BRINGS RESPECT FOR
PIE TRAYNOR'S BOYS
By Associated press
It might not be a bad Idea to be
gin taking the Pittsburgh Plrntea
very seriously In the current Na
tional league race. They have been
a terrible disappointment In recent
years, but this Is another go-round
and Pie Traynor'a boys act like
they're not fooling.
Their seventh straight win was
cored yesterday at the expense of
the Chicago Cubs by a score of 8 to
. That put them a full game In
front of the second-place New York
Olants, who wero held Idle by a
practically Invisible rain at tho Polo
Orounda.
What makes the opening burst of
the Pirates bear more weight Is the
fact that they've taken up right
where they left off lost season, when
they closed with 10 straight vic
tories. They're getting consistently
good pitching and the batting has
been hard and timely.
Twice yesterday the Pirates ex
ploded four-run rallies to overtake
and pass the Cubs, the second time
In the eighth Inning.
Johnny Rlseo, slugging rookie out
fielder from Columbus, appears to be
wie most important addition to the
uorsair line-up. He continued his
clouting yesterday with a double thnt
cored two runa.

bout at the Medford armory last

had obtained In nearly a ha If-bom
and In the record books for the bene
fit of posterity the outcome of the
match will be revealed thusly, "Chtck,

It was a lariat apln, and howl Cow

spin on many a grapplcr In the local
squared circle, but none so devas
tating as the one the Arkansas bully
received last .nlghc. Chick hoisted
Hollts to his shoulders and whirled
him, by actual count. 27 times. Then
he slammed him tn the carpet and
started bouncing. Chick usually
bounce's Just once on a helpless op
ponent, but he had an extra good
hate on Hoi Ms. so ho did some fancy
bouncing. He whammed himself
down on the prostrate Hollls four
times and ended up by kicking him
In the ribs. Needless to say, Hollls
was ready to go home following that
demonstration. He couldn't come
back for more action, and probably
wouldn't have wanted to had he been
able.
Until the payoff maneuver of
Chick's the villainous Bulldog
dished out great quantities of pot
son in the form of blows to the tuad
and stomach, pulled a considerable
amount of the champ's hatr, And
gouged eyes with a vengeance. Chick
managed to protect himself because
of classy wrestling ability, but he was

round, but Berry evened matteia in
the fourth with a figure-four leg
breaker. The windup came after Berry bat

Tiger Athletes
Show Class in
Hayward Relays
In case It is not a matter of gen
eral knowledge In these parts, we
would like to go on record as point
ing out the fact that William J
Bowerman, head coach of Medford
high school has
produced quit
a track and field
team this sea
son.
In fact, from
the performance
of Red and Black
o 1 a d runners,
hurdlers, Jumpers
and field men In
the Bill Hayward
relays last Sat
urday at Eugene,
we wouldn't be a
bit surprised to
see the Tigers
run one-two In
the Oregon state high school cham
plonships at Corvallis, May 30 and 21.
Bill took the squad to Eugene Sat
urday to glvp it experience in tough
competition. He figured the gang
would grab off a few points, but he
had no serious hopes of winning. So
what did the Tigers do but run and
Jump the sox off 16 other strong prep
squads from west of the Cascade
bountalns, and finish In first place
witn a total of 22 points to second-
piace Salem's 17, in addition to
cracking the meet record in the 440
yard relay with a mark of 45.9. That
bested the old record set by Chem-
awa in 1936 by 2.1 seconds, and
everybody gave Ray Johnson, Don
Horner. Bob Ettinger and Ray Crosby
a great, big hand. Johnson, start
ing things off. gave the baton and a
10-yard lead to Horner, and when
the race was over the Tigers were
40 yards In front of Salem.
Horner, Don Montelth and
Bob Nenlnnd. the three classiest
high Jumpers In the meet, to
taled 16 feet 11 Inches In the
high-Jump relay, with Montelth
going over at 5 feet 9 Inches for
the best mark. The other Tiger
first plnce was In the Javelin,
with Bill C les, Dan Karhcart
ami Loerfler surprising even their
mentor by hearing the spear 378
feet. -
Bill Hayward, veteran University of
Oregon coach and Instigator of the
meet, was highly impressed by the
Medford team, so much so that he
wanted Bowerman to bring the Ti
gers back next Saturday to tangle
with his freshman outfit. However,

