Clarence Crause, better known as
"Dad' Cross, 75, the oldest base
ball player in the Pacific north

States, died here today. .
"Dad'. Cross played with the
old Metropolitan team in New
York 50 years ago when that
team was in the American asso

In 1890 he played third base tor

That may not sound like news
to some readers, but -It is, for
there has been a lot of recrim
ination since the final game, and
the upshot is that Simmons finds
that each of the four Legion
posts involved used players who
were too old, but did bo inno
cently and in good faith, and in
view , of that situation Salem is
still champion but must purge its
team of ineligible players before
going further. ' . '-.
In respect to the Salem play
er who was ruled to be too old,
the post athletio . committee
had taken trouble to look up
birth records, and finding none
had relied upon sm affidavit
from his parents. . , .
It's said other districts are
having the ' same . trouble this
year, and if Junior baseball Is to

Bentley manager of the wpoa-

baseball team, stated today that
Woodburn would not claim roe
county championship offered to It
when all other teams were iounu
to hare used ineligible players, it
having been discovered that
Woodburn also - inadvertently
used an ineligible man.
Report here Was that Investi
gation had disclosed that Leonard
Vlvette who pitched for Salem
was born February 8, ' 19 13,
which would make him more
than a. Tear too old. and that
Bradv of Sllrerton was also too
old. Stayton was said to have
had a player, who would be oyer
17 years of age June au.aiso.
Until the local Junior baseball

The- Pacific northwest amateur
golf ehampion, Eddie Hogan,
Portland, was dethroned In the
first round of match play here to
day but only after one of the
greatest uphill battles ever wit
nessed in northwest tournaments.
Playing in . another rip-roaring

Los Angeles linksman, conquered
the defending tltlis by the scant
margin of one hoie after gaining
a fire-bole lead at the 27th of
their double-eighteen match. ,
Recovering ; some of the . good
parts of the game he showed last
year when, he defeated Johnny
Robblns of Portland in th finals
of the northwest tournament, Ho

one hole at 35th.
Going to the 36th dormle one,
the Portland boy had by far the
longest drive but his second
brushed through a tree as ' he
sought to cut the corner cf a dog
leg fairway to reach the green and
he was short in the rough to the
left. Shaw was also short and
both were on in threes with Ho
