By Hilly Hiilen Roaring yesterday, a fifteen years ago It roared for the Chicago White Sox, the big bat of Swede Kleberg, one of baaeball'a forgotten men, led the Medford' Rogues to a smashing 7-8 victory In fourteen Innings over Shaw Bertram In the greatest game In the history of Klamath Falls, Krom out of the past, from that dark amoar on baseball's slate, the 1919 Chlcogo-Olnclnnatl world aeries scandal when Rlsberg, along with four others, was found guilty of Bell ing out his team to gamblere, stepped this tall, clean looking ball player to Vound out four smashing hits and give a Medford team that had lost two straight, the precious punch that it needed so much. It was Rlsberg in the first Inning, singling to left to start a two run Medford rally; It waa Rlsberg In the third, smashing a two bagger to .right and scoring a moment later on Hof fard'a single; It was Rlsberg In the fifth, hitting behind Calvert on perfect hit and run play to arrango for them both to score on Eubank'a single; and finally. In the fourteenth Inning, It was Bwede Rlsberg, alngllng to right to aet the stage for Ray Eubanks to drill out hla game winning hit, scoring Hoffard, who had forced Rlsberg to second and gone to second on Height' infield out. And that was that. That waa what Swede Rlsberg did. .' -Cliff McLean, until yesterday member of the Rogues, pitched the entire game for Shaw Bertram and pitched hla heart away trying to get revenge on hla former teammates. : And what a grand try he made. He allowed only thirteen hita In his fourtoen lnnlnga of labor and atruck out eleven but, as mentioned above, It waa Just too much Rlsberg. . Starting on the Medford mound and working nine Innings, waa BUI Sargent, who belongs to Shreveport In the Dixie league. Sargent pitched nice ball during hla atay, giving over nia duties to Fain Heaa In the tenth after Shaw Bertram had come from behind to score two runs la the ninth, tying the score and forcing the game into extra innings. Hesa, who la only 19 and Just out of Jacksonville high, got the acid teat and came through like a veteran. He atruck out four and allowed three hlta In his five lnnlnga and once, In the thirteenth, with the baaea loaded and one out, he rose to real heights by striking out Stanlsha and making Cogan ground to Rlsberg. Wakeman aud Donaldson each biased out four hlta to lead the Shaw Bertram players. Included In Wake man's bunch waa a triple and home run,' the lone four bnse clout of the game. It came with the bases empty. The score was tied no lew than four times and from the ninth In ning on, both teams went, runleas until Medford'a winning run in the final frame.

(AP) Advance of the machine age Into Intercollegiate athletic today threat' ened to rout Judge and timers of track event from the apeed courses and drive them Into the stands with the cash customers. Definite Indication of this waa given when officials of the N. C. A.
