Newspaper Page TextMEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY, JUNE 13. 1941. Klamath Pelicans Invade Medf ord for Two Games Saturday, Sunday- PAGE EIGHT KIDS READY FOR FIRSIJCID TEST Smith Or Brown to Hurl Saturday Night Tilt, Fox Sunday; Klamath Strong Medlord't sensational Crater kids, their lusty wir clubs still reverberating from that Incred- lble 27 to 6 slaughter of the Dorris Lumberjacks, roar Into action again this week-end in a two-game series with the Klam ath Pelicans that will determine whether they are destined to strike the Oregon State league pennant trail, or whether that Dorris holocaust was in the na ture of a fluke. The Pelicans, flying high in second place In the State loop with three victories and one de feat, will invade this town for an exhibition fracas Saturday night and a regular league tus sle Sunday afternoon. The Sat urday eve affair will start at o'clock sharp under the fair grounds field candles, while the Sunday afternoon tilt will get under way at 3 o'clock. A huge delegation of Klamath fanatics will accompany their club to Medford, according to Business Manager Al Dollarhlde of the Pelicans, who was here Wed nesday night scouting the Craters. Craters Scouted Dollarhlde, watching the Craters annihilate Dorris, really got an eyeful, and Manager Lou Sauer of the locals, has high hopes that his club can give Klamath Falls some of the same medicine. He plans to start either 17-year-old Willard Smith or 17-year-old Jack Brown of Portland's Franklin high on the mound In Saturday night's game, with big, smooth-working Bob Fox coming back in the Sunday league affair. Although Smith worked over five innings Wednesday night, Sauer inti mated that he might get the hurling call Saturday. If not. it will be Brown, who set Dor ris down In one-two-three order In the ninth. Orln Davis, righthander who was with Salem of the Western International league last Tear and Spokane of the tame circuit this season, will probably fling the Saturday night game for the Pelicans. Slated for action against Fox in the Sunday tus sle Is Bill Hanauska, Willamette university ace who pitched the Pelicans to a 9 to 8 victory over Eugene In a State league game last Sunday. Hanauska, a big, 18 year-old youngster, is right handed and possesses a -vlilMlng fast ball and a great curve. Btar-Studded Lineup Managed by Second-Baseman Ernie Bishop, a veteran of W. L L. and Pioneer league serv ice, the Pelicans will move into town with a club many observ ers believe Is as strong as the Loop-Leading Albany Oaks Warren Wanner will be behind the plate, with the heavy-hitting Paul Crapo on first. Jack Lloyd on short, Arland (Babe) Schwab on third, Reed in left, Norm Peters In center and Clyde Carlstrom In right Schwab spent most of last season with the Portland Beav ers and is currently hitting over .800. Peters is a three-year vet eran from Oregon State. Crapo ia at present the team's leading batter with a mark well over .400, and Manager Bishop is also clouting over the .400 figure. Manager Sauer, with plenty of players available for the first time this season, was uncertain as to the exact lineup that will take the field against the pow erful Pelicans. At first base will be either Spike Johnson, the gangly kid from Portland who belted four singles Wednesday night, or Al Fleishman. At third will be one of two other Port land youngsters Bob Churchill or Harold Martenson. The for mer played third against Dorris. while Martenson was stationed in left field. Calvert To Catch Billy Calvert will do the re ceiving, with Bobby Volk on second, Del Schroer on short,! Al Lightner In left, Sauer in center and Joe Cray in right Lightner leaped out of nasty batting (lump Wednesday with a homer and a triple, and Gray also has started to hit, along with Manager Sauer. The Crat ers should pack plenty of wal lop when they face off against the Pelicans. The week-end series, which is expected to pull capacity crowds, will mark the first time the Craters and Pelicans have collided this season. A victory for the locals will move them to within a half-game of the Pelicans. BEAVERS BLOW LONG LEAD AND LOSE 12-11 SLUGFEST TO ANGELS (By Associated Press) Smooth working Sacramento, strongly Implanted In the Coast league lead, is still vulnerable In the opinion of Seattle's skip per. Bill Skiff. Manager Skiff says he be lieves that the Senators, who walloped Hollywood again last night, 8 to 1, are a mighty fine ball club but they haven't all the power that their standing would indicate. San Francisco made It three straight In the series with Seat tle, starting out slugging In the first inning and refusing to let up until they won, 16 to 1. San Diego made it seven straight league wins by blanking Oakland. 4 to 0. Los Angeles won a 10-lnnlng game from Portland, 12 to 11. Portland had a 9 to 0 lead In the fourth but the Angels tied it In the last half of the ninth. The winning run resulted from a wild throw to second base after the fifth Portland pitcher, Walter Hllcher, Juggled Low ery's bunt Lee Stlne scored from second on this play. Score: R. H. E. Portland 11 13 2 Los Angeles ..12 22 2 Liska, Reld. Orcll, Speece, Hllcher and Schultz; Bonetti, Totaro, Stine and Collins, Holm, Samhammer. BRAVES. 1-0 ON GREAT PITCHING By Judsoa Bailey Associated Press Writer. Paul Derringer, the Cincin nati ace, showed how tough he can be yesterday by pitching four-hit ball to beat the Boston Braves, 1-0. The Reds made only five singles themselves off young Art Johnson, a southpaw, but they managed to link two of them with a walk for run In the first Inning. The day's only other National league game also was an air tight pitching spectacle be tween Carl Hubbell and BUI Lee, with the New York Giants stopping the Chicago Cubs, 2-0. In the American league the Boston Red Sox divided a doubleheader with the St. Louis Browns In odd affairs. The Browns tallied five times in their half of the first inning and won the first game, 9-4. The Red Sox were held to six hits in the secpnd game but triumphed, 3-2. The Philadelphia Athletics copped a nlp-and-tuck struggle from the Detroit Tigers, 5-3. The New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox had a high old time of it in their night game. The Yankees finally won in the 10th, 3-2, on DiMaggio's four-bagger.
