Tigers Sweep
7-5. 7-2 Tilts
Salems Open Series
In Spokaiie Tonight
' Br Al Lightner
Statesman SporU Editor ,
Tis a good thing for the Yakima-
Bears that Tacoma's Tigers
r' nlav all their games in
trafr fipM. Were it thus ar
toniMl this season. Tacoma and
rot Yakima would be leading the
Western International league der
by. Said Tigers, extending their
whammy over the now thoroughly
sunken Senators, last night mop
ped up both ends of the double
header by scores of 7-5 and 7-2,
tMroin u7Mnintf the four-game
series and making it eight straight
times Manager Bob Johnsons
crew dumped the Townies here at
home. . ,
Not at"all bad for a last, place
club, and certainly not at all good
for one that up until Tacoma came
in Friday night looked as If it
might be well on the way toward
ifth niar in the standings. The
four-game snatch pulled Salem
down to within a scant 2Vi games
of the dungeon and an even 20
games below the .500 mark.
The club took off for Spokane
right after last night's thrashing
and tonight open a short stand
with the Indians. Back they come
Thursday night to take on Wer
atchee and Yakima in the fin??
home series of the season.
All through playing Tacoma for
the season, Salem managed nine
victories to IS losses with the
Tiges. Oddly enough, the Solons
won six games to Tacoma's five In
the latter's home park. The final
count was 3-won, 8-lost here at
home.
About the only thing the Sen
ators managed to accomplish in
the duet of last night was four
double plays and the formula for
keeping Rousing Richard Greco's
big bat silenced. Greco got but
one hit. an infield scratcher. On
five of his other jaunts to the dish
he was walked, bringing the total
of free tickets for him to 10 for the
four games played. At that he
wound ud hitting an even .500
with four hits in eight official
trips.
But where Greco played second
fiddle last night, Eddie Barr took
full command in his place. Well
known around the premises after
playing here last year and the one
before, Ol' Fleetfoot bopped out
six hits in nine tries off the slants
of Jim Olsen, Cal Mclrvin and Stu
Fredericks, and for his scries had
-for-16 and a .563 mark. How
the "ex's" do come back to haunt
us one way or another.
Olsen had the misfortune of
dropping his game in one extra
frame In the opener. Big Jim
potted the Tiges a 5-0 lead- in the
first inning, and then he and his
mates bit back at Lefty Bob Ker
rigan for two runs in the third
and three in the fourth to tie it up.
It stayed that . way until the
eighth when Tacoma started out
on Barr's single with one out. An
ensuing error and a pinch single
by Mgr. Johnson produced one
run, and then it was anotner er
ror and a fielder's choice for the
other tally and the ball game.
The Senators could do little
with Kerrigan in all but the third
and fourth, when seven hits pro
duced the five Salem runs. Al
together there were nine hits off
Kerrigan and 10 off Olie. After
Jim's bad start in the fjrst four
hits and two walks here he
hurled four-hit ball until the
fatal eighth.
Mclrvin suffered practically the
same fate, a bad first inning. The
Tiges got to him for three runs on
four hit and a walk to start out
with, and then added loners In the
fifth and sixth, and a brace in the
seventh.
Meanwhile there was no run
producing for the likeable lefty.
The locals couldn't solve Right
hander Don Carter's serves worth
a hoot when it was necessary for
hit to produce a run. There
were potential tallies aboard In
five of the first eight innings, but
either a sharp fielding play by the
enemy, particularly Barr In center
field, or a pop-up would leave
them there.
It was In the bottom of the
ninth that Salem finally scored
off Carter. With one out Bill
Burgher singled . and Orrin Snyder
hit a long double to center. In
came Claude Buckley as a pinch
hitter with two out and he banged
a single to left for both nine.
Tacoma fielding gem pulled
Kerrigan out of bad spot In the
first game also. Third-sacker Joe
Kaney was the culprit In this one,
on three different occasion . . .
' OUen's loss was his 11th, against
10 wins. For Cal, It was loss No.
4, against 7 victories . . . Bob Dril
ling goes postward at Spokane to
night . . . The four "dee-pees'
brought Salem's seasonal total to
143 . . . Manager Bill Beard tried
two lineup shift In the duet, but
there just seemed to be no beating
the Tacoma Jinx ...

hour before hauling it aboard.

