Page Six THE REGISTER. GUARD. EUGENE, OREGON . , ; ; Jty ness Causes Mat Card Change; Moran, Lipscomb to Qas H I6H CLIMBER By LEE RUSSELL Here's hoping that before the season is over we can witness an. other game such as the one played at the Fairgrounds last night when Rubenstein's clashed with Fenn's Tiremeru Not that we like to see ball play ers get so sore that they begin slugging each other all over the place, but it Is really a thrill to see two teams between whom there is intense rivalry fight it out, tooth and toenail, to the very last ditch. And that's Just what happened in Monday night's Softball game. For four innings Vern Adams was absolutely untouchable. The Rubes didn't even get a good look at the ball. In the meantime Fenn's had touched Bill Jones for two safe blows it's true that they were scratch hits but they count Just as much as good clean ones into the outfield. Then came the big sixth inning climax when Fenn's, seven runs behind, were fighting to get within striking distance of the Rubes nnd those Tiremen were really rolling. The ensuing bit of fisticuffs was no more than an outgrowth of the intense rivalry that exists between the two teams. The Rubes knew that Fenn's were gunning for them and wanted the game badly, and likewise, Fenn's knew that the Rubes would like nothing better than to hand them a good all around pasting. It was terrific to hear and watch and . the bedlam that broke loose in the stands with each and every play on the field and raised the pitch of the game to near hysteria. In short It was colossal. So If you want to spend an eve ning of genuine entertainment and get more for your money, keep an open date for the Softball play offs. It Is a near certainty that the two teams will meet and that, gentle reader, will be a ball game, Kenna To Meet Harry Elliott Gudiski, Becker Bout Moved To Semi-Final COMPLETE CARD Main Event: Sailor Moran vs. Jack Lipscomb.

But lake another look. Thir teen of the squad graduated and then lo make matters worse 12 more flunked out and finally, to add Insult to Injury three got married. Such a bimrss. Eugeneans can "point with pride" to the young golfers who hied themselves off to Portland and promptly established a name for themselves by batting out some of the best scores of the first day of play and it wouldn't surprise this department ono littlo bit if those same kids went some place in that tournament before they are finished. Those appearing as winners in the first doy's play from Eugene were Ralph Huestls, Rodney Tay lor and Miss Mary Sutton. And speaking of young golfers. Eddie Brietz of the AP mentions a young gentleman down In Slam min' Sammy Snead's home terri tory who is likely to oust Snead from the running in West Virginia. Drletz claims that Karl Tolley who learned most of his golf watching Snead play and who is at present the pro at the select Green brier country club has everything that a youngster needs to be a winner.

