Friday Night
By SHIRLEY FLYNN
A large ciowd of spectators wit
nessed some superb driving skill at
the Roseburg Speedway Friday
night and for the first, time this
season saw near collisions and no
major mishaps.
While there were no flip-overs i
or crack-ups, there was still plenty
of excitement as drivers pushed
their throttles to the floorboard and
drove at a furious pace to snare the
coveted lead positions.
the third heat provided an un
usual finish. John Wilverding (6)
moved into the lead on the first
lap and maintained it to cross the
checkered flag. Pushing him all (he
way were Lyle Wescott (99), Jack
McCoy (M2 Medford), and Whitey
Dage (77).
McCoy took the second spot from
Wescott on the sixth Ian. Just a few
feet before the finish line Wescott
nudged McCoy, who spun 'about,
but was close enough to spin across
the flag in a reverse position to
claim second place. Nearly nosing
him out was Wescott with Dage
right against his bumper.
McCoy Start Again
McCoy, winner of the A main
last week, snared top honors again
Friday. He took the lead from Wil
verding on the ninth lap and held
it. Jim Standley (22), Art Pollard
(87) and Lou Donelan vied for
third with Standley coming out on
top. Wilverding held to' second.
Tenth car in an 11-car pack was
Leonard Kress (91) who moved into
first place on the seventh lap of
the o mam and started lapping the
rear of the pack by the 13th lap be-
tore roaring down tne nomesiretcn
to top money.
Jack Beavers (4) coming from
the rear of the pack to rest in sec
ond had the spot sewn up until the
zoth lap when his motor heated.
Beavers shifted into high gear hop
ing to maintain his hold on second
place and did until the blue flag lap
when he was forced to pull into the
pits. This let John Barron (37),
who'd been closing the space be
tween them fast, finish second
Chuck Roberts (18 Cottage Grove)
was third.
Pollard Sirs Pace
Standley took the A trophy and
Barron the B trophy. Art Pollard
clocked fast time for the evening
with 17.77 seconds. McCoy of Med
ford and Ray Lawrence of Cottage
Grove have joined the local asso
ciation and will be teen here often.
Winning a Pitmen's Race of ten
laps was Don llein (22). Placing

Eddie Yost Threatens

saulting Babe Ruth's record.
Not the Babe s unequalled 60
home runs of 1927 but Ruth's 170
walks in 1923.
No other ball player has receiv

'Portland' Dirty Word Around Seattle Baseball Fanatics
By JACK HEWINS
SEATTLE Wi There is one
word around the Seattla Rainier
baseball campus that is considered
sbmewhat dirtier than others.
They pronounce it "Portland."
The Portland Beavers, to put it
mildly, have treated the Rainiers
with disrespect. The first time the
two teams collided this year the
Portlands clubbed the Seattles out
of first place. Knocked 'em all the
way down to third in the Coast
League standings.
When they met again with the
Rainiers still third. Portland left
them one full game farther from
the lead. Back in front when they
tangled again, Seattle dropped
three straight but kept the No. 1
spot because Los Angeles was
losing, too.
Portland could only hold Seattle
to a 2-2 split in their most recent
series but softened up the Rainiers
so tailend Vancouver could shellac
'em two out of three and Los An
geles could lower the boom in three
games out of four.
From their roost in first place
with a game and a half margin,
Seattle skidded three games back.
Is that any way to treat a cham
pion? The chief spokesman for the
firm of D. Soriano, Inc. (reason
able rates on baseball and boat
pilotage), had this to say about
the Portland-Seattle situation:
"Jinx? Phooey!"
It was an opinion shared by
Tommy Holmes, who lately man
aged the Beavers. "We just
seemed to get our game together
against Seattle," he said. "Our
! pitching was at its peak and our
team hitting was adequate. Sure,
NlVit TOO

It must be the Pacific North
west heat spell .. . That's the
only way Friday night's North
west League action can be ex
plained. First the Wenatchee Chiefs
blasted the Tri-City Braves 11-7,

ted an umpire in the rear with
his knee. To add the appropriate
note to the evening's festivities,

rained out.
In the Wenatchee mismatch, the
hometowners were behind 7-6 go

C'.iefs put on a five-run rally
which included a triple steal
which caused a Tri-City squabble.
Umpire Russ Fisher called
Herb Anderson safe on a steal
at home plate as two other run
ners advanced to engineer the
multiple steal. Tri-City started
haranguing the' umpire who
turned his back on manager Pries
and bent over to sweep off home
plate.
The temptation was too much
for Pries who promptly kne?d
Fisher in the rear. The umpire
threw Pries out of the game. But
the manager refused to leave and
finally was led away by his play
ers as the beef continued. Before
it ended, Tommy Perez joined his
manager in the showers.

Portland series. "Wait,' they
drooled, "until our hitters get a
chance at that short left field
fence." Unhappily, when the Rain
iers arrived at Multnomah Stadi
um they found their hosts already
had the range and the balls that
went over the barrier were belted
by Beavers..
"We," one ecstatic Portland fan
yelled at Rainier boss Luke Sew
ell, 'got the whammy on you."
