PAGE EIGHT Tnn OREGON STATESMAN. Salem, Oroejon. Wednesday Morning. March 6. 1946 Salem Sports (it Lust Well on the Way Back to Spot in Sunshine By Al Lightner Get on the boat, brother the S. S. JSalem Sports is going places fast. And not to the dawgs, eith er. It's been tied up to that index long enough. Whether the natives are aware of It or not, the village is well on the way back to the snot in which she once absorbed a beau tiful, and lasting sun tan. New roaches, new stadiums, new boos ter clubs,- new ball club, new boxing extravaganzas all are . either already here or coming for sure. T"he old gal is really gilding the lily. The accelerated high school physical fitness (educator's pet handle for sports) program has already started to bloom with the return of Hoop Coach Harold Hauk, the addition of prep grid coaching goliath Al Simpson and the expected arrival of even more coaching help in the de partment. Superintendent Ben nett's stadium-building j binge is a sweetheart if ever you saw one. And actual work on the long needed asset to the town is due to start soon. The pigskin palaestra planned by Willamette i; for its slice of Bush's pasture rates tne senior grade stripes also. And Dr. G. Herbert Smith's dream Is due to come true right In step with the SHH stroll to the stratosphere. Many have been the remarks that new WU Coach Walt Erirk son will do a hangup job in Spec Keene's vacated brogans, too. Then we have the new Dad's club, membership on the mount ing side. The daddies have an iron-clad and rock-bound "move-the-tournament" plan to shove before the visiting Oregon High Schools Activities association hotshoti come basketball classic time, a plan that Is almost cer tain to see the 28th hoop party in 1947 produced in the spacious fairgrounds boss show palilion. This Is but one of Mvf major moves along the n ports line to be boosted bodily by the daddies. The1 professional boxing come back has already sold Itself mar vetously to the paying public under the guidance of Match maker Harry Plant and the spon soring Veterans of Foreign Wars. The town Is now an honest to gosh "good fight town" again. The same handle belongs to the village in wrestling. Matchmaker Elton Owen's bicepplng bees are right popular with the crunch customers, and a snappy revenue Is picked up by the village from ' - -V both the boxing and bicepplng1 shows. And last, but In the eyes of the multitude far from least, we have the neW Senators. The tieup with Portland's Beaver matchless and the Waters park Legislators are- looking forward to by far the best baseball year ever uncovered In the town. Class B ballgaming at IU best is the desire of the mothering Beaver for her new stepchild, and that's Just what the local diamond Dicks and Daisys are looking ' for. Yep, the K. S. Salem Sport seems to be going upstream, fast. f I R.ST TOURNEY TEAM: Tjif first tram to hustle its way into the 27th annual state prep basketball - tournament -at Willamette V next week nai this Oregon City Pioneer outfit The Pioneers open title rhaoing against Biker at 4:45 p. m. next Wednesday.

The Y is practically the same grt'd doseage as The T, only ; in the former the fullback stands a yard or two .nearer the cenleir and in front of the two wing'oacks instead of abreast the latter. Quick hitting cross bucks drool, from the Y. Simpson once wrote quite a rhagazinearticle' on that particular formation, scored i:ke sixty w ith it w hen he was at Ashland in 1943 and dropped it in favor of thi T when' he attended one of Clark Shaughnessy's coaching school in Utsh in the summer of "44. And incidentally, no coach ever shed more enthusiasm over a job as Simpon is spouting over his post at. Salem. He's really hot to go and can hardly wait to call the Viks out for opening drills. Aden Says Spokane Heady for Big Hall Year New Spokane Indians bi. boss IJwight Aden, a village visitor the past few days and loaded with vows that his competitive days in ba-eball are over, confirms the reports that the Spokes are next mrrimer anticipating their -heftiest yt-ar in the sport.

The fact that the lilt is to be played on the large senior high court will be of little advantage to either side. The 8th grade teams of both schools will again play the pre lim Friday despite the salted down title now -held by Leslie, after the first two games. Harry Foxes Battle Salem Friday - MT. ANGEL COLLEGE GYM, March 5-(Special) - Silverton' Silver Foxes, a . rapid - hitting gang tonight, eliminated Mt.

An gel, although licked on Ihc back boards by tall Glen Nado's in spired play and in the scoring column by Bennett's 22-point pa rade, weren't so far in -arrears of the Foxes the first three periods. Siverton, sparked by four straight baskets by Bennett, led 12-11 at, the quarter. More- hit ting by Bennett and Carl Wick ham, offset by visits to the Sil verton basket by Leon Berning and Jim Biclemeier, kept Silver ton out front, 23-21 at halftime.

Every one of the wild squabbles ended via the dis qualification method. Ross plucked his win, and a sizeable egg on his noggin, when Bruno went slightly berserk in fall No. 3 and rammed Anthony's hearl but resoundfully into a ring post. Referee Angello Martinelli tolled Ross out as hes lay cooling on the armory deck, but then de cided Bruno had jammed Tony's head when the latter was out of the ring, so disqualified the for mer. Lucky thing for him. he did just that, for the multitude was in an up-'n'-at-'em mood, and. had Bruno been handed the verdict there would certainly have been a sr.eaoie coupler to anu to tne i "It Can Happen Only at the Ar mory on Tuesday Night'' bulletin. Bruno had copped the first fall j with a stompcr hammer-lock and i Ross had evened the count inone minute flat with his punishing back-breaker body slams. Affable Al S7.asz look two straight falls over Earl Malone in the opener, winning the first fall on a foul when Earl got too rough and the second when he bow-arxi-arrowod spectacularly' from out side the ring to flatten Malone. The scrni went to Fre'nchy- La Bclle via foul over Paavo Katon cn, the latter subbing for Joe Lynam. Joe came down with an attack of malaria yesterday morn ing. LaBolle recc tved a badly gashed eye from Kctonen's elbow smashes in the first, fail, tied the count with a leg clutch hold in j No. 2 and then won the brisllcr I when Katicn insisted on "work- ing" on the wounded eye in No. 3.
