single scuffle here Saturday.

while the Vikings were victors
In District No. 6 A-2.
Originally, a two-out-of-three
fracas inter-district play-off was
scheduled. However, after the
Saturday mix Myrtle Creek vol
unteered . to waive its right to
additional action. The proposal
was readily accepted by Coach
Alex McDonald for Medford.
Derald Wooton, throwing for
Medford, turned back the Vik
ings with a single hit, a double
by Wilder. He hit two batters
but whiffed 12. Dennis Conner
and Terry Maddox helped Med
ford along with homers.
Medford was held scoreless
until the third frame when Den
nis Conner, Max Lindley and
Ned Landers got hits and a pass
ed ball and stolen base helped
out. In the fourth Medford got
three more on Maddox' round
tripper, two walks, an error,

Thanks Mr. Primary Candidate,
whether you won or lost your elec
tion position. You did a nice job of
Informing we the voter that there
still is FREE COMPETITION In the
selection of our particular Individ
ual to represent us in his choosen
category. It took a lot of your time,
your evenings, your thoughts . .
and a sense of pride to toss aside
humiliation of defeat, to bring us
a good choice of candidate Ideals.
Maybe the best man DIDN'T
win, but you did start the County
to thinking about "Mr. Big" (The
U.S. Government) and our selec
tion was more sincere this year per
haps than for the last 20 years. I
feel we are tired of "Mr. Big" in
the manner he has been tossing our

The Tornado surged for five
runs in the fifth canto on Con
ner's homer, singles by Ted
Landers, Derald Wooton, Mad
dox and Sherwood, two errors,
a wild pitch, a stolen base and
a balk. A final run came in the
sixth on hits by Connor and
Derald Wooton, a walk and a
fielder's choice.

Myrtle Creek got the District
No. 6 A-2 title and JDJ league
championship Friday by defeat
ing Crater to 4 to 0 at Myrtle
Creek.
The Vikings gained command
in the first Inning with three
runs on two walks, a hit and an
error. A walk and a double pro
duced the other Myrtle Creek
score.
Phillips, winning hurler for
the Vikings, was tagged for only
three hits, but walked seven and
hit two batters. Crater suffered
from lack of punch when it got
men on bases. The Comets had
a total of 12 left on bases, in
cluding three in each the first
and second innings.
Crater concluded its season
with eight wins and five losses,
including two losses to Med

Opening week-end for the
Medford Cheney Studs in the
Southwestern Oregon league
baseball campaign was to wind
up today as the Studs scrap with
the potent Drain Black Sox at
the fairgrounds ball diamond at
2 p.m.
Roy Helser, who tossed 122
victories in his career just con
cluded with the Portland Beav
ers of the Coast loop, was sched
uled to pitch for the Sox today
if he did not go to the hill last
night.
Helser pilots
Helser took over the manager
ial reins of the Black Sox this
week and rounds out a powerful
line-up for the Drain entry in the
circuit. The roster of the new
loop member includes Infielder
Harvey Storey, just released by
the San Diego Padres, and sev
eral others who have made their
mark in pro ball or are on the
way up. Stud Manager Hoosier
Hoffard has recognized the
toughness of the Drain crew but
the Studs boast a rather strong
crew themselves. This week's
play will provide a good indica
tion on how the Medford aggre
gation stacks up in the circuit.
The Chenev gang was to use
Clarence Mellbye, an ex-Pioneer
leaguer on the pitcher's hill to
day, if Paul Gehrman, an ex
major leaguer, threw in last
night's affair. With Frank Roe-
landt catching the Studs were
assured of an ex-pro battery.
Other former pro players in
the Medford line up are Alex
McDonald and Clyde (Moose)
Blevins. Semi-pro vets Marvin
Cartwright, Norm Lucich and
Snuffy Smith and Bill Selser
from Humboldt State college add
strength to the local team.
Other action in the circuit to
day will be Coqullle at Roseburg
and Coos Bay-North Bend at
Bandon. The clubs also played
last night. Brookings drew a bye.
Joe Chez Beaten
By SC Trojans
Los Angeles (U.R) The South
ern California Trojans pushed
across five runs in the first in
ning and added another in the
sixth to edge Stanford 6 to S Sat
urday and win their sixth CIBA
championship in seven years.
The Trojans were outhit for
the second consecutive day, with
Stanford getting 10 to their five,
but they managed to space them
to do the most damage.
SC opened the game with five
tallies on four walks and three
hits in the first off Stanford
ace moundsman Joe Chez. Chez
settled down after the wild spurt,
however, and allowed only two
more hits during the game.
