By RON GEMMELL
Twm Jost two ysars and one
day ago this very night that Sa
lem high's hoop band was last
defeatea on its own court, it was
accomplished by the Chemawa In
dians, 17-1 1, and you can tell by
the sis ot the score that they
were still playing center jump
basketball.
fcUc then, January 22, 1&38,
the Viking lad have won 23
comseewtive clashes on their
own maple boards, and toe near
eat they've come to being
whipped was in this er' Uai
las astft McMinnvilie games,
which they won by the over
time route only.
Tillamook's Cueesemakers, who
will attempt to bring Salem's con
secutive home court win record
to a halt tonight, was the only
team to twice defeat the locals
last season. (The eaten here is
tUat Tillamooa wuipped Saiein on
the Willamette court laot year).
From January ZZ, the 1938
record of home games is:
Saiam 2, fct. ie.ei

Salem JU, co.vaiiis 11.
Salem 3S, loMiUU'U.a 24.

Double Count Clash.
Tonight's Cheesemaker - Viking
clash is, therefore, of major por
tent on two counts. One, the mat
ter of preserving and continuing
that home court record and, two,
the matter of deciding the current
leadership of the No Name league,
of which both schools are mem
bers. Has Rarty's '.Mooks have
won five straight in the loop;
Salem has posted four consecu
tive league wins. Neither has
been defeated in league compe
tition. The 'Mooks are the tie
fending So Name champs, and
the Vikings are the defending
state champs.
Coach Hauk, of the Vikings,
credited the all-state member of
his crew, Scottie Sebern. with
playing the beBt game of his ca
reer against Eugene last week,
and the worst games of his career
against Med ford the following two
nights. Star of the Medford se
ries, Hauk Baid, was Medford's
Ray Crosby, whose long shots
and floor drive was Medford's
mainstay.
LAMt year, you may remem
ber, Medford played a slow, set
game despite having the fast
est men in the state tourney.
This year, according to Hauls,
the Medforda, still boasting
three sprinters, have taken to
the fast-b r e a k , swarm-'em-under
style that carried Salem
to the title over Medford in the
state meet. "They beat us at
our own game in Saturday
night's game," said Hank.
Pivoter Sought.
Any chances the Vikings may
havs of successfully defending
their state title depends to a large
degree upon the development of
a pivoter, it is Mentor Hauk's be
lief. Of the three candidates who
have been taking cracks at the
post, tall Russell Salter is the
best equipped but to date has
been a defensive bust.
A fine offensive player. Bat
ter so far has shown little in
clination to "get tough" on the
backboards and Lacks the de
fensive fire so necessary under
the Hank system. His number
one understudy, Daryl Mason,
has the necessary aggressive
ness bat doesn't have the ball
handling or scoring ability.
Number three, Don Harms, is
perhaps the best ball-handler
of the three, but isn't rugged
enough for backboard duty and
hasn't so far shown any offen-
drive.
Outside of these three, Hauk
has two other possibilities for the
Twieition. One is big Bob Board-
man, the football pivoter, who
has been seeing service witn toe
Innlar varaltv. and the other is
i.nir nnn McKm. who has been
handling one of the forward slots
in creditable fashion. MCK.ee, wno
niaved outstanding ball at Aiea
ford, measures up to all require
ments except pnysicai stature.
He's aggressive, a good ball hawk
and has a nice pivot shot he can
get off with either hand.
Should McKee take over the
pivot slot, it is probable fiery.
Ketl Kernes will get bis for
ward spot, while Eddie Salstrom,
perhaps the sorest shot on the
squad, will move np to first
lino replacement for either Se
bern or Kernes.

