Squad at First; Morley Makes Most Points An early seren-point lead, ac quired before the Tlsitors (igured out a way to cope with that gal i loping fast-break offense, was the principal factor in Salem high , school's basketball victory over Eugene high, 31 to 27, on the Sa lem high floor Wednesday night. Frits Kramer's squad held the red and black a little more than eren after Hollis Huntington's boys had acquired that 9-2 lead, and at one time cut It down to i two points, shortly before the i close of the .first half, which end ed 13-9. Eugene might hare been , able to reverse the result on its home floor, but the fact that Sa lem won at all, is highly promis ing for the success this season of the rapidly improving local team. The game was marked by a no table dearth of fouls, Salem com mitting only two in the first half; and by the contrast between the two styles of play, Salem working always for the long dash to out speed its opponents which has marked Huntlngto n -coached teams for years, while Eugene so berly heaved the oval around in a percentage fashion. However, with little Mercer feeding, the vis itors were alert to every opening, and the veteran Northam excelled In one-handed shots from back of the foul line, piling up a total of 12 points. Runlett, center, also proved an uncanny marksman. None of Salem's men stood out in this game though Morley pop ped in 11 points, mostly by lead ing the fast break with a speed remarkable for his sise. Engle's height is proving a big help In re trieving the ball under the enemy basket. Salem was greatly handicapped, especially in the first half, by consistent loss of the tipoff, but between halves Huntington ap parently told the boys what to do about It and they got the oval, no matter how the tipoff went, their hare of the time in second half.

Gomes, Secretary Ed Barrow disclosed, was one of two Yank es, both pitchers, conceded a sal ary boost for the coming season. The other Is Johnny Allen. The southpaw star won 24 games and lost 7 last year. Allen, a fresh man sensation, showed 17 victor ies and only 4 defeats. Charles "Red" Ruffing, who was not of fered a raise, topped both his team mates in pitching effective ness, in which he was second only to Bob Grove. "Gomes came in to talk the matter over," said Barrow. "He doesn't think we offered him a big enough raise in recognition of his work. We haven't reached an agreement yet, but there is not much difference between us. I do not think we will have any real trouble." It Is believed Gomes received 311,000 last season and was of fered $12,000 for .1933. As for Lou Gehrig, the Junior member of the firm of Yankee home run holdouts. Barrow la op timistic. The first baseman will drop around soon for a friendly chat that will lead to quick ad justment of terms for 1933. Whereas Ruth has protested a one-third slash, from $75,000 to $50,000, the speculation Is that Gehrig has been asked to take only a $2,500 reduction, from $27,500 to $25,000. Gehrig's youth and added durability make him less a financial risk for the world champions than the aging but still spectacular bambino.

Howeyer, the preliminary turn ed out to be exciting with the Salem boys winning 83 to 27, al most the same score by which the Varsity" won later.

