This evening's engagement will be the third of the sea son between the Medford and Central Point squads but it will not count in the district standings. Crater Lake has won both previous scuffles. Third Session . Medford's Thursday tussle with KF will be the third meeting of the two nines and will be a counting game. Klamath won the league game in an earlier doublebill, while Medford took the non-district second mix. Lakeview, badly battered by both Central Point and Grants Pass, will have its first contention with Crater Lake Motors. Central Point, after this evening, rests until Sunday, when it journeys to Grants Pass for a league encounter. The Cheney fracas set for last night at Eoseburg was post poned indefinitely.' Roseburg is currently with out lights and Central Point could not get its squad to gether early enough in the day to go up for a twilight game. Roseburg might have sought the Drain field for night action but word on that possibility would have- come too late for CP to round up its team.

'. . $2.50 1 SPORTS Title Fight On at LA; Weill Out Los Angeles (UPI) A quick shifting of the props to day left the Floyd Patterson Roy Harris heavyweight title fight in Los Angeles but Al Weill, who originally promot ed the bout, no longer was a member of the cast. A few hours after the State Athletic commission at Sacra mento, Calif., announced that it had denied Weill, former manager of Rocky Marciano, a promoter's license, Gus D' Amato said in Houston, Tex., that the fight still would go on here under new auspices Aug. 18. The Hollywood American Legion stadium, which had been associated with Weill in the promotion, will lend its good offices in staging the fight at Wrigley field, sources here said. To Fight Blot Weill, who said Jie would fight the blot on his reputa tion placed there by the ath letic commission, commented that he withdrew only be cause the fight was remain ing in Los Angeles," where it belongs." "Gus D'Amato assured me he had a responsible man who will take over the promotion and I'm glad the fight is stay ing here," Weill said. "I've been working on this fight for several months and I spent $15,000 in arranging it. This is now my home and I with drew from the promotion on the proviso that the fight stayed in Los Angeles." But Weill was still bitter over his being termed "un fit" to stage the fight by the athletic commission. He said he had not given up his fight to clear his name, and his at torney, Jerry Giesler, was studying the commission's ruling.
