Lieut. Norman Lewis of the
61st Infantry Division flung a
beautiful three-hit masterpiece
at Klamath Falls Saturday night
to give the Medford Craters a
3 to 1 victory over the Pelicans
and the 1942 Oregon-California
league championship. Klamath
came back Sunday to edge out
the locals, 8 to 7, but the game
was a mere formality, as that
Saturday night victory irrevo
cably clinched the pennant for
Dutch Lieber's hustling crew.
With the regular loop schedule
completed, the Craters and Pell
cans now face a three-game
series for the President's cup,
the first tilt to bo played here
Wednesday night at 9 o'clock.
The second contest is slated for
Klamath Falls next Saturday
night, and if a third and decid
ing game is needed it will be
staged in Medford Sunday, Aug
ust 30.
Lieber Leaving
Manager Dutch Lieber will
say farewell to Medford follow
ing Wednesday night s game.
Ha is leaving Thursday morning
to report to his draft board in
Oakland, Calif., for induction
Into the army, and in recognition
of his service here during the
past two years the Medford Ath
letic Association has designated
the Wednesday game as "Lieber
Night." The year's largest crowd
Is expected to be on hand to send
Big Dutch on his way into the
service.
Lieut. Lewis, pitching the pennant-clincher
Saturday night,
fired that left-handed curve and
fast ball past a dozen Pelicans
or the third strike. Two of the
three measly blows he allowed
were scratchers, and for seven
innings the Klamaths were un
able to reach home plate.
While the army southpaw was
handcuffing the hard-hitting Pel
icans, the Craters were collecting
even blows off Virgil Haynes,
Klamath fireballer. The locals
bunched -Al W ray's double,
Lieber's single and an error for
a run in the first inning, picked
up another in the fourth on
walks to John Citzen and Lewis,
and Norm Worthley's single, and
completed their scoring in the
ninth on Lewis' walk and Worth
ley's second single.
After being blanked for seven
frames, the Pelicans finally
broke through for their lone
tally in the eighth on a walk and
Hatfield's single.
Madden Hits
Haynes fanned six Craters and
pitched a nice game, but his
teammates couldn't cope with
the Lewis benders.
Dun Madden got three of Med
ford's six hits, Worthley got two
and Lieber and Wray accounted
for one apiece, Larsen collected
two of Klamath's bingles and
Hatfield the other.
Klamath snatched the Sunday
game with a four-run burst in
the eighth Inning, after the Cra
ters had led to that point. Jim
Snyder, Crater southpaw, yield
ed 13 hits in going the route,
while Kenny Bcnham, Pelican
righthander, gave the Craters
nine blows.
Lange and Snyder each hit
twice for the locals, while Man
ager Ernie Bihop made three
of Klamath's hits.

52 Colleges Quit Football
Due To War, Survey Shows
By Harold Claassen
New York, Aug. 17 (P) Fifty-two colleges gave up foot,
ball since last season, an Associated Press survey discloses,
with Gonzaga of Spokane making the announcement with such
finality that Head Coach Fully Hunton Immediately announced
his candidacy for sheriff.
But Coach Hunton wouldn't
hava needed to make the trans
ition that obvious because the
same survey revealed that at
least 81 other colleges hired new
gridiron professors during the
year. . .
The war was the major factor
In the changes and President G.
S. Sanders of Southwestern.
Okla., Tech, explained his
school's dropping of the sport
with:
"We can save $3,000 and the
war is more important Our boys
can chase the pigs, not the pig
skin and kick hell out of the
Japs, not out of a football."
Almost all the coaching
switches were Instigated by the
war except for such isolated
cases of routine changes as Col
orado State where Harry Hughes
resigned after 31 years, the Uni
versity of Washington where
Jimmy Phelan's contract wasn't
renewed, Stanford, Holy Cross
and Illinois.
The navy drew heavily upon
the football coaching fraternity
for its physical toughenlngup
program with Bernle Blerman

Iowa Seahawks, James Crowley

Associated Press Sports Writer
After what happened to their
pitchers in last month's all-star
game, the National league master
minds should be giving them
selves a good mental kicking
every time they read Al Javery's
name in a box score these days.
The Boston Braves' string
bean currently is about the hot
test pitcher in either league, fast
living up to Manager Casey Sten
gel's solemn prediction of the
spring that he would be recog
nized as one of the game's great
hurlers before the season ended.
When he blanked the Dodgers
2 to 0 in seven innings yester
day, setting the league leaders
down with a single hit, Javery
completed his 19th consecutive
inning without having allowed a
run. In his last four games, in
which he has defeated Brooklyn
twice and Cincinnati and New
York once each, the tall young
man from Auburn, Mass., has
given up exactly one run. Five
of his 10 victories this year have
been shutouts, which is tall
pitching for a seventh place out
fit.
The Dodgers' setback, taken
In conjunction with the St. Louis
Cardinals, double victory over
Cincinnati, 10-3 and 6-3, breath
ed a little life into the National
League race.
Cubs Win Two
After absorbing a double lick
ing the previous day, the Chica
go Cubs came back behind some
tight plching by Bill Lee and
Les Fleming to hand Pittsburgh
the same dose, 5-1 and 4-1.
Mel Ott'f Giants tightened
their hold on third place in the
National by trimming the Phils
6-5 and sweeping the four-game
series.
The Boston Red Sox took a
firmer grip on second place in
the American League as they
swept their second doubleheader
with Washington in as many
days, 6-4, and 10-3.
Home runs by Joe DImagglo
and Joe Gordon, each with, a
mate on base, paced the Yankees
to an 11-2 victory over the Ath
letics in a six-inning affair at
Shlbe Park.
Detroit came from behind
twice to win two decisions over
the Chicago White Sox, 3-2 and
Cleveland and the St. Louis
Biowns battled all afternoon to
a stand-off. the Indians winning
the first game 3-2 in 11 Innings
and the scrapping Browns tak
ing the second 6-1.

The sluggers may fatten their
batting averages with 19 hits,
but a game still can be a pitch
er's duel if the moundsmen have
13 innings in which to scatter the
blows.
That was the way it was yes
terday when Seattle's Hal Tur-
pin served up nine hits but won
a 2 to 1 victory over league lead
ing Los Angeles' Ken Raffen
berger. It was Turpln's 18th win
of the current Pacific Coast
League baseball season.
The 7-inning nightcap also was
a pitcher i battle, but the hurler
who gave the most hits won
Los Angeles counting 2 to 0 on
Paul Gehrman's five hitter.
In fact, last place Portland was
the only team to win the series
ending the week with a 3 to 2
advantage over San Francisco.
But the reviving Beavers still
were 32 games out of first place,
a gain of only half a contest over
last week. Portland won Sat
urday's game 6 to 4, but San
Francisco swept the final double
