Medfo: RDetf&TRIBtnfl Studs Pitcher Tosses Up One-Hitter in Washington Bellingham (U.R) Herb Karpel, former Seattle Rainier pitcher, who also pitches for the Medford, Ore., Cheney Studs, was in his old professional form here Friday night as he pitched a one-hit, 19 strikeout perform ance to lead Deming to a 3 to 0 victory over the Fairchild Air Force base nine from Spokane in the Washington State semi pro baseball tournament. Ross Bergman homered for the victors in the ninth inning. Spokane also advanced an other bracket in the state play offs. The eastern Washington nine beat Longview 6 to 3. The winners opened the scor ing with a three-run outburst in the first inning and Longview was never able to catch up. At Sedro Woolley. the Sedro Woolley chiefs won their first round game in the state playoffs by walloping Soap Lake 11 to 0. Neale Reaches Tennis Finals Vancouver, B. C. (U.R) Top-seeded Harry Likas of San Francisco and second-seeded Emery Neale of Portland, Ore., met Saturday in the finals of the men's single matches of the Western Canada" Lawn Tennis championships.

The victors scored five runs in the second inning on four hits and four Soap Lake errors. The same was called at the end of 6Vi innings by mutual agree ment. Stormy Weather Hits Auto Races The best crowd they've had yet was at the Medford Speed way Friday to watch the hard lop races. They had every thing but the cars , to do the racing. The usual large number of Yreka entries didn't cross the mountains because of the stormy weather down south. So there were only five cars on the field Friday for the opening race. The management passed out rain checks to those in attend ance and then proceded to run three races with what cars they had. . . Frank Danley, Sacramento, was top man in the 15-lap main event. He was trailed by Archie Tucker, Fresno., win ner of the opening race, Ber nie Miller, Grants Pass, and Murrell Betsch, Klamath Falls. Car trouble kept Medford's Lou Smith out of the main ev ent. He took fourth in the first race before his car borke down. Of the 1,822 bills vetoed by presidents since George Wash ington, Franklin D. Roosevelt's record accounts for more than one-third of the total with 631, while James Monroe vetoed only one bill. . Giraffes are almost entirely voiceless.

Medford Studs Play Pair Today on Brookings Field The Medford Cheney Studs, fresh from a. whopping 16;9 win over Weed in non-league compe tition, will take on cellar-dwel ling Brookings today in an at tempt to break a Bandon-Med- ford tie for, third place. . The twin-bill will be played on the Brookings field, begin ning at 12:30 p.m. (1:30 daylight time). In the last league competition o'f the Southwest Oregon loop for Medford, they just squeaked by the Coquille nine by 9-8. During-the afternoon they commit ted six errors, but managed to survive despite some big innings by the opposition. Last Wednesday the Studs were trailing 9 to 2 at the start of a lucky seventh inning and then things began to pop. The home platter was crossed 13 times on eight hits, four walks and one Weed error. Weed's Angels Edge Oak Nine by 4 to 3 Los Angeles '(U.R) Willi" (the knuck) Ramsdell uncorked his "butterfly ball" during his first start for the Los Angeles Angels Saturday to edge the Oakland Acorns 4 to 3 in a Pa cific Coast league tilt highlighted by fourihome runs. Ramsdell went the distance to hold the Oaks to four hits, while his mates picked up seven hits off losing pitcher Bill Evans. Bob Usher led the home run parade for the Angels in the fourth frame when he smashed his seventh four-staffer of the season for Los Angeles' first counter. Bob Talbot followed in the sixth inning with his sixth of the year and in the next inning Tookie Gilbert put Oakland in the race with his twenty-first of the year. His round - tripper knotted the score when he drove in Spider ' Jofgensen who had walked. strong northern California team wasn't given much of a chance after that for reliefer Terry Maddox was a perfect fireman with six up and six down via the strikeout method for the next two innings. The Studs now have a won loss record of 11 and seven, 14 percentage points off the second place Coos Bay-North Bend, while Drain holds firmly onto first with 14 won and two lost. The Medford team hopes to pick up two games today in its bid to overtake the second-place coast outfit and assure a better shot at the league leaders. Seals WinTth PCLGamein Row San Francisco (U.R) The giant-killing San Francisco Seals rolled to their seventh victory Saturday, their fifth against Hollywood, as they pasted the Stars for 13 hits and a 9 to 4 win. The Seals pushed two runs across in the first inning on Joe Grace's walk, Frank Kalin's double, and a single bji Bill Mc Cawley, whose bat was to be a thorn in the side of four Holly wood, chuckers all afternoon. It was the Seals' big third inning, in which they scored six runs with 10 men coming to bat, that iced the game. Here's how it happened: Kalin scored on Moran's hump-back line single. Reno Cheso then banged a sizzler at starting pitch er Johnny Lindell which proved too hot to handle, rolling off his glove for an infield hit, and McCawley romped across. Len Ratto drew a walk, Grace singled in Moran, and pitcher Bill Brad ford cleaned the bags with a sharp double to right center. Bradford pitched tight ball, blanking the Stars for five in nings, but weakened in the sixth, when the Stars got to him for two runs and then two more off reliefer Bob Muncrief . Beavers Squeak Way Into 1st Division Spot San Francisco U.R) The Beavers from rickety Vaughn street park gasped at the rari fied air of the Pacific Coast league's first division Saturday. Riding on a hot streak of 17 wins in its last 23 games, a .739 percentage, Portland struggled into fourth place. And Manager Clay Hopper, an experienced dispenser of baseball logic, is aiming his sights at San Diego, a niche higher. Don Eggert doubled with one out in the ninth inning Friday night and Portland got: 1. A 9-8 victory over Seattle. 2. Into the first divison The contest was wild; the teams abused eight pitchers for 32 hits. Joe Brovia, the long-pants slugger, cuffed three safely, as did Portland teammate Frankie Austin. Herm Reich had a homer for the winners; Nanny Fern andez hit one for the losers.
