Linfield Club Handed Small
End of 9-3 Score With m
Ledbetter Pitching
Taking fall advantage of a
drizzling rain, an Inexperienced
catcher and a pitcher who went
into the box "cold." the Willam
ette university baseball team
trounced Linfield Colle?('s ball
toasera Saturday to 3 in the
opening game here of Northwest
conference play.
The Bearcats proTed better
"webfeet" than the Wildcats, and
fielded every chance perfectly;
at bat they made considerable
headway by damping bants that
caused the Linfield players to
flounder helplessly in the muck.
A number of queer things hap
pened. Deeti, Willamette's first
man at bat. got a single on a bad
bounce, then went on around to
the plate on three passed balls.
The Bearcats ran wild on the
bases, stealing eight in all. Scales
capped the climax by stealing
home standing up while the Lin
field catcher ralnly tried to set
his feet and dive for him.
Linfield Lad GMa
Lucky Circuit Clont
Hostetler of Linfield banged
out a lucky home run into the
millrace in the first inning, and
in the fifth, when Todd took the
mound for Linfield without warm
ing up sufficiently, Cardinal and
Adams pounded out legitimate
homers over the center fielder's
head in rapid succession. Cardinal
scored GUI ahead of him.
Adams and Gibson cut down the
visitors' score by Judicious throw
ing to third and home in the fifth
after taking hard chances. Girod.
who took Adams' place in the
eighth, made a circus catch of a
Texas leaguer.
Ledbetter pitched consistently
good ball, keeping Linfield's ten
hits well scattered. Only five of
Willamette's nine runs were earned.

There's no getting around It,
this guy Jupe Pluvius fa smarter
than Knute Rockne and Miller
Hoggins rolled into one. Ordinar
ily Jupe is ruled out when it
comes to mention in these col
umns, but this time it can't be
helped. For two weeks he kept the
teams in the Oregon-Washington
league from playing. Then, when
moUtare began to get scarce, he
pulled the rear strategy. He or
dered clear skies for five days
through the week, and sared up
his rain for Saturday when it
could do some damage.
Whether he had any left over
for Sunday remains to be seen, but
if not. the Oregon-Washington
league opener between the Salem
Senators and the Longview Forest
Rangers will be played at 2:30 o'
clock this afternoon on dinger
field. The rain Saturday afternoon
and night didn't wet down the
diamond too much for play; in
fact it was a boon if there isn't
any more of it today. And If the
sky is clear this morning, the fans
can rest assured that there'll be
a ball game.
Solons Look Just
As Good On Patter
On paper, the Senators appear
to be on a par with the Rangers
for this opening game. Whether
they will be up to the high Stan
dard set in this league a few
weeks hence, depends solely upon
the support given the local team
At Longview a week ago, there
were 1200 fans on hand to see the
Rangers in action against the Kel
so team; and in addition to that
patronage, Longview put rp a
sizable fund before the season
started.
Kelso Is similarly well heeled
financially, and the other clubs
are not far behind except Salem.
There is still time for thered hot
fans to kick through, but it looks
as though the club will have to
depend largely on gate receipts".
At any rate, Salem will have just
as good representation on the dia
mond as the fans will pay for.
Today's game, if It Is played,
will be the first inter-city ball
game every played on Ollnger
field. Fans are due to find it a
much7 more satisfactory place to
view a ball game than Oxford park
and the club directors believe the
patronage will Increase on that
account. Another thing that is ex
pected to swell the gate receipts
is the stronger competition that
this league, the fastest in which!
Salem has ever held a franchise, i
will afford.
Sport fans who contend that
there's nothing In common be
tween baseball and basketball
should take a look at "Spec"
Keene's baseball team. In Satur
day's game against Linfield, the
entire infield and the battery was
made up of varsity basketball men.
Behind the bat was Ed Cardi
nal. all-Northwest conference cen
ter; the pitcher was "Bud" Led
better. who has played guard on
the Willamette team for three
years. Holding down first base was
George Scales, long shot phenom;
at second appeared Dwlght Adams.
Cardinal's rival for hlgrh point
honors in the last basketball sea
son. The shortstop was "Hoot
Gibson, utility man on the hoop
squad last season, and on the hot
corner cavorted Harold Honk.
who has palled down some all
Xorthwest basketball recognition
as a guard.
Baseball and basketball aren't
very much alike, but the same
basic qualities appear to be neces
sary. Judging from this coinci
dence. To corroborate that Impres
sion. It was noticed that Linfield's
outstanding Inflelder was Druse,
who was mentioned for all-Northwest
honors last season. He played
center on the Linfield team.

Boys Who Fought Draw Will

to Decide Issue
It was Inevitable that Jack
Kentworth and Pat Dundee sliould
get another chance at each other
in the armory ring, to determine
which was really the better man,
after they battled to a popular
draw on the last card, so Match
maker Harry Plant has decided
not to combat fate and has signed
the lads again for Thursday night.
There was mighty little to
choose between them In the pre
vious bout: Dundee did a little
more of the punishing, and Kent
worth did practically all of the
leading. Neither appeared to De
In the best of shape, but next
time they will be at their best
and rqady to settle the matter of
supremacy once for all.
Since that affair Kentworin,
who has been taken in tow by
Buck Perry, has won from Ray
Huffman of Seattle in a fight at
Portland, where he showed the
results of the pointers Perry has
been giving him.
The Kentworth-Dundee fight
will be the semi-final on the card
In which "Red" Millet" of Port
land and "Spud" Murphy of Hub
bard will battle in the main event.
