Pappa gets to rest between innings, but mamma Is in action at 11 times . . . WIL fans are supporting the new deal in the circuit this season, and much more so than they did a year ago when we had Class Double-A baseball disguised as Class B. League Boss Bob Abel s com pilation of attendance through games of May 31 disclosed that a 41 per cent increase has been made over the same period of a season ago. The turnstile total up to June 1 was 193,640 as compared to 137 339 for the same period in 1951. Abel feels that at that rate the coveted goal of one million customers will be reached by closing time in September. The breakdown on the gate figures up to June 1: Spokane leading with 41.109. Victoria second at 28.859, and then in order, Vancouver 25,314 (despite record number of rainouts). Lewiston 24.704, Salem 21.401, Wenatchee 20,916, Tri-City 17,578 and Yak ima; 15.759. Boss Luby Trying to Land Dick Sinovie Another big help this year is the fact that the pennant derby isn't a shoo-in for a couple of clubs as it was in 1951 when Spokane and Vancouver made a shambles of the chase. Victoria now owns a com fortable lead and Spokane is a distinct threat. But none of the other clubs : with the possible exception of Yakima and Wenatchee. can be yet counted out of the battle. Our own Senators might be getting real tough one of these days, for Boss Luby isn't by any means content with what he', got The long-ball hitting Bill Spaeter Joins the club in a few days, and Luby has been in touch with Joe Engle at Chattanooga, object: We want to beg. borrow cr steal Dick Slnovic if he's avail able. Rousing Richard hasn't been going too well with the Look outs lately, and Engle promised Luby that. if the parent Wash ington Nationals provide Chattanooga with some expected help, Sinovie will be offered to Salem first and foremost. "With that guy in center field for us, and with Spaeter's bat in the liiieup," quoth the Senators bossman, "we could become Just as tough; as any outfit in the league." (Anyone having truck with Washington Owner Clark Griffith please urge that he immediately provide Chattanooga with help.) Charley Congdon Takes Lead In Washington Golf Tourney CLARKSTON. Wash. (-Charley Congdon, Tacoma profession al, knocked four strokes off par here ? Monday at the Clarkston Golf nd Country Club for a 67 and a two-shot bulge on the rest of the Washington State Open golf tournament field. He' toured the front nine In 31, three: under regulation, and man aged the back side with a one-under-par 36 despite an out of bounds penalty and a five on the 18th,- one of two easy par-four holes on the course. His score Monday gave him a 136 at the end of 36 holes. Eddie Hogan, Portland profes sional, was alone at 138, adding a 68 to his 70 of Sunday. At 139 is Bill Welch, former Lewiston pro now at Kennewick. Temperatures in the middle 90s all but wilted the most sturdy players, but cooler weather was promised by the weatherman for Tuesday's 36-hole finals. Duane Bergstrom of Pullman and Bud Ward of Great Falls, Mont., both pros, slipped from their first-day scores to end up in a tie: for fourth at 140. Bergstrom had a 72, Ward a 71.

They open a three-game stand with Bill Brenner's Broncs tonight, and return to Waters Field warfare next Friday night to take on the loop-leading Victoria Tyees in the start of a four-game series. The Salems dropped three of four games to Tri-City as a climax to their 11-game stay at home, and the trio of consecutive setbacks Shooters Wait State Classic Sharp-eyed ahotgunners from all over Oregon and other por tions of the Northwest will start converging upon the Salem Gun Club range tomor row for the start of the annual Oregon State Shoot, a big PITA event and No. 1 clay pigeon party for the local club this year. Local officials expect around S00 shooters to bang away In each of the four days of the classic, which will get under way early Thursday morning. Shooters will register and tune up on the range Wednesday. The prize loot totals around $12,000 and will go Ut the var ious winners in the lS-yard class events, the doubles, the preliminary handicap and the Oregon State Handicap, climaxing- the meet on Sunday after noon.

Hogan, Burke Golf Invalids DALLAS (JP) Ben Hogan and Jackie Burke turned up with stiff necks Monday to match Sam Snead's swollen knuckle, giving a hospital aspect to the National Open golf tournament which starts Thursday. However, most of the advance arrivals for this 52nd blue ribbon championship were complaining of; a pair of more common maladies intense heat and Northwood's j tough par 70. I Hogan, the defending champion seeking his fourth title in five years, and Burke, the season's leading money winner, developed cricks in their necks over the weekend, apparently from air con ditioning. Newberg Loses Despite No-Hit DALLAS (Special) -The Dallas American Legion team Sunday won a 1-0 game over Newberg here, without getting a single base hit off Bob Todeli, Newberg pitch er. Hurler Bob Olson of Dallas gave but one single himself in the tight fray. Dallas scored in the fourth inn ing when Glen Coburn and Don Earl were on base. Earl was trapped off first base and during the run-down Coburn streaked all the way in from second, barely making it to the plate with the run. Olson is the former Dallas High pitching star.

