Chandler Egan of Medford, national ama teur champion of 1903 and 1904 nd one ot the moit beloved golfing figurei of all time, seem to be coming thick and fast of late. The other day it was revealed Egan would probably be elected to golf's Hall of Fame to take his place alongside Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Gene barazen Francis Ouimet and other im mortals of the ancient ana non orable pastime. Today, coming to our desk from Spokane, Wash., was beautiful booklet describing and publicizing the annual national nubile links chamDionship to be held at the Indian Canyon Golf course in that city July 14 to 19. Egan, who designed our own beautiful Rogue Valley course, also laid out the Indian Canyon course, and It was to him that the coming tournament was ded icated. On the first page of the booklet is a very tin picture of Egan. and underneath It are these wordst "In memory of Chandler Egan the Mighty Oregonlan Ha ranks with Ouimet and Jones In the sport he followed and he will al ways be there, affectionately, In the finest memories of the American golfer. National champion In '03 and '04 sev eral times northwest amateut champion golf architect To Spokane he left the Indian Canyon course, to test the drivers of new generations of American golf." A fine tribute to a fin man and a fine golfer. The Oregon State Game com mission has made another ap peal to anglers to utilize catch report cards and send in data on very fishing trip they make. Charles A. Lockwood, assis tant supervisor in charge of lake and stream survey and fish liber ation, reports that 1941 returns of report cards is far in excess of last year, but even so many fishermen are not using the cards. . .. Lockwood explains that ma terial sent in on the cards by fishermen Is of inestimable val ' ue In connection with the sur vey reports of four crews now' In the field. The cards may be obtained in any sporting goods storo or from the game commis sion's office in Portland, re quire no signature and no postage. At Wray Hits Triple and Two Singles to Lead Attack Roelandt Bats in Three Enthusiastically, we recom mend that all Softball fans and uit anybody who can still laugh do NOT fall to take In Friday night's show at the senior high school stadium. It you are pretty well overcome by all this horrible war news and talk of fresh taxes, it'll do your soul good to sit back and roar at the screamlined antics of the Colored Ghosts of Sioux City, lows, who will tangle at 9 o'clock with a local all-star team. Those who watched the Ghosts cavort last season know what we mean when we say they are positively the funniest, loon iest, and at the same time the BEST Softball players ever to step foot on the local diamond. That shadow-ball exhibition they put on is terrific. Although there'll be a slight raise in ad mission prices, the show will be worth it, make no mistake.

Rooms 5 5 5 ATMS e S-nelble Rata from sato With Big Dutch Leiber fling ing a fine seven-hitter to notch his fourth triumph in five starts for the locals, the Medford Cra ten submerged the colored Palmer House Stars of Chicago, 7 to 1, at the fairgrounds park last night before one of the year's largest crowds. It was the ninth exhibition-came victory in 11 tries for the Craters. "Big Dutch" received able support from his teammates, who bunched 10 hits off Bill Mitchell, Palmer House right hander. In almost perfect fash ion. The Craters wasted only one of their 10 blows, McLean's single in the eighth; all the oth ers either setting up a run or belting one home. Leiber, who whiffed six and walked none, missed a shutout In the eighth inning when A. Radcliff doubled to uenter after Longest reached first on a bad throw by Shortstop Del Schroer, his third error of the game. At all other times the barnstormers were helpless in the face of Dutch's whooping curve ball and blistering hard one. It was prob ably the best game the big right hander had pitched thus far. Long Triple Al (Wray) Lightner and Frankle Roelandt, two of the supposedly weaker Crater club bers, led the Medford attack. Wray, plagued by a terrible slump all season, switched to the left side of the plate and whaled out two singles and a 385-foot triple in three trips for a perfect evening, besides scoring three runs. Roelandt whammed out two singles and laid down a per fect squeeze bunt to drive in three runs. The Craters had three two-run Innings, the third, sixth and seventh, and tallied once in the fourth to send the Negroes away from here in an unhappy frame or mind. Del Schroer' walk.

Churchill came up with a beautiful stop on a hard smash to his left, and McLean, playing his first game In two months, pulled two fine field ing plays.
