Generally picked as favorites in the single-elimination affair, are Harold Hauk's Salem Vik ings and the Lincoln Cardinals, champs of the Portland race. The Salems, whose lineup consists al most entirely of members of last summer's Northwest Champion Legion crew, rolled through the season with a record of 1 wins and but two setbacks. Cascade's Cougars will go into the tourney as a dark horse, after having upset highly favored Eu gene 1-0 in a recent piayou. Salem's initial action comes Thursday night at 9:30 in a first rounder against Pendleton. Cas cade's debut is at 1:30 Thursday afternoon against Grant, runner up in the Portland League. At 3:30 Thursday Milwaukie battles Medford and the other contest of the first round finds Lincoln facing West Linn at 7 p.m. Coach Harold Hauk Wednes day said he will start his ace Righthander, Lowell Pearce, in opening State 'Tourney action against Pendleton on Thursday night. Ken Pingel will be the hill nominee for Friday's semi finals if the Viks happen to get by the first round. ,The rest of the Salem lineup will consist of Wayne Osborn be hind the plate, Phil Jantze at first base; Twink Pederson, sec ond; Jim Rice shortstop; Larry Springer at third base and Curt Jantze, Jerry Gregg and either Mike Campbell or Paul Beck in the outfield. Bob Stewart, Cascade mentor, will lead with his ace, Dan Fel ler, who shut out Eugene in last weekend's playoff. Mason Fourth At Pendleton PENDLETON W Joe Greer, Yakima professional won the an nual Pendleton Open golf tourna ment here Wednesday by clipping four strokes off par in the final day to nose out the Oregon Open champion, Bob Duden of Portland. Greer shot rounds of 67 and 69 on the par 70 Pendleton Country Club course to finish the three-day tournament with 276. Duden had 69 and 68 on the final day finish with 277. They were the only two to better par of 280. Bud Hofmeister, Hayden Lake. Idaho, shot 70 to 73 to take third place with 282. Next came John Langford. Portland, 140-71-72283 and Bunny Mason, Salem, 143-70- 70 283. Jim Russell, Walla Walla, who held a two-stroke lead at the start of the day's play, slipped ot 138- 71- 76285, deadlocking with At Fieklman, of Tacoma, 143-72-70 285. Greer won $500, Duden $300. Hof meister $250. Langford and Mason $200 each, Russell and Feldman $145 each. Harold West, Pendleton, won $100 for his finish of 286, and Tom Boucher Walla Walla: Joe Steiger, Salem, and Bob McKen drick, Oswego, each got $53.33 for 289s. Industrial Loop Meets Tonight An important meeting of the Industrial Softball League will be held in room 109 of the Senior High School tonight at 8 o'clock and City Director Jim Dimit urges all sponsors, managers and ether officials to attend. Business of the evening will concern plans for the eamoaign, which gets under way early in June. ' Dimit announces that ap proximately a dozen teams have timed for play la the circuit. aus SuDaire ddh m This, that, etc: Might easily be something warm in the forthcoming Oregon Collegiate Conference meeting this weekend at Portland. OCE, Port land State and Eastern Oregon are of a mind to vote the Oregon Tech Owls out of the circuit, and take in the Southern Oregon Red Raiders in their place. The Raid ers recently left the Far West Conference and would like to jointhe OCC. The way we hear it, the other three members don't like the way in which the Kla math Falls school conducts its athletic program . . . The Salem Senators Memorial Day pitch with Tri-City at Waters Field is to be a split doubleheader, with base ball funnyman A. Murray O'Flynn on hand for performances both games. That's the day the Solons hope to do some big business at the gate in an effort to erase some of the financial sting suf fered because of the early-season rin aii t onI urAii)tp tiAfa . . . Speaking of the baseball laff- makers, Wesley J. Schulmerich for SeMtor has okehed the invite from Lewiston that he make with his acts there, but on one condition that being that the Salem Senators are playing at Lewiston that night A real Senator rooter, Wes wants the local club to be in on the additional gate receipts he's certain to draw. It'll be a sort of homecoming for Schulmerich at that, for he managed the Lewiston WI League entry in 1937 (first year for the circuit), and despite racking up 23 consecutive losses for what still stands as a WIL record, the guy was ultra-popular there. Odd thing about that loss skein: The more the club got beat the more it drew at home. Then when the string was finally brok en, the attendance fell off! . . . No, Schulmerich will not put on his acts here again this year.. He feels that two years of the same stuff is enough, and that he's getting too dang old to cook up some new gags . . . The Senators not only got themselves a veteran pitcher in Spectacled Joe Nicholas, but also one who can swing a bat authoritatively. Joe whacked a solid .279 last season in winning 11 and losing 11 with Lewiston. He also committed no errors the entire campaign to lead all flingers in the fielding department . . . Important Road Jaunt for Bevens Too . . That is a very important road trip for not only the Salem Senators, who want to come home as solid first divisioners, but also for their pitcher-coach Bill Bevens. This could be the week and a half that will make or break Bev as, a member of the dab. Fast arriving at the finish of his career as an active participant in baseball, the 35-year-old Bevens hasn't been able to hit the fine groove he was in when a 20-game winner for the 1951 Senators. Which is a normal procedure, for one cannot go on forever. The guy has been the target of more criticism than is his due in the early WI League going. Thankfully enough, most yelps and bleats have come from those who belong to the un appreciable group which doesn't like to see anyone make good simply because they haven't been up to making good themsel ves. There is that fraternity which is jealous of any success by another, you know, and our city has its full membership. Bevens may or may not last out the season with the Senators, and perhaps the current road trip will be the deciding factor. The (Continued on next page) Portland Chiefs For $8,000,000 PORTLAND Off! A proposal for an eight-million-dollar sports cen ter at Portland went before the City Council Wednesday. A council committee recom mended a 15. 000-seat sports arena, a million-dollar baseball park and additional facilities for other at tractions, all to be located at West Vanport, just north of Portland.

(See story for Eye Proposal Sports Center The committee, which has been studying the plan several months, said the site there would provide space for the annual Pacific In ternational Livestock Exposition, other exhibits and conventions. 1 There are 640 acres in the site, but the federal government claims most of it. The Air Force has planned to place a rocket storage depot there. The committee recommended that the city find other property to trade to the government in ex change for the West Vanport site. Chairman Ormond R. Bean, a council member, suggested the plan could be financed either by utility certificates or bonds. Ik - - i .

I Club Reaches OOinOinuY WENATCHEE (Special) The Salem Senators combined tight six-hit pitching by Jack Hemphill with a 13-bit barrage off two Wena tehee flingers Wed nesday night to tnako it two in a raw over the Chiefs in WI League baseball play here. The score was 7 to 1 and the win pushed the Salems to an even .500 level in their bid for a berth in the upper reaches of the standings.

The Senators got one in the third when Connie Perez singled it across, another in the fourth on Joe Clardy's single, an error and Dick Sabatini's single, an other in the seventh on Sabat ini's triple and Milt Smith's single and four big ones in the eighth on five hits and a walk.
