    Salem, Oregon, Tuesday
You can come out now, Mr. Sol the Senators left town
early Monday morning; so there's nothing to keep hiding from.
Speaking of the Senators, their recent home stay was just
about the most successful they've ever enjoyed, and when the
boys took out for Vancouver they had it all figured out like this:
''If we can do as well against the Caps as we've just done
against Spokane and Tacoma, we should be leading the league
by the time we pull into Portland next Monday night to take
up the annual Portland-Salem
rivalry. That is, if Spokane can
five Tacoma the same sort of
entertainment the Tigers got the
last time they played in Spokane
won two and lost five.
Yep, the Salems had it all fig
ured out now all we can do is
await developments of this week's
play.
He'll Help Uncle Sam
That was a nice sendoff the
tOO-odd fans cave Jimmy Rob
ertson on Sunday when he came
to bat for the first time against
the Tigers, bat Del Holmes' per
sonal sendoff to Jimmy the last
time he came to bat officially
wasn't exactly a slap on the
back although It was a hit on
the back with a pitched ball.
But Jimmy didn't mind, as it
came during that terrific seventh
when Salem brought the house
down with that last Inning seven
run rally to tie the score.
The more we think of it the
more we feel that the navy is
getting a fine student in Jimmy
he won't hit much at least
with a bat, but how he does hustle
and fire It up.
Just about the finest piece of
go-get-'em we've seen happened
in that game Sunday when
Holmes attempted to bunt and
the ball blooped off toward
first base in quite foul territory.
Both Jimmy and Jack Richards
tore for it and when Jack saw
he couldn't get near It, encour
aged charging Jimmy In his
high screeching voice, "Dive,
Jimmy hustle!"
And Jimmy did dive, scooting
along the turf on his stomach with
outstretched arms and just miss
ing completion of what at first ap
peared an impossible catch!
Yep, the Navy gets itself a good
man in Robby, and when Uncle
Sam is through with him, we hope
he brings his dash and fire back
to play for our Senators.
The Top's the Spot
What s first place ball clnb
can do for the attendance fig
ures! Take the Seattle Rainiers
at this end, for instance, and
the Sacramento Senators at the
ether end of the Coast league.
Seattle picked up the recogni
tion of being the hottest draw
ing city In the PCX. when the
Rainiers were waltzing to all
these pennants. But the Sick
men are tripping around in the
second division now, and do the
red-hot Rainier fans stay away
from Slck's stadium? What do
you think.
But Sacramento, itself a push
over during the first two or three
weeks of the season, and on the
bottom at one time, has now
driven right up on top of the heap.
Result? Packed stands for the
Solon games the last three times.
Take even Spokane in the WI.
You never hear of those five to
eight-thousand crowds at Ferris
field any more not now because
the Indians are about as far be
hind the rest of the clubs as they
used to lead 'em.
Everyone likes a winner in any
thing particularly in baseball it
seems.
Wonder how Mr. 'Salem fan
will turn eat should oar Sena
tors hit the top?

Home After
Sac Whacking
LOS ANGELES, June 15.-(JP)
The Los Angeles baseball club
crept back into town Monday,
still slightly dazed from a five
game losing streak but hopeful of
climbing back on top of the Pa
cific Coast league heap.
Knocked down into third place
by Pepper Martin's surging Sac
ramento outfit, the Angels pro
fessed confidence of getting back
on the win-beam with San Fran
cisco here this week.
Commenting on the "collapse
at Sacramento, President Clar
ence Rowland said: "It was Just
one of those things. Our pitch
ing wasn't at all bad and our
hitting was average. But the
boys, it seemed. Just happened
to hit 'em right at the Sacra
mento players when we had
men on base. We're confident
of turning the tables on San
Francisco."
Manager Arnold Statz an
nounced that Ralph Chambers, 21-year-old
southpaw from Washing
ton State college, had been signed
for a tryout and that young "Red"
Adams had been sent to Tulsa for
more seasoning.

