    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.

Bowl Talks
Olympia, Wash., June 7 (U.R)
The Pacific Coast conference ex
pects to decide next week the
conditions under which it may
renew its Rose Bowl contract
with the midwest's Big 10 con
ference. 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.

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

ers. The Yankees went into the

of the three "dead-loss" hurlers.

Page, against Detroit. But that
leave. only Porterfield, Johnson
and Porky Sanford.

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.

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.

draopped to badly," Connie
added.
"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.
