Single runs crossed in the fourth and sixth innings. Of the Medfordites in the line up at the time, only Ted Landers failed to score in the second Inning splurge. He was forced out at third base. Singles by Terry Sherwood, Max Lindley, Curt Holzgang and Ned Landers, a triple by Derald Wooton, a dou ble by John Niles, three walks, a fielder's choice, a flyout and a pair of double steals figured in the scoring. Civet Six Hum Carroll gave up four of the hits and two of the walks in the frame and was responsible for six of the runs. He was relieved by Freddy Friedel who was reached for two hits and issued one walk. Terry Maddox doubled for Medford in the fourth inning ) and crossed home on a pair of ' errors. In the sixth Maddox drew a walk, stole second base then third and scored on a wild pitch. Derald Wooton, pitching for Medford, fanned 15 batters, gave up three hits, walked two men and chucked shutout ball for six innings. He was denied a shut out for the full game when George Hanson tripled in the seventh inning and romped home on Kenny Young 9 ground ball to third base. The hits Wooten gave up were all for extra bases. In addition to the triple, Hannon and Ron Owings got doubles. Hannon's came when the ball dropped among three Medfordites in short center field and Owing's wallop got extra distance by taking a bad hop in left field. Ted Landers was the only Med- fordite with more than one hit. He got two in two trips to the plate. Medford will face Crater high SPECIAL OFFER 5 DAYS ONLY!

Klamath Falls, which won the 1951 Class A title by nosing out Medford, 58 13 to 58. will again be on hand, but Coach Paul Dol lar's crew will face a tough field in attempting to repeat its victory of last season. Coach Bob Newland's Med ford squad, winner of seven ti tles and three seconds in 10 ap pearances In the relays, will again be a serious thrat. The Portland entrants, Eugene, Sa lem and several others will also make strong bids. Ashland and Cottage Grove, which have been trading the Class B title for the last four years, must again be considered as serious threats. Ashland won the 1951 championship with Cot tage Grove second and Univer sity third. In the Class C battle Pleasant Hill scored its second win in five tries last year by defeating Creswell and will be on hand to defend its championship. The Class A program will con sist of 12 events, the B teams will enter 10 and the Class C squads have 6 events on their slate. Many of the top individual performers in 1951 are now com peting for collegiate squads, but a new crop of top flight perform ers will be on hand to threaten their predecessors' records. Among thosa who have moved on are Wayne Reiser, Walt Badorke and Ken Hickenbot tom, who wil compete for Ore gon against Washington State.
