By Hank Graan "It was cold outside" last night but the Medford Rogues and the Marysville Braves saw to it that there was plenty of action and the opening night crowd of some 1,016 fans braved the cool air and rain sprinkles to see the local Far West league team post a victory. Medford came out on the long end of a 11 to 10 score through wildness on the part of Marys' ville pitchers but the same kind of work also kept the Rogues in hot water. Walks Aid Rogues The winning run for the Rogues in the sixth inning was made on walks to ttuss Stewart, Tommy Nelson and Milt Martin with two men out. A wild pitch finally allowed Stewart to score irom tmra Dase wnn ne Dig tally. Player Manager Nelson of Medford had to remove himself from the game in the seventh inning when he strained a pulled muscle suffered at Reno. He said he probably will be out of the fame for several days and that -.loyd Jones would take his place at the second base sack. Floyd Shotwell, starting hurl ar for the Rogues, gave up but two hits in the three innings he hurled but in that time the right hander also allowed eight walks that proved his downfall. Carl Hueners of the Jackson ville clan walked two and hit one with a pitched ball. How ever, three well-timed hits hurt him also. Herrmann Winner LaVerre Herrmann of Central Point came in and pitched fairly effective ball and got credit for the victory. He allowed but three hits and two walks. Four Marysville pitchers 'were Just as wild as the Rogues mound staff as they passed 12 Medford boys and the cold wet weather seemed to effect both pitching staffs alike. Big stick for the Rogues was Rightfielder Don Williams who rapped out four hits in five tries and drove in three runs. Milt Martin got two for four, Shot well, Third Baseman Al Bolen and Russ Stewart one for two and Herrmann had perfect night with one hit in a single trip. The only extra base blow by Medford was a triple to the foot of the scoreboard by Martin in the third inning. Double Play Good Medford's "second" combina tion of Nelson and Stewart look ed good on a double play com bine in the fifth stanza with Nel son firing the grounder to Stewart who slammed the throw over to Cooney for the second out. First Baseman Jack Cooney of the Rogues looked "classy" for his first appearance as a pro player and only a year or two out of high school. He arrived here by plane yesterday after noon and insisted on playing last night. Opening day ceremonies were conducted by A. Z. "Tubby" Dean, president of Rogue Valley Baseball, Inc., sponsors of the Rogues. Mayor Diamond Flynn represented the city and leaders in the Athletics Booster club helped.

Preliminary heats will be run in all events where too many are entered to have them run off in one. All distance events will be so-called "short distance" ex cept the 100-yard dash. In other words the 220 will be a 150, the 440 a 330 and so on. STANDINGS rAR WEST LEAGUE Klamath Fall!

They also condemned the orac- tice of universities which lure hiRh school athletes with schol arships or job offers. Wallick Top Man Armory Wrestling Leo Wallick is still the top bad man in Mack Lillard's wres tling stable following his defeat of Ted Bell in the final match of last night's battle royal card at the armory. The end came when Bell missed a drop kick, injuring his back. Wallick picked him up for a pile driver but Keferee tarl Yoakley stepped in and ruled that Bell was in no shape to con tinue. They were survivors of the battle royal. After Bell, in the free-for-all, had given Wallick and Cum' mines a bad time for a few min utes, the meanies teamed up and were dishing out a solid drubbing to the Brooklyn boy when Wal lick tripped Bob Cummings and Bell and the Chicago Cuffer piled aboard for the fall. Cummings lost on a foul to bddie Williams, third man elim inated, in their regulation match. Yoakley ruled that Cummings had no business slamming Wil liams, the Flying Scotchman, in to a turnbuckle in Williams' cor ner and therefore disqualified the champion. Cummings ranted long and loud but it brought him naught. Charley Carr, first man out, had too much experience for Nor val Stockstill, Ashland police man, who was the second one eliminated, and won their scrap with a uosion crab. Llllard announced that the Great Atlas, hated New York strong man, who is an expert with the full nelson, has been signed for next week's card. The promoter said he would open ne gotiations with Wallick or Cum mings as possible opponents. High School Golfers Vie Play opened today at Eugene Country club in the second round of the upstate golf tournament for high school boys with Med ford starting the round in sec ond place behind Corvallis. The Tornado golfers won that posi tion aoout two weeKs ago at Cor vallis. The week-end tourney this time will consist of 18 holes to day and as many tomorrow. Taking part for Medford high are Phil Gctchell. Ed Oldfield, Bill McAllister, Justin Smith and Bob Shepherd. Robert Shepherd, father of Bob, drove them up north.
