Billy Hulen Says:
Reds Will Open
Baseball Camp
Here Wednesday
Time was when a youngster
aspiring to break into organized
baseball, with a major league
career nil eventual goal, had to
put the "touch" on papa for the
necessary (are to reach a spring
training camp, and in general
go through "hell ar.d high
water" to get a chance to dis
play hii ability before the
proper eyes.
All that has changed now.
Fierce competition among the
big league clubs to sign promis
ing young players has resulted
In the professional teams bring'
ing tryout camps to tne pas
timers and THE leader in this
method of discovering potential
major loopers is Cincinnati, Na
tional league champion In 1939
and 1940.
Starting next Wednesday
morning at the high school park
the Reds will conduct their an
nual tryout camp for young
players in this area. It will last
through Sunday, five days, and
will be one of 26 similar camps
to be held west of the Missis
sippi river this spring and sum
mer. tn charge of the camp will
be George (Mickey) Shader,
Pacific coast scout for the
Xedlegs, who Is expected to
arrive in town tomorrow to
' get things In shape for the
sessions. E. H. Hedrlck, city
school superintendent, has
turned over to Shader all
facilities at the fine high
school athletic plant as he has
graciously done at all previ
ous camps.
The camp will be absolutely
free, and those enrolling must
provide only their own gloves
and shoes, and transportation
and living expenses if they re
side outside Medford. The Reds
will furnish all other equipment
necessary in the staging cf daily
nine-inning games among the
enrollees.
Aspirants showing sufficient
promise will be tendered con
tracts with one of Cincinnati's
minor league clubs. This Is the
way the Reds acquired such present-day
stars as Harry Craft.
Frank McCormick, Whitey
Moore, Junior Thompson and
Ray Lammano, the current Cin
cinnati rookie catcher whose
hitting Is setting the National
league afire.
Shader cordially Invites all
players between 17 and 21 to
enroll in the camp. Enrollment
blanks may be obtained from
the writer of this column, or
from Shader at 10 a. m. next
Wednesday at the high school
park, when the camp will of
ficially open. ,
Prospect of witnessing a run-of-the-mill
wrestling match
leaves us, Inevitably, entirely
unmoved. But not this Savoldl

next Monday evening
Of all the mat 'contests
Mack Llllard has brought to
Medford in the past several
years, this looks like the best
of them ell, the "natural" of
"naturals."
Savoldl, with his terrific drop
kicks, all around class and

RED SOX BEATEN
BY NATS; GORDON
By Judsen Bailey
Associated Press Sports Writer
The Boston Red Sox come
close to being the worst road
team In the major leagues and
this malady, which has kept
them from resembling pennant
contenders In the past, now has
p'aced even their first division
berth in Jeopardy.
The Cronln Clouters were
stopped 81 by the Washington
Senators at the capital last night
and now have lost 12 of their
last 17 encounters, all but three
away from home.
Joe Gordon extended his cur
rent hitting streak to 13 games
yesterday and won a 3-2 deci
sion for the world champions
over the Philadelphia Athletics
by rapping a single with the
bases loaded and the score tied
in the ninth.
Virgil (Fire) Trucks, strike
out king of International League
last year, pitched his first com
plete game for Detroit Tigers
and held the Cleveland Indians
to four hits for a 6-2 victory.
The St. Louis Browns rallied
for four runs In the eighth In
ning to beat the Chicago White
Sox 6-4 and gain their sixth vic
tory In seven games.
The Brooklyn Dodgers set
down the Boston Braves again
6-4. with Klrby Higbe pitching
seven-hit ball..
The St. Louis Cardinals took
advantage of this outcome to
strengthen their hold on second
place in the National League
with a 3-2 eleven-Inning triumph
over the faltering Pittsburgh Pi
rates, who now have lost 11 of
13 games.
Big Bill Lee. making a fine
comeback this season, achieved
his seventh victory by holding
the Cincinnati Reds to six hits
while the Chicago Cubs foreed
to a 2-1 triumph In 12 Innings.
Lee himself knocked In the win
ning run with a long fly.

New York, May 29. (VP)
Bay Robinson still sports the
longest winning streak in recent
fistic history today, but only be
cause a referee saw one low
punch where most rlngsiders
saw two--and booed.
There was no doubt about the
booing by the 13,673 customers
who sat in Madison Square Gar
den last night, both when the
low punches were struck in the
second round, and again after
the fight, when Robinson was
announced the winner of a 10
round decision over baby-faced
Marty Servo from Uncle Sam's
coast guard. '
The decision was the third In
a row in the Garden to which
the fans didn't take klndlv. Two
weeks ago, Allie Stolz tangled
with Sammy Ang;tt for Sam
my's lightweight crown, and
Sammy took the deck-Ion to a
chorus of boos. Last week,
Tami Mauricllo got a draw with
Bob Pajtor, although most folks
thought Rapid Robert finished
on top.

will be ended for the duration
within six weeks, the profes
sionals are getting ready to
pitch in and carry on an organ
ized country-wide campaign to
raise funds for the Army and
Navy Relief societies and the
Red Cross.

nual P.G.A. championship at
the Seaview club here, they got
together last night and agreed
to shoot the works. President
Ed Dudley announced that the
association would contribute the
services of Us tournament man
ager, Fred Corcoran, to line up
benefit matches and the players
agreed to devote a good part of
their time to the program.
Of the eight stars competing
in quarter-final matches today,
six agreed to place themselves
at Corcoran's disposal. The
other two, Corporal Jim Turnesa
and Sammy Snead, already have
signed with Uncle Sam's armed
forces.

WEEK-END SERIES
The scheduled two-game ser
ies between the Craters and

to have been played here Satur
day and Sunday afternoons, has
been called off.
Crater officials today checked
with you know who, and that
gentleman advised that condi

look at all promising. So, in
order to eliminate the possibil
ity of being forced to pay the
San Francisco club its big guar
antee for coming here and then
not being able to play, the Crat
ers told Bear Photos the tilts
were cancelled.
This week-end was left open
In the Oregon-California sche

action. However, Grants Pass
will travel to Dorrls, Calif., for
a double-header Sunday, to
make up an opening week post
