The Studs added another marker and Drain collected two counter"! in the' concluding canto before stop- j ping the Black Sox threat to overtake them. I Seventeen-year-old Jack Rrilly out of Grant high school of Port- . land is a promising young' pitcher hut over two innings yesterday the Cheney Studs found his tosses much to their liking. In the second inning, after Der.ild W'ooton drew a base on balls. Twink Perierson and Bob Sclsor slapped singles. Dick Toncy came through with a fly double to right field and Frank Roelandt safetied. The Studs ran up three scores in the frame. Eeilly Chased In the third Jack Cooney lined a double to right field, stole third base and ceme home on Keilly's bad throw in an at tempt to nip the steal. Wooton then lined to left for two bases and Pederson bounced the ball over the left field wall for an automatic double. That chased Keilly to the dugout with two runs in. Bill Croco. coming in as reliever, gave up a hit to Sclsor which let in another run. A force out and flyout retired the side. Other Stud run was in the seventh on Cnoney's infield rap. Jerry Bettcnrinrf's sacrifice and Wooton s one baser. Sclsor hurled six hit ball for Medford. He was touched for a single by Cliff Girod. Drain's first man up in the game but yielded no other safety during the first six innings. In the fifth panel, however. Selsor walked the bases full. Then two of the three errors by the Studs allow ed in three Sox runs. A sock by Don Kirch got through Betten derft at third base to aljow in ;!: rl ar.d ga-.e a K 2 '. f:; :i: Hit 3 for 4 (-.'.Tioy ai three for Wootso,, sia and Sols' I'.-.t ' ' von ana : n in t e 1 issle so-, on hi's off o off Croco.

Aror.-on ctrurk out throe men and waiked four in hi mound triumph Saturday night. Don ' White, backed by some good rie- ; tensive work on the part of his teammates, was in real diffi culty only in two innings as he j tossed seven hit ball for the Studs. He fanned eight and gave four liases on balls. ! Drain combined a walk to Ad ' Hutsrhman and singles by Norm Weic-li ,-ind Pat Wohlers in the. second inning for one run. In j the eight' Bill Beard got to sec end base on shortstop Twink Pederson's throwing miseue. A' two-bagger hy Xorval Richey' brought in the marker. j Medford pulled off two double i plays in the tussle w ith Pedcr- j son and second baseman doing! some nice fielding and the Studs' stemmed Sox threats on two oc casions on forces that caught runners going into third bases. First baseman Jack Cooney, as j he did through the series made some sensational stretches for putouts at his sack. Drain had one double play in the fuss. i No player Saturday night got more thnn one hit Medford put men on 'oases. leaving nine stranded, but couldn't get the c":ff:cier. punch to score. He'.ser Ejected First big argument came in the second inning when umpire Virgii Swanson railed a balk on Aronson. Play was interrupted! for seven to 10 minutes but Swanson nrtadp his decision s'ick and Heiser was banished from 'hp playing field and the Dram dugout. The other spiri'ed beef was in ' the seven' h inning with Jerry Bettendorf of the Studs at bat j Hp rapped a ball in'o thp infield which was obviously fair but :an only halfway to first base ( and haltod. Aronson threw the ball to the sack for a putout. But Bettendorf claimed that, plate ump Erie Klein had yelled foul ball on the play. After several minutes of lively rieha'e in which Studs swarmed around Klein, it was decided to let Be'tendorf go back and con tinue batting. That brought the Sox converging around Klein tor hea'cd words which lasted several minutes. Finally the Studs' third baseman was per mitted to bat with Drain play ing under protest. Bettendorf settled the issue hy striking out. Many "long balls" were hit in the series including a good num ber which were flics caught deep in the outfield.

Giles today 10 do something about his criti cism of Umpire Frank Secory. Lane was exasperated because Secory called third baseman Boyer out at first in the fourth inning of Sunday's game with the Brooklyn Dodgers. "W'hen an umpire makes a decision like that he ought to pay to get in to see the game," Lane said. "He boots one and then throws tiie player out like a bad doctor burying his mis takes.'' Lane said lie was certain Secory made a bad call because of Boycr's reaction. Boyer nor mally says nothing to umpires. Lane said. It was the first time in Boycr's career that he had been thrown out of a gamp. Camp White, Colts Score Rogue Valley Loop Wins itorn r v m 1 fy I.KAf.l F.