Lebanon Man
Lands Shark
LEBANON This is the tale of
a big fish that didn't get away!
After waiting 15 years. Dale
Neilson, co-owner of the Santiam
Sporting Goods and Appliances,
landed his first big fish, a six-foot-
three-inch' blue shark off
the Oregon coast near Taft last
week.
Neilson and a party -t'. seven
other Lebanon and L a c o m b
sportsmen were fishing from the
Tradeswinds Troller "Fish-On,"
out of Depoe Bay. The craft was
anchored a half-mile off shore.
The party, including J. C. Raines
of Lacomb, was composed of Mr.
and Mrs. Harold Baird, Lloyd and
Harold Fitzgerald, and Mr. and
Mrs. Irvin Grenz, and Neilson.
During the morning the party
boated 13 salmon, 14 sea bass, and
a ling cod. Shortly after noon the
fishing craft developed battery
trouble' and idled in the water.
Anchors were dropped to keep it
from drifting while the skipper
radioed for another battery.
While waiting, Neilson spotted
the shark about 50 yards off the
stern of the craft. Rigging up a jig
he attempted to attract the big
shark's attenion. Failing in this,
he rigged up a large spinner which
the shark struck on its .first pass
through the wafer. The battle
lasted nearly an hour with Neil
son using only 200 yards of 72
pounds test line in fighting the
monster.
Officials of the Trollers report
ed the shark to be the largest on
caught along this section of the
Oregon coast in three years.

Dnjured Iftnee Delays
Mogan's (Golf Plans
FORT WORTH, Tex Aug. 2I4-A torn knee cartilage one
that eventually will require an operation probably willf urther delay
Ben Hogan's return to competitive golf.
The condition, which Hogan suspected and Dr. Alton Oschner con
firmed during a New Orleans
checkup last week, is another of
the minor ailment that have de
veloped in the wake of the little
golfer's near-fatal automobile ac
cident last February 2, that hos
pitalized him for 59 days.
Hogan has expressed hope that
he might begin swinging his clubs
within a year from the date of the
accident, but the torn cartilage
will bring another setback.
Hogan is sticking to his plans
of returning to big league golf
and he's philosophical about de
lays, even though they may mean
more surgery in the future. "I
don't worry much about it" Hogan
says. "I'm luck to be here at all."
Hogan has never handled any
club other than a putter since the
accident and he won't try until
Dr. Oschner approves.
Last week Oschner told Ben to
stay away from golf until he re
turns for another checkup three
months hence.
Spectator Aids
Snead to Save
Golf dom 'Title9
MEMPHIS, Aug. 21 -(&)- A
slow-moving lady sitting on the
far edge of the 18th green prob
ably kept Sam Snead from losing
the -unofficial world's golf
championship" to Cary Middlecoff
today..
The unidentified spectator ac
cidentally kept Snead's second
shot from skittering off into deep
rough, enabling Sam to birdie the
hole and finish the five-match
series with Middlecoff all square.
Promoters had boosted the ex
hibition tour between P.G.A.
Champion Snead and National
Open Champion Middlecoff as an
off the record playoff for the
number one golf spot.
Today's 70, which the pair dup
licated, was considerably In con
trast with Snead's course-equalling
64 yesterday and Middlecoff s
68.

needed only 50 minutes to win the
national doubles titles from their
countrymen, Frank Sedgman and
George Worthington, 6-4, 6-0, 6-1,
today at Longwood. 1
And they did it in such one
sided fashion that most of the
impressed tennis students agreed
that the defending American
quartet, three of whom faltered
here, are decided underdogs for'
the challenge round trophy com
petition that opens next Friday at
Forest Hills, N.Y.
What bothered the U.S. team
the most was the fact that Sedg
man and Worthington, playing to
gether in their first tourney, were
able to upset Defending Champions
Gardnar Mulloy and Billy Tal
bert, 6-4. 1-6, 7-5, 9-7, ,tn their
quarter-finals. Mulloy and Tal
bert have been named as the
American team's doubles combina
tion. It was Bromwich's second na
tional triumph here in a decade. He
teamed with Countryman Adrian
Quist here before the Australians
lifted the Davis cup back in 1939.
In the other of today's finals,
Louise Brought of Los Angeles, and
Mrs. Margaret Osborne DuPont of
Wilmington, Del.j won their eighth
straight women's doubles titles by
besting Doris Hart of Miami, and
Shirley Fry of Akron, O., 6-4, 8-6.
The only other such consistent
women's national doubles competi
tor was Mrs. Sarah Palfrey Cooke,
a member on nine winnings teams
with four different partners, in
cluding Mrs. DuPont, from 1930

sectional baseball tournament to
day. Although Oakland collected
only six hits, three Ornaha pitchers
