PAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUXE. jrEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JTTLY 10, 1935? 20-30 BASEMAN OF BURROBASEBALL Fred. Underwood, lanky 20-30 club third baseman, proved the hero of the donkey baseball game last night at the high school diamond aa well an an excellent donkey-buster, when he whanged out a deep right field drive In the extra Inning and pad dled his mount around the circuit for a home run. to break a tie and give his team the game over the Med ford Rotarlans by a 6-5 score. A double header is In atore for the fans tonight when an Eagle' girl team takes the limelight ngalnst women's 20-30 club team In the open ing game, and Modford Actlvlans play the 20-30 club men In the main event. . Through seven Innings of slde-apllt-tlng lips and downs, the two teams battled on even terms, first one side and then the other succeeding In pi loting ono of the stubborn, long-eared beasts across tne home plate. A crowd that packed the grand stand and lined the field was kept In continual mirth by the antics of the donkeys and their Inexperienced but willing riders. Charley Pumas and George Hetuel man, with the latter on the mound, composed the sizzling battery for the Rotarlans, and Chet Leonard, their smiling second baseman, did most of the fancy gallivanting around the bases. He stuck aboard most of the bucking donks but when It came to such a ticklish task as riding the celebrated bucker named Jack Demp teyy the oilman bit the dust In very Undignified poses. In the second Inning Herb Brown, Onderwood and Lyle Llndley each scored to put the 20-30 club In the lead. Det mined to even the count. Oeorge Heuselman then stepped up to the plate for the Rotarlans and connected with a swing that looked good for at least a three-bagger, but. falling to get a good straddle on his mount, he slid off the rear end and was counted out as he Jostled Into , second base. Cordy Sunderman scored and Jack Hughe clouted a homer for 30-30, but Harold Relchsteln of Rotary deadlocked the count, which remain ed tied until the end of the seventh despite the fact that Andy Anderson nearly reached home, not riding, but carrying, an undersized donkey I The lineups: 20-30 : Andy Anderson, catcher; Jack Hughes, pitcher: Herb Brown, first bane; Aubrey Banders, second bane; Del Cox, shortstop: Fred Under wood, third base; Lyle Llndley, lert field; Truett Contrail, center field; Cordy Sunderman. right field.

Sport SLANTS -hu Pan- A year, generally speaking Is no great length of time In the develop ment' of athletic material but the heavyweight boxing situation has ce veloped two miracles in the period. First there was the case of .T!m Brnddock. In less than a year Brad dock come bock from the ranks of fistic discards to win the world's heavyweight chnmplonship from Max, Baor. And now comes Joo Louis. j On July 4th Louis celebrated ihe! annlverRt,ry of his first trofcssional ring appearance with the acctaim of the experts still riuging In his oar a for the complete and masterful way In which he disposed of the giant Primo Camera in six rounds. Many rate Louis the greatest heavyweight fighter of the generation, others ,o a step further and compare him with the greatest of all time. A year ayo he was Just another amateur cham pion with an ambition to make a mark In the "pro" ranks. Hla two-ytur amateur record shows 43 knockouts, seven victories on points and four setbacks In 54 bouts Eleven months of professional box ing added 10 knock-out victims to his lint in 33 bouts, without a single 'oss to mar his record. Thus 63 knock-outs for a career which embraces 77 bouts that's the story ot Uoe Louis' punch I A Muster Itnxer. Too! His smashing victory over Camera did more than prove Louis a great puncher It showed him to be a mas- torful hoxer with a well-night punch- proof defense.

NEW TRACK LUMINARY SETS TWO -MILE MARK NEW YORK, July 10. (AP) A new star has appeared In the track firmament, and his name la Bright Norman Bright of Belllngham, Wn., who wears the colore of the San Francisco Olympic club, raced to a new American two-mile record last night on the rain-soaked track of New York university at Ohio field. Bright, who said he never before had run the two-mile event In com petition, amused timers before the race when he asked that bis time be yelled to him aa he passed each quarter-mile mark. They had expected that the vete ran Joe McCluskey of the New York A. C. would romp In first with plenty to spsre. Bright allowed McCluskey to make derous left handed thrusts, moved Inside and out Just as he pleased. Most fight followers will be rendy- to name Louis the perfect fighting macmne aa soon aa they are convln ced that he can "take It" as well as he deals out punishment. If he con tinues to demolish his opponents with hla crushing punch, and at the same time offering an Impregnable defense he won't have to take great amount of punishment. Until he shows that he cannot take It he should be entitled to the benefit of the doubt. Just to prove that being shorn of nis title hasn't changed Max Baer any the former champion came through with a nifty when asked at ringside what he thought of Louis' exhibition against Camera. "He's truly a great fighter, but I'll make him Jump out of the ring," said Max. "Get that fellow for nie." Just like the Max Baer of old. Eut Promoter Mike Jacobs' offer of a September bout with Louis was not snapped up by Max as readily aa bis remark would Indicate. One Max Or Another. Baer's manager. Ancil Hoffman, told the promoter that Baer could accept no matches until he was cer tain that his hands would be in shape for a battle. The former title holder's hands are In bad shape. One physician recom- i mended an operation on the rtht hand while another suggested that both hands be placed In a cast for several weeks. Hoffman seemed to think that there was little chance of Baer put ting an the gloves again this year. let alone in a couple of months. In the event 'hat Baer will be un- ! able to meet Louis in the fall it is j highly probable that Promoter Jacobs ; will try to bring Max Schmeling i-verj here for the bout.

Eulace Peacock, the latest negro speed sensation, turned In his third victory over Jesse Owena of Ohio State In the century dash, but Owens evened matters for the meet by tak ing the broad Jump. Peacock, fast on the getaway, was nearly overhauled at the tape, winning by a scant foot in 9.7. Owena gathered himself from a slippery takeoff, however, to leap 33 feet 9 Inches in the broad Jump. The best Peacock could do waa 23 feet, 6 inches. Camera bout sold Mike Jacobs on promoting heavyweight bouts. His good friend, the late Tex EMckard. al ways felt that there waa only one real championship spectacle and that between a pair of big boys. Now Jacobs is convinced. V.F.W. TO DEPLORE NEWPORT.
