Four Coast Loop Games Conclude 7-4; Portland Defeats Seattle Rainiers By DON BECKER United Press International The coincidence rate in the Pacific Coast league hit a new high Wednesday night. It wasn't enough that all the visiting teams reversed losses of Tuesday night, which they did, but three of the re versals were by identical scores of 7-4. Wednesday night's, heroics probably tied a record for the number of 7-4 games in one night in one league, but no official records are available of this sort of thing. Ill those 7-4 affairs, Spo kane defeated Vancouver, Salt Lake took Phoenix and Portland beat Seattle. In the nonconforming contest, San Diego thrashed Sacramento 6-1. The Solons managed to maintain their two-game lead over Vancouver, but the rest of the league moved in a little closer. There are now only five and a half games separating the first six teams.

Medford was incorpor ated as a town on Feb. 24, 1885. (It officially became a city later-on Feb. 6, 1901). Civic groups undoubtedly will get together to plan some sort of a celebration for the municipal birthday. We sug gest that sports groups start planning soon for some sort of event or activities marking the anniversary. Someone already has asked whether men will again be re quested to "grow beards and wear crazy hats." MADDOX DEBUT Terry, Maddox, ex-Mod-ford high baseballer and University of Oregon All American, recently made an auspicious debut for the Eu gene Emeralds of the pro fessional Northwest league. A siory in the Eugene Register-Guard staled, ". . . Maddox dramatically and single-handedly bailed in all four runs ... Saturday night in his first game in a Eugene uniform and carried the Emeralds by the Yak ima Bears . . ." Maddox was signed by the Emeralds a week after being released by the Sa lem Senators. He had re joined Salem after finishing a tour of Army duty at the Presidio, San Francisco. The ex-Medford pitcher and out fielder, playing in left field for the Ems, socked a three run homer and singled in another marker. NO SURPRISE Pitcher Derald Wooton had the eyes of his Grants Pass teammates popping Sunday when he made his bow as a Merchants' moundsman. That he did was no surprise to Med ford baseball followers who watched Wooton pitch in high school here and in semi-pro ball for the Medford Cheney Studs of the former Southern Oregon league. In 1956, in between seasons with Los Angeles (Brooklyn) Dodger farm clubs, Wooton was the leading chucker in the fast SO loop. He obtained unconditional release from the Dodgers in 1958. According to Bill Palmroth in the Grants Pass Daily Cour ier, the Merchants may have lost a ball game to Ashland last Sunday, but "they cer tainly ' found themselves a pitcher in Wooton." Palmroth, who is on the Merchant squad as well as being sports scribe for the Courier, said that "Wooton looks to have a lot of life in his fast ball yet" and that he blends in a. sharp breaking slider. TYLER TO AIR FORCE Ernie. Tyler, ex-Medford high baseball , pitcher, was to leave here today for Port land lo enter the Air Force. After tests and physical exam in Portland, he is to be sent to San Antonio, Tex., for 11 weeks of basic training. Tyler anticipates a four-year lour of duty. He said that he would try to make flight school after his basic training is over. A 1957 Medford grid. Tyler attended Southern Oregon college for a year and has worked for Safe way stores. FILL SOFTBALL GAP In a recent mention of soft ball this department com pletely overlooked the local church league which is pretty well filling the gap this sea son in the, absence of city or Jackson county league compe tition with its Thursday twi light games. Still would like to see a city parks and recre ation department supervised league with play under lights. It's so much more convenient. Attendance at Meeting Urged For Waltonians Members of the Jackson County chapter of the Izaak Walton league are being urged by their board of direc tors to attend the July 13 meeting here at which project data for. the Rogue river ba sin will be presented. The 8 p jn. Monday meeting will be at the county court house.
