BASEBALL TREAT AT Medford's biggest baseball treat in several years comes to i the Fairgrounds park tomorrow ! night when the Fort Lewis War- i I riors cross bats with the South- trn Oregon All-Stars, made up of players from the Klamath I Falls Naval Air Station, Klamnth Falls Marine Barracks and the Medford Craters. The Warriors have several big league stars on their roster; holders of major league con tracts but now doing time in the armed service of their country. Beat PCL Teams Fort Lewis recently took on Oakland and Los Angeles of the Coast League in a double header and emerged on the long end of 3-1 and 5-3 scores. Portland, i currently heading the coast loop, ! has extended a cold shoulder to i invitations to face the Warriors. ; Warrior officials claim they have three times had games sched uled with the Seattle Rainiers only to have the coast leaguers cancel out each time. Gale Bishop, Washington State basketball great, is one of the few Warriors who does not hold a big league contract. But Bishop has been watched closely this year by Joe Devine of the New York Yankees who pro-; nounces him as a sure-fire major ; leaguer at second base. Kelleher In Lineup Frank Kelleher, who led the Coast league with 30 home runs last season while with the Holly wood Stars, is another who is not in the top circuit but can go up to the big time whenever he chooses. Ford Mullen, under contract to the Philadelphia Phillies, Is an ex-University of Oregon star. Don Johnson, speed-ball pitcher with the New York Yankees, is a former Port land Legion player and was a diamond star at Jefferson high school in Portland. Paul Freer, who will manage the All-Stars, said he will start Pat Patterson of the Navy, him self a speed ball chucker, on the hill with "Bo" Bogarski, Ma rines, doing the receiving. Cliff Proctor, president of the Medford Athletic association, sponsors of the game, said there will be an increase in admission prices due to the added cost of bringing the Warriors to Med ford.
