SEVEN IN ROW
(B Associated Press) .'
The New York Giants, a team
whichfiias seen its starting pitchers
finish only nine games out. 01 zu;
whose manager and leading hitter,
Bill Terry, Is on the oench because
of Injuries; which tins had nearly
all its key men hurt at one time or
another and which was down to one
able catcher for a time, is in first
place in the National league.- -
It speaks volumes ior the ability
and spirit of the Giants that they
have even remained in the race in
the face of all those Handicaps. To
make it even more surprising, eight
of those nine complete games have
been, hurled by two men, Carl Hub
bell and Hal Schumacner, and Schu
macher has finished only three
times in eight efforts
Coming back after a disastrous
western tour, during .vincn tney iosi
six out of eight games, the Giants
have rallied to win seven in a row
on their home lot from those same
western rivals and climb from fourth
place to the top. ""':
They took the lead by a direct
frontal attack on the St. Louis oas
house gang, yesterday,. trimming the
Cardinals 10 to 7 and routing their
old teammate, Roy Parmelee.,
Th'o Brooklyn Dodgers also staged
an advance in the standing perhaps
Just to show off some of the mater
ial they may trade to the wobbly
Cubs. With Van Muripo on the hill
pitching six-hit ball, the Flat bush
boys belted the 183ft champions U
to 2 and moved out of the cellar.
The Phillies replaced them after ab
sorbing a 9-3 beatine from Pitts
burgh's Pirates as Floyd Pep)
Voung smacked a pair of home runs.

' Brooks Holder's remarkable physical attraction for
pitched balls won a game for the San Francisco Seals and
figured prominently in the changed positions of four Pacific
coast league clubs today. wnen:

Ray Brooks is still stringing
along with the youngsters. And
with the exception of one or
two key positions the Hop Gold
team of the state baseball
league will be made up of high
school players or who have been
out of the prop schools but a
short time. Brooks will send
an almost entirely new aggrega
tion against Bend Sunday in
the season's opener. The only
hold over from a year ago -is
"Red" Miller, southpaw pitcher.
Teaming up with Miller, will be
Johnny Loevich, who caught for
Astoria last season and is said to
have been offered contracts for
several professional clubs. The in
field will include Gene Sptker at
first, Bob Baer at second, "Wimpy"
Qulnn at short and Gordon Wil
liamson, third. Thes: youngsters
are all high school jKiformers. Paul
Bowles, formerly of North Dakota,
where he is crediteo. with having
pitched five no-hit, np-run games,
will do the relief piu-hlng for the
brewers. "Buzz" Hagecorn and
Harry Walcott, two southpaws wlil
hold down outfield positions.
Manager Clyde Stokoe of the Bend
Elks has signed Tommy Hawkins,
catcher on this , year's University of
Portland nine. Hawkins has been
doing most of the receiving for Bill
Hatch during his two years with the
Pilots.
"Frisco" Edwards, manager of the
Salem Senators, who make their
1036 State league debut at Eugene
next Sunday, had a generous im
pulse a week ago while aome of his
aggregation was placing the pris
oners at the state penitentiary. Not
ing that the boys inside the wall
had nothing but a few old splintery
bats lined up, Edwards made a men
tal resolution to donete a few of his
own hold-over willow clubs "after
the game." Al Becktt, club presi
dent, had also taken notice of the
prisoners' lack of wurclubs. How
ever, Al acted immediately and
gathered up an armful of wood and
lugged it over to the other bench.
This occurred in the ninth innint,'
with the Senators leading 8 to 7.
Crosswhlte, chief moundsman for
the prison Inmates' ptckeu out one
of the largest of the recently ac
quired bats and immediately con
nected for a two bagger. A fellow
prisoner advanced him and ""Fris
co" signalled "Squeak" Wilson to
walk the next man and fill the bas-
Wilson then retired the side by
fanning the third man
Two prominent Salem trap
men became so enthusiastic over
the shooting at Toledo last Sun
day they barely ear aped being
forced to remain In the bay city
all night. Their enthusiasm for
trigger pulling not having been
abated by the afternoon tourna
ment, these two mm started a
session of their own by moon
light. While one threw targets
against the light of the moon
with a hand trap the other
blazed away. Their compan
ions drove away and left them
thorc. Later they repented and
the moonlight shooter were not
forced to walk home.