BROOKLYN, June 15-
Claude Passeau blanked the Dodg
ers with five hits Monday night to
pitch the Chicago Cubs to a 6 to 0
victory over the league leaders in
a twilight game. It was Passeau's
tenth win of the year, his eighth
in a row.
Not a Dodger got beyond sec
ond base and only two reached
that point as Passeau, facing the
1941 pennant winners for the
first time this year, handcuffed
them completely from start to
finish, leaving 15,159 fans load
ed with gloom. The husky right
hander retired the first eighteen
men to face him in order.
Meantime the Cubs, whipping
the Dodgers for only the second
time this season, landed on young
Ed Head, Johnny Allen and Larry
French for a dozen hits. Three of
these a double and a pair of sin
gles were collected by Lou No-
vikoff. Lou and Bill Nicholson
each drove in a pair of runs.

strong pitching of Henry Bush
man to trim the Tacoma Tigers 8

Western International league base
ball series.
Bushman pitched four hit ball
for the first eight innings allow

the final frame to give up five
hits and let across Tacoma's
three scores. Paul Soderberg
struck out the last man up as
the Tigers loaded the bases for
a last-out rally.

three doubles, with seven singles,

Ted Williams
CHICAGO, June 15 JP)- Ted
Williams, who a month ago was
plodding along the American
league batting trail at a .287 pace,
scarcely a shadow of the .406
with which he won the 1941 hit
ting title, has anchored himself
well up in the ,330's through Sun
day's games. That's not good
news for his slugging rivals nor
for the league's pitching corps.
The real contest thus far,
however, is between a pair of
second basemen. Joe Gordon
of the New York Yankees and
Bobby Doerr of the Red Sox.
Gordon's mark fell seven points
in seven days to .386, while
Doerr remained stationary at
.375.
Last week's No. 3 man, Bill
Dickey of the Yanks, dropped a
point to .345 and saw his posi
tion endangered not wily by Wil
liams' rush but also by Les Flem
ine, the Cleveland Indians' first
baseman. Fleming, tied a week
ago in eighth with Ted, rallied
15 points worth to move up to
fourth with a .339.
After Williams comes Stan
Buddy Hassett of New York,
.328; John Pesky of Boston,
.324; Jeff Heath of Cleveland,
.312, and Bruce Campbell of
Washington, .310.

It was all smiles for a few of our Senators as hey packed op Monday for the crucial series with the Van
couver Capilanos in Vancouver this week. Fresh from winning ten of their last 13 games, the Solons are
shown loading up. Left to right they are Alf Cailteaux, "Curly" Leininger, (in bos). Bill Johnson,
Bad Moore, Claude O'Connell, Bill Kelly, (behind O'Connell), Frankle Dierickx, Kenny Clow, Con
Rasmussen, (fumbling new bonnet), and Johnnie Granato. From the looks of things It appears the
boys are retting quite a bang eat of Kass' fumbling, although Granato seems more concerned about
a batting average.
Riotous Rally Almost Keeps
Salem Senators in Second Place
Dierickx Downs Schanz in 1st
But Seven Run Seventh in 2nd
Not Enough for Sixth Straight
By AL LIGHTNER
Our Senators were in second place in the WI standings
Sunday, in second place for two hours and ten minutes. They
got there after Frankie Dierickx racked his third straight vic
tory in the opener, 8 to 1, defeating Charlie Schanz and limiting
the Tacomans to five safe blows. That win gave Salem a won 25
and lost 22 record for a percentage of .532, highest it's been this
season. The loss read l acoma s
standing at 27 won and 24 lost or
.529.
Highlight of the first game,
along; with Dierickx fine twirl
ing, was another theft of home
by Bill Johnson. Bill slid safely
across right in the first inning"
for Salem's third run of the heat
off Schanz, and he had It stolen
"a mile."
And how close our side came to
adding another win in the second
game. Tiger Del Holmes went into
the seventh and final inning with
a 7-0 lead over an ineffective Ron
Smith and Salem's chances looked
as dull as the day itself turned
out to be. But the gosh-awfullest
rally ever to take place at George
E. Waters park happened right
then and there and before Schanz,
who came in from left field to
Holmes' rescue, finally got the
Solons out they had tied the score
at 7-all.
Cailteaux doubled, Holmes hit
Robertson. Adams batted for
Smith and singled, Granato sin
gled. Leininger flew to left field.
Warren singled, Johnson was
safe on Molitor's error, Richards
flew to deep center and Manager
Pete cracked a triple. Pete was
the tielng run with two out.
Schans evidenUy tried to put too
much on his first pitch to Cail
teaux and the ball went up
against the stands, Petersen
scoring with the tieing run. The
800-odd fans were by this time
going wild, as Tacoma had
pounded Smith for ten hits, and
although Salem had rapped
Holmes for seven, the situation
had seemed hopeless.
Schanz, already the loser in the
first game, now stood a good
chance of having his second de
feat of the day hung on him. But
he got Caliteaux on a roller and
"Pappa" Burton Swope, with the
trials and tribulations of his new
two-day old baby daughter behind
him, took up the Senator mound
chore.
Swoopie got by the eighth in
fine shape and Salem came to
bat. Schanz walked Robertson
and Swope bunted him to sec
ond. Then Johnny Granato, who
had surprised everyone in the
park, including himself, by rap
ping four straight bits off
Holmes, found Schans' curves
too tough and fanned. Leinin
ger hit a high one to left to re
tire the side, and Salem's
chances of making it six straight
wins, four straight doublehead
er wins, Swope' fifth win and
a second place slot went a
rlinumerinx. The win-hungry Tigers wasted
no time getting the winning run
in the top of the ninth, Swope
walking Lilly, LaForte bunting
him over and Rooney scoring him
with a single to right.
Salem tried hard enough again
with two down in the ninth, Lilly
having made nice stops on both
Warren's and . Johnson's hard
smashes. Then Richards beat one
out to short but Manager Pete
brought the rip-roaring struggle to
a close with his loft to Lo Forte.
The doable bill ended Salem's
home stay, and s right profitable
(in the win-lost columns) star It
was too. The Solons whacked
Spokane five out ef stx and took
another five, losing two, to the
Tigers.
The successful home . stay
brought the Senators up to within
three games of the first place
Vancouver Capilanos, with whom
our side does battle all this week
in Vancouver, returning to Port
land for an exhibition game with
the Beavers next Monday night,
thence back to Tacoma for a spell
there. They will be back here,

