one of the finest exhibitions of
mat roughhousing ever seen here
and gained the undying hate of
the gallery.
Achiu, who lost out to Don
Sugai last week in a fast and
clever match, will probably be
able to handle the Dirty Dutch

lookout for a surprise. The for

selecting a name for the club, pre

ning. First Workout Is
Held by Senators
Hitting and Fielding Work
Started; One Capable
Pitcher Assured
Only a few ball players turned
out for practice for the Salem Sen
ators ball club Sunday but "Fris
co" Edwards blamed it all on the
earliness of the season, Blossom
day and the-fact that most cf the
players he is counting on for his
team are already working cut six
days a week with Willamette.
"Frisco" had enough outfield
ers on hand for a bit of fielding
and hitting practice and expressed
himself as satisfied that he has
the makings of a good club.
Howard Maple, who played pro
ball In the Western league last
year, will catch for the Senators
this season and at least one pitcli
er Is already signed and working
out. The pitcher Is BUI Bevans,
a Hubbard high flash last year,
who won several games for tire
Senators in the tail end of lajt
season.
Edwards believes he will have
most of the Willamette infield for
the Senators. BUI Moye. who
caught last year, will probably be
shifted to second base, a position
with which he is familiar.

S PORTLAND, Ore., April i0.-(JP)
-The Portland baseball team,
which climbed rapidly to the .500
mark, opens its home season here
tomorrow at 2:45 p. m., against
the San Francisco Missions.
Manager Max Bishop, former
second baseman for the Philadel
phia Athletics, will be making his
bow before Oregon fans.
The unusually strong early sea
son showing of the Bearers on
the road brought predictions of a
large crowd at the opener.
Many new faces appear in the
Portland lineup. The pitching
staff appears stronger on the
whole than last season. Some of
the veterans were slow to find
their batting eyes, but have been
hitting better the past week.
Manager Bishop named Tom
Flynn, gaunt southpaw newcomer,
to pitch In the opening game.
Earle Brucker, with his big .360
batting average, will be behind the
plate.
The Missions also will start a
southpaw pitcher, Frank" Leman-
ski. Joe Sprinz probably will be
the Mission receiver.
Bill Sweeney, seasoned new
comer at first base, will be on the
shelf several weeks longer with a
bruised wrist bone, leaving the
hard hitting Johnny Frederick on
first instead of in the outfield.
Manager Bishop will be on sec
ond, Dixie Howell of football fame
or the veteran Dudley Leer at
short, and Fred Bedore or Holt at
third.
Claybaugh, Bongiovanni and S.
Coscarart probably will patrol the
outer garden.
Brief opening ceremonies will
precede the game.

P4iace Urged by Speaker,
But Internal Dangers
Also Lurk, Warns
A plea for peace in a world .of
hatred and at the same time a
demand thai the United States be
well-armed to defend herself
against internal and external foes
as brought to the Salem chamber
of commerce yesterday noon by
B. F. Irvine, editor of the Oregon
Journal.
Irvine professed great fear of
communism in the United States,
declared there were 32 commu
nistic organizations now active in
Portland and 100 newspapers fo
menting a communistic uprising la
the United States.
He urged retention of compul
sory military training in Oregon's
higher educational .Institutions.
"If we abandon military training
we will, be like Ethiopa; defense
less In a world where covetones
ness nations seek our lands," ho
declared.
With his plea for preparedness,
Irvin decried war, said it was un
necessary if men would follow the
golden rule, and urged adoption

conduct ever given man. Were the
golden rule to be put in practice,

police," he declared.
