NEW YORK, July 84.. (AP)
Pitchers came a dime a dozen at
the Polo Grounds today end were
not worth much more but the Cnl-
caeo Cuba backed up their Ineffec-
tlve defense with heavier hitting
and walloped the Giants 10 to 5 to
stretch their National league . lead
to three full games.
They made It two In a row over
the crippled New Yorkers by club
bing out 13 hits to the Giants' 11.
and bunching their blows to make
runs when they counted.
A pre-game had break turned out
to be a piece of luck for the Cubs.
SMn Hack injured a leg during bat
ting practice and had to be re
placed at third base by Linus Frey.
And Linus played errorless ball
afield and was the No.- 1 man on
the defense.
He touched off the winning three
run rally In the seventh with a
homer, and clubbed out a single In
the ninth to bring In the final
two runs.
Each club sent four pitchers to
the wars, and not one of them
could do anything In the way of
muffling the opposition.

tween 35 and 35 youngsters are sent
through their paces by Balkovlck.
Their ages run from five to 13 years.

both five years old. They get up there
and- belt out basehlts with the best
of them, Mike reports. They can also
field In great style, and run the bases
like midget Ty Cobb.
Lee Reynolds and Don Woods, both

Over the clean turf of the finest
high school baseball park in the state,
the youngsters are learning-baseball
technique from one who knows, and
they love it. Enthusiasm among tbe
kids, Mike says, knows no bounds.
The hardest part of the program, the
coach remarks, is to make the kids
go home wnen practice ts over.
"They want to stay out there all
day and play ball," he said.
The school was started last year
by the Medford Athletic association
to bring to the youth of Medford and
vicinity, clean sports and exercise and
to revive Interest In the national pas
time, especially among the future
stars. All equipment Is furnished free

10 a. m. until , noon every day. Play
ers must furnish oily their own gloves
or mitts, and shoes if they desire
them.
There are two groups of youngsters
who attend the school those from
five to 13 years of age, and those from
13 to 17. The latter group holds work
outs three times a week, and Coach
Balkovlck announced yesterday that
ha was looking for games' for the
team with any other nine in south

PITCHING SPACE
SOFTBALL GAMES !
1 FEET
By a unanimoua vote of Commercial
league team menagera yesterdsy. the
Medford Softball association decided
to change the pitching dlatance from
40 to 37', feet. The vote waa taken
by Rusa Achoeon, association man
ager, who contacted each manager In
dividually. The new rule for hurlers was made
to eliminate overwhelming scores and
give the fana better and faster soft-
ball. In the past, the advantage has
been with tbe batter, and the result
baa been terrific slugging affairs In
which both teams msde a racetrack of
the base paths, with tbe pitching dla
tance shortened by 3 feet, the ad
vantage will swing to the defense and
the pitcher, and produce tighter and
faster battles, with a premium on lone
runs instead of In clusters.
Friday night, two local teams fell
before superior out-of-town outfits
Timber Products, first-half cham
pions of the local Commercial league
were downed by the Redwood Log
gers from Crescent City, 3-6. and
Plche Hardware lost to the Grants
Pass Cave Shop, 0-3.
The Plche-Cave Shop squabble- was
a' great pitchers' battle between Ken
Leavltt of the locals and Dale of
Grants Pass. Dale whiffed 14 batters
and allowed only 3 hits, and Leavltt
fanned 13 and was touched for only
5 safeties. Dale, with a peculiar and
sensational "windmill" delivery, was
the grestest hurler seen In Medford
this year, and had the locals com
pletely bsffled.
Two errors, a single, a triple and a
long fly to right field produced the
Cave Shop runa in the fourth frame,
and aewed up the game.

BUDGE SAVES DAY
FOR AMERICA IN
WIMBLEDON. Eng., July 34 tPy
The United States snd Great Britain,
playing apotty and sometimes hilar
ious tennis, spilt the first two singles
matches of the Davis cup challenge
round today.
Henry Wilfred (Bunny) Austin,
main hope of the defending British,
soundly whipped Frankle Parker, 31-
year-old youngater from Milwaukee,
6-3. 6-3, 7-5. in the opening match;
but Don Budge, the "red terror" from
Oakland, Calif, tied up the series by
subduing young Charles Edgar Hare
after a weird first set, 19-13.0-1.6-3.
This even division, confidently pre
dieted In advance by the experts, left
the rlvala exactly where they started
and America's campaign to regain the
cup for the first time since France
lifted It at Geermantown, Pa., In 1937,
no farther advanced than before.
American supporters, however, are
counting definitely on picking up the
two points still needed In the doubles
on Monday and In the final two sing-
lea matches Tuesday when today'.
pairings win be reversed.
The Mllwsukee youngster, named as
a replacement for Bryan M. (Bltsy)
Grant of Atlanta, never had a chance
against the machine-like Austin-
Bunny ran through ths first two
sets without serious difficulty and
even In the third, when Parker ral
lied in the later stagea, there never
waa any doubt about the outcome.
All ths excitement of the flrat day's
play was furnished by Hare, a big.
handsome southpaw. Given not a
