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.

George Wagner for next Thurs

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

that Pete Belcastro, the Wild

FIRESTONE STORES
By LOWLY PHILLS;
New York, June 23 (U.R)
For most of this season it was a
true saying that "there's nothing
wrong with any team a series
with the Phillies won't cure,"
but today's doing at Philadelphia
indicated there's nothing wrong
with the Phillies that a series
with the New York Giants won't
eure.
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.
