The Heckert nine, champions of Corvallls were win ners over the Legionnaires In both games but the locals have secured some excellent talent for the third game and are In hopes of taking them Into camp. Tho game Is ex pected to be a hard fought battle as the visitors will have a good team and the game will be no cinch lor the locals. It is expected that several of the ball fans will be out as the Legion nine is planning on starting Albert "Biddy" Bifihop on the mound for the locals. Bishop has been hurling two hit games and going like a world beater In the east and It Is expected that he will be able to mow the visitors down. This will be the first game here since last year that Bishop will appear in. Ho was suprised to piny with the Senators lat Sunday but the game was cancelled.

Next Sunday the Solom Senators are to meet tho Independence baseball team on the local diamond In what Is expected to be a hard fought game. The Independence team has been on the heels of Manager "Frisco" Edwards for tho last few weeks with challenges that are hard to turn down. They claimed that the Senators are afraid of them and are coming for 150 or nothing. They plan on taking the locals Into camp to got the $150 and have loaded their team with numerous stnrs. Inde pendence has been playing good bnll all season and nro winnors of the Polk county chain plonshlp. Manager Edwards hns also boon making efforts to schedule games with other Btron teams. He hns two games practically cinched with Kalnma, winners of the lower Co lumhia championship. Knlnma won over the Senators In two gnmes last year and have a much better g gregntlon tha;. Inst. Edwards can have a game with thnm for Labor day but 1b not as yet sure whether ho will take the game as he wishes to get the Cycol nine, of Portlnnd for that dy. All of the old line up will be out for tho Independ nee game Suudny with Bishop added. Independence Is planning on fcrlnKiiiR nearly three hundred rooters from around the surround 1np country and will try to tnlk tho locals out of the game If they can, As nn added fenture to the game Sunday, Grahmn Shnrkey, profes sional of the Illlhee Country club, has challenged any member of the two teams, claiming that he can kick an apple further thnn any of the other players can hit It. "Fris co' Edwards hns accepted that challenge. Sharkey hnn several Ct tints planned. He will attempt to hit tha golf boll further thnn tho ball plnyers can a basehnll. "Spec" Kcene and Hehnckman will probably attempt to show him that he can't. Duko Kenworlh, manager of tho Portland Heavers last year was able to hit a golf ball several yards further than the other bnll plnyers were able to knock tho lnu-lmll and Sharkey thinks that he can do the same The exhibition was supposed to take place Inst Sunday but rain Interrupted.

BRUCKMAN, Manager Breitenbush Hot Springs Detroit, Oregon To the Editor: With reference to the penitentiary investigation the coroner's jury has closed its labors and is now at rest, tor which we are very thankful. Al though they fixed no responeibil ity. they fixed In the miud of ev ery citizen of the state vho has a aiind, the heuds upon -which the responsibility Bhould have been placed by the jury. Nobody ex pected anything from the investi gation and, therefore, nobody wan disappointed. Now, that the high and mighty governor has called his own gpeciu! committee in order that they might bring a different intellectual current to bear upon the streams of gossip and conflict ing stories that have circulated from the pen, guards and others even prior to the oventful Auguut 12 that prison discipline was en tirely absent and the management rotten to the center and then there have been so many different inter pretations put upon the actual es cape, the governor probably hopes that his committee, composed of such mighty men of valor and fame, will be able to unravel from thle tangled web a single story that will be pulliiLtlns and reason ably to the public and certainly will be able to show that there is no possibility of Its being mis management on the part of his ap pointee, the prison warden, thut lives were sacrificed and untold expenses laid upon the citizens of the state. When six or eight had men escape acroea the prison yard, over the wall, onto the public highway and finally Into the woods then after much diligent search by posssj they are returned to the prison, the fatted calf is killed tor them, some of them treated to ice crcum, clguretle.i! and picture shows, none subject to any sort of punishment and then after a few months of quiet, two of the most wury and obnoxi ous of them are placed in cells to gether and the third In close prox imity to the cell of the other two, it would seem to the public that tho committee will have to use something mor. than the ordinary whitewash brush If they get thai all covered up and rub the dirty pots out of the publics mind and lead us to believe that the prison management is efficient. As far back as Hie tory record th one who consent to be governed Imve always paid the price of ln- uftlciency and carelessness of pub lic officials. No doubt, we will bo confronted with the argument that a new prison Is the only pos sible solution of tho problem of holding bud men away from so ciety, but the people of this state should not and probably will not tolerate any such bunk. Wbut sonse Is there In the argument thut a new prison will hold men when they have been placed n cells together until their plans arc carefully laid and then allowed to run pell-mell over the Institution carrying all kinds of bundles to and from their cells without the least interference from any one? Then when all Is ready demand that the radio be turned on while they cut a hole through which they may work their way to liber ty. Will the governor's commit tee recommend some kind of ma terial for the new prison that will hold men under such clrcum stances? Theso facts were all brought to light during the coro ner's Investigation. Will the gov ernor's committee attempt to dis prove any or all of it? It Is a self-evident fact that the things brought out by the first jury are not satisfactory to the governor and no doubt he hopes that be baa chosen a committee who will find facta aa he wants them to be. Evidently he is not so muoh Interested In arriving at truth as it is but as Walter M, Pierce would like to have It. Out of the score of things that the warden might have done to fore stall the break he failed to do any of them and thereby proved him self entirely wtlhout ability to cope with an emergency. Can the committee cover up all of these short comings and Impress upon tne public mlud the fact that the warden wua able to and did con trol the situation? When all la taken into account it would appear to an unbiased ob server that the blood of those al ready dead and if any further sac rifice of human life that the en tire affairs Is upon the head of the governor and his appointee. Can the committee show It other wise? A. B. ANDKKSON. Sulem, Or., Aug. 24, 1925. UPSETS FEATURE F There have been several upeete in the button plays at the Illlhee Country club, according to the word Issued by Graham Sharkey, professional of the club yester day.

