Most of the mentors aeknow- jThey gave Big Dutch Lieber I -fine, appropriately engraved leather billfold containing 10 bill as "a golng-away pres- cat at the fairground ball park Jail night. And Big Dutch, In re turn, presented Medford with a sweet-pitched,- 7 to 8 victory over .the Klamath falls Pelicans in the first game of a three-game series for. the President's cup of the Oregon-California league. Lieber, who left here early this morning for Oakland. Calif., to report for army induction, held the hard-hitting Pelicans to three, Jjlts and no runs for six Innings, weakened slightly In the last three frames and gave j-4tv blows for a trio of tallies, but all in all elbowed one swell ball game as his farewell ges ture to Medford for the duration of the war. Thus, to Dutch and all local fans and flayers, "Lieber Night" was eminently successful. ; ' v In a ' short ceremony in the seventh mn(ng. Cliff Proctor, president of the Medford Ath letic association, presented to Lieber the handsome billfold, a gift o( the association. And Lieber, 'accepting ' the. wallet, said he hoped-to return to Med ford after the war Engraved on the billfold was: -Dutch Lieber. Manager, Medford Craters, Champion O r e g o n-Callornla league. 1942, Medford Athletic Association.'' Smart Pitching Big Dutch didn't have that blazing stuff of last year, and appeared still bothered by the arm trouble that has plagued him most all this season. But ha used his head and had enough en the sphere to dominate the Pelicans almost completely. He fanned four and issued only one walk. Kenny Benham. the w-Whlt man college star, tolled for the Pelicans and was belted for 10 bits, including a triple and dou ble by Al Fleishman and doubles by New-Manager Norm Worth- ley and Al Wray. The skinny fellow was a little wild, walking three and cutting loose with the same number of wild pitches, all of which didn't help the Pelican cause. The Craters, O-C league pen riant winners, built up a 4 to 0 lead before the Klamaths broke through for a run In the seventh. In the second Waite got Ufa when Bill .'tlanas dropped a third strike. Don Madden walk d and Johnny Gitren bunted. Waite scoring clear from second base. Fleishman then tripled to right-center scoring Madden, and Fleishman tallied when Gray dropped Jack Swaryck's fly to right. To those three runs was added another In the third, on a walk to Waite. a fielders' choice and singles by OlUen and Harold Lange. The Craters couldn't do any thing with Benham from then tintil the 7th, when Wray s dou ble to right and Madden's single to left created another tally. Just to make certain of the victory, rielshman doubled. Worthley walked and both scored on Wray's'blow to right In the eighth. (. Waite Stars Blanked for six heats, the Pel Jeans got their first run In the seventh on a double bv Virgil Gross and Gray s single, and their final pair in the eighth on Crapo's walk.

It will be played here Sunday, August ledge that the polish and finesse of former years may be lacking In a slight way but all agree, In a survey made by the Associated Press, that the spectacular will become much more common and that upsets will be lurking be hind every goal post. Rex Enright of South Caro lina university says he expects a slight drop in the caliber of play but "that It will not be ap parent to the general public be cause of the evenness. There will be more variance In the quality of play from week to week because of poor reserves and the use of freshmen and this will mean more upsets." Another coach compared the drop In quality with a track meet, declaring that the aver age fan "can't tall the differ ence between a 4:08 and 4:12 one-mile run without a stop watch." Many conferences, led by the Big Three of Yale, Harvard and Princeton, will use freshmen forecasting fumbles and sur prise touchdowns. Only the larger circuits Big Ten, Pacific Coast, Big Six, Southwest, Southern and South eastern have remained firm in their stand not to use new comers. The Southeastern loop, however, has a meeting in At lanta next month at which the question will be studied again So universal has their use be come, however, that Amherst and Tufts are the only schools in New England not playing the neophytes. The Mountain Six. formerly the Big seven, Rocky Mountain and Missouri Valley loops have endorsed the youngsters. Sloppy Bturinninj Costs Btavtrs 6-4 Difotl by Ralniirs TOPS COAST LOOP Los Angeles.

The Rainiers came from be hind to knot the score in the ninth and won in the extra frame as First Baseman Earl Torgeson singled, stole second and scored on Ned Stickles single.

Clouna time tor Classified A1s TO. TOO 1st to CUaslly 11 JO p. m. By Austin Bealmear Associated Press Sports Writer. If the baseball fans of Ohio have any knack for solving puz zles, they might use that talent to good advantage right now by iinaing a reason for the sudden collapse of their two entries in the major leagues. Not so many dayt ago the Cleveland Indians were runners up in the American league, the Cincinnati Reds were skipping along in third place in the Na tional loop, and citizens of the Buckeye state were speculating on the possibility of an all-Ohio world seriet for the first time in history. But today the Indians and the Reds look as if they'll be ex tremely fortunata to finish in the first divisions. Each team has lost nine of its last 11 games. The Reds have dropped into fourth place, only three games away from the second division. The Indians are hanging on to third in the Amer ican league by four percentage points but will find themselves sharing that position if the St Louis Brownies win today. Pirates Win The Pittsburgh Pirates, gun ning for Cincinnati's first divi sion place, handed the Reds their sixth setback in a row yesterday and beat Paul Der ringer in the bargain, 9-2. The drubbing left the Reds oVi games behind the third-place New York Giants, who were idle. The Detroit Tigers pasted the third straight loss on the In dians. 6 1, In a twilight game. Elsewhere In the American league, the Philadelphia Ath letics shut out the Washington Senators. 8-0, In a night game and the Boston Red Sox divided a double-header with the New York Yankees, continuing a stretch duel that would be more Unteresting if the Yanks were not 11 Vt games ahead. A pair of homers by Jim Ta bor and another by Ted Wil liams accounted for all of Bos ton's runs and a 6-4 triumph in first game as Tex Hughson limit ed the Yankees to seven hits for his 16th pitching victory and his tenth In a row. Charlie Keller, who hit his 20th home run in the opener, smashed No. 21 with the score tied in the ninth Inning of the nightcap to break up a pitching duel between Ernie Bonham and Joe Dobson and give New York a 2-1 decision. In the National league pen nant chase, the Brooklyn Dodg ers crushed the Boston Braves, 11-1, but the St. Louis Cardinals stayed 6Vi games behind by wal loping the Chicago Cubs, 3-1, in a night contest.

Washington, Aug. 20 fffl A new battle over farm prices appeared to be in the making to day following an appeal by Sec retary of Agriculture Wlckard for an amendment to the prloa control law to permit lower eeu ngs on agricultural product. Wickard, reversing his pre vious position, urged farmers in a radio address last night to forego a provision in the price) law prohibiting ceilings of less than 110 per cent of parity. fParlty prices are designed to give farm products purchasing; power equivalent to that of a base period, usually 1909-14). The secretary's new stand wai quickly challenged by Chairman Fulmer (D-SC) of the House Ag riculture committee, who said: "Friends of the farmers will oppose any such change in the price law. Mr. Wickard and Mr. Henderson (Price Administrator Leon Henderson) would do farm ers, consumers and the nation a real service if they would do something about cutting down g" on the margins and profits that middlemen and others make on farm products." In Chicago. Earl C. Smith. vie president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, ex pressed doubt a plan for apply ing price ceilings to livestock could be devised. It would re quire, he said, an army of un trained appraisers and adminis trators and "would bring chaos" to the livestock producing and feeding industry.
