Sport Sparks Cy HON GEMMELL . When Yankee Bossman Marse Babe Dahlgren, heralded as the best fielding first baserr an in baseball, and shunt Joe Gordon over from second to first, such fellows as John Lardner, Dan Daniels, Hank McLmore, etc- intimated ihe winner of thre straight world championships was becoming a trifle teched in These same members of the 'fourth estate have since seen Gordon at work in his new position, and now they are acclaiming Marse McCarthy as nothing short of a genius. Savs Lardner: "I don't think he'll win the pennant, ibut I think hell win his gamble on First Baseman Joseph Gordon. Knowing Joe knowing what a natural born athlete he is IH second Lardner with emphasis. t there, is anvthine of athletic na- ' ture Gordon can't do, I'd like" to. . see. it. Harry . McCall, double jointed gent who wrs playing first base for Oregon when Gordon was handling: shortstop, replied, when asked what he thought of Joe's chances ol making good at the lb stand: "Well. I'm sure glad he never tried to. play first base in col lege." Could Do Anything, It may take Gordon a little while to ileam he can't go after every ball hit anywhere in the infield, as he has been in the habit of doing at second base, and he may have to think about his footwork for awhile, but it's your correspondent's guess the boys will be jrating Joe among the great first basemen of all times before, the season is over. The same thins would be true if Gordon was moved to third, the outfield or behind the plate. He might lack the experi ence, but that's all. In fact; Joe probably would have been a catcher right today if Billy Reinhart had had his way. Billy waited to make a catcher out of Joe, but Joe said no, just the same; as he said no to Prink Callison when Prink literally begged him to come out for foot ball. Gordoa is the kind of a guy who'd be amont the country's top golfers if he had decided to take up golf seriously, who'd be a good enough acrobat to get paid for it if he'd have stayed with that, who'd have been all American calibre if he'd hate stuck to football, who'd be smacking down pins with the best of them if he had gone in for bowling or who'd be up with the best of them in any form of endeavor that took muscular and mental coordina tion, no matter what it was. O Greenskeeper s Ace, Bill Schaecher, S i 1 v e rt o n greenskeeper, likes the Salem Golf layout very much . . . es pecially No. 8 hole, where he bagged himself an ace last Wed nesday . . . Speaking of greens keepers, the western Oregon and western Washington Greenskeep ers' association meets here April 6, and if you want to learn how to grow a lawn, just show up at that session. So Rapid Robert White, the ex-Bearcat with the tempera mental nature, may come into the Senator fold! ... If he does, here's one slightly used cookie who believes the big guy, who won 12 straight for Spec Keene last spring, will win more games than he loses in VI company. Francis A. Schmidt, Idaho's new grid mentor, is said to be a great football 'nut" of the Clark Shaughnessy or Tex Oliver na ture ... He is one of those with whom football is a constant pas sion a passion that turns large ly to attack ... If fact, the major criticism directed at him while he was at Ohio State was that he stressed attack too much.

The Cougars will present the hurried style that propelled them to the Pacific coast conference championship and the west ern regional playoff crown. . - ' ' r Wisconsin is more deliberate and used the bounce-pass in taking the Big Ten title and then repulsing three other aspirants for the eastern NCAA berth. Throughout the season, the Badgers were victorious in 19 of 22. games and Washington State,' after winning 13 straight, finished with 17 victories out of 18 rimes and a season record of only five losses in 31 games. Both quintets took light drills on the municipal auditorium floor late today. Coach Harold "Bud" Foster of the Badgers, labels the outcome of the: game which will determine a sucriessor to Indiana university as the; NCAA titleholder a toss-up in contrast to the slight edge gen erally j conceded the Cougars. The only casualty in the Cou gar camp, Capt. Ray Sundqulst, was declared fit by Coach Jack Friel and Dr. W. H. Bohm, team trainer and physician. Sundquist was thrown to the floor in the Cougars' triumph over Arkansas last weekend and was unable to play in the final half.

After clearing 6 feet 78 inches, Less Steers, University of Ore gon, bruised a heel on his take off foot and was forced to re tire but not before the had bet tered both the world and indoor pavilion records. Meanwhile, Guinn Smith of California was setting another record. He topped1 14 feet in the pole vault, which bettered the old pavilion mark of 13 feet 6 inches, set by Edmunds of Stanford in 1929 and Ken Van Tress of Cali fornia in 1934. Another record toppled in the 880 when Clarence Barnes, .slen der, blond California speedster, did the half mile in 1:55.5, bet tering the old mark of 1:57.8 set by Cic Palmason of Washington in 1937. Breaking another record, Wash ington swept the 220-yard dash, with Sophomore Bob Smith do ing it in 22.2, which was under the old mark of 22.4, set by Bob Kiesel of California in 1932.; The world indoor mark, which was bettered, will be submitted in an effort to have it declared official. Neither the California or Washington high jumpers .could approach his record mark, which topped the Washington pavilion figure of 6 feet 4Vs inches made by Humbert Smith of Stanford in 1935 and which is the same as the world indoor record credited to Byrnes of Manhattan in 1940. California topped pavilion marks in, the mile run, the 440, the 880, the mile relay and the pole vault. Washington bettered the pa vilion record in the 220-yard dash.
