SIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) Globetrotters Down Cheney Studs 11 to 8 The Harlem Globetrotters. most colorful barnstorming base ball aggregation to appear in Medford this season, built up a good lead early in the game, admittedly eased up and then bad to tighten their control in subduing the undermanned Che ney Studs 11. to 8 at the fair grounds last night. With their amusing and ma gician-like shadow-ball game and the antics of cut-up Sam wheeler, the Globetrotters outdid the House of David and Havana Cu bans, who previously visited, in he showmanship department. They gave the biggest crowd of the season, at the fairgrounds en tertainment to make up for the fact that the home team was out classed. Maddox Ha Hard Medford Chucker Terry Mad dox, who shone on the mound here recently against Weed, did not fare so well against the hard slugging Negro nine. The Trot ters hit Maddox hard in the early frames and collected 13 hits for the evening off the ex-Medford high tosser. ,Maddox was pounded hardest by the travelers in the first in ning when they tagged him for five hits, including triples, by Slugger Slade and Willie Ivory. The Harlemites gathered six runs during the canto. Two errors by teammates did hurt the local pitcher's cause but he also hit a batter, was charged with a balk and was tapped for a sacri fice in the inning. The Trotters were in command from the start but the Studs made a good bid to catch them in their first frame batting turn Singles by Moose Blevins and Chuck Jandreau, a rousing triple by Frank Roelandt and a ground out ' by Don Fawcett produced three runs and temporarily bol stered the hopes of Stud sup porters. Margin Stretched . . In the second chukker, how ever, the Trotters picked up two more runs on a walk to J. A. Redd, a triple by Wheeler and single by Slade. They made the margin 10 to 3 with a pair of runs in the fourth on a single by Ducky Davenport, a double by Wheeler and Slade's second three-bagger of the evening. Medford got a run in the fourth on awalk to George Sanders, a passed ball and an error. The Studs made it 10 to 5 in the sixth' When Roelandt doubled and Fawcett singled in the run. In the eighth the Globetrotters made it 11 to 5 with a tally on a walk to Wheeler, an error and a double by Slade,. who lived up to his Slugger moniker with four raps in five times up. Three Medford Runs It was in the eighth inning that the travelers had to tighten control. Snuffy Smith singled, Fawcett doubled and Sanders walked to load the bases. Terry Maddox popped out but Hoosier Hoffard, who played the whole game in right field, slugged a one base knock. He drove in Smith and Fawcett scored on an error. George Gitzen walked. At that point Jones came into relieve Trotter Thrower Rollie Stewart. Blevins clubbed a -rounder forcing Gitzen at sec ond but Sanders scored the third run of the inning and the count was 11 to 8. Jandreau popped out to retire the side. The Studs got the bags loaded again in the ninth with one out but Maddox fanned and Hoffard hit into a force play .that ended the rontest.

West of Talent On Anderson Creek MAIL TRIBUNE game with four of its regulars absent and Jandreau of Ashland and Sanders of Crescent City filled infield vacancies and Hof fard an outfield post. Hoffard drew a hand from the crowd for a double in addition'to his single. Roelandt Slugger Roelandt was Medford's heavy hitter with a double, triple and single in five tries. Gitzen swat ted two for three. The Trotters with Davenport hitting, Wheeler catching, Doug- la s at first, White at second, Daniels at third and Cunningham at shortstop went through a series of hilarious gyrations and contortions with the shadow ball infield practice routine. It was hard to tell where the "ball" would be next, In the eighth inning, Wheeler got to first base on a walk. He antagonized Maddox into a pick off throw and the ball got by Baseman Gitzen. Wheeler went all the way to score but was or dered back to second base. He took his time, slinking back by way of third, disgustedly. Wheel- scored on Slade's double then went out to third and ran in to "tally" again.

(U.PJ The American league's Umpire Bill McGowan was on the league sus pension list Friday after a hassle' with a local sportswriter. League President Will Har ridge announced in Chicago Thursday ".. that McGowan was "suspended indefinitely" after Harridge learned that the writ er's paper had demanded an apology from McGowan and threatened to stop its American league coverage until one was forthcoming. Harridge also sent telegrams carrying his apologies "to all writers who witnessed the af fair" between McGowan and Ellis Veech, a sports writer for the East St. Louis, HI., Journal during the Tigers-Browns base ball game here Wednesday night. Three Strikes The trouble started in the seventh inning when the Tigers' Cliff Mapes started for first base on what he thought was a walk and it developed into three strikes'. McGowan called him back and ruled him out. A riding chorus against Mc Gowan started up in the Detroit dugout and he walked over and ordered one of the Tigers to the showers. Veech telephoned the field to find out who was ousted. According to witnesses, Mc Gowan refused to identify the ousted player and an argument started between him and Veech. Finally a bat boy told Veech and the other writers the Mc Gowan ban was against Billy Hoeft. Valley Loop Tiffs Billed One Rogue Valley Baseball league joust will be completed at Grants Pass tonight and two full games will be played on Sunday.

A riot broke up the - game on July 21. - - Glendale will have an 8 to 3 lead when the game is resumed. This will present a big task for Cave Junction.

Slates Ended On Sunday Butte Falls will play at Glendale and Grants Pass at Ashland. Central Point and Prospect have completed regular slates by Prospect's for feit to the Millers. To complete the round-robin schedule two. make-up hassles must be battled, Grants Pass against Butte Falls and Glen dale against Ashland. .Grants Pass with a nine and one record has a chance to tie or nose out Cave Junction for "the regular season first place.

Charles beat Layne in the 11th round of their only pre vious fight last October and the former champ said he thought he could do it again Friday night "only quicker." Prejudiced Westerners were quick to point out, however, Layne's advantages in youth, by nine years; in weight an 11 pound budge; plus additional de fensive knowledge which he noticeably has lacked in previ ous fights. Sales Over $100,000 The fight, to be staged in Og- den's rodeo arena, was expected to draw nearly 30,000 fans from all parts of the western states Promoter Ken Mayne wouldn't guess at the final gate but ad mitted sales had passed the $100,000 mark. The fight means a lot to Layne and Charles. The former champ and his manager Jake Mintz think Charles was rob bed of the title during the last Walcott fight. Regardless of that opinion, however, Mintz admits Charles' future is dependent on the Layne bout. Layne, who needs a win badly to bolster his .sagging career, was expecte'd to scale 198 pounds to Charles' 187. Heavyweight Encounter Negotiations Resumed New York (U.R) Promoter Jim Norris resumed negotiations Friday with the managers of Jersey Joe Walcott and Rocky Marciano regarding their pro posed heavyweight ytle fight next month. "We've got to come to terms regarding the fighters' percent ages before we can select a site," Norris said. . - He admitted, however, that the range of sites had been nar rowed to three cities: Philadel phia, Jersey City and Boston. He said the fight could not be held in New York because Felix Boc- chicchio, manager of Champion Walcott, had no manager's li cense in New York state and would not apply for one. SOUZA NAMED Klamath Falls (U.R) James Souza, a 1952 graduate of the University of Portland, is the new athletic coach at Sacred Heart academy here.
