nant, all but faded away today
as he lay in a Philadelphia hos
pital with a broken leg.
The baseball wheel of fortune
rarely has played a crueler
prank than in stopping the stout
hearted Oklahoman in the midst
of one of the greatest comebacks
of the diamond. Benton was an
inspiration to every G. I. ball
player who hopes someday him
self to return to making a living
on the diamond.
Hit By Ball
It was In the fourth Inning
yesterday when fate struck Its
blow. Benton was pitching
against the Athletics and had' a
2 to 1 lead when Estellela hit a
low but sharp line drive which
struck his right leg above the
ankle.
What happened after Benton
left the game, illustrated how
sorely he is needed. Relief
Pitcher Mueller was hammered
for four runs in the next Inning
and Philadelphia won, 7 to 2,
although the game was played
under protest because the A's
batted out of order in the second
and Umpire Rommel ruled the
side retired with only two out.
Both managers protested.
Indians Win
The Cleveland Indians put
over a 10th inning run to beat
the Senators in a night game at
Washington, 1 to 0.
The usually light-hitting Bud
Metheny made a double and two
singles to account for three runs
as the Yankees topped the lead
ing Chicago White Sox at New
York for the second day in a
row, 6 to 3.
The Red Sox bested the St.
Louis Browns at Boston for the
second day, winning, 8 to 6, with
a 14-hit attack on three pitchers.
In the National, Pinch Hitter
Danny Gardella hit a two-run
homer in the eighth to give the
New York Giants a 7 to 6 victory
over the Reds at Cincinnati.
Dick Barrett of the Philadel
phia Phils ended the three-game
winning streak of the Cubs at
Chicago, 6 to 3, beating Veteran
Paul Derringer with a five-hit
pitching job.
A homer by John Barrett in
the 11th gave the Pirates a 10 to
9 edge over the Braves at Pitts
burgh. Charley Barrett, who came to
the Cards yesterday in a trade
for Morton Cooper, got off to a
winning start with his new own
ers, beating the Brooklyn Dodg
ers, 7 to 5, with plenty of hitting
support.

CRATERS TO PLAY
The Medford Craters will
meet Butte Falls, weather per
mitting, at the Fairgrounds park
Sunday afternoon, beginning at
2:30, Manager Paul Freer said
today. Freer said Butte Falls'
baseball uniforms had not yet
arrived but they agreed to go
through with the practice game
anyway. There will be no ad
mission charge.
Weather has hampered the
Loggers' practice sessions but
since the Southern Oregon
league starts a week from Sun
day Butte Falls accepted the
practice date.
Freer said big George Barr,
who held Central Point to one
hit in five innings last Sunday,
will probably start on the mound
for Medford, with Dick Kldwell
and Harold Lang in reserve. The
same lineup which played
against Central Point last Sun
day will probably start. George
Gitzen will catch, Homer Sulli
van will be on first, Freddie
Stammen at second, Lang at
third, Jim Cave at shortstop and
in the outfield will be Harold
Burnham, Dick Fawcett and Ray
Davidoff.

Results In the Pacific Coast
league last night were enough
to unbalance the minds of the
circuit's followers.
The basement-dwelling Holly
wood Stars took their second
straight win over Sacramento,
7 to 6, while the seventh-place
San Francisco Seals trampled
on the leading Portland Beavers
twice, 5-0 and 4-1.
The Seattle Rainiers cut Port
land's margin to two games by
making it three in a row over
Los Angeles, 9-2, and the Oak
land Acorns whipped San Diego,
5-3.
Neat pitching performances by
Frank Seward and Elmer Orella
were responsible for San Fran
cisco's victories. Seward spaced
out five hits in the opener and
Orella turned in a seven-hit job
in the nightcap.
Walks Aid Twlnks
Hollywood tallied its winning
runs against Sacramento in the
sixth inning on two walks, a sin
gle by Les Powers and a double
off the bat of Ken Richardson.
Southpaw Italo Chelini finally
shook off his various arm ail
ments to beat San Diego for Oak
land. Chelini allowed 11 hits but
couldn't be hit in the clutches.
Los Angeles, usually one of
the steadiest fielding teams In
the league, came apart at the
seams against Seattle. The An
gels committed three errors in
the fifth inning to add to Charlie
Cuellar's mound misery.

