MARK JUSUSH MJ THC fSA StSdE- The Pirate walloper, hailed as second Honus Wagner by Smoky City fandom, has a highly individ ual batting style. like many great hitters, he is most unorthodox bat ter. Al Simmons and Lefty O'Doul, to mention a couple of former bat ting kings, both had peculiar hitting styles, and Vaughan, too, doesnt swing according to any baseball Hoyle. Alky's batting form resembles the hitting technique of a golfer rather than a ball player, for he pivots and bends his right knee in- Mil City Five Come Tonight Huntington Has Hopes for Vikings; Ghosts Are Strong, Warning Coach Hollla Huntington will lead his Salem high hoopsters Into their first interscholastic action of the season tonight when they tangle with the tough little Mill City team on the high school floor at 8 o'clock. Prepared by nearly a month of practice Huntington believes his Vikings are ready to go and they will get their first real test against the speedy Ghosts from Mill City. The Ghosts, with nearly the same lineup as they will put on the floor tonight, provided one of the thrills of last year's state tournament when they nearly up set the state champion Astoria team. Starters Indicated Huntington's starting lineup against the Mill City team will probably be the same that start ed against the alumni before the holidays. Otto Skopil, lengthy lad with an accurate eye, and Phil Salstrom, speedy sharpshooter, will take the f o rjr a r d berths. Waggener, center; who came uP from last year's B team and Prom ises to be the star of this year's quint, will start at the pivot post. Luther and Williams, a pair of clever and dependable guards, will make up the rest of the starting five. Mill City, which defeated Jef ferson 38 to 11 last week, will probably start Waehter and Wood, forwards; Seim, center; Catherwood and Flook, guards. The Salem high B team will meet a church league five in the preliminary tilt at 7 o'clock. Whittier Contest Is Off for 1936 Willamette's proposed football game with Whittier college of Los Angeles is definitely in the discard, Coach "Spec" Keene said yesterday on his return from California. Failure to fird a date which did not conflict with conference schedules of the teams was given as the reason for dropping the game, tentatively scheduled for November 6. Keene said that Willamette will probably play Whittier in 1937 and 1938. A game will probably be sched uled with Fresno State of the Far Western conference in Hen of the Whittier game.

Coach Adam's Dallas high basketeers put on a surprising attack here to night to upset the Chemawa In dians 25 to 15.

The Dallas B squad won a hec tic overtime battle from the In dian reserves after an uphill fight, 33 to 31. Robert Kutch's charges found themselves on the short end of a 14 to 2 count in the first quarter but a big comeback led by Milton Koeker proved to be enough to finally knot the count. The Orange reserves led 27 to 25 going into the last, but the final gun found the score tied at 31 all. Koeker and Harry Watson tossed decisive free throws in the overtime period to give the Dal las B's their fifth win in seven games.

Budget Plans Are Upset by Decision (Continued from Page 1) Submitting only a partial esti mate for relief costs, he placed a 31.098.000.000 minimum on the 1937 deficit, as compared with a deficit of 33.234.000.000 now es timated for the current fiscal year and an actual deficiency of $3, 575.000.000 in the fiscal year which ended last June 30. In both the message and a sup plementary press conference, he maintained estimated revenues will be sufficient to cover all ex penditures then contemplated eir cept those for relief, with 35,000. 000 left over to be applied to the latter. For relief he tentatively allot ted 11.103.000.000 of unexpended previous appropriations, adding that two months hence, when the situation can be more accurately gauged, he will submit additional estimates. Subject, therefore to the in crease in relief expenditures the chief executive estimated 1937 re ceipts at 35. 634. 000. 000 as com pared with $4,410,000,000 for the current year, and expenditures at $6,752,000,000. as compared with $7,645,000,000 for the present year. These estimates, however, were predicated upon continued collec tion of processing taxes and pay ment of farm benefits. The cost of the farm program for the present fiscal year has been estimated at $621,000,000. Of that amount, a total of $370. 000.000 has already been expend ed in anticipation of processing tax collections. " For the nert fiscal year.. Mr. Roosevelt estimated receipts from processing taxes at $547,009,000 and the cost of the AAA program at $619,000,000. D r. Chan Lain Chinese Medicine Co.
