EIGHT MEDF0J1D (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. Mir 10. 1930 Washington State Leads Northern Half Ball Race Bv United Press Washington State was a half a game ahead of Washington in the northern division, Pacific Coast conference, baseball race today. The Cougars snowed under Idaho, 13 to 1, in Pullman Tues day while Washington was eag ed by Oregon, 5 to 4, in Seattle, Frirlav and Saturdav W.S.C and the Huskies will battle in Pullman for the league leader ship in a series that probably will decide the champion. Oreaon Scores Two In the Seattle contest, Oregon pushed two runs across the plate in the eigntn inning io uvci take Washington. Bobby Moen, Hnskv nitcher. held the Web foots to six hits in losing his first northern division game of the year. Starting Pitcher Lyle Rogers of Oregon was knocked off the mound in the first inning when the Huskies connected for four hits and three runs. Lefty Uc wayne Johnson took over and went the rest of the way for the win. Oregon's eighth inning scores came when Washington errors allowed men on second and third bases and Ray Stratton singled and a squeeze bunt by Don Kim ball scored the winning run. Portland Driver Third In Mexican Car Races Tuxtla Gutierrez, Mexico, May 10 (U.R) Hershel McGriff of Portland, Ore., today had a second place unofficial position in the Pan-American stock car race down the length of Mexico as the race entered its final, sixth day let to the Guatemalan border.

Mai at Rltnld Phone 2-611 MEDFORD, ,TRIBUNB SPIIffS Fireworks Expected in Mat Clash It probably won't make much difference to the majority of fans whether the Great Atlas or Leo Wallick get the works when they clash in the headline match of Mack Lillard's triple main event wrestling card at the armory Thursday night. No welcoming committees greet Wallick, the Chicago Crip nler. or the Atlas, self-admitted greatest wrestler in the world, when they come to Medford. On the contrary, both men have drawn the wrath of the specta tors on numerous occasions. However, when the hated toughies attempt to annihilate each other in the 45-minute or two-out-of-threc fall session the fans can set back and watch the fun. Both men have hospitalized many opponents with their de structive holds Wallick witn his nile driver and the Atlas with his full nelson and Thurs day' skirmish, which v signed at the incessant request of fans, should produce fire works all the way. Pete Belcastro. who wants a crack at either Wallick or the Atlas, will have a busy evening when he hooks up with Eddie Williams, the sensational Scot. defeat by Williams would erase Belcastro from the picture as far as his desired matches are concerned but the Weed Assassin isn't one to let things stand in his way when he wants something. Poker-faced Ted Bell, Brook lyn, will go against Karl Gray, big Wisconsin farmer, in the first bout, scheduled for the mat at 8:30 p.m. Grade School Baseball Scheduled on Thursday Four baseball games In the lo cal grade school baseball league will be played Thursday after noon at Roosevelt and Jackson school diamonds. 'Play ball' will be at 4:15. Lincoln will be the opponent at Roosevelt school and over at Jackson school Washington will provide opposition. A T3 STRAIGHT BQURBOM This Whisky it 4 Years Old 86 Prool.

Far West league home run record may be set this season if Reading's popular player-manager Ray Perry con tinues to smack roundtrippers at his present rate. He got his seventh homer of the young season last night in leading the Browns to a 16 to 7 victory over the Reno Silversox. The game featured poor pitch ing and numerous errors. A to tal of 27 bases on balls were handed out during the night and the players afield made 10 er rors seven by Reno. Pitcher Bill Carr, 21-game winner last year, led the Pitts burg Diamonds to a 6 to 2 vic tory over the first place Klam ath Falls Gems for his second win of the season. Catcher Lou Valletta paced the winners at bat with three hits in three tries. In other games, the Willows Cardinals got two lucky wins on a stolen base and a wild throw to down the Eugene Larks 9 to 7, and Medford piled up six runs in the second inning to coast to a 7 to 2 victory over Marysville. LaMorra Warned By NBA Leader Faterson, N. J., May 10 U.R) Commissioner Abe J. Greene of the National Boxing association today telegraphed Middleweight Champion Jake LaMotta to name the man he intends meeting in a title fight June 14. Col. Harvey L. Miller, execu tive secretary of the N.B.A. Washington headquarters, began a mail-poll of the N.B.A.'s execu tive committee on the Pennsyl vania proposal to strip LaMotta of his title forthwith. If LaMotta does not "cooper ate" with the N.B.A. by quickly naming the man he will give a shot at the title in Yankee sta dium on June 14, it's a 10-to-l bet the N.B.A. poll will belt him off the middleweight throne. And if the man he names does not appeal to the dozen or so members of the executive com mittee as a "logical contender," the committee may vacate his title anyway. Takes Honors at Show David Lawrence Bridges, Med ford, walked off with top hon ors in the children's handling class of the dog show held Sun day at the fairgrounds at Klam ath Falls, it was learned today. His cocker spaniel was termed best in his class.
