AMATEURS HOLD BENEFIT FIGHT CARD AT ARMORY
THURSDAY. APRIL 13, 1933
NINE BOUTS OF
3 ROUNDS EACH
WILL BE STAGED
Some of the best amateur boxers
In the western part of the state
will be seen In action tonight at the
armory when a tournament will be
etaged for the purpose of providing
funds with which to send a Salem
team to the state wide amateur
show in Portland Tuesday and Wed

carried out as planrsd there will be
nine bouts, all ot three rounds du
ration with the exception of the
one between George Beechler and
Morris Shepard, Salem heavy
weights, which will go four.

boy, won his weight for three years
at Oregon State where he is a seni
or. Beechler took up boxing this
year and has had good success. ,
Other amateurs to be featured
will include Young Lee, a Chinese
boy attending Oregon State, John
Pcpion of Chelnawa and Henry
Neuman of Salem. Lee is said to
carry a lot of dynamite in either
fist while Pepion is one of the best
Indian scrappers at Chemawa. Tom
Louttit, Portland referee, who saw
Neuman In action predicted that
he would be the next amateur cham
pion of the coast.
The bout between Spier and Moore
should be interesting. They have
fought twice in recent weeks, each
one winning once.
Moderate prices will prevail for
the show.

Skits and
Scratches
By the way "Hoot" Gibson, "Bur
ly" Bashor and "Squeak" Wilson
have been making the dirt fly, or
perhaps roll would be a better word,
out at Winger field in preparation
for the baseball season, it would
annear the Senators will have
squared their debt for use of Uie
diamond well In advance. In past
years the club has pungled up 12
per cent of the gross as rental. The
work which has been accomplished
during the week would cost the
school board close to 150. consider
ably more than the percentage of
the gate Is likely to amount to this
season.
The entire outfield has been
scraped to a depth of two or three
Inches. A big road scraper rolled
the west sod up In windrows" then
a "frcsno" was utilized to transport
the earth to low places at the
north and south sides of the play
ing field.
It's too bad that finances won't
permit seeding down of the outfield
and infield too, for that matter, for
when the sun begins to bake the
skinned off field it will be plenty
hard and a ball which gets through
the Infield is liable to roU to the
fence. But at that the outfielders
will, not risk a leg everytime they
go after a fly ball.
Bashor declares he is going to
place some benches in the grand
stand with backs to them. More
power to him. After sitting through
many a game with knees massaging
one's chin, even the most ardent
fan will welcome a bench at least
sufficiently high for a duck to
roost on and one on which a person
can lay back and take It easy be
tween rallies.
Somebody said the school board
promised to use the money derived
from circuses in improving dinger
field. They must have misunder
stood, however, since nobody has
ever found where a nickel of the
rental fee was plowed back into
the property.
The Brooks baseball club of the
Mid-Willamette league Is now sign
ing up promising material for this
season's campaign, according to
word coming from Wlllard Ramp,
versatile manager. His roster has
not been completed and players
who believe they can make good
might give Willard a ring. However
several have already signed up.
They include Charley Bachelor,
catcher; Brick Swegle, pitcher: Earl
Ramp, outfielder; Walt Steiger,
first base; John Larson, outfielder;
Ray Segan, outfielder; Noon Segan,
pitcher; Alexander and Kalama,
outfielders, and Richard McNulty,
lnfielder. The club will hold a
practice at Brooks Sunday and ev
erybody who shows up will be given
a workout.
Tonight's amateur boxing show
promises to be an interesting ar
fair. Money raised will be used to
send a number of local slmon pures
to the Portland championships.
It's worth while and deserving of
wholehearted support.
Hopmere The work on the coun.
ty farm at Hopmere has been corn-
pleted for this season. The 80 acre.
growth of grass seed recently plant
ed is a good stand. The cultivated
ground, cleared by the needy will
forever after produce as a benefit
for the poor, and the value of the
farm acreage la greatly increase
Folks, Meet Elmer Dean
The photographer caught Elmer Dean, oldest brother of Dluy and
Paul, the well known pitchers. In an informal pose. He Is shown seated
on the front steps of the Dean family domicile In Arkansas, right after
he had signed a contract to play outfield for Houston of the Texas league.
VALLEY LEAGUE
IN THIRD WEEK
Silverton The Willamette Inter-
scholastic league will start Its third
week of play when Chemawa goes
into action against Woodburn, Mo
lalla. travels to Silverton, and West
Linn meets Lebanon at Lebanon.
According to previous showings,
Chemawa will be a heavy favorite
to trounce Woodburn as Woodburn
has failed to break Into the win
column.
Although Silverton Is undefeated,
Molalla is a slight favorite to win
due to its large win over West Linn
and because of Its experienced
pitching Etaff. Lebanon will have
a slight edge over West Linn as
West Linn has a green team this
year while Lebanon has nine let
termcn. The Chemawa Indians, who are
in a tie with Silverton for first
place, had little difficulty in win
ning from Lebanon 13 to 4. Seltice,
Indian pitcher JiQld the Berrypick
ers well in check by striking out 13
in six innings. Silverton managed
to eke out a fi to 8 win over their
old rivals, Woodburn, in an 11 inn
ing battle. The score was a dead
lock at 7-all at the end of the reg
ular 9 Innings. Silverton pushed
across a score in the 10th only to.
have Halter of Woodburn tie the
score with a home run. Schwab,
who relieved Coomler In the sev
enth, was credited with the win.
Molalla, undaunted by a few show
ers of rain, smothered the green
West Linn team 16 to 2. Leffler,
Molalla's southpaw pitcher, was the
bright spot in the game.
Standings:

