JfEDFOUD MATL TRTRUXE. MEDFOKD OREGON, MONDAY, MAY 2, 1938. PXGE TWO Champion Chick HOLLIS, KENASTON DUE FOR BATTLE IN MIDDLE EVENT Bobby Chick Will Clash With Swedish Villain in Curtain Raiser On Weekly Armory Mat Program Cowboy Dude Chick makes his lust appearance In the Med ford arm ory before putting hta world'i Junior heavyweight title on the block In Hollywood Legion stadium Mny 9, vhcfl he faces the Black Secret to night in the main event of Pro moter Mack Li Hard 'a weekly wrestling presentation. The card starts at 8:30. Bulldog . Ken Hollls, Arkansas bad man, face Sgt. Bob Kenaston of Oold Hill In the center engagement, and Bobby Chick, brother of Dude, clashes with Frits Hansen, villainous Swede, In the opener. Tonight will mark the first show ing hers of the Black Secret, a 185 pound bundle of grappling dynamite, who has been plying his trade in Montana and Washington. Since the Black Dragon wan In the vicinity last year, local mat fans have not seen a masked grappler, and a capacity crowd Is expected for the Secret's debut. Reports which have sifted In In dicate the hooded one Is consider ably cleaner than the general run of masked bad mon. He ts supposed to rely almost entirely on scientific ma neuvera, turning on the villainous hent only when forced to do so by A dirty opponent. While the main event figures to be a nice exhibition of grappling as displayed In the best circles, such Is not the case in the middle attrac tion. With Hollls and Kenaston as principals, the match has all the earmarks of developing into a brutal brawl, with the ex-marine officer from Gold Hill pitting his devastat ing crab bold against the halr-pull-lng. eye-gouging and punching abil ity of Hollls. PrltB Hansen will undoubtedly turn the opener Into another rough and tumble. Bobby Chick likes the going to be clean, but when his foe turns dirty and resorts to unorthodox ma neuvers, Chick is far from helpless. First two matches will be under the Australian system of six 10 mlnute rounds, with the, main ovent going one hour, or the best two out of three falls.

It costs $2& to nominate a thoroughbred for the Derby and $A00 more to start him. In addition, there are many more liabilities, such as the original cost of the home, if ho wus purchased at an auction for several thousand dollnrs; caring for him for two years before he starts propping for the race: traveling cxnonmi and equip ment coit.

Arba Ager and Lowell Brown both got their first basehlts of the season yesterday, and are now fully relaxed and anxious to start tearing down the fences, now that the Ice Is broken. For the second straight Sun day, Cliff "Chief" McLean went hit less, but don't worry. The Chief nover was an early-season sticker, and he'll come out of It, maytte next Sunday at Ashland, where there is a beautiful, short left field wall. Jack Bauldlng, manager of the Ashland . club, tells us the Llthlans are stronger right now than at .the same time last year, and intimates nobody need worry about them being in tho pennant battle. He is espec ially sold on McNoca, the third base man obtained from Medford. who. he says, will be one of the Llthlans strongest hitters. It's funny how a change of climate and scenery helps, sometimes. McNees was pretty weak with tho stick in early season work outs with the' Crater club. 1 PERFORM IN RAIN Ten' of the smallbore riflemen and rlflewomen proved they could take It yeRterday morning by firing through the Dewar course in a downpour of ralln that a;aked targets and shoot ers alike, and made scoring difficult on the wet paper. There was little complaint of the new tournament type target frames, used yesterday for the first time, to tal scores maintaining their high av erage with the two tough Tuttles ton.

Only a handful of the faithful turned out for the Craters' final tuneup game prior 'to the league Inaugural next Sunday at Ashland. Although outhlt, 8 to 6. the Cra ters won rather easily as HUt booted the slippery agate eeven times. Ray Erickson. Larry Pepper, Bill Rathke and Lowell Brown tolled on the Med ford mound, and dtd a pretty good Job of scattering Hilt's eight blows. Erickson was nicked for five In the first five frames, Pepper for three In the sixth and seventh, and Rathke and Brown came through unscathed In the last two heats. Brown, the big southpaw first Backer, hurled the ninth Inning and whiffed the only three batters to face him on 10 pitched balls. His first throw was a ball, then he fired nine straight strikes past the . bewildered HUt stickers. Four In First The Craters clinched the ball game In the first round, when they tallied four times on two singles, two walks, an error and a wild pitch. With two gone. Dick Lewis drew a base on balls, Hoffard was safe when Brown dropped bis towering drive Into right field, and Lewis scored when Mar hall Morgan, HUt pitcher, cut loose with a wild pitch. Hoffard went to third and. after Cliff McLean walked, Lowell Brown rifled a elngle to right, scoring Hoffard and McLean. Brown stole second and scored on Arba Acer's single to right. Hilt had tallied once In their half on Coleman's single to left, Robins on's sacrifice, a long fly to right which put Coleman on third, and Erlckson's wild pitch. They kept pecking away and picked up another in the fifth when Morgan singled stole second and scored on Langct, single to center. They scored their final run in the sixth off Popper Robinson got hit by one of Pepper's; fHSt bells and Blancnard ran ror mm. O. Trlnca hit one down to Ager on third, and When Arba heaved It over Brown's head on first. Blanchard completed the circuit. Iced In Seventh With the score 4 to 3. the Craters iced the encounter In the seventh with a two-run burst. Sokralda walk ed, but was forced at second by Rtckert. Lewis smashed a two-bagger Into left and Rlckert pulled up at third. Hcosler Hoffard then came through with a bounding single Into center field, and Lewis and Rlckert tallied. It was Hoosler's only blow, but again It came In the pinch. Just to make sure, Medford got two more runs in the eighth, and without tho aid of a basehlt. Ager reached first on an error at short stop, Bill Plche bnttlng for Rathke, Jockeyed himself Into free transpor tation. Bnd they both crossed the pltitc when R. Trlnca, Hilt short patcher, picked daisies as Sakrnlda's grounder buzzed between .ills legs That made It 8 to 3. and Lowell Brown personally saw to It that Hilt didn't do anything In the ninth. Morgan, the big right-handed Hilt chucker, was effective enough to win most ball games, but his teammates' errors nullified his good work. Erick son also worked nicely in his five In nings on the Crater rubber. The Craters will this week gallop through Intensive workouts In prepa ration for the league opening next Sunday.
