Jim Tobin Sold To Detroit Tigers In Surprising Change New York, Aug. 10 (U.R) Jim Tobin brought his tantaliz ing "crawl ball" to the Detroit Tigers today in an effort to in sure them the American League pennant. Tobin, whose slow-stuff made him one of the most bewildering pitchers in the National League, was waived out surprisingly yes terday by the Boston Braves who seemed to have no further use for him. Although the big right-hander won 18 games last year, he had failed to round into top form this season and had won only nine while losing 14. However, a change of uniform has helped a number of other players this year and the Tigers gambled $7,500 that it would help him. Rye, N. Y., Aug. 10 (U.R) Spry Shirley Fry, a 17-year-old from Akron, 0 who broke through the ranks of the favor ites, goes into the quarter-finals of the eastern grass court tennis championships today with a chance to prove that the only upset in 40 matches was no fluke. Miss Fry moved up in the twi light yesterday with a hard won 7-5, 6-8, 6-2 triumph over sea soned Dorothy May Bundy of Santa Monica, Cal., today she must face Mrs- Sarah Paifrey Cooke of Los Angeles, national women's singles champion in 1941, who is seeking to use the Rye tournament as a spring board for another victory in the blue ribbon classic at Forest Hills, N- Y., later in the month.

Generally weak kneed in their hitting of late, the Bengals battered Red Sox pitch ers for 15 safe blows and after successive four-run innings in the third and fourth, had the game salted away. It was "welcome back" for Manager Joe McCarthy of the Yankees who was greeted with a 3 to 2 victory over the Indians at Cleveland after he returned from a two-week illness. He saw one of his pre-war pitchers, Charley (Red) Ruffing, chalk up his third victory since leaving the army.

Salmon fishing at Gold Beach is fair but steelhead fishing with flies is excellent, according to reports received from Frank D. Colvin. Anglers are getting catches all along the river and fish run from one to six pounds. Colvin said he landed 18 steel head this week on size eight Royal Coachman flies. In upper stretches of Rogue river salmon are settling in spawning beds but steelhead fishing is getting good with eggs as best bait. Crappies and Blue Gills are easily caught at Hiati Lake while bass fishing is only fair. Big catfish are being taken on worms. Water at Squaw Lake is still high for good trout fishing but catfish are providing good sport, i Roads are said to be rougn Dut passable. From the few reports drifting in from Four Mile Lake the steelhead are said to be strik ing fast on a troll but care should be taken in driving car in over the bad road from Fish Lake. Trolling is poor at Diamond Lake while bait fishing is only fair. Fly angling is really tops during most of the day, espec ially in rippling water. Most any dark fly will get results. Various areas in the county are closed because of the ex treme fire hazard. The areas are well posted by the forest service and anyone violating the closure is subject to heavy penalty. Among streams closed in Jack son county are Jenny Creek on west side from the Oregon-California line to Klamath river. Keene Creek, Beaver Creek and Sampson creek are all closed.

Grave ' creek, Evans creek and part of Trail creek and its tri butaries are closed to fishing. Sportsmen are advised to check with the forest service if plan ning a trip to an out-of-the-way stream. Ashland and Medford, tradi tional rivals in every sport for many years, will clash in a Southern Oregon league base ball game at the Fairgrounds Park Sunday afternoon, begin ning at 2:30. Ashland is still smarting under the 17 to 6 lac-; ing the Craters handed them at Ashland earlier in the season I and will be out to erase the blot. : Hopes of the Lithians will do-; pend largely on the effectiveness of Jack Douglas against the Med ford club. Douglas has been po- j tent against almost every club he has faced since joining the Ashland aggregation but whe ther he can outsmart Medford batsmen remains to be seen. j Crater boss Paul Freer has not decided who will oppose Ash land on the rubber but indicates it will be either Dick Fawcctt or ! Dick Kidwell. Jess Van Horn's sore arm is healing rapidly but it is doubtful if he will pitch, if he is not desperately needed. j Central Point travels to Klam- j ath Falls Marines in the only other league game.
