Survival of Softball Loop Hinges
On Meeting at YMCA This Evening
The carry-over administra
tion of the Medford Softball
association makes its last ef
fort tonight to gel organiza
tion underway for the 1935
reason.
A meeting has been set for
8 p.m. in Room B at the YM
CA. Unless there is a good
turnout tonight, unless suffi
cient interest shown and unless
some steps are taken toward
organizing for the year, no
further action is contemplated
according to Herb Vessey, re
tiring president.
All persons interested in
Softball and continuation .of
formal league play are in
vited to the meeting.
Play last season wound up
with twilight games - after
funds ran out for night play
expenses. All ' indications are.
however, that twilight play is
unpopular. Vessey has men
looking into the possibilities
of playing at Talent or Cen
tral Point.
Interest in Softball here
died out while Medford had
professional baseball between
1948 and 1951. The sport was
revived when pro ball gave
up the ghost but efforts to
keep softball alive have been
a rough struggle. Outlook at
present is dim. Pre-pro base
ball enthusiasm has never
been gained. With fan support
poor, finances have dwindled
and the burden of operating
Scattergunners

BOWLING
EVERGREEN LEAGUE

toga in the Evergreen League
teems to have narrowed down to
the Medford Barbers, Swift and
Co. and Pierce Auto Freight.
Pierce holds tight to the top spot,
but Swifts gained this week,
moving ahead of the Barbers an
other 2 points. Swift took a 4-0
series from the first half winners,
the City Hall Slickers. Pierce
split with the Big Y Super Mar
ket boys, and the Barbers split
with the Bel Air Chevs. Sherwin
Williams Paints moved out of the
cellar with a 4-0 victory over
the Dairy boys from Jorgensen's,
while the First National took
over the bottom by dropping a
3-1 series to Tru-Mix Construc
tion. Jerry Burroughs for Tru-Mix
rolled 2 games of 200 each, but
failed to pick up enough for a
triplicate with his 3rd game.
High Team game of the evening
was that of the Tru-Mix with
883. but the Bel Air Chevs had
high series with 2513.
Piston Quintet
Leads in Series
Indianapolis, Ind. (U.R) The
Fort Wayne Pistons, who found
the winning formula of surging
to an early lead and outlasting
the Syracuse Nats, headed for
Syracuse today, one victory
away from the National Basket
ball Association championships.
The Pistons barely stopped a
furious Syracuse Rally Thurs
day night to capture their third
straight triumph, 74-71.
Uphill Struggle
The win marked an uphill
struggle for the Pistons who now
are leading in the best-of-seven
series for the first time. Fort
Wayne added to its dismal rec
ord at Syracuse, where it has
dropped 26 straight games in six
years, by losing the first two
tilts.
On their return to Indiana,
the Pistons suddenly found
themselves, to take a 3-2 edge
in the series, and hoped their
momentum will break the Syra
cuse jinx Saturday afternoon.
Dead line Sunday Classified is at
noon Saturday: 1 a. m. Monday for
Monday: other days 5 :30 previous day.
