Grants Pass, Olendale and Rose burg all ended In the hole, due to the poor showings made by those teams. Roseburg cracked wide open the second-half and dropped seven straight ball games, with attendance falling off In great chunks. Olen dale never did get started and Grants Pass, usually a very good baseball town, was extremely disappointing. They like winners at the Climate City and unless they produce Just that, make themselves conspicuous by their sbaence on Sunday afternoons. HILARITY TO RULE IN 20-30 GAME OF Of all the headaches connected with the operation of a bush leaguo base ball team, undoubtedly the most pain ful Is the matter of making both financial ends meet. When a club breaks even for the year, It la amaz- I ing. When an outfit actually makua money, tnat comes under the head of a miracle. in tnis southern Oregon leunue. wnicn just finished a 15-gume sched ule. Crescent City waa the lone club to do better than pay Its wav. Start- 386 ing with about 8100. raised by popu lar subscription, the Chlnooks took care of all expenses during the race and ended up with 300 In the bank. The faot that Crescent city won the pennant probably was the main fac tor In producing the miracle, al though tho coast town always waa rated a better-than-ordlnary drawing community. SALEM. Aug. 35.

Oswego farmer and a professional wrestler for 10 years, rets his first chance at a world title tonight. He will meet Bronko Nagurskl, newly crowned heavyweight wrestling champion, In a finish match here. The Scots Guards, onoe a famoua regiment In the British army, wire abolished In 1630. While not boasting a miracle, Ash land can point with pardonable pride to Its financial showing. The Llth- lans, with Just a mediocre club the flrst-hslf, finished the season prac tically even with the board. In fact the team treasury Jingled a few dol lars ss the final curtain dropped. With these two exceptions, all other circuit outflta finished In the red. Medford, with a different setup than the other clubs, wound up In the hole, but not much. Medford's expenses were far greater than any other team because of Manager Mike Balkovlck'e salary. Ho was brought here from Willamette university . to handle the youngsters' baseball school and manage the league entry. It was actually for services rendered during the baseball school that Bal kovlck waa paid a salary; his duties on Sunday with the Craters being merely a seoondary objective. Although Medfnrtl's financial statement has not yet been com plied by Austin rrnzlrr, crrc-tary-lrraturer. he stated that the Craters would have earned a lit tle money If payment to llalko vlrk could be disregarded. In other words, the Craters, on their . own. more than, paid their way during the season. However, as the kids' school was Ihe Import ant part of this year's program, money taken In hy the Craters was used to carry the school also, and that outlay will he fig- Cuff Scrlbbllngs: Coach Al Cox of Oregon Normal school at Monmouth will get a sweet end for his grid ma chine this fall ... he Is Stan Kunz--nan, former Medford high star and last year a paas-snatchor de luxe for University of Oregon's yearlings . . .

H. i Philadelphia Thrills, spills and hilarious com' edy will be the order of the day when 18 brave citizens of Medford clamber aboard a like number of donkeys at 6:16 o'clock thla after noon at the high school field for the annual exhibition of donkey baseball. Staged under the sponsorship of the local 30-30 club, the game expected to draw a huge crowd of spectators. The two teams which will risk life and limb atop the stub born burros are Timber Products and Plche Hardware, red-hot soft ball rivals. The game la slated for nine Innings, but If the donkeys run true to form, the boys will be lucky If the encounter runs for more than five. This year's array of mounts Is being furnished by the Peninsula Amusement company of California, and reports are to the effect that the current brutes are far and away the most unwilling to play softball of any to date. With, the excepelon of the pitcher, catcher and batter, every player on the field Is mounted on a donkey. The batter's objective, sfter hitting the ball, Is to mount his nearby steed and proceed to first base be fore the fielders can throw him out. Difficulty Is encountered by both the batter and fielder In that bit of action. If the batter Is sble to mount his donkey, usually an extra ordinary feat In Itself, the problem Immediately arises as to how the donkey can be urged to transport said batter to first base. The ani mal would always rather hang around home plate. So far as the fielders are con cerned, they may chase after batted balls afoot, but must remount their donkeys to throw the pellet. Base men, also mounted on the burros, must receive all throws while astride the animals. All seats will be In the covered grandstands. HOW THEY? (By the Associated Press.) Coast. Team w. L.
