PAGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 1940. Sport Graphs Billy Hulen Says; Trout Plentiful In Crater Lk Reporti Wharton Rego Hurls Craters to 5 -1 SOUTHPAW FLINGS WIT BASEBALL: TEAM BATS WELL Tourney Win Over Tillamook Betters Pole Vault Mark Fishing along the middle stretches of Rogue river my be comparatively flow at pres ent, per Joe Wharton's weekly bulletin from Grants Pass, but not so at Crater Lake, where the trait to the water's edge was opened the first of the month. Wharton reports that a con siderable number of good catches are being made daily by trolling with tandem spinner and bait "As Crater Lake la a national park, an Oregon ang ling license is not required to fish in Crater and many out-of-state visitors are taking advan tage of the privilege," Wharton writes. "On the Fourth of July 244 Rainbows and Silvers were taken on tandem spinners with angle worms." Commenting on trout fishing in the Rogue, Wharton says, "The water Is extremely low and clear and we would advise using small files and very small leaders. One disadvantage in us ing very small flies is hooking so many fingerling steelhead and salmon which must be care fully released without injury If they are to survive and grow up. This can be easily accom plished when caught on flies, as they are usually lightly hooked on the edge of the mouth and can be easily shaken off with out handling." Medford Plays Gaston Next Friday Eve Mantle Club and B and 0 Victorious Portland, July 10. ?) Medford's efficient baseball crew, a semi-pro tournament fa' vorlte, tripped the Tillamook Cheesemakers last night, 9 to 1. In two other tournament con- testa at the Vaughn street Pacific Coast league park. Mantle Club of Portland stopped Mount An gel, 8 to 4, and B & O of Port land swamped Molalla, 10 to 2. The loss put Mount Angel out of the running. Medford backed Jimmy Rego's four-hit pitching with smart work in the field and at bat. An errc. . a wild pitch and a single gave the southern Oregon team a starter run In the second in ning. Single runs in the third, sixth and seventh innings de cided the Issue. The though! strikes us thai Germany ia tough like Jack Oempsey was tough. Dempsey came up the hard wsri he had ! fight tooth and nail and desperately for his very exis tence. He was hungry, and that hunger turned him into wild-man in the ring. Fight ers he met, accustomed to easier wars of living and per haps softened by years of plenty, like Jess Wlllard. had a chance against the Manas sa Mauler. So it is with Germany. It has come up the hard way in the past 20 years. Its soldiers of to day, in their youth, had no easy time of it. They, too, were hun gry, and when the guy named Hitler told them a world feast waited, we see the result. And like Jess Willard, France was softened by years of content ment, and didn't stand a show against the Nazis. But here is where Germany and Dempsey differ: while the great pugilist could, and did, reach the end of his fighting trail and become a civilized, ut terly respectable human, we doubt whether Germany, under Hitler, ever can be the same sort of nation. A welcome newcomer to Med ford, due here this week, is Don McFadden, former Southern Oregon Normal and University of Oregon star baseball player, and until this week manager of the Eugene Athletics of the Ore gon State league. Don has been transferred by his company, a trucking concern, from Eugene to Medford. Dave Sanderson, writing In the Eugene Nsws. had this to say about McFadden the other day. "Eugene will feel a lots here through its baseball team as Don has put the Ath letics in the thick of the pen nant scrap for the second half. The Athletics of 1940 are one I the finest teams to be fielded by Eugene in years and years, and every week mere and more fans are begin ning to see this tact. It has been largely through the ef forts of Don and Mrs. McFad den that has put the Athletics ever with the fans and kept them going." Don's pitching helped the University of Oregon win the northern division. Pacific Coast conference championship sever al years ago, and he has played on several state championship semi-pro teams. While he hasn't done much hurling this season, confining his efforts to an oc casional exhibition-game appear ance, he still can wheel them In there, and will probably sign with the Craters. We take a good, old-fashioned bow and smirk for that National league win over the American loop all-stars yesterday, 4 to 0 The game bore out our conten tion that those members of the New York Yankees, who played with the American leaguers, had no business in there, and that apparently the only reason they were was on past reputations. Gordon, Dickey, Keller and DiMaggio, once great hitters, went blowlrss against the Ns tionals, and Red Ruffing, anoth er erstwhile Yankee star, was rapped by Max West for a three run homer that gave the senior loo pen the victory. Ce. Mail Tribune went ana. Jimmy Rego was a surprise pitching choice for the Craters, as he hurled nine innings against Sllverton here Sunday and Man ager Tom Hawkins, before the team left for Portland, expressed his doubt that the lefthander would feel like working an other game with only one day rest. Apparently Rego requested that he start the game, for Haw kins planned to send Steve Crip pen to the mound. The victory over Tillamook moved the Craters into a posi tion for their second game Fri day night at 8:45 against Gaston Dairy of Portland. The Dairy men, in two tournament starts, have beaten Sauvies Island, 8 to 4, and Canby, 12 to 8.

