Cheney Studs Skirmish Roseburg
At Medford on Saturday, Sunday
The Medford Cheney Studs,
who want badly to gain the win
column in Southwestern Oregon
league baseball standings this
week-end, today announced the
acquisition of reenforcements
from the Seattle area.
The three new players, who
are expected to join the Studs
for their games with the Rose
burg Umpqua Chiefs at the fair
grounds here Saturday night and
Sunday afternoon, are Herb
Karpel, John Penso and Pete
Bianch.
Karpel is a veteran coast
leaguer who played for Seattle.
He possibly will be on the
mound for Cheney on Saturday
night against the strong Chiefs
crew.
Infieldert
Penso and Bianchl are both
infielders. Penso has ben a part
time coach of the Seattle Rain
iers and Bianchi is a veteran of
semi-pro ball in the Seattle area.
Medford will take on a re
juvenated Roseburg club which
will be after its fourth and fifth
wins against no setbacks. The
Chiefs are piloted this season by
a veteran semi-pro manager.
Earl Sargent. He has lined up i
team with considerable powei
at the plate and good defense in
the field.
Chief pitchers are Dave Mann
Mickey Coen and Buzz Sporer
Mann, who won coastwide re
cognition as a Oregon State col
lege grid back last fall, has been
ineligible for baseball at the
school. Coen is a Roseburg high
product. Sporer, a Western In
ternational league veteran, is
the relief ace.
Ex-Dodger
Roseburg may have John Far
rell, Portlander, at first base;
Barney Koch, former Brooklyn
Dodger, at second; John Keller,
Portlander, at shortstop, and
George Sanders at third. Al
Simpson is catcher - and Hal
Zurcher, Baker and Coreris,
outfielders.
The Chiefs showed signs of
being a hot contender In the
fast Sawdust loop when they
swept two games in their open
ing series with Coquille last
week-end. They collected 27 hits
while pitchers Mann and Coen
gave up just six hits among
them.
Medford, southpawed into
submission last week, has hope
of doing better in the hitting de
partment this time since the
Chief mound staff lacks a left-hander.
If Karpel takes to the
mound Saturday, Manager Hoos
ier Hoffard's choice for starting
hurler Sunday will lie between
Paul Gehrman and Clarence
Mellbye.
League Split
The Sawdust loop was split
down the middle after the open
ing series last week. In addition
to the sweeps by Drain over
Medford and Roseburg over
Coquille, Bandon nabbed two
games from Coos Bay-North
Bend. Bandon pulled the big
surprise ,with Its victory over
