Pickups from the Portland Open last weekend: General comment

Congdon, the Tacoma swatter,
whose previous glory had been
confined te the links .trails of the
Northwest wasn't sure of that
$2ooa first money until he aank
a 12-foot putt on the 17th Sun
day. Chuck, whose putting, In

and as expressionless as Joe Lou

that putt dribbled In the Taco

elincher for his mouth relaxed
In a broad and beaming grin . . ,
Ben Hogaa wasn't the grim and
machine-like guy of a year ago
when the captured the PGA. As

SHwh hopes of catching Congdon, Johnny Palmer, etc., so there wasn't
much pressure on 'Im, And. actually, you gained the impression that
Hegan enjoyed the let-up on his nerves even though f 2000 is very
nice pocket dough . . . Most noticeably off In Ben's game were his
ben efforts. He wasn't pin-pointing 'em as la the '45 and '41 meets
at Portland when a two-putt for him was Indeed news . . . Good
port: Lou Worsham. They said, after Lou grabbed the National Open
from Sammy Snead by Interrupting a Snead pott with a measure
ment request, that Worsham was either guilty of poor sportsmanship
or else was a d good disciple of psychology. It must have been
the latter for Worsham had devilish' luck Sunday, rimming the eup
time and again and poking one in a creek. Tet he always eame op
sailing . . . Big Jim Ferrier, who is plodding and uncommunicative
on the links, didn't make himself anymore popular with certain spec
tators when he Insisted on belting practice balls after the gallery had
Intruded on the practice range while following Hogan. Ferrier told
Vsb to more and when they didn't he was smacking screechers barely
above their heads. Needless to say he was the recipient of some nn-
romplimentary remarks . . . And Bob Hudson, the genial and effu
sive tourney sponsor, must have made some ears burn In the radio

expletives over the air during the prise presentations ...
Substitution Nightmare
After eyeing the Los Angeles Don-Brooklyn Dodgers pro grid
game Sunday we shudder when we think of the plight of the gents
who'll air college games this fall. For that unlimited substitution rul
ing can be so overworked as to make a farce of a fray. The pros must
have averaged 1 14 substitutions per minute and it was tiresome to
the casual onlooker, let alone toe guys muttering Into the mikes in
the broadcasting booth. Even experienced 'caster Johnny Carpenter
couldn't entirely keep pace with the endless stream of huskies who
charged to and! from the benches . . . The new rule will probably
help the collegians strategically but It'll take the customers a while
to appreciate that . . .
Record books are cold and irritatingly permanent sometimes and
- It's too bad that 20 earned runs Dick Sinovic had chalked against him
; In that first-game debacle the other night must be entered in the
rarned-run average column. Dick just didn't have it that evening,
fcat it was either him or the bat boy to face Yakima, considering the
Senators alarming scarcity of hurlers ...

