Trsck's Cinderella boy, flustered
little Welby Williams, shucks his
rags and sees to the grand' ball
this weekend.
, Deep In a dream, this abort and
handsome North Texas State
Teachers college sophomore -who
had nerer ran a major race until
a month ago, goea to the famed
Pena relays a the top attraction
in the lee-yard sprint.
; Wee Welby, the 155 pounder
who failed to hit the headlines a?
a third string halfback during the
football season, volunteered for
track little more than fire week
ago. : v.
! i Siucevthat day he baa defeated
! Freddie Wolcott of B!ee, the na
tional intercollegiate hurdle -kin?,
and sprinter, three times and has
swung out on three 9.6 second
century sprints. .
Now, almost by accident, he has
reached the top in six weeks.
Some boys train years to be listed
in the program of the Penn re
lays. ;. .V ., -
.Bashful Betty Jameson, the
national women's golf champion
of San Antonla, starts next Mon
day at , Dallas the task of carv
, In g "out her fifth consecutive Tex
as women's title.
i Sounds like a monopoly, but
Betty hits her hardest competi
tion at home.
Only three weeks ago. playing
In the San Antonio city champion
ship, Betty found herself six
down to Mrs. Earl Ilury with less
than 18 holes to play. But the
same Jinx that has struck Mrs.
Hury on "three other occasions
started working again.
Betty pulled through for a 2
and 1 triumph. Now she muct face
the threat of Mrs. Hury acain in
the state, not to mention Mrs. Dan
Chandler of Dallas, once national
women's semi-finalist and Mexico
champion; Mrs. Prank Gold
thwaite, former southern titlist
and Curtis cup player and Kay
Pearson of Houston..
Ironically, the., fisld makes it
possible that Betty may be cham
pion of just 47 states-s-majbe not
her own. 1
Slender BarnPT dark, one as
sistant to Jimmy Demaret atq
Houston's Brae Burn club, today
ranks as one of golf's longest hit
ter. ' i -: -
The young Beaumont Country
club professional who weighs
about ISO pounds, has a 293-yard
hole-ln-one to his credit.
Naturally, Jimmy 'Thompson
and Sammy Snead, the howitzers
of pro golf, didn't know that when
they teed up for driving contests
at the Texas and New Orleans
opens recently. They Just -hadn't
heard of Barney Clark, another
Texas boy. u. v
But 'they knew him after the
driving contests. Thomson i won
the Texas open slugging bee with
a 287-yard smash, but Clark was
only six yarda behind. Snead s
28 2-yard wallop won at New Or
leans, but Clark's 172-yarder.
which burled in the. mud when it
hit, was good for the place mos
ey again. ;

Very Unusual Is Claim;
Vancouver Cashes in on
Yakima Errors :
By RON GEHMSLL
SPOKANE, April 23.-(SpecIal)
-Until today bright sunshine had
been the daily weather schedule
here for two weeks, Spokane resi
dents swear, honor bright, but a
steady drizzle which began at 7
o'clock this morning and contin
ued, until mid-afternoon .caused
cancellation of tonight's : long-looke-d-forward-to
opener between
Salem's - Senators and Spokane's
Indians. ' .. ... I--.
"it's downright unusual," say
Spokanites. "We never had a
single league game postponed be
cause of rain all last year."
Ail festivities the parade, ban
quet and opening ceremonies
will take place Wednesday, Busi
ness Manager A. J. "Monty" Mont
gomery announced. Just one game
will- be played Wednesday, with
the possibility that today's post
poned bill may be made up on
the tall end of the series. In a
doublekeader Thursday night.
Both Skipper Bunny Griffiths
of our Senators and Manager Ed
die Leishman of the Indians, who
took their squads inside the arm
ory for short workouts, said the
postponement would make no dif
ference ia their starting assign
ments. It will be Bud Brewer on
the mound for Salem and Major
Serventi for Spokane.
Instead of shooting Jerry Soule
in the second night and Roy Hel
ser the third, as he originally In
tended, Griffiths now plans on
using Helser n the number two
role so the husky southpaw I will
have the right spacing to be ready
for the Salem opener next Tues
day night.
YAKIMA, AprU 23.-jfV-The
Vancouver Capllanos trounced the
Yakima Pippins 9 to 3 tonight as
