their own, Rutgers couldn't

ejected him from the game and
Redding won, 17 to 3.
Medford took their series with
Willows, two to one, rounding
out with a 7 to 6 win.
At Eugene, the Larks made
their first sweep of the season
by winning a tussle wtth Marys

Eugene's leading hitter with two
doubles and a single in four
trips. Dick Warner had three
for three.
Klamath Falls won their se
ries with Reno, two games to
one, with the second win last
night, 4 to 2. The Gems got two
runs in the seventh on Andy
