AL LIGHTNER
yet to wear Solon livery, bowed out trying his durndest, and
that's about all that can be asked of a fellow.
No one was any more perturbed over his failure to hit than
was the Antelope, himself. . . Al did about everything in the bat
ting book in attempts to regain the swing that netted him a .292
average and a new league triple record last season, even to work
ing out daily when the club was home, but nothing seemed to
work. ... Not even the spectacles, which he procured as a sort of
-a last ditch gesture.
It is probable the Senator management did Lightner a favor
by releasing him, for the sooner ball player realizes he hasn't
the equipment to ascend baseball's ladder to a point where his
: service&.demand worthwhile returns, the better off he is. ... It
still remains, however, a doggone shame that a fellow with so
much "give" doesn't have the natural equipment to "take" what
normally should be his just dues for the amount he puts into the
game. ' """ .
Oldtimers Snicker at Comparisons
Lefty O'Doul's comparison of the first base fielding ability
of our Solons' Charlie Bates with such all-time lb slickers as Hal
Chase and Wally Pip, and O'Doul's further assertion that many
athletes today are as good as were the best of the oldtimers,
brought the usual rnickers from gents who cling to the belief
there never, will be another Mathewson, Cobb, Tilden, Sullivan
or Heston. . . Anyone who dares compart Bob Feller with Rube
Waddell or Christy Mathewson, for example, is lucky to get a
patronizing smile from folks who knew Rube or Christy when.
As far as they're concerned, the Tommy Harmons and Jawn
Kimbroughts couldn't carry Willie Heston's hip pads, Bill Tilden
in his prime would have waded through Don Budge like a blast
through a funnel and John L. would have massacred the likes of
Joe Louis . . You can't aigue with these people with any de
gree of success, but a few records speak for themselves.
Take track and field, for example, where the 9.5s ran by the
Charlie Paddocks would be lucky to finish In the first three
with runners like Hal Davis, where the Paavo Nurmis have been
outmoded, where Ralph Rose's long-standing shotput mark of 51
feet has' been dwarfed to insignificance, where Charlie Hoffs
best pole vault mark was more than a foot under Warmerdam's
current mark and where no one ever dreamed of approaching
Les Steer's near 7-foot high jump.
Or, if you will, take a squint at the National Open golf scores
In the last eight years, where it will be seen that the average is
287 plus strokes an average of six full strokes less than the
293.7 strokes for 72 holes of play that was the average score of
topflight competitors when Bobby Jones was completing his
grand slam.
So, at the risk of being labeled a heretic, is it not equally as
easy to believe that Feller could outpitch Mathewson, that Louis
could outhit Sullivan, etc., as it is to believe that Steers could
outjump any man living 10, 20, 30, or 40 years ago? ... I think so.
First Challenge for Title by Brothers
While press releases politely stated that Leo Kallis, the wee
WI ump with the, "floating style" had resigned, don't believe
'cm. . . . Li'l Leo, who vowed he was headingfor the big leagues,
was given the old open gate. . . While his showmanship was high
ly acceptable to fans, his failure to discern the difference between
a ball and a strike wasn't to the liking of the players, Who are
iunny that way.
Question: "How did the judges and referee score the Louis
Con fight i"--M. R. .... Answer:
Referee Josephs Louis 1, t, 5, t, 10.

