TWELVE MEDrOHD (OREGOH) MAIL TRIBTJITE
Med ford Nine Beats Yreka 2-1;
Crater High Plays Here Friday
Aiming for its fourth consecu
tive victory, the Medford high
school baseball nine takes on
Crater high on Friday. Game
time at the senior high diamond
here is 3:15 p.m.
Lloyd Hart is scheduled to
pitch for Medford.
The Black Tornado made it
three straight wins against no
losses so far this season by de
feating Yreka, Calif., 2 to 1 here
yesterday.
Locals Held Down
Medford, handcuffed for 3 23
innings, broke out in the fourth
and fifth frames for single runs.
Tornado batters went down in
order before Yreka pitcher Bud
Russell in the first and second
innings. In the third stanza,
Terry Sherwood got a single but
the next three stickmen were re
tired. There were two out in the
fourth before Medford got a man
on base.
Pitching by Medford's Derald
Wooton was also tight. Although
he walked four, he allowed only
one hit and struck out 11 batters.
The lone hit Wooton gave up
and one of the walks figured
in Yreka's only score. Pete Creb
bin was walked in the second in
ning. Barry followed with a sin
gle, advancing Crebbin, who
then stole thud. The next two
batters fanned bu Fasoletti fol
lowed with a rap that was mis
handled by Curt Holzgang at
second base and Crebbin tallied
Maddox Steals Home
Terry Maddox tripled for Med
ford in the fourth then stole
home for a run that tied up the
game.
In the fifth Sherwood singled
and got to third base on Catcher
C. Russell's bad throw attempt
ing to stop the Medford runner
at second. John Niles grounded
out. Sherwood crossed with the
winning run on Holzgang's sacri
fice bunt.
The two hits by Sherwood and
one by Maddox, all off Bud Rus
sell, were the only bingles Med
ford collected. Russell struck out
2 and walked 2.

Errors Hurt Portlanders
As Seals Post
San Francisco (U.R) A white
whiskered problem bothered the
Pacific Coast League Thursday,
with solid arguments to support
both sides:
Are the pitchers ahead of the
batters this early in the season?
Evidence supporting this time
worn theory was introduced at
San Diego Wednesday night
when the visiting Oakland Oaks
downed the Padres, 1-0.
Winning pitcher Lloyd Hittle
southpawed a neat five-hitter.
And loser Jack Salveson, trying
this season to achieve his 200th
PCL pitching victory, allowed
seven.
Double Wins
At San Francisco, where the
Seals won from Portland 5-4 on
pinch-hitting Will Hafey's ninth-
Giants Lose
Monte. Irvin
Denver, Colo. (U.R) A de
pressed Leo Durocher, fearing
that slugger Monte Irvin will
miss the entire season ' because
of his broken ankle, moaned
Thursday he has lost his "big
guy" and doesn't know how to
replace him.
"Irvin was the big guy, the
guy that got us the runs," said
Durocher in a numbed voice.
"How can you replace him at a
moment's notice?"
Led League
The answer, of course, is that
you can't quickly replace a star
outfielder who led the National
League in runs batted in last
year with 121 and swung a smok
ing hat in the "miracle" finish
drive that gave the Giants the
pennant.
But, with the word from the
hospital Thursday that Irvin
broke the fibula bone in his
right ankle in an unnecessary
slide into third base in Wednes
day's exhibition game against
the Indians, Durocher knows he
probably will have to do with
out Irvin for the rest of the year.
Helser To Join
Beavers April 15
Portland (U.R) Roy Helser,
who doubles as co-basketball and
baseball coach at Linfield col
lege during the school year and
pitches for the Portland Beavers
during the summer, said Thurs
day he will join the club April
15 when the Beavers make their
first home appearance.
This will be Helser's 11th sea
son with the Beavers. He started
with the club in 1942. His big
gest years were 1944, 1945 and
1946. when he was a 20-game
winner.
He won't join the Beavers on
a full-time basis until school is
out in June. Meanwhile, he'll be
available for home games only.
Gene Smith Desires
Scuffle With Saddler
Washington (U.R) Chunky
Gene Smith of Washington, with
a string of 30 straight victories,
seeks a crack at world feather
weight champion Sandy Sad
dler's title this summer.
Smith made Glen Flanagan
of St. Paul, Minn., his latest
victim Wednesday night when
he was awarded a majority de
cision in a nationally televised
10-round fight at Uline arena.
Smith weighed 128 pounds,
Flanagan 129.

