Come to think of it Tilden once tried his hand at acting, and did

interest in Club Definitely Revived ' r T
The coldness of the night doubtlessly kept the Senators Inaugural
crowd below record-breaking- figures. But even so the 4500 who did
welcome their home-owned heroes amounted to reason enough to
believe that interest in the townies definitely has been revived. The
gathering missed by less than 300 of ! bettering the all-time opening
night attendance record of 4750 (racked up in 1940 for the first pro
fessional game in Waters field history), but got H. Lubys men off
on their way toward luring well over; 100,000 into the big ball yard
for the season. There was little hope of lowering the park's overall
record of 7790 for a single game, however. That total jammed the
arena in June of 1946 for the Sal em-Portland exhibition tilt,' a bene
fit for voung Tommy Edwards, son of the late 'Frisco" who died -in
May of that year. Tommy is now one of the Solon batboys, along
with Bobby Levy incidentally. " -t
Good chance , for some more king-sized attendance figures
to enter the corporation books today also. Given a warm and
sunny afternoon, which Is the US weather, bureau forecast, the
1:30 o'clock double bill should pack em in. And net only will the
customers ret their two games for tbe price of eae. hut they ussy
also have their long-awaited chance to see for thr rives if Bill
Sevens' arm is one again sound. BUI is scheduled to hurl either
: today or .Tuesday night when Victoria comes la.
Bury the Beaver Nigh? Thursday
Then too there-is the Bory the Beavers Night" planned for next
Thursday when Victoria' is here. That's the one during, which city
and corporation officials will officially ' and gagfully) bury, the former
Portland Beaver ownership in center field, or hang it from the flag
pole. There is to be casket, appropriate music, etc woven into the
program. So don't miss it.
Victoria is the club now working with Portland, you know.
It is also the one in the league which keeps all its own gate receipts
when at home, and gets not a single dime when it plays en the
road. Jamming the park Thursday night will mean much moo la
for the Senators corporation coffers, as well as a chance to pass
along an appropriate haw-haw to yon Beavers ...

Prizes Handed Out to Winners
In Big Mill Creek Kids Derby
By Den Harser
A small but enthusiastic group of Mill Creek Kids numbering
150 strong whooped and cheered Saturday as they sat through a
morning of entertainment in the Izaak Walton League Clubhouse on
So. Cottage, which included nearly everything from, funnies,' to In
dians on the movie screen, awarding of the prizes to the winners of
the annual Salem Lions club-Izaak Walton-sponsored Mill Creek
Junior Fishing - tournament, : a
friendly word Of warning from
Judge Joseph Felton and ice
cream cups.
It was a small gathering when
compared with the 1,000 strong
that whipped the waters of Mill
creek the preceeding Saturday in
search of a fish that would give
them a prize. Regardless of size
however, the small 'flock of Jun
ior anglers and amglerettes, some
of whom were, accompanied i by
parents, were - none the less en
thusiastic when Judge Felton
started the awarding of the priz
es. "One of the things you had
better learn right at the start,
grinned Felton, .is the value of
the little annual angling synopsis
put out by the game commission.
Get one and study it well or you
may be spending some morning
coming in to see me."
Jerry Coon, whose 'booby prize'
entry was listed as "Just barely 6
inches long," was given a fish De
Liar along with Felton's advice
that he would have no excuse in
the future for entering a fish that
was "just barely.' When the
awarding of the prizes was fin
ished with the handing of a hand
some spinning outfit complete In
every detail from lures to rods
and reel to Richard Boedigheim-
