By Hank Green
Take away last night's sixth
inning and add two or three lo
cal hits when men were on base
and the Medford Rogues prob
ably would have come through
with their first victory of this
series over the Redding Browns
instead of losing 7 to 5 at the
fairgrounds.
Al Bolen with two men out
and a runner on second base
threw Mike Bellone's grounder
way over First Baseman Jack
Cooney's head for a two-base
error to start off Redding's
rally.
Error Scores Run
The error scored Catcher Er
nie Choukalos, who had sin
gled, from second base and put
Bellone on second. Bob Thomp
son, the tall, rangey Negro first
baseman of the Browns, then
nasteri a no-balls, no-strikes Ditch
by Jack Lloyd over the Medford
Neon Sign company sign for a
home run for two more Kedding
runs.
Pat Gosney's single, a walk
to "Sandy" Sandburg and Ken
McGre's double tallied the last
two Browns' runs.
Medford picked up a single
run in the first stanza when
Russ Stauart and Cooney drew
walks. Stuart stole second and
then tallied on a wild pitch.
Cooney Starts Rally
Cooney started off the fifth
Inning for the Rogues by lining
a single to center, went to sec
ond when Johnny Popovich dou
bled off the fence in left and
scored as Bob Haddock flied
deep to center. Popovich went
to third after the catch and then
stole home.
Two runs for the Rogues in the
ninth inning started off when
Marc Guglielmo, batting for
Lloyd, 'Irew a walk, as did Stu
art. When Redding's second
baseman let Cooney's routine
grounder go through his legs
for an error, Jones, running for
Gugliclmo, scored.
Stuart in turn crossed the plate
for Medford after Popovich flied
to center. The next three men
went down In order to end the
Rogues' rally.
Adam Fielding Tops
Centerfielder Billy Adam
pulled the fielding goms of the
game for the Rogues. In the
first inning he pulled down

Golfing Open
AtArdmore
Ardmore. Pa.. June 8 (U.R)
A jittery bunch of golfers teed
off in the first round of the na
tional open today, skeptical of
how they might do over the
course chosen for the golden an
niversary of America's biggest
tournament.
Practice rounds still left them
timorous about the 6,694 yard
par 70 layout of the Merion golf
course. They (eared the light
ning fast greens and the tough
rough of the championship east
course.
A total of 165 was entered
with 18 holes scheduled today.
18 tomorrow and the final 36
Saturday.
Most of them from Sammy
Snead favored at 3'4 to one
on down, figured there were
many more trouble holes than
thev wished to olay. But most
differed on which holes might
cause the most trouble.
Ben Hogan, who thinks his
game is "pretty sharp" and who
is second choice to fanead in the
betting at four to one, figured
this might be the greatest three
putt tournament in history
