Mel Carpenter, business man
ager of the Medford Nuggets,
said todav that he had declined
an offer of a similar position at
Stockton in the California State
league.
Carpenter said that although
the Stockton offer would be a
step up in organized baseball, he
preferred to remain in Medford
"where I have been a party to
starting the ball rolling and
would like to see it through."
The business manager came
to Medford last spring from
Klamath Falls where he had a
similar position with the Klam
ath Gems, also of the Far West
league.
During the baseball season
Carpenter is employed full time
by Rogue Valley Baseball, Inc.,

works for the club on a part

Pep Winner
By Knockout
Over Riley
St. Louis, Jan. 17 (U.R)
Some day, somehow Feather
weight Champion Willie Pep
will reach the end of the line
but at the moment that sunset
seems far away for the Hart
ford Hurricane.
He defended his title with al
most ludicrous ease last night
when he belted Challenger Char
ley Riley into rigid unconscious
ness in the fifth round of their
scheduled 19-round bout.
Riley was touted as a slugger
who might fire a kayo punch
for an upset victory but against
Pep he was woefully inept.
Pep Timing Topi
Riley's gamenoss and Pep's
mastery of timing was the chal
lenger's undoing. Riley, trying
to land a knockout punch, bun
gled into Pep's smashing one
two that stretched him out on
the canvas after one minute and
one second of the fifth round.
It was the 46th knockout by
Pep in his professional career.
Pep's left drove back Riley's
guard at the fatal moment and
Pep's smashing right connected
with the challenger's jaw. Riley,
stunned, turned slowly about
and slumped forward. He was
out a full minute.

In a doubleheader at Chicago,
the P h il a d e 1 p h i a Warriors
whipped the Sheboygan Reds
kins, 89 to 72, and the Chicago
Stags downed the St. Louis
Bombers, 78 to 69.
