The same, which proved a iair ex. blbltlon, considering It was the first of the 1030 season, was witnessed by DDroximately 600 persons. Falling on the slants of Fortier, Albany pitcher, In the first three Innings, the locals pounded out eight hits for a like number of runs. Kea mis took the mound for the visitors at the start of the fourth and sue ceeded In holding the Senators to one lone tally In the fourth. After that the lanky twlrler from the Hub city held the Senators to two lone hits and no runs. The Senators scored four runs In the first inning. Ted Olrod went to lirst via the free route and was ad vanced to second on Paul Oirod's sacrifice and scored a moment later on L. Oirod's single Into center. Angst, left fielder for Salem, play ing his first game for the Senators, tripled into left field and scored shortly afterwards on a wild pitch. Stelger struck out and Luke Oill hit a two bagger into center, mil stole third and scored when J. Stritmater dropped Favors' pop fly. Edwards lanned for the third out. 8alem scored in the second when Jones went to first on a single, ad vanced to second on Ted Oirod's sin gle, went to third on Paul Oirod's sacrifice and reached home on L. Oirod's sacrifice fly. Three more runs came In during the third inning. Steiger singled to left and Oill popped out to J. Strit mater. Favors singled into center with Stelger going to third. Favors went to third when Edwards smack ed out a two bagger. Favors then scored and Jones was sare at first when Patterson dropped the Salem pitcher's fly, Edwards taking third. Frisco scored on Ted Oirod's sacri fice fly. The last score of the day for Sa lem was made by L. Olrod. He sin gled, stole second and scored on Angst's drive into center. Albany went down In order during the first three innings, not a man reaching first. In the fourth inning, J. Stritmater singled, went to second on Wilkinson's single and scored while Salem was chalking up a dou ble play against Wilkinson and D. 8trltmater. Russell who relieved Jones on the mound was touched up for two hits in the seventh. This brace of two baggers, together with two walks, gave Albany three runse. Nance, the first man up walked. He went out at second on a fielder's choice play, with Beamls safely on first. Haync was given a pass to first. Fortier put one into the center field for two bases, scoring Beamls and Hayne. J. Stritmater flew out to Stelger while Fortier scored on Wilkinson's two ply swat into center. A light rain fell through part of the game but did not Interfere with playing.

(UP) Whether Primo Camera. Italian heavyweight, can ever again enter a prize fight ring in Cali fornia, will probably be decided Monday when the state ath letic commission noidj a special session. A report calling for revocation of Camera's license In this state will be submitted to Commissioners James Wood and William H anion, by Commissioner Charles Traung, who had charge of the Investiga tion which followed the Camera "Bombo" Chevalier fight, which ended abruptly In the sixth round when a Chevalier second tossed in a towel. Further recommendations of Tra ling's report are for the suspension of Bob Perry, the second who tossed in hte towel, suspension of Robert Laga, another Chevalier second, and suspension of Frank Churchill, Car nera's western representative. A change in the rulings, to pre vent further fiascos, such as the Camera fight was generally con ceded to be, will be recommended by Traung, who will suggest thatrto stop a fight, a second must step into the ring, and signal the referee, instead of tossing In the sponge. It is not believed that the fight er's purses $13,000 for Camera, and $1500 for Chevalier, will be held up. Current belief Is that the two other commissioners will concur with Traung's recommendations and that California has seen the first and last fight of the "ambling Alp.' SILVERTCN TEAM DEFEATS SCOTTS Silverton The Silverton Junior high baseball team dfeeated Scotts Mills high school squad here Fri day afternoon 10 to 4. The locals Jumped onto the offerings 01 John son, Scotts pitcher for 15 hits. Two base hits were made by Lov- ett, Silverton and Haskins, Scotts Mills.

