Jess Floras
'Very Good';
Stops Padres
San Francisco (U.R) Jess
Flores, a tall fastballer from the
land of the frijole, has a reputa
tion in the Pacific Coast league
for being very good or very oth
erwise. Thursday night, tortured
by his record of 17 losses, the 36-year-old
tortilla lover, pitched
like a star. .
Sacramento's unpre dictable
veteran stopped San Diego with
a two-hit shutout as. the la:t-
place Solons won their third in a
row from the Pads, 4-0.
Flores fanned seven and walk
ed none as he picked up his
eighth seasonal success. Solon
manager Joe Gordon had his
14th homer, one of 11 hits off
Padre pitcher Jack Salveson
The game consumed only an
hour and 33 minutes.
Just Opposite
The contest at Oakland, where
in the Acorns kept their league
leadership, was ridiculously op
posite, so far as time was con
cerned. It took Oakland 2 hours
and 53 minutes to dispose of
Los Angeles, 9-7.
The pitching of George Bam
berger, who won his ninth
though relieved in the final pan
el, explained the delay. Normal
ly a slow worker, Bamberger
walked nine.
Second-place Hollywood stay
ed a half-game off the Oaks pace
by downing San Francisco 3-0 on
righthander Mel Queen's spiffy
three-hitter. And at Seattle, the
defending champions won two
games from Portland, 5-2 and
4.-2. '

Cheney Studs To Scrap
Bandon Nine Saturday,
Sunday at Fairgrounds
The Medford Cheney Studs,
unbeaten in their last six South
western Oregon league baseball
struggles, will be out to extend
their victory string in the cir
cuit this week-end but they will
have to overcome some rugged
opposition if they do.
That opposition is the Bandon
Millers, whom the . Studs en
counter at 8 p.m. Saturday and
at 2 p.m. Sunday at the fair
grounds ball diamond here. Both
potent hitting and top caliber
pitching are boasted by the Mil
lers who last week split with the
loop leading Black Sox.
Big name on the Bandon
chucking roster, a man who
should prove a drawing card in
himself, is Ad Liska, exponent
of the submarine pitch. Liska,
after a few seasons in the ma
jors came down to the coast
league and for many seasons
was a fixture and workhorse of
the Portland Beavers; ranking
as one of their, top all-time hurl-
ers. He is expected to get into
at least one game of the series.
Dangerous Hitter
Also on the tossing staff are
Bill Hanauska and Bailey Brem,
Hanauska with 51 has the second
best strikeout mark in the loop.
In batting he is regarded dan
gerous as a long ball hitter. He
is an ex-Willamette university
ace and a veteran of semi-pro
circles. Brem was a member of
Oregon State college's coast and
NCAA district championship
club this spring.
Bandon has five men hitting
above the .300 percentage mark.
They are Bill Burgher, catcher
and ex-Portland Beaver, .406;
Chuck DeAutremont, rightfield
er and ex-Southern Oregon col
lege. .356: Ray Stratton, left-
fielder, .333; Alva Brown, first
base, .304, and Lee Shinn, third
base, .302.
Others who may break into
the starting line-up are .- Pete
Goodbrod, ex-OSC ace, center
fielder; Joe Tom, from Univer
sity of Oregon, shortstop, ' and
Jim Sinovic, second base.
For the week-end the Studs
will have Paul Gehrman, Terry
Maddox and Clarence Mellbye
on their pitching staff. Mellbye
will be on- first base and, if and
when he doesn't pitch. Jack Gor
don at second, Pete Bianchi at
short and ' Alex McDonald at
third may round out the infield
with Don Fawcett, George Sand
ers and George Gitzen in re
serve. 4
The outfield may be selected
from among Moose Blevins,
Snuffy Smith, Maddox and Faw
cett.
It appears that the curtain
will drop on semi-pro baseball
ill Medford this week-end. The
series is the last at home in the
league for the Studs and, so far,
they have announced no plans
for non-league scrambles here.
Medford ends the regular sea
son at Coos Bay on August 23
and 24.
Shaughnessy Set
All Shauehnessy p 1 a y - off
frays will be at North Bend
Teams that finish the regular
season second and fourth will
play the first game on August
31 . and those that wind up
first and third will play the
nightcap of the doubleheader.
On September 1 the losers of
the previous day will play the
first game and the. winners of
the openers the second game.
Medford needs one more win
to ascertan a play-off berth.
However, a Roseburg loss will
assure Medford a Shaughnessy
spot.
Golf Exhibition
Pairings Made
When Helen Dettweiler, top
notch pro golf instructor, ap
pears in an exhibition at Rogue
Valley Country club on Tuesday,
August 19. She will compete in

tions. Both have six wins and

Fish Luck Good
On Upper Rogue
Portland (U.R) Mid-summer
fishing generally is good
throughout most of Oregon, the
Oregon State Game commission
said Friday in its weekly fishing
report. Some limit catches were
reported in both central and
northeastern sections of the
state.
Friday, August 15, 19S2
MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN
The area-by-area details in
cluded: Southwest: Southern coastal
lakes are poor. Salmon fishing
in the lower Rogue is fair to
good. Rogue trout fishing is good
from Prospect to Muir creek and
fair from Gold Hill to Rogue
Elk. Winchester bay salmon
fishing is good and sea-run cut
throats are biting well in the
Siuslaw tidewater areas.
