April 13.r-(AP) It's fair and warmer along the baseball front for the grand opening .of the major league sea son tomorrow. Far from feeling any pinch of the times, the 1 American, and National league clubs has mar shaled reinforcements, increased the wages of many of their star performers and otherwise set the stage for a gala getaway as well as a brisk campaign and big busi . nesa all rummer long. . Approximately 230,000- fans ' are expected to turn out for the eight opening games, prepared to glTe the great American sport an appropriate sendoff and attack the - fresh supplies of peanuts, popcorn and soda pop with pa triotic enthusiasm. . HooTer to Toss . - First Honehlde ' President Hoover heads the list of notables who will figure In the opening ceremonies, featured, ac cording to time-honored custom, by formal parades, floral tokens and the hoisting of flags. The president, -who saw the Philadelphia Athletics clinch the world's series in the final game last October, will be off-hand to watch Connie Mack's champions start the defense of their title against the Washington Senators, generally regarded as their out standing rival for the American league honors this rear. There will be no special attrac tion, except the annual debut of the one and only Babe Ruth, but the New York Yankees and Bos tdn Red Sox expect to draw an opening day crowd of 50,000 to the Yankee .tadium. This was the top figure in advance estimates for all 'openers. More than 40,000, including Commissioner Landis, may see -Roger Hornsby and his Chicago Cabs start the National league campaign against the Pittsburgh Pirates at .Yrigley field, Chicago. Wild Scramble in National Foresees This at f ivy brings together two of the five clubs picked to wage a merry scramble for the cham pionship now held by the St. Louis Cardinals, who play the Reds at Cincinnati. John Arnold Heydler, president of the- National league, planned to see the New York Giants open the season at Philadelphia, while .the rampaging Brooklyn Robins Journeyed . to Boston to trade heavy wallops with the Braves. The Detroit Tigers will play the Browns at St. Louis, featuring a southpaw duel between Earl Whltehill and Walter Stewart. while the Chicago White Sox op pose the Indians at Cleveland in a game Involving two "dark horse" contenders for American league honors.

Andy Joerg was billed to meet Johnny Snell, but Joerg was injured in an au tomobile accident Sunday in which another man was killed. Bobby Ambrose won an unus ual type of technical knockout from One Round Shuley in the third round when Shuley became "peered at a warning from the referee and walked out of the Ting, much to the amusement of the beholders. - Young Johnson knocked out Red Witeraf t of Salem in the second-round, Douglas of Silverton won a four round decision over Bos t wick of SaUm' and Rudy Ar thur won a decision from Sid Norton in the four round curtain raiser.

We would suggest rather a contest to determine agility in avoiding aft er dinner speeches. And another in making a quick getaway just before the speeches start. We wonder Just how long before being called on the boys will be told what to talk about. Our suggestion would be Just' before the meat coarse. ' Re member, professors, no psy chosis without neurosis. The boys out at the peniten tiary have one consolation: they are about the only people in Sa lem who have been privileged to see a ball game this season. Our Idea of a soft job would be pub licity man for the ball team out there. v , Stipt. XJppa said the Navajoa were politicians : and tfeea he proved it.

A young woman of the eitr was driving, toward Portland the oth er day at a fairly lively clip, when she came dd behind a traf fic cop fn one of those white lim ousines; Her own speedometer shewed 45. . "Well, there's no speed limit any more," she told herself as she went by and widened the distance between them. The cop didn't live chase. Not until she was back "In Salem did the driver learn that there will continue to be a speed limit until sometime in June. Han-ay for the Wildcat!

