But, like the men heading the track and field depart ment of American sports, Jones apparently has been thinking about the Russian system enough to have some thoughts on the subject. "I guess they are going to go into tennis in a big way," the Los Angeles tennis star developer said, "Jack Kramer was telling me about his visit over there. "They had some plans for building tennis courts so they did a bit of mass produc tion. They built 40 courts, all in a row. But they made a slight error. Right in the middle of the hard-top sur face, they had built a drain age flue to take care of water runoffs. Kramer told them it would be impossible to play 1 tennis on these slanting courts, "Next day when he came out, he found they had ploughed up the whole 40 courts." Jones doesn't agree with Senators Hear Robinsqn and Feller Testify Washington (LTD Major league players should have a voice in choosing the commis sioner of baseball, two for mer diamond stars agreed to day. Jackie Robinson and Bob Feller told the Senate judic iary subcommittee Friday that such a measure of self-govern-meent among the players would help solve some of the sport's current problems. However, that was about the only point on which the now retired major leaguers saw eye to eye. Robinson, for 10 years the pride of the Brooklyn Dodg-j ers, declared "The bonuses the young fellows are getting to sign contracts should not be discontinued." Feller, the Cleveland Indians' ex-strikeout artist, termed them "ridic ulous," adding they inflate the ego of the players, cause re sentment on teams and block orderly development of talent. Softball Action on Tap This Week at CW Jackson county Softball as sociation action this week at Memorial Stadium, Camp White pits the Junior Cham ber of Commerce nine against the Eagle Point Merchants at 7 p.m. and the Butte Falls Loggers against the Bureau of Reclamation at 9 p.m. Mon day. In their last outings the Loggers, Merchants, and Bu reau clubs each won. The Javcees fell victim to the Bu reau in their last encounter. Games scheduled for last Thursday were unplayed be cause of weather conditions. This Thursday M and W Chain Saw will clash with the Rogue Valley Dairy Maids in the opener at 7 o'clock, and the Butte Falls Loggers will encounter Parson Motors in the 9 p.m. game. j DRIVER ESCAPES WRECK.. ; Wilkes-Barre, Pa. tUPD Three sports car fans were in jured Friday when a Corvette Special went out of control and crashed through a safety fence. The driver, William Nichols of Chester, Pa., was not injured as he leaped from the racer seconds before the smash-up. es and day j the season j his career. and the 244th of Wynn struck out 11 batters and both Washing ton runs were unearned. Hal Woodeschick pitched a seven-hitter and Earl Averill hit a three-run homer for the Indians, who handed Charlie Beamon his third loss. Wood eschick was recently recalled from San Diego, where he had a 10-2 record, while Averill was brought back from the same club with which he was hitting .353. UNE Kramer that the Russians will be a major factor in the game of tennis in five years. And he is non-commital on the possibility of the Russians en tering Davis Cup play. "They have to be invited by the other countries, you know," he pointed out. ' Girl In Finals It was noticeable that in the junior division at Wimbledon last week one of the Russian girls went to the finals indi cating that the Russians do know something about the game of tennis. And it is probable that under the Russian "five year plan,", they may become a po tent force in the world's ten nis circles. It has been only since the close of World War II that the Soviet started featuring track and field as a major sport and already they are to be reckoned with in many events. It now is possible that if the U.S. ever gets to the place where it can whip Australia, it then will have to battle Russians for supremacy which isn't a very bright pros pect for our dwindling tennis fortunes.

ROSEBURG LEGION CLUB DEFEATS MEDFORD 8-4 The Crater Lake Motors nine dropped an 8-4 contest with Roseburg Friday night in an American Legion junior baseball contest at the win ner's field. The host team took an early lead in the fray, picking up two runs in the third inning and another one in the fourth. Medford came back in the top of the fifth with a single run driven in by a sharp single off the bat of Bob Quinney. Roseburg took charge in the bottom of the sixth, however, and scored four more runs, and then added another one in their half of the sixth. Starting pitcher Tom Halla day for the winners lost his ball control in the seventh in ining and the Medford club rallied with three runs be fore relief hurler Bill Eswine put out the fire and ended the game. Halladay opened . the sev enth by issuing four straight walks. It was then that Es wine took over. He struck the first batter he faced with a pitched ball, forcing in the NO IRON STORE - PENNEY'S STREET second run of the inning. Med ford managed another run, scored on a wild pitch, before Eswine retired the side. ' During the contest, losing Pitcher Tom Laurance struck out six and walked two while Halladay struck out five and walked seven.
