Man ager Harr Storey teat bis charges against the Liafield College Wild cats ia an Informal scrimmage, one that lasted weH over two boars and saw Just about every one ia a Salem uniform get into it in one way or another. Finn Leds Pack to Win In Marathon BOSTON Iffi Long-striding Vei kko Karvonen, a 27-year-old mail clerk from Finland, finished 800 yards in front of Britain's favored Jim Peters Monday to win the 58th Boston A.A. marathon. Karvonen's time of 2 hours, 20 minutes and 39 seconds was more than a minute slower than his sec ond place 2:19:19 in the event last year but was remarkable in the light of the warm weather and mild headwind. Peters, holder of the two fast est recorded times for the standard 26 mile, 385 yard distance was clocked in 2:22:40. Finland made it almost a clean sweep as Karvonen's teammate and only other entry from that country, Erkki Puolakka, came in third. His time was 2:24.25. For the second straight year the rugged going up "Heartbreak Hill," gome eight miles from the finish, decided the race. Karvonen, who had been matching strides with Peters in a two-man duel after the first six miles, pulled ahead by five yards as the pair started the climb, held a 100 yard edge at the top and lengthened his lead on the final downhill stretch. Heavy Bowling Action Slated SEATTLE OP Heavy action in the open team division will com mand the spotlight in the 51st an nual American Bowling Congress as the world series of bowling swings into its 32nd day in Seat tle's Field Artillery Armory Tues day. With booster teams dominating the big 32 alley arena through the Easter holidays, few changes in standings were registered over the weekend. Four ranked teams will invade the tournament Tuesday night. They are Art's Men's Shop and Ebonite of San Francisco, Capri Salami, of Oakland, and Wenger Recreation, of Grand Rapids, Mich. All are labeled as possibilities to crack the top ten. The Capri Salami five boasts a former ABC all-events champion in Ora Mayer, who took that title in 1935. Three other team members have 200 or better averages. This, thit, etc.: Watch for great improvement in attendance at Yakima this season. Some energetic natives, led by former Washington State football coach Babe Hollingbery bought up Junior Mercy's ball club Holdings, sold stock to over a thousand other natives and now call the corporation the Yakima Valley Baseball club. .Not a bit unlike the same situation here back in 1951, baseball interest has been noticeably revived in the Washington city . . . Kewpie Bar rett says hell be no pitching gen eral manager for the Yaks, add ing that he's just too dang busy selling advertising, making speeches and attending banquets. "Besides," winks the little round man with the vast Coast League background, "we're gonna have a plenty good enough club without me." . . . New statisticians for the WI League this time. The circuit has switched from the Howe News Bureau of Chicago, which handled the stax for many years, to "William J. Weiss or ganization of San Mateo, CaL, which does the batting, fielding and pitching figures for the Coast, California, Pioneer and Arizona Texas loops, among others. In making the change. WIL'ers feel they'll get faster service from California adding machines . . . Connie Perez came alone from Cuba after all, leaving wife and daughter behind. The Perez heiress has been ill, and Conrado won't be bringing them this way until the child recovers . . . Sacramento had burly Chuck Essegian ticketed for the town Senators via option also, but the handsome heavyweight with the Stanford background balked. Said he wanted to play closer to his Los Angeles home; so the Sacs sent him to Ventura of the California State loop. Try and figure that one if ytu can. When an aspiring young ballplayer would rather perform in a Class C circuit instead of Class A there's something wrong. And we doubt if it's entirely homesickness. . . . WI League 'Salary Limit Still a Farce Not that the accusation Is anything new, bnt we still Insist the WI League's S6,(N per month salary limit is a farce. Aad something should he done ia minor league baseball laws aad by-laws to erase the item which creates the existing illnslom. As is known, no league member can have a payroll exceeding $5,000 per month for players exclusive of manager. When broken down, this would provide something like $350 each for th other 17 players on a team. It's no secret that the WI circuit has gobs of players making much more than that figure each month.
