the Klamath Falls Marines post
poned and played Gold Hill here,
taking a 7 to 3 decision.
Central Point was consider
ably affected by the soft field
Manager Bill Askwith said, but
managed to hold the powerful
Navy nine to eight hits while
collecting five themselves, going
into the eighth frame. Five Cen
tral Point errors came at critical
times and were costly to the
Studders.
Ashland, newest entrant into
the loop, showed lack of practice
and experience in losing to the
improved Butte Falls unit. The
Loggers blasted two Ashland
hurlers for 18 hits and were
aided by six Lithlan errors.
Thomas, Butte Falls catcher, got
a home run, the only circuit
clout of the day. Webster, Log
ger pitcher, hit safely four times
out of five trips to the plate.
Ashland batting honors went
to Jones, second baseman and
pitcher, with four hits out of six
tries and to Larson, catcher, who
hit two for three. i
Medford collected eight hits off
two Gold Hill chuckers in gain
ing the victory while three Med
ford hurlers were touched for
five blows. George Barr started
on the mound for Medford and
gave up three hits and allowed
one run before he was relieved
at end of the fifth inning. John
Reedy ,took over Barr's duties
and gave up two hits and one
run in three innings. Red Davis,
working the final frame, allowed
two Gold Hill men to reach base
but failed to allow a hit or run.
The Craters' heaviest hitter of
the day was Reedy who gathered
three blows out of five times up.

FOR ATTACK ON
New York, June II (U.R)
Stormy Leo Durocher's Immedi
ate - future as manager of the
Dodgers rested today upon the
reactiqn of (1) the King's County
Felony Court, (2) Dodger Boss
Branch Rickey, and (3) the
Brooklyn fans to his alleged at
tack upon a grandstand critic,
Saturday night.
Durocher denied that he and
Special P o 1 i c e m a n Joseph
Moore, attacked the fan, ex-soldier
John Christian,, 21. Duro
cher Is to be arraigned today In
Brooklyn Felony Court.
Jaw Broken
Christian, who suffered a
broken jaw, black eye, and cuts
and bruises on his head and
face, is in Kings County Hospi
tal. He identified Durocher and
Moore as his assailants shortly
before yesterday's double header
with Philadelphia. Both were
taken to a police station and held
on charges of fclonius assault
until they obtained $1000 bail.
Christian, 21 - year old ex
Brooklyn all-scholastic football
star, said he went to the game
against the Phillies Saturday
night and sat in the upper grand
stand behind the home team
dugout near third base.
Heckled Durocher
He said he heckled Durocher
through most of the game, call
ing him a "bum" and a "crook"
and accusing him of "trying to
steal the ball game." He said his
remarks were no more vocifer
ous or pointed than those of
other fans.
After the seventh Inning, he
said, Moore came to his seat and
said. "You're wanted in the of
fice." The 200-pound, six-foot Chris
tian said he refused to go and
that Moore then dragged him
down the. steps. Durocher was
waiting under the grandstand, he
said
According to Christian, Moore
struck him with a blunt instru

Babson Park, Mass., June 8.
(Special Correspondence.) May
I start by calling attention to
the definite statements made in
my Annual Forecast of Decem
ber 28, 1944 in which I said:
"The greater part of Ger
many's army will collapse before
the German planting season
opens in the spring of 194S.
"Japan will nob hold out so
long as most people think. Japan
will collapse within six or
twelve months after Germany
collapses.
"If Stalin's health continues,
he will be the world's most pow
erful man in 1945 and may dic
tate the peace terms, especially
for the Pacific."
i
Few Optimistic At
Clot of Last Year
I am especially proud of the
above forecast in view of the
conditions under which it was
written. Readers will remember
that last summer the public were
very hopeful and looked for the
collapse of Germany at any
time; but I said that there would
be no collapse in 1944. Then the
Germans started their famous
bulge in the middle of December
and Washington was very much
disturbed In fact, a study of
newspaper clippings "will show
that I was almost the only col
umnist who was optimistic at
the close of last year. But I knew
the German temperament.
I have been In Japan since
Germany declared war upon us
and still have an agent in Shang
hai. I, further, have always been
interested in American missions
in both Japan and China. I,
however, am basing my present
forecast upon something else
which may seem very unimport
ant to many readers. I refer to
the fact that my personal house
servant is Japanese, born near
Tokyo. He has lived with us day-and-nlghf
for twenty years and
was preceded by a cousin who
was with us for seven years.
Hence, I know the Japanese tem
perament. Moat Japanese Have -
Human Characteristic .
It Is true that certain Japanese
who descended from a famous
old Prince have the "hari kiri"
religion. These few will commit
suicide rather than surrender.
They now serve as human
bombs. They, however, make up
but a small portion of the Jap
anese people who, as a wholb,
are human like ourselves actu
ated by the same motives. A Jap
anese soldier will ( live on very
little food. This he can carry on
his back. They are tough physi
cal specimens.' Hence, it costs
the Japanese only 20 to sup
port their army of what it costs
us to support an American army.
But what of this? Japan has less
than 20 of our resources.
Japanese soldiers will fearless
ly obey orders and follow a blue
print; but when something
which they have not planned for
happens, they are lost. As a na
tion, they are wonderful copy
ists, but they lack originality.
They had every movement of
this war planned and charted
before Pearl Harbor. Everything
went according to plan in con
nection with Thailand, Indo
China, Burma, the Dutch East
Indies and the Philippines. Then
something happened to their
blueprint!
During the past year their
plans have been of no use and
they have suffered accordingly
In my own household, I can give
a wonderful banquet for twenty
people if I give my Jap a week
bludgeon and hit him some more.
After that he said Durocher hit
him on the law "with a left
hook."

success; but cannot stand failure,
Hence, I feel certain that their
collapse will be only a question
of months.
Global War Will End
Before Most Expect
All the above means that the
global war will be over before
most people expect it. It will be
over before all the boys in Eur
ope have a chance to get to the
Pacific. Except in special depart
ments, the casualties will be
light. Most of the boys may be
home before Christmas.
The above means that re-con
version will steadily continue
tnroughout the year and some
time during next year we will
be going full-blast on consumer
production. A few excellent
years of business with higher
stock prices should follow. Fur
thermore, if we play fair with
Russia, Joseph Stalin should be
one of our best friends so long
as he lives. Upon his death, it is
very possible that Russia will be
split up or suffer civil revolu
tion Then she surely need not
be a menace to the British Em
pire, to China or to ourselves.
DOUBLE HEADER

The Pacific Coast league base
ball race leveled off over the

trampled Hollywood Stars tak
ing a pair from San Diego, 6-3

this season.
The Beavers lost by scores of
6-3 and 3-1 to the Angels but
won the series, 4-3; Seattle won
from San Francisco, 9-5 and 5-0
to annex the series 4-3; and Sac
ramento won both games from
Oakland, 11-8 and 9-8 to take a
5-2 engagement.
