Cave Junction will be at Camp White and Butte Falls at Ash land in the Rogue Valley league slate. The Cheney Colts, who have the fairgrounds here as their home park, will go to Glendale and Eagle Point will Journey to Grants Pass to round out the RVL program for the week end. This Sunday's games will open the second half of play in the circuit. Glendale wound up on top with only one setback during the first time around and the Millers will be striving to hold on to their one game mar gin against the Cheney nine. The Colts. Grants Pass and Cave Junction, now knotted for second, all have an opportunity to move into a deadlock with Glendale for the lead. Grants Pass rules heavy favorite over Eagle Point but the Colts and Outlaws will have tougher go ing in their respective quests. Camp White is on the upsurge with a stronger line-up and will make a strong bid to spoil the Cave Junction ambitions. Glendale tripped the Colts 6 to 4 in a loop starter fray here. The defending champs will hope to have Pitcher Duane Miller over his sore arm. But they have also a capable twirler in Bob Stokes whom they might send against the Cheney aggre gation. Morris Heads Batter Manager Harry Tonn report ed that Duane Sides may get the pitching nomination with Kay Kelley and Bruce Forette in re serve. Catcher will be either Howard Morris and Doy Gatlin with Morris likely getting the nod in order that both will be in the line-up. Morris is leading the Colts with .388 mark in hitting and Gatlin is fourth with .321. With Morris behind the plate, Gatlin likely would be in the outfield. Infielders may be Harvey Tonn at first base, Morris Churchman at second, Donn Johnson or Don LaBeau at third and Frank Rector at shortstop. Outfielders may be chosen from among Gatlin, Ed Reink ing, Bob Serak and Larry Big ham. Sides is hitting .352 for the Colts and Churchman .340. Har vey Tonn has a .312 average. Reinking and Serak reportedly are crowding .300. Bob Nelson may be the pitch er for Camp White with Al Waldron and Don Mintz handy for relief. Gordy Thoreson, Larry Irwin, Dick Wooton, Frank Revard, John Drew, Tom Rodgers, John Niles and Ive Mc Kinney are others who may see duty for the Whiters. Zulueta Foe Of Lightburn New York lU.Rl Lightweight contender Ludwig Lightburn of British Honduras is delighted to be substituting on a Friday, the 13th, for the second time this year in tonight s TV-radio 10 rounder with veteran Orlando Zulueta at Madison Square Gar den. "Friday, the 13th, was lucky for me in January when I sub stituted for Jimmy Carter at San Francisco and beat Joey Lopes, who is a very fine fighter," Lightburn explained today. "So, tonight I should be lucky too." It's somewhat different this time, liowever, for both Light- bum and Zulueta are substitut ing for an originally scheduled iratch between middleweights Rockey Castellani and Joey Gi ambra. A hand injury in training caused Giambra to ask for a postponement to Aug. 3. Neverthe less. 22-year-old Lightburn is a lucky 13-5 favor ite over 28-year-old Zulueta be cause of his speed, stamina and harder punch.
