MEDFORO SPIRIT
AGAIN CROPS OUT

With a sportsmanshlp that would
do credit to q four-year-old and an
outburst OF genuine Medford spirit.
Captain Shorty" Miles OF the Med
ford ball team yesterday refused to
proceed with the game when de-
cision had been made against his
club. The play In question was In the
first OF the fourth. when Medford
batter knocked a three-base hit but
failed to touch first base and was
put out. The game would probably
have been resumed but for the crab
bing" OF Miles. who has major asset
In his lung power and who had been
caught asleep Of first by Pernoll a
few minutes before.
The first three innings OF the game
were played in big league style, both
teams playing fine ball. The outs
were made in quick succession and
no runs were scored until the third,
when, after a single and two sacri-
fees had placed a man on third,
weckler laid on the ball for two
bases. bringing in the first run. In
the first OF the fourth, Pernoll, with
one out, managed to catch Miles on
first. A player then got to second
and when the next batter came up
and was put out for falling to touch
first, the Medford team showed the
yellow streak and marched of the
field. II was unfortunate that the
incident occurred. for even the Med
ford umpire acknowledged that the
decision was fair and that the Med
ford player might have touched the
bag II he stuck his foot out far
enough" Twohy Riggs, base umpire,
was on the spot when the play oc-
CURED, but evidently the Medford
players had had enough Of Pernoll.
Umpire Miller, OF Medford. award
cd the game to Grants Pass by a
score OF Q to 0, which is In accordance
with the rules.
It was reported today that Curly"
Wilson and several other Medford
players, disgusted with Captain Miles
action. have turned In their uniforms
and quit the 'Medford team as long
as Miles has anything to do with It's
management or direction.
