HIGH
CLIMBER
By DICK STRITE
Joe Gordon of the Yanked and
Bobby Do it of the Bed Sox, both
Oregonlans, second-basemen and
"clean-up" hitteis, should have
their best major-league seasons
this year and stage another battle
for the American league batting
crown. Late last June, at the
height of their campaigns, Joe
was leading Bobby, .367 to Ml
but pre-season tilts have not Indi
cated the Bending competition
Cordon, in four games reported
In the Sporting News, collected
five h ts. including two doubles,
and two runs batted in for a .357
average. Doerr. on the other hand,
failed to collect a hit In three
games reported. . . , Joe handled
29 chances and Bobby 16 chances
without error. . .
The other local product now In
the majors, Bill Sayles, pitched
two hltless and scoreless Innings
as his New York Giants defeated
the Red Sox, 4 to 0. . . . The big
ex-Oregon righthander, who won
11 and lost 12 for Louisville in
the American Association last
year, is expected to stick with the
National league club as long as
Uncle Sam is willing.
A recent report from Los Ange
les said that Elmer Mallory, the
Junction City youngster who play
ed short for Oregon before sign
ing with the Angels of the Coast
league, would be able to play at
least half and possibly the entire
season with Bill Sweeney's team
. . . But Mallory, who Is slated to
enter the army air corps, wasn't
In the lineup when the Angels de
feated Oakland, 9 to 8 . , . An
other familiar name was In the
lineup, however. Wimpy Quinn,
who played third base at Oregon
and third and first for Vancouver
In the Western International be
fore moving to Los Angeles, played
In the outfield for the Angels, hit
ting a home and a single. . . . The
Chicago Cubs attempted to make
a hurler out of him and the form
er Webfoot pitched and played the
outfield In the Three-I league for
seasons. , . , His appearance with
the Angels was a mild surprise.
Local baseball fans will have
an opportunity to see blg-tlme
baseballers In action on Howe field
Friday afternoon when the Uni
versity of Oregon Webfoots meet
the Camp Adair Timber Wolves.
The soldiers boast fine club,
sprinkled with players with or
ganized baseball experience.
Most prominent among the
visiting players will be John
Henry "Jack" Knott and Roy
Chester 'Beau" Bell.
Knott, the 37-year-old right
handed pitcher, has been in or
ganized baseball for 20 years, the
past 10 years In the major leagues
and was a member of the Phila
delphia Athletics' pitching staff
until enterina the army. The for
mer Southern Methodist collegian
won only two and lost 10 for the
A's last year, but the s-foot-2,
200-pounder is a better twlrler
than the 1942 season records indi
cate. In 1939 he won 11 and lost
6 for the Chicago White Sox, and
his best season was in 1934 when
he won 10 and lost 3 for the St
Louis Browns .... In 1932 the
106 strikeouts while playing with
switch hitter hung up a record of
Milwaukee of the American Asso
ciation. Bell, an outfielder and first
baseman with the Browns, Tig
ers and Indians for five seasons.
after six years in the minors, has
a life-time batting average of
.301, not counting last year's por
tion. The 25-year-old Texas A &
formance with the Toledo Mud
Hens of the American Assocta
M graduate batted .344 and .340

ex-Eugene high sprinter and foot'
ball halfback, has been offered a
bnscball Job with an Ogdcn,

was offered a contract a few years
ago following a tryout at a north'

All Clubs Swing Into
Action Wednesday
WASHINGTON, April 21 0JB
War Manpower Commissioner
Paul V. McNutt was the only
pitcher who lasted out the game
Tuesday as the Washington Sen
ators exploded for six-runs in the
sixth inning to score a 7-5 vic
tory over the Philadelphia Ath
letics in the opening game of the
major league season.
A crowd of 25,093 more or less
chilled fans saw the game.
In the absence of President
Roosevelt, who is on another war
inspection tour, McNutt was call
ed upon to toss out the first ball
that sent the season on its way.
The silver-haired commissioner,
once a hurler for the University
of Indiana, carried out his assign
ment faultlessly which was more
than could be said for the Wash
ington and Philadelphia pitching
staffs.
Luman Harris, the A's right
hander was breezing along behind
a 3-0 lead and seemed headed for
a shutout victory when the roof
suddenly caved in on him in the
sixth. The hitherto handcuffed
Senators broke loose with a sur
prising burst of concentrated hit
ting power that took its toll of
Harris and two immediate suc
cessors. That was the ball game.
Leonard Gives Way
Before the game was over
Washington added another run and
Philadelphia added a fourth pitch
er, but neither development was
of any great consequence. Mean
while, Washington had Its pitching
troubles, too, but only briefly.
The veteran Dutch Leonard
started In quest of his first open
ing day victory in five seasons. He
was still looking for it last night.
The A's hopped on him for two
runs in the third and another in
the fourth. Dutch gave way to a
pinch hitter in the fourth and Alex
Carrasquel came in to finish the
Job with a masterful bit of relief
hurling that earned him credit for
the victory.
Russell Christopher who suc
ceeded Harris and pitched to only
two batters, was charged with the
loss. ,
As it was. McNutt Ditched the
best ball.
His one pitch was a Perfect
strike that went into the waiting
glove of Leonard who promptly
pocKeiea the prized souvenir. Pre
ceding the traditional first-ball
tossing by McNutt was the flaa-
raising parade to centerfield led by
senate democratic leader Alben
W. Barkley of Kentucky. Amer
ican league president Will Har
ridge and Washington club own
er Clark C. Griffith. Senate re
publican leader Charles McNary
of Oregon watched the ceremonies
from a box seat as did a dozen col
leagues.
McNutt Burls Strike
Then came McNutt's stint. First.
he exposed his handsome profile to
me cameramen, men went into a
snappy overhead wlndup and toss
ed the strike that launched the
1943 season one which McNutt
predicted would see its way to the
finish despite the exigencies of
war and the draft.
About the game itself, Philadel
phia nicked Leonard for two runs
in the third on a single by Elmer
Valo, doubles by Jo-Jo White and
Jim Tyack and an outfield fly.
Two walks, a sacrifice and a single
by Valo added another in the
third.
Then disaster befell the A's in
the sixth and it was a former
teammate Bob Johnson who
started all the trouble. He opened
with a sharp single to right center.
Before It was over, Washington
added four more base hits which,
with two walks, a hit batsman and
a fielder's choice, were good for
six runs. Stan Spcnce delivered
a two-run single to right-center
with the bases loaded.
Harris, Christopher and Roger
Wolff in turn sought to stem the
attack, but in vain.
The A's countered with twn In
their half of the seventh on a walk,
singles by Eddie Mayo and Tyack
and Gerry Priddy'. wild throw
Then Carrasquel turned on the
neat and Philadelphia was help
less.