Stubby Harriman,-ex-Bearcat for whom Tacoma tried to
make a deal this spring, hooked on with Anniston of the class B
Southeastern league. . . When Buddy Baer fought Joe Louis, fol
lowing Brother Maxie's attempt to resnare Ihe crown, it was the
irst time in history that brothers had challenged for the world's
heavyweight crown.
' Goldie Holt, the Yak skipper said he saw something happen
in this league he'd never before witnessed in 20 years of base
ball: A doubleplay on a double steal attempt. . . It happened in a
Pippin game with Vancouver Holt himself cutting off the throw
at second, tossing to Shortstop tMadrid to get the first base
runner and Madrid heaving home to nip the third base runner
.... Must have been some sweet base running!
Williams Continues His
Stick Parade
CHICAGO, June 28.-(iiP)-It begins to appear that the Am
erican league slugger who ousts Ted Williams from his No. 1
hitting role will have to muster a .400 average, a figure the Bos
ton outfielder has monopolized for the last six weeks.
For a time Joe Dimaggio threatened to begin a climb that
would land him there. Then it
now It is Roy Cullenbine of St
Louis. - '
Cullenbine, battins at better
than .500 for the week, Jumped '
from ninth place to third on a
23 point gain. Averages includ
ing tames of Friday cave him a
mark . of AM, whjch was 17
points behind. Heath continued
to ran second to Williams. ,
Heath boosted his average four
points to ,377, but remained 34
, points off the pace set by Wil
JJams. The Boston clouter lost nine
; points and still flouted a .411 av
erage. " ' y ' " .
1 Other leaders were Cevil Tra
vis, Washington, .359; Joe Cronin,
Boston, .344; Dick Siebert, Phila
, c!e!phia. .339; Bill Dickey, New
' York, .333; Bruce Campbell, De
troit, .328.
Although Joe DiMaggio's av
erage fell off ' two points despite
his hitting streak in consecutive
games, he put together enough
long blows to take over the home
unstoppable force for J. Stalin
. . , Theoretically, at least, both
isms and their "generabsms
mosn would come to an end
when they struck. . And also
thinking what a nicer land-of
liberty it would be if some of
the fellows who try so. hard to
make? the grade had half the
natural ability ol some of the
others who don't. :
Take Antelope Al Lightner,
who Saturday drew his re
lease from the Salem Senators,
for instance. . The Antelope
drew his pink slip for 'failure
to produce what he was getting
paid for basehits, and the An
telope, being the kind of a guy
he is, was the last to criticize
the management even though
he hated it like the dickens. . ,
Lightner, the . hustlingest gent
in
was .Cleveland s Jeff Heath, and
run lead with a . total of 17. The
ether departmental leaders were
unchanged although George Case
of Washington had to share stol
en base honors with Chicago's Joe
KuheL, Each had nine.
The other pace setters were
Dpm DiMaggio of .Boston with 23
doubles,- Ken -Keltner . of . Cleve
land with nine triples, Charley
Keller of New York with 60 runs
batted In and Bob Feller, who had
16 victories, against three de
feats. Feller also added 1 4 more
strikeouts , to boost ' his league-
leading total to 134.
New York led all teams la
double plays," with 88. Leader
ship In team batting and team
. fielding still belonged to Boston
and Cleveland respectively...

from eight up at the .end of 28
holes. - - r
Starting the final nine with
Betty 8 up, they halved the 28th
in par threes to put Sissy dor
mie. Betty conceded the 29th
after her second shot lodged
alongside a tree and she fanned
a couple of times trying to bang
It out. Sissy's par-3 against Bet
ty's four on the 30th made it
six and six.
Then Sissy missed a three foot

the 31st The hole was halved and
Betty had the match.
In the morning Betty, aided
greatly by her antiquated putter,
set a new competitive women's
record at the rain-soaked Spokane
Country club with a 75. The old
mark of 78 was shared by several
women, including Patty Berg of
Minneapolis.
The record performance gave
her a five-up lead at the end of
nine holes, and Betty would have
been one up on the men's cham

first 11 holes.
During the day she canned no
less than five putts of more than
20 feet in length.