Hunk Winner,
Wyatt Loser
Club Hits Road
For Final Trip
By AL LIGHTNER
The town Senators and Yaki
ma's certainly unpredictable Stars
again divided their twin offering
at Waters park last night, this
time Salem taking the opener on
Hunk Anderson's five-hit fling
ing and Eddie Barr's game-winning
single in the seventh, 4 to 3,
and the Yaks nabbing the totally
exasperating nightcap, 4-1. Net
results: Salem still in third place,
thanks to Vancouver's win-. over
Victoria, and but two games jout
of second and 2Vt out of first
Victoria is three percentake points
below the J. Wilsons.
How the townies keep on cling
ing to their precarious first divi
sion berth actually amounts to
one of the modern baseball
miracles. With the other strength
ened upper division dubs hotter
than Roy Rogers' pistol and Sa
lem, playing punchless baseball
and badly in need of help but not
getting it,Jt amounts tec at least
a miracle." The big test comes
within the next 10 days as the
club opens its last road stand of
the season, starting tonight in
Yakima. From there it's :to Spo
kane and then to Wenatchee be
fore coming home to end the cam
paign. If the gang can hold its
own on the road it still will have
a chance at that flag in spite. of
the obstacles, for the final 13
games, 10 with Spokane and
Bremerton, are ticketed for the
friendly premises of the home
yard.
Anderson had some pitching to
do in the opener, but he did it
when it was needed and came out
with his ninth victory. Were it
not for a walk and then Spencer
Harris' homer for two runs in
the fifth Hunk would have breez
ed in. Locked at 3-3 with Keith
Simon in the final frame Ander
son emerged winner when Simon
walked Al Spaeter to open the
frame, and then gave up a ground
single, to center to Barr after
Spaeter had moved to second on
Lou Kubiak's sacrifice.
The Solons could have built
themselves a cushion to take with
them on the road in the second
game had they won it, but went
entirely berserk and left no less
than an almost unbelievable 17
potential runs stranded on the
bases! Yakima got to Kenny
Wyatt for an unearned run in the
first and two earned tallies in
e second, but all the Sal ems
uld retaliate with was a single
counter on three hits and a walk
in the third inning.
Knuckle-ball tossing Frank
Knpwles, in for Fritz Romple in
the fourth inning, was in trouble
in every frame but hurled his way
out in just as many. Salem biffed
eight hits and were given 11 bases
on balls to go with them, but no
one could produce in the clutch.
It was at least one man, and
mostly two or three left on base
every inning in this dreary drawn
out mes.
Gene Peterson finished up for
Wyatt in the last two frames and
yielded the final Yak run in the
ninth on two walks and a hit, but
Wyatt was charged with the loss,
his tenth . . . Romple retired
suddenly in the fourth with a
3-1 lead because of an ailing
shoulder . . . Although it might
have helped him pitch his way out
of the bad spots, and he had
plenty of them, Knowles was by
far the slowest worker to hit the
Waters hillock this season. Thank
goodness there are few like him
in the league . . . Salem announced
the signing of Hal La Roy, 6
foot 2-inch pitcher, before the
games. LaRoy was in the Cas
cade league last season and this
semester had a whirl with Ogden
in the Pioneer league before get
ting released. A hard-throwing
righthander, the big boy might
be much help if he can get going
with the Wilsons ...

Macs' Earn Ticket
to State Softy Show
McMINNVILLE, Aug. 20-(Special
)-A scrappy gang represent
ing Conn's Furniture of McMinn
ville captured the district five ti
tle and a ticket to the state soft
ball tourney at Corvallis Sunday
as they nosed an equally hard
fighting Salem Warner Motors
crew, 3-2, here tonight. The game
was the third of a two-out-of-three
set.
Pitcher Keith Marshall hurling
his 3d game in three nights
was the big man on the "Mac"
club tonight as he's been all
through the playoff series. He
threw a six-hit job at the Salems
and ept the Conns in the game
with a two-run homer in the third
off Percy Crofoot. Crofoot him
self permitted the "Macs" but
five blows and the winner off
him in the 6th was unearned. That
gold-laden tally came as Currier
walked, stole second, moved to
third on an infield out, and scored
as Warner Third-sacker Bud Nel
son uncorked a wild throw on a
play at first.
The two Warner tallies came
in the second frame via three er
rors and , singles by Dick Mase,
Nelson and Dan Morley. Morley
paced the Motor attack with three
blows.

Indians Regain
Leading Slot
By the Associated Preis
The Spokane Indians once more
climbed back to the top of the
Western International league
standings last night as they earned
a 2-1 triumph in 12 innings over
the suddenly tough Wenatchee
Chiefs. The win pulled the In
dians one-half game above the
Bremerton Tars, erstwhile lead
ers, who bowed to the Tacoma
Tigers, 7-5, in 11 innings. The
Vancouver Capilanos got back in
the win groove by beating the
Victoria Athletics, 12-7, with the
aid of a 16-hit attack. Vic Mas
tro hammered a homer, triple
and double for the Vies.
Spokane's winning counter in
the 12th came on two walks and
Georee Bufflap's single.

Oval Mark Due Friday
Since Friday night's midget racing- meet at Salem's Hollywood
Bowl will be the all-time Inaugural for the newly-built and pared
quarter-mile aval, all winniag times wHI go into the books as track
records. And there has been considerable talk among racing men
and Promoter Jlmmle Ryan as to just what the single-lap record
will be. The Salem oval. In the eyes of the midget pilots and Ryan,
"should be the fastest track on the Coast" Consequently, the
roaring runts are expected to maneuver the J0-foot wide runway
and sharply banked turns in well under the 20-second mark, which
Is near standard time for midgets on other tracks in the North
west. "I wouldn't be surprised to see the record established at nearly
IS seconds." Ryan said yesterday. "And if it is. I'll put It up against
any midget racing time turned In for a quarter mile track In the
country."
Friday's inaugural will start with 7:30 o'clock time trials. The
helmet dash, heat races and main events start at t:3t o'clock.