We had nearly all the letters there, but, as Andy says, "we didn't have 'em numbered right." Anyway this new comer to the ranks of the Senators looked like a real ball play er Sunday. Snagging Fortler's high fly In the third inning was a real Job, but he handled it nicely. Ted Olrod was on the spot too, and could have made the out. If there are more uncomfortable seats than those in the dinger stand we have never been unfortun ate enough to try them out. Too wide to lean back on and not high enough to stretch one's legs, they are the worst ever. After an hour on those seasoned planks, one longs for a perch on the Southern Pacific steel rails. Here's hoping the school board makes enough money soon so that some real seats may be placed In the stand. Jones had the Alcos guessing throughout the -first three innings. and it was not until the fourth did Albany get a man oh first. J. Strit mater and Wilkinson each secured a single in that stanza. Wilkinson's throw to first In the seventh to catch Angst after the latter was almost to second base gave the crowd Its first real laugh of the day. Wllkie looked a trifle foolish after the play, while Beamls cnided him for his absent mlnded- ness. We expected to see Frisco Ed wards in the hospital Monday after being Durneo in the back by Beamis' pitched ball in the eighth. However, the Senator manager was around bright and early, apparently in good conamon. nothing like having good tough constitution, Leo. Totals 32 9 12 24 15 2 Albany AB R H PO A E J.

Umpires, Shy Hunungton and Hcmenway. George Wllhelm, the genial bank er from Harrisburg and president of the circuit, donned a cap and swish ed over the first pitched ball. The prexy's effort was a real hooker, which almost got by the plate. Luke Gill took his high school boys out to the penitentiary Saturday. All of them were allowed to come back into town despite the fact they clouted the prison pitcher's offer ings all over the back yard. A wise crack from the gallery at Sunday's game: "The census report shows 10 men missing from Albany; all of them must have been ball players." This statement occurred along in the second inning. During the closing part of the contest, the Alcos resembled a ball club. Beamls had a great deal to do with that, however. Beamls looked as if he was going to hit his left foot every time he made a delivery, but fortunately the extremity was pulled down each time before ft casualty occurred. Frisco's statement that he had a ball club this year, apparently was CLOSE CONTESTS FEATURE START CASCADE BALL Close games and big crowds fea tured the start of the second season for the Cascade ball league which swung into action Sunday. Mill City defeated Jefferson 1 to 0 on the latter s diamond. This game was a contest between a seasoned moundsman, J.

VALSETZ EXCURSION ATTRACTS FISHERMEN Independence The fishing excur sion to Valsetz, by the V. & S. rail way, for the pleasure of fishermen, was well patronized by local sports men and many out-of-town people. Several cars from Salem arrived In the small hours of the morning to go on the trip. Good catches were made and all spent a pleasurable day fishing and picnicking. The train left at 4:30 o clock in the morning and returned, leaving Valsetz at six. no wild rumor. All players looked well In their positions, even though Edwards went to sleep three or four fp?t off first base. You Will Always Want to Stay Home If You Live On . .,' . .

BEAVERS TAKE TWO BEATINGS FROM SENATORS By the UNITED PRESS Sacramento turned the traditional Easter Dress Parade Into a parade of runs and belted the Portland Beav ers in morning and afternoon games 13 to 3 and to 3. The Sacramentos took the series 6 to 3 and sent the Beavers home to open against the Missions with but three wins out of 13 games. The morning game was not with out comedy and heroics. -Sacramento rapped Fullerton, Cascarella and Ortman for 13 runs in the fourth Inning which should be some sort of a league record. Nine tallies came after two were out. Deacon Jones breezed through to victory after the carnage. Bloomer and "String" Plynn. the boy southpaw, opposed each other In the afternoon before 5500 fans and the Sacs outlasted the Beav ers. Plynn held Portland to five hits. Ken Williams hitting three.

The Oaks collected five tallies in the third inning of the second game and coasted in to victory on seven hits. Howard Craghead was laced for 11 but he closed the gate In the clinches. Oakland took the series, 8 to 1. Hollywood aced out Los Angeles In a ten inning encounter, because crafty Oscar Vitt played a hunch and came up with a piece of pie. He decorated the scenery with pinch nitters in the tenth and when Mike Maloney appeared to be getting no where, he slipped in Hankus-Pankus Hulvey after two strikes had been called. Vitt wished for a hit from his third base station and Hulvey obliged, scoring Bassler. The second game was called at the end of the Zachary's List Of Wins Broken Washington.
