Fanfare By DICK JEWETT Mall Tribune faartt Mite Pat Simmons, ex-Eagle Point high athlete who this season made the jump from Class C to Class A professional baseball, is proving his versatility. Simmons is the handy man of the Spokane Indians of the Western Interna tional league. So far he's played all the infield positions and in the outfield for the Indians. The youth, once and briefly a resident of Medford, opened the 19S2 campaign at shortstop. Box scores in the Spokane Daily Chronicle of June 2 show Sim mons starting at right field and winding up at first base in pne game and playing at third base in another. In an accompanying story Simmons was reported ap parently taking the third base job away from Sam Kanelos. It was said also that he had been doing some catching in practice and probably could see service if Bill Sheets gets hurt. The box scores were of two games with Yakima. Simmons hit three for six in the two games and singled in the win ning run in one tussle. In the Yakima Ilne-up were Shortstop Chuck Malmberg and Catcher Mike Donahue, who played with the Medford Rogues last year. Simmons played parts of the 1S50 and 1951 seasons with the Bisbee, Ariz., team.- SWO TEAMS HELP Southweilarn Oregon Base ball league teams did their pari Friday night toward res toration of the Coquille Com munity building, which was destroyed by fire a week ago. All proceeds from a Coquille exhibition scuffle with Coos Bay-North Bend went toward the rebuilding fund. The um pire!, Sea Scouts as ball slug gers and Coquille firemen as gate tenders donated their services. The power company even donated the lighting. 193 'Silent Fish Wardens' BASEBALL Installed ih Rogue Basin Portland Installation of 510 fish screens are being installed Angels Whip Padres, 8-1 San Diego, Calif.

SHOULD FILL BYE DATES The Roseburg Umpqua Chiefs, drawing a - bye this week-end In the Sawdust loop, entertain the SUverton Red Sox, one of the top laml-pro teams In Oregon, for two games. We'd like to see such ' opposition brought in here by the Cheney Sludi on their bye dates In the league. The financial guarantee re quired by a visiting team seems to be the principal ob stacle. There would have to be a good turnout at the ball park to meet such an expense. A good argument for such a series Is: "If Roseburg can do it. why can't Medford?" The Studs have no league games on June 22 and August . 10. . Earl H. Barnhart, ex-Medford high and Southern Oregon col lege footballer, will be seventh grade teacher at Prospect next year. He taught this year at Pleasant Hill. .

In the Milton-Freewater area, Fishery Agent Homer Campbell is conducting a survey of diver sions along the Walla Walla riv er to determine the necessity for a screening program. An electric fish shocker is being employed to stun fish in the irrigation canals so that fish losses may be readily determined.
