We write of the new softball field as being a certainty, for we feel that Salem won't fail in the current drive to raise the $3,500 necessary to install lights. After all, this is a progressive city and not one loaded with skinflints and tightwads who would sit by and see a good thing go to pot. We hope . . . Consensus of opinion last winter was that Slats Gill's Oregon Staters would have been mighty tough basketball hombres to handle had they only possessed "a good big man." He's a trifle late for last season, but the Beavers now have him in Tony Vlastelica the 6-6 whizbang from Aberdeen. He chose Oregon State over at least 40 other "invitations" and should amount to the best thing that's happened to Gill since Red Rocha blew in from Hawaii some years ago, . . . Amateurs Coming Back, After Boston Shotc Amateur boxing; enthusiasts waitinr for the next Cherrians card at the Armory will have to wait until the National AAU championships are over later this month in Boston. A good many of the talented glovesters of the Northwest are to biff in Boston, and the sponsoring Cherrians want to wait until they return be fore installing the next local show . . . Timely gag went askew at the Armory the other night when the announcer refused to page one Ray Smith "for a telephone call from Tokyo." Ray would have bit his cigar smack in two had the pee-ay gent gone along with the rib .. . Speaking of Armory visitors, Rassler Eric Pedersen may or may not be the world's strongest and best built matador as he says he is. But he does have a blue ribbon cauliflower ear, easily one of the best in captivity. Didn't get it from answering telephone calls either ... Seattle's Jim Rivera and Hollywood's George Schmees grew fat and famous on Coast League pitching last season, but in spring camp clashes for the St. Louis Browns Rivera is batting barely over the .200 mark and Schmees, whoonce played for Spokane in the WIL, Isn't anywhere near that strictly 4-F level. Vik Should Have a Powerful Ball Team Keep an eye on Harold Hank's Viking baseball varsity, for it may be one of the best Salem High teams he's ever had. The squad is loaded with the same capables who last Fall showed so well for Vince Genna's Capital Posters in the State Legion tour ney, and the confidence and experience they gained in that playoff will be of much value to them now. The team has pitching depth, catching, good defense and plenty of power what with lads like Lowell Pearce, Ron Whittaker, Steve Merchant, Don Garren, "Red" Winters, Phil Jantre, Jim Rice, Jimmy Brown, Chuck Puhlman, Rod Hales, Bill Nelson and Don Burk around . . . Mike Carty gave Salem and surrounding points the best auto rac ing season in history last summer, and is set to go again at Holly wood Bowl next Sunday with the popular stock cars. Mike has great plans for the coming semester and is again working hand in hand with the major motor racing interests in Oregon and Washington. Stocks, hot rods, hard tops and midgets are to show here on a weekly basis, with the meets changing from Sunday afternoon to Saturday night appearances when the weather becomes a bit warmer. A new twist will be added later on also, same being "Auto Polo," a smash-'em, crack-'em gem designed after the regular polo sport played on horses. Specially constructed cars, made to roll over with the utmost of ease, are to be used in auto polo, and specialized teams will make with the motored mayhem not on the track but on the Hollywood Bowl infield. Looks like plenty of thrills for sure. SC Ondermen Win BERKELEY, Calif. (JP)- South ern California, aiming for its four th fuccessive national collegiate track and field championship, un veiled an array of talent Saturday to swamp California, 76 1-6 to 54 5-G, in the 44th annual meet be tween the two rivals. iievj Cars in Salem's 1952 auto racing in augural, booked for next Sunday afternoon in Hollywood Bowl, will list no less than four brand new 1952 models . among the num- n erous stock cars ; 'on hand. Valley Sports Promoter t nounced Satur , day that the t stocks, very pop 1 ular items with I racing fans here ' last year, will get the Sunday meet under way with the time trials at 1:30 p.m. Jim Wllkinsoa "Well have at least 22 cars for strictly second rate compared to the one planned for the 29th of this month at the Armory. That is, if all plans materialize. No Less than 19 service clubs in the area have combined efforts for the spread, and 1,000 tickets at a buck apiece are to be made available to the public. That, friends, should be quite a shindig . . . Absolutely, positively and most assuredly all through. Such is the manner in which veteran city softballer Pete McCafery describes his future in the summertime sport. Pete dates back to the golden softball era in these parts, and just about every one he played with or against in those years have long gone to the rack. He has hung on in recent seasons with Snide Campbell's Rock Woolers, and has been doing a good job of it. But he says he'll not be around in other than the capacity of a spectator when the Wisconsin Takes Boxing Gonfalon MADISON, Wis. (TP)- Heavy weight Bob Ranck led Wisconsin to the team championship and won his second straight title himself If PV fSie Racing Opener Sunday the opener," Carty added, "and with the enthusiasm the Oregon Motor Racing Board is looking forward to the 1952 season, I wouldn't be surprised to see a rec ord entry field by starting time." Among the 22 now registered for the commencer are a new Olds mobile '88', a new Henry J, a new Hudson Hornet and a new Ford. The stock cars will not be souped up in any way. They? must pass rigid examinations by the racing board and cannot be 'hop ped" in any manner. Carty will have a complete list of cars and drivers available early in the week. Leading stock car pilots last year included Bill Weimann, Bud Emra, Ray Elliott, Gordy Haines, Bill Amick. Wally Gervais, Her- iiiidreds in Saturday's WillameKis" Kelays1 Tract1 - i -, . f, j Hurry!

Simpson smashed 100 straight targets in the 16-yard event and followed up by breaking 95 out of 100 in the afternoon handicap.

Seal Manager Tommy Heath put Joe Grace instead of Ray Or teig in the cleanup spot and sub stituted Herman Lewis for Hank Biasatti at first base. But the big boom still stayed in the bat of Bob Thurman who got three out of four. Seal Pitcher Bob Bradford'kept the Beavers well in check and the only run against him was unearn ed. The Seals got enough to win in the third when Ray Hamrick got an infield hit. Pitcher Brad ford who also starred at bat sacrificed and Len Ratto singled "i-iuss namricK. itaxio scored as rranx Austin erred on Jim Mo ran's grounder. Three successive doubles scored two more in the fourth. Portland's lone counter was the product of a single by Austin, Ratto's error in handling Joe Brovia's grounder, and Clint Con aster's single.

The Relays provided opportunity for 1700 athletes from 60 Ore gon high schools and 16 colleges to get their first real taste of 195S action and that there was real talent among 'em was clearly indicated -in the wholesale mayhem committed on marks set at the inaugural show last year. One of the records which went down was the 9.8 collegiate invita tional century dash, made by Oregon State's Merv Brock in 51. Th new king is that University of Oregon speed merchant. Bill Fell, who maneuvered the distance in a snappy 9.7 Saturday, beating out Brock ' by a couple of steps. In another top feature of the afternoon, the collegiate invitational high hurdles, Don Chambers of Oregon State, hit a 15.1 time to better the 15.4 made by Willamette's Ted Mertz last year. As was expected, Oregon State's Lyle Dickey bettered his senior pole vault mark of '5 as he soared 13 feet, 6H inches, much above the former record of 13 feet flat. m Oregon's Chuck Missfeldt, one of the featured performers Satur- - I day, didn't have much luck in the javelin. He won the senior event but ! his best toss of 205 feet, 5 inches was far under the 225'114" heave ! with which he startled the fans last season. Dallas Ace Tops Mark !
