A sturdv lad from ud Gervais way. Gary Espe by name, Satur
1 day night hurled ihe Salem Valley Motor club into the finals of the
; State American Legion Junior Baseball Tournament at Waters Park
as bis serves tumbled The Dalles out
Vince Genna's Salems meet the
unbeaten Eugene Pitchford Motors
this afternoon at 2 o'clock in the
local ball yard and Eugene can ice
the bunting with' a win. If, Salem
takes the nod, however, another
game will be necessary at 8 o'clock
tonight. i
Espe, recruited by the Salems
from the Woodburn Legion club at
the end of i the regular district
race, gave The , Dalles only four
blows and fanned 13 over the
route. The Genna bunch whacked
11 hits off the' foe's Ron Wright,
a southpaw, and Reliefer Syl
Johnson - Jr., but one of the big
items in the Valley Motor win was
: their wide-open policy on the base
paths.
Early Lead Earned
Salem jumped off to a 3-0 lead
in the first frame as Chet Schmidt,
the snappy little shortpatcher,
walked, stole second and then
went on .to third via Catcher Bill
Hyde's awry throw that tried to
nip him. Schmidt tallied as Pitch
er Wright balked. Firstsacker Phil
Jantze arrived at first as interfer
ence was ruled on Catcher Hyde
and in turn pilfered second. He
.scored when brother Curt Jantze
"delivered an Infield hit and Curt
himself crossed the dish as Hyde
threw wild attempting to stem a
theft of third.
Salem banged over another
"cluster of three in the fourth
chapter as Jerry Gregg was hit by
a Wright pitch. Catcher Wayne
Osborne lined a single to left and
Espe collected an infield bit to fill
the sacks. ' Wright then walked
Twink Pederson to force in Gregg,
Osborne tallied via a passed ball
and Espe dented the plate when
Curt Jantze singled infield. Os
borne registered on an error in
the ninth for the final Salem tally.
The Dalles Runs Scattered
The Dalles talli?d in the first,
lourth and fifth frames. In the
fourth Syl Johnson whacked a
lone double to left and scoreLvia
wild pitch andBill Hyde added
the last The Dalles marker in the
fifth as he singled and subsequent
It scored on a wild pitch.
Curt Jantze led the locals' at
tack with three singles and bro
ther Phil Greee. Osborne and
Espe each had a pair of bingles.

POITLAND-(Special) -Foot-ban
wiU appear on the Oregon
sport scene Sunday when players
for the Oregon and Portland AU-
Etars gather for the fifth annual
Shriners Hospital all-star game.
Multnomah Stadium will be the
scene Saturday night August 23,
the date of the contest which will
launch the most ambitious foot
ball schedule ever attempted here.
Appropriately enough, it will be
kicked off by the Shrine game,
now one of Oregon's most cele
brated sports attractions and one
regarded as "football's -Tinest
Hour." -
Coach Mel Ingram of the Ore
gon All-Stars will caU the roll
of his squad at a luncheon Sunday,
mentor, was "Little All-American'
Vlack
of the meet by a 7-3 margin.
Feller or Lowell Pearce In this
afternoon's crucial, though Pearce
has had but one day's rest. Eu
gene, victor over Portland and
The Dalles thus far in the meet,
likely will start Jack Henkel, the
chunky righthander who stopped
Portland with two hits on open
ing night . , . Salem played error
less ball for the second successive
game Saturday night before
turnout of about 500 faithful . .
Record Crowd
Watches Derby
Crashes, Bangs Dot
Holly-Bowl Program
The largest crowd In the history
of auto racing at Hollywood Bowl
watched the gigantic Destruction
Derby last night, and was well
rewarded for its record-establish
ing turnout. The entire show was
loaded with one thrill after an
other, two of the 30 entries caught
fire and a local driver, Bob Porter,
swiped all there was to swipe so
far as an Individual performance
was concerned.
Porter was entered In the Class
B 30-lapper in a 1936 Ford. He
was knocked completely topsy
turvy on th east turn near the
end of the race, but righted the
buggy and kept on. Then despite
blowing out all four tires and
throwing one, wheel, he came
within one lap of finishing the
spectacular race. -
Definitely not finished for the
evening by any means, Porter had
the car touched up a bit and en
tered It in the post-race "crash"
derby. He lasted about half way
through it, and finally had to
yield to another turnover. He was
the darling of the evening in the
eyes of the huge turnout, esti
mated at around 3,500.
Bud Connet in a No. 78 car won
the Class A 30-lap mainer, and
not unlike all the rest of 1 the
events on the riproarious program,
it was filled with spinouts, bumps,
bangs and narrow squeaks. Lucky
Glasscock was second, and well up
in the running was an unidenti
fied gent carrying the sign atop
his car, -Have Steak With Abe
Snake."
Larry Gardner won the Class B
mainer with Armond Millen sec
ond and Walt Pflughaupt of Cor
vallis third. The latter citizen of
speed also won the 14 -car smash
rumpus as the show's finale.
Anybody hurt? No, amazingly
so. -
It was one of the most action-
packed shows In the bowl's exist'
ence.