District Track Meet
Starts at 10 A.M.
Inclusion of Coos and Curry
counties in the District 4 track and
field meet here April 30, along
with the usual entries from Lane
and Douglas counties, will make
necessary the staging of prelim
inaries at 10 a. m. the morning of

er of Eugene high, director of the
district meet.
Runners, jumpers and tossers
from North Bend, Marshfield, Co

will make the district meet one of
the strongest in the state. Winners
will qualify for the state cham
pionships to be held here the fol

Pierre LaBelle to
Vie Again Saturday
Pierre LaBelle, the popular
Frenchman who is virtually pound
ing on Pacific coast light-heavyweight
door, will appear in the
semi-final attraction of Match
maker Don Owen's weekly wrest
ling show at the Pearl Street
arena Saturday night.
LaBelle has amassed an evi
able record in his three previous
appearances here triumphs over
Billy McEuin, Bulldog Jackson and
Tex Hager. Apparently there is
no stopping the Frenchman until
he is matched against Champion
Jack Lipscomb, and possibly not
then. Owen said Wednesday that
he was attempting to sign LaBelle
against another outstanding title
contender and offer a title tilt to
the winner. LaBelle's opponent
has not been found to date.
In the meantime Lane county
grappling fans were staging long
and heated arguments regarding
the probable outcome of the mixed
boxing-wrestling match between
Lipscomb and Elton Owen. The
local referee will be the boxer,
using six-ounce gloves, and Lips
comb will be the wrestler.
"Under ordinary circumstances
a wrestler has a great advantage
over a ooxer, uwen said; "but I
believe I know enough wrestling
to keep out of the clutches of Lips
comb. One thing is certain, and
that is I'm going after a quick
knockout."
The headline attraction of Sat
urday's performance will be over
a 10-round route, with each round
of three-minutes duration. The
rules call for Owen to score a
knockout (Lipscomb counted out
the necessary 10 seconds) or for
Lipscomb to score two falls (pin
Owen's shoulders to the mat for
three-second counts) to register
victories.
The local matchmaker, who ex
pects another capacity attendance,
said he would announce LaBelle's
opponent not later than tomorrow.

should strengthen the ties of Pan
Americanism. The enthusiasm of
Uncle Sam's, citizens for today's
general opening also should warn
the Axis that the United States is
taking the war in stride, even
though that 'stride is mighty big.
Considering the Pan-American
angles of the Washington open
ing, we note that (1) President
Roosevelt was unable to throw
out the first 'ball in traditional
fashion because he was doing
some important pitching down
Mexico way; (2) Vice-President
Wallace, likewise was unable to
toss the initial "pill because he Is
in South America, and (3) the
Senators beat the Philadelphia
Athletics, 7-5, aided by Senor
Alejandro Carrasquel of Venezu
ela, who pitched the last five in
nings for Washington and was
credited with the first mound vic
tory of the 1943 campaign.
The value of major league base
ball to the morale of civilian
United States and as a listening-
in diversion for our service men
overseas often has been pointed
out. But the importance of the
diamond divertisement as a
bond of mutual interest between
the U.S.A. and our neighbors In
Canada, and particularly in Latin
America, too often is overlooked.
Most Latin-American countries
are extremely baseball conscious.
Millions of fans in Mexico, Puerto
Rico, Cuba and the nations of
South America follow the prog
ress of our major league pennant
races with the same enthusiasm
as our home folks. And they play
me game inemseives so proii
ciently that thef have sprinkled
our minor leagues with renresen
tatives, and even sent some of
their stars up to the majors.
Right now there are five Latins
in the majors: Carrasquel with
Washington; Hiram Bithom of
Puerto Rico and Salvador Hem.
andez of Cuba with the Cubs
Roberto Estatella of Cuba with
the Athletics, and Napoleon Reyes
of Cuba with the Giants.
If we have another wartime
major league season in 1944, we
can expect to see many more
Latin-Americans in the opening
lineups.
