The long haired vegetarians looked mighty imposing in the first inning when hits whistled past the ears i of Wayne Barham. falem moundsman, with the speed of rifle bullets. Four ringing blows, one a three bagger by-Hall, accounted for three runs. After that Barham had the vis itors at his mercy, j allowing only three more hits and with spectac ular support especially on the part of Gibson, shortstop, preventing any farther scoring. Salem Team Move Vp Prom Behind N j Meanwhile the I Senators set methodically about picking up that lead. They scored one run In each of tbe first fire innings, then wound up the scoring by get ting four in the next, Qulnn started the process by getting a single; he was forced at second but Lamb ( was safe at first; he "stole second, went to third on & wild pitch and scored on a fielder's choice.

Already these promising young sters have flattened one of the best French pairs, accounting for Henri Cochet and Jacques Brug non on the way to the British championship a few days ago, and It just happens that their type of game is calculated to prove even more deadly against Jean Boro tra and Cochet. the team they are likely to be pitted against In the challenge round. . The style of the Allison. Van Ryn alliance, as described by no less an authority than Big Bill Tilden, is ''a flashing, battering net attack, and It is particularly noteworthy that Tilden, shortly before his. departure for Europe, delivered the . opinion that "only a driving, net rushing attack has a. chance" against such a wonder ful smashing team as Borotra and Cochet. 9 Tilden and Hunter, playing a softer, slower game, failed to stop these two great Frenchmen in the challenge round a year ago. George Lott and John Hen nessey, master lobbers, would be-J feeding Jean and. Henri just the kind of overhead fare they thrive upon. But Van Ryn and Allison, with their slashing, dashing fore court game. 'carry the guns that are calculated to do the most harm. Van Ryn. the dark-haired Or ange, N. J., youth who captained Princeton's tennis team last year, and the blond Allison-former In tercollegiate champion from the University of Texas, form one of the greatest potential doubles pairs this country has ever put together. Allison is ranked fifth and Van Ryn sixth among America's lead ing players, and In single combat neither youth can - hold much hope of beating any of the first three Frenchmen.: but some strange touch of tennis necro mancy multiplies their strength when they are combined as a doubles team. They, played to gether some last season, but on their performances were ranked only fourth among the country's leading pairs. Hennessey and Lott, Lott and Doeg and Tilden and Hunter all out-ranked them. and It was not until the Wimble don tournament that perfection on team work was achieved. The victors assignment now Is to win the Davis cop doubles, an accomplishment which would make it possible for the Ameri can forces to win back the cup with only an even break In sin gles.

Independence, four rounds. ah rast, little ieiiows, not a fighter in the bunch weighing more than 135 pounds; that's the unusual card that Harry Plant, lo cal matchmaker, tffers to the fans tonight. What Ted Fox may be able to do to Benny Pelz, is of course the question that looms large. Ben ny won a decision when they last met in the ring here. Some fans, laudably loyal to Fox. claimed he got a raw deal. The majority saw it the way the referee did. It's all a matter of "its" and 'buts." Fox is faster and has that distinct advantage in reach which has meant much to him in every fight. But if note the combination events shape them selves alon? certain lines which are not beyond the realm of prob ability, Pelz stands to win. Fox can outbox and outspeed the Portlander, If the fight pro ceeds along1 conventional lines. If something happens to Pelz , that causes him to "see red," then look out. When Pelz gets properly stirred up, he's a whirlwind;" Granting that Pelz was en titled to a decision in the last fight. Fox's hope of victory de pends largely upon, the claim that he is in better condition than he was on that occasion. A glimpse at his physique and his actions in training points to the conclusion that he is in much better condi tion. Whether that is enough, no body can say until the fight is well under way. If earnestness , will turn, the trick. Fox ought to win. He has his heart set on winning this fight and getting a chance at Eddie Thomas, which is the prospect held out to him by the match maker. . Plant completed his card Wed nesday afternoon by signing up Battling Firpo, well known here, for a four round curtain raiser against Danny Moore of Indepen dence, who is also no mere name to local fans. Tom Loutltt v be the third man in the ring for all bouts. SEATTLE, July 24. (AP) An ever-smlllng slightly-built young man from Spokane, fresh from a spectacular 'rise to tennis fame in eastern Washington and Idaho, sounded a serious challenge for the Washington state tennis championship today when he con quered the brilliant Danny Lewis of Seattle in the third round of play here. Worth Oswald, a good looking youth, who recently captured the inland empire, Idaho state and Northwest college titles, disposed of Lewis after the most thrilling match of the tournament. Oswald won the first set 6-4, and ! then staged a terrific battle to gain the second set 12-10. Only a few out of town players failed to advance through the third round. Kurt Berndt, seeded No. 1, star from San Francisco, eliminated Joe Livengood, Seattle, 6-3, f-1 Berndt was a little slow in warm ing up but blazed through the sets easily after once getting started Laverne Fator in early Jaly led metropolitan Jockeys with a re cord of 32 firsts, 16 seconds and 13 thirds for 12S races. Salem Armory 1 r The Fight the Public Demands TED FOX vs. BENNY PELZ 2S Botmtia of Boxing Scheduled SNAPPY The Armory will bo the coolest place in town, with Nine Big Electric Fans in Action i And Eehhy m I DOCKS Hurt vuomments Bj CURTIS WROXG AGAIX! Cleverest thing: wa saw In the House of David game was Lyle Bigbee stopping a hit with his feet, cutting it down to a single when otherwise it would probably have been a triple. And the queerest was the .play in th third, when Dew hirst, 225 pound left fielder, came tearing in to cover home plate-, while both teams stared mt him completely mystified. It was this way. Hafenfeldt hit one to Faust, the shortstop, and Heckman at first base let the throw get away from him, Ha fenfeldt streaking to second. Deal, the catcher, chased the ball and threw it in the general di rection of second base, but it went on through to Dewhirst. He threw it beak into the diamond, Hafenfeldt by this time . being on third. Deal was still out be hind first base and nobody came to cover the plate; nobody saw it was nnguarded except Dew hirst He sprinted a fast 75 yards to save the day. but it wasn't ne cessary because Hafenfeldt and the coacher at third. GUI, hadn't noticed the lack of alfalfa around home plate either. Bat Hafenfeldt scored after all, on a hit. Dewhirst Is said to be the son of. a former California superior court Justice, which probably ac counts for his quick diagnosis of the situation. He's only 19 years old, but he has one of the longest beards in the outfit. That homor of Billy Sulli van's looked as though it never would stop. I Hoot Gibson had his biggest day of the season In the field, handling eleven chances,' most of them hard ones; successfully. He dropped a fly ball, but staved off the prospect of having an error chalked up against him. by throwing out a runner at second base on the play. Bet this catcher Deal has m lot of respect for our twilight lnague receivers, who face that blinding sun every night of the sceason. The sun didn't seem to bother Barham, Quinn, Bigbee and Sul livan when they came to bat in the sixth. With nine electric fans blowing fresh air. pretty decorations ov erhead and a brand new canvas underfoot, the fang won't know the old armory tonight. The "no smoking" rule ought to fit in appropriately with the new scenery, which caused its adoption. There'll be a recess for the smokers, giving them an opportunity to asphyxiate them selves downstairs. Our "mental movies" nearly got us in wrong Wednesday. Fel lows who had an argument about how Jack Johnson won the hea vyweight title, called us up and we said he won it from Jeffries. That was because the Jeffries Johnson fight left Its impression and we had momentarily forgot ten Jeffries previous retirement But we corrected the statement before the line was disconnected. We pick Benny Pelz to win or draw. OVER OUD LAD -OAKLAND, Calif., July 24.
