Play Two Tonight at 6:30;
Here Monday; Locals Win
Medford Roguas and Klam
ath Falli Garni will concluda
their current Far West league
aeries tonight with a twin bill
at the local fairgrounds at
6:30. Due to much Interest in
Klamath Falls as woll as Med
ford a large crowd is expected.
Monday night at 7:45 at the
local park the Rogues will
open a four-game series with
Ray Perry and his Redding
Browns, currently on top of
the league standings.
By Hank Green
Baseball fans who treked out
to the fairgrounds park Friday
night saw one of the best played
and pitched games from a Med
ford standpoint that has been
put on this season by the Rogues
in the Far West league with the
local boys copping a 4 to 2 vic
tory. Jack Lloyd on the mound for
the Rogues handcuffed the Klam
ath Falls Gems effectively after
a shiiky start with only one man
getting as far as second base
after the first inning in which
the Gems had combined two
walks and a long double for its
only runs.
Strikes Out Nine
The big local righthander
struck out nine, walked four
and gave up but four scattered
hits. Only in the Klamath half
of the ninth did the Gems
threaten after the first stanza.
Medford in the meantime lash
ed out seven hits and was aided
by three of Klamath s misplays
in making four runs.
In the second innintr Don Wil
liams wont all the wav to second
when Shortstop Snuffy Sahlberg
threw his ground ball by the
iirsi Daseman lor an error. Wil
liams went to third when Pitch
er Gene Shirtledge tried to pick
him off second and scored when
Milt Martin reached first on a
misplay.
Rogues Score Pair
Two Rogues' runs, scored In
the third stanza when with one
out Johnny Popovich drew a
walk and scored as Bob Had
dock rapped a triple Into tight
center. Haddock in turn crossed
the plate when with two out Al
Bolen grounded a single into
right center field.
The boys manased bv Tnmmv
Nelson pushed over their fourth
and last run of the game in the
fifth frame as Jack Cooney open
ed with a walk, went to second
as Popovich singled to left, stole
tnira and scored after Williams
had flied deep to right.
Some heads-up base running
in the eighth Inning by Bill
Adams gave the lefthanded cen
tcrfleldcr a double Instead of a
one-baser Into right center. He
saw the fielders were slow in
picking up the ball and kept
right on going after rounding
first base.
Martin's Tough Luck
Martin had tough 1'ick in the
hitting department with a vici
ous liner to the shortstop In the
tourth inning, another to center
field In the sixth and a drive
that almost knocked down the
pitcher In the eighth.
Medford lost a run In the verv
first Inning when Rus.i Stuart
drew a walk and was forced at
second by Cooney. Coonev went
to third on Haddock s sharp line
single to right but when he tried
to score he was called out at the
plate.
Most fans, Rogues' players and
press box people thought Coonev
was safe by a considerable mar
gin, however.

BARTLE GETS ONE HIT
Dick Bartle. former first base
man for the Medford Nuggets
and now a regular with the Sa
lem Senators of the class B
Western International league,
whacked out one hit in three
tries Friday night and figured
in n double plav as Salem lost
H to 1 to Tri Cily.

Petitions are out among Med
ford baseball fans to bar homers
in any ball park the Rogues play
in and especially in Redding and
Willows, where the fences are
somewhat nearer home plate
than they are at the fairgrounds
ball orchard. '
Seriously, though. It has been
homeruns often three in a
game at those two California
cities that have beaten the
Rogues. Last week the Browns
did the trick in three straight
games at Redding and homers
were largely responsible for
Medford losses.
The Rogues do not prstsnd
to have homerun batting pow
er, to spare, especially in the
local park where some of the
longest distances in the league
exist to the barriers. Two or
three on the local club are
capable of homers but aren't
what one would call "danger
ous." Incidentally, don't blame the
players too much when a "steal"
goes haywire because more often
than not it wasn't intended as a
stolen base at all.
What we mean is that usually
with a man on first base or even
on second if the set-up, is right,
me Daiter is given tne sign to
bunt as a sacrifice or to hit be
hind the runner on a hit and run
play to advance the runner a
base or two.
Any manager can tell you that
not only will a young player miss
the sign to bunt or hit but often
will miss the ball itself, thus
leaving the runner on his way
to a base and without the aid of
even a foul ball that would pre
vent a plav from beine made on
him.
Manager Tommy Nelson of
the Rogues tells of how one lo
cal player missed a bunt sign
in the first game of last Sun
day's double-header and how
another local boy was caught
"stealing" because of that mis
take. One of the most popular and
toughest trapshoots in Oregon is
scheduled today at the Medford
Gun club when the 17th annual
Mail Tribune shoot is held start
ing at 9 a. m.
As a matter of fact the whole
week-end of activities at the lo
cal club probably will attract 100
or more scattergunncrs from
western Oregon and northern
California.
Some of the best traoshooting
talent in this section of the Pa
cific coast will be on hand so if
you have some time today why
not drop out to the gun club
grounds west of the Crater Lake
highway at Four Corners. Every
one will be welcome, young and
old.
Opening of the Hawthorne
park swimming pool scheduled !
lodav at 2 n. in. will herald a ni?w
high in local recreation for young !
ana nin or meotora.
The city has made a fine ;
start toward a tull time recre
ation program and park areas
in which to conduct it. Per
haps in another year or two a
playground program such as
most cities conduct can be
opened at that and other city
parks or schools.
Playground programs for kids
