By RON GEMMELL Disgruntled fans and players followed the wake of Friday night's postponed sof tball sortie between Walt's and the Paper mak e r s. The game, to hare been played from scratch as the result "bt a 14-inning pro tected ( fray at the seas o n's beginning, was called off by Salem Softball association of ficials Friday morning when overcast skies thr eatened rain. "Threat ( I y ROM GEMUEtX ened rain, hell!,1 was the way one Papermaker player termed it. - "the officials were just afraid of the threat to the treasury. What are we playing this .league for, money or pleasure?" ' . Trek for Naught. Many fans trekked to Sweet land Friday night expecting a -hot Softball session only to find the joint In pitch darkness and - the gates locked. Fully 75 per sonally, telephoned The States-, man asking what happened to the game. Several walked into this office to find out what had become of their favorite pas time for the evening. Informed .of the game's postponement shortly before noon Friday, from League. ; Manager Gnrnee Flesber, we wore able to pass the word along. " Invariably, when told the game had been . . postponed, the disgruntled fan wanted to know why. Poor, Procedure. Tis true! league officials thought they were acting in the best interest i of all concerned when' they decided to postpone Y, A ,11 A V. t f m A A,,.,-mA4 was made it looked like a long wet spell. As It turned out. Friday night would have been ideal for - playing. If league heads. do not ' wish 'to have further wrath from "fans and players alike piled on V them, they, had best change their jV procedure. Games should be post poned only if at the time the game Is scheduled to begin, Impossible . weather prevails. If so, r i i n checks should be passed out at the gate. The morning of the day of the game is no time for can cellation, especially If it is to be a performance that has had as much build-up as the Walts-Pa-permaker issue. SO Years to Go. After SO years, or so, of re porting and' column - writing, Don Upjohn was left oat in. the . cold.

Sips; it seems, was sipping while the edition was rolling off the press. He Is re ported to have walked Into the . office to write, his daily dozen at 12:30, bis nsnal time to get testy with fellow citizens, only to find hia "favorite paper" had already gone to press. Any way Don, the first SO years are .the hardest, ' Perhaps you'll make the 100th anniversary number. : . j NoDiff. ' That guy Maple Is here today and gone tomorrow. When he's here he's either coaching or play ing baseball. When he's there yes, you've guessed it, he's either coaching or playing baseball.

Games Aiv Divided WIMBLEDON, Eng., July 2- (jP)-Peerless Helen Wills Moody thrashed Helen Jacobs, her Cali fornia rival of more than a de cade, court on , Wimbledon's ; center today in one of the most personal : battles in the tragic history of . the all-England ten nis championships, f i Foredoomed to a final stroke of misfortune after ' overcoming the handicap of a shoulder in jury earlier in the tournament. Miss Jacobs pulled a tendon in an already injured right leg in the ninth game dot the opening set, hobbled ' through the next seven i pathetic games and was beaten. 6-4. 6-0. This victory lifted Mrs. Moody to her eighth title a record in the history of this old historic club. It set the crown on one of the most notable comebacks in sporting history. It was a major link in an unprecedented an American sweep on Wimbledon's five titles. And it rolled up an old and i bitter controversy. For 30 minutes, the two Hel ens battled on level terms. The score was 4-4. In the ninth game,! with1 Miss Jacobs serving and the score standing 40-30 Mrs. Moody hit the shot that decided the match. Right Ankle Snaps This was one of the 31-year old San Francisco star's hurtling forehands. Pitching deep in the forehanC corner, it caught 29 year-old Miss Jacobs 'off balance and when she lurched suddenly to ret it. her right ankle snaooed. She reached over and tuggea at her . ankle but kept on play ing. lost six points in a row and the first: set was gone. Before the second set startea. it was Clear that Miss Jacobs was hurt. She held up plajr momentarily to adjust the band are on her ankle. ; When she started to play she was helpless. She managed to win two points in the first game of the second set but "she won only one more after that while Mrs. Moody, never i hesitating, never once speaking to her, banged the ball from corner to. corner. Miss Jacobs, stumbling like a crippled I deer, could do nothing b-.t watch them gtf by. Night Baseball in Big Leagues Seen Harridge Convinced That It's Coming Though I Circuit Opposed rmfiACO. Julv 2.JV-Nlght baseball for all clubs is coming to the major leagues and com ing to stay. Tht is the belief of William Harridge, president of the Ameri can league, whicn lor years was solidly opposed to the playing, after nightfall, of a game which for almost a century has been' the nation's .! greatest outdoor after noon sport. ' Harridge makes It clear he is neither advocating nor opposing hasphall at nieht. He is convinced. however that night games in the majors, pioneered by the Cincin nati Reds and adopted success fully by - the Brooklyn Dodgers, soon will become a standard fix ture of big league schedules. Night baseball undoubtedly has been a big financial boon to the Reds. ! The Dodgers, in their ex perience! with it. drew 38,000 per sons through the turnstiles, and in a second after-dark tilt, against PittRburzh drew 2S.000 fans. It takes several week-day crowds for any club to match those Sunday figure totals, -.-j State League Due For Long Recess PORTLAND, July Z.-iWlth the Silverton club, in possession of the first-half pennant, the Ore gon State baseball league will recess until July 24 to clear the way for the state semire tourna ment which will open at Silverton next Saturday.

NEW YORK, July 2.-CP-Th experts,, are deep in their an nual guessing game this week, end, trying to figure out the line ups for the sixth and what .may easily be the most interesting, all-star inter-league baseball clash Wednesday on the Cincin nati Reds' Crosley field. ' It shapes up as one of the closest matches of batting power and pitching since the raid-summer rivalry was started as an an nual affair back in 1933. And the faithful will be banging from the, rafters to see it. Evener This Year On the face of It. the Odds of 2 to 1 on the American leaguers to win their fifth victory in this yearly classic are somewhat silly On both aides there's batting dynamite galore at the plate, and pitching to back it up. Both clubs will feature new' faces in the squads that report to Managers Joe McCarthy for the American leaguers and Bill Terry for the Nationals. The National league Infield is a matter for conjecture in two spots. Neither outfield is settled, as far as the "expert opinion Is concerned, while the pitching probabilities are so numerous. everyone has a different idea. In this latter respect, there's the Interesting possibility that Johnny "Double-No-HIt" Vander Meer. sensation of- the Reds, and Cleveland Bobby Feller, most publicized pitcher of a decade. may hook up in a duel at the start of the game. While it would be pleasant to witness. It isn't very likely in fact. The. chances are Vander Meer will get the call to open for the National leaguers, with his team mate. Ernie "Schnonola" Lorn bardi, rather than Cabby Hart net, veteran of all the all-star games, working behind the plate at the start. Yandy is the sensa tion of the year, and. Ip his home ball park, should be nominated to toss his . fireball for the first three frames. Gomes May Start I His rival, at the start, however. Is considerably less definite. Feller might be "It " but the chances are if left handed batters predominate among the National league, heavy-hitting starters, as now seems possible. McCarthy will counter with his New York money ; fllnger," El Goofy Go mez, who s about as good as they come when the chips .are down and the stakes are high.. Suppose, then, those two. Vander Meer and El Goofy do start. Then the National league probably will call on old reliable Carl Hubbell and possibly the No. l relief pitcher of the year. Mace Brown of the Pirates, to take it the rest of the way. Bill Lee or Jim Turner might be Jn there in place of Brown, but Lee, after a hot" streak, has cooled off somewhat, and Turner, while steady, doesn't hare anywhere near Brown's season record.
