Now it can be told : Bunny Bennett, the little scooter who
so many times during the past four years sparked Willamette
football teams when late in the game they were in need of a
little highlife, had one advantage when he matriculated at
the Bearcat school. . . Though handicapped by lack of size,
Bunny made up for it in experience.
Ben act t was a five-year nigh
school man, a secret he kept to
himself so well that he wasn't
found ont eren when he became
all-city back In his last year at
Jefferson high of Portland . . .
Uttle Bnnnjr played for Ver
nonia high as a- freshman, then
shifted to Jefferson of Port-,
land, where he again enrolled
as a yearling.
Among Salem high graduates
who are going to hare a try at
collegiate athletics are: Big Vera
Wadsworth, bespectacled football
guard, who has chosen Oregon
. . . Bill Butte, football tackle and
state high school wrestling
champ, who -enters -Oregon State
. -. . Bill Shlno, halfback on the
grid and half-miler on the cin
ders who hasdecided on Willam
ette, as has the Williams twins,
Iceland and Leonard . . . Rubs
Batter, all-state basketball center,
: -Who is ' trying to make up his
mind' between OSC and Willam
ette. After sereral chats with sports
men, this department a year ago
carried an open letter to the Ore
gon state game commission in
which we : asked' the reason for
closing the China pheasant sea
son in the raUey when, to us and
them, pheasants seemed to be
more numerous than ever before
... This year the commission
Tolunteers Its reasons before we
hare had opportunity to Question
gr "Two important factors en-
tered Into the decision of the
Oregon state game commission
in decreeing that there be no
shooting of pheasants in the -alley
again this year, reads
. the exclusive dispatch to this
department ... "First: Under
- . state game laws it is question-
- able if . the commission has
power to order a controlled sea
son on - China pheasants.

Reason number two, states the
dispatch, is that a surrey eon
ducted in the' valley by the Ore
gon . Cooperative . Wildlife ' Re
. search-unit. discloses that, while
the pheasant population has been
' on the increase, the higher popu-
latlon has sot yet reached a stage

- this research, output of the two
hatcheries in the valley J n s t '
about .replaces birds lost by :
mechanical kill (birds hit " by
nntos on highways, birds flying
into' fences and power lines,
etc), and hence the farms can
not be relied upon entirely for
increasing returns ... The re-
port indicates that no open

Dean, a smarter but slower
man, returned to the National
league today and whipped the
second place Brooklyn' Dodgers 3
to 2 on six hits after the Chicago
Cubs had captured the opener 8
to 5.
Dean, who voluntarily went to
Tulsa of the Texas league last
June in an effort to recover from
his arm trouble, rejoined the
Cubs on Sunday and this was his
first start.
He relied almost exclusively on
a sidearm motion that baffled the
Brooklyns and showed good con
trol except for a temporary lapse
In the sixth, when he Issued two
of his four ' walks. Occasionally
he tried a "fast" one, a shadow
of tire blazing ball he used to
throw, and most of the time he
got away with it. Pete Reiser hit
one out of the park in the seventh.

Brown-halred Betty Jameson of
San Antonio, Tex., the national
women's champion, was forced
to the 19 th hole today before sur
viving her second round match
In the women's western amateur
golf tournament at the Seattle
Golf club.
Miss Jameson, tourney co
medalist, was playing slender
Ellamae Williams, the Chicago
city and Illinois state champion
who Is the daughter of a Chi
cago professional.
The torrid battle ended after
Hiss Williams drove out of
bounds and required seven strokes
on the overtime hole while Betty
had a par fire.
The match headlined the day's
play, which otherwise was mark
ed by higher scores and more
erratic golf than had been the
rule earlier in the week.
The other co-medalist, Marion
Miley of Lexington, Ky., twice a
former winner of the tournament,
had little trouble winning from
Mrs. Frank Currie, Seattle, 6 and

par.
