K.niartr Pints 70c Quarts $130 Climaxing an tnaplred drive that has aeen them blast their way Into tie for the leadership, Med fords crashing Craters meet the powerful Crescent City Chinook here Sunday in the final game of the second-half Southern Oregon league schedule. It will be Crescent City's one and only Medford appearance of the year. Action will open at 1 :30 o'clock with the two club starting the re play of the July 18 game at Crescent City which was protested by Med ford, and which E. H. Lamport, presi dent of the league, ordered replayed from the sixth inning on. at which point the protested play occurred. The score wlU be tied, 3-3. Imme diately following that game, the teams will start their regularly sched uled league encounter. Can Clinch Title. After tho toughest stretch battle in many years, the second-half pennant can be clinched by either Medford or Crescent City. A double victory , for either club Sunday will give It the undisputed championship. If the two team divide and AAhland knocks over Glendale at Glendale, a triple tie for first place will exist and a playoff become necessary. Crescent City won the first-half champion ship without the loss of a game, and will meet the second-half champion for the league pennant, provided, of course, the .Chinook don't cop thla half themselves. Manager Mike Bslkovick, who ha led the Crater to a contending poal ltlon for the first time In years, has nominated big Jack Hughes for mound duty in the regular league battle. The fast-balling righthander pitched the locals Into a first-place tie last Sunday by beating Grants Pas. 7-6. in 10 Innings, and Balko- rtck li confident that ha can wallop the coast team. For the abbrevi ated replay of the protested enooun ter, Ray Erlckson will start. Ertck son was In the box at Crescent City when the play occurred that led to the protest, and must throw at least one ball. Larry Pepper. Medford' leading hurler with five victories this year, will be ready for action. He ha practically pitched the Craters to the position they now enjoy, and will undoubtedly see action. For Crescent City, which has drop ped only one game all year, Lefty Mike Koll and Ralph Deo will do the pitching. Koll will be on the rubber In the replay, it la believed, with Deo. a righthander, hurling the regu lar game. Expect Throng. Largest crowd of the -year Is ex pected to pack the stand at the high school turf field for these game that will probably decide the league cham pionship. Of especial Interest to lo cal fans will be the appearance of Orvtlle Pramsted, sensational center fielder for Crescent City. Framsted. only 18 years old, Is leading the cir cuit in batting with a mark of .444 and 1 considered one of the most ! promising youngsters ever developed i In the Southern Oregon league. He has topped league batters for the past ten week, and only since August 1 has he dropped below .500. He Is a left-handed hitter and the fastest man In the league. Man for man. Crescent City Is fig ured the finest team In the loop. It won the first-half championship with eight straight victories and has been defeated only by Ashland this half. Besides the protested game, Medford and Crescent City have met only once before, with the Chinook winning In the last hair of the ninth Inning when Pramsted stole home with the deciding run.

(API A few of the more faintheart ed of Tommy Farr's board of strat egy are heaving sighs of relief tnat the British empire's heavyweight champion wasn't scheduled to do any boxing today. Farr was sparring with Joe Wag ner yesterday when Wagner drove home a left hook to Farr's face and ripped open an Inch-Ions gash under Tommy's right eye. The more hysteri cal camp followers began to talk of a postponement of the Briton's match with Joe Louis next Thursday night. But It quickly developed that the damage was slight. Tommy expect to don the gloves again Saturday, pro tecting the Injury with thin strips of tape.

(AP) The goal posts again will be at ''close range" when the college All-Stars battle the Green Bay Packers, worlo professional srid chamotons. nr. Sni- dier Field the night of September 1. Ai a meeting oi the All-Star coach Ing staff, headed by Gus Dorats of the University of Det.rr.lt. nnri rnach Curley Lambeau of the Paekr ir. was decided to place the uprights on rne goal line instead of on the end lines, their ' position under college rules. Bammy Kohen, who last week proved his claim to the position of southern Oregon top-ranklns grap pier by defeating Frejikie Clemens, will put that honor on the block next Monday evening when he faces Toot Estes, clever ex-champion of tne Hawaiian Island. The two will tangle In the main event. Two ne wcome rs will m a ke t he i r local debut when Marshall Carter, former wrestling instructor of the University of Missouri, tangles with Dangerous Danny Savleh in the center attraction, and Bobby Wagner, a new comer from New Hampshire, faces long haired Wild Man Zlm In the opener. Carter is also an orthodox wrestler, so It will be cleanle versus meante In all three matches. Although losing to Toot Estes last Monday evening. Wild Man Zlm dis played plenty of pure ability. He mixed clean tactics with maneuvers of horror to give Este tough work out and Is expected to prove no setup for Wagner, rated one of the finest on the coast. The main event will see Estes matching dropklck with the ham mer and headlocks of Kohen. a mean little rascal. The New York City Jew Is one of the smartest wrestlers to ever show In Medford and, while not appearing to be so tough, man age to win his squabbles, neverthe less. Este. one of the fair-haired boys, has decided to give Kohen a decisive trimming. Local fans are wondering whether he can do it. Charles Courtnev. master ivir. smith of New York City, ha traveled as far as Bombay and Moscow to open "unopenable" safes and trunks.
