Home, Leave Our Senators, who Sunday completed an 11-game home stand by dividing a double bill with Tacoma's Timers, this morning leave on a 10-day road trip that will find them playinjr in Tacoma tonight, Wednesday and Thursday, in Vancouver Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and in Spokane next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. O Skipper Griffith gang, whieh Sport Sparks IK RON CKMMKI.I. Testifying- to your column con ductor's recent allegation that our Senator hurling staff may be re vealed to the final analyst as the Western International league's finest for 1940 Is the fact that, during the 11-game home stand that, concluded Sunday, only 88 hits were registered off Messrs. Brewer. Helper. D a t I a. Solnila, Soule. Oliver and Clemence. Boiled down by the simple ex pedient of long division,' (which I got my seventh grade brother to do for me), those 88 hits in 11 games average but eight blows per. That's pretty snazzy pitch ing, especially in comparison to those 12. 20, 10 and 11-bit ring-around-rosies that are occurring elsewhere in the loop with auch regularity that the scores are 21-7. 17-9 and 13-12 in a series of three games. Best batch of serving done in the 1 1-game home was that by Roy Helser, who on. May 15 pitched a fire-hit, 2-1 win over the Wenatchee aad then, four days later, came up with a four-hit. 8-2 Job against Taeonuu la addition, the big- southpaw during the 11 days made two brief relief ap pearances and four times saw set-rice as a pinch-hitter. In the latter role he hit safely twice and walked oace. Hi record for the aeries: 13 htta is 20M tuning Not far behind Helser for that stretch was Orrin Davis, the 19-year-old rookie who specializes In an overhand, fast whirling- hard one. Davis hurled four-hit- ball for seveii frames of a 2-0 loss to Vancouver on May 11 and came back May 17 to pitch a six-hit. 4-1 win over Tacoma. His relief work constituted 2 innings of: two-hit ball, making a total of 12 hits he gave up In 18 H frames. Hot Stovers Dripr Mlsnamed. is Tacoma's Hot Stove League. At least its appear ance here would indicate. More properly, it could be termed the Soaking Wet loop. for. the 250 members who were in our town Sunday weren't "rolling out the barrel" they were barrels-full. Their special cho-ehoo carried 100 eases of suds when it left Tacoma and when It got here all the "cases" were empties and all the members were falls. They were lively, the Hot Stov ers. While some of the Salem cri ticism directed at them for their excessive dampness perhaps was coming to them, there is no de nying that they showed up our home fana in the pep department. They nearly beat Babblln' Biddy's bleachers down In that seven-run sixth : Inning when their Tigers were going to baseball town. One of their members, a Mr. Vandenburg. sat down beside a Salem 'fan whom . he knew cot from Adam and began expanding on the merits of CI 1 f f Barker, popular young receiver of our Senators. "He certainly la a beau tiful catcher for Just a youngster. Isn't he?" questioned Tacoman Vandenburg. His aaksowa seat mate ac quiesced. Mr. Yandeabare; eon Uaaed for three lnntafpi to sine praises of Barker in his neighbor's ear. Came the fifth inning and another stranger sidled down the alale. stopping la front of Mr. Vaadeatmnc and his unknown friend. Ha id the ' stranger, shaking- hands wlth Mr. Vanden burg's friend, "Well, year yonajc son is doing a mighty sweet Job oat there. Isn't he, Mr. Bark err' Up to the "Pavcler." Not until a week from this Friday do o r Senators return here. Tonight, Wednesday and Thursday nights they are at Ta coma; May 24, 25 and 21 they are in Vancouver, playing doe bleheeders on both Frldsy and Saturday; and Tuesday, Wednes day and Thursday of next week are In Spokane, playing a double bill Thursday. They open against Yakima back here on May. 31. . And so . this Is the day Spec Keene's Bearcats are supposed to cinch ep the western division of the Northwest conference baseball race. In order to annex that trip to Caldwell for the playoffs. Tea, and the one win necessary from the Llnfields. who are here for a double hill, rests squarely on the shoulder of "Powder Bob White, Especially on the right shoul der and arm ef the White, who has accomplished the amazing task of pitching- the Bearcats to T T Law.

