Vikings Open Baseball Drills
A small break In th weather
Anally theirs, S3 of the 55 as
pirants who aimed ap for the
first Salem high baseball team
in three years yesterday went
through first-day diamond drills
around Olinger field. The hoar
long workout was in chart-e of
a substitute lu the absence of
Coach Gurnee I Flesher, who is
ill. !'. v
Although yesterday's opener
was but t preview appearance as
far as workouts to, the drills are
exepected to become lonter and
tougher just as soon as Mentor
Flesher appears. Yesterday's
crop was made ap mostly of Jun
ior leaguers who participated in
the city-wide program last sum

Woe to Beavers dept: "The Portland Beavers and the Oakland
Acorns open the baseball season March 31 at Oakland," writes Harry
. B. Smith in his San Francisco Chronicle Sports Mirror column, "and
the General Brewing company has arranged an informal dinner for
Ihe Beavers at the brewery on Friday evening, March 30. It should
be quite a party." . . . You said it, Mr. Smith, and the Bevos should
be well oiled up for their PCL debut because of it, wot? . . . Ere Kay,
major domo of the South River
road par paladium tells of seeing
some of the top billiard playing in
the world during his recent visit
to New York City. He watched
'Willie Hoppe and Welker Cochran
play two installments of their
' rross-country tour for the world
title but was equally impressed
-by the number. of cue fans who
didn't sit in on the matches. The
gallery looked about 500-capacity
to me, relates Ere, but it wasn't
half full either time I went. The
former putt-full pro has tidings for
the gents who find cigarettes
tough to find these days, too. Back
east, he says, there just isn't any,
period . . . It s only rumor around
the Vik Villa, but the reason why
Athletic Director Gurnee Flesher's illness, quip the kids, is because
of the showing made by his SHS grapplers in last week's "state"
wrestling tournament at Canby. The unseasoned and shapeless. Vik
musclemen won but two matches in the tourney. Despite their short
comings, Gurnee pegged 'em to do better than that . . . Anyway, the
Vik baseball ers are waiting his return to school so that diamond prac
tice can open both barrels . . . Speaking of baseballers, did youjrno
tice where ex-Western International leaguers "Pizin Pete" Jonas and
Clint Cameron formed most of the winning battery as the San Diego
Naval Training Station nine thumped Los Angeles' Coast leaguers
Monday? Former Willsmetteer Cameron caught the entire gameand
pint-sized Jonas hurled shutout ball for four frames after "Cotton"
Pippen, another ex-Coaster,' left with a 2-run lead. ...
Clatskanie Coach Sindberg on Protcl Too
Add coaches-on-the-prowl dep't: "I have been offered my position
back here at Clatskanie, at $2800 a year," writes Coach George "Sindy"
, Sindberg, the gent who skippered the Tigers to the state "B" hoop
c rown here recently, "which is as high as I can expect here, or for that
matter, almost anywhere in the state. But I am casting around for a
. better setup where I won't have to teach three or four subjects besides
coaching. My college major at Wisconsin was Physical Education and
I was good enough as an athlete to make letters in track and wrestling
and to play some football. I intend moving here only if I can line up
something with a good sized school equipped with facilities and ma
terial for fielding good teams right along. Anything you can do will
be appreciatetTyery much." ,
We don't know how much any of 'em pay, but the field of schools
now in the need for coaches is a big one. Klamath Falls since Marble
Cook's resignation, for instance; LaGrand since Cece Sherwood went
- Washington for another; Astoria now that Bill Bowers is out and pfes-
furists are on the prod for a winner just to name three. And Boss
man Leonard B. Mayfield of Coos Bay dropped in long enough the
ther day to tell that he was looking for a football coach. So if Mr.
Sindberg can sell himself, and not' for too much mazuma, he should
have too much trouble making a shift.
Incidentally, Sindberg adds that "Slats Gill will be pleased to
hear that my all-state 'B' center Allen Van intends to go to OSC. He
has been rejected by both marine and navy recruiters for three or four
reasons. He is a triple threater in football, also, and I understand he
is quite a track man." Listening, Slats? ,
PCC Grid Move May Be McCoy Thi, Time
rropaganaa oept: us strictly on tne "wnat, again? " side so
much so, in fact, that northwest newspapers gave it not over two
inches under a single column headline instead of a galley under a
" double-decked banner but the news from Washington State's Grad
'Manager Earl Foster that revival of Coast conference footballing in
' 1943 will be a major topic during the PCC pow-wow in Spokane June
11-12 this time might well be the McCoy. We talked at length on the
ttibject recently with Oregon State's Lon Stiner. Briefly, Stiner Is
I the same opinion he had when the blackout came the PCC boys
Amid go again just as soon as the green light is flipped on by the
member school athletic bosses. And we don't think Stiner would be
-. so totally sold on the revival if he didn't believe it would be success
f ul in all departments. No top-rate coach is anxious to place his pres
tige on the lock not even in wartime.
According to reports, sufficient manpower seems to be available
" in all member schools. The Northern division worry of being warped
by naval trainee-stocked Washington isn't such a worry any more since
4 Washington has lost nearly all her hot-shot footballers. Same can be
"expected of Southern Cal, UCLA and California down south. And we
never did believe much water was carried by the thought held by some
t grad managers that public opinion was anti-collegiate football in war
time. You have only to look-see how college basketball packed 'em in
on the Coast this winter to disprove that theory. How the sports fol
lowers flocked into the Coast league baseball parks at a record clip
last summer is another indication.
All 10 member schools will be represented in the Spokane con
, clave, and with added impetus provided by the fact that the war in
Europe may be over long before June 11, football revival, Coast con
ference style next fall might easily be a certainty.

