PAGE FOUR WEDFORD MAR TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, 'AUGUST 14. 1940. Craters REX CECIL ACE 10 E CriDDen Slated for Crater Flinging Job Visitors Lead California Loop Ballyhoocd the most pow erful club ever developed in the ipeedy Northern California lea gue, Mt. Shesta City comes to Medford tonight to engage the State loop Craters in an exhl bitlon tussle under the mnzdas at the fairgrounds orchard. The fracas is slated to start at 8:30 sharp. Rex Cecil, former Western International league pitcher and the N.C.L.'f top elbower. is due to do hill duties for the invad era. Opposing him will probab ly be Steve Crippen, who has yet to taste the bitter dregs of defeat. It looks like whale of mound duel. Mt. Shasta will take the field boasting a record of 13 victories and one defeat, which was good enough to put the club at the top of the Northern California league heap at the close of the regular schedule last Sunday. Four outfits start Shaughnessy playoffs next Sunday, and Mt. Shasta is the overwhelming fav orite to win the works, Hawkins Afraid. Manager Hawkins of the lo cals makes no secret of the fact that he fears the Californians. The Craters earlier in the sea son received a taste of the North ern California league's brand of baseball, when Dunsmulr came here and went home with a 2 ' to 0 conquest, thanks to Carl Menu's great flinging. In N.C.L. action, Cecil and his Mt. Shasta City teammates trimmed Dunsmuir twice in two atarts, all of which certainly doesn't lessen Hawkins' fears concerning what his Medford club will be up against this venlng. The Craters, after a disastrous tallspin in the closing weeks of It's "33 to 1" this U my prize catch I i. IT itfiuTl 'ilCI Tii i T"-BStitr-iii BLENDED 33 TIMES TO MAKE ONE GREAT BEER!

They are hustling, their hitting la ap parently getting better and the infield switch that put Cook on third and McLean on second has. thus far. worked like charm. Lineup Intact. The Crater leader is unde cided whether he or Billy Cal vert will open behind the plate tonight, but the remainder of the lineup will be the same Patterson on first; McLean on second, Pacheeo on short, Cook on third, Peccla in left, Sauer in center and Wray in right. Bill Lannlng will be a reserve pitcher and Tommy White will be available for out field or first base action, Peccla and Sauer, Incidental ly, have certainly added power to the Crater attack. The for mer hit five for seven last week end and Sauer, in that upset of the Monarrhs, belted two sin gles in the clutch. Their ap pearance in the outfield doesn't weaken the club's defensive strength a bit, either. ALBANY FOREGOES TRIP TO WICHITA Albany, Ore., Aug. 14.