Fishing season at Diamond
Lake opens Wednesday with the
road from the Medford side ex
pected to be open in a few days,
The deepest snow measuring 14
inches deep lies in a seven-mile
stretch along the summit and
rotary plows are working on it.
The roads to the lake from
Klamath Falls and Roseburg are
open, however.
George Howard reports that
all boats and cottages are
reserved from Wednesday
through June 3. A few smal
ler boats and some hotel re
servations may still be had.
Howard says. The restaurant
will be open.
The water in Rogue river is
far too high for good fishing,
says Al Piche who gathers week
ly information for this column.
Reports from the checking sta
tion at Gold Ray says hundreds
of salmon have gone over the
dam and when water drops fish
ing will be at its best. Three
salmon were taken from Gold
Ray Wednesday on spinners.
Little Butte is too high and
muddy for fishing while Big
Butte will be good li the water
drops. It is now right color
for eggs. From Medford south
io Talent, Bear Creek is said
to furnish good angling with
worn.f getting best results.
Also a spinner with fly attach
ed has been successful.
Fish Lake has been spotty all
week and the last six miles of
the road is rutted with many
chuck holes. The road to Hiatt
Lake is passable with chains
and bass, crappy and catfishing
reported good.
With continued rains, Pros
pect and Emigrant Dams should
be good angling spots.

"Gorgeous" George Wagner
turned loose with everything but
wrestling holds last night at
Medford armory to win a two-
out-of-three fall decision from
Paavo Katonen In the main
event of the weekly mat card.
Wagner got the first tumble in
the second round with a leg hold
and Katonen knotted the score
in the third with a clever should
er press. While both men were
tied up In the ropes, Referee
Earl Yoakley went between
them to break the hold and in
doing so dumped Katonen on
the back of his head, dazing
him. Wagner Jumped on him
for the winning fall.
Sailor Hogan, showing speed
and skill seldom seen In the
armory ring, lost to "Sneeze"
Achieu when he missed a son
nenburg and fell from the ring,
landing on his shoulder. He fell
victim to hammerlocks in the
third and fourth rounds.
Kenny Ackles took a lone fall
decision over Antone Leone on
a foul in the opener. Leone's
brand of dirty tricks was too
much for the referee to stand
and he stopped the bout.
Washington, May 25 (U.R)
"The drought's over," the liquor
industry declared today.
The occasion for their pro-.
nouncement was, of course, the
War Production board's an
nouncement that they could
make spirituous liquors during
the month of July.
Not only that. The WPB said
the supply of war alcohol indi
cated the industry would get
other go-aheads "from time to
time."
This, an industry spokesman
said, means that from now on
the industry will try to meet
consumer demand.
Given the nod by the WPB,
distilled spirits which will turn
up as gin, rum, whiskey and
cordials will start pouring
from spigots July 1.
The July go-ahead probably
will have an immediate effect
on retail liquor stores. With of
ficial assurance that more whis
key will be made, wholesalers
are releasing their aged stocks
for consumer sale without wait
ing for the new supplies to come
from the distilleries.

VICKERY ASSAILS
WORKERS LEAVING
SHIPYARD POSTS
Portland, May 25 U.R The
30,000 persons who are leaving
shipyard jobs throughout the
nation every month are, in the
opinion of Vice-Adm. Howard L.
Vickery, vice chairman of the
U. S. Maritime commission,
"The damnedest bunch of
slackers."
"These birds who are leaving
are holding up the ships and
making it necessary for the rest
of us to work harder and longer
to finish the jobs," said Vickery,
here today in the course of a
tour of Pacific northwest ship
yards. "These people who are leaving
the yards now and going home
are the damnedest bunch of
slackers," he declared. "I feel
strongly about this. We are in
dire need of the ships being built
here. If we didn't need them we
would stop building them and
save our money.
IZVESfFLAYS
BRITISH POLICY
Moscow, May 25 (U.PJ
Eugeni Zhukov, the newspaper
Izvestia's correspondent at San
Francisco, reported today that
there were rumors in newspaper
circles of a lack of unity in the
American and British delega
tions on the Crimean decisions.
"Worrying rumors penetrate
the press that British foreign
policy may generally undergo a
serious change. It is motivated
by the fact that as long as Ger
man bombs cease to fall on Lon
don and the danger Is passed
England, as after the First World
War, 'traditionally' is seeking a
new system for the political bal
ance of Europe."
Zhukov said rumors of the
change in British policy shows
clearly that the "system" can't
have anything in common with
the Crimean decision of interna
tional security.

Washington, May 25 (U.PJ A

ceeded its authority, it was dis
closed today.
Capt. John J. Windberry, le
gal counsel for the Smith com
mittee to Investigate executive
agencies, said the hearings
would start either Tuesday or
Thursday.
Although Windberry said the
complaints covered "about 100
little things that have hap
pened," Rep. John Phillips, R.,
Calif., said he had submitted evi
dence to the committee dealing
with NLRB's procedure In call
ing elections among packing
house workers in California.
His evidence, he said, came
from constituents in southern
California who claimed NLRB
virtually acted as an organizer
for CIO unions.
