The grunt and groan maestro Is cooking up a splffy dish for the out-of-doors opening a dtsh the likes of which has never besvi tasted by local fans. He Is figuring on staging one of those famous team matches, one of those meanie versus cleanle affairs that have kept Port land customers In a dither for some time. He tentatively plans to send two clean and scientific matmen against a pair of brutal villains, with orders to shoot the works and let the devil take the hindmost. Just who will battle who la not yet decided, but Sockrye Jack Mc- Donald, the great ex-Seattle logger, j is almost certain to be a member of the meanie duo.

The callfornlans were In the cellar when they played Medford here May 39, and Medford was leading the league. After the game, there was no change In the standings, but Medford had lost Its first circuit battle, the Importance of which didn't become apparent until the final week In the first-half set. when Medford, Crescent City and Grants Pass came up to the payoff game In a triple tie for the lead. And, on that day. Yreka blasted Grants Pass out of the running with a start! I nK 0 to 7 victory at Yreka. The game has been protested, as before mentioned, but that doesn't alter the fact that Yreka has done some pretty neat giant killing. The Craters might have been slight ly over-confident when they faced the supposedly weak-slater Yreka team before, but they won't be this time. Lowell Brown, who outpltched Crescent City's Mike Koll in every respect In the first-half wlndup, only to lose on a lousy umpiring decision, will start on the rubber, end he claims his southpaw arm Is In great shape. If there was ever any doubt of Brown's ability to go the distance. It was erased In that Crescent City game. For 12 Innings he wheeled them 'over in a fashion to make the coast lefthander green wirh envy, and It Is mainly upon his shoulders that the Craters rest their victory hopes Sunday. Brown tells 'em not to worry. INVITE NET FOES TO PLAY AT FAIR SAN FRANCISCO. July 8.

Sockol If that doesn't frighten him Into a neutral corner of his living room, how about some of the things the lieutenant says are symptoms of de mentia puglllstlca? "Scowling, snorting, blowing, grim acing, crouching, and squaring off. he writes, "are commonly witnessed." Finally, If the fighter wants to know the medical analysis of what happens to him when he comes to after being knocked out, he can get it toward the end of the treatise. "Where is he' the defeated in quires, simulating aggressive tactics." Here, however, he'll probably take Issue with Lieut.