Far rar, postmaster of Salem, won over Fred Williams during the week. Williams seems to be off of his regular game the last few weeks. Next Sunday the Illlhee CounJ try club team will go to Albany where they are to meet them In IS Prospects for a winning football team for the 1925 season of the Salem high school, while not ex ceptlonally bright, are fairly good and Coach Hollis Huntington rla beginning to think of tho future. Several new men will be available from the junior high school but the locals have lost eight of their lettcrmen from last year. The loss of Dennis Ileenan, star athleto and quarterback last year, will be felt the keenest although there are sev eral good prospects for that berth for this season. The men lost through gradua tion are Heenan, Gould, Noeske and Perry In the backfleld. Caug hlll, captain of the team last year will also be lost. Harris, Coffey and Propp on the line will be ab sent. Last year's men who are ex pected back In uniform are Jack son, re ilar guard, Temple and Lyons, nds, and John Drager, tackle. Jackson was elected cap tain of this year's team but resign ed thinking that he might not re-, turn. Kelly, half -back, was elect- ed captain to succeed Jackson and; will be captain although Jackson may be back. Bob Drager and Kelly In the backfleld are also ex peeled out for practice when the first call Is Issued. Nearly thirty-five men are ex pectcd to ai.swer the call for prac tice as soon as school opens. Sev eral of the candidates have had some experience In the lower schools and are expected to fur nish pretty good material. Others who are expected out are Blaco, IT, Lyons, Joe Davis, Dolby and Eckel Linesmen Bocke, Phillips, Rex Jones, French, Rogers, Keppenger, Olinger and Ashby. Huntington expects two outside players to move to Salem with their families this season and they will be eligible for football. Murphy one of the boys has had three years experience with the Stayton eleven and is reported to tip the scales at 225 pounds. Stevens of Gervals who has also played with Jeffer son high school of Portland Is al so expected to be here. Five games have been scheduled so far this year and several oth ers are in prospect. Three of the games are with Salem's old rivals, Albany, Corvallls and Eugene. The other two are with Oregon State Norma) and Hlllsboro. Chemawa may be on the schedule. Other games are being arranged by Bob Kitchen, athletic manager, and Coach Huntington and a full sched ule Is expected. Thanksgiving Is being held open for some good j team, probably one of tho best J teams from the Portland high , schools. Newberg has also express ed the desire to meet the red and black eleven but has not as yet I asked for a date. Last year the locals had only four games on the schedule but they are taking care that they have a good schedule ar ranged for this season. SI I Waiblngton, Aug. 26. (A. P.)