four are Dodgers.
Pete Reiser, batting cham
pion last year, continued to
travel by himself last week,

ahead of his Dodger teammate,
Joe Medwick, who was in sec
ond place.
Catcher Mickey Owen, in fifth
place, and Outfielder Dixie Wal
ker, in sixth, are the other Dodg
ers in the select group.

PCC vs. Big
On Track-Today
Coast Stars Favorites
In Spite of
EVANSTON, EL, June 15-(iP-Short on numerical strength
but heavy in power, the Pacific coast conference's track stars
are expected to score by a solid margin over the Big Ten's best
hi Tuesday's sixth annual dual meet between the two collegiate
leagues in Northwestern university's Dyche stadium.
For reasons of economy the west coast athletic heads decided
to waive their right to bring thel
first, second and third place win
ners in each event of their con
ference meet, and sent only the
No. 1 and 2 men here. The Big
Ten, however, will shoot its full
strength in an effort to break the
Pacific coast's five year monop
oly on this unique track affair.
While the westerners, large
ly by dint of Southern Califor
nia's crushing 85 point vic
tory in last Saturday's NCAA
meet at Lincoln, Neb- are
heavily favored to beat the
Big Ten, individual stars are
about evenly divided.
Monday the NCAA track and
field committee announced its
annual all-Am erican collegiate
track team, based on season's
performances, and Pacific coast
athletes took 10 places to eight
for the Big Ten. However Gwinn
Smith, California pole vaulter, is
not competing in this dual meet,
and Bob Biles, California jave
lin thrower, is out of luck be
cause the Big Ten no longer con
ducts that event.
Sponsors of the meet have
arranged three added attrac
tions. One will feature Corne
lius Warmerdam, the world
pole vaulting champion, who
will be sided in his quest for
a 16-foot ceiling by a specially
prepared 150 foot runway.
Another will be Dwight Eddie

TOLEDO, O., June lMVLawson Little, 1934-35 grand
slam amateur king and 1940 open champion, and partner Lloyd
Mangrum walked away with the eighth annual $7650 Inverness
four-ball matches Sunday.
The leaders piled up a plus
invitational's history, to beat out I
Henry Picard and Sam Byrd, who
finished second with plus 8.
In addition to the $2150 first
prize, Lattle ana Mangrum pocK-
eted $83.33 as their share of the
$250 prize for the low best-ball
score, which was deadlocked three
ways at 62, and another $125 as
half of the prize for the most
birdies on the 126-hole jaunt
They had 42.
The runner-up duo crashed
through to a nine-up victory over
Jimmy Hines and Herman Barron
in the final the most one-sided
match the event has ever seen
to leap from fifth place to the
$1383.33 second spot.
Here's how the teams finished.

Barna's Bat
Goes Boom-
Giants Win
PITTSBURGH, June 15.-(tf)
With the help of Babe Barna's
booming bat and Hal Schumach
er's airtight elbowing, the New
York Giants thumped the Pirates
6 to 2 Monday to split their cur
rent series at two games apiece.
Barna knocked in one ran in
the fourth inning with a triple
and sent two more over in the
ninth with his second homer of
the year. He also helped along
a run-making rally in the eighth
with a two-bagger. Schumacher
handcuffed the Bucs with two
hits for seven innings, then
eased np and coasted in with a
seven-hitter for his fourth vic
tory of the season. -New
