Hudson, TAB CLASS O PlOfSlPA Sport Sparks By RON G EMM ELL Will Connolly (remember, he called our northern foot ball teams everything but football teams last fall) gives the impending battle of the Beavers and Senators a half column of space in the San Francisco Chronicle. It's worth passing along: "Latest, ignominy to be visited upon the Beavers by their own kind came to pass when game was arranged for next Monday night between the Beav er and Salem Senators ot the Western International league. "It seems the Salems, repre senting thecapitol of Oregon, be gan to pop off they conld whip the Bearers, whose occupancy of the PCL cellar was disgracing the city of Portland and the en tire commonwealth, "At the time the Salems were second in their league, & class B circuit, and the point was raised whether a good "B" club, -could put the cruncher on a poor double A' club. "This same levity was in dulged In last autuma by some Berkeley citixens, Who, upon observing the aad estate of the University of California foot ball,' peevishly suggested the Bears play a good prep eleven, aay the Berkeley Yellowjackets, ud see how the thing came oat. Will Foresees Sellout. "At first It was feared the Bearers, mindful of their class AA dignity, would refuse to sub mit to the test, for. If by chance the upstart Salems licked them, the Bearers would he laughed out of town. If they won, no credit would accrue. "But, lo, the Beavers, sore ly kicked around, displayed enough gumption to call the B' men. Rollle Schefter, son of the Portland owner, phoned Biddy Bishop of the Salems and set the date for Monday here la the Bearers own park. (Ed. . note Connolly was writing from Portland, there to cover the Portland - San Francisco series) . , "The game ought to drag in every baseball nut In the Willa mette falley. Regular prices will prevail and it will not be ladles' night. Manager Johnny Frederick will pitch Ray Harrell, his best thot, or Ad Liska, the submarine, and will pull out all stops to win, 20 to 0, if the Beavers can, for the honor of the Coast league. MJack Powell and Frisco Ed wards, PCL umpires, will work. The Bearers are taking an aw fal chance. With Salem, not the umpires, we mean. Baer Gets Revenge. Since siren an unconditional booting by onr Senator manage ment, Bobby Baer, the eccentric Portland youngster, has gained revenge of such astounding pro portions as to cause one to won der if he isn't even more diffi cult to get along with as an op ponent than he was as a team mate.

"Jockey" is the baseball handle of Frank Morehouse, the Wenat- chee skipper who is to be seen cavorting at the keystone in the current series between the. cellar-dwelling Chiefs and the skid ding Solons. The name was tacked on him by Bill Killifer, presume bly because of his small stature and scrappy attitude. Like onr own Little Skipper, it's Morehouse's first fling at handling managerial reigns, bnt unlike Griffiths, Fraakle has been a professional baseballer for bat six years. Griffiths has been on the trail 15 summers. Morehouse began with Lincoln, Kebr., In 1934, waa forced out of action In '35 because ot a knee injury and came to the Coast cir cuit with Sacramento In '38. The following season hs went to Rochester in the International, and In '33 he took his one and only fling at the majors brewing a cup of jara with the Phillies before returning to Rochester. Last year and part of this he worked the shortpatch for Holly wood.

BoogeyJBoa Doable SteiJ Is Largely Responsible Factor By RON GEMMELlT - Betarn to the home, pasture ecmed not one whit more inviiroratinz than road work to our Senators, who dropped t. their fourth straight yesterday' afternoon aa they opened tneir four-game home stand against Wenatchee, 3 to 2. f j Young Dell Oliver deserved a much better fate, for he actually out-twirled Wenatchee's Jack i Hawkins, ace ; left-: nanaer. in xact, naa it not:: been for n glaring miscall by a substi tute umpire that eventually cost Salem one counter and the failure ot the Salems to break np a dou ble steal that gare the Chiefs; two of theirs, the score would hare been i-1 in Salem's faror. j - 1 Mel Coe, Wenatchee utility player, and Hal Clemenee, erstwhile- Salem server, worked as umpires (after a fashion) for the first four frames operating In the absence of Bert Cole and John Nenexich, who showed up late be cause they were not notified that the game was rescheduled for aft ernoon Instead of night. He Called Him Oat Cole in the first inning called Eddie Wilson out at . third on a steal when Wilson was probably aa safe aa any base theft who ever dangled the paths. Brother Stere Coscarart subsequently banged a bingle that ; would hare scored him, and there went the run that would hare tied Wenatchee's first frame tally. In the sixth, with two away, Escobar on third and Bonetti on first, the old double steal that has been a boogev-boo to Salem all season shorted one run across. Second Baseman Freddie Knoll's return throw to Catcher Barker was too high. Another runner crossed later on JeweU's single to center after the side should have been retired. Oliver gave up the same num ber of blows as Hawkins, seven, but struckout seren to Hawkins' six and allowed but two bases on balls to three Issued by the fire ball lefthander. Also, four of Sa lem's blows were for extra bases while big Arnold Trailer's double that scored Wenatchee's first frame run was the only extra base ; hit off OUver. Coscarart Hits 'Em Salem, held to Coscarart!s first inning single and fourth Inning triple up to then, scored its first run in the fifth on Antelope Al Lightner's double and Eddie Wil son's single. Lightner, .who added another two-bagger ' in the sev enth, poled far Into center to score Petersen with the second counter In the ninth. Petersen had tripled against the rlghtfield boards. Escobar and Bonetti singled to set the stage for the double steal attempt that ultimately allowed the Chiefs their winning margin of ttfo funs in the sixth. Trailer had already filed out and Oliver forced Volpi to foul high to Har ris, making two away and Jimmy Jewell up when Bonetti and Es cobar started traveling. Barker's toss to Knoll was ac curate but Knoll's return throw waa high, Escobar sliding under. Had the throw been in there, the side would hare been retired scoreless. As It was, Jewell sub sequently singled Bonetti home with what proved to be the win ning run. Harris Helpless Salem's final inning rally, start ed by Petersen's triple, was nip ped in. the bud when Skipper Grif fiths, after Barker had beat out an Infield hit and Lightner had hoisted high to score Petersen, hit into a double play. who. wiiuam Harris was so helpless before Hawkins south paw hook and booming fast one that he attempted to bat from the tight aide his last trip. He had the same result that he had twice before from the other e 1 e a n whiffs. Today's game is again at 1:30 p. m., with tomorrow's double- header at :15.