Roy Helser won his second game of the home series Sunday, taking a 3-2 "battle of south paws' from Floyd Isekite, top tosser of the WI in 1939 and but recently turned back to the Tigers by Los Angeles. Cliff Barker was the game's hero, hammering home Clabaugb. who had walked, with a to-the-fence double in the sev enth for the winning run. One bad Inning spelled defeat, 8 to 2, for our Senators in the seven-frame nightcap. Up to the sixth Hal Clemence, making his first appearance in Solon livery, hurled one-hit ball and looked a cinch to coast on through. Three hits and two walks off Hal chased three across, and Brewer, his im mediate relief, was touched for four more on two walks and one hit. Davis was called in to retire the side. The season's second largest crowd. 2497 paid, witnessed the double bill. Included in the num ber were 250 ardent Hot. Stove League fans from Tacoma. who excursioned down via special train. , Unless Eddie Wilsqn. the outfielder-first baseman recently pro cured from Chattanooga, arrives here early this morning the team will depart for the north without him. Bubblin' Biddy Bishop, general manager, will make his first swing with the boys and flatly predicted he'd bring them home In second or third position. While at home our Senators di vided with Vancouver, 2-2, de feated Wenatchee, 2-1, and whipped Tacoma. 3-1. Spokane moved Into a percent age tie for first position over the idle Yakima Pippins Sunday by twice drubbing Wenatchee. The Indians won the first. 14 to 42. and the second 7 to 5- on the strength of some excellent relief pitching by George "The Duke" Windsor. Salem-Tacoma Games Tacoma 3 4 j Salem . 3 g j Isekite, .

That Includes both Oregon and Oregon State, over whom he holds single decisions. White, whose latest achieve ment was a l-O, 10-inntng win from Dierkx, the Pacific chucker whom a let of acouta lnrinding oar Senator management have been giving the once-over, will probably twirl this afternoon 'a l:SO opener. His ninth straight win la weeded by the Kcene men to assnre that playoff pot against the Coyotes, who won the eastern division away from Whitman for the first time in 13 years. Clem Pnrberry, the Coyote roach, said while here over last Saturday with the ten nis team, that he had no leas than six capable pitchers. . .

"la Salem, they snesu The Statesman. ,1 - ' ' ine Is Bags 54 Win From Olingcr Spectacular Golf in First Nine Only ; all but 3 Flights Reported The prize for which his father contended unsuccessfully only five years ago, the Salem city golf championship, rested in the" possession of Walter Cline, jr., following Sunday's final match in the sixth annual Active club tournament In which the younger Cline defeated Dr. Harold din ger, the 1939 champion, 5 and 4. Cline; sr., was a finalist in. the first city tournament in 1936, losing to Bob Taylor. Those members of the gallery who followed the championship match from the start saw the more spectacular golf. Ripping off a string of four straight "threes" from the third to the sixth hole successive birdies on the tough fourth and fifth Cline toured the first nine in 34 but that was only good enough to put him 1 up; for O linger had bagged the first hole with a bir die and gained back one on the eighth. Olinger had a 35. Cline One Under Thereafter the going was not so spectacular as to results though there were some remark able recoveries from trouble, and a lot of grim battling on the greens in which stymies fre quently had a part. On the second nine Olinger caught up with his yoanger op ponent but went three down with a rush on the last four holes. Cline was still one under par at the end of the 18. In the afternoon Ollngec had several chances to pick up some of those three holes but his op portunities were nullified once by a wicked stymie, seveial times by Cline's brilliant putting. Suc cessively Olinger seemed to have the sixth, seventh and eighth "in the bag" but on two of them Cline sang long putts and on the seventh he pulled a "billiard" shot from the grove that almost rolled up for a "gimme" birdie though he missed that putt. Cline was 4 np when they started the last nine. Olinger Hooka Just as this Juncture when Olinger'a troubles were already sufficient he began hooking with his irons and thus lost the 10th and 11th and missed an oppor tunity to win the 13th after tak ing the 12th with a par. It ended o- the 14 th where Cline was pin high with an Iron second shot while dinger's remarkable re covery he had to hook one around the woods from Just be low the 16th tee was not good enough to match it.

MARTIN NEW YORK, Miy 20j - -Commissioner Landis jreeent questioning of Joe Di Mjaggio af ter reports that Joe's salary was only 98 per cent pure, wkth 2 per cent contaminated ! by agents af filiated with the fight jgame. Is just another indication of the un ceasing efforts of the old man of the mountain to protect the interests of ball players. And if It wasn't! a direct slap at Joe Gould and Jim Braddock, the two agents mentioned in the rumor, the Investigation j at least was a back-handed flip at the fight game as a whole! with its cut-throat tactics, which! include the slicing np of contracts until a fighter baa more stockholders than an oil field, i I Contract Cutting XQ Whether the ! commissioner would have concerned! himself had the reports linked Di Maggio with anyone not affiliated with boxing or horse racing, is a ques tion, although he made it clear that he would not tolerate any cutting in on a player's contract by anybody. The fact that he 1 lost no time In questioning Di Maggio is an Indication of low esteem In which boxing Is held. It is placed in the same class as horsej racing, which primarily la a gambling game, and no matter how pure a horse race or a prize flht may be from every angle, there is al ways some sniffing around to see if the odor is all that it should be. It was the gambling, element which was responsible fjor Lan dis being offered the position he now holds, and since that Black Sox scandal of 1919 he had done everything to his power to see that there Is not the f lightest hint of a connection between any sport which involves gambling or questionable tactics and baseball, which since that 1919 episode has escaped the slightest hint that everything was not as iti should be.
