Stare Crippen pitched fine
two-hit bill game last night
Itlediord a Cratere beat theSend
Elks, 4 to 2. in the first titlt
of their two-game series at the
fairground! park. The teams
clash at 3 o'clock this after
noon. Tommy Hawkins, catcher,
struck the blow that gave the
Craters their sixth Oregon
State league victory in seven
tarts. With two mates aboard
in the sixth inning and the
score tied at 2-all. Hawkins
smashed a double against the
left-center boards to tally both
runners. The hit was especially
welcome to Hawkins, for he
played with the Elks for three
years.
Crippen fanned seven with
his sweeping curve ball and
but for defensive blowup in
the fifth frame he would have
had a shutout. Bend scored both
their runs in this inning, with
out virtue of a hit, as McDon
ald, Cook and Crippen, himself,
committed boots.
Rocky Peterson scored Med
ford's first two runs to put his
team into a 2 to 0 lead. In the
first inning he doubled to left
and came across when short
stop Graser threw wild to first
on McLean's rrounder. Peter
son again started things in the
third with a single to right,
and after Cook sacrificed him
to second he tallied on McLean's
hot single to left-center.
After Bend deadlocked the
count In the fifth the Craters
came back to ice the contest
in the next heat. Patterson
opened with a single to left,
Kerr walked and then Hawkins
got his whopping two-bagger
for the ball game.
Jim Farmer went the route
for the Elks and gave up nine
blows while fanning eight. He
displayed a terrific fait one,
bit the Craters were able to
bunch their clouts for the vic
tory. Bend's only hits came when
Barton singled in the fourth
and Hurney dittoed In the
ninth. Peterson, with two hits,
led the Crater attack and came
up with two beautiful catches
in left field.

TO OPPOSE BEND
Battling tooth and nail for
the first-half pennant in one
of the most bitterly-contested
races In Oregon State league
history, the Medford Craters
collide with Bend's powerful
Elks at the fairground field
this afternoon at 2:U0 In the
second- game of their two-tilt
series. The first fracas was
played last night.
Big Bill Lanning. ace right
hander, or Jimmy Rego, south
paw. Is slated to fling against
Bend today, with the Elks
shooting Bob Houtchens, star
board pitcher, back at the lo
cals.
Prior to last night's game, the
Craters and Albany were dead
locked for first place, each with
five wins and one loss, with
Silverton trailing in second spot
with six victories and two de
feats( and Eugene in third with
five and three. Bend held
fourth position with three and
three.
With the first-half struggle
ending next week-end, the Cra
ters desperately need a victory
this afternoon to remain in the
running. Albany is playing the
Portland Babes this week-end
and is expected to sweep the
two-game series, putting it
squarely up to Medford to at
least break even against the
fast-coming Bend club.
Bend came to Medford
strengthened by the acquisition
of Wally Graier, all-state short
stop of the 1930 season, and
both the defensive and offensive
power of the team Immediately
skyrocketed. Murel Nehl, catch
er and outfielder, has been
Bend's big offensive gun thus
far, with a batting average of
.383. But Andy Hurney, Bill
Hatch, Jack Gordon and Walker
are expected to break loose any
moment.
Medford, also, will take the
field today with a new short
stopAlex McDonald, young
Grass Valley (Ore.) high school
coach and two-year vet of the
Western International leanue.
The Craters have been powered
at the plate by Wray, Crippen,
Cook, McLean and Patterson.
State league batting averages,
not including games of last
night, reveal that Roy Orren.
chunky little Silverton third
baseman, is leading the pack
with a hair-raising .552 from
18 blows in 19 trips. Crippen
of the Craters Is second with
.463, followed by Wray, Rego
and Cook of Medford, all of
whom are batting over .400.

State to take second place with
24 points.
California, the pre-meet fa
vorite, tied with Yale for third
honors with 20 points and New
York university was fifth with
19 points.

Sclaki Mehalikis in tht six

a terrific hit with customers
who witnessed his complete and
thorough victory over Jackson.
The Jap boy, clean as a whistle,
displayed a remarkable variety

speed and cleverness actually
bewildered the Bulldog, and
local clients are of the opinion
that Sugai is definitely on the
road to a word championship.
With Mehalikis as an oppo

The Prince likes nothing better
than to face a clean, clever

should prove to be a hair-raiser.
