MARSHALL WINS NOD
OVER BANDIT RAMER0
SACRAMENTO, July 33. (API
Scoring seven knockdowns, Lloyd

pounds, won a clrancut 10-romd
decision from Johnny "Bandit" Rs
mero, San Diego 163-poundfr. here
last night.
Bolstered by the return of Tommy

mark of .470, and with a change
In personnel in the Infield, Med ford's
pennant-questing Craters travel to
Ashland Sunday to face their bit
ter Southern Oregon league rivals
In the third game of the second
half race. The game starts at 2:30
sharp.
White, out of action '-or the past
five weeks with a cracked wrist, has
entirely recovered, and will be back
In the lineup In an outfield posi
tion.
The Infield change will see Orvat
Hampel at second base and the
strong-armed Billy Calvert at the
hot corner Instead of Hale Gice
mnu. Calvert was shifted from sec
ond to third when Oreeman didn't
quite measure up to Southern Ore
gon league requirements. Remainder
of the Inner works will remain the
same, with Bob Smith on first nnd
Dick Lewis at short.
Fielders Can Hit
The outfield will be composed of
Hoosler Hoffnrd, White, Dick Sa
kralda and Manager Wally Rlckert.
The Crater skipper Is still unde
cided upon the three starters, but
probably all will see action. Terrific
batting punch will be carried In
the Medford outfield, even though
Sakralda, a light hitter but grand
fly-chaser, performs. In. addition to
White s mark of .470. Rlckert la bat
ting .430 and Hoffard .378. With
White. Hoffard and Rlckert com
posing the outer defense, the trio
will have an average plate punch of
.408, by far the highest In the cir
cuit. Lowell Brown will do the Medford
pitching with Cliff "Chief McLean
back of the plate.' The big Crater
southpaw will be firing for his fifth
league victory, and while Ashland's
second-half record of no wins and
two losses doesn't Indicate he will
have much trouble, he is expecting
one of his toughest games. Both
L.lth lan defeats this half were by
the margin of one run (3 to 1
against Crescent City and 11 to 10
against Grants Pass.)
Second Half Hot
Phil Orlggs. righthander formerly
with Grants Pass, la expected to
pitch for the Llthlans, with Al
Simpson wearing the mask and pro
tector. Msnager Leonard Hall has
released Jack Bnuldlng. second baso
man, Darrell Leavens will be at -the
keystone sack.
With Medford, Grants Pass and
Crescent City all tied for the league
leadership with two wins and no
losses, the second -half race Is be
coming even hotter than the first-
half squabble. However, after games
Sunday, one of those three top teams
will no longer be In the undefeated
class, as Crescent City travels to
Grants Pass.

Only change in laws regarding Chi
nese pheasant hunting will be In
the bag limit, that Is. in Jackson

not more than four male birds in
any seven consecutive days, the new
limit will be four male birds in
one day, but not more than eight
In any seven consecutive days, or In j
possession at any one time. In other
words, pheasant hunters will be
able to bag twice as many this year
as last. Season remains the same.
from October 15 to October 31 In
Jackson and Josephine counties. In
groups of other counties there are
slight changes In Umtt and seasons.
