The Medford Cheney Studs
made a blazing finish to their
championship season in the
Southern Oregon Baseball
league Sunday by blanking the
Coquille Loggers 3 to 0 at the
fairgrounds diamond.
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

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.

Tax Law Revision
Studied by Groups
Chicago (U.R) It may please
irate critics to know that special
legislative commissions are wor
king to develop improvements
in state tax laws.
The Commerce Clearing House
a national reporting authority
on taxes, announced that these
groups were assigned to study
40 subjects including revisions
of tax structures, relationship of
federal state and local taxes and
taxes generally.
Possible major overhauling
jobs were studied in 14 states
Alabama, Florida, Iowa, Kan
sas, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska,
New York, NorthCarolina, Ore
gon, Pennsylvania and Texas.
Recommendations of the com
missions may be expected to
bring new ideas on taxation that
could become legislation, auth
orities said.

Phone Disconnected
As Lesson To Girl
Benton Harbor. Mich. (U.R!
When a subscriber called the
Michigan Bell Telephone Co. to
ask that his phone be discon
nected for 30 days, Mrs. Grant
Derfelt quickly asked whether
he was taking a vacation.
"No, not a vacation; I'm going
to be at home," the man answer
ed. "Nothing wrong with the ser
vice, I hope."
"No. The service is fine. I'm
just getting tired of complaints."
"Complaints . . . what kind of
complaints? Mrs. Derfelt asked.
"Well, I'll tell you, I've got a
teen-age daughter, and she's al
ways and forever on the phone
We're on a party line and I just
get tired of having other people
on the line call me up and com
plain.
"I warned my daughter, but
she wouldn't listen, so now I'm
going to rip that phone right out
for a month. Maybe this'll teach
her."

Residence Damaged
By Morning Blaze
Whole upper portion of the
Ralph Green residence on Old
Military rd. was extensively
damaged by fire this morning.
Central Point rural firemen re
ported. Exact cause of the blaze was
not determined. It apparently
started in the upstairs south end
of the residence.
Rural Fire Chief Richard
Krupp said that the blaze was
discovered by a son of the
Greens. Krupp reported that
the fire apparently put the
Green telephone out of commis
sion, delaying the alarm to the
rural department. Six pieces of
fire apparatus were dispatched
when the call came at 7 a.m.
Four were put into service.
Three firemen reportedly fell
through the ceiling to the floor
about eight feet below. One re
quired a doctor's attention.
