Keen left them In the fray as
they piled up an Impressive lead
od then held enough of it to de
feat Linfield, 32 to 28, an unex
pected outcome Inasmuch as tne
Wildcats were classed as threats
for the Northwest conference title
this season.
Willamette's defense in the
first half was so tight that Un
fleld scored no field goals until
there were only five minutes left.
The Harrington, Llnfield's only
substitute to get a chance, poked
one la on a stool-pigeon play.
Neely, Wlldfcat ace threat, was
held to one field goal for the eve
ning. Meanwhile with Bill Lemmon
setting the pace and Erren Kloos
tra. right on his heels and. later
outdistancing him, the Bearcats
piled up a 12 to 3 lead; it was
18 to 8 before Linfield finally got
going but Henry Lever's boys
made it 16 to 11 by rallying right
at the close of the period.
In the second half the Wildcats
were still barred from the proxi
mity of the basket but Stewart
.with some help from Harrington,
Helser and Brostrom, fired at
long range and gradually cut
down the ten-point margin which
the Bearcats amassed early in the
period. With two minutes left,
Stewart looped a long one that
reduced Willamette a advantage
to two points. The "smoothies,"
their bag of tricks nearly exhaust
ed, pulled one more out as Lem
mon tossed the goal that made it
32 to 28.
In addition to battling a deter
mined and bruising Wildcat crew,
the Bearcats were the victims of
some weird decisions on the part
of Emil Piluso, usually capable
referee who had an off night. Wil
lamette drew just twice as many
fouls as Linfield, though the
Wildcats appeared to be at least
equally rough.

MANAGERS
JOB.
NATURALLY, ail big league
baseball managers are for
mer players, although at
least one Joe McCarthy never
reached big league caliber in his
playing days. But it is an unusual
fact that only one pitcher Walter
Johnson and one outfielder Max
Carey are now managing major
league teams. The rest of the pilots
are or were either catchers or in
fielders. Of the four new managers ap
pointed during the past winter,
three were catchers Mickey Coch
rane, Bob O'Farrell and Jimmy
Wilson. The other one, Bucky Har
ris, played the infield during his
active days.
DALLAS, Feb. (.Dallas high

to big-time ranks again tonight
by defeating University high of
Eugene 32 to 28. Dallas led 12 to
4 at the end of the first period,
having piled up seven points be
fore the campus team scored.
Dallas stayed ahead all the way
but after leading 27 to 18 as the
last quarter started, saw that mar
gin dwindle to two points for
considerable period and one point
momentarily. Hamilton, a substi
tute, looped the hoop for the
points that gave Dallas a final
margin of safety.

THREE CATCHERS HAVE

WILSON,

The most famous of the former
catchers to achieve managerial suc
cess is the grand old man of base
ball, Connie Mack. Indeed, Mack's
success may seem to support the
contention of those who claim that
catchers make the best managers,
because they are the only players
who have every play directly in
front of them, and because they call
the signals for the pitcher.
However, the name of" Mack
stands almost alone as an outstand
ing success in the list of catchers
who tried their hands at managing
big league teams. Billy Sullivan,
Bill Killifer, Roger Bresnahan and
Ray Schalk are a few ex-catchers
who failed to set the league on fire
Dazzy Vance
Marketed at
Waver Price
NEW YORK, Feb. .-tiPV-From
behind a barrage of several thous
and words of baseball gossip and
rumor today, as the National
league wound up its mid-winter
session, emerged the somewhat
poignant fact that Arthur
Dazxy" Vance, for seven succes
sive years of his prime the "fire
ball'' king, among pitchers, has
been sold to the Cincinnati club
by the St. Louis Cardinals at the
waiver price of 87500.
There was a time that would
have only been pin money for
the great dazzler himself. He re
ceived three times that much In
salary when he was the ace of
the Brooklyn pitching staff, with
a record of being the league's
leading pitcher four times, from
1924 to 1930, and the undisput
ed strkeout king of them all at
the height of his colorful career.
Now, nearing his 41st birthday
and after a major league record
that stretches back to 1915, Vance
has little of the old -smoke" left.
He was traded by Brooklyn to the
Cardinals last winter and saw lit
tle action la 1933, closing the sea
son with a record of six victories
and two defeats.
The Reds, as has been the case
since their new ownership, head
ed by Powel Crosley, Jr., and
Larry MacPhall, took full com
mand here this week, monopoliz
ed most of today's baseball spot
light.

NEW YORK, Feb. .-VOne
long loud vote for the United
States Davis Cup team was reg
istered today by Monsieur Henri
Cochet, who spent most of his
tennis career fighting Yankees.
But times have changed, and
with them opinions, and today M.
Cochet of France, once champion
of all amateurs, foundation stone
of his nation's Davis Cup forces,
arrived here from South America
for his professional tour with Bill
Tilden and Ellsworth Vines.
"Most eertalnly," he said in
a liberal translation of his French
and what English he has picked
up in the past seven years re
ceiving the congratulations of
most of the American stars after
the completion of important
matches : "the Americans will
win."
"The English, no. no. One year
they Vlll hold the Davis cup. The
Australians, they are dangerous.
But America, ah!"
There were more "ahs" before
the explanation.
"Your doubles team, always it
wins. No one can beat George Lott
and his partner, either John Van
Ryn or Wilmer Allison. So there
you have one point to start with."

