Beavers Take 6-5 Overtimes :. For Third Straight Victory Questions 'n answerst.No, fBoy Around Keiser, you lose your bet Coin.' Jack Dempsey is not "50 or more" years old. He paused Ion enough while on his strenuous tour to celebrate his 49th birthday In Tacoma last Saturday. And speaking of Dempsey, did you happen to notice Jhe inch-long scar over his left eye? Same was started 25 years ao while he was training lor his historic scrap with Jess Willard and required five stitches to close. Dempsey says he weighed 180 pounds' for the Willard fight and that he thought - Willard weighed about 225" ; ; . So big things came in little pack ages 23 years ago and vice versa . . . .

Re the Orange-men of Oregon State, public rela tions dispatch from Quantico, Va., reveals Joseph W. Day, 22, whose . wife, Maxine, lives at Route 6, Box 650, Salem, .recently won his second lieutenant's commission at Quantico and is now taking ad vanced military training there. And in case you've forgotten Joe Day, which no OSC man could possibly be guilty of doing, he's the hard- running Tuiioacx wno was just about tne oest on tne coast two years ago, his third year under Lon Stiner. . . . And this from a femme fan by card; "Why do you argue so much in the baseball games?, I think if you'd keep your mouth shut part of the time everyone would be better- off, including your own players.

From Sojtbati v j Does Dlayini softball injure your ability as a hardball olaver. and vice versa, you ask? Yes and no. We believe softball playing is : definitely no good for hardbaUers, but hardballers turning to softball generally do no damage to themselves, and in most cases don't damage the softball either. Both games are in the "baseball" category, but shouldn't be. There's really a great difference between the two. j From a pitcher's standpoint, he can do things with a hardball ha can't do with a softball, and . again vice versa. In one game it's thrown overhanded, In the other underhanded of course. Useage and development of different arm muscles is restricted to either game. The balls used are of different weight and size. YouH find almost extinctly scarce those hardball men who believe softball not in , Jurious to regulation ballplayers, particularly pitchers. , The difference in the balls used reflects also to the infielders and outfielders. The weights and sizes of bats is another major dis tinction. Batters seldom ever see the "outcurve" in softball they'll always see it in baseball. The .compactness of a regulation softball diamond, particularly the distances between pitcher and catcher and from base to base, is so much different than in hardball that the art of running bases, very important in .1 .V!U 1U1C3 WU1U1 HJ lUUUCil UUiUUt 1CU UU UHT UB3C Ut KWC third on steal, wild pitch or passed ball lifts that much more lustre irom uie game. . h - - y - .- Baseball Men Say Don't Mix the Two Judgment of lofty fly balls in the outfield is considerably dif ferent because of the opposite "sailing" qualities of the balls, and infield taps are equally contracted for the same reason. The only softball quality which in our estimation is helpful to the hardballer is the split-second reaction with which one must perform in the com pacted game. At bat or in the field, the softballer must swing sooner or scoop up and toss the ball onitsway faster. Such traits do not hurt aspiring hardballers. - ' 1 But in passing on what we've learned from many reputable baseball men Red Killif er, Larry French, Glenn Wright, Johnny Kerr, Ken Penner, Ralph "Red" Kress, Lef tg 0Doul, Eddie Irish man, Mickey Shader, Jimmy Reese if you're going to play hard ball, play hardball. Same goes for the softball ers. Kids who wish for a baseball career should never mix the two.
