Movei Dodgers Up Robinson's game - winning hit, which came off Dave Jolly and scored PeeWee Reese from sec ond base, was a tremendous blow over center fielder Bill Bruton's head.

Pet .3 S 1 000 .2 1 .667 . 0 4 .000 Grants Pasa . Medford Ashland Coach Bill Esselstyn of the Central Point pee wees today was negotiating for a game with Grants Pass which could deter mine tht championship in South ern Oregon Junior Baseball league play. The Pointers overwhelmed Eagle Point 24 to 2 yesterday in the final game of the regular pee wee southern division season to assure at least a tie for the di vision toga. Actual settlement of the south ern race was delayed by the postponement of the Medford Wildcats-Medford Tigers tussle. The two clubs were kept off their field yesterday by prepar ations for the annual Shrine cir cus. The game may be made up next Monday. A Wildcat win would knot the club with CP for the southern banner while a Tiger verdict would give the Pointers the crown alone. Since the summer baseball program at Central Point ends this Friday and no chance seems possible for a play-off if the Wildcats earn a division tie, Esselstyn obtained the green light for a game with the Grants Pass northern division club. Should the 'Cats beat the Tigers next week, a Medford - Grants Pass ruckus might also be arranged. In the other pee wee game played yesterday Ashland de feated Lone Pine 6 to 4. Centra Point picked up seven runs each in the first and third innings against Eagle Point on three hits and four bases on balls each time. Twenty-five players got into the game for CP. Eagle Point got two hits, both off Pat Pepper who was pitching his first game for Central Point. Medford kept in the running for club honors by defeating Ashland 5 to 4 on Monday. The local club now has a chance to knot for the title in its game with Grants Pass next Monday. Ashland led Medford 4 to 0 go ing into the fourth inning. Med ford got two markers in that frame and three in the fifth, Runs in the fifth came on singles by Ray Konopasek and Paul Moore, a fielder's option, a base on balls and an error.
