Grants Pass Merchants to Invade Miljus Boys' Diamond Sundays
FACE FIRST TEST
WINS JUNIOR TENNIS CROWN
E
Tungate and Erickson in
Form for Mound Duty
Hardy Expected to Do
Flinging for Climate Team
The Orsnts Pass Merchant, heavy
hitting squadron of etare from the
Climate City, will Invade Medford
for the Ilret time this year to tangle
with John Miljus" outfit at the
. Senior high achool field a 2:30 Sun
day afternoon. Grant Paas finished
aecond in the southern Oregon league
scramble.
The game will be the llret for the
locals with any league team, and
Miljus is anxious to test the strength
of his club against the invaders. His
two star chuckers, Ray Tungate and
Bay Erickson, he believes to be in
better condition tnan tney nave oeen
tnr several weeks, and the game is
expected to be fast. The school team
started the season with an impressive
string of victories, but has lately
gone Into a minor slump, from which
they expect to emerge Sunday.
Lack of practice, since many of
the locals are now working, has crip
pled the hitting of. the Medford
team, and the added handicap of no
regular catcher is believed to have
aided the slump. Two regular catch
ers, Baylies and Calvert, are out of
the city. Last week Ruasoll Acheson.
Junior high school coach, worked be
hind the plate, and may bo called to
service again Sunday. Acheson has
been working nights and flnda It
difficult to play In the afternoons.
His catching was outstanding last
week. Hartman, who covered back
stop duties for the locals against the
Convicts Tuesday Is regular at first
bsse tor Grants Paas. Rlckert, who
played third for Medford In the Con
vict fray, la Grants Pass' leftflelder.
MUJus was not ready to state today
who would pitch for his squad. He
laid he might atart Tungat and
hold Erickson In reserve, or vice
vorsa. Tho remainder of the local
lineup will probably find Bob Smith
on first. Hess on second, Dick Lewis
on short and either Leever or John
Smith on third. Smith or Leevor
will play left field. Sakralda will
cavort In center field, and Coss will
rosm the right garden.
Grants Pass has not yet announced
a lineup, but It Is believed their ace
t wirier. Hardy, will probably start.
In one leaguo gome thla year the for
mer Ashland high school star whiffed
17 batters, an Impressive record. '

ELEANOR NOT GOING PRO:
WILL CONTINUE DRINKING
By George Klrksey
United rens Start Correspondent.
NEW YORK, Aug. 31. (UP) Eleanor Holm Jiirrett. America's greatest
backstroke swlmmor and world record holder who was barred from the
Olympic team ror drinking returned home today Aboard the Bremen de
termined to retain her amateur standing.
Nervously facing reporters and cam
eramen the pretty brunette mermaid
declared:
1. She will not turn professional.
1.2 She will not quit drinking
champngno.
T want to retain my amateur
standing," said Mrs. jarrett. "I plan to
appeal to the Metropolitan A. A. U.
for reinstatement, and I believe I'll
get It as they are all my friends and
I've done nothing wrong. Regardless
of what happens t do not intend to
quit drinking champagne, t like it."
That was Just what caused Avery
Brundage and the other members of
the American Olympics committee to
dismiss Mrs. Jarrett. She denied she
was "drunk." or participated in an all
night drinking party that ended with
a pokor gamo in tho men's lounge.
"Those things are untrue." she
snapped. "I drank champagne on the
boat all right, but never more than
six or seven glasses. The committee
didn't have any control over tho team,
but t'm not going Into that. I want
to let tho whole thing drop. I'm not
going to sue anybody and I'm not
going to do anything to lose my ama
teur atanding."
Mra. Jarrett described her experi
ences abroad as "heartbreaking."
"They didn't give me a chance.''
she said. "I was the goat. Thoy never
gave mo an official warning at any
time. It was a well known fact that I
drank champagne. I never tried to
keep It secret."
Without directly mentioning Avery
Brundiige, Mrs. Jarrett said sho would
never forgive him.
Told that the A. A. U. had suspend
ed Jesse Owens for failure to compete
in a post-Olympic meet In Sweden,
she asked:
"How can they do that? They can't
Just suspend you because you don't
compete every place they want you
to."

BERRIES AT PEAK;
The following recreational bulletin
was Issued today by Karl L. Janouch,
supervisor of the Rogue River na
tional forest:
"Fishing In general Is falling off
on account of late season and low
water. Diamond lake and North
Umpqua and tributaries are classed
na fair. Rocky Point and Lake of the
Woods continue' good for silvers! des,
bass and perch. Fish lake and Its
outlet 'to the bridge and Big Elk
road are now closed.
In Four-Mile lake the sllverslde
ilshlng is very good by still fishing
with worms. The water from the lake
has been shut off; the road la very
rough but passable. Fishing Is poor
in Big Butte and lower South Fork,
while upper Middle Fork and Seven
lakes remain good. Upper South Fork
and Blue Canyon are fair.
"In the Little Applegate and Glade
forks fishing Is fair and quite a few
are being caught In Elliott creek.
The swimming facilities at the new
McKee bridge campground on the
Applcgate river past Star ranger sta
tion are proving very popular, al
though all the Improvements at this
campground are not yet completed.
"The huckleberry crop Is now at
Its height. There are approximately
eo camps at Huckleberry City and
pickers are averaging about three gal
lons a day. From 10 to 12 thousand
gallons of berries will be taken from
this vicinity this season. A special
forest guard Is now stationed there
to direct plckera to berry patches and
to desirable camping spots. On the
Umpqua divide berries may be found
at Huckleberry' lako and Long
Prairie. In the Butte Falls district
the crop Is only fair because many
of the berries are turning white with
fungus. Scattered patches may be
found at Blue Rock. Blue Canyon,
Parker Meadows, upper South Fork,
Wickiup and Seven lakes.
"Thla year'a fire record on the
Rogue River national forest contin
ues to be excellent, there having
been only one fire during the past
ten days. This fire was caused by a
careless camper leaving his fire un
extinguished, and while it was luck
ily discovered In time to be put out !
before any damage resulted, It might I
easily have burned many acres of !
timber. At this time of year, when I
the forest are extremely dry, great j
care with cigarettes and campftres
Is necessary."

