P age 4 T he CHEMAWA AMERICAN T 'HLETICS Arlee, second and Scott, third in broad jump. The relay was won by Chemawa with Hunter, Arlee, Dog eagle and Olney as runners. Time: 1 minute, 36.8 seconds. BASEBALL HAZEL GREEN INVADED BY CARPENTERS Erratic fielding in the game with Woodburn cost Che- mawa’s baseball team its last apparent chance for a championship in the Willamette Valley Interscholastic League. The Reds lost to Woodburn 5 to 3, Wednesday, May 10. Vivette pitched exceptional ball, limiting Wood burn to three hits and fanning 12 batsmen, including four in the first inning, but his outfield mates were off. On May 17, our pill tossers defeated West Linn 10 to 2 in a seven inning game here. The perfect ball playing in the field was probably due to the shifts that were made in the line-up. Viv ette went to first base, Palmer to second and Wilder to third, Bobb was transfered to the catching job, w’ith Hatch and Jones new faces in the outfield. The latter two made a big showing in both field work and batting. Thetwirlers, Seltice and Spencer, showed exception al hurling, allowing West Linn only two hits in the seven innings. On Friday, May 19, our baseball nine defeated the Molalla string in a hard fought game to a close score of 7 to 6. Vivette pitched the first four and Seltice the last three innings. Both did splendid work in the box. Jones hit a homer with a man on base, giving the Reds a 2 to 1 lead in the first inning. A tight game followed with a series of hits and runs on both sides but at the end of the seventh Chemawa was still lead ing Molalla by one point and came out victorious. On Friday, May 19, the carpenters laid aside their planes, hammers and board strechers and gleefully made their pilgrimage to Hazel Green Park to enjoy a whole day of play. The boys found amusement in horse shoe, baseball, swumming and consuming ham burgers. In the great tournament of barn-yard golf Leonard Vivette lost his hamburger, as well as his title to “Medicine Man” Archambeau. Mr. Mason the flashing first baseman, sprained his finger in the twenty- third inning of the big baseball game of the day. The boys enjoyed the picnic and thank their instructors who made the event possible. Achievements of which the carpenters boast: Uriah “Red” Alexander has completed a cedar chest, and is it spiffy looking? The boys are at present working on a baby crib for Mr. Showalter’s young heir.
