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. Box score:

NEW YORK, June II. (APJ-tfMr
a fight in which one principal al-
legiVlly hasn't worked hard enough
to got up a awe at and the other
now Is reported to be overtrained
Prlmo Camera' a heavyweight title
defense against Max Baer is doltvj
right well from a box office stand
point.
The advance sale today was un
derstood to be a shade under $200,
000 with Indications of a "gate" Of
400,000 or more by the time the
boxers enter the ring of Madison
Square Garde n'a Long Island bowl
Thursday night.
Designed per Ha pa as counter-lrrl
tant for the adverse criticism it
tending Baer's training camp clown
ing at Asbury park, advices from
Pompton lakes began to stress the
fear that Camera might b over
trained. Veteran boxers were quoted
to the effect that the giant champ
Ion seemed to have reached the peak
too soon. There was much head ah ak
lng. It was all not very subtle. Tnc
more cynically minded readers of
news from the rival camps decided
that both would entr the ring in
prime condition.

Next Thursday night's double main
event mat cald at the armory will
bring together four of the toughest
and fastest grip and grimace artists
on the coast, when Promoter Mack
Llllard turns loose Bob Kruse, Oswego
broccoli king agalnet another Port
lander, Terrible Ted Thye, and Chief
Little Wolf, colorful Navajo Indian
"deathlock" exponent from Colorado
against Louie 'Miller, fast and furious
Can Francisco grappler.
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.

OUT 1933 Fl
Last of the 1933 apple crop ship
ments of the Rogue River valley went
to market last week. 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. Cutting of
alfalfa Is now underway.
