Billy Hulen Says:
Proud Parents
To Eye Drill of
Baseball Pupils
It Is almost unbelievable, the en
thusiasm fhown by some half a hun
dred kids who each morning attend
the baseball school at the high school
turf field. Under the coaching of
big Mlko BaJkovlck, youngsters rang
ing In age from 6 to 13 years, are
quickly and surely going off the deep
end for the natlonul pastime.
That baseball school, started last
year by the Medford Athletic associ
ation and porpetuated this aummer by
the same body and K. H. Hedrlck, city
school 'superintendent, la without
doubt the finest movement for base
ball, and the kids themselves ever
staged In Medford.
After n month nf butting. Meld

with all getting Into action. There
In no admission charge.
We understand thai Interest among
the little fellows U so Intense that
many are at the filed from an hour
to two hours .before regular time,
which was 10 a. m. for awhile, but
waa chawifrt to 0:30 at the kids' In
sistence. They couldn't wait until
10. Even now, ninny Appear around
8 o'clock, and cavort lmpntlently un
til their coach arrives on the scene
A muring, too. Is the fact that the
youngsters really get. down to busl
ncjis once the regular sessions start.
There Is no horwplay. They are out
there to learn how to play baseball
and that's Just what they do, Mlko
hart them nil In the sliding pit the
other morning, and they worked their
hearts out trying to matter the hook
and laden way slides.

Jlmmjr Thompson, according to hta
teammate, Horton Smith has wry
nearly the Ideal build for golf. Jlnv
my la 6 feet, 10 Inches In height and
weighs 18A pounds, admirably pro
portioned, and appearing from all an
gles not unlike an all-Amerlcan half
back.
"IS 1 bad the designing of my own
anatomy," said Horton recently I
think I'd make some radical altera
tions, with golf in mind. I'm tat)
and rangy, and I've bad to work over
my game a lot and try to develop it
to suit the string-bean construction
For pupils of something like that
build. I'd suggest concentration on
the bands, arms and shoulders, rather
minimizing and reducing action be
low the waist Into a sort of mild ac
commodating movement. The abort!
you are for example, on tbe order of
Bobby Crulckshank the more need
you have for a free and full oody
tum. or pivot, and plenty of action
In the legs and hips.
"Jimmy Thompson Is Just about
right, to my way of thinking. He Is
built easily to achieve, and does
achieve, a free, full swing In the
big shots without the exaggeration
of any portion of the swing. HW
amazing distance thus comes natur
ally: he can lay into the ball whole
heartedly, without bothering about
some specially emphasized factor get
ting out of control."
Jimmy Thompson is one of a lour
some of famous golfers who will
..lay an 10-hole, four-ball exhibition
match aa part of the memorial foun

architect In Mediord, August 33.

Medford's Craters, who still have
a fighting chance at the second-halt
Southern Oregon league pennant, will
present a slightly patched lineup
when they face off against Roseburg
here next Sunday. The third base
slot of Duke Hanklnson, who return
ed to Eugene early this week, will
be filled by Oonny Donovan. Dono
van, one of the classiest third sacker
ever seen locally, has been holding
down left field. In Donny's outfield
berth will be Alvln Merrltt. Managir
Balkovlck eoys. Merrlt Is a pitcher,
one of four the Craiers now boatK,
but Is also a good hitter. Balkovlck
said that either Ray Erlckson or Jack
Hughes would open on the mound
against the cellarlte Plratea.
Bob Hardy, star Athland southpaw
received another Pacific Coast league
offer the other dsy this time from
the San Francisco Seals. Charles H
Oraham, president of the club, wrote
the lanky lefthander, and offered him
a tryout with the Seals Immediately.
Hardy, however, la hanging tough on
the "education first" business, so
Gran am 'n overture went for naught.
Seattle, Portland, the St. Louis Browne
and several other outfits have at
tempted to change Hardy's mind, but
it's no use. The lefthander is going
to finish up at dear old Oregon, and
that's that.
Some think Hardy Is wise, some
don't. A college diploma Is nice, but
you can t eat It. You can survive
nicely, however, on the wad of doutfh
they pay southpaw pitchers these
days. Nlco bonuses are also not un
known Just for signing up.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6, (AP) The
varied destinies of the cauliflower
Industry passed today from the grip
of Madison Square Garden which had
held them since the reign of Tex
Rtckard. to Mike Jacobs, the man
who paraded a, brown bomber and
punch Into the dictatorship of tbe
fight game.
Jacobs. In leasing for two seasons
the garden and Its outdoor arena, the
big bowl In Long Island City, as
sumed Rickard'a old post as the fight
game's No. I promoter. He plans In
door boxing shows for the garden
this winter and next and outdoor
New York, a bout wltb Paulino Uzcu-
Jacobs, a ticket-broker, learned the
devious business- methods of the
fight game as Rlckard's partner In
the halcyon days of the million dollar
gates and the 600 millionaires. When
Rlckard died Jacobs went back to a
boom I ng brokers ge bus! ness and
others tried to fill Rlckard's shoes.
One of them waa Jimmy Johnston,
who, as matchmaker for the garden.
Is now a man without a Job. Many
believe Johnston, an astute promoter
In his own right, will join Jacobs. He
Joined Mike once before In promoting
Joe Louis' first Indoor appearance in
New York, a bout with Paulino Zzcu
dun. The shift In power from the gar
den to Jacobs shows once more that
the man who controls the heavy
weight title, by far the richest In the
Industry, controls big time boxing.
Jacobs picked up Louis when the
bomber was almost unknown and
brought him east for his first big
fight against Prlmo Camera. Since
then he has sent the champion
against Baer, Schmellng. Braddock
and others. With the exception of
me ocnmeiing bout, Mike's meal
ticket has been a winner. Always
Louis has made money.
