FOURTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday. August 23, I9S7 MEDFOMvSt&TMBUNE sipaDMirs Mounties Give Angels Taste of Own Tricks By JIM HEALY United Prest SuorU Writer All season long the Los An geles Angels have been pulling this business of suddenly jump ing up with a flurry of runs in the last few innings to bewilder the opposition and win the game. Well, they got a taste of their own tricks Wednesday night when Vancouver, trailing by two runs going into the ninth, de cided this contest was too im portant to drop and slammed the Angels for three runs and a 5-4 loss. The win pulled the Mounties to within four and a half games of the idle San Francisco, and gave them a 2-2 series split with Los Angeles. Steve Bilko hit his. 51st homer of the year for the Angels with two on in the fourth to put them in the lead. Jim Marshall gave Vancouver its first score with a solo homer in the third. But the ninth was the inning. Angel starter Tom LaSorda loaded the bases with two singles and a walk, then himself walked to the showers while reliefer Glenn Mickens mismanaged things long enough to allow Vancouver to tie it 4-4 on a snappy single by Cal Segrist. Winning Run The next reliefer, Bill George, threw his second pitch to Carl Powis high and permitted Jim Marshall to bring in the winning run. In other games, Hollywood whipped San Diego for the third straight time, downing the Pads 6-5, in a 10-inning contest, while Seattle defeated Portland by an identical, 6-5 score. Sacramento, like the Seals, was idle. Hal Bevan was the hero of the evening for eattle in another come-from-behind contest. Port land led going into the bottom of the ninth, 5-4, when Bevan connected for a two-run homer that automatically ended the game. Jack Lohrke, a man you are liable to find anywhere on the diamond, won the game, after an inning of relief pitching. The win gave the Rainiers a 3-2 edge over the Beavers in the series. New Leagyes This Season At Medford Bowling Lanes Addition of three or four new leagues this season will take advantage of the expansion of Medford Bowling lanes from 12 to 22 alleys. Three leagues each on Mon day through Thursday nights in stead of two as in the past are projected. On Friday there will be the usual two circuits to leave alleys available for open bowl ing.

On Mondays the lanes has the Men's Classic and Ladies' Victory, loops as in the past, A three-man team loop is contem plated for late rolling. For Tuesdays there are the Crater Lake league and Ladies Classic with an Empire men's circuit in formation. Men's Classic and Chrater Lake have 10 teams and the two ladies circuits 12. The Empire may be eight teams. The size of the three-man circuit is not yet determined. Elks Circuit A new Elks league of eight teams rolls on Wednesdays. In action again are the Commercial and Evergreen, men's loops with 10 and 12 groups, respectively. The City and Rogue Valley men's competition has been scheduled again for Thursdays with 12 and 10 quintets. A new eight-team circuit is contemplat ed.

Henderson Huston Lubbers Atkins Wise Many Small Plants Considered Belter Desire of Jackson County Chamber of Commerce officials to attract a number of small in dustries to the valley rather than one large one was brought out by Bill Williams, Western Com ponents firm official, at the Med ford Kiwanis luncheon yester day at Rogue Valley Country club. He mentioned the decent rali zation tendencies of large firms and told of some of the advan tages and disadvantages for in dustry in this area. He pointed to the small indus tries, of 20 to 100 employees, which might grow, as better for valley health, stability and econ omy, than one of several thou sand employees. Industry decentralization with locations in small, stable com munities is favored by govern ment as a defense measure, he reported. Williams said climate and rec- reatidnal assets here is favorable to industry. The tax rale in Ore gon, the transportation problem and distance to markets were listed as disadvantages. Speak ing as head of the chamber's in dustrial development committee, Williams said freight trucking and airline use now make trans portation less a problem. Concerning Western Compo nents, formed by Harry and David's Bear Creek orchard firm, Williams pointed to the desire of the business to diver sify both in and out of their line and not just in electronics. The additional activity is sought to broaden the base of business and economy of the valley, Wil liams slated. He reported the Harry and David Holmes business wants to diversify because of its large administrative staff and present operation part of the year. The expansion would make year around jobs for its employees. Davis Transfer 498 Bex 428 Vallee 492 Larson 532 L.

This 6.000 foot air is crisp in the sunshine and frosty at night and the general tone of it is In dian summer. Most of the camp ers are gathering their young sters up and heading back for school but there are still plenty of folks who like to take their vacations late and stretch the summer into the early fall. For the most part the fishing isn't quite as good as it was in the early season. Most of the lakes are low and very clear and the trout have had a variety of lures presented to them for the past three months that they are very cagey. Some of the usual hot spots are very disappointing. Davis lake that fly-fisherman's para dise has been a very slow pro ducer. Some good catches have been made, at least displayed, but unfortunately they have been taken on lures, eggs and trolls in spite of the fact that this lake is fly fishing only. It seems that some folks couldn't have any fun unless they poach a bit. will help you STOP SMOKING 5, ientists proved in finical tests, that pleasant to take. You must . ' Smoking Deterrent Tablets. Wainscott's Pharmacy 322 E. MAIN - MEDFORD One of the best spots for real ly big fish has been Wickiup dam where fish from four-eght pounds have been taken on a fly in the evenings. For some days the channels and stump patches literally boiled each evening with feeding "Browns". Most of the higher lakes have been very poor. There are fish there but for some reason known only to the fish they will not strike. One of the peculiarities of this region is that when there is hatch of flies, the artificial that is used must be almost an exact duplicate in color and size and when there is no natural hatch, the fish refuse to rise. This presents a problem to the fisherman because of the varie ty of flies that are common Some anglers do very well on small spinning lures. The most consistent producers are the weighted spinners such as the Moto or Nip, the Super Duper in 500 and 501 size, brass, and 16 oz. Wobblerites. Many of the smaller lakes can be fished with these lures using light rods and 3 or 4 lb. lines. "The fish at this time of year are in the deeper water and this makes it easier for the spinner fisherman who can stand on the rocks near the deeper waters and cast for them. Actually this country would be a great place to spend a week or two at this time of year even if one didn't go fishing for the color in the volcanic mountains, the deer in the meadows, the chirps of the squirrels and the quiet of it all are surely a tonic to the soul. How fortunate we Oregonians are that within a few short miles from our homes lies such a vast, unspoiled wilderness, hundreds of miles of primeval forest, the heritage of our hardy pioneers.

Two-Day Respite Ends As Stocks Go Down New York m Stocks re sumed their decline today after a two-day respite. Lowest prices were achieved around midsession. At that time more than half of the two-day recovery had been wiped out in the industrial average. Railroad issues performed more poorly and at their worst were at a new low since Dec. 3, 1954. Recoveries that occurred cen tered on the leading issues such as 'the steels, motors and oils. The special issues and stocks outside the group used in calcu lating the averages met little support.
