Collins Drops
Tilt in Ninth
DeGeorge Tops Slab
In Tonight's Clash
By AL LlGHTNER
Statesman Snorts Editor
Displaying no punch whatever,
and an equal amount of luck, the
town Senators absorbed another
setback at Waters Field last night,
this one an accursed tougWe to
the ditto Spokane Indians in the
ninth inning. ? to 0. Thus in add
ing last nicht's oonmiert over our
men to the throe straight thev
notched last week in the Inland
Empire, the S'-oc have vet to be
licked by the P-lrmc this season
Still worse, the recent defeat
drops the Solons into seventh
place in the standings.
Bob Collins, the 6-fnt, 4-inch,
pencil-thin letv frm San Fran
cisco suffered the loss, and al
though he walked 10 of Mgr. Don
Osborn's Tribesmen he twirled
well enough to deserve a win.
Only Six Hits
Collins yielded only six hits and
the flossy support behind him,
along with his own ability to come
through when he had to, erased
all Spokane threats until the
nasty ninth. In that frame Catcher
Bill Sheets was passed as a start
er. Collins got the next two
swingers to hit into force plays
and appeared to be over the hump
once more with opposing Pitcher
Dick Bishop coming up.
But Bishop, who had smacked
mighty double off Collins in the
third heat, again delivered with a
long single to center, advancing
Shorstop Pat Simmons to third. A
walk to Eddie Murphy jammed
the run lanes and . Second-sacker
Jimmy Brown promptly banged in
the first run with a single to left
field. A following bases-loaded
walk to Right-fielder Jim Alli
cotti forced across the second
tally.
The only other real threat the
Indiana made was in the fourth
"atoning when a walk to Sheets, his
advance to second on an infield
out and Simmons single to left
came within a whisker of being a
run. A bulls-eye throw by Left
fielder Jimmy Deyo cut down
Sheet at the plate after he had
fielded Simmons' blow
Threat In Eighth
The rangy and deliberate Bish
op, a 15-game winner in the
league last year and still possessor
of a wide assortment of tantalizing
serves, was nicked by Salem hits
in every inning but the second, the
Senators getting eight in all. But
only in one frame, the eighth, did
the home clan really ruffle the
-tall righthander.
Bishop walked Glenn Tuckett
to start it, and after Tom Galli
failed in his attempt to bunt
Tuckett to second base, he hit into
a double play. Gene Tanselli, who
got three hits off Bishop during
the mix, shot a long triple to
right-center, a wallop that would
have scared a run were it not for
the "dee-pee'' ahead of it. Bishop
worked too cautiously on Andy
Andersen, walking him, and that
left it up to Ernie Sites. But Ernie
flied to right field, retiring the
aide.
Salem got runners as far as
second base in the third, fourth
nd seventh frames, but no punch
was present to inflict damage up
on Bishep.
Collins Throws Hard
Two infield double plays helped
Collins out of wee jams early in
the game, and the Spokes came
through with two behind their
flinger also. Collins whiffed six,
Bishop five. Lefty Bob began fir
ing hard from the fifth inning on,
fanning five of his six victims in
the fifth, sixth, seventh and
eighth.
Sal DeGeorge will face the
Tribe in tonight's second game at
8:15 o'clock. Ray McNulty and
Ted Shandor have drawn Boss
Hugh Luby's nod for the Sunday
doubleheader at 2 p.m. Luby sat
out last night's struggle with a
bad leg (sore muscle), but batted
for Collins in the ninth.
It was '-Picture Night" for the
fans, but only 640 of 'em braved
another frigid night. Almost 400
kiddies were present also for the
Salem Police Department's first
Third Base Club-' gathering of
ie season. The cold weather
doesn't seem to bother the little
lads and lassies, at all

