The Athena batters bunched hits In but One Inning to score their lone tally. t The local aggregation, last earning the title of the hltless wonders, con nected with the delivery of EagleB but three times Tuesday. The Dalles, won two games, out-hit both times, with but eight safe Dingles. Eagles, the Athena speed ball merchant, who set The Dalles batters down with but one hit Sunday, was wild again Tuesday, and crowded tho bases when The Dalles hits counted. LA GltANDR NEXT Victory of The Dalles over the Athena Junior leaguers means that The Dalles will play the La Qrande Juniors, winner of the seventh district .title. La Grande probably will go to The Dalles to play a three-game series, although definite announcement has not been made.

I have had clutjl members playing consistently In the 80's, who have utterly ruined their gamo by attempting to add 60 yardtj to tholr tco-shots. A 150-yard drive straight down the middle of the fairway Is far bottcj than 260 yards Into tho woodB or rough. $ Accuracy, rather than distance should be tho aim of every golfer; particularly that vast majority of players whoso only opportunity for the game comes on week-end holt days. A perfect drive Is probably tho most satisfying shot In the game; but It must always bo remembered that a straight drive Is far more to be desired than a long one, and is Important, too, In thut it does much towards putting you In the right frame of mind for your second shot. 8U1AR AND FI.OUU PORTLAND, July 20 ff) Sugar Cane, granulated $4.45 100 lbs.; beet HUgnr $4.20 100 lbs.

Ily Alnn tiould (Associated Press Sports Editor) LOU ANOELEB, July 20 VF) Since tne imai American track and field tryouts, wnere uncle Bam put his tw0 prizo middle distance eggs In the same basket, It has become clear again that this country will have dif ficulty trying to win any foot-racing honors over 400 meters. It took some extraordinary meas ures, pfus the rare fighting spirit of Ray Barbutl, to put over a single winner on the Olympic track four years ago. The chance this year to distribute our middle distance tal ent to the best advantage was "blown" when the feud sprang up over the rival merits of Bill Carr and Ben Eastman. Lost To 8A0 Field Until Carr came all the way across the country to explode the myth of Eastman's Invincibility, the supposi tion was that Big Ben could be counted oh to clean up the Olympic 400 and 800. His defeat, instead of convincing his admirers of the ob vious that he Ib better fitted for the longer distance led to his coach's In sistence upon a return duel. Not only was this lost, In another record raco with Carr, but Eastman was lost to the 800 lineup and both will fight It out again In the 400 here. Eastman's chances to turn the ta bles will bo better on the Olympic track, where tho 400 will be run In lanes. The evidence so far, however, Is that the Pennsylvania star has the "Indian sign" on his Stanford rival. Carr has never been beaten at 400 meters or 400 yards. Until he whipped Eastman, however, he was best known as a member of Penn's crack mile re lay team. Until this spring he had an Idea he would be better off In tho broad Jump. Similarly, Eastman, since reaching his best college stride, has never been pressed at 880 yards or ouu meters, niougn nu tan romp most any route briskly, Canadian Ls Threat ln " loreigne mi inteiy extend Carr and Eastman In. tho Olymplo 400 oro Alex Wilson, of Con- country as a representative of Notre i. j.
