Jim Kelly To Chuck
Against McCloud Nine
Lefthander Jim Kelly, who
twirled a seven-hitter last week
against a California team and
fanned 21 batters, gets another
opportunity against a Bear state
crew tonight. He's been named
starting pitcher for the Medford
Cheney Studs when they face
the McCloud Loggers at the
fairgrounds park here.
Game time is 8 P.m. It is a
non-league fray.
Business Manager Bill Ask
with reported that Marv Scherpf
likely will get the call should
Kelly require relief.
McCloud is one of the front
runners in the Northern Cali
fornia loop and may give the
Studs a harder time of it than
previous NCL contingents have
provided. Reports of last week's
NCL activity have not been
received here but McCloud was
tied with Tulelake for the lead
going into the holiday affairs
and one of the two scuffles
scheduled was against Tulelake.
Seeks 61h Decision
Medford has yet to fall to a
Northern California foe this sea
son. The Studs have beaten
Yreka three times and Mt. Sha
sta and Scott Valley each once,
That has the Studs tonight aim
ing for its sixth straight success
against clubs from south of the
border. It was agamst Scott Val
ley that Kelly got his last week's
victory-
The McCloud pitcher may be
picked from among Don Nichols,
Toreson and Kersten.
Askwith will be field manag
er for the Studs tonight since
the regular skipper, Clarence
Mellbye, is spending a few days
with relatives at Silverton.
Picking up the pieces of last
week end's Southern Oregon
Hillman Robbins
Picked To Keep
Colonial Title
Memphis, Tenn. (U.R) A
field which reads like a "who's
who" in Southern golf opened a
five-day battle today to block
Hillman Bobbins' bid for his
fifth straight Colonial Invitation
golf tournament championship.
The slender Memphis swinger
has won the Colonial four times
running since 1951, an almost
unheard of feat for a tournament
of this caliber.
Some 130 golfers teed off this
morning to open two days of
medal qualifying for 30 cham
pionship berths. Robbins and
Walker Cupper Dale Morey of
Martinsville. Ind., were auto
matically qualified for the cham
pionship flight, Robbins because
he is defending champ and
Morey because of his record and
the fact he was unable to get
here until Thursday.
Robbins, the national intercol
legiate champ, is favored to re
tain his crown.
But he faces stiff competition
from players like Morey and Don
F. Bisplinghoff of Orlando, Fla.,
North-South amateur champ and
a semi-finalist in the British
Amateur.

Washington
Studs Sport
14-3 Record
v Washington Cheney Studs, the
Northwest American Baseball
congress champs who play the
Medford Cheney Studs here Sat
urday and Sunday, currently are
carrying a 14 win 3 loss record.
They were to play one game this
week before coming to Medford
for the two-game series.
Latest victories for the young
but potent Washington Cheney
club were 7 to 2 over Troy, Mont,
last Saturday and 3 to 2 over the
Granum White Sox at Lacome,
Alta., Canada on Monday. Troy
was met at Bdnners Ferry, Ida.
Winning pitcher for the Studs
against Troy was Monte Geiger,
outstanding player last, year at
the Northwest regional tourney.
Ron Georger tossed the last sev
en innings of the Monday game,
fanning 15 and getting credit
for the win. Dick Naish, the old
man of the club, hit a two run
homer in the eighth inning Mon
day to sew up the fracas.
: Of the Washington club's
three setbacks, two were at the
hands of the Yakima Bears of
the Northwest league and only
one was inflicted by a semi-pro
crew.
. Ben Cheney of the Cheney
Lumber company, sponsor of
both the Washington and Med
ford teams, is a firm believer in
development of young players
and most of the squad which
will come here will be made up
of diamonders of prep and .col
lege age from the Seattle and
Tacoma area.
Just out of high school, for
instance, are Luther Carr, hard
hitting outfielder and all-around
athlete, and Bob Jacobs, short
stop, most valuable player in
the recent Seattle-State all-star
series. Carr, star football half
back and track man, is the most
publicized man on the team.