Chemawa 2 0 1.000
Silverton 2 0 1.000

Parkersville Grade
Wins From Visitors
Parkersville The Parkersville
grade school baseball team played
the West Woodburn boys on a neut
ral field near here Tuesday after
noon, outscoring the visitors 20 to 8.
The game was scarcely a true test
of the merits of either team as the
grounds were slippery from heavy
rains. The game was one of the ser
ies of the Marion county grade
school league.
Sheriff Hooker to
Attend Opening
Dallas If present plans don't
miscarry Tom B. Hooker, perennial
sheriff of the county will attend his
18th opening day of baseball In the
past 21 years next Tuesday in Port
land when the Beavers begin their
home schedule. Hooker expects to
be accompanied by Friend Patterson
and Henry Savery two others who
seldom fall to be on hand when the
umpire calls "play ball."
Dachau, Germany, April 18 UP)
Guards today killed three com
munists and wounded one who were
attempting to escape from a con
centration camp.
PARRISH PLAYS
GERMS
Parrish junior high's green and
inexperienced baseball squad will
begin the 1933 season on O linger
field Friday afternoon at 3:30 o'
clock by taking on Gervais high
school. With one or two exceptions
none of the members of the Parrish
team have played much baseball
and as a result Coach Harold Hauk
Is bit dubious about the outcome.
Nick Serdotz, who has had con
siderable mound experience, should
handle his position without much
difficulty. His support may be none
too good, however. During warm
ing up practice Wednesday after
noon Serdotz indicated he had plen
ty on the ball.
Only three other players appear
to have anything like a cinch on
their jobs, They are Akers, catcher;
Etzcl, first base, and Maerz, short
stop. Second base honors will be
divided between Rnmp and Hoffert,
while Litwiller and Meyers will be
tried out at third.
In the outfield, Oglesby, Porter,
Stevens, Childs and Ferguson ap
pear to have a slight edge.
"If we can get a few runs we may
surprise some of our competitors,"
Coach Hauk stated. The team has
had little opportunity to practice
due to bad weather. Gervais is in
the same fix, however. Gervais
usually puts out good baseball
teams. Whether this year's squad
Is equal In ability to Its predeces
sors is not known.
DERN TAKES THREE
FALLS FROM KRUSE
Portland, April 13 W Ira Dern
of Salt Lake City took two falls out
of three to defeat Bob Kruse of
Oswego In "the main event of the
wrestling matches here last night.
Dern weighed 210, Kruse 211.
The Utahan won the first fall on
a side chancery in 8 minutes, but
found the count evened less than
three minutes later when Kruse ex
ecuted a double wristiock. Dern took
the deciding fall In 22 minutes with
a body press.
Joe Parelli, 158, Italy, won the
semi-windUD from Glen Stone, 165,
Olympin, Wash., taking two straight
falls. Bulldog Jackson, vn, unicago,
won the opener from Des Anderson,
154, Beattle, with one fall.
SILVERTON MEETS
MOLALLA INDIANS
Silverton The Silverton high
school baseball team will encounter
a tough obstacle when it plays the
Molalla Indians here Friday after
noon. Last year Silverton nosed out Mo
lalla to win the championship of
the Wllamette Interscholastlc lea
gue. This year Silverton is lack
ing an experienced pitching staff,
although John Coomler and Arland
Schwab have been showing up well.
Molalla has a strong pitching staff
including three of last year's pitch
ers and practically all of the other
positions are filled with the same
men of last year.
Earlier in the season Silverton
out-scored West Linn 8 to 6 while
Molalla won from the same town,
18 to 2. According to scores and
considering their experienced pitch
lng staff, Molalla will have a slight
edge In Friday's game.
Schubert who suffered an Injury
to his back In the Woodburn game,
will be back In the line-up. Coom
ler will probably start on the mound
for Silverton wnue Lcmer will
chuck for Molalla.

