Riggi was stopped when the heavy
puncher from . the onion . fields
drove, the Ashland fighter to the
ropes and cut him down to size,
has been training heavily for sev
eral months and figures he is In
condition, to turn the tables on
Riggi. It is the .contention of
O'Grady that the first fight should
not have been stopped , and he
wants to prove that he can. whip
the Brooks Italian with the heavy
fists. :
, . LHhian Good Boxer
O'Grady Is more of a boxer than
Riggi but will have much to cope
with In the steam which the
Brooks boy is able to put behind
his short punches. Riggi has been
working out daily and is said to
be in fine condition.
Eddie Norris will meet a tough
customer In Ernie Bailey, Centra

In his last important start the
Porto Rican Tornado smashed the
European lightweight champion,
Enrico Venturi, into fistic oblivion.
Montanez gave the game Italian one
of the most savage trouncings we
have witnessed in some time, putting
hjm on the canvas twice.
Pedro is a cruel puncher with
either hand, and is one of the few
boxers among the younger set who
know how to punch to the midriff.
BY
rAUL HAUSE-R
The Salem Senators will aban
don operations this summer for
lack of a ball park, but the Sa
lem Senators have been without
a real ball park since the close
of the 102S season. Old Oxford
park, the scene in those happy
years often referred to as "the
good old days' of many a thrill
ing encounter, was torn down
that year and the infield and
the outfield marked off into
parcels of real estate. Most of
them are still parcels of real
estate.
It is a shameful indictment of
a town whose chamber of com
merce boasts that it is "the most
ail-American city of its size in the
United States" that for nine years
It has not had a regular baseball
park. Baseball, we were taught,
is the American national game and
yet Salem, which boasts a popula
t'n 91 ner cent American born,
only sighs when it learns that
there will be no baseball for Sa
lem this summer.
Woodburn has Its Legion ball
park and Silverton Is building
a $12,000 baseball park, bat
Halem hasn't had a ball park for
nine years and doesn't seem to
rare If It never has one. Isn't
there one red-blooded citizen of
tbe type commonly branded
'public-spirited" who will come
forward with at least, an idea
a to bow Kalera ran get a ball
park? . . i j
Even though, an adequate park
provided, Sunday baseball would
be profitable, it is not the solution
to Salem's problem of waning in
terest in baseball. Salem people,
in the cool summer evenings, will
go to night shows. They would
like night baseball. That, it ap
pears, is the solution.
Thin town Is no smaller than
eyeral which are enthusiastic .
members of tbe new Western
International league, the infant
class C circuit which opens this '
year In Washington and British
Columbia. Salem, once re-educated
to baseball, could support
a professional baseball team in a
class C league. Is anybody in
terested? .- " ,
Basketball bows itself out of
tbe picture this weekend and from
what one hears of the abilities of
one Angelo Luisetti It will be no
leisurely bow. Stanford . built up
such a towering reputation this
year on the strength of Lulsettl's
happy faculty of scoring joints
that most of the people who buy
tickets to tonight's and. Saturday
night's games at ; Pullman buy
them , with the Idea of watching
Luisetti more than of watching a
championship basketball series.

Ancient Baseballs
Attract Attention
Two baseballs, the horse-hide
covering of both yellowed with
years, were on display yesterday
in a show , window ofParker's
sporting goods store. !
One of the balls was used In a
game between Amherst and
Princeton baseball teams in 1882.
The other was presented to the
owner of the balls, a prominent
Salem man who did not wish his
name disclosed, -when he was a
delegate at an American college
baseball - convention at Spring
field, Mass.," December 3, 1881.
Among the lettered names on
the ball is the name of W. C.
Camp, captain of the Tale team.
It is the same Walter Camp of.
Yale who is known as the "Fa
ther of American Football" and
who originated the All-American
team idea.
The faded lettering on the first
ball shows that Amherst squeezed
out an 8 to 7 win over Princeton.
In appearance thetwo half-century
old baseballs do not differ
greatly from present day pellets.