Hessell looked very good in his performance of last week, and the last time Roy was here he fell before Yamato's sleeper in their mix. Bill (Bobby Sox Idol) Melby and the rugged Bob Cummings open the show tonight at 8:30 o'clock. This match will also be a 2-of-3 faller limited to 30 minutes. INDIANS BUT MAJESKI CLEVELAND (JP) The Cleve land Indians bought veteran third baseman Hank Majeski from the Philadelphia Athletics Monday. ruined what had previously been a solid surge toward the first di vision of the WIL standings. All of a sudden the Solon pitch ing went blooie against the Braves, and Bob Collins, Jack Hemphill and Ray McNulty were recipients of the three lickings. The only promising portion of the dates with the T-City crew was Sal De George's four-hit win in the first game. If Silent Sal has at long last regained his 1951 form, there's good reason to believe the local dandies will be a much more po tent outfit than they've been in the first weeks of the pennant race. DeGeorge likely will face the Broncs in tonight's opener at Lew iston. Special Nights Coming When the club returns Friday it will run into four straight spe cial "nights" here. Friday night is the annual and always well-attended "Salem YMCA Family Night," and local "Y" officials are now busy selling tickets for the occasion, hoping to better the 2, 272 the same sortie attracted into the park last season. Special events chairman Gene Vandeneynde has arranged to have a group of trapshooters give an actual demonstration at the park Saturday night, getting the okeh from Park Thede, Salem Gun Club official. The gun club is playing host to the Oregon State Trapshooting tournament the latter part of the week, and Vandeneynde hopes to have four or five of the Northwest's top marksmen show their skill to the Saturday night audience. Sunday's 6:30 p. m. doublehead er will be devoted to "Father and Son Night," and prizes are to be given to dads and their boys, same including a bicycle, gloves, bats and balls. Seattle Next Monday Then on Monday night the Sen ators take on the Seattle Rainiers here in the big exhibition game, the first time in history that a Se attle Coast League team will have played in Salem. Regular WIL ad mission fees will prevail for that game and tickets for it are now available at the ball park or at Wicklund's Sporting Goods store. After the Seattle game the Sa lems go on the road for a 12 game trip. The Sacramento Solons are to play here in another exhi bition battle Monday. June 30. (See "Senator Swat" for up to date batting and pitching marks for the Senators.) A check of attendance figures discloses that for the first 27 games now played here at home a total of 28,926 fans have paid to see them. The total for the first 27 games of last season, when the Salem notched a new gate record was 32.365. The current deficit is but 3,439, therefore, Bears Batter Parent Seals YAKIMA, Wash. (P)-San Fran cisco's Seals of the Pacific Coast League found the last place team i of the Class A Western Interna- I tional League too much to handle as they lost to the Yakima Bears Monday night, 7-4. The Seals of the open one notch above Triple-A) Coast circuit were outhit by their Yakima farm club, 10-8. The hapless Seals had lost seven straight to Seattle in their last series. Yakima stepped off to a two run lead in the first inning off starter Bill Savage, added single runs In the fourth and fifth, a paid in the seventh and one more in the eighth. Savage was relieved by Matt Zidich in the sixth. The Seals were scoreless until the sixth when singles by Jim Moran and Bob Thurman pro duced a run. They got two more in the seventh on an error, a double by Hank Biasatti and sin gle by Will Tiesiera, and finished with a solo run in the eighth on Thurman's single and Bill Mc Cawley's double.

L and Runnerup 7- 3&?-at the coaches, athletic directors and faculty representatives of the nine conference schools hoped to find ways to put the sports program beyond reproach. The officials reached two deci sions. One was to grant another year of eligibility for six athletes Elias Bishara, USC baseball player; Gary Hathaway, UCLA football player; James H. Hutch inson, California track man; Doug las F. Penrose, California swim mer; Grant Spaeth, Stanford golfer; and James Stewart, Stan ford rugby player. Redkey Denied Eligibility They denied Bob Redkey of Oregon State the right to compete in football next fall, ruling that he had used up his eligibility. This was a blow to Oregon State, which had counted heavily on Redkey as a line-backer next season. Redkey was ruled out because he played for Oregon Tech in his freshman year. The other was to retain the rule that boxers, once beyond the age of 16, cannot compete in any but school bouts. No Details Given No details were disclosed on the sports "cleanup." H. P. Everest, acting president of the University of Washington, serving as a spokesman, said only that such matters as recruiting, subsidizing, grade standards and alumni ac tivity were in the discussions, which will continue Tuesday. Results, if any, will be an nounced later. The meeting is scheduled to continue through Thursday. Talks also began on the pro posal to have all conference teams play each other in basketball, but no decision was reached, he said.

