JUNE 11, 1934. 10 Single by Ken Williams In Ninth Frame Gives 8 to 7 Victory and Undisputed Leadership of League .KLAMATH FALLS, June It. (AP) Sunday score: . Bwsuna, 8; 8haw Bertram 1. (By Billy Ilulen) i Ken Williams, pinch hitting In the last of the ninth Inning with the score tied and two men on Base, rapped out a high hopping Infield Ingle to score Merv Ohastaln with the run that give his Grants Pass Merchant a thrilling 8-7 victory over the Medford Rogues yesterday afternoon at Qrhn'i Pass. . The game, played before one of the largest crowds In arants rsss history, saw the Merchants advance to undisputed Southern Oregon League first place and Medford drop to second. Planting from behind twice in earlier Innings, arants Pass finally won out In the ninth when, with the score knotted at seven all, Drou- lette started it off with a single to right. Olpe dittoed, putting Chastaln running for Droulette, on second Garrett sacrificed and then Williams hit Hughes' first pitch to shortstop and the game was over. After-game guessing, it appears that Hal Height's managerial strategy was very questionable. Instead of In tentionally walking Williams, for years one of the greatest hitters in the National league, and filling the bases so as to set the stage for a double play, there being one out at the time, he decided to let Wil liams hit, whloh he. did and for the ball game. Strength Is lent to that by the. fact that, coming up after Williams, was the tall end of Che batting order. Both starting pitchers, Ear hart for Oranta Pass snd MoLean for Med ford were battered from the bos: Earhart in the sixth when single by White, Joy and Retaking and McLean's triple ' to left center ac counted for three runs and McLean In the fifth "When two errors by Joanls, a walk to McCarthy and singles by Wade, Droulette and Blev Ins scored, four times for the Mer chants.

Llllard announces that there will be no preliminary to this double header, as he says, and most mat fans agree, that It Is better to get the beat talent on the coast than less colorful fighters 1n a three-bout show. Ted Thye saw action here last week on the Jubilee card, when he took two out of three falls from belligerent Pete Belcastro, and Is looking around for tougher prey, which Llllard has attempted to furnish In Bob Kruse, who has a following here from many previous appearances. The broccoli king, who hands out a mean dieh of wrestling, la a worthy foe for Thye. In the first of the double header bouts, Little Wolf and Miller are ex pected to furnish an equally Interest ing mtxup, as both are fast on their feet, know many a trick of the trade, and stop with nothing short of the ropes. In a bout here two weeks ago. Miller, in fact, didn't stp even with the ropes, and applied a vigorous choke-hold with them about Little Wolf's neck. To add to the Indian's dlggruntlement, he applied the same hold with s towel, and heaved shoes at the . "deathlock" man between times. Promoter Llllard has announced that the admission has been changed to a unlfonn price for the entire house and expects a good crowd for the double performance.

It consisted of 18 care. Total apple shlpmente for the season, according to the Southern Faclflo railroad, were 301 cars. Ten days ago. the last carload of peara was dispatched. Season ship ments amounted to 3079 cars. Thus in the first week of June has the 1933 fruit crop been cleared from storage and placed on the markets. Pears are now developing fast, ac cording to the county horticulturist, and the prospects of warm weather Is encouraging to growers. Mid-July is expected to see the start of harvest ing the very early varieties. The sea son Is estimated as three weeks ahead of last year. The cool weather of May checked growth slightly. The wheat crop prospects were pro nounced "good" by County Agent Robert O. Fowler today. The same applies to oats and barley. Justin Judy of Qrlffln creek says the barley looks better than usual. He will start binding some barley this week. Threshing is scheduled to start soon after the Fourth of July. The hay crop Is suffering some from the ravages of weevil, according to the county agent.
