i V Jumping catfish! There ' seem
to be as many versions of "offi
! cial" Western International league
. standings as there are teams In
the league! Ten days ago we
received a standings release that
f purported to be "official" which
I showed Salem to have one less
loss "thari our own carefully' com
piled won and lost Tecords V.
We untlmately Ignored that. '
. Wednesday-' night ' a preBS re-
f lease out of Spokane said - a re
. - check of " the .standings through
' the' official' league statistician in
f1 Cflicago"Teveald the Indians to
- be on -even keel -with Yakima ih-j
, i stead of a', game behind and Sa-
lem. to' hart; lost one less game,
or 2f instead of 17 . . Two hours
- V later Spokane sent out supposed-
ly offieUl".'" standings which had
Salem right -back at the. old 27
lost stand. .
As far as this paper is eon
eeraed, .the Senators had won
29 games sad lost. 27 up to last
V - night and . their correct stand
ing tills morning Is. SO won
V and 27. tost '.or 29 won and 28
lost, - depending npon whether
' they .won or loot last night . . .
Oar " records, enref nlly .kept
" throughout the season not only
show thia to be the Senators'
- tree standing, tout, also the ,
i . pitchers? record verify it.
"". For instance, up to last night
Healer had wen 7, Brewer 9, Oli
ver : 4; - DaTls " S, Bolnila 3, de
sinence : 2 and. Fenter 1 for a
r total of 29 games won ... Brew
s' rer had. lost 5, Helser 2, Oliver
5, TJavis 4; Soinila. 2, Clemence
6,, Soule 2 and Fenter 1 for
a total of 27.
Up Goes Averages.
Our Senators and the Capilanos
(who get their name, by the way,
from a big gulch, summer resort,
etc.r . n ear Vancouver always
manage to stage a wild one at
Vancouver ... On their last trip
in the Solons hammered for that
26-7 win and on this last one
go on a hickory spree produc
tive of 4 4 total hits and a I'M 4
victory that totals 31 runs.
The Wednesday night frolic did
things to the batting averages of
eur senators, and -especially those
of "Cup-'o-Coffee" Eddie Wilson,
Skipper Griffiths, Bobby Baer and
Antelope Al Llghtner . . . Wil
son moved out in front of Wild
William Harris by one percent
age point, .381 to .380, and Grif
: flths climbed to his highest peak
since the first three weeks of the
season, .241 . . . Before last
night's game six Senators were
well over the .300 markUWIlson,
Harris, Fenter, Helser, ; Baer and
Clabaugh.
Question: Has Salem a
chance for the pennant? ...
Anu.-tVhy not? If the pitch
ing holds np, what team Is go
ing to outhJt and outfield the
Senators? . . Injuries, of
course, could play I havoc
especially If they were sustain
ed by either Griffiths or Baer,
for whom there is no replace
ment,1 i
Screwy Pass Rule.
Although it was Med wick who
cost the cash in the ! Cardinal
Brooklyn trade of $209,000 con
sequences, veteran baseball scribes
maintained that Curt Davis, who
just "went along" in the deal,
would prove more valuable to the
Dodgers than the Ducky Wucky
one ... With Medwick now in
the hospital, their assertions are
already coming true.
- - This corner nominates that
semlpro baseball ' rule j which al
lows the recipient of an inten
tional base on balls tq go clear
to second base- Instead of first as
the .screwiest regulation In a dec
ade . . Are the poor umpires
the fall guys who are to decide
whether a pass Is Intentional or
not? . v-. And how are they go
ing to, tell? ... It Wouldn't
take much of an actor to Inten
tionally walk a man and make
it look as though he just couldn't
get the ball In there.