The milhtv Rainlrra nf K-tii went down for a shutout 1 to 0 loss to San Francisco last night. The basement barons of Port land turned up In the win list, beating Hollywood, 9 to 4. A Sl-hlt melee at Ssn Dlcgo gave Los Anseles t In ) u-in over the Padres. And on Sacramento the i fell twice. Two players inchidine Art Garibaldi, til team'a popular In 1939 were sent from the league in a shaken p. and Oakland won a heart-breaking 2 to 1 night game. The strange Portland Holly wood affair ended an einht-vame losing string for the Beavers and ran the Stars' losses up to six in a row. The Stars blew a x n in the fifth, when Portland put on a splurge of six runa ell unearned, because Hollywood had set the stage for them with fumbles. The Stars erred five times in the game. Cornelius Warmerdam, San Francisco Olympic club star, already holder of the unofficial world's pole vault record, is shown here bettering It with a Jump of IS feet l's Inches at the 32nd annual AAU track and field championships at Fresno, Calif. The meet was held at night. Earlier this season Warmerdam. Tuolumne. Calif., school teacher, soared to IS feet to better the listed record of 14 feet. 11 inches. Recognition of that Jump is awaiting official approval. Max West Hero of All-Star Game on McKechnie's Hunch By Harold Claassen St. Louis, July 10. (JP) At noon it was a hunch noth ing more that caused Manager Bill McKechnie to insert Max West of Boston in the starting lineup of the National circuit in the annual major league all-star baseball game. Thirteen minutes after the contest was under way, it was a brilliant piece of strategy as West deposited a three-run hom er in the right field bleachers and started his mates toward a 4 to 0 triumph over the Ameri can league. McKechnie's belief that Mel Ott of the New York Giants, listed to start in right field until shortly before the game time yesterday, would be of more val ue in the late Innings when that garden would be the sun field prompted the deacon to make change. "It was my hunch that Olf who is older and more experi enced, would be a bit steadier in the sun and that is the only reason for the change," McKech nie said. Luke Appling of the Chicago White Sox, collected a double and a single and Buck Newsom. the bellicose Detroit flinger, cracked a one-baser. Never did the losers have more than one runner on the paths and Appling was the only one to get beyond second. It was the White Sox short stop's double off Derringer in tne second that brought about w est s removal. The Boston 1 L OOK ciouter tried to make a leaping ' Kp'!0 catch and slummed into the con-!

CRIP BATS .467 TO TOP CRATERS Steve Crlppen, successfully pinch-hitting Sunday against Silvcrton, boosted his batting average to .467 to widen the mnrgin between him and Al Wray, in second place among Medford Crater batsmen with an average of .418. Crippen's one single in one trip meant 19 percentage points over his previous mark. Wray passed Leonard (Pat) Patterson for the leadership in runs scored by tallying twice in the Silverton series, while Pat terson failed to dent the plate. Wray has scored IS times; Pat terson 14.

Shay said the fire destroyed $100,000 worth of equipment for power lines linking Parker dam to the Boulder dam power house up-river and for tunnel drilling crews piping water Into Arizona. In the ruins of the ware house, said Shay, searchers found parts of what may have been a timing, device for an Infernal machine.