BIGGER GATES
FOR OPENING OF
MAJOR LEAGUES
New York, April 18 (IP) Bigger
gates and tighter pennant races
were indicated for the "new deal"
1933 major league baseball season
by yesterday's five opening games.
Rain washed out three Inaugural
ceremonies. They are scheduled for
today. An average increase of 600
persons a game over the 1932 open
ing was shown by United Press com
pilations. Average attendance was
20,000 fans.
A better balance among teams
was Indicated by the average dif
ference of only 2 4-5 runs between
victors and vanquished, whereas Inst
year the opening day average was
5 5-6 runs.
The attendance average was ex
pected to be boosted considerably
today as delayed teams swung into
action In three good baseball cities.
Even President Franklin D. Roos
evelt shared the general enthusiasm
and optimism after yesterday's in
augural. He flipped out the first ball
at Washington, and his team, the
Senators won their first opening
game in many seasons, defeating
their worst rivals, the Philadelphia
Athletics, 4 to 1.
It was an excellent game that the
president, Vice-president Garner
and other notables among 25,000
fans witnessed a game filled with
snappy fielding and featured by sev
eral double plays. Joe Cronln made
a brilliant debut as the youngest
manager in the majors. He banged
out three singles In four times up.
Alvln Crowder and Alphone Thom
as yielded six hits to the A's while
Tony Freltas and Gowell Claset al
lowed nine to the Senators.
With no exception, generally fa
vored teams won. The exception was
the Cleveland Indians, who downed
Detroit's youthful fast-stepping Ti
gers, 4 to 1 In 13 Innings.
Al Simmons, central figure of the
off-season's most discussed deal,
blasted out the season's first home
run, giving his new team, the Chi
cago White Sox their first tally as
they beat the St. Louis Browns, 4
to 2. Fewer than 6000 fans, the
smallest crowd of the day, saw the
game. Beer was sold In the park.
In the National league, the Chi
cago Cubs opened the defense of
their pennant successfully by blank
ing the St. Louis Cardinals, 3 to 0,
before 25,000. Lonnle Warneke, lead,
lng hurler of the National circuit
last year, turned In the season's first
shutout, allowing only four hits,
while Dizzy Dean and Tex Carleton
were found for 11. The Cubs tallied
their three runs in the second Inn
ing. The Pittsburgh Pirates, generally
considered logical successors to the
Cubs as leaders In the National,
trounced tire Cincinnati Reds, 4 to 1
before 25,000 fans.
