Knm am mw m tm m Medford Shuts Out The Dalles 8-6 in Semifinal Scuffle Will Medford high's power ful baseball aggregation make this the greatest school year in Black Tornado sports by wresting the Oregon Class A-1 diadem and bringing to the sQnool an unparalleled triple crown? The Tornado stood $ilst one game away from that possible achievement Tuesday when it thrashed The Dalles here 8 '6 0 in V slate prep semi-final clash. Golden opportunity presents itftlf on Saturdajp night when the Medfordites go all out to add the big school titular diamond tropfty tojthe ones captured in two other sports-in football and basketball. Medford will oppose Park rose in Portland's Multnomah stadium on Saturday in the last game of a tripleheader to determine Oregon champion ships. Class B and A-2 man tles will be decided before the A-1 hassle. Parkrose nicked Hillsboro 5 to 4 yesterday in a semi final ruckus. Four-Hitter Medford, in stretching its season status to 25-1-1, sallied through the Tuesday playoff on the four-hit, nine-strikeout twirling of Jerry Anderson, Uhe stellar reserve perform ance ol wayne xnompson, hard slugging by Cal Dean and Mike Parsons and some fine bat work by Ken Jensen, Dick Ragsdale and Bob Quin ney. It had adequate defense and alertness to opportunity. Thompson, who entered the tussle when Lowell Dean re hurt his ailing shoulder on the first field play of the game, came through in the cleanup batting slot with two hits in four times up and two runsobatted in. Another run scored for Medford on an er ror resulting from a Thomp son rap. Playing in center field, Thompson also threw out a runner who overran second base. O Tr Tornado's initial run was in the first inning when Ragsdale walked, Jensen sin gled and Thompson grounded out. Two counters crossed home in theJthird canto when .Tim Barrv was hit by a pitch, Cal Dean knocked a deep high fly triple to right center field and Thompson socked the ball deep to second baseman Muller. TrS infielder made a great stop and threw to fgst but baseman George Vass pulled his foot off the bag, and the miscue prevented a third Medford out. Five-Run Splurge Medford clung to this 3 to 0 margin through three more Indian batting turns then kicked up a five-run splurge in the sixth stanza to put the frosting on the victory cake. Parsons led off the Tornado uprising with nis aouoie. Quinney singled him home and Ralph Sallee replaced starter Larry Wagaman on the mound for The Dalles with one out. Ray Konopasek forced Quinney out at second mxwn jotuim ctnr,ni nw cut I J base but Barry and Cal Denn walked to load the sacks Ragsdale put down a sacrifice but arid Konoposek was safe on the squeeze play at home. Jensen grounded out bring ing Barry across the platter and Dean romped in when Sallee failed to nab catcher Rich Fandry's throw back to the mound. Thompson hit to score Ragsdale. The Dalles had its best op portunity to tally when the cause was all but lost. An er- ror, a walk and a passed fitul put Indian runners on second and third base with &o out in the seventh inning. Pinch hitter Bob Smith grounded out to end the game. Own Worst Enemies The Indians proved their own xvorst enemies bjQvreck ing two other scoring possi bilities, o In the first inning Muller got on base on an error. First baseman LowellQDean, taking a wide throw from his broth er, shortstop Cal, tagged Mul ler whocrashed into him. Dean, injured on the play, lost the ball. Bob Porter was a strikeout victim. On the last strike catcher Jensen dropped the ball. Porter streaked for first base and Muller headed for second. Jensen threw to Kon opasek to nip Muller and Por ter's jaunt was not allowed because of the force situation with the man on base. The Tornado thereby recorded a double play. In the fourth inning Gary Betts singled. Bill Johnson followed with a hit. Betts rounded secgnd then tried to get back to the base but was out on the throw in by Thompson. Wagaman held Medford to four hits over the first five innings of play and struck out batters eight times. Thompson of Medford and Johnson of The Dalles wew the offly players with more than one hit.
