- For a group (1) holding respect of the community, (2) with a keen desire to do a good job, (3) qualified from a successful stand point, (4) possessing honesty and Integrity and (5) able to taka the - necessary time ana pauence xo work on the project, the five men . elected - to the Salem Senators, Inc., board of directors this week In our opinion amount to A-l dan dies. Not that some of the others nominated couldn't have done as welL But inasmuch as those elect ed were put into office by the ' ; stockholders 'themselves, those, holders should be complimented for their choices. An example of : how eager they are to produce can be found in the fact that it was ' but a few hours after election that ; the five rolled up respective sleeves, called ' a meeting of the board and went right to work. The enthusiasm registered by Don Young,-Ben Pade, Bob Elfstrom, Tom Holman and Russ Bonesteele during the first confab only em phasized to us that the stockhold ers were wise in their selections. EMIL. SICK Since the election the question has been asked, "How much stock do those directors own?" Since we've had charge of the stock sales we can answer thusly: Young bought 20 .shares ($500), as did Pade. Elfstrom, Bonesteele and Holman each have four shares or $100 worth. Consequently the five directors own only $1300 of the $50,000 project. . - - . - . ' 4 - - - .Which brings ns U an article printed Wednesday morning la The Oreronian, and written by Lair Grerory, sports editor. Greg ory, writes, In part, that the entire Senators movement Is a good one, for it Involves home nwershlp by the fans themselves. Baft he also adds that It's a dead certainty that conniving will now take' over and that some individual or small group of Individuals will start baying ap the stock from the "little fellows" on order to gain control, and that ruin and chaos will result. Whether or not Gregory is attempting to create a mild panic among the stockhouders is a question. But we are quite disappointed to learn that a man of his background and prestige has taken such an attitude on a community project as large as Salem Senators, Inc. And particularly so after the way in which his pet Portland Beavers have treated us here for three solid years. Should Have Dug Into Thing More Deeply , ' We believe that had Gregory dug a little deeper Into the core of things he could not have written as he did. Be should first have realized that the largest block of Stock sold was in the amount of $1009 and that only five men, none of them socially or industrially connected, went that high. The rest of the $45,000 worth of stock Is divided among 800 Individuals. Buying up a . - controlling amount of stock from a group of that size would bo a task not many would care to undertake. Especially when the 800 are for the most part patriotic citizens who are quite proud of the fact that they own part of the Salem Senators. Also, if ever it were believed by the multitude here that such goings-on were afoot, he who tried to gain control would find himself (Continued on next page) No Stopping TanW and Pals . f iosieers Mow mSliqO For Conference Northwest conference football play swings into another round the coming weekend but, in the eyes of the multitude, it matters little so far' as the eventual 1950 champion is concerned.

Montana Passer OREGON STATE COLLEGE. Corranis. Oct. 24-(Special)-An embattled Oregon State football team, loser of four straight games to top ranking clubs of the na tion, will so all oat to snare its first victory of the season when 18 plays host to the dangerous university of Montana Grixlles en Ben field Saturday afternoon. ' The task of recording an Initial win at the expense of Montana will not be an easy one. Coach ' Ted Shlpkey's Grisslles have won' three out of five starts to date, including an upset victory over Idaho, and dropped two hard fought ene-tonchdown decisions to Oregon and Washington State. Star of the Montana team Is Quarterback Tommy Klngsf ord. one of the best passers in the nation.

Logger Drills line Injuries Still Bother Stackhousers Coach Chester Stackhouso hurl ed his Willamette Bearcats through more mud-splotched drills Wed nesday as the Wlllamettes passed the midway point In their prepar ations for the non-conference bat tle with College of Puget Sound's Loggers Saturday afternoon at Ta coma. The 'Cats will bo gunning for their fifth victory of the sea son against the Loggers as they seek to . bounce back from 'last week's initial setback at the hands of Lewis and Clark, Line problems again confront Stackhouse and Aides Johnny Lewis and Sam Vokes Just as they did in last week's mix with the Pioneers. The WIT will rank as probable slight favorites over Coach John Heinrick's CPS'ers, but injuries to 'Cat forwards will bring the clubs close to the same level. Three key men all linemen still on the ailing list are Tackle Art Beddoe and Guards Chuck Bow and Jim McHale. Beddoe saw only sketchy action against the LCs and Bowe ana McHale didn't even suit up which was a -sharp disadvantage to the Wlllam ettes. in facing the bruising LC power. .. Likewise, if these men see little or no action against the Loggers It will be a tall handicap to the Stackhousers. The Loggers are about even with Willamette in the weight department and boast a pair of top offensive threats in Quarterback and Passer Art Vla fore and Fullback Dick Boen, ex Portland U power runner. His first-line backfield free of injuries, Stackhouse likely will open against the loggers with his rrosh star, luck Bingham, at Quar ter; Al Minn and Bill Ewaliko at the halves and Paul Jewell at fullback. The starting forward wall is purely tentative because of the In jury situation but from here it looks like John Skim as and Buzz Oerding at the flanks, Frosh Dor ran ce Noteboom and either Don Hosford or Jim Hitchman at the tackles; scrappy Charlie "Nee at one guard and diminutive Dick Petzholdt or Bob DeBord at the other and probably John Mat' koskie at the center slot As usual Bob Hall, one of the squad's ace defense bulwarks, will be in there for line-backing du ties when the enemy has the ball cnuck Koanl also will fill a defen sive role.
