Tillamook High Red and
Black's Opponent in Final
Game of Year
Eight first string players from
Coach Louis Anderson's Salem
high school football squad will
don their padded trousers and hel
mets Saturday afternoon to play
Against Tillamook high, for the
last time so far as representing
the local school is concerned.
They are Backe, captain, and
Blaco, of the backfield; Jones and
Gottfried, the hard fighting tack
les who have formed the nucleus
Of Salem high's attack this year;
iiowne, veteran center, Settle
mier, guard, and Busch, end.
Good Men Coining Up
All this looks bad for the red
and black next season, but some
of the team's followers aren't
wasting any time registering
grief. This group includes, among
others, all of the fans who hap
pened to be out at dinger field
Tuesday afternoon.
On that occasion the Salem high
team bucked up against the tough
est opposition that it has encoun
tered this year with one excep
tion which need not be named to
be" recalled. The unheralded event
Tuesday afternoon was a routine
Scrimmage practice between the
first and second string players.
Counting Coacli Luke Gill, the
second string had only ten play
ers, but the first team found more
difficulty in scoring on this outfit
than it has encountered in any of
the games played on dinger field
this year.
There was only one senior,
Busch, playing on this "scrub"
eleven. All of the rest, presumably
will be back to fill the gaps in the
first lineup next fall; that's why
there's no occasion for gloom.
This outfit included Golden and
Busch, ends; Coomler and Drager.
tackles; . Wright and Ilardman.
guards; Wooley, Elgin and King
In the backfield. Coach Gill filled
In at center.
Tillamook Strong
The first team made progress
against this team, but it would
have been forced to punt repeated
ly if yardage had been kept as in
a game.
As for offensive ability, this
team, of reserves, with the help
of Bowne and Bob Kelly, scored
one touchdown on Eugene in the
Armistice day game.
Nevertheless, that annual occa
sion for a few inward tears, man
ifested outwardly by an unusual
display of '"fight" -on the grid
iron, the seniors' - last game is
billed for Saturday. From all re
ports, the Salem high team will
need that bit of extra effort, for
Tillamook; high, coached by Russ
Rarey, former Willamette' univer
sity star, has won seven games'
this season, defeating Hillsboro
among others. Tillamook has
turned out good teams ever since
5?tey took charge of athletics
there.

Mrs. Fulkerson made her first
visits In September, when four of
the more remote schools were vis

Having swatted Sergeant Sammy Baker to sleep, Jackie Fields,
crack California welterweight, refuses to fight anyone but Joe
Dundee, title holder of the division. Fields has turned down a chance
to battle Young Jack Thompson, San Francisco colored mauler, at
Madison Square Garden. "Give me Joe," says Fields, "I've already
beaten this Thompson person."
Business Slumps While
Bayes-Fox Bout Awaited
There's likely to be a business
depression in Salem today and to
morrow. There usually is just be
fore big events, like presidential
election, and certainly there's an
event billed for Thursday night
which looms up big enough to stop
the wheels of commerce for two
days. Referring, of course to the
fight in which Phil Bayes. Salem's
favorite for many seasons, and
Ted Fox of Independence, who as
pires to deprive the local boy of

ECLIPSE DEPLORED
Lamenting the fact that culture
for culture's sake was little re
spected by the rank and file of
American citizens. Principal J, C.
Nelson of Salem high school call
ed attention to the general trend
of education to a ultilitarlan basis
In an address Tuesday noon be
fore the Salem Kiwanls club.
"Serious intellectual things are
taken almost humorously by many
people today" declared Mr. Nel
son who Illustrated his views by
saying that all too many college
students were ashamed of their
purely academic interests and
veiled the purpose of the univer
sity by making fun of high grades
and other scholastic attainments.
A similar attitude prevails
among adnlt Americans, aaid Mr.
Nelson, who contrasted European
and American ideas of culture. In
pioneer days, the rigors of the
conquest of nature forced Ameri
cans to concentrate their atten
tion on 'things entirely material
but In these days of greater ease,
the habit ha not ceased, in Mr.
Nelson's opinion.
Education can and must play a
large part In correcting existing
attitudes toward human conduct,
said the speaker, who urged tat
greater Interest be paid to the in
tellectual and cultural aspects of
life.

Oordy Brown, star tackle with the
Texas university eleven.
"A line in himself" Is the tri
bute paid Brown. He is a stone
wall defensive player, a wizard at
deciphering the opposition's plays
and nipping them In the bud, and
a battering ram on offense.
One enthusiastic critic who has
fallowed college football in . tha
southwest for many years, rates
Brown as an all-time All-Southern
star.
Another booster for the husky
tackle says: "He was all South
ern Methodist needed to beat the
Army. Had he been in their line
the Methodists would have come
home with the Army's campaign
hat."
Southwestern football fans have
just been given a knotty grid

