By HON UEMMELL
- His name may be Sick, but he
evidently has a healthy bank roll.
Emil G. Sick, brewery baron who
unmapped the
elastic from a
large wad of Un
cle Sam's favor
ite long green to
purchase the Se
attle Pacific
Coast league ball
club , and fran
chise, la the fella
of w h om we're
peak lug. ftot
only did be fork
out oyer a quar
ter of a million
in s i 1 k y bank
notes for the
franchise and
f """
ball park, but Voa Gamma
signed the dough-wholesome name
of Sick to some $20,000 worth of
checks "to waylay howling credit
ors of the long Indebted club.
Prom the publicity bureau of the
league comes the following: "Sick
-. ia regarded as the biggest asset
acquired by the Pacific Coast-lea-v
gue In many years." It looks very
much like, for the first time In
modern history, a publicity expon
ent has hit the nail squarely on
the head and left no glistening
splinters. They-don't even Inti
mate that Sick may have acquired
a heavy liability though.
Financial Smiles. :
Says the publicity bureau,
"obviously. It was civic pride
and love of baseball which
prompted Sick to take the base
, ball helm in Seattle - - - - -".
- . . .he sive that order for a
etr, baseball plant; with no
more concern or excitement
than yon or I would show in or
dering a platter of bam and
eggs. Evidently, the yeast that
raises the avds oa Sick's beer
interests also raises the dough
in his bank account.; "Fellow
club owners and President Tut
tie are smiling more broadly
than In several years., because
Sick's entrance into the game
has strengthened the circuit
tremendously." Doesnt' every
kid 'grin outright when - Santa
Clans arrives?
8 Rousing "Hies9
For Sick. ,
In case yon want to know some
of the background of this modern
Saint Nick, or Saint Sick., he first
saw the light of day in Tacoma
He owns four breweries in the
northwest, and four in Canada,
and is president of the Associated
Brewers of Canada. Is a graduate
of Stanford, but two of his daugh
ters are enrolled at the Univer
sity of Washington. He's been an
exceedingly successful business
man and Is said to have a faculty
of building his business enterpris
es with engaging personalities.
What the Seattle club has needed
these many years is a true bus
iness gent at the helm so perhaps
Sick's Suds will attain the frothy
- bead of substantial returns on
? what seems at the outset to be a
" poor investment. f
Semi-Pros Start Talk.
While conversing baseballlsb
ly. word trickles fn from Port
land that interest is already
looking op for next summer's
Oregon semi-pro setup. Even
this early it looks as though
several district elimination eon-
: testa will be held for the right
to enter the tournament at Sil
- vert on in July. Oregon Semi
Pro Commissioner Ray Brooks
has had several applications for
district commissioner spots.
Marshfield was one of the first
towns to indicate it would stage
a tournament, and Medford,
. Roseburg, Bend. Pendleton, Ba
ker and LGrande have all sig
nified the possibility that they
may stage such. With the lamp
of interest burning this soon,
' clubs will probably start ear
lier than they have in the past,
assemble stronger4 lineups, and
consequently, the brand of ball
played the forthcoming summer
will probably be of higher call-kre.
Salem Sick, or Sick-Less?
No mention has been made of
Salem in these early baseball mut
tering!, however. Insofar as we
know, there has been bo stir of
Interest here whatsoever. With
no park in whkh to .play, even if
someone did have the intestinal
fortitude to attempt to revive the
Salem Senators, summer, baseball
here appears to be a lost cause.
Tis rather pitiful that the state
capital of the finest state in the
union should be without active
participation In the great Amer
ican sport, baseball. At this writ
ing-there seems to be only one
possible opportunity for Salem to
enter the State league this year.
That possibility is to arrange with
Silverton to play - home games
there on Sundays the Foxes are
awar. and let Silvertda support
the club. Which that athletic-
minded little city could and would
dern near do. Toe bad Salem
hasn't a Sick with a wad of kale
stuck around somewhere. Trouble
Is. he wouldn't only have to buy
a ball park and ball i club, but
would also bare to buy a wtooie
heck' of a lot of Interest in it
If you get what we mean.

Bearcats Beat
Badgers 38-27
Anton, Despite Hip Injury
Sparks Willamette to
Conference Win
It was a nip-and-tuck cage bat
tle on Willamette court last night
between the Bearcats and Pacific
Badgers until " Big Bill Anton,
the bombing Greek, went into
the fray bum hip and all. Main
ly through Anton's score-sparking
ability did the 'Cats go out
in front in the first period to win
finally 38 to 27.
The fray started like ft Bear
cat burial of the burrowing Bad
gers, with 'Cats i Weaver, Beard
and White tallying four counters
before Coach Miller's Pacific
crew drew scoring blood. . Even
with Sikstrom, ; Badger guard,
potting a gif ter ; the score read
6-2 tor Willamette at the end
of the first four minutes.
Johnny Seim, the ex-Mill City
hooper, popped in a gif ter on
Eberly's foul and teammate Self
ridge followed on White's in
fraction to bring it 6-3. Sikstrom
came through with one from the
floor, followed by Seim with a
one-hander in close to put the
Badgers out In front 7-6.
Walt Weaver, who couldn't
find the range, all night, fouled
Seim who promptly converted to
shove Pacific two full digits in
the lead. It was then that big
Anton entered the contest, and
while others were getting nips
now and then, the husky Greek
whipped in 5 field goals from all
angles to bring the 'Cats out in
front at halftime 21-16.
Slow Down Later
Nearly all the action was. in
the first canto of the Northwest
conference fray, both teams tir
ing in the last session despite
the many substitutions. Biny
Btard, "Willamette's leading
scorer, found both his floor speed
and shooting eye in the last halt
to pod in three buckets.
Anton s spurring spurt was au
the more sensational in view of
the fact that he played with a
hadlv cramDed hin muscle, in
ured against Gooding college
nearly two weeks before.
Tt was a rood thing the Bear
cats didn't have to rely on foul
conversions. They missed 11 out
of 17 attempts from the charity
mark. The 'Cats had much the
hotter of It in the open floor fir
Ing, however, caging 16 out of
48 castoffs for a .333 average
while the Badgers hit but 9 In 60
tries for .180.

First applicants for a battle
with the new meanie contingent
appeared on the scene Saturday
when Al Szasz, the . sensational
Hungarian favorite, announced
his desire to meet the meanies
provided he could secure Elton
Owen, the promoter's grappling

Young Owen, who has proved a
bundle of dynamite In Portland

ana tbe team battle will comprise
the main event of this week's
card.
The Lipscomb-O'Dowdy alliance
follows the break-up last week
of the unholy combine of Bull-,
dog Jackson and the champion.
Although the duo won a team
go two weeks ago in straight falls,
tney bickered constantly, each ac
cusing the other of failing in sup
port.
After the victory the argument
continued, and was climaxed by
Lipscomb slugging Jackson. When
the Bulldog recovered, he at first
blamed the referee, but when he
discovered that his partner in
crime was guilty he ended the re
lationship at once. Lipscomb pro
fessed to be glad and immediate
ly allied himself with O'Dowdy.
Tbe supporting bouts for the
team classic will pit Mad Mur-