Owen to Give
Women Passes
Each Woman With a Man
to Be Admitted Free to
Armory Tonight
Pa may get ma, brother may
get sister or beau may get sweet
heart into tonight's rasa 1 in at the
armory free, was the announce
ment of Promotor Herb Owen,
who billed a whirlwind team
match at the top of the card.
Each woman accompanied by a
male is to be ushered into the
armory free of charge, so the
maestro of matdom stated, and
what each will see is a tandem
tussle that pits Gold Hill'B Sgt.
Kenneson and Klamath Fall's
Pete Belcastro against the bucka
roo brothers, Dude and Bobby
Chick.
And, Harry Elliott returns after
a long, long absence to referee
the bouts.
It's the mean marine and Ital
ian ruffian against a couple of
Colorado waddies. Brother Dude
Chick, until recent years a top
bronco buster and still one of the
better steer ropers and bulldog
gers, boasts a personal friendship
with Gene Autry, champion of the
hors,e operas. Brother Bobby,
not quite as well known In rass
lin rings as Dude, is nevertheless
rated almost his equal in rodeo
arenas.
To back up the team match,
Promotor Owen has billed an
hour, or two-of-three falls, strug
gle between Portland's ever popu
lar Ernie Piluso and Herb Parks,
the most scientific of light heavy
weight grapplers.
The armory doors swing open
at 7:30 and the Piluso-Parks
match goes on at 8:30.
CI Loop Leaders
May Fall Today
Both City Intramural league
leaders, the Giants and Greens,
are expected to encounter stub
born resistance in today's loop
bills. The Giants go against the
Reds, who are given an outside
chance of drawing an end to the
former's undefeated status, while
Leslie Is given better than a 50
50 chance of dropping the unde
feated Greens.
The loop's third bill pits Par
rish against the Yankees, and the
northend Juniors are expected to
hang up their second league vic
tory. Friday's games will be featured
by the first meeting of Parrish and
Leslie, the game is billed for the
Leslie court at 7:30.

Vikings versus Cheesemakers
for leadership of the No Name
basketball league, st 8 o clock
tonight at the Viking villa, with
a Jayvee-Bee bust preceding the
varsity clash at 6:45.
And the local preppera, who re
turned Sunday from a road trip
upon which they smothered Eu
gene only to drop two straight
to Medord's fast-mushing Black
Tornado, have a record that
dates back to January 22, 1938,
to preserve.
Since that date, two years and
a day ago, the Vikings have not
lost a single contest on their own
court. On top of that, Tillamook
was the only team to last year
twice defeat Coach Harold Hauk's
state champions. (PS When Til
lamook played here the game was
held In the Willamette U court.
hence the preservation of the un
defeated home court record).
Hauk brough back with him
plenty of respect for the dashing.
aggressive game being played by
the Medfords this year plus a
burning desire to uncover a 'cen
ter with some defensive and ball-
hawking ability. The Viking boss
used three pivoters, Russ Satter,
Daryl Mason and Don Harms,
against Medford, and was dis
satisfied with the work of each.
Tonight's clash is but one of
three for the Salem team this
week. Thursday night the Vikings
entertain Coach Eldon Cone's
Bend Lava Bears here, and Fri
day night they move out to
Chemawa to do battle with Jer
ry Gastlneau's swlftles, the Chem

assistant and backfield coach, to
day was named head football
coach at Carnegie Tech, succeed
ing William F. "Bill" Kern.
He steps into the post that Kern
resigned to become head coach at
West Virginia university because
the outlook at Tech seemed as dis
mal as the Tartans' 1938 grid
record. He was given a two-year
contract.
Baker enrolled at the Univer
sity of Pittsburgh from Nanticoke,
Pa., and was graduated from the
school of dentistry in 1931. Like