THRILLER IS WON
BY.1LEY MOTOR
Salem sport fans were treated
to four shows, each worth the
price of admission, at the regular
weekly wrestling card at the arm
ory. , i
Although - only wrestling was
on the - entertainment menu for
the evening, the fans were-treat-ed
to oratory, both good and pro
fane, a battle between the re
feree and" a wrestler-fan, and a.
battle between the headllner and
fan.
After the ring -had been clear
ed through the aid of police
officers and deputy sheriffs, it
was discovered Art Perkins, for
merlyof Detroit and now a resi
dent of Salem who won a decision
over Robin Reed of Reedsport in
their first meeting, . had given
the 145-pound champion the
worst beating ever witnessed in
Salem; that Bulldog Jackson
Jackson lost three rounds of .a
two-round bout, the first two to
his opponent Jack Curtlss of New
Mexico, on fouls, and third to
Referee Harry Elliott, of the Uni
versity of Oregon, on points. Wal
ter Achlu, bested Les Nelson,
formerly of Albany, in straight
falls, In the most orthodox of
three bouts.
The card last night was so
wild and woolly that the near
capacity crowd was standing
practically throughout the bouts.
One of the highlights of the card
was an Impromptu speech by
Bulldog Jackson, he of the derby
hat, toward the close of the en
tertainment. The fans who attended the
card, hoping to see Robin Reed
defeated again by Perkins, should
have bee . fully satisfied at the
outcome. Perkins hit Reed with
everything within reach, in
cluding the heavy eight foot
press table. He bounced the
heavy iron gong off the Reeds
port battler's head, cuffed him
about with an iron chair, and
twisted his neck In the ropes un
til he was black In the face. Per
kins won the first fall in 20:05
with a reverse figure 4 head
scissors but droDDed the second
fall to Reed when the former
title claimant clamped on a toe
hold and hammerlock. Perkins
won tLe final round in 5:40.
Jackson, after being warned
by Referee Elliott, was disquali
fied in the first round of his
match with Jack Curtiss when
the fall was awarded to the New
Mexico grappler on a technical
ity. Bulldog made the decision
certain in the next round when
he kayoed Curtlss with a right to
the jaw, thereby dropping the
bout decision.
Jackson returned to the ring
side to watch the Reed-Perkins
scrap and after the first fall, got
into a tangle with Elliott. Elli
ott ripped Jackson's derby up be
fore police could interfere. Mean'
while a Wrestling fan bad clam
bered through the ropes and
tangled with Reed, who was wait
ing to go to the dressing room
Curtlss is to meet Perkins on
next v.eek's card with Jackson
and Elliott matched for a bout

O&MENIS
Here's tis February and the
state basketball , townament
starts Just six weeks from
today. It's always wise ta look
ins; ahead to this event to bear
firmly in mind that it is played
late In March, and not In Decem
ber, Jan nary, February nor even
the preceding March.
For Instance the Salem high
team through most of January
looked like a breeze and some
thought the tournament would be
spoiled by lack of competition for
the defending champions; where
as so far this month it has looked
as though Salem fans might stay
away from the big show to keep
from -witnessing their own dis
grace: and of course the situation
in March will be ideally some
where betwixt and between.
Several weeks ago It looked
as though Pendleton was going
to be the hot shot from eastern
Oregon and might come over
here and make spectators ont of
the Salem boys the first night;
Pendleton is still going strong
but we note that 3iacLoughlin
high has beaten Walla Walla
and there is no assurance now
which Umatilla connty team
may tarn oat to be the armored
tank.
The Chemawa Indians lost to
Ashland and beat Medford and we
were iust getting ready to com
ment thereon and predict the re
turn of Ashland's Lithians to the
tournament roster, when another
dispatch came in telling of a
whitewashing handed to the
Braves the second night by Med'
ford and we had to throttle our
typewriter.
L So it appears at this writing
that the state toornamet will
open in the Willamette gym on
March 21 with 10 teams regis
tered, that one of them will be
Salem high and that nobody
knows jnst what sort of team
Salem will have.

sweep in four games against Uni

when . University of Washington

The basketball lore of the Hus
kies was sufficient to quell a Web-
foot uprising that netted 19 points
at the end of the game. Both
teams were ragged, but Washing
ton was a bit more organized in
the pinches.
The Huskies led all the way,
though only by a one-point mar
gin at one time in the first half.
Their half-time lead was 18 to 12.
Ollnger scored a cripple at the
start of the second half, cutting
the Huskies' lead to two points.
Dick Merrin, substitute center who
tied up last night's contest, sank
another long shot at this Juncture
and Washington was away again.
The Webfoots were behind 35 tq

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-UP)-Babe
Ruth enters his 40th year tomor
row and Joins Bis Bill Tilden, the'
Hon. Michael Scott, MacDonald
Smith and others in a gallant
company of athletic graybeards
who still give lusty blow for blow
with the youngsters in sports.
All past their prime, as athletes
go, they still can muster the fire
on occasion and raise their games
to championship heights, bringing
a gloating chuckle to the lips of
those who long since have left be
hind the pleasures and triumphs
of youth but still get a vicarious
thrill when the old win over the
young.
It is distinguished company In
which baseball's great man finds
himself. Tilden, at 41, is the na
tional professional indoor cham
pion: Scott 55-year-old descend-
ent of the Scot bard, is the British
amateur golf titleholder; Mae
Smith, golf's master stylist at 43,
is leading the winter golf parade
in medal score and money won.
Slightly behind that quartet,
with Ruth the highest paid player
in baseball, are a host of other
distinguished competitors near 40
or over that age. There are Wal
ter Hagen, Max Marston and Fran
cis Ouimet in golf, R. Norris Wil
liams in tennis, Clarence de Mar,
Pat MacDonald and Matt McGrath
In track and field, and an even
dozen others cavorting with Ruth
on major league battlefields.
