: Wilson Night September S la L. IL! "Gregory, sports editor of The
Oregonlan. We 4 note in part a- letter received from Greg, who has
known Black Jack as boy and! man,: and shortstop for Jbo famous
"Oregonlan Orioles," that mighty
I-years-undefeated baseball nine
on, which Greg himself leads the
way as pitcher:' Tickled to death
about 'Jack Wilson Night What
real v pleases me Is that you are
finally giving recognition - to the
shortstop of the Orioles. We dis
covered - him a long while before
Salem did. It's simply understood
that the I EAL purpose of the
gathering Is to pay overdue honor
to the top Oriole. Aside from that
Tm sure glad other people have
discovered what I have known for
many years that Jack Wilson Is
one of our kind of people. We had
even bigger ideas for hire than
manager or Salem, which ii no
Insult to Salem, either. The touch thing was to get. him back into the
rg-mnizaUon (Portland Beavers) which has now been accomplished.
They have seen for themselves ; what a grand guy he Is. Remember
our Orioles vs. Salem game of last year? Well, playing In oar Class X
league (with due apologies to all concerned), this bird Wilson hustled
"so hard thaf he bad one big - strawberry ' from his hip down his
thigh from sliding! How could we help but be for a guy like that?
. The 'night' is wonderfuL but don't spoil the man. There's still that
Oriole shortstop hole to keep filled, you know!" . . . '
. Confuting, but not amusing: Johnny Lewis' Aero dab Legion
team of Portland won It and lost but once during the regular season,
but came the playoffs and the Aeros dropped two games to the Dari
gold, a team the Aeros whipped three times previously! Another
example of those "Shaughnessyl style playoffs for you . . .
Midget are Coming Look Out for Heath
When the midgets begin their Hollywood Bowl excursions and
that won't be long now, for paving of the road and track will be
completed this week keep an eye on a Tacoma driver named Allen
Heath. This devil-may-care gent.
who either goes over I 'em or
through 'em If he can't get around
'em. Is top pilot at Portland and
Spokane, midget racing hotbeds.
Heath Is a wreckless, smash-bang
maniac when at the controls of
his buzz-buggy, we're told, and
r'ber drivers are having a woeful
time In not only trying to beat
the guy to the tape but In trying
to keep him from splattering! them
all over the quarter-mile tracks.
Speaking of the midgets, didt
yon know that the northwest Is
easily the fastest racing circuit In
the country? Ti true. In the east,
middle-west and southern Califor

west the helter-skelter boys flirt

II-River Ousted; 1st
Game at 5 p.m. Today
Darigold Creamers of Portland,
although in a generous mood last
night, and in their particular game
with Albany not the best defen
sive team in the tournament, kept
on marching toward! the 1947
State American Legion junior
baseball championship by down
ing the Linn county crew, 10 to
8, after Wood burn had eliminated
Hood River with a 3-0 shutout
in the second round of the Waters
field conclave. The Arba Ager
coached Portlands, needing but
one more win for the title, take
a blow tonight at five o'clock
when Albany and Woodburn col
lide for the right 'to tackle the
'Golds In an eight o'clock game.
The first game was moved up
from seven o'clock so that the
second contest, starting at eight,
might be over by midnight.
Should the winner of tonight's
opener come through in the se
cond game with a nod over the
Darigolds, a title-deciding clash
will be played Monday night at
eight o'clock. Tournament Direc
tor Ira Pilcher of Capital Post
No. 9 has announced. Such a game
is unlikely, however, for the
'Golds have their ace lefthander
Don White fresh and ready to go
in tonight's second stint, while
both the Albany and Woodburn
clubs have taken their best pitch
ing shots and still must play each
other in the opener tonight
Righthander Harley Piper of
Pete DeGuire's Woodburns un
furle'd one of the best I pitched
games of the meet in blanking
the Hood Rivers with two scratch
hits. Piper, using a good fast ball
and a wide-breaking curve
whiffed 16 H-Rivers, tops for the
tourney. He walked three and
never was in serious trouble.
Woodburn got a run in the first
inning, driven in with a long fly
by Eddie Kahut, and two more in
the fourth on a double by Dale
Yuranek, a single by Piper him
self and Bob Dahl's double.
The second game was one for
the books. Albany got but three
hits off 'Gold Pitcher Ken Jensen,
but the Movers found themselves
coming up with runs all over the
big arena as the Portlands kicked
in with no less than 12 errors.
Jensen fanned 10 to help haul
himself out of most of the bad
holes his mates got him in. Al
bany romped in five unearned
runs in the fifth when the 'Golds
must have set some sort of a
record by making six errors in
the heat.
Darigold chased Albany Starter
Junior Simons in the fourth with
a six-run blast, on five hits, ' but
the Albany fifth tied the score
at 8-8. In the bottom of the sixth,
however, Ralph Krafve singled,
Jensen clouted a long triple to
right-center and Dave -Powell
squeeze-bunted Jensen in all for
the two runs which won the game
for the Portlands. Darigold rapped
eight hits off two Mover f lingers,
and for other than the 12 boots
still looked like the classiest out
fit in the playoffs. , :