5-4 Victory
inning double, the victors
amassed only six safeties. The
night previous, the Seals won on
five hits while their pitcher.
Bui Reeder, was doling out just
one.
These reports of weak hitting
offer impressive support to the
strong-pitching argument. But
there is contradictory evidence
in other scores.
Hollywood nipped Seattle, 7-6,
though the Rainiers nudged out
14 bingles. And Los Angeles,
paced by Tod Davis' f ive-for-f ive,
slugged Sacramento, 8-6, with a
15-hit attack. The Solons, though
losers, had 11 base knocks.
Furthermore, only two mounds
men managed -'to go the route.
Hittle stayed strong over the
nine-frame distance. And Port
land's loser, Marino Pieretti,
went all the way.
Four Chances Flubbed
Pieretti, the thick-necked Ital
ian from San Francisco's North
Beach, was the victim of horrid
fielding support. His mates
flubbed four chances, nullifying
any chance he had for victory.
Only one of the Seals tallies was
earned.
Portland outfielder Clint Con
atser, with three hits, put the
Bevos back in the ball game with
a two-run homer that tied the
score in the eighth. But then
came muscular Hafey, a re
formed pitcher, and the Seals
had won their second in a row.

Masters Tourney
Opens at Augusta
Augusta, Ga. (U.R) Sammy
Snead. Ben Hogan and Lloyd
Mangrum, veterans of many a
pressure-packed fairway battle,
were in the favorites roles
Thursday as the largest field in
history teed off in the opening
round of the coveted Masters
golf tournament
Many a Johnny-come-lately to
the ranks of golfing's elite had
been highly touted as the rec
ord field of 72 assembled here
during the past few days.
Allegiance Switched
But when it came time to tee
off in the tournament that the
great Bobby Jones founded and
designed the tourney that is
a greater prize than any except
the PGA and the U. S. open
the fans switched their alle
giance from the comparative
rookies like hot-shot Jack
Burke of Houston, Tex., back
to old, familiar stars.
Snead, Hogan and Mangrum
forced the switch by proving in
the tension of Wednesday's fi
nal practice round over the par
72 layout that they are ready
to play their very best golf.

Gang Meets
Grants Pass
Track and field competitors
of Medford high will get another
indication of their strength in
the district on Saturday when
they oppose Grants Pass on the
Cavemen's oval. The third an
nual Grants Pass Rotary meet
is set for 2:30 p. m.
"This week-end will be the
test," according to Medford
Coach Bob Newland. "We look
for an interesting afternoon,"
he added.
Grants Pass loomed a power
last week-end when it scored a
lopsided triumph in a four-way
tangle with Crater, Ashland and
Illinois Valley. The Cavemen,
who have a host of performers
back from last year, now appear
the biggest threat to Medford
cind?rpath supremacy.
Full Distance Saturday
Medford romped over Klam
ath Falls, its usual toughest ri
val, by an overwhelming mar
gin last week.
Not too good a comparison
between the Medford teams,
however, can be made from last
week's foot race -times. Grants
Pass was competing in a short
distance meet while in the Medford-rUamath
struggle only the
hurdles and one middle dis
tance event were shortened.
The meet this Saturday will
be full "distance except for the
hurdles. It will be Grants Pass'
first full distance test.
About 38 Medford youths
will make the Grants Pass
jaunt.
B Coaches
Will Meet
George Bray, Talent, president
of the county B school coaches
association has called a meeting
of that organization for 11 a.m.
Saturday at the county school
superintendent's office in the
courthouse here.
He said a matter concerning
baseball officials will be dis
cussed. The B baseball league slate is
to open Friday with Talent at
Rogue River and Phoenix at
Jacksonville. Prospect's fray
with St. Mary's here may be
postponed because of work being
done at the fairgrounds ball
park.
Player Hurt
The six-man football and the
basketball schedules for next
year will be drawn up at the
meeting. Bray said.
A practice fray between St.
Mary's and Phoenix was halted
in the last of the fourth inning
when Melvin Amaro, St. Mary's
catcher, was hit in the head with
a bat. The wound required three
stitches.
St Mary's was leading at the
time 7 to 6.
Honsberger Wins
Washington Toga
Olympia (U.R) Ray Hons-
berger, the veteran Clarkston
linksman. ruled Thursday as
king of Washington state golfers
after he defeated Bill Christie of
Seattle one up Wednesday to
win his second consecutive state
professional golfers' tourney
championship. Honsberger beat
Christie after 36 holes of play
at the Olympia Country and Golf
Club course. At the end of the
first 18 holes, Christie was five
up on the defending titlisv. But
Honsberger came back with sub-
par golf in the afternoon to win.
Baseball Kills
Oklahoma Youth
Comanche, Okla. (U.R) A
baseball hurled by a teammate,
struck 16-year-old Gary Eldon
Moore on the chest, just above
his heart, and he fell to the
ground dead.
Moore was a member of the
Comanche high school baseball
team which was holding a warm-
up practice session when the
accident happened Wednesday,
Police Chief Lee Williams said.
