The Medford Crateri and Pitcher Jimmy Rego suffered one bad inning the fifth, when Silverton tallied five runs and that was enough to give the vis iting Red Sox a 7 to 6 victory Sunday and a clean sweep in the two game State league series played at the fairgrounds park. It was the first series the Cra ters have dropped this season. Although the locals tried val iantly in late innings to over come the long lead piled up by the state champions, they lacked the punch in the face of Del (Squeak) Wilson's southpaw zip pers and dipsy-doo's, and dropped Into a second place tie with Eugene in the red hot State loop pennant race. Rego, who went the distance for Medford, gave up nine blows, two less than the Cra ters were able to reach Wilson for, but he failed to get the fielding support the Red Sox gave their ace left-hander, and he didn't scatter his safeties so effectively. Two For Medford Only once were the Craters ahead in the fourth, when Cook's single to center, Wray's double to right-center and Mc Lean's single to left, drove home two runs after Silverton scored once in the second on errors by McDonald and Cook, and Moe's long fly to Peterson in center field. ' It was 2 to 1, Craters, when the Red Sox unleashed their five-run burst In the fifth to Ice the contest. In this frame Wilson ingled to right, Klrsch singled to center and Cody singled In lield, loading the bases. Orren ingled to right scoring Wilson and Kirsch, and Cody tallied when the ball got through Wray. Manning's single to right scored Orren, and after Bonney sacri ficed. Manning tallied when Calvert dropped Whitman's fly to short left-center after a hard run. Ahead, 6 to 2, the Red Sox increased it to 7 to 2 In the sixth on Wattler'a walk, Wilson's sac rifice and Kirsch's single to left. By this time it looked like there wasn't anything to it, but the Craters still had something left. Rego Homers In the Medford seventh Man ager Hawkins opened with a single to left, and Rego singled clear to the right-centerfield fence. Calvert walked, loading the bases, and It looked prom ising. McDonald lined the first pitch to center, scoring Hawk Ins, but Rego was out at the plate attempting to score on the hit, whitman making a nice throw home. Cody booted Cook's grounder, Calvert scoring, but Wray forced McDonald at the plate. After Peterson walked, McLean struck out to end the inning. Behind, 4 to 7. going into the eighth, the Craters staged their final serious rally. Hawkins drew a base on balls and Rego whaled a sky-scraping homer over the right field wall. Thai made it 6 to 7, and although Crippen, batting for Peterson in the ninth, got a single into left the game ended when Whitman hauled down McLean's lorn, drive to center. Kirsch, Cody, Owen and Man nlng all collected two hits io. the winners, while Rego hit i. homer and single for Medion and Hawkins and McDonald h. pair of singles apiece. It was one of those guinea tli most of the so-called "breaks seemed to go to the opposition Silverton batters connected with several "bloopers," Just out of the reach of Crater fielders, and more than one hard hit ball by Medford batter was directly in the hands of a Sox fielder. To Play Tillamook The Craters leave here early tomorrow morning for Portland to play their first slate tourna ment game against Tillamook at 8:30 p.m. Tuesday. They will re main in Portland the rest of the week to play their second game Friday night, and will meet Hills Creek at Hills Creek en route home, Saturday night and Sunday afternoon In pair of State league tussles. The Medford Lions club raised enough money to take care of the Craters on their first trip to Portland, and many of the players have homes or rela tives in the metropolis which they plan to utilize to cut down expenses.

ClTYRALLTES TO BEAT ROGUES For seven innings the luckless Medford Rogues had Crescent City's Southern Oregon league leading Merchants played to a scoreless standstill at Crescent City yesterday, and when the locals pounded across three runs In the eighth inning to take a 3 to 0 bulge it looked like Doc Cltzen'a club was to score the season's big upset. But In Crescent City's half of the eighth the root fell In, and when the inning was ended the Merchants were on the long end of an 8 to 3 tally. Five hits and three errors did the Job for the Crescents In the big frame, and although the Rogues came back with two runs In the ninth they weren t enough to prevent an 8 to 8 Crescent City victory. Keevan hurled the route for Medford. allowing 10 blows, while Ray Koll gave up 11 safeties for Crescent City. For terfield and Newland got two hits apiece for Medford.

(JP) They are playing the eighth rendition of the major league all-star base ball game in Sportsman's park tomorrow, but it's the first time the heroes will tangle on a dia mond equally familiar to both sides. Back in 1933 the game was started in the Chicago White Sox park as the answer to the fans' prayer and sports writer's dream. Since then the leagues have alternated as hosts. Now it is the turn of the St. Louis Cardi nals of the national circuit to spread the festive board before an expected 33,000 customers. And in recent years the Car dinals have shared Sportsman's park with their fellow-townsmen, the Browns of the Amer ican league. With the terrain so familiar, bettors today argued that the American league contingent waa a 5 to 2 favorite on its pitching and batting prowess. Bob Feller is expected to go to the mound first for the Amer icans with Bucky Walters as his opponent.
