MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON1, MONDAY. JUNE 3, 1940. Six Clean Matmen to Provide Grapple Thrills in Armory Tonight PAGE TWO PILUSO, PANTHER SUTED TO WORK TOP MAIN EVENT Don Sugai Battles Mehalikis in Center Bout Herb . Parks Opens With Chick i - Wrestling as It w original ly planned, tani all dirt and foul tactics, will be served local patroni of tha Medford armory arena tonight at lix clean and scientific matmen collide In three sparkling matcnes. Activ ity will get under way at 8:30 harp. - The program, working from the top down, will be like this: Ernie Plluso versus Jimmy Mitchell (Black Panther). Don Sugal versus Prince Se- lakl Mehalikis. Herb Parks versus Bobby Chick. The main event, slated for n hour or the best two out of three falls, may develop into the finest legitimate tusslo seen here this year. The two supple menting bouts, of six 10-minute rounds or two out of three falls, re certain to be not far be hind as regards spine-tingling action. Teat Far Cleenles Tonight's program will have a certain amount of significance In that it will indicate whether fans prefer scientific wrestling or the "meanie" type of squab bling. Many local clients have expressed their desire to see more clean grappling Instead of the dirty work, and Promoter Mack Llllard considers this card sort of test ease. If the turnout Is large, the promoter plans to produce more of the same. Practically every scientific hold In the book will be on dis play when the six gentlemanly gladiators come to grips, and many special maneuvers will get an airing. Sugars Jul Jutsu sleeper will be one of the most potent holds on view, although Bobby Chick's airplane spin, Prince Mehalikis' camel lock nd the Black Panther's noggin knocker and headlock will re ceive their share of rapt at tention. Interest Hot Dyed in the wool wrestling payees are showing almost as much interest In the middle vent, between Sugal and Me halikis, as they are in the Pilu-ao-Panther top struggle. The Japanese boy from Salem ac cumulated a vast following last Monday night when he out wrestled Bulldog Jackson by a country mile, and fans have not been hesitant in acclaiming him one of the finest gripplers ever to appear here. They look for Mehalikis, Arabian prince, to have a severe battle on his hands.

SUB-PAR STROKING!CROISANT BLASTS GIVES HARRINGTON PERL GOLF TITLE Heinie Fluhrer Falls; 8 and 7 Winner Fires 33 On First Nine, 66 On 18 By virtue of probably the most brilliant golf shot at the Rogue Valley club this year, George Harrington ' yesterday won the annual John A. and Frank Perl spring handicap tournament by defeating W. H. (Heinie) Fluhrer in the 18-hole finals, 8 and 7, Harrington suc ceeds Rawles Moore as the title holder. Despite the fact that he had to give away 20 strokes to his opponent, the young clubber and new champion rushed through the match without loss of a hole. The struggle ended on the 11th green when, with Harrington 8 up, the pair halved the hole. George's vic tory was the first In the history of the event for a low handicap player. With his driver imitating a siege gun and his putter smok- ing hot Harrington negotiated the first nine holes in 33, three under regulation figures. On ihim atrAtoh ha lrnnj-lrri nff thrp birdies on the fourth, sixth i and ninth and went through the other holes in par. Fluhrer, a 25-handicap man to Harrington's 2-handicap, put up a game fight to hold the high-flying George, but he sim ply couldn't stand the torrid pace. The loser is new to com petitive golf this year and he didn't have the weapons to cope with the almost Incredible shots spitting off the Harrington clubs. Misses Record Although the match was all over on the 11th green, the pair played out the string inform ally and Harrington duplicated his first-nine feat of shooting a 33. On this back nine George fired four more birdies to com plete the 18 holes with a spec tacular 68, but he missed tying or breaking the course record of 64, held by the late H. Chand-. ler Egan, v hen he took fives on the par four 11th, 13th and 16th holes. Fluhrer, also, stepped up his game on the back nine, shoot ing a fine 40, only six over par a very good performance for a 23-handicap player. On the first nine the bakeryman took a 52, which was consider - uiy ucuw .... Fluhrer s total score for the 18 holes was 92. Harrington, finishing the front nine 7 up, went to work at the start.

Tv.-a holes later the match ended. Harrington birdied the par-three 10th while Fluhrer went one over perfect golf, and on the 11th Harrington took a five on the par-four hole but won as Fluhrer shot a six for a half. The result of the match was viewed by 19th-hole members anmrtliine nf an unset, as - -- ' - it was believed that Fluhrer. getting one stroke on- every hole but the 6th and 9th and two on those would have too great a handicap for his young op ponent to overcome. But the dopesters failed to reckon with the calibre of golf Harrington proved he was capable of dis playing, and the issue was never in doubt after the first few holes.

