BIG TAPE HUGE
GAMES TODAY
Albany at Salem, Oxford Parkr
2:30 p. m. . - -
Eugene at Bend. ,.
Leo Edwards, who directs the
destinies of tbe Salem ball team
In the Willamette Valley league.
plans to wear a heavy baa4agex
tape over his face today; it will
completely cover up his mouth, so
that all directions to the ,ball
players will have to be made in
sign language.
Not that - Edward' face has
been injured. The fact is, Leo
may not wear the tape.' but be
said yesterday that, he would.
what tne Senators' boss really
meant was conveyed in another
of his final pronouncements on
the eve of today's game with Al
bany:
"If anybody peeps about one of
the umpires' decisions, it will be
the score boy out on the fence in
center field."
It Isn't necessary to diagram
the situation any further for any
the fane who saw the last
game with Albany here. Edwards,
who usually doesn't say Uoo'- to
any sort of decision on the ball
field, became slightly peeved at
two of them in rapid succession
landed out by one Mr. Wicks of
Wcndling, who was officiating be
hind the plate. As a result, the
Venators forfeited the game to
Albany, and then played it out un
officially, losing 6 to 0.
Leo's promise to wear tape over
lis mouth was just his graphic
ay of letting the fans know that
Ihere won't be any repititlon of
that sorrj- episode. As a matter
ff fact Leo had a right to question
the decision that caused the trou
ble, as it was a question of inter
preting the rules; and it all came
about because Wicks had already
proven himself inefficient, by fail
ing to call a play at third base
when Laird was busy watching
one at first base; but anyway Leo
has promised "never again."
To make it even more certain
that everything will go pleasant
ly, win or lose. Shy Huntington
will be behind the plate today,
and Shy is the sort of umpire who
always keeps the game going
smoothly and indulges In no al
tercations with the players.
Predictions are that the Sena
tors will have plenty of trouble
of a strictly baseball nature on
their hands today. Ralph Cole
man, who pitched that shutout
game a few weeks ago, will be on
the mound for Albany again, and
he has been dishing up tbe same
brand of ball each Sunday since
Last Sunday Coley let down the
Cottage Grove team, wblcb bad
developed into a slugging aggre
gation near the close of Its parti
cipation in the league, with one
run, and he held Eugene to three
runs and shut out Wendling In
the two games before that. He
1-4 allowed only five runs in five
games.
It was claimed by many of the
fans after the fiasco mentioned
above, that Coley never would
have gotten away with a shutout
if it had been a leagne game
throughout. It's a fact that tbe
Senators weren't up to their us
uai ugnt, ana that they came
very near to scoring a couple of
times and might have put it over
if the game had meant anything
- MP mat as It mar. th t.nfr
had the boys swinging futilely a
good share of tbe time, and it
Isn't likely that he will be any
easier to hit this afternoon.
Johnny Beck is slated to start
the game for the Senators, Ed
wards said last night. Johnny
held the Alcos to two runs for five
innings when they played here
then Fortier pasted out a homer
scoring two men ahead of him,
and Russell was hurriedly called
to the mound. The Alcos got one
run off Russell In the remaining
three and two-thirds Innings.
Lineups today will probably be
as follows:

ACE MAKES RECORD
PARIS. July 14. (AP) Run
ning 800-meters a full second fas
ter than the official world's rec
ord for the distance, Serapbin
Martin, French midle distance ace,
gave his country's Olympic stock
a big boost at tbe Colombes stad
lum today.
Finishing alone 30 yards ahead
of the second man, Martin was
forced to make his own pace for
the last 400 meters, yet was clock
ed In the hitehrto unbelievable
time of one minute, fifty and
three-fifths seconds. The world's
record no won the books la 1:51
3-5 set by Dr. Otto Pelitrer of
Germany in 1926.
The record shattering perfor
mance came as a great surprise
as Martin finished in second place
in bis qualifying heat a few hours
before In the slow time of 1.58.
The weather was extremely hot
and the 1924 Olympic stadium
track lightning fast.
LaRoche, a fast 4 00-meter run
ner, started off with Martin in the
final heat as if. competing at bis
usual distance and was clocked as
close to 51 seconds for the first
half of the run with Martin a yard
behind and running easily. La-
Roche here practically collapsed
while Martin went on alone.
sprinting the entire remaining dis
tance.
Martin lost perhaps a chance to
bring the record down to 1.50 flat
when he turned in the stretch to
see how far behind the remainder
of the field was running. Some
Idea of the lead Martin had may
be gathered from the second
man's time. Theo Keller finishing
UTl:S5 4-5.
" No other noteworthy perform
ance occurred on the first day of
the French championships but
Jules Ladoumegne. another
French star, announced he would
try 'for the 1500 meter record to

In their lumber and box making operations this
non-detonating fuel has proved its dependability
SOMEWHERE deep in the cool shaded forests of Northern
: California the camp stillness is broken by muffled murmurs.
'They gradually ascend in note to a rhythmic purr and
break into a smooth continuous roar as the giant Sunkist logging
caterpillars emerge, bringing their awkward burdens of the day
to the box factories.
Here, in the lumbering operations around Hilt and Susanville,
Union non-detonating gasoline is used exclusively and in tank
ear quantities.
Sunkist now correctly known as the California Fruit Growers
Exchange, is considered the most successful co-operative growers'
organization in the world. n,ooo grower members utilize its
facilities. Sales totaled $ 110,000,000 last year. 2,500,000,000
oranges marked S U N K I S T" were consumed
in 1927.
This great organization has "success-tested" Union non-detonating
gasoline in the rigid outdoor laboratory of the West's mountainous
lumber country.
What "Success Tested" Means to You
Of course you can't give the gasoline you use a laboratory test,
but the great institutions who do check results for mileage and
power caa be your yardsticks. These firms have "service-
tested" gasoline. They are successful firms. They not only
use Union for its brilliant performance, but for its absolute
uniformity. The Union Shield is a mark of "Success
Tested" quality for you.

ans." attributed to Gene Tunney
by one of the metropolitan news
papers so affected tbe champion
today that he was unable to dis
play his best form in the training
ring. - --
Gene was so excited" about the
truthless report that be neglected
his road work and was unwilling
to put on the gloves with Harold
Mays and Billy Vidsbeck, bis
sparring partners.
The champion who is training

Tunney looked better against

being controlled and influenced by
so-called 'thugs.'
"It was a cowardly thing and
most unfair to both the boxing
commission and myself. It puts
me In a particularly embarrassing
positioir with Commissioner Wil
liajn A. Muldoon. whom I respect
more than any man I have ever
known, and for whom my affec
tion and admiration is genuine."
After issuing the . statement,
Tunney called attention to the fact
that he had . not boxed in New
York state since 1925 and there
fore could have no first hand
knowledge of boxing conditions in
tbe Empire State.
Tunney has not yet decided how
he will travel to New York on"
the day of the championship bout.
He decided not to engage a hydro
