MONTIAY, ATTOTTST 1, Kenaston Given New Partner for Attempt to Pin Mean Mat Team BENNY WILSON TO JOIN FORCES WITH GOLD HJLLMAMNE Second Team Match Slated for High School Field To night Ali Pasha and Kelly Will Open Program The two-man grappling team of fiockeye Jack McDonald and Polish palook Joe flmollnskl, Just about th toughest and most brutal pair of muscle -m anglers to ever hoist a leg over a local ring-rope, goes to work against Sgt. Bob Ken as ton-Benny Wilson tandem at the open-air high school stadium tonight as Promoter Mack Llllard present his second sue cesslve stupendous and colossal team brawl. The program opens at 8:30 with All Pasha, villainous Hindu, clashing with Flash Kelly of San Francisco, clean and scientific performer, In tlx round, Australian system bout, Advance reserved scat ticket sales In dlcate a large outpouring of fans, the promoter says. There are 400 reserved and 300 general admission scats, most of which will be filled. Kenaston After Itevcnge The McDonald-SmoIinski team of annihilate will be shooting for Its second straight victory, and mo.it local dyed-tn-the-wools figure It will be successful. Last Monday eve, In what developed Into tho top sqimbbl of all time horenbouts, tho ex-logger and the San Frnnclsco Pole crashed Kenaston and Flash KoIIy Into sub mission, winding up tho evening by rendering the Gold Hill pride and Joy unconscious after UBlng him for tattering ram against the corner of the ropes. Kenaston raged when he regained his senses, and Immediately demand ed a return go against the two who treated him so roughly. He requested another partner, however, as Kelly, a Blender, clean-grappling workman, didn't seem able to cope with tho ferocious attack of McDonald and ISmollnski. Promoter LI 1 Hard asked Benny Wilson, a tough monkey from Texas, if he would like to work with Kenaston against tho two sluggers, and WHson's answer' was that he would like nothing better. Close observers of the mat game here can't see how Kenaston and Wilson stand a chance to whip the McDonald-Smollnskl duo, rogard leas of the fact that Kenaston li always dangerous with his Gold Hill crab and Wilson Is more than a fair hand at the art of dropklcklng an opponent Into submission. They point to the toughness of McDonald, whom nobody seems able to hurt, and the TlclousncAs of Smollnskl. who would rather gougo an eye or pull out handful of hair than sit down to a turkey dinner when he is hungry.

Aug. l.-(AP) Crescent City defeated Olendsle at the coa..t town 12 to g in a southern Oregon league game Sunday. CRATERS BATTER G. PASS PITCHERS FOR 23 TO 12 Locals Continue Hitting Frenzy With Pair of Homers, Triple, 3 Dou bles and 13 Single Raps The burning- question of the hour today around the Southern Oregon baseball circuit Is what can be done about these crazy, crashing Medford Craters? . Since the second-half pennant race got under way a month ago, the Medford powerhouse has accumu lated. In three games, a total of 67 runs and 80 basehlts, an average of 22 1-3 tallies and 20 safeties per battle. And the rest of the league Is getting pop-eyed with amazement as Manager Welly Rlckert's thun derous crew shows absolutely no signs of letting up. Most recent demonstration of Cra ter batting dynamite was exploded yesterday at the high school park, for the benefit of the Grants Pass Merchants and one of the year's largest crowds. Training their sights on a couple of cousinly Merchant pitchers, the Medfords fired two home runs, a triple, three doubles nnd 13 singles to wallop Manager jua rernoirs club, 23 to 12, and move Into tho undisputed lesgue icaa. All Hit at Least Once With the exception of Greeman. who batted only once, every Crater player got at least one hit and scored at least one run. Paul "Hooa ler" Hoffard and Tommy white led the parade with four basehlts apiece In five trips, with Hoosler blasting a homer with two on and White socking . a pair of doubles. Orvall Hampel hit the other Medford home run. In the fourth with one aboard, and Dick Lewis lined out the triple. Orvall Hoffman and Stove Crlp pen, Grants Pass righthanders, had nothing with which to fool the Cra ters. Hoffman lasted four frames, during which time the locals rocked him for three tallies in the first and six in the fourth. Crlppen, who blanked Medford, 4 to 0. several weeks ago. took over the Merchant mound duties In the fifth and was Immediately greeted with four hits good for six tallies. Before he was through, the Craters had scored three In the sixth, two in the seventh and three in the eighth. Brown Has Trouble It was a good thing the, Craters were murdering the offerings of Hoffman and Crlppen, because Low ell Brown, the big southpaw, was treated far from gently by Grants Pass stickers. In his eight Innings of rubber labor. Brown was ham mered for 14 hits and all the 12 Merchant runs, he apparently hav ing one of his rare bad days. The Merchants landed on him for threo runs in the first, one in the fifth, six In the seventh and two in tho eighth. Bill Rathko hurled tho ninth Inning and escaped da'magc. Singles by Howerton, Drolette and Miller, two errors by Lewis and a passed ball enabled tho Merchants to take a 3 to 0 lend In the first Inning, but Medford tied It up In their half when Hoffard poled his homer after Rlckert and Lewis walk ed. Hoffnrd's circuit wallop was a bounding drive Into ccnterfleld which bounced over Roll's head. Hnmpel started Medford's six-run rally in the fourth when he laced a home run drive Into left center field, scoring behind Smith, who reached first on nn error. Rlckert walked. Lewis singled. Hoffard sin gled, scoring Rlckert and White drove a double to left counting Lewis and Horiard. McLean singled White across. O. P. nets Six In 6th Crlppon's trlplo to left nnd How erton s single accounted for a Grants Pass run In the fifth, and tho Mer chant really teed off In tho sixth to tolly six times. Blacksmith got two singles In tho inning and Hoff man. Roll, Howerton, Drolette and Miller all rapped singles to go with hit batsman, a wnlk nnd another Lewis error. The Craters scored six times In tho fifth after two were out. Calvert walked, Rlckert singled, Lewis tripled. Hoffard and Whlto singled and Grants Pass committed three errors to do the business. Singles by Cal vert and Rlckert, Lewis' walk and White's second double punched across threo more Medford runs In the sixth. In the seventh. Hampel dou bled, went to third on Calvert's sac rifice and scored while Rlckert was being thrown out. Medford scored their final three runs In the eighth on Hoffard's hit by pitcher and sin gles by White, McLean, Smith and Brown. Ilntfard Halted Hoffard was halted In the sixth inning yesterday after hitting safely In his last nine consecutive times at bat. His sensational batting string started July 10 against Yreka. when he singled In his last time at bat. Against Ashland last Sunday, he belted four straight basehlts In four trips, and yesterday hit a homer and three singles in his first four Jsunta to the plate. In the sixth nnlng he reached first base on a fielder's choice. In the last two games, he hss collected eight hlu In nine attempta. In the last three games, opposing teams have been unable to get him out at the plate, he having reached first, either through errors, walks, hlu or being hit. 14 straight times.
