All that lead the boys are
spraying ow that stnbblefleld
oat la southeast Salem was caused
by a couple of H'Englisbmen back
in 18S0V Yea It was.
I wasn't there to see it happen,-but
this is somewhat on. the
order ot the way It went:
James R. Whiffletower, or
so well call him here, and bis
banting partner, Reginald- E.
Carson-Csrsoa, as we'll call
bias here, were discussing a
sad situation, for them, that
came about because all the
dukes, barons and other titled
men of the British Isles had
established private game pre
serves that prevented rucb
common ' mockers as Whif fle
tower and Carson-Carson from
indulging in their favorite
pasttlme that of hunting gsme
birds en the wing.
Muskets at that time had been
developed to the point they were
downright devastating to the wild
life of the Isles, and as a conse
quence there became such a short
age of game the moneyed men
were forced to establish preserves
so they,, at least, would have
something to take aim upon.
"Woe I ns, said Whltfle
towee. "Blighty, 'tis a shame,
echoed Carsom-Carson.
Whif fie Gets Idea.
They sat a bit, did these two.
cogitating, and while they cogi
tated and sipped toddies out of
tin cups Whiffletower toyed with
a elass ball he wore strung across
his waistcoat on a chain. Drain
ing his toddy to the last drop, as
was Whiffletower's wontv he be
gan bouncing the glassball in the
bottom of the cup Just one of
those things a . fellow will un
consciously do when he's think
ing right hard.
"I have It! exclaimed- Wbif
fletower, upsetting the remains
of Carson-Orson's toddy as
be surged to his feet.
"Either you do or you've- gone
daffy, 'tis certain," replied Car-
eon-Carson.
"Look," continued Whiffletow
er. "We'll get ns a spring, rig up
a cup something like this, one
here, use balls like my chain piece
for targets, put a ball in the
cup. pull the spring to release
the ball and have us some flying
birds to shoot at after all."
"Now I'm sure you're daffy.'
W h 1 ffletower. nevertheless,
went to work on his Idea and
soon he and Carson-Carson and
their High Hat club were fir
lag away at glass balls thrown
by a spring from a cup. Of
fline they'd glue feathers to
the balls to make them look
more realistic When the balls
were hit the .feathers would
fy.
rapshoot Pappies.
Thus it was that Whiffletower
and Carson-Carson, God rest their
souls, became the fathers of trap-
shooting. Of course they had no
idea they were becoming the sires
of such a shelling as is now in
progress over the Salem Trap-
shootera club traps. If they had
known, they'd have died million
aires instead of toddy sops.
After Whiffletower and Carson-Carson
had toddied off the
earth, their invention evolved
into a revolving trap that sent
the glass ball in different di
rections, with the shooters; not
knowing in advance where the
ball were going. This made
It more rport In sf more like
liunUnir birds themselves.
But even this, as the back
yard hunters improved their
marksmanship, became dull ana
a search was begun for a more
difficult target. In the lS60's
the first clay pigeon was tried
target made of day, baked In
to the shape of a saucer. These
J roved to be baked too hard,
owsver, and next "bird" to get
a trial was a cardboard ring with
a rubber balloon set dead center
within it.
In 188 another Englishman,
McCaskey, perfected a target
made of river slit and pitch
that became known as the fa
moos ""blue rock target. Me
Cawkey also Invented a revolu
tionary trap, and this trap and
this target standardized the
sport to a point where gen
tlemen and gentlewomen ad
diets soon didn't give a tink
er's dam whether they ever
went hunting for the real Me
Qaall or not.
Use Same Stuff Now.
Banging In this sport, began

Eddie's Homer,
i Assist Helser s 8th
By RON
Some hearty extra-base biffing by our Senators, com
bined with 11-strikeout hurling by husky Roy Helser, gave
them a 6 to 3 win over the Wenatchee Chiefs at Waters park
last night to open a four-game Western International series
that carries throusrh Sunday
Fleet Eddie Wilson, who
a mere .39 clip, hammered homeO
the first two Solon tallies one
with an -on-the-nose homer over
the rightfield wall in the first in
ning and one in the third with
Insty centerfiejd triple that scored
Charley Petersen, who had sin
gled.
Count 4 in 4th
Onr Senators put the game
away with a four-run burst in the
fourth, batting clear around. WUd
William Harris opened with a
triple off the ieftfield boards, big
Moose Clabaugh scored him with
a bingle into center, Antelope
Lightner drew a pass and Skipper
Griffiths was safe on his own sac
rifice when Pitcher Milo Candini
held the balli and watched all
hands pull up safe.
Petersen pickled a twe-and-one
pitch across second base to score
Clabaugh and Lightner, and ship
per Griffiths counted when Short
stop Ratto heaved the ball, away
at first base while driving Peter
sen back there after he had start
ed a double steal attempt.
Helser'g 8th Win
- In chalking up his eighth win to
two defeats Helser was in trou
ble only in the-fourth and fifth
Innings, when Outfielders Hank
Bonetti and Arnold Trailer, as
sisted by a spasm of wildness
upon Helser's part, combined to
hammer; in all the Wenatchee
counters.
Bonettl's bingle and Trailer's
well-slammed d o u b le accounted
for the fourth-frame counter, and
two walks and singles by Bonetti
and Trailer put the fifth chnkker
pair across. 1
Big Roy walked' but four
while getting: 11 via the whiff
method. '
Candini Allows 6
Our Senators got but six blows
off Candini. ace Chief chncker,
who bore down after that fatal
fourth to allow absolutely no hits
for the remaining four innings.
The win kept Grimtns' gang
on the tall of the co-leading Yak
ima Pippins and Spokane Chiefs,
two and one-half games in ar
rears.
A ladles' night crowd of 1322
paid its way into Waters park
last night. Tonight's game is set

Hit by Blozis
Tosses 56 Feet in NCAA;
TJSC-Stanford Battle
Is Set, Finals
By EARL H7XLIGAN
MINNEAPOLIS, June 21-flV
coueglate track and field s top
'muscle-man" big Al Blozis of
Georgetown strong-armed his
way to No. 1 honors in the 19 th
annual collegiate track and field
championship at Minneapolis'
memorial stadium today.
The sophomore giant tossed the
shot 5 6 feet inch for a new
American and nUAA record, a
performance which overshadowed
the great qualifying place battle
staged by the defending team
champion, Southern California,
and its longtime west coast rival.
Stanford university.
Stanford Indicated it would
make a great bid to crack USC's
string of five straight team vic
tories by gaining eight qualifying
places in tomorrow's finals, to
seven for the Trojans.
Mark to Stand
Considerable confusion sur
rounded Blozis' great shot put
performance because it was made
indoors, rain having' forced the
shot and discus trials into the
Gopher field house. The question
of whether the toss would be re
cognized, as an American mark
was considered lengthily by the
NCAA committee, with the meet
referee Major John L. Griffith,
announcing it would stand as an
American standard.
The rain which sent Blozis in
doors slowed the track to such an
extent that no race records were
threatened, but Norwood "Bar
ney" Ewell, negro star from Penn
State, and Clyde Jeffrey of Stan
ford served notice they'll put on
a great sprint battle tomorrow.
Each had a heat victory in 9.8
seconds in the 100-yard dash tri
als and in the 220-yard dash
Ewell won his heat in 21.3 and
Jeffrey, defending champion in
this event, took his in 21.S.

The 440-yard dash trials gave