as Medford already had a date with
Grants Pass at the local stadium un
der the lights Friday night. Bower
man had to refuse the Invitation.
This meet coming up Friday
evening, by the way, will be the
first ever held under the lights
In Medford. It should be quite
a spectacle, with the Tigers,
Cavemen and possibly several
performers from Jacksonville
and Phoenix doing their stuff
under the stars and glimmers.
Track and field meets, regard
less of what many persons be
lieve, are really Interesting If
conducted properly, with races
following each other In rapid
fire order and field events being
spaced so that spectators can see
what's going on. Bowerman said
the Friday meet would be staged
In about an hour and a half,
and that's really slamming the
boys through their events.
Sir William corrected an erroneou?
report from Eugene that Medford
arrived too late to compete In the
mile relay. Bill satd the event was
the last on the program, and that
his entrants were standing around
waiting 'for the call, which never
came.
"I was sitting in the last row of
the grandstand." Bill explained
"and when I saw the mile relay
start and Medford not tn there, I
came out of the grandstand pretty
fast. It developed that there hadn't
been a call for the event, and natur
ally Medford's runners didn't know
what to do. Bill Hayward and I had
quite a talk about It, but when it
became apparent that Medford didn't
ned the mile-relay points to win
the meet, there was no use In stir
ring up a beef. We had already won.
so the matter was dropped."
The same sort of a situation oc
curred In the Mod ford -Klamath Falls
ball a-ame Sunday. An error was
made on the part of officials which
could hive been serious, but wasn't.
Dirk Snkralda, tn the eighth
Inning, went to hat out of turn,
stepping to the plate when the
hitter should have been Bill
Rathke. the pitcher, who was
ninth In the batting order, while
Sakralda led off. Scorekeepers
caught the mistake after Sak
ralda had received three pitched
balls, and Umpire Martin, behind
the plate, Immedlatelly palled
Rathke out. That retired the
side with two men on base, and
halted what might ' have been a
nice Medford rally.
As Medford won the game, 8 to 3,
It doesn't matter now, but the umps
did call the play wrong. Nobody
realized It at the time, and It looked
perfectly logical that an out should
be called when a player batted out
of turn. Checking up on the rules
after the game, we found the fol
lowing in section 1, rule 44:
The Batsman Is Out, "If he fall
to take his position at the bat in
the turn In which his name appears
In the batting order. But, tf the
error be discovered the proper bats
man may replace the man at bat be
fore the latter becomes a base-run
ner, In which case the balls and
strikes must be counted In the tlme-
at-bat of the proper batsman."

As It happened, Sakralda had not
yet become a baserunner when the
error was discovered. Instead of
calling Rathke out. Umpire Martin
should have let Rathke take up 8ak
ralda'0 ball-and-stiike count at the
plate. If Sakralda had become a
baserunner, then Rathke would have
been officially out.
No harm was done either In the
baseball case or In the track situa
tion Coach Bowerman 's mile-relay
team ran up against. But, what fire
works would have exploded had Med
ford needed those mile-relay points
or had the Craters been trying to
tie the score or win the game.

BADLY NEEDED TALENI
By the Associated Press.
San Diego, 1937, Pacific coast base

place, flashed an SOS to major
league clubs today for players.
Bill Lane, president of the San
Diego club, wants a catcher to re
place Bill Starr, put out of play by
a broken ankle; an lnflelder, out
fielder and pitcher. It was reported
he was negotiating with the New
York Giants who still owe him two
players in the deal which sent Short
stop George Myatt to the National
league team at the close of last sea
son. The Boston Red Sox have also
been consulted by Lane who released
lnflelder diet Smith, a San Diego
sandlot product, yesterday.
While their boss sought to bolster
them, the Padres move In to San
Francisco tonight.
Sacramento which lost a 13 to 6
exhibition game with Belllngham of
the Western International league last
