Cottage Grove, Or., May 21 By
defattng Cottage Grove 10 to 4 here
yesterday, the Salem Senator base'
bait club went Into undisputed lead
ership ot the Willamette Vallty
League, being now the only unde
feated club. Bend, which up to yes
terday was undefeated, forfeited i
game to Albany as the result of a
row with the umpire.
The local club threw a real scare
Into Salem by leading in the game
here 2 to 1 until the fifth inning.
Clem Keber, Salem second baseman,
knocked a home run in the fifth to
tie the score. This mighty blow put
new spirit into the Senators and
they collected six runs in the sixth
and two more in the ninth.
Johnny Beck pitched his usual
masterful game holding the Cot-
tag Grove boys to scattered hits.
Cottage Grove's two stellar hitters,
Hill, first baseman, and Seller, right
fielder, were ... the only batters to
make their blows count.
Albany, Ore.. May 21 With the
aid of an unflinching umpire and
two deputy sheriffs, Red Rupert's
Albany Alcos achieved . the im
possible yesterday afternoon by de
feating the mighty Bend baseball
club 0 to 0. Al Genders declared the
league game forfeited to Albany in
the seventh inning when Bend ar
gued too long over a disputed de
cision. Albany at the time led 2 to 1.
The dispute arose when Jenks,
Albany player, stood three and two
with two out. The sixth ball was
called a strike, but Eubanks, Bend
receiver missed it. Jenks went to
first and Patterson, a man on base,
came home. Bend declared Jenks
attempted to bunt. Murphy, Bend
Hurler, protested so violently that
deputy sheriffs took him from the
field. Finally Umpire Al Senders
ordered the game forfeited to Albany,