Owen and Kenna will probably be rematched at an early date for the four round boxing event that was to occur Thursday. Owen was advised by the commission doctor not to appear on Thursday night's card as the development of a lung cold had caused a temperature. Knowing that he could not possibly train for the fight nnd would undoubtedly not be In condition to meet Kenna, Owen preferred to woit until a later date for the bout so that he could be in top condition for the en counter. Mnran-I.lpscomb Disgusted The unexpected switch in the card shoved the scheduled opener between Johnny Gudiski nnd George Becker in the semi-final spot. The balance of the card re mained unchanged. The long expected breach be tween Jack Lipscomb, the Hoosier Hot-Shot, nnd Sailor Moran came last Thursday night and precipit ated the main event for Thursday night's show. Lipscomb and Moran had for some time been more or less on the outs, and when the two showed that they would rather argue than co-op erate in their team match against Becker and Elliott on last week's card the last tic between the two was broken and the clash for Thursday Is the result. Lipscomb Is known among local mat fans for his rough tactics, whllo Moran, recently returned from the southwest, bus shown himself to be one of tho cleverest and at tho same time one of the toughest in the wrestling game. Add tho two up and you can expect almost any kind of a slam bang affair as the result. Moran has shown exceeding contempt for Lipscomb Blnce the defcut of the meanie pair a week ago and contends that "Lipscomb's own grandad won't recognize him when I get through with him." "Sure I'm going after him," Moran told a Register-Guard re porter. "He can't leave me in the ring with n couple of pugs and stay outside and pout and then not get what he has coming." Lipscomb refused to comment on tho situation merely stating that "we'll sec Just what that guy can take and don't think that I 'm not going to dish it out." Popular George Becker, the Atlantic middleweight, will meet an almost unknown quantity in the semi-final when he faces Johnny Gudiski. Gudiski also ap yeared on last week's card, but the mad Russian was unable to really work on his 2uu-pmmrl Canadian opponent, Johnson. According to Gudiski, most of his time was spent trying to fig ure out Just what he should do next to get the mountainous possible world series In sight. iVIid-srason finds the Cubs in third place and slipping. Consequently owner I. K. VVrlgley lowered the boom on Grimm and replaced him with Gabby Hartnct, left, Cub catcher. Varoff Victor Al Stockholm STOCKHOLM, Sweden, July 21. (P) A strong team of touring track athletes from the United States started tho second day of the International meet here with a handsome lead over competitors from all over Europe. Led by Ben Johnson, Chuck Fenske and Fred Wolcott, the in vaders took five of yesterday's seven opening events. Johnson, captain of Columbia's track team, won the 100 meters in 10.4 to start ; his teammates off. Fenske, the Wisconsin star, de feated n fast field including Jon Johnsson, Sweden's widely herald ed star, in the 1,500 meters in 3:49.4, only one nnd six-tenths of a second off Jack Lovelock's Olym pic and world record. Johnsson was clocked in 3:52.2 while Har tikkn of Finland, who finished third, was caught In 3:52.6. Wolcott, Rice's hurdling star, captured the 110-meter highs in 11.2 with Lidman of Sweden sec ond in 14.8. Hay Mnlott, of Stanford and the Olympic club, created a new Swed ish record when ho won the 400 meters in 47.B, a second better than the old mark. George Var off, of Oregon, was another Ameri can winner. He took the pole vault with a leap of 13 feet 11 25-32 inches, the only American victory in three field events. Pete ?.ngnr. of Stanford, was fifth in tho discus throw with 100 feet 4 3-G4 inches to a winning toss of 164 feet 1 21-64 inches by Kotkas of Finland. Estland of Sweden won the shntput with a heave of 52 feet 7 20-32 Inches. ' jl jriM '. '4 . -tiff" - 4. .

The unveiling of the large fig ure of garrulous Gabby as head man of the Cubs, succeeding Cholly Grimm, overshadowed the rest of a colorful baseball picture, which included the Yankeesrln dians doubleheader for the Amer ican League lead in Col. Jake Ruppert's big ballyard, and the game-and-a-half grip the Pirates held in the senior circuit chase. How About Tony? The Cubs, famous for years for changing hosses in mid-stream, did it again in loading Grimm's woes on the 220-pound frame of the big fighting Irishman.- You can rest assured there'll be no change in policy, for, in giving the heav-o to one fighter, Grimm, Phil Wrigley is leading off with another in Hartnett. Both of them keep their sleeves rolled up. But in the background, sbme- how, you see the quiet figure of the other half of the board of strategy, Tony Lazzeri, and you wonder how he fits into the pic ture. There's the angle that Gab by is getting the chance because he deserved it, but think back to last October when Tony signed with the Cubs, and recall that tongues were wagging all over the place about old Poosh 'Em Opp's ambition to boss a big league club. . While Gabby and his new job took the play from the National League pennant race for the mo ment, it was somewhat less im portant to the junior circuit fans, and particularly those in the neighborhood of the Bronx, N.- Y. Some 75,000 were all set to pack their way into the house that Ruth built there to take in the "crooshal" bargain bill between the Tribe and the Yanks. Feller, Allen To Pitch Gehrig and company wont, into the pair of tilts boasting a half game edge on the tribe. Both clubs led With . their aces; the Yanks relying on the southpaw slants of Lefty Gomez and right hand shots of Rufus "The Red" Ruffing, while Oscar Vitt called on Johnny Allen and Bobby Fell er. Meantime, Pittsburgh and St. Louis continued to be the chief battleground in the National League race. The .Piratss, by splitTA? a twin bill with the Phillies yesterday, increased their lead by a full game over the Giants, who took two beatings at the hands of the Cardinals' southpaw pitching. The Phils featured a ten-run fifth inning to wallop the Bucs 11-0 in their first game, but Russ Bauers' turned in a five-hitter for a 4-1 Pirate win in the night cap. Clyde Shoun stopped the Giants with four hits to give the Cards a 7-2 victory in their open er. Lefty Bob Weiland fanned ten and Johnny Mize hit three homers and the Cards clicked 7-1 in the afterpiece.
