Vancouver after playing three days recently in Wesn- .atchee to crowds of 750, 825 and 1000 actually lost money during the sta'.d. Which is just an example of how rough ttiings can be for the WIL operators . . . Woodburn Bill Austin is now well, into his "spring" prac tice with the New York pro football Giants, and although he has no Ail American trophies or ribbons with hint he dq.es have the support of many who' believe, he has what it takes to become another Eberle Schultz or Len Younce in the pay-for-play ranks . . , Another Wood burner who did his collegiate chores at OSC, this one Charley Sauvain the lefty pitcher, is said to be ripe for the pro scouts, but at a $5000 bonus and $500 per month for a start.

Neat and toft profit- FRED WILLIAMS j able stunt local auto racer Max Humm and car-owner Don Waters maneuver'. On Friday nights Humm pilots Waters "hot rod" roadster in the lacer at Seattle, and on Saturday nights repeats; at Hollywood bowl. Then on Sunday afternoon Humm herds the same car in the dirt track "big car" races at Yakima. Only by then you wouldn't re cognize the thing. They spend all of Satutday night unbolting the jalopy-looking roadster body and replacing it with an attractively aleek teguUr racing car form, and then reverse the procedure for the next' rod race in Seattle ... ' i So far as we can gather; the reason 'Jimmy Ryan Isn't sponsor- . , Inc the bowl race on Saturday nicht la this: Ryan soured on the , oft poorly made and erratic clunkers and refused to promote their - races In Portland, sticking to the more glamorous; faster and cost lier midgets.

Fred has a trip to make during football season, one that will be memorable in deed. It will be to Iowa City, la., to not Only see th Iowa-Indiana Homecoming game but to be a part of it as well. As a halftime feature of that tilt there will be a reunion in midfield of the Iowa football . team of 189:. Only seven of the members of that team are still alive, 'tis said, and Fred is very much one of the seven. Fact is, he was an All-American conference end for the Hawkeyes that year ... Inasmuch as -It's his last trip in for the season. Boss man Bill Brenner of the Vancouvers could be welcomed this week via a tale . of one of the prise baseball boobies of all time. You've heard of : and seen some dandy diamond "skulls. but few will pa railed the ' one Bil the Bull pulled 'way back In the eary days of the WTJL. whei he was a young and green catcher for Tacoma, freak out of - school and dripping behind his ears. j - I Tis.said Johnny Nenezith was umpiring this particular game, but we can't prove it until we talk to John.. Anyway, the bases were full and the pitcher cut loose a wild heave thaBrenner only helped roll clear to the backstop. Instead of .giving chase to the thing the excited and eVring Bill reached behind him JohnlNenezich neither moved or Iy behind him with -outstretched hand as if he knew the new ball in Nenezich hana were there someplace, but he just hadn't found j 'era . yet & i I Finally the dawn came for our man aa his pitcher galloped by hint on the dead run. cursing with every stride, and all three of the enemv runners took turns denting the dish. f i It took William a long time to live that 'one ddwnjiut he finaUy made it. And the Brenner who comes to town Friday night with! his Capilanos is now'not only one of the loop's best backstops but hitters as wen. v' r :, ' ' , j Top Boner jby Legion Brats Hat Helped Dourn Salem The method by which the American Legion junior baseball di rectors allow certain teams to solidify themselves for playoffs has been ridiculed by this corner for years.

Designed to give the leaser cities a better sbot at the Mr boys a doubt, the rule says players can be recruited front eeusblnatiea of prep schools pro viding the total enrollment ef . me player are recruited does not exceed ZOO students. f This gave the Hillsboro team the fight to select at randdm any plav ers it desired. So the Hills bo ros that Salem played actually amounted to an au-stai team made up of kids from Hot only Hills boro, but Ti Card, Forest Grove, etc. And then to make matter worse, the man agement of the Capital Posters was told by State Junior 'Baseball Chairman Jess Osborh of Portland that the Salem team was restricted to Salem high school alone, and could -not recruit outside help. Salem high's enrollment is considerably , boner by rjsborn. ' - . We had the seme headache to contend with back la 1S44 when we coached the local Posters.

The Hoe Cap C7 Sennatoirs Spsura Drilling m A' Have triple Play; Schacht Does Acts . 1 A gilt-edged and three-pronged vote of thanks is due baseball clown Al Schacht today -for Viot only his hilarious deeds of the diamond during his act last night at Waters field,, but also for help ing? to instill in the town Senators an all-aroiind will to win again. The famed funny man pulled 3146 admissions into the arena for the fifth mix of the series with 2 . . : . .1-1...: A I . 1. presence of such a cheering crowd did wonders for the locals. They played, and hustled like champ ions instead of second divisioners and rewarded the hefty gathering with an artistically fashioned 4 to 1 victory. Schacht got the throng into, the mood with his 30 minutes of as sorted antics. Bob Drilling fol lowed through by uncorking one of his best outings of the past two seasons, handcuffing the A's with seven scattered bingles. Only an error kept the hard-throwing righthander from racking up a shutout The boot was entirely ex cusable fn that it was made by Mel Wasley at third, base, Mel having been stationed at the far turn again hv place of the injured Bob Hedington. . The win did no worse for" the Salems than keep them in sixth place and definitely broke the spell the Vies seemingly had over them in the first four games of the series. Victoria now leads the series, 3-2, and the final game to night at eight o'clock will find the Senator newcomer John Burak. late ot Pacific university, facing Joe Blankenship of the A's. It will be Burak's first pro start. Blan kenship is the gent who last sea son established a new WIL record with his 25 victories. Another hard thrower, pete Vu curevich, was the victim last night. A righthander the Yankee organization thinks a lot of, Pete had but one bad inning, the sec ond, to "ruin his game. Even then a triple play, second, of the season here, pulled him out of the bad jam. Wasley opened the frame by banging one off the right-center fence for a double. Manager BiU Beard walked, and Orrin Snyder lined a 3-and-2 pitch into left field for a double and one rim. Claude1 Buckley, who was to have three of the 10 Salem hits' for the night,: singled sharply to center and Dril ling himself followed suit. Three runs were In with nobody ; out and Vucurevich was shoulder deep in miseries. Then ' came the triple play, as expertly and quickly accomplish ed as any you'll fee. Marty Krug lined high to Vic Buccolaat first base and Vic promptly hopped on the bag, doubling Drilling. He then tossed to shortstop Russ Wal seth who got Buckley as he at tempted to' get! back to the NO. 2 sack. This was the ball game as it turned out, although Salem pick ed up a disputable run in the fifth on Wayne Peterson's single and Bud Peterson s long smash against the left field fence for a double. Wayne had to slide in for the tally and was called safe. All Victor lans, and more than a few in the seats were convinced he was out, The Victoria run came in the fifth on Catcher Bob Morgan's single to center, Wasley's error on a bad throw after fielding Vu curevich's grounder, and Wal- seth's ground-out the latter driV' ing across the unearned tally. Drilling was hit hard early in the came, but had fine suDnort. He got better as he went along ana wouna up by walking only pne and whiffing three. It was his sixth victory of the season . The other .triple play made here was by Tacoma on June 9 . . . Second-sacker GiL McDou. gald, who ' looks like one of the best prospects in the league this year, was hurt in the fourth inn ing when he crashed into Beard at the plate, and was forced to leave the game. He was frying to score from xirst base on Len Nor- en's double, but was cut down . .!.