HUBBARD IS WINNER HUBBARD. Jan. 18 The Hub bard hizh school basketball team defeated Rickreall by a score of 28-14. Monday night. The game was played in the Hubbara gym COLUMBIA HEXT BEARCATS' FOE Irish Look Strong With win Over Linfield and Even Break With Pacific - Safely past Its first two con ference clashes, the - Willamette university basketball team will take a brief respite from games that count in the unofficial stand ings, and at the same time en gage worthy competition, by play ing Columbia unirersity of Port land, in a home-and-home series this week end. The Friday game will be In Portland and the Satur day night clash on the home floor. Columbia defeated Linfield and broke eren with Pacific in recent games, and ia therefore in a f aTor able position with respect to the Bearcats, who encountered a lot of trouble in winning from both of those outfits. The Irish defeat ed Linfield 42 to 36, rather more decisively than did the Methodists, on Linfield 'a floor. Rossi, forward, ..and Plskol, guard, have been outstanding scorers for the Cliffdwellers, though McCarthy, at forward, has not been far behind. Merle Kehl, former Woodburn boy who has been an outstanding gridder at Columbia for several seasons, is the other guard and Meyertholen starts at center. The Bearcats exhibited a lot of speed In the latter part of the Pacific game, and fans here are hoping that it wasn't Just a mo mentary spurt but signified that the team had "arrived." Chevigny Named Gridiron Coach At St. Edward's CHICAGO, Jan. 18. (AP) Jack Chevigny, former . Notre Dame backfield star and coach last season of the Chicago Cardin als of the National football league, will tutor the St. Edward's uni versity team of Austin, Texas. His appointment was announc ed tonight by the Rev. J. Hugh O'Donnell, 8. C, president of St. Edward's. St. Edward's has an en rollment of 800. Chevigny suc ceeds Al Saraflny. XURTIS Thaw wHl not be the usual congestion of basVelmH traffic ta Salem Friday night of this week. If oar record of the schedule: are correct. Willam ette goes to Portland to play Columbia, Salem high goes to Corrallls to play the Rookies and Parrish goes to Scott Mills. Fans who have an insat iable habit of attending basket ball games Friday nights, may follow one of those teams or attend the Church league con tests, which are faster than most people realize who have never seen them. There Was some booing at the Willamette-Pacific game Tuesday night. We agreed with the fans about some of the decisions, but that doesn't alter the fact that booing makes a bad Impression and keeping it up while a free throw is being made by the op position Is still worse, and inex cusable, especially for a univer sity crowd. A Portland basketball team walked off the floor at Dallas after a fool was called In the closing mlnntes of a game, with the score close, Tuesday night. We do not know the offi cial; we have been told he is Impartial, and that the trouble in this game, together with some less serious bickering in other games, has been due al most entirely to the fact that he Is a Dallas man and under suspicion by the visiting teams. Officials in any sport should always be neutral men, subject neither to suspicion of partial ity nor the personal embarrass ment such a situation always creates. While on the subject of offi cials, we wish to say that we have no quarrel with the men who have officiated at state tournaments in the past. Since there are three of ficials, one being idle at all times. and since there are two Portland teams in the tournament, it might be well to pick one Port land official and two from other parts of the state, then so arrange tooter ahonld.be In action when a team from his home town was playing. Fans who watched the Ore gon State-Waabington State -games were quite favorably Im pressed by the work of Emll PUuso. We hear he has applied for the tournament job. Fans here hare always liked the of ficiating of Rein Jackson, but If our suggestion were carried out, only one of those two would be selected. There are number of capable officials Available, Including some mem bers of the Willamette Valley association. Hood River and The Dalles have transferred their heated ri valry' from the gridiron to the basketball floor without losing any of its intensity. They played an overtime game the other night, Hood River winning 27 to 25. So far, they have not carried the af fair to any higher tribunals. Klamath Fall Is reported not to have quite so big and powerful a quintet this year, but It defeated Bend on Bend's floor twice last weekend and may be back for the big strug gle la March Ashland high didn't do much in football under the coaching of Don- Faber, Willamette star of last year, due to shortage of ma terial; but we note that Ash land's basketball team defeated Grants Pass 35 to 13 the other night. A Grants Pass story hints that Faber used some of the old "bear" psychology before that game. Medford claims to have a green team this year, and if that's true Faber's boys have a chance to slip through and visit the cap-ltol. their schedule that no whistle-area. Chocolate Held By Authorities, Charge Unknown KEY WEST, Fla., Jan. 18 (AP) Kid Chocolate, Cuban box er, ia being detained by United States Immigration authorities here aboard the steamship Cuba, Deputy Inspector A.

Sam Dolan Gets Some Votes for Beaver's Mentor . KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., Jan. 18 (AP) Oregon State alumni of Klamath Falls have advanced the name of Sam Dolan, member of the physical education staff at Oregon State college and well known Pacifle coast conference football official, for consideration as temporary successor to Paul J. Schissler, who recently resigned as head football coach at Oregon State.
