Hurling for the tnll-end Detroit farm club, the till Ashland south paw worked mostly in relief roles. With Beaumont's Btartlng fllngcrs getting shelled to cover with grent consistency, Bob waa able to see serv ice In 23 games and pitch 79 Inn ings after Joining the team In late June. Complete Texas league aver ages In last week's Sporting News reveal Hardy was credited with three victories against five defeats, and an earnod-run average of 4.33. Bob waa a little wild, probably due to hia being over-anxious to make good in his first fling at or ganized bfiseball. He walked 45 men and hit five others. However, he whiffed 34, which Isn't bad In a loop of this calibre. (Class A-l, only a half-step under Coast league rating). Other vital statistics concerning Hardy show that he faced 374 bat tors, allowed 68 runs, 96 hits and 88 earned runs. He pitched only one complete game. His earned -run aver age, 4.33, as before mentioned, placed him B4th from the top In this re spect. There were six other Beau mont hurlers with better earned-run averages, and five with worse figures. Although always a pretty fair hit ter, Bob found Texas league pitchers rather tough. He collected five hits In 27 trips for a mark of .188. He batted in two runa and scored one himself, and two of his five blows were doubles. He struck out five times. It comes to light that Mi chigan, In that 85 to 0 mas sacre of poor Chicago last week, honestly attempted to keep the score crown, but CDUian I . . . ,atuo oiibis ui the A.

The bleachers, which will be erected on the east side of the field flanking those already available, will boost the seating capacity of the stadium to al most 3,400. The covered grand stand seats 1,260 in comfort, al though 1,400 can crowd in, and the present bleachers can take care of 1,200. The new electrically - operated scoreboard, donated to the school by Fluhrer's bakery, will be in operation for the first time. It will be placed high above the bleachers on the east side of the field, in plain view of everyone in the stadium. Also in use for the first time will be a high-fidelity public address system presented to the school by the Gates Groceterias. Officials named for the clash are George Harrington, referee; Bernie Hughes, umpire, and George Robertson, head lines man. PETE, NAZI TO E Pete Belcastro will get his third crack at Hans Schulz in Medford's grappling arena next Monday night, but unlike their other two matches, both won by the German, this will be staged without a referee in the ring to hinder the nefarious ac tivities of the two badmen. Promoter Muck Lillard an nounced today he had completed arrangements for the fracas, fol lowing Belcastro's proposition along those lines. The promoter said Schulz agreed to the match and that the local boxing and wrestling commission placed its sanction on the no-referee angle. The official will be stationed outside the ring only to declare falls when one or the other wrestler hollers "when," and to keep both boys inside the squared circle. El Pulpo and Cowboy Dude Chick have been signed for the six-round middle event and Duke Pettigrove, a rough boy from New Orleans who has been here before, will meet King Kong Clayton, great Negro mat man, in the opener. STATERS PLAN AERIAL ATTACK AGAINST WSC Corvnllis, Oct. 26. (API Coach Lon Stincr had a pass ing session scheduled for his Oregon State college gridders today, indicating the Beavers, who have depended on their ground attack most of the year, will take to the air here Sat urday against Washington State college. The Staters tossed the ball around plenty in yesterday's practice session. Prep Lead Tied Portland, Oct. 26 -(AP) Grant and Roosevelt were tied today for the leadership of the Portland interscholastic football league, thanks to Grant's 6 to 0 victory over Roosevelt yester day.

(AF) Despite the longstanding ob jections of Manager Bill Terry, the New York Giants have de cided to install a bang-up light ing system in tne Polo grounds and play a full quota of night games next summer. The Giants thus become the last of the big league clubs to haul down their sunlit banner and succumb to the arcs. Up to now Terry stubbornly has re fused to expose his athletes to the night air, but he evidently has been overruled at last. An official announcement will be made in about a week. This will leave the Yankee stadium alone of the three local ball plants without a lighting system. Brooklyn made a mint of money with its night games at Ehbets field the past season. Company Inter -League Competition MacPhairs Latest Scheme By Judson Bailey New York, Oct. 28. (AP) Startled out of a sound off season slumber by the alarm of Brooklyn's early rising Leland Stan ford MacPhail, who wants to supplement the world series with games between the other clubs, most of the major league mag nates are cautious. Some of them have been burn ed before by their own criticism of the redhead's red-hot schemes such as night baseball and are willing to give his latest brainchild a hearing. This is what MacPhail said he intended to have anyway at the annual meetings at Cincinnati in December, when he will propose that the first place clubs play each other, as now, and the sec ond, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth place clubs also meet. "Interleague c o m p e t i tion should not be confined to two clubs. A series of inter-league games in which all clubs par ticipate would fairly determine the question of supremacy each season," argued MacPhail.
