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.
The consumption of margarine
increased from 230 million
pounds in 1931 to more than 1.2
billion in 1952. During the same
period, butter consumption de-
! clined from 2.2 billion pounds
j to 1.4 billion.

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.

Connie Sproul, head mentor
of the West team, admitted yes
terday that he is having diffi
culty narrowing his squad down
to a starting combination.
"We may have to go into the
game with two starting line
ups," Sproul said.
He did single out two of his
Siletz players as having an edge
on starting berths, halfback
George Thompson and quarter
back Art Gregory.
