Red -headed Steve Crlppen. veteran righthander, pitched brilliant four- hit baseball yesterday at Grants Pass to give the Merchants a 4 to 0 shutout victory over. Medford's Cra ters, and catapult hla club Into a first-place deadlock with the locals and Crescent City In the terrific first half Southern Oregon league pennant raoe. Crescent City defeated Olendalo at Crescent City, 6 to 3. to throw the chase Into a three-way tie, with the trio of leaders having five wins and two losses. The first half ends next Sunday, with Crescent City playing at Medford and Oronta Pass traveling to Yreka. The Craters never had a chance as Crlppen, an ex-Clnclnnatl Red hurler shoved h la need le -sharp hook a nd whistling fast one across the corners with deadly effectiveness. He fanned only three, but the Med fords were popping up or hitting In the dirt all afternoon, and managed to advance only one runner as far as third base. Bill Rathke, Crater righthander, hurled the first six Innings and was tagged for 7 safeties and three runs. Southpaw Lowell Brown worked the last two frames and wax touched for three -blows and one tally. Chances Go Glimmering Medford's only chances to score came In the second and sixth Innings when they got their four hits. In the second, Hoffard singled to right, and after McLean filed out, Calvert beat out a hit to second base. Hof fard went to third on Ager's Infield out, but Bob Smith grounded out to retire the side. With two gone In the sixth, Rlckert and Lewis singled, but Howerton took Hoffard 's smash to force Rlckert at third. In all other Innings, the Craters were throttled completely by the Merchant ace. Grants Pasa got Us Initial run In the third when Roll, on base on fielders choice, stole second and scored when Calvert dropped Hower ton's vicious smash to center. The Merchants unleashed a vigor ous attack on Rathke In the sixth, five straight hlta accounting for two runs. Howerton started It with double to left, the only extra-base hit of the game, went to third on Dro lette'a single to right, and tallied on Ostrom's single to right center. Crlp pen singled Infield, and Blacksmith rifled a single to right counting Drolette. Get Two at Plate Here occurred one of the freakiest double plays seen in the circuit In years. After Blacksmith hit his liner scoring Drolette, Ostrom and Crlppen also attempted to reach the plate on the blngle. Calvert picked up the ball in center field and lined it back to the Infield. Bob Smith cut off the throw and relayed It to Chief Mc Lean, and the Indian catcher tagged out Ostrom and Crlppen as they came steaming Into the plate about 15 feet apart. Final Grants pass marker came In the eighth off Brown, when Hower ton singled and scored on Drolette' single, Calvert'a throw-In from the outfield hitting Howerton on the leg he went Into third base, and bounding away. Circus Catches Seen Both clubs came up with several fielding gems. MedfoM especially. Bob Smith made a great one-handed catch of a foul fly, McLean caught two foul balls up against the grand stand that were beauts, and Sakraida, In left field, came up with a spectac ular putout on a long drive down the foul line.