NEW YORK, June 28.-6PW
Sunny, Jim Fitzsimmons, the
friendly little fellow who likes
nothing better than to surprise
race-going Xolks right in his own
back yard, pulled another one out
of the hat Saturday.
Just a year after he sent Isola

Eight Thirty in the Brook

he stables his string, Fitz did the
same with William Woodward's
Fenelon in the 63rd running of

much the best In the mil e-and -a-quarter
that the 19,501 swel

handicap down almost to even
money. Fenelon was better than
2 to 1, second choice In the field
of six.
Your Chance, bothered in the
early going, -managed to close
only enough "ground to finish
third, half a length behind Arnold
Hanger's Dit
Mr. Fitz had his Sir Gallahad II
colt so sharp for this outing that
the four-year-old ripped . off the
ten furlongs in a snappy 2:03 35,
just three-fifths of a second off
the track record. The winner'

Warren Heads Slugfest;
Dierickx Gets Decision;
Two Games
By RON GEMMELL
Statesman Sports Editor f
It all began innocently enough out at Geo. E. Waters park
Saturday night. In fact, the little Western International league
fracas opened with all the earmarks of a repetition of Friday
night's pitcher's battle.
Then blooey! Our Senators
order, amply aided b7 some plain
ball by the league leading Spokanes, batted Ken Reid out of the
box with a seven-run bombardment that began in the third and
cuucUf mm -iota do svmm'swv i
was concerned, in the fourth.
Spokane, knocked off one-two-three
by Frankle Dierickx
for the first four heats, slugged
back with four runs in the fifth
and one In the sixth to derrick
Dierickx, and from then on the
game was In doubt until Roy
Helser, coming in to relieve Lee
Fallin with the bases loaded
and one away In the ninth, got
Pinch-Hitter Mike Budnick on
a hoist to center and saved our
Solons an t to S victory.
The win evened at a game each
the series which continues with a
6:15 doubleheader tonight and
which ends with a single bill
Monday night Skipper Griffiths
named Dell Oliver and Duke
Windsor as Salem's servers to
night while Manager Ray Jacobs
said Murray U ilynne and JSob
Kinnaman would work for his In
dians. Starting as meek as mice, the
game reached lionish proportions
by the third inning and all the
roar'wasn't stifled until Budnick,
who hit Helser like he owned
him Friday night and who was:
sent in to hit for Clean-up Clout
er Pete Hughes (of. all people).
lofted his high fly to Charlie Pe
tersen to end the game.
The Indians never did catch
up, thereby giving Dierickx the
victory, but they added a sin
gle tally off the little fireballer
in the sixth before lengthy Lee
Fallin came in, with none away
and two on, teput out the fire
and scored another In the ninth
before Helser came to Fallln's
rescue. ."' " " .
Rookie Jack Warren not. only
maintained , the sensational hit
ting pace he began when installed
In the clean-up role, by "belting
a double and two singles in five
trips, but . he also completed a
double play by tossing out a run

Spokane spanked four home in

Manager Jacobs immediately
called up Budnick to bat for
Hughes, a lefthahded hitter.
The - bases were Jammed and
but one was away at the time,
but Eddie Adams took a pitchout
and pegged to the Little Skip at
second to catch Billy Beard there,
and Helser got Budnick on the
high hoist.
The mask trap of the bunt
came uvthe seventh. Eddie Ad
ams laid the ball down in front
of the plate. Catcher Meyers
flipped his mask as be ran oat
to field the ball. The mask,
striking his body as he went,
turned over atop the ball'' Just
as he reached It -.
It was the second successive
night ,f or our Senators to break
out with a rash of base hits
getting 11 each session. They hit
for 15 bases to 10 for the Spokes.
Charles Baldy Petersen put on
one ef, his brilliant fielding-exhibitions,
.twice hauling down
what appeared to be extra base
knocks after long runs.
Bergstrom and Adams, with
two hits each, were the big So

Bergstrom's triple was
against the Stiff sign for a $5
bill. Chet Rosenlund headed the
Indian hickory parade, getting a
double and two singles in four
trips. ; ' "

