Qulnn, former University of Oregon baseballer, la one of the lead tug home run clouters of the WI loop.-4 (Statesman photo.) Sport Sparks By RON GEMMELL Where before there had been only occasional catcalls, disparag ing remarks and a few encourag ing phrases, there suddenly burst forth a swell of human voices that, unmistakably, was enthusi astic response to something the owners of those voices liked 'very much. This all occurred out at Sweet land, Salem's summer Softball patch, Wednesday night. The change in spectator behavior took dace almost instantaneously wun the chaneine of teams. "Where just before there had been two male clubs, and top teams of the City league, too, there now was the Pade-Barricks girls. The P-lis have taken over most of the softball following, no mistake about It. They hus tle. Jabber, play excellent ball and the fans love 'em. Only when the P-Bs are playing, with Doc Barrick out there In the third base coaching box and Manager Bob Keuscher across the diamond in the first base box, does Sweetland's stands fill op like they did in days gone by. Reasons Are Evident. There are several reasons, probably, why the mens' teams no longer have the appeal for fandoin they had back in 1933 and 1934, or for that matter, no longer ago than 1939. Undoubtedly one reason is that they are not playing the calibre of ball paraded In those days. There is no team in the City loop to compare with the Papermakers of 1938 or the Square Dealers or Walts of 1939. None of the 1940 entrants have the smoothness afield or the pitching which was on display when Pinwheel Percy Crofoot was serving up his amaz ing dipsy-dldoes in that colorful, always smiling manner he main tained. Number two reason, we'd guess, is lack of color. There is a void of Individual player color and there la lacking the vividness brought Into range of fans' eyes by team feuds that at one time highlighted the season's play. Of the some '60 players making up the six clubs, only an oldtlmer, .Third Baseman George Scales, still has that peculiar athletic glitter known , as color. Of the teams, only the rambunctious Kennedy Kids approach the color ful. Last, but not least, advent of professional baseball has un questionably caused a decline In softball enthusiasm. Per haps officers of the Salem Soft ball association would not ad mit such, but the fact remains that even softball sponsors and softball players are to be found at Waters park on those nights , mm V.ll. . i when; both baseball and soft ball are on tap.
