Mixllord Cave Junction fitendalt 4 Prt 1 noo .7.V) .300 .23S .123 Talent Bull rails Camp Whit Grant Pass With another sharp chucking chore by Jerry Bartow, who also wielded the most potent bludgeon of the day, the Med- ford Cheney Studs cleared a big hurdle Sunday in their quest for the Rogue Valhsv league base - ball championship. Bartow tossed a three-hitter s me aiuas cnppea uienaaie o to o and extended their un beaten skein to eight games in the RVL. Clendale stayed in third place in the loop despite the loss but had company at that position when Ashland-Talent joined the Loggers by thumping Butte Falls 10 to 3. Cave Junction was more scure in second spot with an 8 to 4 victory over Grants Pass in the other Sunday game. Homer Spoils Shutout , Ray Munyon ruined Bartow's opportunity for a shutout. The Mcdford thrower held the Log gers to one safe swat over the first eight innings. Pinch-hitter Buddy Smart led off the ninth with single but was forced out by Bob Stolz. Then Wayne Berg received the only walk Bartow gave up during the afternoon. Munyon followed with a three-run homer blast over the right field wall to ac count for all the Glendale scoring. Collecting a three-bagger and two doubles in four times at O Dat, Bartow drove in three runs. Jerry Droscher put over two of the Stud markers with a single and Ed Reinking's sacrifice fly out produced the other batted in run. The two other Medford runs crossed the plate on errors. John Kovenz was another heavy slugger for the Studs with two doubles in four trips and Larry Perkuii hit two for five. Bunt Misfires Bartow struck out Loggers 12 times. Eleven of the putouts by the Studs were recorded on ground fielding chances. Four of the outs came from three fly balls, one of which was turned into a double play when Jack Snelling popped to Bartow on a misfired bunt attempt. Medford clouted Glendale's starting hurler, Dwayne Miller, for eight of Its nine hits. Miller walked only one man and fan ned four but he hit four Stud batters with pitches, which could have had more serious ' consequences. One hit Eldon Francis on the top of the head but the reserve Medford catcher got up almost immediately to trot out to first base and con tinue in the game. Another toss was a painful one on Frank Rector'i arm. Francis replaced Manager Frank Roelandt when he suffer ed a finger injury in the seventh inning. Horn On Error The Studs scored first in the second inning on a double by Kovenz, Roelandt's groundout and an error. With Kovenz on third, Miller unleashed a wild pitch. Munyon retrieved the ball quickly enough to discour age Kovenz from a try to come home but Munyon's throw to Miller, who had come into the plate, got away from the pitcher and Kovenz took advantage of the chance. Droscher was hit by a pitch in the fifth inning and went to second base on Rector's sacrifice. Bartow cracked the ball to right field and was able to get to sec ond base but Droscher, who had held up on the fly ball, stopped after reaching third. An error on a ball hit by Reinking got Droscher home. Kovenz two-based again in the sixth inning. Ron Owings and Roelandt were hit by pitches and Droscher singled for two runs. A base on balls, two hit batters, fielder's choice, Bar tow's double and Reinking's fly out compiled four runs in the eighth inning. Cotton Homers Talent clubbed out 13 hits while pitcher Mark Fitch was limiting Butte Falls to four. Pete Cotton sparked the hitting with four safeties in five times up, including a homer with one man on in the second inning. Ron Weinhold hit two for two and Clyde Smith two for four including a double. Big innin? for Talent was the fifth with three runs., on singles Crocker, Smith Take Homestead Hot Springs, Va.

Hoad Beaten By Gonzales Forest Hills, N.Y. (IB Pancho Gonzales proved again that he is king of the pro tennis wdrld and now promoter Jack Kramer can only hope that big Pancho doesn't turn out to be a financial prophet, too. Gonzales completed a 5-0 clean sweep in Kramer's "Tourn ament of Champions" Sunday by whipping Jack's new rookie gate attraction. Lew Hoad of Australia, 9-7, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3. That was the third beating in five matches in the tourney for fair-haired Hoad. And Kramer must remember painfully that Gonzales warned him this might happen. Pancho didn't want to play in the tournament because he thought losses suffered by Hoad might hurt the gate for the Gonzales-Hoad world tour starting next winter.
