Sunday. August 19, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEK BEDFORD CHENEY STUDS DROP COQUILLE TO TAKE SO CHAMPIONSHIP Frank Roelandt's Single In 12th Inning Drives Across Winning Run; White Wins Medxord Cheney Studs nip ped the Coquille Loggers 3 to 2 in 12 innings here yesterday afternoon to claim their first championship in the "modern' Southern Oregon Baseball 1 league. Catcher Frank Roelandt sine led home the winning run with one out in the third extra panel. Second Baseman Dick Toney, , who had walked prior to a one- base infield blow by First Base man Jack Cooney, crossed home with the tie-busting and title bring marker. Yesterday's . fracas was the first encounter of the final three game series of the SOL season for tfee Studs. The victory as sured the Studs of an unshared toga and put Drain, which had a chance to. knot for the crown, in second place. Medford will collect the league trophy and another sponsored by the Coca cola Bottling company of Med ford and its manager, Wayne Jamison. Cam Today Coquille and Medford had their second engagement of the week end last night and wind- up SOL play at 2 p.m. today at the fairgrounds. The Loggers came to Medford with the idea of being spoilers in the Stud s bid for unshared laurels. And yesterday they came close to delaying the champs in that drive for a clear cut mantle. Coquille shoved over its two" runs in the fourth inning while Dick Stephens pitched four-hit ball over seven innings and shut out the Studs in that time. Stephens yielded two safeties in the eighth inning when the Studs deadlocked the game and was tagged for another in the ninth. He gave way in the 10th canto to Dick Morana, who took the loss. Don White pitched the full 12 innings for the Studs and took the win although he was lifted for pinch-hitter Bob Selsor and Derald Wooton was warmed to go to the hill had the game extended into 13 in nings. Marino Triples For the two Coquille markers Roy Harrington singled. Herb Marino tripled and Chuck Hum ble sacrificed expertly to bring Marino home. Roelandt also blasted the safety which enabled Medford to tie the game in the eighth. White helped out his cause with a single and with two out Cooney drew a base on balls. Roelandt slapped the pellet into right field for a hit which sent White home. Perry Stubblefield bob bled the ball in the outfield and that let Toney also score. White t hrew nine-hit ball, ran up seven strikeouts and walked three batters in a fine afternoon. Along with seven hits for nine frames Stephens issued two walks and fanned six. Morana yielded two hits in three innings, walked three and whif fed two. Roelandt Three for Five Roelandt headed the Studs in hitting with three raps in five times while Martell socked two for four. Harrington paced Co quille swatting with three for four. Marino's three-baser and Joe Marchand's double for the Studs were the long blasts of the game. Opportunities slipped by each club to end the game sooner. In the 10th the Loggers loaded the bases on a single by Humble, the double by Marchand and a base on balls to Vincent Miller. Ed Grossenbacher bounded the ball in a squeeze bunt try. Roe landt nabbed the ball and Hum ble slipped by and tagged the plate. Umpire Virg Swanson, however, ruled that Humble ran out of the base line and was out. Goodbrod then . grounded out to retire the side. Three walks, a sacrifice and a force play had three men on base for the Studs with two out in the 11th. A strikeout ended the chance.

Simon Boat Wins Crown At Regatta Detroit, (U.R) Miss U.S. 11, owned by George Simon of Grosse Pointe, Mich., and driv en by Don Wilson, won the silver Cup Regatta for unlimited class power boats Saturday. Miss U.S. II's winning speed was 83.160 miles per hour over the la-mile, five-lap course on the Detroit river between Belle Isle and the Detroit shore before an estimated 100,000 persons. , The fastest lap time for Miss U.S. II, driven by the 24-year-old Wilson, was 91,845 mph. The winner was more than a mile ahead of the only other boat to finish the fnal race, My Sweetie Dora, owned by Horace Dodge of Detroit. The Silver Cup, somewhat dimmed when the west coast's leading boats failed to arrive in time for the event, lost more lustre when a total of five of the eight boats entered, all from the Detroit area, were unable to run in the final race. None of the Silver Cup entries gained enough points Saturday to pass Shanty, the Seattle boat which leads in the competition to defend the trophy. But Shanty, en route here now for the Gold Cup race in two weeks along with other west coast boats, may not arrive in time to race in the three-boat special Harmsworth defense tuneup slated by the U.S. Yacht ing ass'n. Shanty, My Sweetie Dora, Such Crust IH. and Miss U.S. III are the boats nominated for this tuneup test.

Halfback Is Hurt in Car Los Angeles (U.R) Wash ington Redskin Halfback Vic Janowicz suffered a head injury Saturday when a car in which he rode smashed into a telephone pole. He was taken to Hollywood Presbyterian hospital where his. condition was described as "fair." Dr.- John Parry, team physi cian, said Janowicz was "improv ing right along" and was semi conscious. The player is expected to be out of action for one to two months. He also suffered bruises. Barbara Wagner, 21, a student nurse at Hollywood Presbyterian hospital, was the driver of the car, according to police. She suf fered a possible skull fracture, internal injuries and a possible broken breastbone. Janowicz, a former Heisman trophy winner at Ohio state had been out with some other Red skins celebrating a 39-21 victory over the Los Angeles Rams last night, a team official said. Ja nowicz had kicked a field goal and three conversions in the game. Sud Skipper Makes Grade By john Mcdonald United Press Sports Writer Bill Brenner, outfielder turn ed pitcher turned manager, fin ally may have found his slot. Brenner took over as skipper of the Seattle Rainiers Tuesday following the firing of Luke Sewell and now boasts a perfect .1000 record as a Pacific Coast league manager. The Brenner-led Suds, sudden ly reversing a tailspin that knocked them out of a pennant contention, made it three straight Friday night as they again socked the San Diego Padres 7-4. It's a bit early to tell, but Brenner, who bounced around the minors for 15 years without ever quite making the grade as a player, may have found his niche as a pilot. The Tumwater, Wash., native took over the Rainiers 12V4 games behind league-leading Los Angeles. In three days he shaved the lead to 9li, with a big assist from Vancouver which clobbered the Angels three straight times.
