HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLSOREGON PACE TWO 1- , 3 mi Valley Nine Set to Stop Air Station Medford Crater Confidant Of Defeating Unbeaten Navy Squad; Crippen Start The Medford Craters will Jour ney over to Klamath Falls this Sunday for the express purpose of stopping the powerful naval air station nine and every indi cation shows that they will have a better chance to accomplish this goal than any of the previous contenders. (in th mound for. the Craters will be Steve Crippen who is a veteran right-hander who has been at the game long enough to know almost all the tricks in the book. Crippen has a good curve and possesses a lot of con trol. Those who know, say Steve is one of the smartest hurlers in these parts. However, in case she should get in trouble, South paw Don Safford will be on hand to relieve him. Catching the slants of both pitchers will be Paul Freer also a veteran with long experience. On first for the Craters is Homer Sullivan, who is a lanKy ngni hander and covers the sack well. On second base is Leo Calac, whn U rated the best ball player in the Medford -Camp White league, bar none, caiac triea out with the San Diego Padres and he had a 'contract signed with them when the draft took bun away to the army and Camp White. . Rangy Hubert Klelbas will be at shortstop for Medford. He has a long reach and usually plays a bang-up game. Harold Lange and Don Wilky alternate at third base and general manage to keep the hot corner pretty cool. The outer gardens will be well kept by Irwin Jones in right, Virgil Swanson in. center, and Floyd Lawson in the left corner. In case any of them get into trouble Young Fred Stanmen will be ready to take over. The Craters last week defeat- . ed the Station Hospital 8-4 and by virtue of the win they moved imo a ue lor nrst piace. next week they will meet the WPRC unit to determine the champions of the circuit. From the Corral Fence Doings of Klamath Horseback Enthusiasts, Recounted by VTop Wrangler" There's a awful lull in ridin' and hoss activity. Spec the ladies are takin' time out to fix up their spit curls and chalk their noses, juaxme Cameron is a ridin' and from, what I hear she rides rain or shine cause she just likes it.. Clarice Moon is a doin' most of her hoss stuff out ta. her- ranch. She s a learnin that English style where no body will see her 'til she gets the hang Of it. It looks sorta stylish like, but I'd feel a heap better -in an old stock saddle, but guess I'm Kinda alkalied. Martha Givens (she wus one of the girls who run fer queen) wuz a ridin' and it yes' seems to come natural from colthood. She sets on a hoss as easy as a hossfly ridin' a mule's ear. The word HORSE MANSHIP looks Eood on her. ; The Saddle club's holdin' a meetin' next week and them girls cram plenty o' : grammar Into one settln'. They ask me to be present, reckon they're a plannin' on settlin' who's goln' to Medford fer the Rodeo. Among -all - them women folks I'll feel jist like a burro in a flock of pretty sheep, but I'll go Ki...ine get-togetner so s l can tell-yuh-what's a brewin'. Elmer Chandler from over the California line wuz in town. El. met raises hosses and some fine ones. J spent a day at his ranch and I'll lay odds five hundred head won't over count the whole shebang, which are mostly hot bloods. i' Sheriff Low tuk his hoss out to pasture tother day, but he set and dreaded the ride fer a hour fore ,he struck out. He wuz kinda airin' his lungs with a cou ple of old friends and if he'd felt any better he'd a had a run away. Helen Perry got herself a pair of new boots and has been walk in backwards lookin' at her tracks.

Lipscomb took the first fall with some slugging on the back of Paavo's neck following up with a body press. Paavo came back with a body slam combined with an old-fashioned grapevine hold. In the final round Katonen and Lipscomb were roughing it up in one of the corners when Paavo accidentally hit Wally Moss on the side of his face knocking Moss down. Paavo, be ing the clean type of fellow, leaned down to apologize to the referee. Buck, not having such good manners, calmly kicked Katonen in the ribs and then with a back slam followed by a body press he went on to win the match. At latest reports Wally Moss was still nursing a sore jaw, but he said the only thing he minded about it was that it hurt to eat. The semi-final event was an other wild and woolly event with rough Tony MorelH finally los ing to clever Ivan Jones. Morel li took the first fall in the sec ond round with a body press that followed some vicious eye-gouging. Jones came back pronto to take the second fall with a series of body slams. Tony toon wnat was supposed to be the final fall with a type of leg bold, but Moss was in formed by the crowd that Jones' foot happened to be outside the rope so Wally told Morelli to come back and fight again. But Tony wouldn't come so he was counted out and the fall was awarded to Ivan Jones. The opener saw Bulldog Jack son and Mily Olsen win one fall apiece, each with a pounding hammerlock to go to a three round draw. This match saw bet ter acting among the grapplers than is seen among most of the movie actors. As far as actual wrestling is concerned Mickey Mouse could probably do a bet ter job Box Score WHO? . . . Medford Craters and the Klamath naval air station. WHAT . . . Play a great game of baseball.
