"Lefty" Gene Fenter, the
Portland youngsters who made
his professional baseball debut
with our Senators last season
before he had finished high
school, at 183 "is now 15 pounds
heavier than at any time during
the 1940 champaign . . . Gene,
who . finished up his prep school
work this winter, won six and lost
10 last season despite the fact he
was the victim of terrible support
almost every time he toed the rub
ber. The pitching poise and coolness
under fire exhibited by Fenter last
season caught the eyes of scouts
and opposing managers ... The
Spokane Indians, who had Fenter
during the spring training period
of the 1940 season but who turned
him loose, offered two ball play
ers for him this year.
Fenter should be somewhat
quicker this season, what with
the added weight, and If he can
get control down may be quite
a factor In Salem's pennant
chasing hopes . . . His deficits
last season, listed in order of
Importance, were control and
speed.
Sobbing Again,
From- the way he is wringing
the towel these days, it would be
a pretty fair bet that "Gloomy
Gus" Gilmore's Salem high scant
clad corps will place in the state
high school track and field meet
monday this year . . . The guy
shed gallons of . tears during the
boxing and wrestling seasons, only
to come up with state champion
ships in both, and now he is sob
bing like a lost soul over lack of
material on his cinder squad.
'Dick Bishop, who started out
as the regular receiver for our
Solons last season, but who had
to give up when an old football
shoufder tightened up like a dried
out rawhide thong as soon as he
started playing night ball, is cur
rently coaching Reed college's
baseball squad . . . "I've got the
smartest baseball team in the
country but not about baseball,"
says Dick.
. Don't be surprised if, when
Wenatchee opens against Salem
here May 1, a 205-pound 6-foot-3
gent is on the mound for the
Chiefs . . . The Wigwam thinks
- It has quite a chucker In Wee
Wally Ewing, picked np as a
free agent after, he had done a
stretch la the navy.
Power, Bunny?
How many chances does a
shortstop accept in 16 consecutive
seasons? ... In Skipper Bunny
Griffiths, case, 11.021 . . . Grif
fiths has a 16-year batting mark
of .278 and fielding mark of .951
. . . His best bludgeoning was in
1934 with Wilkes-Barre of the
old New York-Pennsylvania cir
cuit, when he hit .317, while he
compiled his best fielding record
with the same club in 1935, .965.
The Little Skipper cam expect to
hit a double every sixth game or
once in every 25 times at bat, ac
cording to his average for 16 years
. . . He has collected a total of
303 two-ply knocks in 7095 times
at bat in 1917 games.
On the same basis, he can ex
pect a home run every 119th
game or every 443rd time at bat
... Bonny has belted but 16 in
16 years, and two of them (or
one-eighth of the total) came
last season ... Mahbe he's getting-
more powerful with the
years, huh?
Angels Receive
Storey, Memllo
LOS ANGELES, April l.-yp)-
me tjrucago cuds turned over
Len Merullo, shortstop, and Har
vey Storey, for whom they gave
San Francisco $50,000, to the Los
Angeles club today.
Los Angeles will use Storey, a
shortstop, in the outfield, and Me
rullo, who. was with Tulsa last
year, will do the shortstopping.
Merullo is rated by Manager Jim
my Wilson of the Cubs as a field"
er of major league caliber, but in
need of another year of seasoning.
During ; that time, Wilson thinks,
he can improve his batting.

Jocks Bribed
ToTidVNags
LOS ANGELES, April l.-P)-Irving
Sangbusch, one of six men
originally charged with bribing
juekeys to lose horse races on
California tracks, testified ; today
he paid four riders thousands of
dollars during the 1939 Holly
wood park season to "pull" their
mounts.
Sangbusch, who turned state's
evidence after charges against
him were dismissed, declared the
jockeys were paid $200 for each
race in which they caused their
horses; to lose, at the direction of
other defendants, for whom he
testified he acted as agent.
He said he received funds for
payment of bribes to Jockeys from
Bernard Elnstoss, known in
sporting circles as. Barney ; Moon
ey, on 25 different days daring
the 1939 Hollywood park season,
and from Elnstoss' brother, Wil
liam, and L W. Kivel on five eth
er days.
On one occasion, Sangbusch
testified, "when the jockeys were
clamoring for $2500 or $3000 that
was owed to them," he was un
able to reach Bernard Einstoss
and finally obtained the sum from
Benjamin Chapman, another de
fendant. Angel Olympics

SEATTLE, April l-W-Al Hoslak, Seattle, former NBA
recognized world middleweight champion, battered his way
another step up the comeback ladder here, tonight with a 'third
round technical knockout victory over Ben Brown of Atlanta, Ga.
The fight was stopped as Brown went down 'for the third
time in one minute seven seconds of the round. Brown weighed
163; Hostak 161.

46-state title he lost last summer
to Tony Zale of Gary, Ind., and
his first jubilant' exclamation aft
er his victory tonight was: "Just
let me get another crack at Zale."
It was the first .time Brown
ever had lost a fight by a knock
out or technical knockout.
Hostak won a bare edge in the
first two rounds, but a right
hand explosion burst in the face
of the taller, heavier and longer
reaching southerner in the third.
The round was barely a half
minute old when Hostak's flurry
of rights floored Brown for a nine
count. The big six-footer had
come out for the round with a
bobbing, weaving style, and Hos
tak turned him with a hard right
to the jaw, then shifted, cat-like,
to a better position to catch him
while he was still wavering.
Brown was groggy as he rose
and tried to cover up. He went
down for a bare one count as
Hostak's terrific left caromed
from his shoulder and his head.
A dynamite righthand blow to
the jaw put Brown down for the
third time and Referee Tommy
Clark stopped the fight without
even starting a count.

close to 9000, saw the fight
