SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Rogues Vs. Redding Tonight nd Thursday, Fairgrounds w"""d T Ju" 7 1,50 1 Pick Sa void Challenger Heavy Crown The Medford Rogues and the Redding Browns led by tne popu lar Manaeer Ray Perry will try to get back into the Far West league results column tonight and Thursday evening at the Fairgrounds park with single games both times ai :. Last night's get-together was postponed about 7:30 because of cold weather. The field was in fair condition and could have been plaved on, but Managers Tommy Nelson and Perry with local club officials decided to postpone it. The game probably will be made part of a doubleheader the next time the Browns are in Med ford late in July. Rogues Gain a Bit Defeat of both Klamath Falls, second in the standings, and of Pittsburg which had been tied with the Rogues for fourth spot, allowed the local club to gain a half came on both. Medford now is in sole possession of fourth place, a hall game aneaa of the Diamonds. Weather permitting, Jack Llovd probably will be on the mound for the Rogues tonight opposed by Pat Gosncy who is said to have a no wins and one defeat for the Browns. Lloyd racked up a victory for the Rogues last week Friday as he helped defeat the Klamath Falls Gems, the only win the Rogues made In that series. Cool Weather Seen The local weather bureau sta tion said this morning that wea ther tonight probably will con tinue cool but it thought it would be good enough for baseball. The forecaster said the cloudy con riilions were clennng up slowly and expected better weather by Thursday. While neither Player Manager Nelson nor Business Manager Mel Carpenter would mention any names until the deals were completed, it was learned yester day that the Rogues have several possibilities for pitching help "on the fire." Nelson said that "the wires are hot" between here and several sources, indicating the New York Giants with whom the Rogues have a working agreement, may help Medford. U.4JJ. . .

The circuit blow was good for two runs in the eighth inning win over Sncramento at 6 to 2. As the Solons slipped lower into the Pacific Coast league cel lar there was every sign that the Acorns are determined to blaze their way to the top of the league. Oakland started their show in the third inning when George Metkovich hit his eighth homer of the year. They adtled another run in the fourth as Augie Galan singled and later scored on Pitch er George Bamberger's hit into a force play. Galan crossed again in the sixth.

H. P. Everest, PCC president and head of the University of Washington Journalism school, said the conference will meet June 12-14 in Victoria, B.C., to discuss the possibilities for work ing out a new pact. He said there is some chance the two conferences may later reach a compromise that would permit a Big 10 football team to play in Rose Bowl games as often as every two years. At present the Big 10 allows no team In the conference to play in the Rose Bowl more than once In three years. There were 210 seta of twins born in San Francisco in 1049. Paterson. N. J.. June 7 (U.R) Abe J. Greene, commissioner of the National Boxing association, announced today that the N.B.A. will recognize Lee Savold as No. 1 challenger for the world heavy weight crown because of his im pressive victory over Bruce Woodcock at London last night. Blond Savold, 34, of nearby Englewood, N. J., won recogni tion throughout Europe and the British empire as heavyweight champion by scoring a technical knockout over Woodcock of Eng land at the end of the fourth round before 50,000 at London's White City stadium. Woodcock, 29, was bleeding so badly from nose, mouth and a gashed left brow that his hand lers forbade him to continue. They tossed In a towel. Commissioner Greene empha sized that Ezzard Charles of Cin cinnati still is recognized as world champion by the N.B.A., despite Savold's foreign titles and despite uncertainty about Charles' physical condition. Under orders from physicians, Charles is now resting because of a heart condition. An N.B.A examination in August will dis close whether Charles can con tinue fighting or must retire. YANKSNEED ALL HURLERS FOR TIGERS New York. June 7 (U.R) Mir acle man Casey Stengel has staged many surprises in his two seasons as boss of the world champion New York Yankees, but no trick will be neater than if he can get by the next three days against the Detroit Tigers with only five dependable pitch ers. The Yankees went into the three-game series in second place, two percentage points behind the on rushing Tigers, even though they still are half a game ahead in the won and lost columns. The Yankees pitching scarcity showed up again in yesterday's 16 to 2 drubbing by the Indians yesterday. Bob Porterfield, one of the three "dead-loss" hurlers. was touched for seven runs and nine hits in two innings and Don Johnson allowed the rest. Cleve land had 22 hits including homers by Joe Gordon and Jim Hegan. Stengel must use his four top starters, Vic Raschi. Tommy Byrne Ed Lopat and Allie Rey nolds, and the ace reliever, Joe Page, against Detroit. But that leave. only Porterfield, Johnson and Porky Sanford. The Tigers breezed to an 11 to 8 decision over the Senators at Washington, making 16 hits as Pitcher Fred Hutchinson and Johnny Groth led the way with three apiece. STANDINGS FAR WEST I.EAOl'K W. L.

