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

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

Lausse Opposes
Jones Tonight
In Garden Fight
New York (U.R) Eduardo
(KO) Lausse of Argentina, box
ing's newest "wild bull of the
pampas," risks his 27-bout win
ning streak against trial-horse
Ralph (Tiger) Jones of Yonkers,
N.Y., tonight at Madison Square
garden.
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.
Ted Williams
Signs Contract
Boston (U.R) The news
that has thrilled millions of base
ball fans and will haunt Ameri
can league pitchers this season
became official today when Ted
Williams signed a contract to
play "the game I love" with the
Boston Red Sox.
The well-conditioned but
slightly overweight slugger was
scheduled to arrive here by
plane today after a flight from
Miami, Fla.
Then modern baseball's most
magical name was to be signed
to another $100,000-year-con-tract
with Boston , before Red
Sox Manager Mike Higgins, his
team, and newsmen met Ted
Williams, formally for the 1955
season at a press conference.

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

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. Joe Brovia hit a solo
homer for the Oaks in the ninth.
. The San Diego Padres an
nounced the outright release of
catcher-Jim Gladd and outfield
er Al Zarilla.
