The Marines were Just too much for Medford although George Barr, Medford's starting pitcher, held the leather-necks hitlcss during the first two in nings. In the third frame his ball developed a bad hop and he had to be removed In the third with one out. Dick Kidwell struck out the next two batters but himself got in trouble in the fourth and was relieved by Steve Crippen. - Crippen, bothered by a sore arm, threw only two balls and was replaced by Manager Paul Freer, who went the remainder of the distance. Lee Reynolds, playing second base In the Crater lineup, scored in the first inning on an error by Arnold Gosnell to put Med ford in the lead over Ashland, a margin which the Lithians were never able to overcome. Kidwell, going the route on the mound, was In trouble sev eral times but excellent pitching and a tight Infield carried him through. Every Medford player who made the trip saw action In the game as Manager Freer sub stituted liberally at every posi tion except pitcher and short stop. Bill Malflcld, Ashland first baseman, hit a home run In the seventh inning with none on base for the longest hit of the day. Central Point held the high stepping Marines to a 3-1 count going into the sixth inning when Dewey Hill, veteran Stud catch er, wrenched his shoulder and was removed from the contest. From there on the Studders seemed to break up and the Ma rines went to work.

July 9, 1945 E T Dayton, O., July 9 (U.R) For gotten Jimmy Hines, playing some of the greatest golf of his career, was rated a dangerous dark horse today as qualifying play began in the 27th national tournament of the Professional Golfers' association. About 150 of America's tdp pros, the largest field in the his tory of this celebrated golfing classic, open the 36-hole, quali fying scramble with 18 holes to day over the rolling Moraine Country club course. And, while Byron Nelson Is rated the man to beat, Hines is considered one of his most dangerous challengers because in golf, champions do come back. Despite the size and class of the field, no man has attracted more attention than the 39-year-old Chicago veteran who has brought back memories of the good-old-days ' by turning in par-shattering practice rounds unmatched by anyone. Hines, a former Ryder cup player and one of the hottest golfers in the land back in the middle 30's, has become an "exe cutive golfer" of late, attending more to golf business than tournament play. As chairman of the P.G.A. tournament com mittee, Hines helped revise the Moraine course for this cham pionship. Former Invalid Is Declared New Decathlon Champ Bloomflcld, N.
