Medford Baseball Chief
Cites Obstacles in Path;
Lack Diamond, Players
By HAL HAIGHT
Manager Rogues Baseball Team.
A great deal of criticism has been
heard In regard to the local base
ball team, more so of late since
Beveral games have been lost. Most
of the fans understand the condition
here, but for those who do not, X will
endeavor to explain them.
Baseball Is not played In either
the local grade or high schools (and
why It is not Is a mystery to many)
therefore few young players have been
developed here within the past few
years. Next, there are no baseoau
fields In Medford available for those
who do care to play. The only field
where games can be played la at the
fairgrounds, which la the worst In
southern Oregon.
The Rogues had a fairly good team
early tn the season, but lost many
players, due to the fact that employ
ment could not be found here for
players. Bill Courtney, a Normal
school boy, returned to Portland be
cause he could not get work; Charles
Orr, who succeeded him, did likewise
after playing for six weeks. Paul liens,
a promising Jacksonville boy, found
work In California, while Billy Cal
vert, the most promising young
catcher seen here In years, returned
to Seattle to work, after playing five
games. McLean and Joy became dis
satisfied for the same reason, as have
others.
It Is Impossible to import a player
and secure him a Job when there are
hundreds of local men out of work.
Gate receipts are too small to pay
much for players. One la lucky to
get a $50 gate and after paying the
visiting club their $38 guarantee and
paying for baseballs, etc., there is not
much left. A few years ago when
times were better tha fans would fill
the grandstand, and on Monday the
management would solicit even more
funds from the merchants with which
to pay players. This practice has
not been taken the past two seasons,
and in my opinion should not be fol
lowed. Other teama In the league have
been far more fortunate. Both the
Ewauna and the Shaw Bertram Lum
ber companies employed the best play
era they could find. Both companies
employ around five hundred men or
more and Jobs were made for players.
Ewauna haa two players farmed out
from the Mission team and two from
Sacramento, while Shaw Bertram im
ported four former Three X league
players from the east, besides signing
Swede Rlsberg, former major league
star. Orants Pass has been fortunate
In having four former league players
to build their team from, namely
Ken Williams, Al Droulette, Jake
Oype and Jud Pernoll.
When one takes Into consideration
that the team waa deprived of a
playing field for two months to even
practice on, let alone play their
games, they should be complimented,
Instead of criticized for their past
record.
A scarifer was run over the play
ing field, which dug up the dirt to
a depth of about 10 Inches, to ease
the falls of the rodeo riders during
the Jubilee, and when rain made the
field a sea o: mud approximately
loads of sawdust was dumped, which
j?lves one an Idea of what our ln
flelders now have to contend with.
There are many good fans In Med
ford. They are entitled to better base
ball and should have it, but It's a
tough Job to give it to them under
prevailing conditions.
Why do they ban baseball In the
schools here and deprive the kids from
playing the national pastime? Why
doesn't the city provide playing fields
for youngsters? Probably merely be
cause a few of the city dada and of
ficials don't care for the sport.
It's killing off the game the na
tional game, I might say and Its up
to the loyal baseball fans to cry a
lot louder and longer to rectify this
uncalled for condition.

LIMBER LETHERS
Turning the tables when It came
to rough-stuff, Sad Sam Lethers, 310
pound rubber-legged grappler from
Texas, won two out of three falls
from "Wildcat Pete Belcastro, 107,
In the main event at the Armory last
night, after a melee that ended with
both contestants climbing back Into
the ring barely within the count, from
a jangled heap in the ringside seats.
Lethers took tha odd fall with a body
slam, in 14 minutes.
When Belcastro flattened him with
a body preas after three Sonnenbers.
to win the first fall in 13 minutes,
It waa tha only time tha tall Texan
looked poor. The Italian couldn't tie
up Lethers' rubber legs long enough
to keep him down, the Dalles man
stepped out of all his wrlstlocka, and
Belcastro'a newly -acquired drop-kick
bounced, off tho southerners' aides
with no results. Belcastro kept his
tall adversary at bay with haymakers,
bouncing out of reach when they were
returned, but couldn't stand up
against the onslaught of unorthodox
tactics that Lethers finally turned
loose.
The Texan won tha, second fall In
13 minutes with one of his devastat
ing rolling -scissors, after a three-cornered
stanza with Referee Ray Priable
tangling In all parts of the arena.
Belcastro broke most of Lethers'
holds with wild acramblea out of the
ring, or with clever tooth work on
tender parts of the Texan'a shins,
but got it all in return, even to a
"hangman's hold" between the ropes.
Billy Newman, 203-pound Denver
grappler, won two out of three falls
In the aeml-flnal against "Lightning"
Pat McGlll. 182Vi, youthful Nebras
kan muscle -mangier. The odd fall
came In nine minutes with a Boston
crab.
The Denrerlte picked up McGlll In
an airplane- spin to take tha first
canto, but clamped on a strangle
hold that cost him the second fall,
after three minutes. McGlll tried
everything on his opponent, exhibit
ing a wealth nf technique, but was
unable to compete with Newman's
unorthodox wrestling. The two were
even matches in strength, and tan
gled with a will.
Newman challenged the winner of
the lBelcastro-Lethers fracas, or any
other heavyweight who cares to try
conclusions.
Promoter Mack Llllard was re
warded with one of the largest crowd
ever to wltneaa a local card.

7924b. Tuna Fish
Brought To Gaff
After 3-Day Fight
LIVERPOOL, N. 8., Aug. 10.
(AP) A battle for nearly three
days and nights with a giant tuna
fish, the dream of every deep-scH
angler, has brought Thomas
Howell, Chicago grain market ope
rator, a 703-pound prize. This beat
by 13 pounds the local record-
breaker caught off here a few years
ago by Zane Grey, the novelist.
' Howell and several companions
took turns at the line in a rough
sea and were near exhaustion at
the end of the 63-hour combat,
said to be the longest on record.
The game fish hauled Howell's 38- !
ton yacht, Thalia, for 300 miles be