Aatrolog Ically speaking, the German chal lenger will "be come the first heavyweight 1 n modern fight history to regain his world chom- shlp; he will knock out the Brown Bomber In I either the fourth or seventh heat or, falling In that, will positively win the decision In 15 rounds. Such Is the prediction of C. G. Ma uk, local astrologlst, after care fully analyzing the respective horo scopes of Joe and Max. Maak claims to have correctly forecast the out come of the last IB heavyweight championship embrogllos. Including the upset KO Schmellng handed Louis two years ago and the Louts decision over Tonypandy Tommy Farr last summer. Maak wes In Eu gene at the time of the latter fight, and hns a copy of the Eugene, Dally News In which Is printed his before hond prediction that the battle would go 15 rounds, with Louis win ning the decision, which it did, and which Louis did. So, maybe the as trologer has really got something. Ruth, back In harness again as coach of the Brooklyn Dodgers. He took the Job Saturday at el 3,000 for the rest of the season, appeared on the baselines yesterday and Immediately ! regained his old spot as the main i attraction on the ball field. The young fellow la Cincinnati's remarkable Johnny Vander Meer, who couldn't make it three no-hitters in a row; but. came close enough to give the Boston Bees a good scare when he let them down with four blows to win. 14-1. It was the Babe some 28.000 Brooklyn fans were out to see. But they also saw a couple of good ball games as Glenn Press nell's flinging and a slugging spurt that must have made the old Yankee clouter feel right at home, gave the Dodgers a 6-3 opening triumph over the Chi cago Cubs. Vander Meer. who pitched two consecutive hltlesa games, finally was touched in the fourth inning yesterday when Debs Onrms singled. He made a new National league rec ord of 31 2-3 consecutive no-hlt Innings. Just short of Cy Young's major league mark of 23 that has stood since 1904. And he went 32 Innings before he was scored upon. Anyway, whether you believe In (his star business or not, .Mask's prognostication should be as nccurute as most of them, and more so than the majority of predictions ns released by sports writers, notoriously the world's lousiest plekslcrs. Here is what Maak says regarding the fight, after reading th horo scopes of the fighters and setting up charts for each: ' "First, I earefully analyzed each separate chart from the standpoint of native intelligence, as wen as physical prowess and the staying quality of each contestant. Next, I set up a chart for the exact time of the fight which, as near as I could learn, was scheduled for 10 o'clock eastern daylight saving time. The last mentioned chart shows that the 18th Scorpion will be on the mid- heaven at the beginning with 2347 Capricorn on the ascendant. "Now serologically, these two points are of the utmost Importance, the mldhcaven, especially, since here the honors are won or lost. The winning depends, astrologically, on who has the best aspects at this point In the horoscope. Each four minutes, a new degree appears on the mldhcaven, which corresponds in fighting to one complete round. "Now, watch closely. Towards the last hair of the fourth round, Louis will be knocked down, and perhaps It mrans KO for him right then. If not, he will rally for the next three rounds, and then when the flRht U seven rounds old. Srhmellng will finish him. Should something happen to prevent this, and nothing Is shown In the chart that It will, then Louis will have a new lease on life, for nothing of Import ance will take pluce until the , sign on the nildheaven changes I to Sncltarhis, and this takes place In (he 12th round. Louis has two chances to win now, if he has the strength left. Falling to make ue of It here In the Nth. Max will take all the Initia tive from him and win the fight on points.

Brokers attributed the upswing to no particular newa event, but rather to an assortment of optimistic signs that led many observers to conclude the backbone of the lengthy recession may have been broken and a forward push In business and Industry likely to get under way much sooner than anticipated.

At Olendlve, 80 miles northeast of Miles City, the sheriff's office said a woman's body hed been taken from the Yellowstone river into which Custer creek flows. Of the 65 or more Injured who were taken Into Miles City in a hospital train yesterday, 30 remained In a h capital today, two of them critically Injured. One unidentified man's back was broken. Tell Tragic Tales At the hospital, and at the Miles City morgue where relatives came to claim their dead, stories of tragedy and of heroism were told by the survivors. Ten-year-old Anne Lad as, whose mother was dead and whose father was missing, related how she tried desperately to keep her mother's eat above the swirling water. When the mother, Mrs. Thomas Ladas, fainted from shock, the small girl grabbed her hair and held her head above water for several minutes. Anne's brother, 9-year-old George, suffered a broken arm. Unable to comprehend the tragedy, he kept crying, "I want my mamma and daddy." 'But you haven't any mamma and daddy any more," the boy's sister tried bravely to explain. The family was en route home to Belllngham, Wash., from a visit to Greece. Porter In Heroic Role A Negro porter on the train, Lew Williams, was credited by survivors with pcsslbly saving several lives by calmly directing passengers out of his car. One of the cars teetered on the creek bank several minutes before It slid Into the water with the others. Seven Milwaukee railroad employes who knew Custer creek as a ravine that usually carried no more than "a bucket of "water," were riding the Olympian as passengers. They Joined U-egular trainmen m helping out the , Survivors, and two of them tele phoned first news of the tragedy to Miles City. Mike Cain and Ed Hamm, brake men, crawled over the twisted pile of steel cars, made their way to Sang us, a small station, and tele phoned for help. William Shearer, veteran Milwaukee engineer, said the railroad men were "chewing the fat" in the first day ccach when the crash occurred. Never Flooded Before "I tluu-.t w were Just on the ground at first," Shearer said. "Then I realized we were in water and I said, 'Boys, we're in the old Yellow stone' "It was a few minutes before I found cut it was Custer creek. Why, I've put a train over these tracks thousands of times, and I never saw more than a bucket of water In that creek at once," Shearer said. "Well, we all crawled out of our coach.
