Saturday winners included Blue Man Now Belmont Favorite Baltimore, Md. (U.R) Blue Man, the turf's latest bargain basement beauty, is touted as the favorite for the Belmont Stakes and a likely candidate for three-year-old honors. The dandy dark bay colt, who once raced under a $10,000 claiming lag, earned his high rating with a thrilling come-from-bchind victory in Satur days' Preakness at Pimlico. With Calumet Form's Ken tucky Derby winner, Hill Gail, now sidelined with a leg Injury, Blue Man should wind up as the prohibitive choice for the Belmont at New York June 7, and may even wind up with the division championship if the Calumet colt remains incapaci tated during the summer season. Islands in Yellowstone lake, Yellowstone National park, are favorite nesting sites of the white pelican. Enos Handy, Roscburg, In Class B of the Rogue Valley hundred. H. E.

IetM l.H.1. I) ITS Drain Bounces Studs 7-4 in Sunday Tussle For Sweep in Series Drain, Bandon and Roscburg i swept their opening scries Satur-1 day and Sunday In the South western Oregon Baseball league. The power- packed Drain Black Sox made it two in a row over the Medford Cheney Studs by winning 7 to 4 here Sunday after copping the Saturday night go 8 to 3. Roseburg downed Coquille 7 to 1 Saturday and 12 to 0 Sun day. Dave Mann whiffed 15 Co quille batters Saturday and Mi ckey Coen threw a one-hitter for the Umpqua Chiefs Sunday. Bandon defeated Coos Bay- North Bend 10 to 4 on Saturday and 5 to 3 on Sunday. Youthful Jerry Cade allowed only five hits Sunday as the Black Sox bounced the Studs. Four of those hits, however, were in a shaky first inning when the Cheney crew picked up two runs. Cade gave up the other bingle in the fifth. He walked two in the same' canto and the Studs combined the hit and walks with a fielder's choice for their other two runs. The Sox got to Paul Gehr- man, Medford hurler, for nine hits and these were combined with Stud misplays for the Drain scoring. Drain took the lead in the first inning with three runs on a double by Harvey Storey, hits by Ad Rutschmann and Bill Beard, a flyout and two errors. The Sox got a couple more runs in the second on an error, sacri fice by Cade, base on bals, pass ed ball and single by Ted Wilson. The final two Drain runs crossed in the seventh stanza when Gehrman gave up bingles to Rutschmann, Wilson and Don Kimball. Clarence Mellbye, Medford first sacker, came up with the fielding gem of the afternoon with a sensational stop of a scorching grounder by Wilson and a race to the bag for an un assisted put out. The Studs play Roseburg here next Saturday and Sunday while Coquille goes to Drain and Ban don to Brookings. HUX SCORE: Drain AB R H PO A F.
