The game ia called for 2:30 p. m- Fans have been wondering why the legue was inactive, with the exception of one game at Cottage Grove, for the last two weeks in spite of the fact that the weather was reasonably good here and the Oxford Park diamond in use for other games. The fact is that it was not the Senators' - fault nor their choice, that they remaned idle. Albany and Eugene diamond had not been pot in condition, and it was reported ..that they could not be made fit for play because of the recent rains. Meanwhile, Salem, Bend, . Wendling and Cottage Grove fans and club managers be came restice, and have been urg ing that the schedule be arranged bo that they, may proceed. The game between Salem and Albany will be the only league en counter today, as the Eugene ball muddy to work. Bend and Cottage park is- still reported to be too Grove are reported to have ar ranged Independent games. Numbers of fans are expected to accompany the Senators to Al bany. Manager Leo "Frisco" Ed wards has announced that hs line up will differ little if any from that used against Eugene in the opening game here three weeks ago. Johnny Beck will start in the box. The league schedule calls for a game with Wendling here next Sunday. It is probable that the schedule will go ahead regularly from that point en, with the Bend Eugene game at Eugene post poned until Borne future date. The Senators will play the well known House of David whiskered ball tossers here Wednesday af teraoon. and this game.U expected to draw a record crowd, as the fane have not forgotten the bang up game that this outfit' furnish ed a year ago. TEAM BEITS SHS The Salem high school swim minsr team suffered their first de ffcift cf the season last night when they were trounced 40 to 13 by the Multnomah Junior swimming ieam of Portland in the Y. M. C. A. tank before a large crowd. This is the first year that the Salem high school has ever held any swimming meets, and they considered it lucky if they would win only one meet this season. Already they have defeated two of the strongest high school teams by large margins. In one or two more seasons it is believed that Salem will have one of the strong est swimming teams in the state. They are being coached by Louie Anderson, high school athletic . . coach, who has done much to put swimming over at the local high school. 4d-yard, free style Miller. Mult, first; Roberts.

Vewland Associated Press Sports Writer SELMA, CaL, May 5 (AP) Frank Lombardl, a 19-year-old high school boy ran 101 yards to day in 9 3-5 seconds to equal the recognised world's 100-yard dash recokrd and became the outstand ing figure In a meet filled with nerve tingling finishes and stun ning performances. With his brilliant effort, the lithe-limbed athlete from Los An geles high school engraved his name In bold letters alongside those few who have traveled the century In that time since the firs mark was established in 1906. Lombardl's smashing race over shadowed all other events of the California lnterscholastic federa tion track and field meet that saw six state records toppled. He actually ran 101 yardrs because of a yarrd penalty for breaking the gun and his time, clocked by seven officials, is considered as astounding as any ever hung up by an athlete1 of the west. A re check, of the timers revealed that six were snapped at 9 3-5 seconds the seventh showed about 9 5-10. BEincmt MAKES TRUCK WlflFIK If - : - ii .