The Brooks boosted their National League lead to five game over the New York Giants while tffe Red Sox opened ud a full ram lead over the second place New York Yankees. The Giants, Yankees and Indians were idle. Trailing 2T-0 at the end of six innings in a night game at Sports : I man's Park, the Brooks evened Walcott Bout With Laym Reported Near SALT LAKE CITY JP) - Marv Jenson, who manages young heavyweight Rex Layne, said Monday the proposed Layne-Jer-sey Joe Walcott championship fight in Salt Lake City "is a lot closer to reality than most any one suspects." Jenson 'said the fight would have a dual attraction for the veteran heavyweight champ: a $250,000 to $500,000 gate and a chance to avenge an earlier loss to Layne. Jenson said he had not received any satisfaction in his complaint that manager Jack Hurley had "run out" on a rematch between Hurley's fighter, Harry (Kid) Matthews, and Layne. Jenson said he holds a contract Which gives Layne another chance at Mat thews, who beat him last month in Portland. Jenson said the International Boxing Club said it couldn't do anything about it, the New York Boxing Commission said it was powerless outside New York state, and the National Boxing As sociation said it couldn't do any thing until the state of Washington filed a protest. "I checked with Washington and the commission said it couldn't do anything but suspend the pro moter, Jimmy Fitten, who can't be found," Jenson said. "So it looks like the old runaround." Jenson said the rematch was to have been in Matthews' home town of Seattle. Rock Wools Blast Randle Gordy McMorris' home run fn the second and Don Christanson's and Al Wickert's doubles in the sixth sparked the Campbell Rock Wools to a 7-2 victory over Ran dle Oil in a City Softball game Monday night at dinger Field.

(JP)- The Oakland Oaks and Sacramento Solons of the Pacific Coast League swapped outfielders Monday. Johnny Ostrowski,- 32-year-old right hander who has hit 10 home runs this season, moves from the last place Senators to the third place Oaks. Len Attyd, 24, swaps his Acorn uniform for that of a Jolon. Veeck Sets Out On Trading Trip ST. LOUIS (JP) St. Louis Browns owner Bill Veeck headed East Monday night ready to "trade anybody except Satchel Paige." This seemed to leave the way open for him to dispose of the team's pitching ace of last year, Ned Garver, if Veeck can get what the club needs most some solid hitters. ROBINSON IN TRAINING POMPTON LAKES, N. J. iP) Middleweight champion Ray Rob inson, whose main problem is to hold his weight for ; his June 23 title scrap with light heavyweight king Joey Maxim, confined his ac tivities to road work Monday.

Former Red Sox sluggers Don Lenhardt and Walter Dropo drove in seven of the eight Tiger run against their old teammates, but an error by shortstop Johnny Pesky, another ex-Red Sox play er, allowed Boston's winning run to cross the plate. In the only other game, Bos ton's Braves nipped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-2. Rookie Ben Thorpe drove in two Boston runs to back up Jim Wilson's five-hit pitching. Bob Friend was the loser. Rain washed out the scheduled night game between Chicago and the Senators in Washington. Sauer Credited As Terrorizer CHICAGO (JP) - Quip-tossing Charley Grimm gazed admiringly at the Chicago Cubs' Hank Sauer blasting away in batting practice and boomed at him: , "Her Sauer, dots all r read you chust knock mit der big bingles und across all der runs come yet." The new boss of the Boston Braves then turned to baseball writers and seriously said: "I don't look for that big guy to tail off much. He's a solid hitter and he always finishes strong." Grimm might be a little preju-. diced over Sauer, pacing the Na tional League in hitting with .347; in homers with 14; in RBI's with 54; and in hits with 66. Charley, as Cub vice-president, got Sauer and out-fielder Frankie Baum holtz from the .Cincinnati Reds for Peanuts Lowrey and Harry Walker in 1949. Other pilots like Leo Durocher of the New York Giants and Charlie Dressen of the Brooklyn Dodgers admit they shudder every time Sauer comes to bat, but they think it's just a bot streak. "He's hitting simply great," said Durocher when his Giants dropped two out of three to the Cubs last week. "We'll just have to wait until he cools off. It always hap pens sooner or later." Grimm thinks that as long as Sauer keeps belting the ball, th Cubs now running a strong third will continue to menace the Dodgers and Giants. Bookie Bilkinir i , , iv i . V.aSe IJlSllllSSeCl ! , j )y L,OllXt WASHINGTON (JP) Because the government confessed error in relying on unlawfully seized evi dence, the Supreme Court set aside Monday the conviction off three Seattle men on charges of using an unlicensed radio to bilk horse race bookies out of large sums of money. The appeal turned on the right of Federal Communications Com mission investigators lacking search warrants to seize the transmitter from an automobile parked in a public garage. The convicted trio contended the evidence was obtained by an un lawful search and seizure and hence should not have been used at their trial.
