Qrlm determination to cinch the
Willamette Valley leagu title at
Bend today or" die, fignratiTely
speaking, In the effort, was read
able on the faces of the Salem
jSyiator ball players as they
atowed spiked shoes and bats Into
automobiles and - crowded them-
selres Into the remaining space for
the long trip across the Cascade's,'
Saturday afternoon.
Since there Is general agree
ment that todsy's game will de
cide the first half title, a consid
erable number of fans hare start
ed for Bend and mow were plan
ning to leare in the wee sma'i
hours this morning, despite the
fact that the game is to be played!
nearly 200 miles from home.
Incidentally the outcome of this j
game will probably determine
whether the Senators decide to go
through the second half. Con
trary to rumor, the boyi haren't
decided to quit when the first half
is oyer; neither are they certain
of going ahead. If they! win the
first half title it la considerably
better than an eren chance that
they will continue. 1
Not that the Senators will quit
If they lose and go on If they
win: that Isn't the issue. The
whole problem is financial, and
the players figure If they Can win
the first half, the support will be
big enough to take them through
the rest of the season, whereas It
nrobablr wouldn't be sufficient if

US ASSOCIATION
Tourir
Hi LBIB
Following is the ranking of
present members in the Salem
Tennis association, for the ladder
tournament which will be the bas
is for selection of the team for
intercity matches.
The ranking is not based neces
sarily upon ability, but on last
year's ranking of players who are
now members, anr the order in
which new members signed up
Any player may challenge the one
next above him, and displaces him
if victorious; but a defeated play
er may not challenge the same
man again for two weeks.
The present rankings are:
1. Jack Minto.
2. French Hagemann.
S. Adolph Greenbaum.
4. Ralph Curtis.
5. Irl McSherry.
6. R. W. Tavehnor.
8. Theodore Paulus.
9. Charles Graham.
10. Fred Thielsen.
11. R. R. Lyons.
12. R. H. Lull.
Persons -familiar with the rela
tive ability of the players predict
that the rankings will change rap
idly, as the last three players are
among the best. Thielsen war
ranked so near, the end because b
was not ranked last year, and the'
last two men 4n the list are nev
members this year.

SCHULTE
With the Cardinals clamoring for major attention by threaten
ing to duplicate their pennant-winning performance of 1926. -St.
Louis fane are finding it none too easy to recognize the brilliant
work of the Browns this season. But they're lending an ear to Dan
Howley's claim that he has a potential world's championship com
bination. Sam Gray, former Athletic pitcher, has been a consistent
winner. He. like the other Browns' boxmen. has been receiving
good fielding and batting support from such youngsters as Schulte
and Kress. r"
Close Matches Feature
Wimbledon Net Tourney
WIMBLEDON, Eng., June 30
(AP) Three of the most bitter
five-set battles the great crowds
of Wimbledon ever have seen to
day put Big Bill Tllden, ace of
American courts, and two of
France's great triumvirate, Rene
La Coste and Jean Borotra, into
the "final eight" of the unofficial
world singles championships.
In marked contrast to the fierce
strife on the men's courts. Miss
Helen Wills, now definitely .ac
cepted as "cannonball" to her
British public, propped three
"courtesy" games to Mrs. M. Hol
croft Watson, steadiest of the En
glish women, before settling into
stride. and qualifying for the semi
finals of the women's singles by
scores of 6-3, 6-0.
British crowds seldom have
seen Tllden so worried as he wan
today In eliminating- Pierre Lan
dry, young Frenchman, 6-4, 2-6.
2-6, 6-1, 6-4. Rarely, too, was La
Coste, French stylist and Ameri
can champion, faced a game that
so matched his own and bothered
him so much as the stroking of H.
W. Austin, youthful Englishman.
La Coste won only after Austin
virtually collopsed in the final set
from exhaustion, losing by scores
of 6-4. 6r4, 6-8, 1-6, 6-2.
Only after a terrific struggle
was Jean Borotra, third of the
French musketeers, able to repulse
the dogged stroking of another
youth,! Pat Crawford, of Australia.
And again the verdict rested on
the outcome of the fifth set, with
the bounding Basque of the courts
triumphant 3-6, 6-4. 6-2, 7-9. 6-3.
NEW GOLF CLUB
WILL BOOST FEE
The Salem . Golf club directors
voted at a meeting last week to
raise the initiation fee after today.
The Increase will be considerable,
it has been Indicated, and any per
sons wishing to get in before it
takes effect, are urged to get In
touch with one of the club's offi
cials today. The membership has
reached a total of 110,
Six greens on the new course
have been built, and the fairways
for the first nine holes are clear
ed and ready for plowing. Offi
cers of the club are Ercel Kay,
president; Graham Sharkey, vice
president and secretary, and D. W.
Eyre, treasurer. Directors are Kay.
Don Young. Jack;. Elliott and Dr.
J. Shelley Saurman.
Ananias certainly was born too
soon. Just think what a princely
3alary he could get nowadays
writing real estate ads for boom
towns.

DETROIT, June 30. (AP)
Morgan Taylor, the lanky, blonde