Tonight
Games Certainty
For Pan-America
Possibility of Permanancy
Expressed by NAAU
President
NEW ORLEANS. Jan. It-VP)-The
stout and genial president of
the National Amateur Athletic
union, Lorenzo Dl Benedetto, de
clared today the Pan-American
games were "a certainty" for this
year and might become a perma
n e n t series for western hemi
sphere nations.
"This would certainly solidify
relations of tbe Americas," he
said. "Of course It takes time and
first we must get a full organiza
tion set up to start the 1940
games."
He said plans for staging the
games in the United States this
summer, in lieu of the Olympics
which are among the war casual
ties, had "passed the talking
stage," with work already under
way for organizing a definite
program.
But the AAU committee which
he appointed to take steps for the
1940 games, he added, is looking
beyond this year toward a per
manent periodic meet for the
Americas.
"The committee, with other or
ganizations taking part, expects
to prepare a constitution for an
international association to have
jurisdiction over the Pan-American
games every lour years or
oftener If desired," he said. "The
association would award the
games to different countries Just
as the international Olympic com
mittee does."
The AAU president said Latin
American countries were "ready
to participate," and that the first
suggestion for Pan-American
games to supplant the Olympics
this year came from Alexander
Hogartv, an American who is ath
letic director of Ecuador.
Cities bidding for the games
Include Philadelphia, with a
$500,000 offer; Los Angeles, of
fering to match any other city's
cash and throw In whatever is
available from 1932 Olympic fa
cilities; and San Francisco.

Broadcasting Rites Are Sold for Home
Baseball Games at new Park;
Opening Contest April 23
By RON GEMMELL
"I just signed Roy Helser' gasped Biddy Bishop, business
boss of the Salem Senators, shortly after his return here yes
terday from a two-day Western International league meeting
at Tacoma.
"We'll open our 73-game home stand against the Yakima
Piopins," was number two statement from bubbling Biddy.
"We get 12 week-end datingsO'
out no noiiasy games on our nome
schedule," was number three.
Number four "Our season
opener will be with tbe Spokane
Indians at Spokane. April 23."
Number fire "Broadcasting
right were sold to Whesties snd
Goodrich."
Number six "I'm still after
Bunny Griffiths, San Diego short
stop, to manage the Senators."
Number seren "I bought Out-flelder-Catcher-Infielder
Charley
Peterson from Yakima and Second
Baseman Robert Baer from Spo
kane." Number eight "League admis
sion prices were kept at 45 cents
general and 35 cents bleachers."
Number nine "Bob Brown.
Vancourer manager, fairly gasped
when he inspected our park here
Monday, saying, 'without ques
tion, it will be the finest in the
leaene'."
Helser. the chunky southpaw
named outstanding player of the
national semi-pro congress in
Wichita last fall for his efforts
in pitching the Silrerton Red Sox
to four straight victories in that
meet, signed for no Inducement
other than a substantial salary.
Riehop revealed. While Ilelaer
had other, and possibly more lu
crative offers, the hard-hitting
former Linfield college athlete
admitted he'd rather take less and
stav in the west.
The 12 week-end dates on the
home schedule means hut 24 Sun
day names, one each Sunday sft
ernoon and one each Sunday
night. Bishop is entirely satis
fied with the schedule, Including
the fact that there are no holiday
games on the home bill.
Griffiths Still Sought
The deal on Bunny Griffiths
has been hanging fire because San
Diego wanted Griffiths to manage
its club in the proposed clans C
league that was being considered
by the PCL, Bishop said. Now
that the proposed league has fal
len through, he expects to get
Griffiths.
Baer played 6 2 games at the
keystone for Spokane last year,
driving in 32 runs and hitting
.284 in 236 times at bat. The
versatile Peterson played In all
142 games for Yakima, hitting
.287 in 561 times at bat and pol
ing home 68 runs.
"We're going to make it pos
sible that no Beat in the park will
sell for over the 45-eent top plus
tax." said Bishop. Enlarging on
me statement, he said reserve
seats will be sold at the 4 5-oent
top if purchased for the season
Boxes, of which seven have al
ready been sold without solicita
tion, will command a rents! fee
for the season but rentors will
psy regular admission prices only
for seats.
Bishop said the park would
be completed by March 15 and
that an open house for the public
would be held March 30, st which
time the league directors will be
here for a banquet the night of
the SOth and an Inspection of the
park the following day, March 31.
The league salary limit remains
the same. $2500. despite efforts of
some club managers to get It
hiked. Bishop stated, as does also
the player limit. Clubs may carry
22 players for the first two weeks
and for the last two weeks of the
