feii'S ! "Taking a hike" these days is most generally method of Inviting someone to get lost depart, move much hiking in this era of autos, forgotten art not much mention ox It, in technical form, is made. But to one Paul Smith of Mill City, who is also known as Oregon's walking man, taking a hike is an Item that would make most folks' corns - pop right through their shoes.: For example, Smith last weekend gave with what he term ed a "century walk of 100 miles from Pilot Butte Inn at Bend to the Davis airport between Gates and Mill City merely as a side light for the port's Aviation Day fete. y Now 66 years old and weighing a solid 190 pounds. Smith isn't tak ing up hiking as a pastime in his later years. Back in 1911 he walk ed and ran from Bend to Burns, 164 miles, in 22 hours and 11 min vntes. In 1929 he walked from Salem ,to Portland and back again in 16 hours and: 25 minutes. A miner near Quartsville in Linn county, Smith believes he's the champion distance walker in all t Oregon, and defies anyone to disprove inv and all times. h it for a 50 or Should anyone care to take srladlv po alone as referee. In our Not much to really laugh at in cf the Far West league with his Eugene Larks, but Walter tine ureal j Mails continues to trv. The other evening he obtained four milk-maids and as many cows (real ones, too), and produced a milking contest at home plate. One might suggest that Walteri install an egg-laying contest as his next feature. But he's apt to counter that with the fact that his ball club is laying enough eggs the way it is. . . . - Speaking of the Larks, Owner Art Hadler is ane af tbeaa lucky stiffs wha at one time drove a big Cadillae when he was a Sacramento businessman. Now that he's in the baseball badness he's piloting a Chewy. Which Is one way of telling that the Larks .. aren't dolor so well financially. f ' M ' But then scant few minor league clubs are these days. . . . i .

He s now a one-legged rooster for sure. . . I 1 Grabar Merely Victim of the Times id Wlh The demise of Norm Grabar ether example of just how truly rough it is forjthe younger baseball players to exist in our "Class B" before the WIL went beserk, the 23-year-old Grabar would have been worth keeping as a potential standout of the future True enough, he needs to develop his batting. Which league been purely Class B. I i I But with so much experience now in the circuit (over 56 as sorted ex-major and Coast leaguers), clubs Cannot afford to go along with the younger fellows while .they are developing In order to keep up with their neighbors, the club operators must take on the more experienced (and costly) players also, therein knock ing out the youngsters with limited ability. 1 It's a bad break for Grabar WIL magistrates do something about Ing in hiring the overly-costly ttlder comparative youngsters in the league. f ; i Really a bad break for the same magistrates also, for In not being able to fill their rosters with players of Grabar's caliber they're having to pay much more than they should. Were the truth to be known we'd bet our mort gaged Keizer plot that at least six of the eight clubs are right now so splashed with red ink they look like fire engines." And they're getting more crimson every week. . . . i i Coaches Drop from North Bend Like Dead flies j Seems to be quite a tangled mess at North Bend high all of rudden. In the space of a scant few months Athletic i Director Fred Adams, Football Coach Ben Holcomb, Basketball Coach Dick Wilkins end Principal Bob Keuscher up and quit, cold and quick-like. Reason ; Is said to be enclosed m the office door. . i - f The high school itself isn't the only hot spot. Every one of the coaches in the Junior high has quit, as have 19 teachers and two other principals. Some mighty fine records as mentors, such at those owned by both Holcomb and Wilkins, went with them. 1 - Can t imagine what one man ance, but whatever it is it must be As for former villager Keuscher, he's now vice principal at Lin coln high in Portland and our North Bob's loss by that school "is terrific school they've had in 40 years really a super job." j Merchant Pitches, Nelson Hits . . . Salem Legion Kline i Klips Steyton for Salem's Capital Post No. 9 American Legion Junior baseball team remained undefeated after four district games when they edged out a strong Stayton team, 4-3 at Waters field. The Salems are th only unbeaten team in tne district. Steve Merchant did the pitching for Coach Vine Genna's lads In their latest conquest, besting Cox of Stayton with a four-hitter.
