Tributes being paid or contem
plated to the late H. 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.

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.

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

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.

scored on Roelandt' single to

Churchill tingled to right (cor

their scoring In the seventh with
two more.
Great Fteldlna
McLean, first up, reached first
on an error and tallied when
Wray lashed his triple to the
right-centerfield fence. Roelandt
singled to center and Wray scor
ed with the seventh and final
run.
The Craters gave Leiber spot
ty but sensational fielding sup
port. Manager Sauer made a
great throw from deep center-
neia in we eightn to catch A.
Radcliff at the plate as be tried
to score from second on Wil
liams' single. 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.
The Craters will play Red
ding, (Cat.) of the Northern Cali
fornia league in an exhibition
game here Saturday night, and
will entertain the Toledo Mud
hens In a regular Oregon State
league tilt Sunday afternoon.