battle pit by a city gendarme, final
reward for his deflated outing.
' It wasn't that bad for Georgie
all the! way through his heated
meeting with favorite enemy Ross,
however,' ifor Wagner won the first
fall. After playing bass drum on
Ross' back with his knees and feet,
Georgie used a body press to cop
it. llq was having his usual good
time in the second heat, too, but
suddenly ran afoul three consecu
tive e
bow smashes to the moot
from Tony, same followed up by
a pet Ross "back-breaker" body
slam ' and an evening fall. The
match actually hadn't warmed up
as yet, but it did in the final
frame? - s -
Wagneif loosed a barrage of bar

Referee Ivan Jones, as the melee

poke jin the puss by Ross which
againstrted Georgie on the way

boy again and that's about - all
there! was to it. The customers
camejnear shaking the brawl hall
off its foundation with their ap

right onjj were it not for the cop.
Both -Ross and Wagner exchanged
further greetings after the finale,

fields and McCoy's, Brooklyn and
New, York Giants, will have one
thing in common this season - -they'll
both be rooting for a Lorn
bardl. ' . . "
i Ernie,: of the Giants, is starting
his 15th year in the big show. Vic,
of. the Dodgers, will be making
his big league bow. Appropriately
enough, Brooklyn's Lombardir.is
the direct opposite Of the Giants',
with the single exception that they
both hail from California - - Ernie
from Oakland and Vic from Reed-
ley.
The 38 - year - old, 225 - pound
righthanded Ernie is a six-foot
two-inch catcher, noted for his
astonishing lack of speed. The
22-year-old, 150-pound left hand
ed Vic is a five foot seven-inch 1
pitcher, with a reputation for be
ing amazingly swift - - on the
mound. The latter was brought to
camp for a tryout by Scout Tom
Downey and impressed Boss
Barnch Rickey so much that he
was offered a Brooklyn contract. .
"I watched him for 30 minutes," j
said Rickey. "The boy has the
most perfect rhythmic pitching!
motion I ever saw. And he was;
pitching savvy. He has a let-up
ball for his fast one and a slow
change of pace for the Cardinals.!
If Lombardi doesnt make it, THj
