NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 6. (API-
Best guess is that T. O. M. Sopwlth
will be back with another challenge
for America's cup within two years.
He won't commit himself now but
once the cup "bug" has bitten a
yachtsman he's difficult to discour
age. It doesn't seem to make much
difference whether they win or lose.
Sir Thomas Linton oouldnt win and
Harold S. Vanderbllt can't lose, It
seems, but they sppsrently found
It equally as fascinating as It Is ex
pensive. Ranger didn't set sll the records
at this yesr's seagoing eolree. New
highs In editorial fantasy came close
to causing soms International Inci
dents. Sopwlth felt keenly he was
subjected to unjust flights ot criti
cism by rail birds, but refused to
"squawk" public,. Aside from that
sltpup on the last start, Sopwlth and
hla crew made fewer and less con
spicuous mistakes than Skipper
"Mike" Vanderbllt. But Ranger was
the better boat and had the better
sailing equipment. Sopwlth carried
oanvae wardrobe worth 110.000 but
didn't always have the right sail
for the right moment.

Roseburg at Medford.
Grants Pass at Ashland.
Crescent City at Glendale.
Still with a fighting chance at the
second-half pennant of the Southern
Oregon league, Medford 's Craters face
the cellarlte Roseburg Pirates here
Sunday afternoon at the turf high
school field. Opening pitch is slated
for 3:30 sharp.
Manager Mike Balkovick said today
that either Ray Erickson or Jack
Hughes would open on the slab for
the Craters. Manager George Barr
of the Pirates will probably do the
Roseburg pitching. A big righthand
er, Barr has plenty on the ball and,
but for Infield errors last Sunday at
Crescent City, would have upset the
first-half winners. As It was, Cres
cent City only copped by an 8-7
score.
Hughes, who had played no ball
for two years until the Olendale game
two weeks ago, has been working out
dally, and believes he Is fit to see
starting service. Last Sunday he
hurled great ball against ABhland
aftor one bad Inning, and Balkovick
has a lot of confidence in the husky
star-boarder.
If Hughes does not start the battle,
Ray -.rtckson, another righthander,
win answer the opening gong. Un
beatable for six Innings, Erickson
may open the game, with Hughes
taking over in the latter stages.
Although deeply burled In the cir
cuit cellar, the Pirates are not fool
ing Balkovick and the Craters one
little bit. Last Sunday's game with
Crescent City was a perfect example
of the hard luck that has been
hounding the Buccaneers since the
second-half got under way, and the
locals are fully aware that the Jinx
is oouna io do broken some time.
It will be a tough encounter, maybe
one of Medford 's toughest. Because
of that, the Craters have undergone
strenuous wortcouts dally, and are re
ported In fine shape for the game.
Donny Donovan will be at third
base and Alvln Merrltt In left field
for the only changes in the regular
Crater lineup. Donovan was shifted
to the iot corner when Duke Han
klnson returned to Eugene early this
week. Merrltt, a pitcher but a good
hitter, was assigned to the left field
berth. Rubs Acheson will do the
catching, Bob 8mlth will be on first,
Rlckert on second, Lewis at short,
Sakralda In center field and Hoosler
Hoffard In right.

Billy Hulen Sayi:
Shorter Pitching
Fails to Curb
Softball Sluggers
When the Medford Softball asso
ciation changed the pitching dis
tance from 40 to 37 feet at the
start of the second-half schedule
over a week ago, the move was sup
posed to eliminate the wild -eyed,
slugging affairs that had taken place
under the stars at the high school
field. It was regarded as a smart
maneuver by all and sundry. Includ
ing yours truly, who figured that
It would swing the balance of power
to the defense. It was believed that
from then on, fans would witness
brilliant, air-tight pitchers' battles,
something that had been as scarce
as clouts over the distant fence.
To date, and after a thorough
trial of the decreased hurling
distance, about the only differ
ence noticed has been higher
scoring games than ever berore.
Where batters previously had
merely dug In and swung tor
the fence, they now dig trenches
at the plate and level for the
Talent t-lty limits. While nobody
has as yet attained that distance
with the over-grown baseball,
the fences have taken an awful
beating. In fielders have taken
their life In their hands and
scorekeepers have suffered from
writers cramp more than ever
before.
The other night somebody beat
somebody else. 33-3. Night before
last, somebody else licked somebody
else, 30-3. There have been several
battles with over 20 tallies chased
across, and the batters, In general.
have been going slug-nutty. Realiz
ing that something has got to be
done about this here situation. E
H. Hedrlck has made plans to do It
Not this year. It's too late now, but
next season will fans be able to
witness tighter softball affairs.
Hedrlrk's plan, and a mighty
good one. Is simply that he will
hire a top-notch pitcher early in
the spring to come to Medford
and Impart the low down on
this business of fogging under
handed deliveries past the oovs
who swing from the carpet. In
other word, the city school
superintendent plans to open up
a softball pitchers' school, de
velop some talented hurlers for
the local situation, and turn
them loose on the scores of
heavy clubbers.
The Idea should do the Job. It's
apparent there aren't enough good
pitchers in the local circuit to go
the rounds. In the 10-team Com-
merclal league, we would say there
are only four, at the outside, who
can be classed as classy, That leaves
the other six clubs at a decided dis
advantage, and results In slam-bang
affairs that leave a bad taste in
the mouths of spectators and players
alike. Of course, many customers
like free-hitting encounters, and all
like to see some action out there.
But these absurdities, like 33-3 and
30-3 are more than the most rabid
fan can swallow.
The pitchers school Hedrlck has
In mind will be free to all local
burlers who care to attend. It will
last about two weeks, according to
tentative plans, and will embrace
alt angles or the throwing business.
Not Just a good pitcher will be
hired. Hedrlck says, but a real,
honest-to-good ness star from Port
land, Salem. Seattle or some other
city where the game has been played
seriously for years.

Although billed as the opening
event, the Danny Savich versus Carlos
Rodriguez squabble Is stealing much,
of the fan-talk usually reserved for
the main event. It Is a return match
from last Monday evening In which
Savich. returning to Medford after a
long absence, brought gasps of sur
prise from everyone by going dirty
against tho Mexican "hot tarn ale."
It was the first time In the history
of Savich appearances here that he
had deviated from the straight and
narrow, And there has been much
conjecture among paying customers
as to the reason for-Danny's sudden
chameleonic tendencies.
When asked following the match,
which he won, as to what the big
Idea was, the ex-Unlver<y of Utah
football stir remarked that he wasnt
going to let any lowbrow Mexican
beat him, In other words, Danny as
much as admitted that he couldn't
take It any longer, and had to resort
to foul tactics to win his matches,
Rodrlguea Is plenty burned up over
Danny' crack, and asked Llllard for

witness the outcome of this new per
