With the dis trict American Legion Junior Baseball teams standing by for the take off on their season next Sunday, Chairman Bruce Williams warns that the Oregon City entry could be the one to beat. The O-City team is supposedly by far the best that village has had in years ... As for Salem's Capital Post entry. Coach Vince-Genna lost heavily from his crack unit of last season, but had 55 kids turn out for this year's i team, indicating that the interest will be there if the class isn't. Were the 1952 title to go to the team whose coach works hardest with his j kids, the Salems would win it in a walk. We've never seen anyone I put in the ambition, time and energy in coaching teen - agers that ! Genna does with the Legion Juniors . . .

League Prexy Bill Beard reports there Is a crying need for both .cam sponsors and coaches, as usual. The kids want to pUy ball and most certainty should. Tet every year It seems to take herring and scratching to get enough sponsors and coaches to provide the youngsters with their due. Because of lackadaisical efforts on the parts of too many guilty villagers, the softball sport is gradually becoming extinct here. Let's not let it happen to the junior baseball program for the kids too. Sponsors can write off as advertising cost what little expense there is involved in backing a Junior team. And if their audible criticisms of how the Salem Senators play ball is an indication, the city is loaded with prospective coaches. So what say we get with tads Junior ball precraan and pat it back up to the level upon which It flourished only a few years age when from 490 to S99 youngsters were oa the teams. Sponsors and coaches should register with Beard Immediately at Wicklund s Sporting Goods store. Someone Put Snatch on Yamatos Red Shoes We don't know who put the snatch on 'em, but whoever did cop Rassler Toi Yamato's brilliant red wooden shoes at the Armory last Tuesday night has the Jap mat nasty hissing all over the place. Seems that the shoes are made of expensive hard wood and are treasured by the mayhem-minded Oriental. He wants 'em back, natch, and has asked' city gendarmes to recover them for him. We rather Imagine that will be a toagh assignment for Tiny Odle A Co.. for rasslin fans have no sentiment for time matadors who list choking, pulling hair, etc., among their "boras." Yamato Is a dirty one, and hasnt a friend in the Joint when bo ramies. If he were a Bin Melby or a George Dusette, bo's probably get the shoes back, all polished and tied ipii i pretty pink ribbon. Come to think of it, Yamato should consider himself fortunate. The way he goes about his stirring up the animals, 'tis lucky the lady or gent who did cop the shoes didn't whop him over th head with em ... Conaht Racks Up New WIL Pitching Record When Spokane f linger John Conant beat Lewiston 6-5 on May 18 he notched a new WIL record. The win was Conant's ISth in a row (over a two-season span), and topped the old mark of 12 straight pitching victories owned by both Sandy Robertson of Vancouver's 1950 club and Bob Kerrigan of Tacoma, who flipped his dozen in a row the same semester,. . . Answer to good many queries of late: George Vic Is still with the Seattle Rainier. The IMS Senators first sacker now does an occasional bit of first baslnr and outfielding for the Seattle, but is mostly used at a pinch-hitter. Last we heard of Woody Salmon, slugging catcher for the same '46 team, he was helping 'em build Detroit Dam. And as for Dick Wenner, third member of the '46 team's memorable. wreckli.g crew, he's out of baseball entirely. .Interrogators probably had the same thought we've had lately brother, wouldn't it be wonderful if the big bats Vico, Salmon and Wenner carried in 1946 were only on this year's power-less Salem team ...
