng their hold on first place by downing the Boston lied fciox, 5 to , while the St. Louis Browns were beating Chicago, 6 to 3. Kildie Botytnel held the lied Rox lo six hits in giving the A's their fifth consecutive victory and a lead of .two full games over the Yan kee. Charlie Huffing went the route, for the Kox. allowing only eight hits but passing ten men. The Browns got to Thomas and Walsh for U Hits while Sam Gray was limiting Chicago to; 10, well scattered. It was Gray's first Vic tory In his last four starts. The Yankees engaged in an x hijdtfon game at New Haven, los ing 3 to 2 to tho Eastern Jcaguo club of that city. . - BANQUET An exclusive reel of moving pic tures depicting wild life such as polar bear hunting in the Arctic circle and wild duck shootln? on the Atlantic coast, will bo an in teresting and appropriate feature of the big sportsmen's banquet to bo held at the Hotel Medford Thursday evening.
