One defeat for Medford and the Rogues will be out of the race, which 3ias only five more games to go. Bargent Holds Hope In Sargent, Medford has the best flhange of pace hurler in the league. Last Sunday against Shaw Bertram, he exhibited In the neighborhood, of alx different-speed balls and for tlw entire game, had the visitors off bal ance and figuratively breaking their backs at his queer acting shoots. Sar gent really hasn't a feat ball In com parison to other league hurlers nor has be a terribly sharp breaking ourve. It Is his baffling change of pace and marvelous control- that makes him so effeotlve. Ho halts from Shreveport In the Dixie league where he won U and lost 19 'games last year. 1 Forming the receiving end of the Rogue battery will be the sensational 1 year old Billy Oalvcrt. Calvert Is from Washington where he has seen work In the Timber league and Is the nephew of Dr. Kunz, of Medford - Has Great Arm ";;Th. youngster has a machine gun Ts;t and la a great receiver consider ing the little experience he has had He takes a natural, healthy out at the plate, getting a double and triple last week, and Is oertalnly the moat promising material to be seen in Med ford for. years'. . ; The balance of the Rogue teem will probably spread out In this fashion: Orr, first base; Hulon, second base: Height, short stop; Williams, third fcase; Swanaon, left field; Hoffarri. renter field; and Joy, right field with Joanta and Relnklng In reserve and Paul Hess ready to go on the mound at any time. Catcher Impresses On the mound for Ewauna will be Clyde Carlstrom, with the big, over hand ourve ball. Blanaa will be be hind the bat, Blanaa was sent to Klamath Palls by the San Francisco Missions, whore he lasted this spring until well Into the regular season. He Is probably the best receiver In the league. ; Garment's work la well mapped out (or him It he is to beat Ewauna. In tto first place he must atop Dion Putnam, Paclflo university player who la holding down third base for the Box Makers and hitting at a .413 clip; and In the second place, he must also put a stop to the heavy hitting of Haley, Ewauna flrstbaaeman, who is pestering the pellet for a JB7 mark. Haley la the only player In the league to hit consecutively In every sched uled game. (By the Associated Preaa.) If It's still too early to count them entirely out of the running, the Washington Senators' chances of re taining the American league pennant nevertheless grow slimmer and slim mer each day. The partial collapse ofVwhat waa an all-star pitching staff a year ag.i, and Injuries to key-men, notably Joe Xuhel and Luke Sewall, have con tributed to the champions' poor showing In the last three weeks. Their third aucoeaslre setback and their eleventh defeat In 18 games, an I trouncing from the New York Tankeea yesterday, left the Senators in fifth place, eight extremely large games out of first plaoe. Qua Sonnenberg, grappler, who has gained a national reputation and namesake in his spectacular flying tackle, will find himself up against a thoroughly trained athleta when he appears here against big Don Wag. ner, former O, S. O. grid star, on the wrestling card at the armory next Monday night. Sonnenberg, who weighs in the neighborhood of 310, will be out- hefted 30 pounds by the Oregonlan, who tilts the scales at 330. And at Wagner's 330 pounds, which compoBS a giant frame that glides about with the grace of a panther, are trained knots of muscle, tempered by long years of athletics and montha of work behind a plow on a farm near Corvaills. The farmer-grappler takes a pride in his physique, and It has gained for him the title .of former .northwest champion and a list of victories wherever he has appeared on the mat. If he can beat Sonnenberg next Monday night, It will be the blggeat feather In his cap and tribute to his year ol preparation for Just auch a chance as Monday night's bout offers. But Promtor Mack Lilian!, not sat isfied with this contest alone, has rounded up two grapplera to mix In the 40-mlnute semi-final who would ordinarily afford a main bout in themselves. Ad Herman of Germany and Louie Andrews of Greece, two newcomers to the Medford arena, will be seen in aotton in this part of the triple-event show. t For the 30-mlnute curtain raiser, Rollln Warren, agile Klamath Falls Copco engineer, will grapple Profes sor Edward Newton, Salem teacher. Newton is another newcomor to the local arena and Is an aggressive and sturdy match tor Warren, although a moro recent entrant Into the game. Fans have long awaited this mat, program, and interest has been stir red to a high pitch by Its several postponements. Promoter Lltlard, however, announces that If the in terest is maintained he hopes to bring Jim Londos, world champion, here for a bout during his antici pated western tour. - - - BRITISH TENNIS TITLE RETAINED WIMBLEDON, Eng., July .