ore Fish Sites Open
Today, Prospects Vary
By The Associated Press
Fishing in the upper Deschutes
country opens today (Saturday)
but angling in the high Cascade
lakes will remain closed until May
30.
However, four lakes popular
with fishermen of the area, Odell.
Crescent, Suttle and Blue Lakes
will be open today. All are acces
sible by road. Available for the
first time this season is the huge
Wickiup reservoir in the upper
Deschutes country and the highly
popular Metolius River.
The Oregon Game Commission
issued this fishing report Friday:
Northwest Fishing is poor in
the Clackamas and Molalla Rivers.
Salmon fishing at Oregon City is
fair. Hood River and tributaries
are still high and cold. Steelhead j
fishing is poor. Tillamook area up
stream angling is poor to fair. In
Lincoln County fishing is fair with '
streams low and clear. Best catch
upstart St. Louis Browns. They
knocked out Ned Garver to score
nine in the sixth inning on the
way to a 13-6 romp.
Both the Dodgers and Red Sox
bolstered their league leads by the
wins. The Brooks pulled a half
game in front of the Cubs in the
National and the Boston rookies
opened up a two-game gap on the
Brownies in the American.
Lown almost made history for
the Cubs The 27-year-old former
Dodger farmhand was aiming for
the first Cub no-hitter in 35 years
to the day when he lost his stuff.
Billy Cox ruined his dream with
a clean single to left on Lown's
first pitch in the ninth. Jackie
Robinson hammered his next of
fering to right for a double. Lown
then walked Roy Campanella to
load the bases.
The righthander still might have
escaped but Bob Ramazzoti bob
bled Duke Sniders easy roller long
enough to miss a play at the plate.
Although he got Snider at first,
Cox scored the tying run. After
Andy Pafko was walked inten
tionally, Gil Hodges' long fly
scored Robinson. Carl Furillo
drove in an extra run with a
single to right that scored Cam
panella. The last no-hitter thrown by a
Cub pitcher came on May 2, 1917

in the tenth, 1-0.

loaded. Previously unbeaten Julio
Moreno was the victim of Rosen's
blast.
es have been made on spinner and
worms. Willamette, McKenzie and
its tributaries, fair; Dorena, good.
Southwest Spring Chinook sal
mon fishing is poor in the lower
Umpqua River. Coastal lakes have
been yielding a few limit catches.
Spinner and worms are best for
angling.
Central The only lakes and re
servoirs open in this area are Sut

and Ochoco and Wickiup Reser
voirs. Squaw Creek is closed to
angling from Camp Polk bridge to
mouth. The Little Deschutes is
high and over banks and the Des
chutes from Wickiup to Bend Is
high and murkey but in fair con
dition. Fall River is excellent and
clear. The Deschutes below Bend
is above normal but fishing con
ditions are good. Both the Deschu
tes and Crooked Rivers are muddy.
The Metolius River and Tumalo
Creek are in excellent condition.

Favorite Role
To Hill Gail
Several Other Horsea
Given Chance, Classic
By JOnN CHANDLER
LOUISVILLE, Ky. () Ben
Jones shoved an added - starter.
Top Blend, into the Kentucky
Derby Friday to keep the favored
Hill Gail company, as 17 three
year-olds were entered for Satur
day's $100,000 classic at Churchill
Downs.
That was just about the only
development in a town whirling
like a merry-go-round waiting for
some horse to grab the brass ring
in America's most glamorous horso
race. Hill Gail broke the track
record in winning Tuesday's, Der
by Trial.
This means there will be two
betting entries, the Calumet Farm's
Hill Gail and Top Blend, and the
Myhelyn Stable's Master Fiddle
and Jack Amiel's Count Flame.
The last two are trained by Sol
Ruthchick, the Russian immigrant
who handled Amiel's 1941 Derby
winner, Count Turf, but missed
his plane and didn't see the race.
The odds-makers were tabbing
Hill Gail and his running mate at
7 to 5 but when the crowd of some
100,000 goes to work at the mutuel
windows this is expected to be
shaved down to even money, and
perhaps an odds-on 4 to 5.
Plug man Threat
Blue Man, the big Eastern gal
loper from the White Oak Stable
of A. W. Abott, rules the second
choice in the mile and one quarter
event at 7 to 2. They were quotin
8 to 1 on the Master Fiddle and
Count Flame entry, with 10 to 1
on C. V. Whitney's Cold Command
and 12 to 1 on Sam E. Wilson Jr.'a i
Gushing Oil.
Eddie Arcaro, rated the nation'a
No. 1 Jockey, has the No. 1 horse
in the race as far as post pisitlons
are concerned. When they made
the draw, Hill Gail was pulled out
for the rail slot. If Eddie can make
it Saturday, it will be his fifth
Derby, the sixth for Trainer Jones
and the fifth for Calumet.
No jockey or trainer can match
the Arcaro-Jones record, and only
the late E. R. Bradley has, had
four winners of the colorful Run
for the Roses.
All entries will pack 12 pounds,
equal weight, in this 78th Derby,
first won by Aristides in 1875.
It costs $1,000 to start In the
derby, and if all 17 go the purse
will have a gross value of $125,330,
with the winner netting a sweet
$97,300.
