Novel, Method of Spreading
Grappling Interest is
. To be Tried out
With Bob Myors and Chet
Wiles, all ready to tangle Wiles
with the avowed Intention of
proving: to the doubting Salem
fans that he really la a wrestler,
Myers seeking to enhance the
already good opinion he enjoys
here the boxing and wrestling
commission Monday night decid
ed to reveal what the line "guest
night on its posters this week
really means.
Here's the inside dope. The
regular customers are invited to
bring along a- giest each not
other regular customers, but
somebody who hasn't been at
tending wrestling shows. No
charge will be made for the
guest. However, if the observant
ticket seller recognizes the would
be "guest" as a "regular" the
offer won't be good. The pur
pose Is to encourage new patron
age. As for that doubtful attitude
which may be still embedded in
the minds of the fans wbo saw
Wiles in his previous appearance
here, it may be due for a rude
shock. Wiles asserts that he was
In1 no condition at all on that
occasion and that he's in wonder
ful condition now.
ruts Walt Miller
In Tacoma Hospital
There seems to be some basis
for that last claim. Walter Mill
er Is good enough as a wrestler
to have held Myers practically
even throughout a recent Port
land bout, losing the deciding
fall after coming within an ace,
whatever that is, of winning it.
Tet Walter Miller at latest re
ports was still a patten in a
Tacoma hospital sent there by
Officer Wiles who Just about
pulled Miller's arm off In the
Tacoma arena. That wa,s three
weeks ago.
Myers made short work of
his last match here, taking two
straight falls from Oscar Butler
of Portland, and the fans have
no doubt that tonight's two-hour
main event will be a real battle
provided Wiles lives up to his
promises. As for Wiles, he has
sufficient confidence in his abil
ity to have asked for a winner
take alt agreement on this
match.
The boxing and wrestling com
mission has had "new faces" as
Its motto for the last several
shows, and tonight's will carry
out the same motif (real class to
this new sport Jargon, what?)
for the one-hour preliminary will
feature Pat Callaghan of Butte,
Montana, and Jack Mitchell of
Longview, a pair of trapping mid-
dlewelghts who have not been
" here before. Nothing but their
pictures Is available to Judge
them by,- but they don't appear
to be weaklings.

Back In 1927 the New York
Yankee set a record of 128
straight games without being
shot out. Yesterday the Yanks
played their 128th game of the
current season and had not yet
been shut oat, so today if they
score, they will set a new rec
ord. And chances are they will
boost it materially before some
body comes akng and stops
them.
Of course there's not so much
remarkable about that record,
when you consider that the Yanks
have lost only 38 games so far
this season, so they haven't had
much chance to be snut out.
Don Johnson, who played
second base for Oregon State
last spring, is now playing third
base regularly for the Seattle
Suds although his father, the
celebrated Ernie, la no longer
the manager of that club. Or
perhaps he's playing there be
cause the "old man" is out and
young Donald gete considera
tion solely on bis merits.
When young Johnson came here
with the Beavers he didn't happen
to look so hot, making a couple
of boners in the field, getting
caught off first base and failing
entirely to connect with Andy
Peterson's stuff. In fact in two
games last spring, Johnson didn't
get a hit off Andy. Nevertheless
he's quite a ball player.
We observe in the official
tabulation of the State league's
fina 1 batting averages, that
Johnny Beck leads the circuit
with .750. But he went to bat
only four tlmee. The real lead
er -is Roberts of Schapp's at
.541.
Incidentally an inspection of
the list reveals that Schapp's had
six players hitting over .250 In the
regular lineup, and West Side had
seven, revealing why they fin
ished at the top. That is, it re
veals It until you count again and
find that Bend had eight. But
that's easy. Bend had no decent
pitching until near the end of the
season and then began knocking
them all over.
O
Salem and Eugene had only
four regulars up there, reveal
ing why in spite of quite good
pitching, they dropped from
the top near the end of the sea
son. Albany had only three,
showing why it never got any
where even with good pitching.
Salem members of Odd Fellows,
subordinate lodge and encamp
ment in joint session, welcomed
officers and members of the grand
lodge here for a visit Friday
night. Following the official part
of the meeting, the lodgemen
were served a banquet prepared
by a committee assisted by A. W.
Peebles. "Bob" Henderson acted
as toastmaster.
Grand lodge members present
were A. H. Knight, grand treas

ST. PAUL, Minn., Aug. 29.
(AP) The big push for the pro
fessional golf championship of
America opens over the Keller
Fee course tomorrow with every
noted pro of the nation except
Gene Sarazen and Leo Diegel en
tered.
Saracen and Diegel announced
they would not accept a " berth
among the 104 qualifiers because
of their failure to land among the
low 14 In the metropolitan trials.
After taking their final practice
swings today with the mercury
around 90 degrees and a heavy
west wind ripping over the course,
the consensus was it would take
between 149 and 152 shots to land
in the qualifying bracket of 32
after tomorrow's 36 hole qualify
ing test. Among the favorites was
Harry Cooper of Chicago, who won
the 110,000 SL Paul open over
the same course in 1930 and fin
ished a good second last year.
DETROIT, Aug. 29. (AP)
When Catcher Ray Hayworth of
the Detroit Tigers dropped a third
smice in tne second game or a
double header In Philadelphia, to
day, he ended a perfect fielding
record which dated back to Sep
tember 2, 1931, and which Is with
out an equal In the major leaguas.
Excluding the game in St. Louis
in which he made his last pre
vious bobble, Hayworth had ac
cepted 439 chance in an even 100
games without a flaw.
The previous catcher's fielding
record was made by Johnny Bass-
ler, also of the Tigers. In 1919,
when he played errorless ball for
63 games.
The dropped third strike today
let Jimmy .Foxx reach first and
permitted Al Simmons to score.

While the American team is graced

many golfing authorities that the

Law Violations
Denial that stock in the Central
Public Service corporation was
sold without a permit from the
state corporation commissioner s
office was made yesterday In an
answer filed by the Northwest
Public Service company to the
complaint recently filed in circuit
court by Gunmurdur Thorstein
son. The corporation, admitted
in the answer to be a holding con
cern, had a permit and also was
authorized by a law passed in
1931, to sell stock without a spe
cial permit, the answer recites.
The defendant also alleges that
the Northwest Public Service com
pany had no connection with the
sale of Central Public Service
company and is therefore not lia
ble in the pending action.
