The American league, standing by it's "rabbit" ball, is nasning more ana gaudier nome runs tnan ever before. It's still a hitters' league in the fullest sense of the word. The National circuit, with its less lively sphere. Is play ing them close to the vest, regaling its patrons with low-hit, fast-field-lug exhibitions. - Through yesterday's games there had been a total of 38 lour-basgers hit in the American league, compar ed to 19 in the National, and the pitchers of John Heydler's league generally have fared much better than those of the Junior circuit. Just what the tans' final decision Skits and Scratches According to a story in the Eu gene News we are to have a second Cascade baseball league west of the mountains this summer. An organ ization of eight clubs has been form ed in Lane and Benton counties and decision has .been reached to name it the Cascade league. The original Cascade league was formed in Linn and Marion counties several years ago and is still going strong. Clubs included in the new league are Yon. calla, Thurston. Cottage Grove, Co burg. Westfix. Hills Creek. Redsides and Heiiig theater of Eugene. While the name "Cascade League" has not been copyrighted it might be a good idea to arrange a championship ser ies between the winners of each group following the close of the reg ular season. We sincerely hope the powers that be can avoid the wrangling and bickering which characterized Junior baseball last year. The start of the 1932 season, however, isn't exactly reassuring. An agreement reached between representatives of several towns gave Capital post the right to first call on the services of all the eligible students in Salem high and the two junior high schools. With this understanding in mind, the lo cal post agreed to cut down Salem s territory to a considerably extent. Now, however, it develops that through the state baseball commit tee's interpretation of residence of a student, Salem stands to lose some of these outside boys. Naturally Mie original agreement has been abro gated. A second meeting of interest ed persons will be called soon. Harold Hauk, appointed successor to "Frisco" Edwards as coach of the Salem Junior squad, Is capable of doing a good job. Right now the available material looks none too promising but the kids have a habit of rallying around and making good, so no one should despair this early in the game. Hauk will have a good chance to get acquainted with the prospects at Parrish as well aa a number of other schools with which he will come in contact during the regular Junior high playing season.

It was the largest crowd of the season thus far, and It was treated to a typical slam-bang performance, Connie Mack's two aces, Lefty Glove and George Eamshaw, were treated very roughly, Ruth, Lary and Dickey leading the assault on them with tne Yanks' daily quota of homers. The slim Casttlian, Lefty Gomez. scored his second win of the year over tne league champions. The Washington Senators kept pace with Detroit at the tOD of the standings with a ninth inning rally mat oeat tne Kea sox 4 to 3.

Sam Gray of the St. Louis Browns hurled his second shutout of the year in downing the weak-hitting White Sox, S to 0. Carey Selph. rookie lnfielder, made two ot the Sox' three hits. Red Lucas, who at last seems to have a club back of him worthy of his talents, pitched the ambitious Cincinnati Reds to a 7 to 3 win over the Chicago Cubs before an inau gural crowd of 30,000 at Wrigley field. Joe Morrisey, rookie shortstop, knocked in four of the Red's runs. The champion St. Louis Cardinals plumbed new dipths as they lost their fifth consi cutlve game to the Pittsburgh Pirates. 7 to 0, and fell Into a deadlock with the Giants for last place In the National league. It marked the first time in the last three seasons that the Red Birds have dropped five in a row. Steve Swetonlc allowed the champs only tnree nits, nil singles. The Giants, led by bruising Bill Terry, tore into four Phllly pitchers tor 17 hiu and a 14 to 5 triumph at Baker bowl. Terry hit two homers lor the second straight day and bat. ted In five runs.
