TO ELIMINATE PLAYOFFS ' WTLLIAMSPORT, Pa. (UPII- Rankin Johnson, president of the Eastern Baseball League, Wednesday announced plans to eliminate the post-season Shaugh nessy playoffs this year. Johnson termed the playoff a "hazardous, costly venturo" and lacking fan interest during tlie early fall. The Klamath Union Pelican baseball will get its first real test of the season Saturday when the Whitebirds travel to Rose burg to take on the Indians in a doubleheador non - conference meeting. The first game is slat ed to begin at 1 p.m. Coach Bill Mansfield's Pelicans will be toting a 4-1 record into the game with the four victories coming in succession. Roseburg had its first three scheduled games rained out and was to play at Grants Pass Tuesday in a single game and at home to day against the Cavemen. So the Pelicans will have a slight edge in that department. Coach Mansfield has been ill nd missed the Weed game Tues day in which the Pelicans bested the Cougars, 8-4. He may not go to Roseburg w ith the team so as to make sure to be well by Tues day when the Pels host Grants Pass in the second Southern Ore gon Conference action. Assist ant Coach Wade Patterson will handle his chores. The Whitebirds are co-leaders i league play with a 2-0 record due to the double no-hitters by Gary Benson and Rich Jackson against Ashland. Tlie other co- leadcr is Crater. The Comets eased by Grants Pass in a pair Tuesday, 3-1 and 7-6. Medlord is 1-0 with a 7-2 win over Ash' land. Crater probably will take the league lead this weekend when they go to Ashland for a twin-bill and Medford is at Grants Pass for a doubleheader. The probable starting lineup for the Pelicans will be Dave Johnson behind the plate with Jay Paxton and Vcrn Petrick in reserve. John Gray, the leading hitter on the team with a siz zling .667 average, will open at first. Lanny Guycr, beginning to come around on his hitting, will be at second. Mike Hitching, still lacking some glove ability at shortstop but with a strong arm and a heavy stick, will be the shortstop. John Pansotto has been ill the past few days but may be ready to go at third base. If he isn't ready it will be Marv Yunck who took over against Weed and More than 200 feathers make up tnc Ian of the peacock.

ECCLES MOTORS 606 South Sixth had a good day at the plate. Larry Binney, who has been hitting the ball well, will open in centerfield. Larry Smith also was ailing some Tues Jay and was re placed by Rick Horn who also did a good job. Those two may alternate. Tom Osa will be in right field and he also has been wielding a big bat. Benson and Jackson undoubted ly get the starting assignments on the mound. Thev will be backed up by good looking fresh man Bob Moore, Jim Jackson, Rich Grow and Ron Yunck. The pitching staff could be one of the strongest in the league. The Pelicans will return home to engage Grants Pass in a twin-bill Tuesday in SOC action and this should be a good dou bleheader. The league schedule has doubled this year with each team playing the others on a home-and-home doubleheader bas is. This gives the Pelicans a good shot at the crown with their pitch ing strength. The race figures to be one like tlie basketball race which had four very well-balanced teams. Medford is the defending champion and Klamath Falls was in second last season, a game be hind tlie Tornado. Lumber Barge Run Aground EUREKA, Calif.
