poll, to determine after a 10-day
period just how much money can
be raised toward the purchase of
the ball club, is being conducted
by The Statesman, The Capital
Journal and Radio Stations KOCO

how much money can be raised
later on, if the club is purchased.
The total will be known only to

Here was a team dying inning

The tragedy of it all so far as
the Red Sex are eeaceraed is that
they are a team which seems to
have every thing, from awe-inspiring
power to excellent de

Yet they apparently are net go

It isn't that the Red Sox hav

Just that they have been trying
too hard.
Maybe their history of frustra

failed so many, many times when
everyone thought they might do
it. They came through once, la

were chastag the rata bow. They

CHICAGO, Sept. 14-(P)-The
Philadelphia Athletics have estab
lished a new American league
double play record of 198 for one
season set by the Boston Red Sox
in 1945.
Connie Mack's brilliant infield
hung up the record in defeating
the Red Sox twice in Philadelphia
last Sunday.
The game ending and record
breaking double play was started
by Ferris Fain, first baseman. Fain
was assisted all season by the
sharp fielding of Eddie Joost,
shortstop; Pete Suder, second
baseman; Nelson Fox, utility in
fielder and Henry Majeskl, third
baseman.

The Viks engaged in a heavy
scrimmage session last night on
rain-soaked Leslie field and the
wetness didn't particularly irritate
Coach Loren Mort for familiarity
with wet conditions might be of
help to the locals Friday eve.,
Mort is not yet entirely pleased
with his club's pass defense ability
and will work on that weakness
today. Play-polishing work is
also on tap.
A late change in the starting
lineup Mort plans for the opener
is insertion dt 156-pound-and-scrappy
Al McMullen at the left
guard slot.
Tall Doug Rogers and Dan
Boyd will hold forth at the flanks,
Gordy Bacon, 192-pounds, and
Frank "Parker, 205 pounder, will
be at the tackles, and at right
guard Bill Johnson, 180, will be
in a starting role. Jerry Graves,
180, has clinched the center posit
ion. Gordy Sloan, the squad's top
passer and a 170-pounder, will
guide the team from the quarter
spot, at right half it'll be 150
pound Dale Olson and at full Deb
Davis, 160, will be working.
Either Captain Jim Rock, 190, or
Buzz Covalt, 165, will start at the
left half running post.

reported that Gonzales, repeat

Veteran Frank Parker likewise
