Meeting In the main event, the two will take up where they left off laat week after battling one hour to a park ling draw. There will be no time limit In effect to hamper the boys tn their feuding. Wild Man Zlm. reputedly the screwiest lunatic In the game, will make hla southern Oregon debut by facing popular Toot, Bates In the middle event. Xn the opener, Danny Savlch will try out his new-found foul tactics on Jack LaRue, also no gentleman. With no local defeat to mar his record, Clemens, the Oklahoma In dlan and master of the devastating paralyser hold, will go to the post tonight bent on keeping clear his clean slate and clamping on. his favorite agonlzer, which he was un able to do last Monday evening Wrestling, amart, In addition to plenty dirty, the New York City Jew managed to forestall every move Clemens made toward applying his paralyser. And because he did, he earned a draw. Both grapplers asked to have the time limit taken off their squabble tonight, which was done, and both are confident ol upsetting the others' aspirations to ward taking over top grappling posi tion In southern Oregon. The bout will be the second ot the year In Medford In which there has been no time limit attached The other was the now famous Belcastro-Smolinskt knock- down and -drag -out.' Although neither ot the two principal's in tonlght'a fin ish brawl can compare with either of the former pair In dirt, local fans oxpect a match no less sensa tional. Kohen and Clemens really have worked up a good, healthy hate for each other. Also causing a flurry of excite ment amon.g Med ford's grappling patrons Is the Wild Man Zlm vs Toots Bates middle event. The Wild Man will be making hla Initial ap pearance In the local ring and It reports regarding the long-hnlred maniac are correct, fans will wit ness one of the most colorful and unorthodox wrestlers now In the game. The volumes of flattering publicity Zlm has been receiving hasn't worried flashy Toot Estea any. however, and the ex-champlon of the Hawaiian Islands figures on making short work of the Wild Man. Estes believes a couple of dropklcka placed underneath the wild one's protective blanket of stringy hair will be sufficient to apell curtains for the newcomer. Jack LaRue and Danny Savlch. both meanlea of the first water i face off In the opener, with neither favored to win. In fact, local addicts would like to see both lose.

Merchant righthander, blew his top and walked four men to force in the deciding tally. The two clubs, displaying major league baseball at times and grammar school stuff at others, battled from the sixth Inning to the tenth with the score deadlocked at 0-all. Hughes In Form Big Jack Hughes worked the en tire game for the Craters and his contribution to the vitally Import ant victory was 10 strikeouts, gain ed via that roaring high hard one, and magnificent hurling In the clutches. Time after time he found himself In unpleasant circumstances. caused by errors and his own wild- ness (he walked five, hit one batter and cut loose with two wild pitches) but Just as often he pitched him self clear. His effectiveness can be realized by the fact that Grants Pass had 13 runners stranded on the bases. Rudy Heyne. league leading hurl er, was yanked after the sixth Inn ing when Medford scored three times to t)e up the battle. Phil Griggs finished for the Merchants. and although allowing only three hits from then on out, was wilder than a March hare. He gave seven free trips to first base, the last one meaning the ball game. Grants Pass went out front In tho third frame when Hughes walk ed Plttman and Ray and Machado sliced a single Into left, scoring Plttman. Medford Scores Three Medford came back In the fourth to tally thrice. Donovan got an In field basehtt, and when Heyne threw wild to second base on Hoffard'a dribbler to the box, Donovan went to third and Hoosler reached sec ond.

Merchant catcher, heaved the hall Into center field trying to catch htm stealing. That made It 3-1. Medford. The Merchants almost went to town In their half of the fourth ! when a walk, single and error loaded j the bases with none away. Hughes calmly forced Hartman to fly out 1 and fanned Plttman and Heyne to save things. However. Grants Pass; took a one run lead In the fifth when they counted three tlmee without the aid of a basehlt. McCarthy drew a baee on balls and Ray was safe on Donovan's error. They moved up a base on a wild pitch and Dick Lewis dropped Marhado's high pop fly to toad the sacks. After Drolett had lined to Rickert. Ostrom smashed a grounder to Lewis, and the shortstop let it sift through his tegs while Mc Carthy and Ray reached home plate. Machadn then scored on a passed ball. That made It 4-8, Grants r as. l.oroU Retain Lead Medford came right back In the sixth tanwi to again take over the lead In the crary ball game. Rickert beat out a base knock to short stop and promptly stole second Donny Donovan came through in the pinch with a single to lert scoring Rickert with the tying run, and went clear to third on the thrown In. Hoffard drove a long fly to Machado In right and Dono van walked In after the catch. Bob Smith walked and Dick Sakralda socked a double Into left field scor ing Smith. Total, three runs. That made It 0-4, Medford. The Merchants again deadlocked the game In the next Inning on Hartman s two-base smash to center.

Balkovlck, who had relieved Acheson, behind the bat, also received four wide ones. Hughes struck out for two away. Lewis, with the count three and two, walked to fill the bases. Wally Rickert, also getting the call to three balls and two strikes, trotted to first on a low-Inside fast one and Sakralda was forced In wltn the winning run. Gltzen fanned to end the Inning. The Merchants went out In order In their half of the tenth and that was the ball game. Wally Rickert kept up his ter rific clouting with four hits tn five trips to the plate, one of them a double.