Bests Palacio-7-6 . ;
With 3-Under-Par
Card in Heavy Rain
By GAIL FOWLER -
SPOKANE," Wash., June 28.-(VA steady drizzling rain
failed to dampen the skill of former National Amateur Champion
Marvin 4,Bud" Ward of Spokane Saturday as he easily won the
Pacific northwest men's "amateur golf championship! from Mat
Palacio, jr of San Francisco in a 3 6 -hole final, 7 and 6. v
While Ward was three under par for the day, Palacio, who
yesterday had a four-under par, round, apparently had burned
himself out, and he couldn't cope with the 26-year-old Spo
kaneite. '' - - r , ' ' ." . .. r '..
Ward merely shrugged at the rain. Tve never played in a
tournament yet that it didn't rain
at least one 'day," he said. He
started his golf career in rainy
Olympia. .
Palacio blamed his putting. "I
was looking up," He laughed' In
recalling the naval reserve re
jected him recently for "defec
tive eyesight" .t
"The way I was looking up
ought to qualify me for anti
aircraft" Palacio, who makes and smokes
his own 25 cent perfectos, said
he expected to be drafted into
the army shortly after his return
to San Francisco.
They opened in ding-dong
fashion. Ward taking the par 4
first hole with a birdie and yield
ing the second to Palacio's birdie
three.
Mat took his only lead of the
day at third, where he went one
up with a birdie four.
Ward came back with a couple
of pars to win the next two holes
for a one-up lead, and he went
two ahead at the 196-yard sev
enth when he canned his chip
shot for a birdie deuce. Palacio
birdied the eighth with a four and
they halved the ninth to turn with
Ward one up. T
A pair of par sent Ward
ahead at the 10th and 11th for
a three up lead. Palaelo
trimmed It at the 15th br tank
ing a 30-foot putt for a birdie
three, but he was three down
again at the 17 th when Ward
stymied him. They halved the
18th In pars with Ward still
three up.
Ward won the 19th in the after
noon with the day's most spec
tacular shot and it may have
been the one that broke Palacio's
pick. v
Trapped, Ward blasted the ball
10 feet past the pin. It had "so
much backspin on the wet turf
that -it did a 14-yard Corrigan
backwards past the cup. He sank
the putt while Palacio's six
footer went astray, and the Ward
birdie made it four up.
They 1 halved the 20th with
fours. Ward took the 21st with
a four after holing a 25-footer,
while Palacio found the trees
with his second and took a six.
Palacio took the 22nd as Ward's
tee shot was to the left Mat tak
ing a par four. Ward won the 23rd
with a par four as Palacio was
short on his second. They halved
the 24th and Palacio took the
25th with a par, three. Ward then
came back to win the 26th - by
canning a 10-footer for, his par
five while Palacio was trapped on
his third.
Bud chipped dead for his par
three on the 27th while Palacio
missed a three and a half footer
and required a four, which put
Ward six up at the three
quarter mark.

Reiser Pressed
For National
Batting Lead
NEW YORK, June 2HV
Young Pete Reiser of the Brook
lyn Dodgers Is maintaining a
steady gait at the front of the
National league hitters, but it is '
beginning to appear that he will
have to sprint if he wants to keep'
first place.
Enos Slaghter and Johnny Mize -of
the St Louis Cardinals have
.been hot on his heels for weeks,
first one and then the other
steaming up close behind, and.
their tactics have brought their
quarry within range finally.
A week ago Reiser had an av
erage of .366, Slaughter was
second with .352 and Mize was
third with .342.
Since then Reiser has yielded
slightly to the pressure while
Mize, the 1939 batting champion,
came along with a great burst of
bitting and boosted his percentage
to .353, only three points behind
the pace. This made up for the
fact that Slaughter slipped to .342.
This trio had the race all to
itself. Behind them the best bat
ters were Stan Hack, Chicago,
.325; Nick Etten, Philadelphia
.317; John Cooney, Boston .316;
Jimmy Brown, St Louis .314;
Terry Moore, St Louis .313; Mel
Ott New York .304; and Billy
Herman, Brooklyn .302. ,