In 8th Round
ChUls Chilean Godoy Vith
Savage 'Attack; Gets ,
Knockdown in 7th
! By SID FEDER
. YANKEE STADIUM, New .Yprk,
June 10.-VP)-"Ol&", Joe; Louis,
the 'butcher of the prize ring,
came hack, tonight. -'-
In zaethodlcal, cold-blooded fa
shion,! he took revenge on Arturo
Godoy, -the Chilean, who hurt his
pride by lasting 15 rounds , with
him last February. For seven
rounds he carved" the South Am
erican's face apart, punching with
as much devastation ' as he has
ever shown,, and .then, in the
eighthL he ended ".it. .-.i - -:
With Godoy, gallant to the end,
down on his knees for the second
time . tn this round . from what
seemed like a million of the cruel
lest; most savage blows the brown
bomber has everjthrown,- Referee
Billy jCavanagh 'stepped in . and
stopped the blood-letting, award
ing the king' of the ring a techni
cal knockout at one minute, 24
seconds of the heat.
! Turns Back 11th
Thus Louis added another to
his record string of defense of the
world's heavyweight champion
ship. . . This was the 11th chal
lenge he has turned back before
his reign began three years ago,
the . best any champions . before
him could do. was to hold the
crown j against five challenges.
This was brutal tonight. At 199
pounds, the brown bomber was
in the best condition of his career.
He was lighter than for any fight
since he chopped Max Schmeling
down In their return bout two
years jago. He gave away 2
pounds to the South American,
but It I could have been ten times
that. This was the Louis who sent
Schmeling to the hospital, who
ended! old Jim Braddock's career,
who mowed down Tony Galen to
In four rounds, who now has run
up 39 1 knockouts in his career of
47 fights, and who Is ranked by
many as the greatest punching
man the ring has ever seen.
Knockdown in 7th
- He didn't drop Godoy until the
end of the seventh round when a
slashing - string of punches sent
the gallant Chilean to the canvaa
near his own corner. Arturo was
up ati six, last as the bell ended
the round. He came out slowly
for the eighth and there wasn't
anyone in the surprisingly large
crowd; in the Yankee stadium who
didn'tj realize the end was near.
The champion met him in mid
ring and fired his bombs. Godoy,
game to the finish, but with little
else to offer against Louis cold
rage and desire for revenge, drop
ped for a count of eight. He came
up again and threw himself at
Joe, trying to get in close to hold.
But the bomber shook the Chilean
fisherman off and again drove in
with a rally. Down went Godoy
from a short, whistling right. Ref
eree Cavanagh wisely called it off
right then, but Godoy still wanted
to fight He chased across the ting
after Louis, trying to resume hos
tilities. He went after the referee,
arguing vainly to hare theJbattle
continue. ......
j Godoy's Pace Awful
By this time, Godoy's face
looked like a barbecued beef. Lou
is laid his left eye open early in
the first round, and ' from there
the blood poured out. At the end,
the crimson coated not only Go
doy, but Louis, the referee and
much; of the canvas. Godoy's eye
was gashed top and bottom. His
nose was a soft pulp. And the only
damage to Louis was a scratch
behind his left ear.
Everything about this slaugh
ter , was different from the . last
time these two met. ; Then, Go
doy's crouching style baffled the
bomber over j the 15-round route.
This time, he was straightened up
right I from ; the word go, by
straight lefts; and short, bruising
uppercuts. Last time and for-ev-ery
one of the 14 fights Louis has
had in New York np to now, Ar
thur Donovan was the referee. V
' But last week In a magazine ar
tide, Donovan,- so Godoy's man
ager,! Al Weill charged, - "pre
judged' the t fight. . A protest
against . his! handling tonight's
fight was lodged and the commis
sion (put Cavanagh, a veteran
"third man" into the ring. y v,
. Last time, i Godoy wasn't hurt a
bit by the befuddled bomber. This
time he was hit by everything but
the ring, backets, and he felt ev
ery, punch. ' , ' V--' '
The dead-pan dynamiter admit-
melodiously the strains of "Whe-n
the Roll Is Called up Yonder.,,,i
Mike Gonzales, coach, J finally
got. around to the gruesome" sub
ject of injuries they had seen on
the ! diamond, including 't such
meaty details as how tar the ball
bounced after it struck a victim.

one i recalled. "Marion said he

"He's plenty tough, and the

the seventh round, Godoy hit me
