Ten wwka ago tonight February 7,
there occurred In the Medford armory
one erf the most halr-raialng grap
pling brawla In memory of the oldest
local fan.
Tonight, that eupor ilugging match
de luxe will be ro-onacted with the

No Love I,ot
The match between McDonald and
Kenaston Feb, 7 Is still being referred
to as the most vicious ever to take
place here. Hntlng each other furl.
ously, the pair couldn't wait for the
bell to begin the match, but started
slugging as they listened to Referee
Sari Yoakley'a Instructions In the
center of the ring. After a hectic 30
minutes of action that had the entire
armory In an uproar, Kenaston fell
before Sockeye 'a thudding fists and
was carried to the dressing room,
Since then, the Oold Hlller has
been surviving only for another
chance to meet McDonald and his
first move when he discovered his
ankle was again ready, was to chal
lenge Sockeye to a re-match. Mc
Donald, fen ring nobody, readily
agreed to the return engagement, and
It will be staged tonight before what
Promoter Mack LUlard predicts will
be another capacity crowd.
Uerry, Hnllla To Meet
In prelims to the feature attraction
the Impresario has billed Wild Red
Berry and Bulldog Ken Hollls for the
center bout, and Marshall Carter and
Paul Murdock for the opener. Both
these matches will be staged under
the Australian system of six 10-min
ute rounds or the best two out of
three falls.
The Berry-HolIIs tangle Is expected
to produce as much dynamite as the
main go. Berry, undefeated hore, lb
the lone grappler who holds a victory
over McDonald, and as both are ter
rific punchers In addition to being
pretty fair grapplers, another alley
fight Is almost certain to occur.
The Carter-Murdock meeting will
be a great display of clean and scien
tific mat work. Neither is dirty, un
less forced to be so by an opponent,
and both are masters of all the
legitimate wrestling maneuvers.

The game Inaugurated the 1938

and both clubs came through with
a brisk display of the national pas
time. Although Medford never sen
ously threatened the clans B league
team, which has spring-trained for
the past six weeks In southern Call

teresting to watch. Many sensational
plays afield and terrific slugging, es
pecially by the Chlnooks, kept the
opening day crowd on Its toes
throughout.
I Score tn Eighth.
The Craters, behind 10 to 0 as the
eighth Inning opened, staged a spir

and Oltwm spiked the plate.

Until the eighth frame. Medford
was set back on Its heels as Clem j

sharp curve over the plate for six !
Innings before being relieved by
Schutt. Rlckert got a single In the
first, Dick Lewi slnglod In the third,
and Hoffard doubled In the sixth;
and that was the extent of Crater
scoring opportunities.
Ernie Bishop went base hit cracy
to lead all hitters, socking four dou
bles and a single In six trips to the
plate, while Dwlght Aden and Tim
Marble each blasted home runs In
the second Inning. Ray Grlckson,
Crater righthander, survived the first
Inning, but In the second the profes
sionals trained their sights and cut
loose.
With two gone, Plllp singled to
right, Aden crashed a homer Into
left field. Marble hit to right center
field for the round trip. Bishop got
the first of his doubles, and that
was the signal for Ray Tun gate to
take over.
Harris greeted Tungate wtth a sin

Sakralda took Tyock's long fly In
centerfleld to end the Inning, with
four runs In on five base knocks.
The Chlnooks failed to reach Tun

the fourth again opened up. Marble
walked. Bishop scored him wtth a
two bagger to right, and the latter
counted on Rlckert's error.

Tungate shut the Chlnooks out In

Such was the
assurance given
yesterday by Ken
Penner, manager
of the Belllng

ham club of the
Western International circuit shortly
before his team tangled with the
Medford Craters In an exhibition game
nt the high school field.' Penner, posi
tively enthusiastic regarding posslbll
Ity of organising a class D or E circuit
tn southern Oregon and northern
California, explained that Hollywood
was on the lookout for a connection
In a league of that sort, and that
if such a loop were formed next year,
Medford needn't worry about obtain
ing the necessary financial backing
from a Pacific Coast league club.
"Hollywood had a dozen or so
great youngsters In spring train
ing this year," Penner said, "but
no place to put them. They were
a little too ouug and Inexperi
enced for Rcllliighnm and class
B baseball, so they had to be
released. If Hollywood had had
a connection with n class D or E

Medford wants to enter ft class

Holhuoofl would he glad to ar
range a working agreement with

Penner, a former major league and
Pacific Coast league hurler, was ap
pointed by the Hollywood club to
manage Belllngham this season. The

ago, and signed with Hollywood as

Penner said he didn't see why a
class D or B league couldn't be or
ganised In this territory. After geo
graphical situation of the various
southern Oregon and northern Cali
fornia towns waa explained to him,
he said there appeared to be a won
derful opportunity for organized ball
nereaoouu, and laughingly remarked
that If such a circuit were formed,
he, himself, might consider a mana
gerial offer from Medford or some
other club.
"From what MHJus tells me,
there Is some pretty fine fish
ing around here," Penner said,
"and If you fellows deride, to
enter organized baseball And
need a manager, that fishing
business will certainly be a good
talking point, so far as I am
concerned."
Penner went Into financial mat
ters at some length, and explained
that about $1600 or (2000 would be
needed to organize a class D club.
and less for a class E team. He ad
vised Medford to raise such an
amount of mouey, then hook up
wun a uoast league team, which
would guarantee the same amount
for an option on all Medford players
at tne end of the year. In case Med
ford desired the Coast league club
to retain an option on only four or
five players, he said, the amount of
money guaranteed by the Coasters
would be less.
Medford's fine turf ball park came
In for a lot of praise from Penner.

parks I've ever seen in a small city."
