Legislators Play Baseball In Best Of Weird Style BY ESTHER GEDDES SALEM Take me out to the ball park and give me two teams made up of the stalwarts of the legislature and the lobby contin gent. Take the governor of the state and dress him up in an uni pire's outfit and place him be hind home plate with two perfect ly enormous state policemen to protect bim from the possible threat of jeering fans. Ulve me a coach at third oase dressed in a frock coat and preacher a hat and carrying a brief case and law books none other than the at torney general of the state of Ore son. Oh yes, don't forget to sta lion the state treasurer behind the pitcher to keep an eye on all pro ceedings and be sure everything is on the up and up. "Play ball" stirred an assort' ment of feelings in the hearts of the rather scattered spectators at Waters Field in Salem, Thursday. There was some good-natured jib Ing at the heterogeneous uniforms hastily gathered together anJ largely held tjgether with safety pins, etc. Nothing added sucn a professional touch to a fairly de cent uniform as to have it com pleted with a pair of dress shoes and short silk socks. Thursday wis a good day to get the state house hermits out for fresh air. The schedule this week has been evr.n more strenuous than usual, With committee meet ings at 8 in the morning and after morning and afternoon adjourn ment and during the noon hour and an evening schedule which for one Senator ran like this: Mon day evening, Judiciary Committee until 11:30; Tuesday evening, ses sion of the Senate to finish the day's docket; Wednesday evening meeting of the Assessment am Taxation committee lasting far in to the night, and other such com mittee meetings dated for Thurs day and Friday, it was almost crucial to have a break in the week. The audience love It when the girl pitcher brought in by the lob byists proved to be such a suc cess that the legislators held a caucus and the governor enounc ed that by special legislative en actment she hid been made a member of the forty seventh leg islative assembly and would now pitch for the legislative team, too. A good bit of monkey business like numerous efforts to slide the second base ba2 half way down the line to third base so the run would be shorter, kept the attention diverted from anything that might be lacking in real pro fessional skill. .Nc one kept track of the errors and iome bitter spec tators remarked caustically that no one kept track of the score. Others conjectured that the news papers had already written up tne game and when the score reached the size they had reported the an nouncer was instructed to ignore all runs from 'hen on. Douglas County legislators wore represented on the team by Sen. Geddes, who quite accidentally made a hit and ran in a score for the legislators. Representa tives Jackson and Amacher were loyally boosting from the stands as well as the five little Geddes girls who organized their own cheering section with a good rous ing, "Yeah, Daddyl" Job's Daughters Seat 2 Douglas Residents Two Douglas County resldeuts were installed as state officers at the 29th annual session of .the grand guardian Council of Oregon.
