TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, June 24. I94S Doug Davis Will Oppose Shrier on Rubber Today SOUTHERN OREGON LEAGUE Standings: W. Navy M.dford Butte Falls . Central Point Marines ... Ashland ...... Pet. 1.000 1.000 .900 .500 .000 .000 Doug (Red) Davis, the 17-year- old pitcher who hurled the Med ford Craters to a spccacular '9-3 win over Butte Falls last Sun day, will face Glenn Shrier, also 17, when the Craters clash with the Central Point Studs in a Southern Oregon league base ball game at the Fairgrounds park this afternoon, beginning at 2:30. Neither youthful chucker lost a game in their respective high school leagues this season and both are in excellent condition for today's game. Shrier will have the advant age of Dewey Hill, 47-year-old veteran of Southern Oregon baseball behind the plate while Davis' receiver, George Gitzen, is a steady player but lacks Hill's experience. Davis, who stands a mere five feet six inches, is not a speed ball artist but relics on a good curve, a nice hop and excellent control. Shrier, who reaches six feet four inches into the air, de pends entirely on his fast ball and a notorious windup to con fuse the batters. Manager Paul Freer said yes terday he will probably start Homer Sullivan on first base, Freddie Slammen on second, Harold Lange at third, Al Kir cher at short stop and Herb Burnham, Dick Babb and either Ray Davidoff or Carl Reich in the outfield. Other league games send Ash land to tho Klamath Falls Navy and the Klamath Falls Marines to Butte Falls.

LILLARDlEEKS Mack Llllard, boss of the weekly Medford armory wrest ling programs, said yesterday he Is making an effort to rematch Antone Leone and "Gorgeous'.' George Wagner for next Thurs day night. Wagner lost last week after a hectic bout that saw both men swing stools and Leone take the deciding fall by clubbing Wagner into submission with the announcer's microphone. Wagner, so far, is reluctant to accept the match, claiming he has no desire to meet a man who would stoop so low to win. Leone told Llllard to bring on the Eugene turkey grower if he wanted some more of the same medicine. Lillard said that Walter "Sneeze" Achieu would be on the card Thursday and added that Pete Belcastro, the Wild Wop from Weed, would appear at the armory soon.

The downtrodden Phils, who stepped into the Polo Grounds last Sunday and slapped their unhappy hosts down twice, beat the Giants at Philadelphia today for the second straight game, 9 to 8 in 11 innings. The Phils won twice. In the first inning they jumped on Bill Voiselle, who once was the Giants' best pitcher, for most of the six runs they scored in that frame. How ever, as is the way with the Phils, that lead frittered away and they had to squeeze another run home in the 11th. The world champion St. Louis Cardinals stayed close on the heels of the National league leading Brooklyn Dodgers by beating Chicago for the second straight day, 6 to 4. Despite frantic efforts to give the game away, the New York Yankees won over the Philadel phia Athletics 7 to 6. Page wild pitched the first three Philadel phia runs home, Metro hit a home run off Turner in the eighth, and in the ninth Yank Third Baseman Grimes made an error that allowed the A's to tie. George Stainback's fourth hit drove in the winning run. An error by Bob Johnson cost the Boston Red Sox a 6 to 5 de feat at the hands of the Washington Senators. Johnson dropped a fly in the seventh in ning and two runs scored. Dan Walland Dies Of Okinawa Wounds Dan Walland, 19, aviation radioman third class and n inn of Mr. and Mrs. T.