NEW YORK. Nov. 20. (AP)
Elected national president of
the Amateur Athletic union today
by unanimous vote of the 40th
annual conventitm. Avery Brun
dage of Chicago threw down the
gauntlet to "commercialism in
sporW before he had been in the
chai wo minutes.
In his inauguration speech the
stalwart middle j westerner, na
tional all-around track and field
champion a decade ago, strongly
advocated "extending the hand of
friendship" toward the colleges of
the western conference and of
the national collegiate athletic as
sociation which i long have been
antagonistic to the A. A. U.
Turning first i to the point of
commercialism shortly after he
had been escorted to the platform
by four past presidents of the or
ganization, Brundage declared
that "nowadays prominent ath
letic association which long have
been, antagonistic to the A. A. U.
Turning first to the point of
commercialism shortly after he
had been escorted to the platform
by four past presidents of the or
ganization, Bmmdage declared
that "nowadays prominent ath
letes leaving college and prepar
ing to join an athletic club adopt
an attitude of "how much am I
going to get?'
"This attitude. he reiterated,
"we should frown upon. Commer
cialism in sport should be stamped
out-"
; Adding that even in the build
ing industry with which he is as
sociated men take less interest in
their jobs and jmore in their pay
envelopes than yas once the case,
the new president said, "sport is
the first place we should stamp
out this growing menace in our
national life."
i The election of the former uni
versity of Illinois athlete to the
leadership of the A. A. U. was
itself seen as a move to gain the
cooperation of the middle western
groups. Murray Hulbert of New
York had been president for the
last four years and before that
the office was held by the late
William C. Prout of Boston for
three terms.

STATE GRID TITLE

ASSESSOR DENIES
MAKING STATEMENT
Denying that he made any state
ment about the Red Cross such
as appeared In the Statesman's
"What They Think" column Tues
day and declaring that he had
nothing but the kindliest feelings
toward that organization, Oscar A.
Steelhammer, county assessor,
laid the blame for the statement
on Incorrect reporting; in a com
munication handed that news
paper last night.
"What I did say was that I did
not have anything for publica
tion," said Mr. Steelhammer. " Ex
amination of the records will
show that I have always contri
buted to work of thei Red Cross
and assisted in every way with
music and entertainment and it
is my Intention and wish to give
them my support in the future as
I have in the; past.
"The statement appearing in
the Statesman was entirely erroneous."

Beaver Manager Offers to
Sell Ray French and

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 20.
(AP) Thomas L. Turner, presi
dent of the Portland Baseball
club, Pacific Coast league, came to
Philadelphia unannounced today
and broadcast immediately that he
had two players for sale, "the like
of which have never been seen
in the major leagues."
Within an hour after his five
day trip from the coast Turner
went into a huddle with President
John D. Shibe and Manager Con
nie Mack of the Athletics in the
baseball tower at Shibe park.
"I've got two players who will
win a pennant for any team,"
Turner declared, coming right to
the point of his visit. "They are
Ray French, a great southpaw.
and George Wuestling, a short
stop. Wuestling is better than
Boley of the Athletics, he's better
than Cissell of the White Sox. We
sold Cissell to the Sox tor $125.
000 and naturally we would want
a lot more for Wuestling tut
don't begin to compare Cissell
with Wuestling."
"You bet we won't," said Mr.
Mack. "At least not today."
"Honestly," continued Turner,
"this French is a wonderful pitch
er. He has as much speed as
Grove, more curves and nerve
than Pennock, wonderful control, i
and he's a fighter.
"I'll bet when 1 go to the minor
league meeting at Toronto next
month every major club will make
big offers for this pair but being
a Philadelphian I want the Ath
letics to have first shot at my
players. I have that much civic
pride."
Turner formerly was a pitcher
on the Athletics team and Connie
Mack's son is at present secretary
of the Portland club. These were
Uwo reasons, he said, why he
tipped off Connie Mack that his
two stars were on the market.

To the first
half-million new
Ford owners
TO THE half-million men and wo
men who have received new Fords'
in the last eleven months, there is
no need to dwell on the perform
ance of the car
Yon hare tested its speed on the
open road. In traffic yon have
noted its quick acceleration and
the safety of its brakes. Yon know
how it climbs the hills. On long
trips and over rough stretches you
have come to appreciate its easy
riding comfort. Continuous driv
ing has proved its economy of
operation and low cost of up
keep. This is an invitation to yon to
take full advantage of the service
facilities of the Ford dealer organ
ization so that yon may continue
to enjoy many thousands of miles
of carefree, economical motoring.
The point is this. Yon have a
great car in the new Ford. It is
simple in design, constructed of
the best materials and machined
with unusual accuracy. It is so
well-made, in fact, that it requires
surprisingly little attention. Yet
that doesn't mean it should be
neglected. Like every other fine
piece of machinery, it will serve
you better and longer if given
proper care.
One of the best ways to do thf 4
is to take your car to the Ford
dealer every 500 miles for oiling
and greasing and a checking-up of
the little things that have such a
great bearing on long life and con
tinuously good performance.
Such an inspection may mean
a great deal to your car. To you
it means thousands npon thou
sands of miles of motoring with
out a carewithout ever lifting
the hood.
Ford dealers everywhere have
been specially trained and
equipped to service the new Ford.
You will find them prompt and
reliable in their work, fair in their
charges, and sincerely eager to
help you get the greatest possible
use from your car for the longest
period at a minimum of trouble,
and expense. That is the true
meaning of Ford Service
