SACRAMENTO, July C (AP)
Portland made it two straight
behind Joe Bowman's five hit
pitching here tonight and beat tbe
Senators 4 to 2. A three run ral
ly on two walks, two hits and an
error in the third was enough for
Bowman as he stopped the Sena
tors with only two runs tbe whole
night. Ben Tincup battled him
almost on even terms until reliev
ed for a pinch hitter in the
eighth.
Chozen starred In the field.
The ducks sent infielder Johnny
Monroe to Portland for treatment
to an Injured leg which was found
to be fractured. He was hurt
Sunday when Haney of Los Ange

his general direction. Just goes
to show the difference between
big league ball and semi-pro ball.
. Runners In the big leagues
let no grass grow under their
feet and lnflelders have to cut
loose without aiming and first
basemen have to take them any
old way. It's a big jump from
semi-pro and college ball to the
American league and Billy is
doing quite well to be in there
at alL
Billy will stick up there In some
position because he can slug, pur
other home town boy in the Amer
ican league, Howard Maple, faces
a different prospect. Just a fair
hitter, he's staying on the Wash
ington payroll because he can do
a lot of catching, and he'll make a
place for himself only by becom
ing one of the smartest catchers
in the business. Howard can do
it, but it will be a slower process.
And then on the third hand
by the way, wouldn't a man
with three hands go big in the
wrestling trade on the third
hand, we say, consider our big-leaguer-to-be,
Andy Peterson
He'll be up there, but will he be
a pitcher or an outfielder? He
can do both fast enough to suit
anybody. !
Those two prospects are entirely
I different. An outfielder who can
cover ground and hit finds him
self a niche and stays there fcr

With the Ollnger seniors one

Robin Reed and Henry Jones
will appear in the next wrestling
show at the armory but not as
adversaries. Reed will meet Pat
Flnnegan and ; Jones will tangle
with Jack Salisbury, a newcomer
from Salt Lake City, In a double
main event next Tuesday night. It
was announced Wednesday.
Appearance of the two men who
drove 8000 fans frantic at the
fairgrounds Fourth of July night
In their title match- which settled
nothing excepting that Reed re
tained the world welterweight
belt, is sure to attract a lot of In
terest, especially since they are
both matched with capable oppon
ents. In addition, the Reed-Finnegan
set-to may turn oat to be some
thing of a grudge battle, for Reed
Is understood to be none too well
pleased with Finnegan's perform
ance as temporary referee in the
title bout, .
Just at the moment when Reed
had Jones oft the floor in a per
fectly good airplane spin which
might have resulted In the decid
ing fall, Flnnegan happened to get
In the way of Jones feet and was
knocked for a row". That caused
a lull in the wrestling until Verne
Harrington could resume the du
ties he had suddenly relinquished
under somewhat similar circum
stances, and when they started
grappling again Jones was upright
on the mat and not circling In
mid-air.
Salisbury will be appearing here
for the first time,; but brings a
good reputation from other cities
where he has wrestled. Members
of tbe local boxing and wrestling
commission saw him beat George
Lowe at Eugene recently and give
assurance that he will be able to
provide Jones with competition.

Woman Scorned

E. Walsh and
baseball player had rejected her
attentions. Miss Vlplet Popovich,
a pretty brunette, forced entrance
into his hotel room, made one
final plea for his love and then
attempted to commit suicide.
Jurges, in a wild lunge for the
.22 automatic which the woman
pulled from her purse, was shot
twice, one bullet struck him In
the right side, riccocheted off a
rib and came out the right shoul
der. The second ripped the flesh
about the little finger of his left
hand. Miss Popovich was struck
by the third shot, which entered
the left hand and traveled up the
arm six Inches.

DALLAS. July 6 The Jury in

a verdict favoring the defendant.
Rose, In the civil suit of Morey vs.
Rose. Allan Carson was attorney
for the defense and McKInney and
Hayter for the plaintiff.
The case was first brought to
trial in justice court in West Sa

appealed to the circuit court, and
succeeded In bringing action there.
Preparing to meet the Albany
Alcos here Sunday in the last .
game of the first round of State
league play, the Salem Senators
are putting in some extra prac
tice licks this week and In addi
tion are considering some chan
ges calculated to strengthen the
lineup for this game and the sec
ond round which will start tbe
following Sunday.
The team's principal . weakness
so far has been lack of a reserve
pitcher, and that need Is expect
ed to be filled by the signing of
-Doby" Wood. Amity boy. who
pitched for Willamette university
in the 1131 season and won all
but one of his northwest confer
ence games.
However, the Senators are plan
ning to hold a business meeting'
after tonight's practice and at
that time, it "Is understood, a
proposition may be offered to Leo
"Frisco" Edwards to take oTer
the field manager's job. Frank
"Burly" Bashor, present catcher
manager. Is In favor of this
change, despite the fact that the
team under his direction has
been rather successful to date.
Bashor admits that Edwards
knows a good deal more baseball
than he does and has the added
advantage of knowing most of the
hitters the Senator f lingers will
face.
Whether an arrangement suit
able to Edwards can be worked
out remains to be seen and there
Is no certainty that a change will
be made.
"Squeak" Wilson, the Solons'
regular moundsman who suffered
from a sore arm in the last game
wun racmc Outfitting but had
to stay In there because there
was no relief pitcher, rested last
week and doctored his arm and is
limbering It up regularly this
week, so that he should be ready
for the taik of stopping the Alco
sluggers here Sunday.
