I ' f V I I M L r clashes will start at 2:30 sharp. There is a possibility a possibility that Monday's game will decide the loops 1941 pennant, for if Sil verton trims Albany tonight ln their battle for the first-half crown, and Medford In turn hurdles Silverton in their Sun day fracas, then the Monday contest will be for the season's championship. Silverton and Albany tied for the first-half flag, Silverton and Medford for the second-half crown. However, if Albany nips Silverton to night, the winner of the Med-ford-Sllverton second-half play off game Sunday will face the Oaks the next week-end for the league gonfalon. Monzo, whose only appear ance here this season resulted in his turning in a five-hit. s e v e n-strikeout performance only to lose In 11 innings to Albany in the season's inaug ural, will fling the Monday game against Silverton, Man ager Lou Sauer announced. On the rubber in the second-half title game Sunday will be Big Dutch Lieber, whose record of seven wins and two defeats in league action was largely re sponsible for the Craters dead locking Silverton for the second-half flag. Going against the Craters will be two of the following three pitchers Southpaws Jack Rich ards and Cal Mclrvin, and Righthander Earl Toolson. Mc lrvin, the sensational high school youngster, blanked the locals 11 to 0 on three hits last Saturday night at Silverton In a first-half makeup game that enabled the Red Sox to tie Albany for the first-half pen nant. Both clubs will be at full strength for the series. The Craters will have Frank Roe landt catching, Al Fleishman on first. Cliff McLean on second. Del Schroer on short. Bob Churchill on third. Al Wray in MU Minager Saufr n center D(ck KonIer ln rlgnt. jack Jobs. The Red Sox. state semi-pro champions, will take the field with Jimmy Robertson catch ing. Ken Manning on first. Johnny Granato on second, Al Kretchmar on short, Lee Shlnn on third. Btll Carney ln left. Dick Whitman In center and Orren or Jack Richards in right. The last time the Red Sox appeared here, July 28 and 27. the Craters copped the league tilt. 7 to 0, on Lleber'a six-hitter, while the visitors won the ex nlbltlnn fray, 7 to 6. behind Jack Richards. The week-end series will probably mark the last baseball to be played here this year, as the Craters are due to disband shortly so that players can re turn to their respective schools.
