(AP) The batters below fourth place In base ball's big leagues are finding It tougher and tougher, week after week, to climb any higher In their chase after the hitting crowns. Although Ducky Medwlck increased his National league lead to 23 points over his nearest rival and Cecil Travis held a 12-polnt bulge In the Amer ican league race, not a change dis turbed the standings of the top four clubbers through this week. Travis, who dropped two points during the week, slipping to .386, was trailed by Lou Gehrig and Joe Di Magglo, the Yankees' chief execu tioners, and Charley Gehrlnger of Detroit. Gehrlnger was the only one of the four to gain during the week, hitting U-for-25 to boost hit mark six points to .305. Medwlck, still riding along over the .400 mark, slipped one point to .401, but his second-place rival, the Cubs Gabby Hartnett, fell 14 points to followed by Pittsburgh Paul Waner and Johnny Mlae of the Car dinals. Reversing the procedure of the past few weeks, the pitchers had their Innings this time, generally slicing generous portions off the leaders' batting marks. Biggest drop was Hartnett's In the National league, and Beau Bell of the Browns In the American. Bell fell from sixth to eighth place with ,342. NEW OPEN A IB ARENA BROWN'S.

Just one-half game back of the Ashland LlUiians, Med fords fighting Craters will face the Grants Pass Merchants at 3:30 this after noon at Grants Pass. Jack Hughes, rlghthanded speed bailer, will open on the Crater mound while Rudy Heyne, league leading hurler with four wins and no losses, will hurl for Grants Pass. A blazing four-run batting rally in the eighth inning broke a 1-1 tie and gave the Medford Craters a 6-1 victory over the Glendale Loggers yesterday afternoon at the high school field. The victory enabled the Craters to remain in the red-hot Southern Oregon league pennant race. Pitcher Larry Pepper, who won his fifth game of the year, scored the winning run. He blasted a double to center field with none away In the eighth and scored on Dick Lewis roaring triple down the left field foul line. WaJly Rlckert laid down a perfect bunt to squeeze Lewis across the plate for the Craters' third run, and went to second when Nun- nenkamp threw wild to first base. Donovan hit to Thirdbaseman Pete, and Rlckert was trapped between second and third. After Hoffard had grounded out, Bob Smith then belt ed a terrific drive over the center- fielders head for a home run, scoring Donovan ahead of him and complet ing the four-run outburst. Until that eighth frame, big Larry Nunnenkamp of the Gleudales and Pepper had hooked up In a great pitchers battle. The Loggers scored their run In the fourth frame when Pierce, Arthur and Robertson hit suc cessive singles. Medford tied It up In the sixth on Rlckert 's single off Pierces' glove. Lewis singled with two gone and Rlckert smashed a drive between first end second, after Lewis had stolen second. Pierce, Glendale flrstbaseman, made a sen sational one-handed stop, but Rlck ert beat Pierce's throw to Nunnen kamp and Lewis crossed the plate with the equalizer. Pepper; using his fast ball and dlpsy-do curve to great advantage, fanned eieht Loggers. He allowed nine hits but was very tough In the clutches. Great fielding behind blm also contributed to the victory. Nun nenkamp gave up seven safeties In his seven Innings of toll, but was Jerked In the eighth Inning with nobody out to make way fur Merle Johnson. It was off Johnson that Smith socked his round-tripper. WaMy Rlckert led the Medford bat ters with three hits In three trips. Including a double. Dick Salt raids came up with a thrilling shoestring catch in the ninth Inning to end the game. Box score: Glendale AB R H PO A E Catherwood K 4 0 2 10 0 Schernrr ss 4 0 114 0 Miller rf 4 0 110 0 L.

In the top squabble, Prankle Clem ena and Sammy Kohen are re matched following their tough one hour draw last week. Both insisted that Pro moter Mack Ullard take the time limit off their go. which ne has done. So tomorrow, the boys will fight It out to the bitter end whether it tAkes 10 seconds or 10 hours. Dirty Danny Savlch and equally unorthodox Jack La Rue will meet In the opening event. The match Is ex pected to be nothing less than legal ized mayhem as neither cares for clean mat work. Promoter LI Hard states that Wild Man Zin Is the greatest wrestling attraction to ever appear tn south ern Oregon. Peculiar In the ring, the long-haired freak Is even more queer when living what he terms an ordin ary life. He resents people, Li Hard said, to such an extent that he dis appears for days at a time. His hair falls below his shoulders, giving him an extremely gruesome appearance. and his wrestling carries out that same theme to perfection. STREAK OF SACS SAN DrEOO. Ca! Aug. 14.
