DICK STRITE
Apparently Joe Gordon's reply to our wire was contained
in a United Press story signed by Oscar Fraley that there
is no dissension on the club; that he is not the ringleader in
a movement against Manager Bill Dickey; that he is unaware
of action being taken by the "front office" in a trade that
would send him to Cleveland. Joe is usually a genial sort of
a fellow and we've seldom seen him display temper. But
according to Fraley, Joe was really burned.
And Joe had a good reason to be burned. If local fans
believed that Joe was knifing Dickey it wouldn't help his
standing in the community and his new hardware venture
means as much if not more to him than baseball. . . . It's
possible Joe will write additional details regarding his "press con
ference" ...
Another fellow with organized baseball difficulties is- Woody.
Salmon, the new Snellstrom Braves' catcher. . . . According to an
authoritative report, Salmon was promised a fat bonus from the
Salem Senators and when he was offered only half of the promised
cash he ups and wires W. G. Bramham, president of the National
Association of Minor Leagues, to be placed on the voluntary retire
ment list. . . . The Senators will miss Salmon, who tops the Western
International League batting with a fat .403 average. Although most
baseball fans would like to see the strength better distributed, he is
a welcome addition to the Cascade Baseball League.
Salmon, incidentally, will become a Eugene resident. He will
become associated with a Salem-owned company that has a branch
here. -
Turning the pages of the weekly edition of The Sporting News:
The Cincinnati Reds put on a 20-minute fireworks exhibition, costing
S400, before each night game. . . . Alvln "Blackle" Dark, the sensa
tional Louisiana State halfback who gained All-American mention
in his sophomore year, has been signed as an infielder by the Boston
Braves. . . . Another collegian was signed by the Brooklyn Dodgers
for a $16,000 bonus Joe Tepsic, a football and baseball star at
Penn State. The 'outfielder has appeared in the Dodger lineup upon
occasion. . . .
Jackie Robinson, the ex-UCLA Bruin who is playing with the
Brooklyn farm Montreal club, is no longer leading the International
League hitters, but is still clouting at a .354 clip. . . . Satch Paige,
another Negro diamond star, has been furnished with a two-seated
private plane in order to fill his many engagements throughout the
nation. ... Ed Leiker, Pampa righthander of the New Mexico-West
Texas League, had a near perfect game recently. He allowed no hits
and walked only one man, who was knocked off by a double play,
as only 27 batters faced him. ... In the same league, Abilene de
feated Borger 11-2 with a big sixth inning that saw five home runs. . .
Balls are so scarce in the North Atlantic League that a game had
to be called after five innines because there were no balls available.
. . . The visiting team loaned the home team 12 balls for the next
fray. . . . When the Oshkosh Giants beat Appleton 15-1 recently in
the Wisconsin State League, the first nine batters went down in
order. . . . Firstbaseman Paul Swoboda of Davenport of the Three-I
League made his first error after handling 600 chances.
Dick Ashcom, the former Oregon lineman who played In the All
Star game in Chicago, has written to John Warren from Wayne Uni
versity where he is taking his final year in the medical school there.
Dick will graduate next June and will serve his internship at the
French children's hospital in San Francisco. . . . Dick married a
Medford girl and is now the father of a three-months-old daughter,
weighing 14 pounds, 2 ounces. ....
Bill Brenner, the promising Tacoma fullback who was slated for
a varsity job at Oregon before he entered professional baseball, is
now catching for the Vancouver Capilanos of the Western Inter
national League.
Ohio Stt University has virtually established Itself as the Na
tional Intercollegiate A. A. golf championship on-a permanent basis
through the establishment of a national caddie tournament. . . . The
event, to be held August 19-24 at Columbus, is open to any caddie
regularly employed at a private, semi-private or municipal course
who will not be 18 before August 19. . . . Along with a troph, to be
presented by President Truman, the winner receives a four-year
scholarshin nt Ohio State. . . . The runner-up gets a two-year schol
arship wMch should srive the Buckeyes two of the nation's best
snlfer iaph vr The onlv drawback would be that the young-
ster who wins may decide to take advantage of the scholarship, but
not turn out for the golf team.
Dizzy Dean's Broadcasts
Draw Fire from Teachers
ST. LOUIS UP) Some Miss
ouri English teachers may not ap
prove of Dizzy Dean's baseball
broadcasts, but old Diz will stay
in there and pitch, if the fans
have their way.
The teachers are reported to
have complained to the Federal
Communications Commission re
cently that Dean's descriptions of
local games played by the Browns
and Cardinals were replete with
errors of grammar and syntax.
This, they said, was having a bad
influence on their pupils.
Dizzy, whose microphone tech
nique is as colorful and individ
ualistic as his performances on
the diamond a decade ago, men
nights ago, and business prompt

