Rowland maintains, with no lessening of vigor, that the Coast circuit can and will become a thirfl major wheel, if given time ... But the Rowland crusade is confronted by an army of skep tks, all of whom agree that may be three cities are ready to go major but no more! . .

Finstance, might have a reincarnation of the nld Northwest Learue. embody ing such cities as Portland, Ta- PANTS ROWLAND coma, Spokane, Vancouver, B. C, Salt Lake and Seattle unless the latter metropolis found itself with a major franchise . . . Such an eventuality naturally would drastically alter the WIL picture and might bring into the fold such bergs as Eugene and Klamath Falls Pick-Ups From 'Round the Premises Brownie Valdez, Statesman bowling columnist, is one of the men instrumental in helping the Kelly Lumbermen of Mill City fashion that long softball winning streak . . . How seriously some guys take the links 6port may be noted by some of the gals playing with hub by in. the Husband-Wife Tourney at Salem Golf Club ... A lot of the boys have to make hasty alterations on their golfing vocabu lary for an affair like; this. However, sometimes difficult no mat ter who's around when that two-foot .putt refuses to drop . . . Bill Borcher, UO hoop mentor, pitches in a Eugene softball circuit and it'i said Bill take the game real seriously . . . Speaking of sofebalL the entire Industrial loop must have let out a howl of glee when their Ed's Market-Wolgamotfs club humiliated the City League leading Salem Merchants in the exhibition the other night . . i Burdened with the label of being the town's minor softy cir cuit, the win gavea big lift to Industrial prestige . . . The big bat Milt Smith toted when with the Senators not only made the adding machines white hot in recording bis hit production but also was the fuse that set off the entire team ia its offensive sprees. With Milt gone the Solons have slacked off . . . You might call it a contagious thing one man's pace picking up the rest of the cast ... Similiar with the Brooklyn. The home run orgies by the' Bums this season have become so infectious, that Preacher Roe, the elon gated hurler whose name is synonymous with zero hitting, actually socked the first homer of his long major career ... ' Some guys reach the Majors and some don't Bat Pitts burgh's Frank Thomas, obtained by the Bucs as a clean-up re placement for Ralph Kiner, wonders how he ever got up there and so do the Pirates. In a recent stretch of 68 trips to the dish, Thomas whiffed 15 times ... SO you get the idea they kind of miss Kiner in the city of steel ... N&More Worlds for Hogan to Conquer If Ben Hogan should retire from active links competition it wouldn't be any great surprise. Ben is at the top of hi fame; he has no more worlds to conquer. And further the Tan has solidly established himself as one of the greatest if not tho greatest golfer of all time . . . Financially, Hogan should do well for a long time to come without needing to subject himself to the stress of any more tournament play. Among other things, Ben holds a $35,000 a year job as pro at a swank Palm Springs club a job that calls for nothing more than lending his name for purposes of prestige . . . . They' always said of Jack Dempsey that he was a tiger in side the ropes but: mighty, mighty human when not engaged In fistic combat . . . And tho point is borne out in the ease of Prime Camera ... In a recent article, Da Freem recalled the dark days when he was cast aside by his lecherous handlers. At the time Camera had jast been fearfully beaten and partially para lyzed by the blows of Masio Baer. The men who owned Camera had got their wad and were finished with the mammoth Ita lianand as he lay in a hospital Prime was not only a badly battered man but ft frightfully disillusioned one ... , In all those weeks of tortuous confinement only one person came to see and cheer Camera. That was Dempsey . . . Primo says the visit by the Manassa Mauler restored his faith in mankind. And the big guy's faith had need of plenty of restoration . . . Dempsey supplied the tonic that pulled the Italian up front the depths and made him feel he wasn't an entirely forgotten man O'Reilly Takes Two Straight Over Drake; Demchuck Wins In a rugged "no disqualifica tion" brawl Jack O'Reilly showed local mat fans what a real wres tler he really ii by defeating George - Drake; in .two straight falls in the feature! mix at. the armory Tuesday night The match wai-rough and Drake dished out plenty of punishment but O'Reil ly seemed Jo have Drake's style pretty well solved.

Lewiston Win Early Scoring Routs Lefty Bob Collins LEWISTON (Special) Bill Brenner's Lewiston Broncs smash ed over five runs in the first two innings Tuesday night and went on to a 6-3 verdict over Salem's Senators in the clubs' Western In ternational League series opener and it was Brenner himself who went the distance for the pitching win. The outcome left the Sena tors still one game behind top place Spokane, which dropped one to Victoria. The Broncs themselves are now but 2 1-2 games back of Salem in third place. Lefty Bob Collins opened on the hill for Hugh Luby'a Salems and lasted quick as the aroused Lewistons routed the lean one with a three-run burst in the sec first frame. One of the first frame Bronc runs was a homer over the 340 foot right field wall by the former Senator Mel Wes ley. The other Lewiston run in the first was of the weird variety. It started when Ken Heist lined a double off the knee of Salem's Connie Perez at third base and Heist later scored when Perez erred. Perez hobbled about and time was called after the knee- hit, but the little Cuban played out the game. Control Trouble . Collins got into control trouble in the second, yielding two straight wrlks. A scratch hit by Bud Hjelma loaded the sacks and Collins exited in favor of young Larry Borst Heist then came thru with a double, good for two runs and a long fly by Ken Rich ardson scored the other. Borst hurled . well after that blanking the foe until the eighth. Borst hurled well after that, blanking the foe until the eighth. : Salem biffed nine hits off Bren ner, but didn't bunch 'em too well The Solons got one in the first inning when Gene Tanselli tripled to center and registered when Jim Deyo fouled out down the left field line. In the fourth Les Witherspoon, who pulled out of his slump with three hits dur ing the game, opened with a sin gle and tallied when Chuck Esse-j gian finally displayed some of his heralded power with a two base wallop to right center. A double by Tanselli and Deyo's hit brought the final Sa lem marker in the fifth. Ouch!
