Silverton's surprising American i
Legion Juniors tamed the tablas
on the Salem Juniors at- Silver
ton Wednesday, winning 10 to 2
to take the- lead in the county
league. Coomler of Silverton and
Gatehell, Salem pitcher, allowed
the same number of hits, but
nearly all of the Silvecton bats
men who got on bases, got all the
way around.
One of the chief factors in Sa
lem's downfall, asid? from inabil
ity to make its hits count was
difficulty in the catching depart
ment. Aker, injured in the game
with Stayton Sunday, essayed to
perform his nsual duties but
found he could scarcely lift his
left; arm. Gwyn, totally inexper
ienced behind the baf, took over
the Job and though he showed
considerable promise, wasn't able
to learn all of the business in
one attempt.
Due at len?t partlv to the lack
of a capable catcher, Gatehell
lacked his usual control, wild
pitching a number of times
though he walked only four bats
men. Claggett and Steinke led the
Salem team in hitting with two
apiece. Coomler, in addition to
pitching effectively, led the Pil
Terton boys with three blows.
The county race will be all but
decided Sunday when Silverton
plays at Woodburn. If Silverton
wins there. It is "in," but if
Silverton loses and Palem van
quishes Stayton again, Salem will
have the opportunity at Woo-i-burn
next Wednesday to tie the
race up at the finish.

the decision over Varias Millin,

LOS ANGELES. June 14
(AP) Portland's ninth inning
rally fell short by two runs of lta
goal and Los Angeles took the
second game of the current series
from the Beavers here today 8
to 7 although three hurlers were
required to stem the tide.
A big fourth inning, which saw
Sam Gibson retire under dugout
orders after he hed allowed three
previous runs, gave the Angels
four of their tallies. The other
came in the fifth but Art Jacobs
silenced the Los Angeles guns ef
fectively thereafter.
Wrynn Ballou received credit
for the triumph, although he
gave way to Buck Newsom in the
eighth. Buck got into plenty of
trouble !n the ninth. After an
auspicious start when Jacobs hit
into a double play, NewBom al
lowed four straight hits including
Mulligan's double and topped ft
off with a walk. Two runs were
across and the tying and winning
runs were on the bases.

DOTS
(CURTIS
ON January 16, 1932, the day
after Tommy Loughran had
been knocked out in two
round by Steve Hamas, a New
York newspaper printed a picture
showing Loughran stretched out on
the canvas after the final knock
down. Underneath this picture was
a caption which spoke of the sensa
tional rise of youne Hamas and
concluded with a brief tribute to the
veteran Loughran.
"This knockout brought to
close the career of the leading mas
ter boxer of modern ring history"
that's what the caption said, speak
ing of Loughran. of course.
Well, now it'a June. 1933. and
whom do we find clamoring for a
shot at the leading heavyweight
contenders but the same Mister
Louzhran. whose fistic career had
, been officially brought to a close
. by the Hamas kavol .
. The Phfllv Phantom has haunted
i -the heavyweight contenders for
some years now, and there doesn't
seem to be anything the boys can
do about it. After Sharkey put him
to sleep back in 1929 the fight ex-!
pens all wrote finis to Loughran s
career, but Thomas, unperturbed by
this crushing defeat, came back
and ran up one of the most impres
sive winning streaks ox modern ring
history.
Then he ran into an upset defeat
by the wild-swinging King Levin
sky, and immediately after this
came the knockout at the hands of
the youngster Hamas. This time
tne tight writers were sure that
they were making no mistake in
writing Tom's fistic obituary. They
expectedLoughran to announce his
retirement as a manor oz course.
aiier wis oexeat. and when the
rnuadeipnia veteran insisted that
he would continue fighting, the
boys shook their heads and mur
mured that he would wind up punch
drunk if he didnt look out.
Once again, however, it AevelrmA
that Mister Loughran knew more
about Mister Lourhran than tha
fight experts did. Tommv took m.
good long rest, knowing that stale
ness and not advancing age was tne
cause of his defeats by Levinsky

THREE IN ROW ARE
DROPPED BY YAK
It is queer or Is it, after
all? that when the suggestion
wu made a week or so ago to
move the state basketball tour
nament away from Salem, not
one newspaper in the state said
it was a good idea, unless we
missed some of them. A former
member of the sports staff of
the Oregonian was said to be a
leader in the nnder-cover cam
paign to take it away, bat L. II.
Gregory, the sports editor, de
nounced the idea.
O
And then there was Art Perry
of the Medford Mail-Tribune. As
he mentions in the paragraph
quoted below, he used to have his
suspicions about the way the
drawing was made for the tour
nament. He came here for the
tourney a year ago, shortly .after
a tirade on the subject, and we
rather think some of us in this
office were able to prove to him
that everything was on the level
and couldn't he otherwise. By the
way, the state board of control of
the high school athletic associa
tion, the body which apparently
took the lead in proposing the
change, directs that drawing, and
last December an Oregonian
sports writer drew the numbers
out of the hat. At any rate, here
is what Perry says now:
"A move is afoot to move the
state high school basketball tour
nament from the Willamette un
iversity at Salem to "Old Oregon"
one year, and Corvallis the next.
The Salem press designates this
move as one of the higher grades
of robbery, and announces it will
resist the filching. That Is exactly
what it Is. The tournament has
now developed into something
worth-while, so the mightier
schools want It. In its struggling
years the tournament was be
neath their notice, and Willamette
university needs the advertising
and the cash accruing therefrom.
as badly as "Old Oregon" or
Young OSC. Many times in the
past, mis town nas suspicionea
that the drawings for the games
were held in the penitentiary
so much luck did Salem high have
in miraculously falling in the soft
spots. Now the home fans feel
they would rather be rained on in
Salem, than either Eugene or Cor
vallis." O
Down in Eugene there's a
controversy raging about who
should be recorded aa the win
ning pitcher In the Townies'
game with the Senators here
Sunday. Wiltshire was retired
for a pinch hitter in the ninth,
with Eugene behind; before
In man took the mound in the
last half, Eugene was ahead.
Hlghclimber facetiously opines
that Cotter Gould was the win
ning pitcher, because he ran
for the pinch hitter who took
Wiltshire's place in the batting
order, and therefore was the
"official" pitcher when the win
ning run was scored.
o
You may be surprised, but the
rulebook doesn't give the answer.
In fact, there isn't any rule in
the book to cover the question of
winning and losing pitchers,
which explains why the American
and National leagues figure it out
differently.