Scores of letters and telegrams
poured into Dean's radio station,
WIL, almost without exception
taking Dizzy's side and condemn
ing the teachers.
"We would rather listen to you
than the teachers any day, so don't
change your style," was a typical
message.
Dizzy is taking the barrage of
nublicity calmly. He - continues
his graphic, if not grammatical ex

NEW YORK (U.PJ It long has
been a baseball tradition that
there's nothing wrong with a
slumping league-leader that a
series with the cellar team won't
cure, and the Brooklyn Dodgers
proved it Saturday with a 4-1 vic
tory over Pittsburgh.
The Dodgers, who left Ebbets
Field with a IVi game lead two
weeks ago and fumbled it away
to nothing, got all the breaks. All
their runs were unearned due to
two bad Pirate errors.
A three-run sixth inning spark
ed by Enos Slaughter's single
with the bases loaded enabled the
St. Louis Cardinals to turn back
the Boston Braves, 8-1 Saturday
night and maintain a first place
tie with the Dodgers. -
Lefty Johnny Vandermeer,
pitching superbly after a poor
start this season, came up with a
three-hit 2-1 victory for Cincin
nati over the New York Giants. It
was his fifth straight victory. The
Reds, desperate for outfielders,
sent Lonnie Frey Into right field
this first time in his 12-year
big-league career he played the
outfield .
Cubs Take Two
The Chicago Cub won two
from the Phils, 4-3 and 3-2. Andy
Pafko singled , with the bases
loaded in the ninth to win the
first game.
The New York Yankees trim
med the Chicago White Sox, 7-0,
on Spud Chandler's five-hit hurl
ing and now are lOVi games be
hind the Boston Red Sox, who lost
to the Browns. Joe Gordon, Steve
Souchock and Aaron Robinson, all
hit homers for the Yanks.
Jack Kramer got credit for St.
Louis' 5-4 victory over Boston, al
though he needed relief, and be
came the only pitcher to hold
three victories over the Bosox
this year.
Detroit edged Philadelphia, 4-3,
for the Tigers' 10th victory in 11
games with the A's. Fred Hutch
inson, the winning pitcher, aided
his cause with a hit that drove in
run, and scored a run himself.
Feller Wins 17th
Bob Feller won his 17th victory
against six losses by beating the
Washington Senators, 10-2. Hank
Edwards and Ken Keltner each
hit a two-run homer. Feller
struck out five to bring his sea
son total to Z07.
Oaks Beat Angels
In Final Inning
OAKLAND (U.R) Les Scar
sella, the Pacific Coast League's
leading hitter, singled in Mickey
Burnett with the winning run in
the last half of the ninth here Sat
urday to give the Oakland Acorns
a 4-3 victory over the Los Angeles
Angels.
The victory put the Oaks ahead,
3-2 in their series with the
Angels, with a doubleheader slat
ed Sunday afternoon.
Holding the Seattle Rainiers
scoreless for eight innings, Jake
Mooty pitched the Portland Beav
ers to a 3-1 win at Portland in
the cellar series.
The nits were also well 'scat
tered by Seattle's Lou Tost, but
Herman Reich climbed on a sin
gle in the sixth with two down
and scored on Glenn Crawford's
triple against the right field wall.
San Francisco defeated Holly-
ing of Larry Jansen, the Pacific
wood 6-1, behind the steady pitch'
Coast League's No. 1 hurler. It
was Jansen's nineteenth victory
and his eighth In a row.

Los Angles Rams
Sign Tom Harmon
LOS ANGELES (U.R) Tom
Harmon, 26, Michigan's 1939-40
All-American ' back, Saturday
night signed a two-year contract
with the Los Angeles Rams of the
National Football League.
He became the property of the
Rams In a player trade under
which George Halas of the Chicago
Bears released him In exchange
for half-back Dante Magnini, for-
merly of St. Mary's, and former
All-America tackle Fred Davis of
Alabama.
Walsh described as "sour
grapes" the recent statement of
Edward P. "Slip" Madigan, general
manager of the All-America Con
ference Los Angeles Dons that
they had lost Interest in Harmon
because he was too old.
"Harmon is 26 years of age, the
same age as Bob Waterfleld who
last year was the most valuable
player in the league. He has years
of outstanding performance ahead
of him and behind him he has an
outstanding war record which
alone should have placed him
above such a curt remark by Mr.
Madigan," Walsh said.
Harmon will continue his sports
radio broadcasts, having arranged
them to dovetail with his Rams
travel schedule. Halas said he had
been unwilling to play with the
Chicago team since he would be
unable to be with his wife, screen
actress Elyse Knox, and to keep
his Hollywood screen and radio
commitments.