Gems, Pittsburg Lose In Far West Baseball By United Press Two Vince DiMagglo's, one Vince S. of Eugene, the other, cousin Vince P. o Pittsburg, drew attention in the Far West Baseball league last night. Vince from Pittsburgh, usual ly an outfielder, went in to help Pittsburg against Willows as a relief pitcher in the seventh in ning and objected to the plate umpire's decisions. He was promptly ousted from the con test and Willows won, 19 to 13. Vince from Eugene bunted an intended sacrifice that rolled in to a hit to give Eugene a 7 to 6 victory over Klamath Falls. The blow scored Busher Smith from third. Smith had singled, was sacrificed to second and took third on a wild pitch. The other two league games, Redding at Medford and Reno at Marysvllle were postponed because of rain and wet grounds.

Sport Parade OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer Oscar Fralcy Philadelphia, June 7 (U.R) Fearing the end of a long base ball trail, silver-haired Connie Mack admitted yjae . ia today that his 6? ijLzVM dreams of "just one more pen n a n t" had turned into a A nightmare. This was. to have been the year, Connie believed, when his dreams might come true. He had, he thought, one of the best pitching staffs in baseball and the vision was bright for his 10th American league flag. Long years of disappointment lay behind him. His beloved Athletics hadn't won a pennant since 1931. Since 1933 they hud been in the first division only once, a fourth place windup in 1948 and last season they had skidded to fifth. But at 87, Connie asserted, you have learned patience. He had waited, hopefully, and this year that long-thwarted dream ap peared to be nearing fulfillment. Yet things didn't work out the way he had planned. The pitch ing staff which promised great ness was a fraudulent imitation and in the major leagues when you can't get 'cm out you can't win. So today the A's are in a hopeless cellar battle with the St. Louis Browns and Connie's heart, bright with hope in the spring, is heavy and his once bright blue eyes are shaded with disillusion. "Nobody will ever know how disappointed I am," he said bitterly. "I thought this might be my year but I . ave to admit now that it isn't. I enn't tell you how greatly dis appointed I am." You could tell, as you listened to the lean leader who for 50 years has guided the A's, that he had just about given up the ghost for this year. He admit ted that it now had simmered down to a three-team race, among the New York Yankees, the Detroit Tigers and the Bos ton Red Sox. "Our pitching failed us," Con nie admitted. "Dick Fowler has recurrent bursitis which has be come worse. Joe Coleman has a bad pain in his shoulder. Alex Kellner has had a difficult time getting started. Frankly, I have no hope for Fowler and Cole man. "Look ai the statistics and you'll see why we h a t e Favor Snead In Golf Open Ardmore, Pa., June 7 (U.PJ The big man who wasn't there and a little man who was today halved foreign hopes of captur ing the U. S. open golf champion ship for the first time since Eng land's Ted Ray turned the trick in 1920. The big man who didn't appear was British open champion Bobby Locke. Suspended from cash tournaments for almost a year before his recent reinstate ment. Locke snubbed the open despite the fact that he prob ably would have been the favor ite. But the foreign threat still was there in the person of wee Nor man von Nida, a confident Australian, who liked his own chances "given a few breaks on the greens." In Lokes's absence the role of favorite went to Slammin' Sam my Snead, the year's leading money winner, with plenty of backing for Ben Hogan, Jimmy Demaret, Lloyd Mangrum and Jim Ferrier. Trans-Mississippi Golf Tourney Opens Round Dallas, Tex., June 7 (U.R) The 20th annual women's trans Mississippi golf tournament moved into the opening round of match play today with medal ist Polly Riley of Fort Worth, Tex., and runner-up Bev.

"In our first 41 games our pitchers gave up 430 hits and 206 bases on balls. That doesn't count errors, either, which means we have been putting 16 or 17 of the opposition on base in each game. "You just don't win ball games and pennants that way," Mack muttered sadly. EXACT SAME t whiskey as us distillers drink! Y The an v if- -m Se3 a I PRICE REDUCED WMi'jBl fj I $4?10 $195 n&J I I W45QT.