TO REVISE IDEAS
If there remains a skeptic In south
ern Oregon who still clings to the
old notion that wrestling Is a game
In which the participants do little
else besides grunt, howl dramatically
and grovel on the canvas, that skep
tic seems due for a rough shock Mon
day night if he happens to be at the
Armory,
For on that evening four of the
country's ace meanlea will ply their
nefarious trade. Bob Montgomery,
who never grovels on the canvas if
he . can get his opponent there firat
with a lusty kick to the slats, and
Cherokee Ike, bugle mouthed Okla
homa Indian, meet. The aborigine
has the same unorthodox notion of
wrestling that haa mfected Mont
gomery, and he would apparently
rather get heaved out of the arena
onto his skull than apply a standard
grip. The nearest the two get to the
old kind of grappling Is that they
both sweat, profusely, with the added
Innovation that they both bleed
handily.
Joe Hubka, aa polite a young man
aa you would meet In a day s fast
bicycle ride If he la not Imposed
upon, will meet the Hibernian scoun
drel Pat O'Brien In the middle event.
O'Brien, a newcomer. Is said to have
picked up his wrestling while indulg
ing In that old Irish game called
'hurling," In which the object seems
to be to clout the opposition firmly
on the head with a club every time
the referee Is not looking. Cherokee
Ike did that same thing to Hubka
last week, using his gnarled fist for
tho club, but the Bohemian took
umbrage at the liberties, and handed
the Indian an unmerciful whacking.
He may have to do the same to ac
commodate O'Brien.
Fans, who have not had a good
wholehearted "booh" escape from
their systems since the departure of
the master buffon. Ted Christy, will
have their chance to unburden
themselves In the opening tussle be
tween Johnny Boos and George Craig,
the Tulsa blacksmith. For sheer abil
ity to stir Ill-will, Sooa seems In a
class by himself, "Monday, when Pro
moter Mack Llllard announced a
challenge from the bow-legged lit
tle Indlanan, even nla name elicited
some magnlflcant cat calls.
Craig, barrel chested and powerful,
looks as though he could hold up his
end of a rough house dispute, and
his anvil flip last week Impressed the
fans as a good way to reduce an op
ponent to a state of nervous prostra
tion. With a meanle or a super-meanle
on each spot, a big crowd la expected.

TACOMA, Wash., Aug. 21. ()
Using a blow that spilt his glove from
fingertip to wrist, Freddie Steele,
world'a middleweight champion, won
his first battle as a champion here

Brooklyn. New York. 61 seconda after
the aecond round In a scheduled 10

th' floor for a nine count after tak
ing a series of hard lefts and rights to
the body. He managed to hang on the
rest of the round, making Freddie
miss a pair of right uppercuts to the
face and getting In an effective blow
or two himself.
In the second, he showed a mo
mentary aggressive streak, covered
quickly when Steele drove into his
body again, then flopped to the can
vas a second time from a long swing
ing right. He rose to his knee once,
at the count of eight, looked around
and sank back to be counted out. The
blow split Steele's right glove.
The fight, which drew some 3,200
persons, was held to fulfill a promise
Steele made to George Shanklln. vet
ran promoter, before the Tacoma
fighter took the middleweight title
from Eddie (Babe) Rlsko In Seattle
last month. Shanklln, who gave Steele
hla first professional right, was told
Steele would make his first appear
ance as a champion under the same
promotion.
Phlladelphian 6-1. 6-3 and waa lead
ing two games to love when he
twisted his right ankle while reaching
for a fast drive.
Despite two physicians warning he
might be forced out of the national
championships next week. Grant re

EOR BEST YEAR
By Associated Press
Whether Dizzy Dean's "workhorse"
act saves the pennant for the St.
Louis gas house gang. It appears to
be pointing the great one toward the
best season of his big league career.
Old Dlz is turning in those vic
tories at the rate of two a week and
at his current pace may come close
to hitting the 35-mark in games won
for the campaign.
His strikeout and bases-on-balls
records for the season so far com
r"ra favorably with his best year,
1034, when he won 30, lost seven,
fanned 05 batters and walked only
75.
His record for the. current cam
paign Is 21 won against eight lost.
Ho has a winning streak of six
ttralght, and he has his eye on the
Giants' coming road trip, when he'll
be bearing down to end the threat
cf Bill Terry and company on the
National league lead.
