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"
