Jr. other words, Gehrig's lack of the defensive polish and speed that characterizes Terry's play Is not sufficient to off net his bigger threat at the plate. The Datting averages do not show an advantage for either as he was at his peak in 1930, when he also batted .401. Gehrig's fielding figures for 1931 32 were slightly better than those of Tcrry. measured by the mechan ical yard st ick of chances accepted, but Memphis Bill must still be given the defensive edge.

In 1923. and -each of whom has Just rounded out ten seasons in the major leagues. For the nine-year period up. to. this year, each showed a hitting ago of .342.

Starting June 1, 1933. Gehrig has now finished playing 1197 consecu tive games, exclusive of 10 others In four world's series. Barring an ! accident he figures to pass Everett fccoits world record of 1307 games ome time around the first of next August. Gehrig has led tho American league four times In the vital de partment of runs batted In. within the past seven years. Only Ruth. Simmons and Foxx, in separate years, have topped the Yankee cleanup clouter In this respect. Terry, of course, is one of the most dangerous batsmen In baseball but over the stretch of the past half dozen years his records are not so Impressive as those of his Yankee rival.

Most Enterprise People Scoff At Wet Field Story Frorr. al! reports the last two days. Enterprise people In general repudiate thc charges of some voiced there that the La Grande High school gridiron j was purposely muddied for the game 1 here last Saturday. j Among the latest to voice an opin ion, is A. B. Amonini, of an Enterprise , furniture firm, and a former coach ' ! of Enterprise teams. Incidentally. 1 when he was E. H. S. grid mentor, 1 .the. Savages were rated, as one of the ( trickiest teams In Eastern Oregon, and he made life miserably uncertain for other teams with his cross -crosses, trick, passing attacks, etc.. and pulled many a game out of the fire through , use of surprise plays. Mr. Anion! no's coaching ability Is well remembered throughout this district, although it has been some time since he handled the reins. r j The Observer received the follow ing letter from "the former coach this morning: , "I was Indeed greatly surprised to read the article in the Observer re garding the 'wetting of the La Grande field and also the matter covering the 'cleats,' t "Now why anyone should as much . a thing ls beyond me.

"I have heard the game discussed upon the streets but did not hear anything of that nature, and I want to assure you for myself and the majority of the good people of Enter prise, that what Mr. Woodie did. to put the field In shape for the game. ! was done for the best Interests of all concerned. We all feel that we , should not be Judged for what a few , have- done, and I am also sure ' At the ones that felt that way. may ave been in a poor frame of mind after the result of tho game and really did not mean just what was said.
