Bill Bowerman openly predict ed Johnson would break the 440 mark before the race, and wasn't the least bit surprised. He's a sweet runner that Johnson, and had he properly warmed up for it would hare won the 220 also. The hard running youngster has another season left, so watch out for a still lower 440 mark. He took tire-tenths of a second off it ithis year and should take as much off next. Too Many LBs. LBs, short for left on bases. are too many in games played by our Senators. A total of 99 were left stranded in the 11-gsme home stand, an average of 11 per game ana almost twice as many as opponents despite the fact the Senators won seven of the 11. For the calibre of clouters, potentially, at least, that Is too many LBs. Some of the boys capable of pasting; the ball harder than they have been. Including Moose Cla baugh and Charley Petersen, haven't yet hit their strides. Petersen last season hit a neat 2S8, and should be up there tills season before it progresses much further. The Moose, if he's going to be of any real value to our club, lias to whale the agate at a far bet ter clip than currently. Skipper Bunny Griffiths isn't clubbing at his normal rate -yet. either, and is due for improve ment. But what Bunny lacks in hitting power he more than makes up for in fielding that skortpatch and in out-maneuver ing the opposition. Make no mis take about that. He's easily the class of -the league at short Stronger than that, he's as good a shortstop as there is in the Coast loop. If he could have hit he would have been up there In Frankle Crossettl's spot with the lankeea today. They had him four years in the chain, and they repeatedly told him all that was Stopping his move into the big band was lack of punch at the plate.' . Loads of Legion Boys. Ethan Grant, the Legion Jun ior baseball bossman here In Salem, comes up -with the sta tistics that no less than 72, or about one fifth of the ball play ers In the American and National leagues, are graduates of Junior Legion baseball. Ten are with the Philadelphia Athletics. which fact Grant sees as a possi ble reason why Connie Mack's club is not this year la the eetlar yet. The Washington Senators have seven and each of the other major league clubs has four or more except Brooklyn and the Boston Bees. "Several hundred other boys whose careers began with Junior Legion teams are on the way up through the' minors," says Grant. Many of these boys are Pregoa lans. some of whom appeared In the state playoffs at Hills boro last year. -And while I am at it," Grant continues, "let met pre-' diet - Salem's Junior Legion roster includes at least four players who. If they stick, will fjrn minor league contracts before the gees go south gain. Adding to Grant's statistics, at least eight of the current It nan Senator squad got Ameri can Legion Junior starts.