Another luscious pitching per formance this time a seven-hit trick by Big Bill Lanning gave Medford s Craters a 2-0 conquest of the Bend Elks here yesterday afternoon and enabled the locals to keep pace with the Albany Alco-Oaks in their white-hot struggle for the first-half pen nant in the Oregon State Base ball league. Lanning's victory over Bend gave the Craters a clean sweep in the two-game series, Steve Crippen having nicked the Elks for a 4 to 2 win Saturday night. With Albany grabbing a couple from the Portland Babes, 6 to 2 and 7 to 3, the two clubs re mained deadlocked for the loop leadership with seven and one. In registering his second tri umph of the season, Lanning be came the first Crater flinger to blank the opposition and the sixth to go the full nine innings out of eight starts. The seven blows he allowed were scat tered almost perfectly, and so tough was he in the clutches that Bend had 11 runners strand cd on the bases. Bill was a little wild, walking five men, but whenever he had to bear down with runners on he did so. Only two Elk players reached third base, one in the first inning and the other in the third. At all other times he was in no danger of being scored on. Ted Kerr, Medford's 18-year-old outfielder-catcher, paced the Craters' 11-hit attack on Bob Murdock, slender righthander who toiled the distance for Bend Kerr socked a double and two singles in four trips and belted in Medford's first and winning run in the fourth Inning. Pat Patterson, first baseman, boom ed out a double and single and Alex McDonald, shortstop, hit a pair of singles. The Craters were stopped cold by Murdock in the first three innings but in the fourth they suddenly exploded for the tally which ultimately brought victory. With one away Patter son doubled to right-center and McDonald rifled a short single to right, moving Patterson to third. Kerr then singled snarly to left and Patterson scored. Although, as events proved, they didn't need it, the Craters got another run in the sixth. Mc Donald singled to left with none gone and Kerr blasted a double to the same field, sending Mc Donald to third. Tommy Hawk ins grounded out, McDonald scoring. Both teams turned in flawless defensive performances and sev eral spectacular fielding plays were pulled. Bend came up with two double plays and Medford one. an unassisted twin-killing by Second Baseman Riney Cook in the eighth inning. Cook spear ed a line drive off Walker's willow and tagged Hurney. who had been parked on first. Cook, all told, handled nine chances perfectly. McDonald made two great stops at shortstop. Lanning was in trouble only twice. In the first inning he walked Burton and Hatch, but n force-out and an infield out got him out of hot water. In the third Burton singled infield and went to third on Hurney 's single to right, but Walker grounded out to end the inning. In no other frame did the Elks get more tlian one blow. Oscar (Red) Miller pitched Albany to a 6 to 2 win over the I Eabes Saturday night, allowing five hits, while Dick Johnson hurled a six-hitter Sunday to give the Oaks a 7 to 3 victory Silverton. after losing to the Eugene Athletics Saturday eve 3 to 9, came back to gain a split with an 8 to 0 whitewash Sun day on Squeak Wilson's five-hit pitching.

"preliminary," indicating that an even higher figure may be expected. With clearing weather, the Nazi air fleet stung the allies with renewed fury. London reported two British hospital ships, the Worthing and Paris, were bombed and machine-gunned by German planes oft the French coast. A 17-year-old boy was killed on one of the ships. The Paris was abandoned. Tne Worthing returned to port. Neither ship, it was said, had B. E. F. wounded aboard. A French military spokesman acknowledged that renewed furious attacks on Dunkerque by German land, sea and air forces was making evacuation of the remaining allied soldiers there "increasingly difficult." The Germans reported 59 al lied planes destroyed to 15 nazi planes "missing." No Rest for Enemy "No rest for the enemy" was the watchword in Berlin, where German military circles said Hit ler was preparing another light ning thrust against the allies. In the new German air raids in France over the weekend, 56 persons were killed and 100 in jured. Europe's conflict went into the tenth month today (Monday) with both Germany and Italy, partners In a pact of steel, posing the question: "What next?" Germany's devastating cam paign through the lowlands and into northern France neared an end with a remnant of the allied force there holding on to Dun kerque as the last exit for their rear-guard fighting off heavily increased nazi pressure. New Blow Hinted Nazi military circles hinted that Germany is preparing an other lightning blow for the al lies but where and when are their secrets. Italy's menacing position on the edge of the conflict so far "non-belligerent" rather than neutral has led to a steady in crease in the allied fleet gath ered in the eastern Mediter ;'jpChan&Chan tft ichtn.se Mediitne C t " j j Be relleted al one fE nerbal remeds Do 8 ft'a B,,: t B ras I 1 XI I "as re r.

This reinforcing has been pro ceeding, British advices said, de spite the serious situation In the English channel caused by the German conquest of the lowlands and all but a bit of northern France. Drives against alleged "fifth column" members continued on a wide front. In London, Scot land yard took into custody some 30 persons during the week-end. In Canada there were arrests in Regina and Montreal under de fense of Canada regulations. While the pace of the Ger man blitzkrieg on land slackened off into what the French termed a "reciprocal strategical pause," other raids were mad by Ger man bombing planes on targets as far apart as England's Nor folk county and the French Rhone river valley over the weekend. French Morale High Premier Reynaud returned from an inspection of the Som-me-Aisne line that guards Paris and declared the army's morale never had been higher. Britain, boasting new major triumphs for the air force, at the same time sped her precautions against invasion from across the narrow English channel by transporting 48.000 children from coast towns to Wales and the midlands and set in motion a large-scale agricultural produc tion program. In its "fifth-column" drive, the arrest of Frank Joyce, said to be the brother of "Lord Haw-Haw," Oxford-accented German broadcaster, was reported. That the allied withdrawal from Flanders was almost com pleted was indicated by the ar rival in England of a B. E. F. brigade that had fought the rear guard action which enabled its buddies to escape. War secretary Anthony Eden announced that four-fifths of the B. E. F. 140. 000 men, on the basis of the army's original strength of 173, 000 had been brought home- Crater Lake national park at tracted 10,697 visiters in May, it was announced today by John E.
