Paul Freer, manager of the Medford-Camp Whie league all- stars who will face the powerful U. S. Naval Air Station nine from Klamath Falls at the fair grounds park Sunday afternoon, said today that Steve Crippen, ace hurler of the pennant-winning Medford Craters, would start on the mound against the visitors. The game will begin at 2 o'clock sharp and, in line with navy policy, no admission will be charged. Crippen will probably be op posed by Fred Gay, star south paw of the fliers.' Gay, during his professional ball - playing days prior to entering the ser vice, was with San Francisco, Oakland, Hollywood and Port land in the Pacific Coast league, and pitched for the Kansas City Blues in the Little World Series in 1939. Crippen will be backed up by Ted Bergold, the little WPRC lefthander and Don Safford. southpaw of the Crater staff. The naval air station, in case Gay weakens, will have on hand Jim Olsen, who elbowed for the San Diego Padres before the war. Lineups Listed Freer said that Brocker, Hoag, both of WPRC, or he would do the catching for the all-stars, with Homer Sullivan of the Cra ters on first, Don Wilkey of the Craters on second, Tony D'Am brosio of WPRC on short, Har old Lange of the Craters on third, Paul Lucido of WPRC in left, Virgil Swanson of the Cra ters in center and Dave Otte of WPRC in right. Fred Stanmcn of the Craters will be a reserve infieder and Floyd Lawson, Cra ters and Red Davis, WPRC, will be reserve outfielders. The air station club, which de feated the Craters, 14 to 7 on July 16 at Klamath Falls, will be led by Harvey Storey, short stop, who has played for the Chicago Cubs, San Francisco Seals, Los Angeles Angels and Tulsa Oilers. Storey is a savage hitter and great fielder. Ens. F. Rickey, only officer on the team, will play third base. He is the nephew of Branch Rickey, general man Hnw U. S.

RAMPAGING TRIBE ON HOAG'S HITS New York, July 20 (U.R) The Cleveland Indians have on their war paint and it's devil take the hindmost when the other teams of the American league invade their battlefield. Currently, the New York Yankees, backtracking world champions, are feeling the sting of the Indian war club. Yesterday, the erstwhile Bronx bombers were consistent to their present trend. The pitching was shoddy, their field ing butter-fingered and their hitting ineffective, as witness the fact that they made but a single run on 11 hits as Cleve land triumphed 8-1. The victory brought the Tribe to within 11 percentage points of the Yankees, now tied with the Boston Red Sox in second place, 3V4 games back of the pace-setting St. Louis Browns. Walter Dubiel went the distance for the champs and allowed 13 hits, including two doubles and two singles by Myril Hoag, who was a Yankee himself once. The Red Sox gained their tie for second place by virtue of a 6-1 win over the Detroit Tigers. The hapless Washington Sen ators bowed to the four-hit pitching of Orval Grove of the Chicago White Sox losing 4-0. The tail-end Philadelphia Athletics sneaked up from the cellar to slap down the St. Louis Browns, 7-5. In the National league, the Cincinnati Reds regained sec ond place over the idle Pitts burgh Pirates by taking the measure of the Boston Braves, 4-2. The lading Cardinals stretch ed their advantage to 14V4 games and completed a clean sweep of their four game series with the Philadelphia Phillies by taking both ends of a double header, 8-7 and 5-0. Chicago at Brooklyn and Pitsburgh at New York were postponed because of rain. STUNT MAN DIES Philadelphia, July 28 U.R Nelson L.

The Pacific coast light-heavyweight champion took the de ciding fall with a resounding body slam and press after three times climbing back in the ring from whence he was hurled by the burly Morelli. It looked like Katonen was about done in as Morelli, un leashing a savage series of punches, hammered the Finn to the ropes and tossed him into the customers. This happened three times, but Katonen wasn't so bad off as he appeared. The last time he crawled back Into the squared circle Morelli rushed in for what he decided was the "kill." It was that, all right, but not for Morelli. Katonen met him with a bang, wrapped his powerful arms around him and flipped him to the deck. The champion took the first fall with a body press after both had cut loose with everything in the book. Morelli evened the count a short time later with a headlock and press. Jack Lipscomb defeated Herb Parks, the Canadian light-heavy king, in the semi-windup, tak ing falls in the first and third rounds with a self-strangle and press and with a leg-breaker. Parks got a fall in the second with a toe hold. Pat "Rowdy" O'Doudy and Billy Konke went to a fall apiece draw in the opener. O'Doudy, a scowling character who wasn't too orthodox, ob tained a fall in the first heat with a reverse leg-breaker, while Konke used a press for his tum ble in the third. UOW THEY?

(U.R) Jimmy Ripple, 34 year old former veteran of the. major leagues, whose portside batting for the Rainlcrs gave the San Francisco Seals plenty of trouble at Seattle last week, has signed with the San Francisco club, Manager Frank "Lefty" O'Doul announced today. Ripple, who was five seasons with the Giants, Dodgers and Reds, and played in the world series with the Giants in 1936 and 1937, was released this week by the Rainiers. PREXY ORDERS REPLAY OF PADRE-SEAL GAME Los Angeles, July 28 (U.R) Clarence "Pants" Rowland, Pa cific Coast league president, to day ordered the July 2 game between the San Diego Padres and the San Francisco Seals played out from the point where the Seals were one run ahead with a man on third. San Diego was guilty of obvi ous stalling in the game which resulted in a deadlocked 3-3 score when the 5:45 time limit invalidated the Seals' three-run lead in the eighth, Rowland said.

Hollywood won Its 17th game in 18 starts against Oakland this year, 4-2, while San Diego turn ed on Sacramento to squeeze out a 2-1 triumph in 11 innings. Portland moved into fifth place by trimming Seattle 3-1. Roy Helser twirled a six hit ter for Portland against Seattle, but had to have help from Ad Liska to stave off a Rainier threat in the ninth before the Beavers won 3-1 and squared the series at two all. Joe Demoran, Seattle hurler, was banished in the eighth for arguing with the umpire.

Murray of Connecticut is a 2-1 favorite to beat Squat Tur key Thompson of Los Angeles tonight in their 10-round bout at Madison Square Garden. Both negro heavyweights are knock out artists. Murray is favored to ruin Thompson's debut because of his advantages in range height and reach. Although both scale vir tually 206 pounds, Murray of South Norwalk, Conn., stretches up six feet two inches, whereas no-neck Thompson, the "Black Galento", is sawed off at five feet eight inches. Because of their punching prowess, the bout shapes up as a black natural which is expect ed to attract about 15,000 fans and a gate of $50,000. YANKS LOSE HEMSLEY Cleveland, O., July 28 U.R) The pennant anxious New York Yankees today fuccd the remainder of the season without a first string catcher following Rollie Hcmsley's draft board order to report for induction at Vienna, Mo., on August 8.

Washington, July 28 (U.R) Labor, the official newspaper of IS railway unions, today ex pressed alarm over the program of the CIO political action com mittee and said PAC was "full of ominous possibilities for the entire labor movement." The newspaper said editorial ly that it was concerned about the Dlans of PAC Chairman Sid- ' ney Hillmnn to rnise "great slush funds and about Hillman's "open alliance with the com munists in New York state and elsewhere." ". . . If Mr. Hillmnn or anyone else imagines that a proposal to raise $6,000,000 to control a presidential campaign will not cause tho most serious repercus sions from one end of this coun try to the other, he simply does not know the American people," Labor said.
