Wouldn't you Just know it.
Every time it's some little in
significant matter which goes
and npscts great mind, apple
carts, world equations, the
cookie jar, pappy pet pint and
Incle tira' picture on the far
walL The state softball tourna
ment waa shaping np fine. State
Softball Director Dwight Ad
ams was flitting about the state
(of Oregon) In a fine state (of
mind), lie was as full of smiles
and chuckles over prospect as
If he had been on a strict diet
of Klggle soap for 21 days or
whatever number of days Is
generally considered appropri
ate and adequate for d f e t s '
Blaybe it's IS. Yes, make It 18.
Then It happened. Just like
that, A mere suggestion, it was,
and now Director Adams is In a
lather, a dither, a pitiful plight
uj lie aia i i c-j-
In", so- good.
Scribes Nag Him.
It seems some far bo suggested
the press box should Jbe moved,
from its historical setting along
first base line, to a point of bet
ter, more modern vantage In the
grandstand. You know Mr. Adams-
he's a congenial soul. Do
ing a congenial soul, Mr. Adams
forthwith Interrogated ... prospec
tive nrMi tww altt... V In
bis pleasure.. The usual answers
were submitted: i.e., all different.
One prejudiced print portrayer
said "Give me a berth just back
of the screen back of home plate
or I won't cover your darned old
tourney." Another reasoned tte
only desirable place for the gen
tlemen of the press was high op
in Sweetlands football press box.
The latter was squelched by a
member of toe proletariat, - who
remarked he thought , the only
place, for such ilk was in h 1!
Maybe he was right. Ten will get
you 20 he was, from most any
bookie, with insurance from
Lloyds ot London.
Pillows, Please.
Finally Mr. Adams got to roe.
Said he: "And how do you feel
a boat this delicate matter Mr.
GrniniellT A reply seemed nec
essary. When a, thing is neces
sary, you gotta. Here's the way
1 gotta: "My dear Mr. Adams,
while your dilemma may be a
delicate one, after three months
of riding one Of these things
yon call a press bo I, night af
ter night, 1 believe my dilemma
Is the more delicate. Tbe only
thing that will appease me is
feather-filled pillows, ten fath
oms deep. Where you put 'em
is immaterial, but the material
must be as soft as, as soft as,
as soft as well pretty doggone
soft."
Paints Dark Picture.
Other than this perturbing prob
lem of where to put gents who are
supposed to write glowing phrases
of his tourney, Mr. Adams reports
the sixth-annual meet will be the
biggest, most closely played of
history, thank you. And he fur
ther points out he has a definite
feeling (but no where near as
acute as the one I have from rid
ing those press box rails I assure
you), that if Salem people want to
see their teams in action they'd
better see the initial games. Rea
son: It is highly probable' both
of our clubs will be clubbed out
of the list of contenders in their
first appearances. Mr. Adams
hopes not, sincerely. I hope not,
most emphatically. But the fact
remains, points out Adams, that
Engene and Astoria are lougbies
of the first, second and third wa
ters. And, according to the way
some nlnnys made the drawings,
cugeue meets .our aperinasers
and Astoria meets our No. 2 team
the first rattle out of the box. No,
I mean the, first round in the state
tournament.

pute for Lou's lightweight-championship
la a 15-rounder in Mad

night. - I
. Originally booked for the Polo
grounds last Wednesday night,
the tight was postponed and
transferred indoors when a down
pour of rain drenched 5.000 spec
tators Just as hostilities were
about to begin.
Had the fight gone on it would
have been a financial, if not an
artistic flop, but Promoter Mike
Jacobs tells you it will be a dif
ferent story when the tiro little
champs charge into each other in
the garden.
, : Jacobs Jubilant
"Already we've sold more ring
side and' Ill.Sfl seats than we
sold for the Polo grounds," said
Mike today. "The pasteboards are
moving today and I look for a
crowd of 19.000 and a gate of
around $100,000.
Other estimates placed the gross
receipts -at nearer 170,000 or
$80,000. 1 Jacobs has the big
arena scaled so a sell-out would
bring in a gate of $130,000.
Armstrong, a knockout winner
in 35 of his last 3S fights, re
mained a steady favorite at 3 and

Petite Ringsider Captures Show
As Grapplers Gyrate and She Is
Overcome by Nearly all Emotions
Though gruntin' and groanin, was rampant as usual in
the local rasslirt emporium last night, a little lady put on such
a show of rabid "ringsidedness" as to nigh onto steal the
show.
Pertly white panama-hatted, swagger-coated and silken
gowned. Little Lady was so sympathetic with the sufferings
of her pet cleanies, and so ve-
hement in her hates for the vile,
villainous meanles, as to gather
nearly as jnuch notice as the
grapplers.
Southside ringside seat No. 11
couldn't hold Little Lady and her
enthusiasm. When o n e of the
merciless bad men would start
twisting one of her pets' crani
ums, she'd all but climb through
the ropes. When one of her first
loves would become peeved
enough to poke his neck-twisting
adversary in the puss, she'd
scream in fiendish glee, jump high
off her chair and beat the smoke
laden air much more viciously
San her pet was poking Mr. Bad
in. .
Oh yes, and the wrestling re
sults: Sneeze Achiu downed Harry
Elliott in the main event, two
out of three. He took the final

activity will be curtailed. There
will be no . warm-up pitches, no
throwing of the ball around the
infield between Innings or no un
necessary hsnTTfig of the ball at
any time. When a batter Is struck
out, the ball will immediately re
turn to the pitcher and the next
