Tuo Eds Spur tornado Victory Over Cavemen SOUTHERN' OREGON CONFERENCE STANDINGS W. . Ftt. Grant Paaa 7 2 .778 Medford 8 4 .600 Klamath Falls : 4 . 3 -31 1 a juu With superb one-hit pitching by Ed McCullough and with Ed Reinking shining both at bat and in the field, the Medford high baseball aggregation stirred up its Southern Oregon Confer ence and District 6 A-l chances anew yesterday by goose-egging the league leading Grants Pass Cavemen 4 to 0. While Pitcher McCullough, backed by good fielding support, was chucking sharply and sure ly, striking out seven batters, six in a row, Centerfielder Reinking blasted out a home run and a double, scored three of Medr ford's runs and made a sensa tional desperation leaping snag of a Grants Pass wallop which otherwise had "extra bases" written all over it. The victory boosted Black Tornado spirits for another im portant tangle with the Cave men today. Grants Pass was the site this afternoon of the fourth and final regular season clash .between the two clubs. It was " "win or else" for Medford for another loss would eliminate the Tornado from the conference race. Yesterday's decision was the sixth in 10 league combats or the Black Tornado. It was the second loss of the season for Grants Pass which had seven loop victories. Both GP defeats have been inflicted by Medford. The Tornado Thursday hopped back into second place ahead of Klamath Falls which had a doublebill at Ashland this after noon. , With the chase tightening and with the A-l and A-2 inter district play-oifs only a week - away, the situation is compli cated by rained out games. Med ford has one to make up against Klamath Falls and Grants Pass UGAL NOTICES NOTICE kt tfe Circuit Court of tha Stat of Or con for Jackson County Kb tha Matter of tha Estata of Frank S.

That made GP aim for a win today and hope for an Ashland double sweep over KF, which would eliminate necessity of making up the frays. Reinking gave Medford its opening run of the Thursday battle of bludgeoning GP Tosser George Herr's first pitch of the game for a home run. Grants Pass fans maintained the smash was misjudged by Centerfielder Del Oden but the ball was well tagged, went over the fielder's head and dropped far out into the pasture. Margin Enough The homer gave the Tornado margin enough for victory but Medford added one more in the third inning 4 and two in the fifth for good measure. " In the third with one out Reinking drew a base on balls, stole second base and went.- to third on a passed ball. Frank Rector flied out but Dick Mc Laughlin walked. McLaughlin dashed off first, on the throw to trap Mac, Reinking swiped home and Dick got back to first safely. Jacobs followed with a single to put runners on first and third. On the second double-steal try of the inning McLaughlin was out at the plate. Reinking led off . the fifth stanza with a double and he and Rector were safe on Frank's bunt fielder's choice. Reinking tallied on McLaughlin's ground out with Rector going to third. Paul Eckel singled Rector home. Don James, first GP man up in the fray, got the only hit off McCullough, a single. The Cave man infielder went to second on a steal and was the only GP run ner to reach that base in the game. Runners got on base only four times. James succeeded again on an error, Bill Menden- hall was hit by a pitch and Joe Carson was issued McCullough's only walk. McCullough fanned his six in a row following Jame's hit. The Medford pitcher helped his own cause with three fielding assists Medfordites whacked Herr for six hits. He walked four and hit one batter. Reinking's fielding gem came on Bill MendenhaU'srap in the third inning. He made a leaping one-handed catch, tumbled and rolled over but held on to the ball. Virg Swanson was plate um pire .for yesterday's game. Grants Pass requested that he hold down the post. GP Coach Mel Ingram, after a beef here last Tuesday, had 'said; he wouldn't have Swanson for yes terday's game Medford entertains Yreka, Calif., here Saturday afternoon.

Lausse, the world's seventh ranked middleweight contender, is a 2-1 favorite for the nationally- televised and broadcast NBC 10-rounder. Frequently referred to as a small-sized Luis Firpo, the original "wild bull" from the Argentine, Lausse has lived up to his nickname by scoring 25 knockouts since his last loss to former welterweight champion Kid Gavilan at Buenos Aires 32 months ago. Has Won 57 The dark-haired, left hook specialist has won 57 of 65 fights since entering the pro ranks and frequently is mentioned as a logical contender for the 160 pound title if Bobo Olson moves into the heavier ranks. He has 48 knockouts to his credit. Jones, a solid body - puncher, is an up-and-down fighter who has discouraged many name fighters since he entered the pro ranks in 150. He has won 34 of 50 bouts but boasts only nine knockouts.

Padres Gain First Place Alone in Coast League; Beavers Nudge Oaks 3-2 By PETER HAYES United Press Sports Writer The San Diego Padres had first place in the Pacific Coast league all to themselves today, thanks to a 10-game winning streak sparked by the booming bat of Earl Rapp. The Pads beat Hollywood, 4-3, last night when Rapp, the pun maker's pal, socked his 10th homer with one aboard in the eighth to break a 2-2 tie. . San Diego had been tied with Los Angeles for first but the An gels were blanked, 6-0, by Seat tle and dropped into third place. The Rainiers were second, a half game behind the Padres. Elsewhere in the PCL, Sacra mento edged San Francisco, 6-5, and Portland beat Oakland, 3-2, after Oak centerfielder George Metkovich was knocked uncon scious by Dick Waibel's pitch in the first inning. Metko was re ported in satisfactory condition in a hospital. Rapp Hitting Rapp's slugging has been the major factor in San Diego's drive from sixth place to the top in the last 10 days. In that period the 33-year-old right fielder has hit seven homers, knocked in "I runs and batted .412. He now shares the home run leadership with Steve Bilko of Los Angeles and is far out in front in the. RBI department with 43. Veteran righthander Elmer Singleton tossed a four - hitter in Los Angeles while Bobby Bal sena led the 11 - hit Rainier at tack with two singles and a double to drive in three runs. Sensational Catch In San Francisco, Sacramento dropped the Seals into seventh place with a hard-fought victory featured by Pete Milne's sensa tional catch of Dave ID and : Bartlett Slreafs lesOITRIBUNI liner that squelched an eight In ning San Francisco rally. Waibel (3-4) settle down after hitting Metkovich and limited the Oaks to seven hits. Al Gettel (6-4) was the victim, suffering his first defeat after six straight wins. The Beavers scored all their runs in the first inning, with Dick Whitman's single, Clarence Maddern's sacrifice fly and Ed Mickelson'a single driving them across.
