Practically the entire session was devoted to 12 innings of competi- Kollm' Along By Jerri Stone Too bad: That Salem's Senators, so terribly hindered in their spring training period by the lousy weather, couldn't have had the benefit of some of that California sunshine. And why. not? The par ent Portland Beavers' Riverside camp, now vacated for two weeks, would have filled tbo Solou bill to perfection. It would have meant some additional financial outlay en the part of said Beavers but JOCK SI THERLANTJ . Jock Sutherland was If years removed from the peak of his coaching career when the time came for htm to die the other day. They sometimes say that a man has a better chance to be remembered if he passes from the scene when his career is In full bloom. The name and deeds are better linked together. Perhaps so with Jock. He was one of the giants of the grid world In the late '30s when his Pittsburgh Panthers were rolling to Impressive records. After the Pitts deemphasised football the spot light shifted from Sutherland and he had not really regained the pinnacle si me thciy There are those who would claim that Knute Rockne's establishment as a grid Immortal was enhanced from the very fact that the tragic Kansas piano crash came at the height of his fame. To the script writer It could have been the final and appropriate dramatic touch a Wagnerian climax. . . . The calendar sots spring Is in- ' deed hero and. of course, you weuidn 1 minx u oy wie wnuw; and you would also doubt It If you would note the ample sprinkling of baseball and Ice hockey Items which have poured over the wire of late. . . . Ray Ortelg. the former Vancouver Capllano hit threat and a Carl Mays product, is not played regular third base for the 'Frisco Seals this year but rather is Lefty O'Doul's Jack-of-all-trades. Right now Ray's doing some catching and he's also hitting .5. . . . The handicap system in bowling tourneys has always had Its share of advocates and critics. The han dicap is naturally the leveling In fluence, and Is. of course, a boon to the less-talented trundlers. The wisdom of such Is questionable, however. In the ease of such lim ited action aa the three-game set. Anybody, whether he has a tM average or morely a 13. can be awfully hot or equally cold la such a short period of wheeling. And It seems to us that the very aver ago pins men would get a whale of a lot more kick out of beating the tep-notchers with a "hot" per formance rather than coming out on Up with the aid of a IM-pin -spot" . . . Back a few years ago a fine cause for debate was whether Roy Helaer. Portland's portsider. ought to stick to the mound or go into the outfield and fully capitalise on his hitting ability. Roy Is and was wicked with the stick. Ho has hit 'em a country mile. Perhaps he sight have gone higher than no bow Is if ho had forgotten the sound. Then again well ItH al ways bo a good argument for the fcot-stevers. . . . Table of Coastal Tides Tide Uolos (or Taft. Oregon. rtlad by tbo U.S. Lout J Geodetic urvey. Month of April, 1M, Apr.

No official score was kept, but Mgr. Jack Wilson's out fit colected the much greater share of runs and hits off the college pitching. Regular 1947 Senator Shortstop Bud Peterson joined the team and was shoved into action immediate ly by Wilson. Since Mel Nunes was injured at Corvallis and the club was therein crippled badly In the infield, Peterson was sent down from the parent Portlands at the request of Business Manager George Emigh and Wilson. If Nunes is recovered sufficiently to start in the big opener Friday night, Peterson goes back to Port land. If not. Bud will be at short stop for the Senators. Joe Gedzius, also a top short pa tcher in the league last season for Bremerton, was moved to third base yesterday and looked as if he's played as much at the far turn as he has at shortstop. He'll open at the post Friday if Nunes is still laid up. The other cripple on the club. Outfielder Chet Hartman, was back in harness for the lengthy workout and. if he doesn't aggra vate his bothersome ankle before then, likely will be in left field Friday night. The balance of the Senator starting lineup at least in yesterday's game was intact with Charley Hanson catching. o, Jim Wert on first. AI bpaeter on second. Dick Sinovic in center and Dick Gentzkow in right. Wilson used Hunk Anderson and Bob Stevenson for three in nings each, and then had Vince Lazor. Buz Sporer and Gene Pe terson hurling two frames apiece i in the scrimmage. The Bearcats, far behind in their conditioning and out for the first time, man aged a run off Sporer only. Lewis tossed Freshman Lou Scrivens. madeover infielder Larry Stocks, Veteran Howard Olson and Bert Lund at the Senators. Only Olson managed to escape the Senator run-scoring to any extent. Bearcat Ace Johnny Slanchik missed the session, as he is now in the school infirmary with a kidney ailment. Hitting well for the Salems were Spaeter, who biffed four; Gedzius, who had a couple; Catcher Han son, with two; Sinovic, with two; Gentzkow, two more, and Short stop Peterson, also with two. A 10 a.m. turnout Is booked for today. Angels Topped By Viking '9' . Coach Harold Hauk's Salem high baseball varsity yesterday made their 1948 debut a success ful one at Olinger field by down ing the Mt. Angel Preps, 10 to 5. The Vikings banged out 11 hits off Eddie Kahut, three apiece by the Osborne boys. Warren and Frank. Cliff Girod. Del Kleen, Mike Glenn, Bruce Boatman and Art Oakley collected the other safeties.

The GUmores, plus out standing thinclads from a few of the other prep schools in this region, take to Eugene Friday and Saturday for the ann,n Ilayward Relays.
