Chez May Pitch
Saturday's Game
Joe Chez, former Medford
high and semi-pro pitcher in this
area, may be on the mound Sat
urday when the Stanford univer
sity varsity baseball team is
scheduled to play.
Chez', a sophomore at Stanford
this year, hurled the Indians to
8 4 to 3 victory over California
Monday of this week and is said
to be leading the California In
tercollegiate Baseball association
pitchers with two wins and no
defeats.
Reports here were that the
Medfordite has won six games
and lost none during the entire
season.
Chez in the game against Cali
fornia not only got credit for a
victory as a pitcher but also
contributed two hits in three
tries at the plate, including a
two-bagger, and scored one run.

Bauer Sisters
Now Pro Ranks
New York, Apr. 13 (U.R)
Are professional lady golfers
cuter than amateurs?
Up until today, most "critics"
would have said "no" in loud
chorus, but now things are dif
ferent. The pros have just given
themselves two doses of glamor
with the addition of the beauti
ful Bauer sisters, 22-year-old
Alice and 16-year-old Marlene.
There's no denying the sweet
singing sweethearts from Mid
land, Tex., pack plenty of gal
lery appeal. And there's also no
doubt that they figure to be big
winners in the pro ranks.
Philadelphia Fighters
Win AAU Championships
Boston, Apr. 13 (U.R) Eight
simon-pure champions, t h r e e
from Philadelphia, gave profes
sional ring promoters a squint
at the future today as they head
ed homeward with amateur box
ing's top awards from the 62nd
annual AAU championships at
the Garden.
The Philadelphia team copped
top honors at the three-day mara
thon of maul. The Quaker City
squad captured the flyweight,
lightweight and walterweight
titles.

Rarely if ever does a loser en
ter the winner's circle no mat
ter what the sport but perhaps
Joe Chez and the rest of the
Stanford unversity baseball
squad figure they are going to
be exceptions to this "rule ' this
spring and summer.
The local boy tells us that if
the Indians win the California
Intercollegiate Baseball associa
tion title they probably will go
to the national intercollegiate
tournament back east.
But if Stanford should lose
out on this trip the boys still
can look forward to a visit to
Hawaii for several games.
The Hawaii trip is in the cards
whether they win or lose out
west the trip back east only
if they win.
Of course the trip to the big
national tournament would be a
big thing for Joe and his team
mates but just think what a visit
to Hawaii might be like!
The local Kiwanis club should
be congratulated as well as
thanked for putting up a trophy
and a handsome one too for'
the winner in the fifth annual
Rogue relays here Saturday aft
ernoon. The event needs a shot
in the arm from the fans.
Not that the Rogue relays ever
lack interest among the boys but
often the crowds of onlookers
has been small considering that
the event almost every year
tells pretty much who the lead
ers will be in the Hayward re
lays a week later.
The trophy given by the
Kiwanians will go to the win
ner this year for keeping un
til next spring. A school must
win the award three years to
keep permanent possession.
Incidentally, don't get the
purpose behind the recently
formed Athletics Booster club
wrong.
The organization was formed
to promote local athletics, to be
of whatever help it can furnish
in bettering athletics and as an
aid in selling tickets, interesting
fans and the like.
It is not organized to criticize
coaches or players as are some
such clubs. The Medford club
wants to build up rather than
tear down whether it is school,
semi-pro, amateur or profession
al sports that are being played.
Tricky baseball with "Do
you know the rules" questions
crop up about this time every
year and are of interest to
fans of the diamond sport who
like their technicalities.
Here is one that may not be
old but perhaps it will bring
some discussion in the local hot
stove league:
Runners on first and third
with one out. Batter hits long fly
to outfield and runners on first
and third break for second and
home respectively. Fielder
makes spectacular catch for sec
ond out. Man on first runs dbck,
tags up and tries for second.
Meantime runner on third,
leaving too soon, has scored.
Runner on second gets into run
down and finally is -retired for
third out. With three out you
can't retire anyone else so what
happens if the ball is thrown to
third and does run score?
Hockey
New Westminster, winner of
the Pacific Coast Hockey league
northern division title, will meet
Los Angeles in the southland
Saturday night in the first game
of a playoff series for the league
crown.
The Royals downed the Van
couver Canucks 3 to 2 lust night
in a hard-played overtime con
test to win the northern cham
pionship in the seventh game of
a best-out-of-seven series.

Pete Belcastro, the veteran
muscle manipulator from Weed,

popular Arne Skaaland, are ex
pected to have a man-sized job
before them tonight when they
tackle the Great Atlas and Rod
Fenton in a tag team fracas head
lining Mack Lillards weekly
wrestling show at the armory.
Fenton, who is making his
initial appearance here, was
brought in by the Atlas to make
the other half of a rough and
tough combination. Local fans
already know of the unorthodox
graopling characteristics of the
self-stvled greatest wrestler in
America. The Atlas told Lillard
that, while Fenton naturally
isn't as good as he, the Canadian
is reputedly an expert in Jhe

Government Cuts
Poultry Support
Washington, Apr. 13 (U.R)
The government today unexpect
edly withdrew price support
from all poultry.
Agriculture officials said this
could mean cheaper prices for
turkey during the holiday sea
son next fall.
The agriculture department
announced that for the first time
in nine years there will be no
support for 1950 crop of turkeys
and chickens. This is the first
year since 1941 that support are
not required by lav.. .
The decision was made in the
face of reports indicating that
farmers are planning to boost
production of poultry meat this
year.
Portland. Ore.. Apr. 13 (U.R)
Pacific northwest poultry produ
cers, hatcherymen and proces
sors said today that they were
"completely surprised" by the
government's announcement it
will not support chicken and
turkey prices this year.
E. L. (Roy) Martindale, repre
sentative of the Columbia Pro
duce company, said the govern
ment action came 90 days too
late for area turkey producers
because a majority already are
brooding poults or have ordered
them for delivery by May 1.

A. T. (Slats) Bill, Oregon State
college basketball coach, said to

soared to be for the wide-open
brand of basketball.
"The final two-minute ruling
on personal fouls did more for
basketball than any move in re
cent years to put a halt to vicious
last-minute fouling in attempts
to control the ball," said Gill.
