THE CAPITAL JOURNAL SA1.EM. ORKCON SATURDAY. JUNE 15, 1929 MT. SCOTT MAKES 2ND APPEARANCE HERE SUNDAY PAOR FIGHT RUSSELL WILL OCCUPY MOUND FOR SENATORS With the close of the first half of the Oregon-Washington baseball league scheduled for June 23, and with Mt. Scott having a mathe matical chance to go into a tie with the Longvtew Rangers for first place, the outlook for a tight game between the Mt. Scott aggregation and the Salem Senators next Sun day afternoon on Ollnger field is particularly bright. The visitors are going to do everything possible that would give them a win, while the home boys, with the memory of that early season loss still fresh in their minds, are Just as determined to send a brother Sax and his sup porters back: to Portland with their defeat of the year. Russell, the big boy, who deserved to win last Sunday against Kelso, will nrobably he on the mound against Mt. Scott. He really pitched a three hit game against the Wolves. Sax, the man who has pitched vir tually every game this year for Mt. Scott, for an average of .500 and who was largely responsible for the Senators' early season defeat, will again offer his choice assortment oi shoots to the locals. Drafting of younger players may put some pep into the batting of Edwards' men. So far this season they have shown a lack of ability to hit the ball. A continuance of this kind of performance with the bat against Mt. Scott will no doubt spell defeat, for the visitors play a brand of ball that tends to take advantage of every break and with the maior lty of ball games being won or lost by small margins, the breaks gcner alfy decide the game. Frisco has decided that, like Port land, he may change the name of his team. "Certainly we can't do any worse under the name of Collegians, than we have under the title of Senators." the manager stated Sat urday. "However, I hope it works better than it did when Portland traded its beaver tall for a duck bill." The line-up for Sunday contest will nrobably find Sullivan at first. Lamb on second, Gibson or Hubert Ashby at short, Hafenfelt at third and Cloninger. Quinn, Sutherland and Ollnger taking care of the out field. Cardinal will probably do in? receiving. Albanv Dlavs at Longvlew Sunday and if the former wins, they will have the first half cinched. A loss to the Alcos would give either Kelso. Mt. Scott or Montavllla a chance to tie for first place. Kelso will play Montavllla at Portland. Albany and alem will engage in a barnstorming series at Browns ville next week. The are scheduled to nlav on Wednesday and Thursday in connection with some kind of a celebration there. . WHEN SIMPSON RAN FASTEST CENTURY IN HISTORY 1 VJX "- xV , -i ...

By UNITED PRESS Mowed down under a barrage of 23 hits, the league-leading Missions bowed to the lowly Seattle Indians in the mast humiliating defeat the Reds have suffered this season. Tie fimtl score was 18 to 2. Imbued with a hitting spree such os they had not exhibited before this season, the Indians began in the inning by hitting almost every tiling McQuaid had to offer. Hub bell and Knott who followed him to the mound fared no better. The Reds collected but eight scattered hits from Kyle Graham. A kid pitcher, Vernon Gomez, chalked up another victory for the San Francisco Seals over Sacramen to in a 13 inning session.

HEAVY TRACK FOR AMERICAN DERBY EVENT Homewood, 111 (LP) Clyde Van Dusen, the Man O War colt, which won this year's Kentucky Derby, was the outstanding favorite of turf fans gathered here Saturday for the historic $50,000 American Der by. Van Dusen's odds held firm at 8 to 5. Sixteen horses were entered for the clastic, with at least 12 almost certain to start, and many of these bore records which proved them able runners. Yet Van Dusen's sparkling performance in the Ken tucky Derby where he mushed hU way through mud and slime to con quer his field left him alone toda as the favorite. African, R. T. Wil son's son of Olambla, was second in the odds at 3 to 1. War Buddy Paul Bunyan, Ray Gibson, Grand Prince and Bowler all were listed as doubtful starters. The track .Saturday morning was still wet and heavy from recent rains, so heavy in fact, that almost no amount of sum nine before post time could make It fast. The fans were made glad, however, by an official forecast for clear skies and higher temperatures, conditions which assured an attendance approximately 70,000 and possibly 100,000. In addition to Van Dasen and African, a few other horses were given last minute consideration among the betters. These Included Windy City, Karl Eitel and Mino taur, all of which have proven their ability to splash their way under heavy going. Dr. Freeland, Preak' ness stake winner, created little flurry In the betting.
