Harvey Storey Hurt
Sliding Into Third
By the Associated Press
Little Brooks Holder, San Fran
cisco Seals' outfielder, rated as a
mighty man at the bat today.
Holder came up in the ninth in
ning against Portland last night
with the score tied 3-3; look a
healthy swing at one of Bill Rad
onits' fast ones and crack! The
ball went sailing over the right
field fence for a homer and the
wininng run.
Despite the 3-4 defeat Portland
remained at the top of the Coast
league's standings, by two full
games.
San Diego climbed into second
place, winning 4 to 2 over Oak
land, while Hollywood, defeated
6 to 5 by Sacramento's Solons,
slipped back to a tie for third with
the Senators.
AI Marchand and Hal Spindel
of Seattle hit homers in the fir.it
inning, the latter with two on to
start the scoring that gave the
northern club a 7 to 3 win over
Los Angeles.
Nearly 7,500 fans-, who saw
Holder paste the pill out of the
yard to break up the game at Port
land, also saw the night's "honor"
player carried from the field.
Many of them had turned out
to honor Harvey Storey, Forest
Grove, Ore., boy, playing right
field for the Seals. He connected
for a single to drive in a run but
was severely spiked in the knee
cap sliding into third a few min
utes later and was taken to a hos
pital, where the injury was re
ported serious. He was snagged by
his own spikes.
Larry Barton and Nick Cullop
of Sacramento hit circuit clouts
in aiding the Senators conquer

trict No. 4, under which the ath
letic plant will be developed and
directed. Mr. Bryan stated that the
tract will be turned over for de
velopment on two conditions: (1)
that the school district live up to
their part of the bargain, which
calls for expenditure of $6,000 on
the project; and (2) that the cham
ber of commerce athletic field
committee successfully raise the
$6,000 which they pledged towards
the project. The chamber group
has approximately $1,000 already
on hand towards the field.
The Spencer Butte park project
at the present time calls for little
actual development on the huge
peak looming to the south of the
city. It was hoped that enough
funds would be available in the
park department to. brush out sev
eral main pedestrian trails, from
both cast and west slopes, as well
as one bridle path.
Idealistic plans, which call for
the eventual linking of the athletic
field with the Spencer Butte park
by a large parkway extending
south towards the butte, will have
to wait for the present, Mr. Bryan
intimated Saturday morning.
The athletic field project assures
both Eugene and University high
schools of a place where they both
can play their home football
games. Turfing of the University
of Oregon gridiron tended to leave
both high schools "out in the cold"
as far as a place to play home
games was concerned last fall and
it was this situation which moti
vated the newly-passed proposal.
The Spencer Butte park pro
posal was the result of wide
spread agitation on the part of
civic groups and clubs last fall
when it was feared that the his
toric landmark which rears its
peak to the south would be defaced
by the woodmun"s axe.

Lion Loses Bout With
Deer As Locomotive
Comes To Rescue
CANON CITY, Colo., May 21.
fPl A deer, a mountain lion and
a railroad locomotive crew figured
in a strange adventure in the
Royai Gorge of the Arkansas river
and the lion lost.
Engineer J. p. Batie said he
brought his Denver and Rio Grande
western locomotive to a stop just
ten feet from where the mountain
lion had knocked the deer to earth
and was about to kill it.
Seeing the locomotive almost
upon him, the lion leaped to flee
but struck a fence and was momen
tarily dazed. Fireman Lee Barker
grabbed a coal pick and hit the
beast in the head, killing it.
The deer struggled to its feet
and bounded away, only slightly
hurt.

Red Shutout
Giants, 4-0
Grove Beats Brownies
For Seventh Straight
By SID FEDER
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Prof. Will McKechnie's Magic
Marvels, the show that wowed 'em
in Boston last year, is giving the
boys and girls in Cincinnati a lot
of entertainment this season, and
spreading no end of anxious mom
ents among the seven other clubs
in the National league.
Prof. Will is about as slick an
article as the baseball business has
seen since John McGraw. He can
pull more rabbits out of fewer and
littler hats than the very best ma
gicians of vaudeville's heydey.
The McKenchnie influence in
one particular case stood out all
over the place yesterday as John
ny Vandermeer blanked the slip
ping Giants, 4-0, with a five-hit
job of elbowing. Only one of Bill
Terry's Terriers got as far as third
base against him as he handed the
champions their second straight
shutout defeat and made it three
wins in four starts for the Reds
against the league leaders. The
win boosted the Reds into the .500
class, with 14 victories in 28
games.
Giants' Lead Cut
For the Giants, the setback cut
their league lead to 3 games
over the second-place Cubs, who
almost tore down the fences in
the Phillies' "telephone booth" ball
park with a 22-hit attack for a
16-7 victory.
In the only other National league
game, the D.odgers topped the
Pirates, 7-5, although Van Mungo
was belted out of the box.
Cleveland's Indians maintained
their slim first-place margin in the
American league by trouncing
Washington's slumping Senators,
6-3. The second-place Boston
Red Sox stayed In the thick of the
fight by belting St. Louis pitching
for 22 hits and a 16-2 decision
over the Brownies. Lefty Grove
won his seventh straight in this
one, not only pitching an eight
hitter, but driving in four runs as
well.
Schoolboy Rowe lasted seven in
ning, just long enough to be charg
ed with the defeat as the Athletics
trounced the Tigers, 5-2. The
Yankees-White Sox and Cardinals
Bees games were rained out.
Kess Beats Martin
In Exciting Race
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
was adamant, saying that the re
sults had in no way "changed my
convictions . .- ; nor my desire
to be of service to the people of
this state." Hess only said that
he hoped the party would "go
down the line in November."
Martin's was a campaign based
on suppression of labor violence,
fealty to the president without
"rubber stamp" submission and no
quarter for radicals, while Hess
claimed Roosevelt administration
support and CIO nn AFL endorse
ment, the only time the two
unions' have agreed in Oregon.
The governor lost his battle
primarily in Multnomah county,
home for a third of the state's
population and bitterest scene of
the turmoil in the labor industry.
It was significant that Martin,
self-styled labor champion .and
enemy of racketeers, lost almost
every lumber county of the state,
drawing most of his strength from
the farm regions.