The Boston Red Sox probably will play the sacri ficial role for the first 1931 league demonstration by the Yanks' 'Murderers' Row." 'The St. Louis Browns will en tertain the Detroit Tigers, and the Cleveland Indians will be at home Connie and Gabby Admit They'll be on . At Close of Note:. The following state ments on the prospects of the two championship clubs of the major league conclude a ser ies written for the Associated ; Press by the sixteen managers.) By CONNIE MACK Manager, Philadelphia Athletics We are starting off with the same team that won the October series last year. Whether the team will play up to that stand ard this year remains to be seen, as there Is nothing certain in this world. , I see no reason why the team as a whole should not play up to its last year's form. . If the Athletics do. the other clubs in the league will have to play better than - they did last year to overcome the margin by which the Athletics won the pen nant."'- Just now . all . our players are in good condition. Nothing has occurred to make me think any one ha gone back, so I am hope ful of the final results. By CHARLES (Gabby) STREET Manager, St. Lewis Cardinal A year ago at thi time I said that .1 believed the Cardinals, barring . injuries, . were ; strong enough to win the 1S30 pennant. This season It is my opinion that the club Is formidable enough to repeat its triumph. I say this knowing that Chick Hafey, a great outfielder. Is not with us and from present indi cations will not be with us. For tunately for the club we' have capable outfielders to replace him. - t - t X think we will have Improved pitching, r Burleigh Grimes is ready to go right now and his help from the beginning of the season will be of much assist ance. Jesse Haines also is ready and everyone knows he Is a great pitcher. Ot the new men. Der ringer, late of Rochester, seems & find. Dlxxy Dean has the mak- ronnd here. There was n fel low flicking flies on the court house lawn . Monday probably trying to see If the worms wouldn't rise. The basketball rules commit tee has cut down the "time out" duration from two minutes to one evidently figuring too much stra tegy was being cooked up. The other changes are minor. One provides there-shall be no more than three overtime periods for high , school or younger players. In the third extra period the first team to scors a polat wins, i Arrives to the Chicago White Sox in the rest ef today's American League openers. In the National League, the New York Giants will try to feast on the Phillies at Philadelphia; the Brooklyn Robins (twittering with potential batting power). will try to bombard the Braves at Boston ; the Champion St. Louis Cardinals should sock the Reds at Cincin nati; and the Pittsburgh Pirates will bomb, or be bombed by, the Cubs in Chicago. The new ball (ballyhooed as "a break for the pitchers"), Babe Ruth, the possible effect of hard times on gate receipts all these are foremost in fan minds as the 1931 season rets under way.' , OmkUU. 1M1.

After watching Charley Gil bert last season and this spring I feel safe in saying he is des tined to become one of the stars of the game, with . Bottomley, Frisch and Adams he helps to make one ot the best Infields In baseball. . Old Mike Gonzales Is with us to help round out a great catch ing staff. Wilson will do most of the catching and when he is not behind the hat Mancuso fills in acceptably. I look for a great fight, but believe we have a better chance than any of the others to finish on top. ' - ) RING GOSSIP j NEW YORK, April 13 (AP) Herman Heller, Germany, 201 knocked out .

Statutory resident attorney tec service NORTH SWIM Middleweight Belt Back In Salem, Barrackman is To JVr estle McCann for It FOLLOWING a statement by Wildcat McCann that Jen sen is too heavy to have won the middleweight north west championship belt from Barrackman at Olympia, fur ther Investigation revealed that it was not the northwest middleweight belt which was lost at Olympia, but a light heavyweight belt " which Barrackman also held. Wildcat McCann and " Barrackman will O . 1 meet Thursday night at the arm ory wltb the middleweight belt at stake.- -- - 1 -. When Barrackman was here for his "if title bout with Me Cann be was not sure who he would have to wrestle . at Olym pia in defending bis belt. The opponent happened to be Jensen, but the belt was not lost to him as Jensen Is In the light heavy weight class. " The bout Thurs day night will settle the dispute and In , case McCann wins, . the belt- will be 'In the hands of a wrestler who' will not be afraid to defend It against all comers. .: McCann has won matches from . many champions, but they seem to manage to retain their belts. - Perhaps they realize that there wouldn't be much chance beating; the : showy feline if he had a belt to defend, and for this ' reason have kept , It out of his grasp. But there-Is a limit to almost everything and now It appears that the Wildcat will ac tually get a fair and square shot at the northwest championship belt. The Barrackma n-McCann match here before was one of the best of the year with both going their hardest from the first gong. After each had gained one fall, McCann lurched back from the ropes, falling on Bar rackman and stunning him which paved the way for the final fall. When McCann met Reed here last week, he appeared to be In perfect . condition and It wonld have taken plenty to beat the Wildcat that night. Indications are that McCann will be in Just as good Shape for the coming match and it would be folly in deed If he were not. Barrack man Is a grappler who works on his man all the time and there srre no breathing spells In his matches. Barrackman will ' have - his wrestling bear here again tor the preliminaries. The, bear proved highly amusing . here last time and his behavior was above re proach so the Salem fans will welcome him back again. Harry Elliott of Eugene will be the third man in the ring for Thursday night's show. Elliott refereed the matches here last year and Is - himself a clever grappler and is as good as any at the game. . . Matt Matheney has diphtheria at present but hopes to be back in the near fu ture to keep the local bouts mov ing along In the right manner. Harry Elliot will do the Job equally well though, and is con sidered a top notch official. H. Z.Interclass Meet itr Today, Sweetland Field The Salem high Interclass track meet will be held this afternoon on Sweetland field. The meet was originally sched uled to be run off last Friday, bat adverse weather conditions spoiled those plans. A squad ot over 50 men wil participate in to day's meet and some good per formers are scheduled to come to light In today's competition. Very little practice has been held a the Jumping events so It Is a matter of speculation what kind of performing will be done In that department.
