By Leo II. Petersen
(Uiiiud 1'roui SiorU Editor)
New York, April 23 mi The
first returns are in from the 1945
major league pennant races and
with but two exceptions they arc
not surprising.
it is, if course, far too early to
draw an accurate lino from the
few games played thus far, but it
looks like it is going to be pretty
much the same old story with
both American and national lea
gue strength again centered In
the west.
They may only be flowers that
bloom in the, spring, but the Chi
cago White Sox and their cigar
imoking manager, Jimmy Dykes,
are at the top of the American ,
loague. standings a, position far
loftier than had been forecast for
the hilless wonders from the
south side of the windy city, and
as surprising as their success hasi
been, the performance of the
champlonjSt. Louis Browns has
been JuffttS'disappolnliiig., -
L.HST year, manager i,uke se-
well broke the Browns oft the
barrier with nine straight victor
ies. Baseball men called them
the usual spring morning glories
and pointed out that games won
at tho. start of the season didn't
mean too much.- Maybe not, but
those nine straight in the long
run meant tho pennant for the
Browns. This far they have been
able to win only ono out of six
games and if another tight race
failed to place. Oregon City's Lin
Rincarson hurled the Discus 137
feet- inches. All other events
were gathered in the Portland
bag.
Grant Is High
Five of the 10 first places went
to Grant, whose men ran up a
total of 32 M points, with a second,
third and a fourth place title in
addition, .lefferson's Democrats
were second, with 1!) points going
to the 1944 winners.
Scappoose clinched the B title,
largely through the efforts of Bob
Anderson, who won the discus,
broad jump, was on the first place
shot put team, and ran on the sec
ond place sprint medley group.
Scappoose totalled IS points
12 512 of w hich were Anderson's
to squeeze out Boaverton, the
1944 B champions, with 16 points.
In the class A group, points
scored by other teams were:

those early losses could mean the
difference.
The-White Sox, on the other
hand, were considered the weak
est of the western clubs. All
they have done thus far is win
five straight from Cleveland and
St. Louis.
Otherwise the American.league
standings today are pretty much
in accordance with tho pre-season
predictions. The New York Yank
ees have been feasting on the
relatively weaker eastern op
position, boating Washington and
Boston. The chief resemblance
of theso two teamsvto major lea
gue clubs is in their names. They
would have a hard time finishing
in the first division of tho pre
war double A leagues.
The rest of the clubs in the
junior circuit Detroit, Philadel
phia, and Cleveland have been
performing about as expected. ,
In the national, to the surprise
of no one, the world champion
St. Louis Cardinals again have
shown their usual power although
they aren't In their accustomed
position, first place. But it may
be too long before they take over
the lead. The Chicago Cubs and
the Pittsburgh Pirates still look
like the clubs which will give
the Cardinals their most trouble,
although Frankie Frisch's crew
dropped five of its first seven
games. But the power is there
and eventually will show.

New York, April 23 (OT Major
league baseball, which in late Jan
uary considered giving up for the
duration because of manpower
shortages and possible public dis
approval, drew 409,287 paying
spectators and thousands of non
paying servicemen during the
first week of the season, a United
Press survey revealed today. ,
The National league drew 214,
227 fans, to 25 games and the
American league 195,060 to 23
games. The average of better than
8,500 fans per game was consid
ered highjy satisfactory in: view
of the weather, which in-many
cities has been cold and damp.
Last season the weather forced
many postponements. At this
same time only 31 games had
been played before approximately
288,000 fans. However, on average
attendance, the 1944 mark was a-
muc better witn crowds ranking:
about 9,500 per game.
Largest crowd of the young
1915 season was the 30,671 which
attended the Brooklyn-Giant game
at New York's Polo grounds yes
terday in near freezing weather.
The 20,069 at the Cincinnati open,
er was a close second. The Giants
are far ahead in total attendance-
so far with 53,600 present for
three games. - ,

wail of a. week-old baby girl more
than the roar of the crowd spun
red Paul (Dizzy) Trout of the De
troit Tigers today In putting his
pitching time table more than two
weeks ahead of a year ago when
he won 27 games.
The Infant with the lusty lungs
is Diane Ruth Trout, who arrived
last week only a few hours' be
fore her daddy pitched his first
victory of the 1945 campaign, an
11 to 0 shutout over the Browns
a St. Louis. Yesterday he notch
ed victory number two, a 6. to 3
six-hit job over the Cleveland In
dians before 23,063 appreciative
home fans.
Sox Win Two
The White Sox won a double
bill at Chicago from the St. Louis
Browns, 4 to 3, and 5 to 3. Al
most as surprising was the losing
streak of the Browns, who have
dropped five in a row after win
ning their opener, a far cry from
the 1944 pace of nine straight tri
umphs at the start of the season.
Steady pitching paid off in both
White Sox victories, Joe Haynes
and Orval Grove each going the
route to turn in eight-hit jobs.
The New York Yankees won
their fifth game in six starts at
Washington defeating the Senat
ors, 5 to 2, on a three-hit pitching
stint by Hank Borowy his sec
ond victory. The Yanks sewed it
up with three runs in the first
inning on an error, a single bv
Johnny Lindell, a doublo by Nick
Etten and a single by Joe Buzas.
Sslxtn Straight Lost
Ituss Christopher won his sec
ond game tor the Philadelphia
A's, 6 to 1, holding the Red Sox
to five hits as they lost their sixth
straight at Boston. Three fast
doublo plays kept Christopher out
of trouble as his mates made 12
hits.
The Chicago Cubs set the pace
in the National, upsetting the
Pirates in both ends of a double
header at Pittsburgh, 3 to 0, and
5 to 2.
The Braves and Phillies split at
Philadelphia, Boston winning the
opener, 3 to 2, on a single and a
steal in the seventh by Tommy
Holmes and another single by
Carden Gillenwater. Elmer
(Butch) Nieman's two run homer
for the Braves in the ninth of the
second game went to waste when
the Phillies made three runs in
their half to win, 7 to 6, on two,
walks, an error, a double by Bus-'
ter Adams, and a long foul fly by
Johnny Peacock.
Dodgers Take Over

game of their series with the

Curt Davis, who has won two of
the three Brooklyn victories thus
far. He. kept the Giants out of
scoring range most- of the time,
although, allowing 10 hits. The
Giants remained In first place,
however, a half game ahead of
the Cubs.
The Cardinals dropped to third
by splitting a double header with
Cincinnati at St. Louis, winning
the opener, 2 to 0, as sophomore
Ted Wilks took a duel from the

Frank Dasso. The Reds pulled the
second game out of the fire by

a rarity for the smooth-fielding
world champions, set' up the runs.

New State Record
For Picture Man
George Rasmussen, who last
year surpassed the state high
school pole vault record in a final
leap after the jneet was officially
over, repeated at Eugene this
year and, had his picture taken
while going over the bar.
In competition, Rasmussen had
to split first place honors with
Art Bakke of Jefferson, both boys
going over the bar at 11 feet 11
inches. This, incidentally, was a
record for the relays.
After the competition ended, a
photographer from the Eugene
Register-Guard asked Rasmussen
to go over once just for a pic
ture. Rasmussen accommodated,
and the bar was set at 12 feet 3
inches.
Rasmussen went over without
touching the bar.
