Conclude Series Today
Medford's Cheney Studs en
V, counter Brookings today in the
second game of two - scuffle
week-end series here. Game
time at the fairgrounds base
' ball park will be the usual 2 p.
m.
The Beavers from the South
western Oregon coast town will
be fighting to shake off the doom
that has been predicted for them
by prognosticated. Currently,
Brookings is in the cellar and
dopesters seem to think it will
remain there. The coast crew
went into the week-end series
without a win in four Sawdust
lague games, .
- However, the Beavers have
some pretty good talent on their
squad and, if they catch fire, will
make an interesting afternoon
of it for the Studs.
New Players
On the club are Jerry Mason,
University of Southern Californ
ia standout; Bill Wallace, infield
er and -pitcher, Gold Beach youth
rated a pro prospect; Bob Astin,
ex-Roosevelt high pitcher, who
was with the Medford Rogues
early last season; Don Jacob
son and Phil Parsons, Grants
Pass youths who are Southern
Oregon college students, and
Bill Darnell, veteran semi-pro
from White Salmon, Wash.

Jersey Joe Not
Satisfied With
Title Mix Share
Mount Ephraim, N. J. OJ.R)
Jersey Joe Walcott, 100 per
cent dissatisfied with his 30 per
cent share from the Ezzard
Charles' fight, threatened Sat
urday to break his contract with
the International Boxing Club
unless it comes across with 45
per cent for a September title
defense. .
Unhappy because he received
only $103,123 for successfully
defending his world heavy
weight championship against
Charles at Philadelphia, Thurs
day night, Walcott bluntly de
clared that he would "get a
square deal from ,the ,IBC, or
else ..."
September Defense
He was referring to a propos
ed September title defense
against either Harry Kid Matth
ews or Rocky Marciano that pro
moter Jim Norris has in mind.
For his 15-round decision ov
er Charles, Walcott received on
ly slightly more than the $92,473
that went to the 30-year-old Ezzard.

English Win Curtis Cup
As DeMoss Drops Finale
Muirf ield, Scotland (U.R)
Britain's golfing girls nipped a
dangerous American comeback
surge in the final match Satur
day to win the Curtis cup for the
first time in history, five match
es to four.
The British took a 2 to 1 lead
on the first day of play Friday.
To gain their triumph they had
to wait out the final match be
tween Grace DeMoss of Corval
lis, Ore., and Elizabeth Price of
England after' the Yanks had
tied the series at four matches
all.
Although the 28-year-old Miss
Price was sick all night and not
sure she should play, she poured
it on in the last seven holes to
win, 3 and 2, and make history
in the process. Since the Curtis
cup series officially began in
1932, the Americans had won
five of the, six matches while
the other was a tie.
Dot Kirby of Atlanta, Ga., the
U. S. Amateur champion, and
Claire Doran of Cleveland, made
gallant come - from - behind bids
for an American victory, and
they won their matches. Miss
Kirby ws three down after 27,
but rallied and took the last
two holes to beat Scottish
champ Jean Donald, 1 up. Miss
Doran was two down after nine
and again after 18, but went one
up by 27 and beat Irish champ
ion Philomena Garvey, 3 and 2.
Polly Riley of Fort Worth,
Tex., was the only American to
have an easy time. She leaped
to a four up lead on the first
nine holes and went on to
trounce Moira Paterson, a Glas
gow school teacher, 6 and 4.
Hank Sauer
Senior Loop
Top Hitter
New York (U.R) Hank
Sauer, the Chicago Cub outfield
er who never has hit above .275
in four major league seasons, was
leading the National League bat
ting race Saturday with a .341
average.
The 6 foot, 3V4 inch Sauer
one of the big reasons the Cubs
are in the first division added
21 points to his average during
the past week to advance from
eighth place and replace Del En
nis of the Phillies In the top spot
To complete the rapid switch,
Ennis lost 47 points and fell to
13th with a .296 mark.
Sauer, who has hit 30 or more
homers in each of his seasons
with Cincinnati and Chicago, al
so led the National in that de
partment with 12 and topped the
majors in runs batted in with
48, in oficial statistics which
included Thursday's day games.
Dom Heads American
Dom DiMaggio of the Red Sox
and Al Rosen of the Indians still
ranked 1-2 in the American
League batting race, but the
little Boston center f i e 1 de r
widened his margin over the
Cleveland third baseman during
the past week. DiMaggio lifted
his average a point to .352, while
Rosen skidded from .348 to .333.
Two Yankees held the third
and fourth" spots in the American
with Gene Woodling batting .320
and ro'okie Mickie Mantle hit
ting at .318. Dale Mitchell of
Cleveland was fifth with .311 but
Billy Goodman of the Red Sox
was close behind with .310.
Whitey Lockman of the Gi
ants, with a .335 mark, was
closest to Sauer in the older
league. Then came Joe Adcock
of the Reds with .333, Jackie
Robinson of the Dodgers with
.323 and Bobby Adams of the
Reds with .321.
Bobby Thomson of the Giants
was runner-up to Sauer in runs
batted in with 40. Rosen led that
department in the American
League with 32 and also was run-er-up
to the Cub outfielder in
homers with 10.
In the pitching department,
the week brought Sal Maglie's
first defeat. His Monday loss to
the Cardinals left the Giant right
hander with a 9-1 record
matched by Bob Shantz of the
A's In the American League.
Each had pitched In just 10
games.
Gerry Staley of the Cardinals
had a 9-3 record and Bob Rush of
the Cubs ranked next in total
victories with eight triumphs
against two losses.

Somebody's Going to be Surprised
Well, it's Junetime and the top is down and his
heart is filled with memories . , . and where do you
think he's going?
He's going halfway up the hill, to a spot where a '
lane strays into the wildwood and he can glimpse the
top of a fieldstone chimney above the trees. That's
his lane and he's going hornet
It has been a well-guarded secret. Just two people
' have known about it all these months himself and
his Cadillac dealer.
To make doubly sure, he has hinted at everything
under the sun as a fitting tribute to this wedding
anniversary except a Cadillac!
Well, it won't be long now. He's getting closer and
closer. And now the stones in the driveway crunch
under the wheels ... he gives the familiar three "toots"
on the horn . . . and then she sees him, with his cap
in his hand, bowing and pointing to the driver's seat.
