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.

TO BEAT ROGUES

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

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.

Medford. allowing 10 blows,
while Ray Koll gave up 11
safeties for Crescent City. For

hits apiece for Medford. Hyn

AMERICAN ALL-STftRS
5-2 FAV
Al LI
By Harold Claassest
St. Louis. July 8. (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.
Coos Strike Called Off
Marshfield, Ore., July 8 W)
Culinary alliance pickets dis
