Derald Wooton, backed by sharp support on the part of Medford fielders, turned in a one-hit chucking job to shut out the Loggers. It was his sixth tri umph against no setbacks in the SOL and brought him the cir cuit'! leading pitcher's trophy. The Studs, who had annexed, unshared, the championship of the loop by beating Coquille Saturday afternoon, completed a three-game sweep by tripping the Loggers yesterday. They took the series opener 3 to 2 and won again Saturday night 13 to 8. Medford's semi-pro nine, with the sweep, concluded SOL play with 17 victories and seven losses. For the full season its rec ord is 21 and 10. The studs wind up their 1956 campaign on the diamond with a non-league jaunt to Klamath Falls to meet the Lakers next Saturday and Sunday. Coos Bay-North Bend took third place by itself in the SOL by taking two games of three in its final series at Bend. The Lumberjacks won 9 to 8 and 11 to 9 and Bend grabbed the Sunday concluder 22 to 11. Week end results put Coquille and Bend in the cellar. Toney Homers While Wooton held the Log gers to a single safety, striking out 10 and walking only one, the Studs collected eight base hits off the offering of Co quille's twirler, Jim Lehl. One was a homerun by Dick Toney over the inner right field bar rier in the fifth inning. Two other hits drove in run ners who had boarded the base baths on errors. In the first frame Cooney got on base on Herb Marino's muff at short stop. He stole second and went to third base on a wild pitch. John Kovenz dumped a fly into short left field to bring the man ager home. In the sixth canto Maddox got on base on a mis cue by Ron Betnar who had taken over at short. The Med ford outfielder got to second, then scampered to third on a passed ball. Jerry Bettendorf drove him home. Only four Coquille men got on base in the fast Hi-hour tussle, on the walk, a fielder's option, the hit and the only Stud error. Not a one of the runners reached second safely. Marino smashed the lone Logger bingle. a liner which second baseman Toney could barely tick with his glove. Double. Play Ends Gam Toney made a fine fielding play in the final inning and Bet tendorf a spectacular one which he turned into a double play to end the contest and the loop slate. Ed Grossebacher, pinch hitting for Lehl, hit a sharp swat which was too well hit for Coo ney to stop from his first base station. But Toney ran wide and deep to field the ball. He threw to first where Wooton had hus tled from the mound. But Woo ton. after the big try, couldn't hang onto the ball. Grossen bacher was safe. Wooton fanned Goodbrod for the first out. Then Joe Mar chand blasted a low scorcher to right field. Bettendorf on a beauty of a stretch snared the ball at near ground level. He threw to Cooney at first to catch Grossenbacher off the bag. Pederson hit two for three for Medford yesterday, includ ing a double and Toney had two for four. Lehl walked two men .,4 ,.,-,-,4,1 ,il,,. ; ""'J"k The two ladies played out the full 18 holes of the round and Miss DeVoe was five over par with an 81 for the circuit. She had a 42 going out and a 39 coming in. Mrs. Hammond card ed 41-43 for 84. The victory established Sue as the leading Rogue Valley can didate for women's honors in the Southern Oregon tournament here, Aug. 29 through Sept. 3. Justin Smith Jr. won the men's championship of RVCC also Sat urday with a 5 and 4 verdict over Bob Hector. ITS his eight innings facing the Studs. Presents Trophies Following yesterday's game, Bill Askwith, the league presi dent, and also business manager of the Studs presented the Coca Cola trophy to player manager Cooney and the SOL trophy to Frank Roelandt. The one trophy was the gift to the champions from Coca Cola Bottling com pany of Medford which is man aged by Wayne Jamison. Yesterday's fast, crowd pleas er was in sharp contrast to the wild Saturday night encounter which was marked by clusters of walks and errors, a six-run frame and three innings of three runs each time. Coquille got a three-run lead in the first inning Saturday night on three hits and three misplays. Medford picked up a run each in the first and sec ond stanzas on two hits each time and went ahead 5 to 3 on three scores in the third inning. There were two hits, four walks and an error in the inning. A hit and three walks helped Med ford to two runs in the fourth panel and the score went to 13 to 3 on the six counters in the fifth inning. Medford got four hits in that turn at bat and there were four Coquille errors. Dick Stephens, who pitched nine innings for Coquille Satur day afternoon, hurled 6 13 in nings of relief in the night luss but couldn't save the game.
