PAGE TOUR J MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 80, 1942. Sport Graphs o Billy Hulen Says: Series Between Craters, D orris Has Many Angles This upcoming two-game ser ies between the craters ana flea Talbot's Dorrli, (Cel.) Lumber jacks here Saturday night and Sunday afternoon hai so many Interesting angles that excite ment li almost certain to flare uo all over the place when the two clubs start their Oregon- California league argument. Foremost of the events to traniDire. of course, is "Joe Dickinson Day" Sunday, when Major General Charles H. Ger- hardt, commander of the 91st Infantry Division, presents to the big Crater hurler a gift from the Medford Athletic association, with Joe later to receive a "purse" contributed by fans who aDDreclate what he has done for the Craters since Joining the team a little over a month ago, Then, there Is that situation revolving around Jim Snyder, the Craters' new lefthanded pitcher. Snyder, who had been with Dorris all season, was re leased by the Lumberjacks last Saturday, was immediately sign ed by the Craters and, in his first start for the locals, came up with a four-hit, 11 to 0 blank ing of the Grants Pass Merch ants. Although Snyder undoubt edly doesn't feel too bitter toward the 'Jacks, being as how he was sort of kicked up stairs from a third-place club to one leading the league, he can be expected to bend every effort to aa attempt to show Manager Talbot what a mis-, take that portly gentleman made la cutting him loose. Snyder will probably Plteh the series opener en Saturday night. Then, there Is tha acuta em barrassment suffered by Dorris the last time they took on the Craters. Tha 'Jacks, In that aeries, dropped both games to our boys. That wouldn't have been so bad had It not been for the tact that one Crater pitcher, nd only one, pitched both those games. The nltcher. of course, was Pvt. Joe Dickinson, Me whipped 'em in the first game, going the full nine innings, and he whip ped 'era in the second, flinging eight frames. This doesn't- set well with the lads from Califor nia and when Joe strides to the mound Sunday afternoon on his own "day", the visitors will have blood in their collective yes. They'll ruin "Joe Dickin son Day" for Joe Dickinson If humanly possible. AU in all it should be a whale et series. The Craters, with a full two-game lead over the Klamath falls Pelicans with only six to play, can't afford to drop one or both of their Dorris contests at this stage of the flag chase. For, while Medford and Dorris are meeting, the Pelicans will be entertaining the weak sister, cellarite Grants 1'ass Merchants, and are almost cer tain to nab both clashes. Assuming that Klamath wallops Grants Pass twice. Medford must win two against the 'Jacks in order to main tain its margin of leadership. If the Craters split, their lead will be reduced to one game, and, if they should suffer a double setback at the hands of Dorris while Klamath is cop ping a pair, the race will be all tied up. In closing, may we remind Mr. and Mrs. John Q. Phan that box will be placed at the entrance to the grandstand Sun day to receive cash contributions for Private Joe, or personal gifts for the soldier chap who has won five games and lost one and Is batting .481 for our league-leading Craters.

Saturday 8:30 White Sox Sweep Doubleheader WEST IS HERO OF B-5 FIRST GAME; 1,7-5 New York's Lead Shaved to 12 Games as Tribe Beats Boston Cards Lose. By Judson Bailey (Associated Press Sports Writer) The Chicago White Sox have been going nowhere in the American league ever since the season started, but they have at tained one distinction denied every other club In the circuit They are the only team to sweep a doubleheader from the world champion New York Yankees and they have accomplished the feat not once, but twice. When the Sox first turned the trick In New York on June 28, the Yanks were in a slump and the Sox didn't get much credit. It was like picking on a man while he was down. But they caught the cham pions last night at the crest of a winning streak that included four straight victories and 19 of their last 18 games and pro ceeded to whip the Yankees at the kind of ball for which New York is noted slugging. Chicago Rallies The first game was played at twilight and the Yanks gave At- ley Donald a 8-1 lead with five runs in the third inning, two of hem on Joe DIMaggios 18th homer. Then the Sox slugged back to win 6-8 in 11 innings with old Sam West driving in four of Chicago's runs. He doubled for two to tie the score in the ninth and singled home the deciding tally In the 11th. The second game, played un. der the lights, saw the Sox take an early 5-2 lead, the Yanks tie the score In the sixth, and then Chicago come back with two runs in its hslf of the same frame to win 7-8. This merely dented the Yanks' big first plaoe margin to 13 games, because the Boston Red Sox were nosed out 7-8 in 11 innings at Cleveland when Roy Weatherly singled with the bases loaded. Eight pitchers and five catchers were used during the struggle. - The other American league contests were equally wild. At St Louis the Washington Senators squeezed past the Browns again 11-10 with four runt In the ninth Inning. The Detroit Tigers walloned the Philadelphia Athletics 12-7 in an affair that would have been considerably lopsided ex cept for five Detroit errors. "Bums" Up Lead In the National league the Brooklyn Dodgers enlarged their lead to eight games by beating the St. Louis Cardinals 4-S In a twilight tussle that was halted In the last of the seventh by wartime dimout regulations in the New York area. The two dnublcheadors which completed the senior . circuit card were halved. The Chicago Cubs welcomed Van Lingle Mungo into the majors a bit rudely, beating the New York Giants 4-2 even though held to seven hits in the first game. The Giants took the second game, however, 3-1 with Dick Bartell and Babe Young hitting homers and Bill Lohrman driv ing in a run with a single in ad dition to pitching nine-hit ball. The Pittsburgh Pirates took their first game at Boston 3-0 on five-hit hurling by Truett (Rip) Sewell after being shut out for seven stanzas by Al Javery. Then the Braves re taliated with a 8-8 derision In the nightcap In behalf of big Jim Tobln. Numbers of Manush Correspond To Age Greensboro, N. C.
