THURSDAY, A UP. 14, 1PM PACK FOURTEEN HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON s PSyonk on State 1 n Trip 0n 3M BOB RKDKEV explains his fail ure to stay with the San Francisco 49era with the simple statement: "Too many veterans on the lob . ." I'm told reliably that Redltey ac tually didn't get a Rood chance to show what he could do. He was In two scrimmages, one the second day on the Job when probably most all the candidates didn't look particularly good and the second time Just the day be fore the squad-cut. Right now Bob is "hanging around Klamath Falls" Just In case he's picked up by another professional lootball club. Kedkey's missing the profession al grid boat this season certainly wouldn't mean the end of his foot ball days. There's plenty of seasons ahead and Bob is young, strong and willing. I still think there's a professional football career ahead for Rugged Robert. . One more year at Oregon State would have helped. THE STORY on the Bill's Place-Central Point Softball game Tuesday night on Conger Field jwobably omitted the real higb- estimated the crowd at 500. a fabulous number considering soft ball here usually draws not many more than the wives of the players and casual droppers-by. It's a good sign that Softball Is alowly, but surely, returning to Its own, SUGGESTION to race fans: Don't miss Sunday's hard top show. A special event may be cooked up, involving two of Klam ath Falls well-known personages, that will probably be worth the price of admission in usen. JUST WHEN the fight business BataH n talfA BilTTl Sembl&TlCe Of order, kapoot. It's back where It was wtien losing ugms meam onuu at the heavyweight title. Managers of Rocky Marciano and Champion Joe Walcott can't get together on terms. Far this reason, it s a better than food chance the fight won't come off in September. Fans may be fed a Layne-Wal-cott fight. Or the IBC (the big Happy Monopoly called the Inter national Boxmg Club) may send a British humpty-dumpty. Johnny Williams, whose name doesn't mean anymore than Joe Blow, against Jersey Joe. It's mv guess the IBC boys are saving the Marciano-Walcott fight for the big money shot of 1953, probably June. Marciano and his handlers are probably not too sad over the prospect of waiting another 10 months. Walcott, already hoary with age as far as fighting goes, la at the stage where 10 months won't help. This, of course. Is conjecture based on news stories that seep out of the IBC high places. But, Judging by past perform ances of the big wigs who run the fight game, rd say tt was fairly accurate conjecture.. And again, I hope I'm wrong, because I'd like to see the only logical fight, a Walcott-Marciano ruckus, materialise- In September, BRIEFS FROM the sports file: Far West League resurrection fever Is high in Medford. accord- lag to word from Dick Jewett, Mall-Tribune sports editor . . . but there, like here, the optimists are mainly big league scouts . . . fans are hopeful but not optimistic, nor are persons who have dealt here and In Medford in the baseball business . . .

HAS OWN CAMP DENVER Wl Vince Boryla, former Noire Dame basketball star who plays pro ball with the New York Knickerbockers, has his own boys camp here. His wife Is a registered nurse at the camp. The giant courtman has been playing handball to strengthen his right knee which was injured last season and kept him from the National Basketball Association playoffs. CP Wins Second Tilt. 12-4 Central Point will be Southern Oregon's hope in the state softball tournament that opens Saturday in MIU City while Klamath FaUs will have to wait another year to bid for that honor. Central Point made it two in a row over Bill's Place last night on the winners' diamond by a 12-4 count. ( The Pointers beat Bill's Place, 10-6. Tuesday night here with a seven-run rail)' in the seventh In ning. Last night Central Point picked the fifth inning to stage its up rising. EIGHT RUNS Eight runs poured across the plate in this frame, to nullify Klamath's third inning when they cashed in on four runs to tie the score. Pitcher Darrell Sorenson hit a three-run homer in the third inning alter Dan Derrah and Bill Lawlor had walked. Jack Kemnilzer tripled In the fourth run. EARLY SCORING Central Point scored two runs in eacbthe first and second innings before Bill's Place found its punch in the third. But Central's fifth-inning bar rage iced he game and saw Bill's Place send in Gus Gustvang for Sorenson on the mound and Roy Harris for Catcher Jim Derrah when Derrah was sidelined after being clobbered on the head by one of Gustvang s. warmup pitches Line score.
