Fred Gay to Pitch For Naval
Air Station; Harvey Storey
Star of Visitors.
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,

brosio of WPRC on short, Har

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.

COMPANY
DEFEATS
IN HARD
Paavo Katonen finally got his
revenge against Tony Morelli in
the Medford armory grappling
ring last night, defeating the
ferocious Floridan two falls to
one in a knock-down-drag-out
battle that followed the same
pattern established in their two
previous bouts.
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.

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.

y is 2-i
New York, July 28. U.P.) In
a clash of "dark dynamite," big
Lee Q. 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.

Labor, the official newspaper of

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.
