Practice rounds over the Alder wood Country club course during the past few days have disclosed the quality of the field, and observers were cautious In naming favorites The scores showed also that while golf is not essentially a young man's game, a number of youngsters who should make the veterans mind their putting are on hand.

An important aeveiop-ia ment was the win of the Klamath Falls Smokes from Medford, quail' tying Klamath Falls for the tour nament, for the reason that Klam ath Fails claims to have the best fielding team in the state.

Starting the tournament Monday PAPER TEAM WHIPS WAIT'S BY SCORE 4-3 Bill Phillips presented the Salem championship softball trophy to Clayton Foreman, Wait's manager, Just before the game last night, but the ceremony failed to Impress the Fapermakers, and they proceed ed to knock the champions over 4 to 3 in an exhibition game on Sweetland field. Crowfoot, suiting pitcher for the Papermakers, fanned six men in the three and a third innings he worked, but B. Dunn, manager of the Papermakers, was taking no chances of having Wait's get too good a look at the delivery of his windmill chucker and quickly sent Singer to the mound in the fourth when hits by Steinbeck, Bone and Beard produced one run. After one more run scored on an infield out, Singer blanked Walt's until the ninth. vera Oilmorr, recruited from the Man's Shop team, pitched steady ball for the losers, giving up 10 scattered hits, but the two Wait er rors came at the wrong times and contributed to his downfall. The Papermakers scored twice In the fourth on a walk to B. Dunn, hits by Kelly and Singer, and an error at first. The winning run came in the eighth when Kelly singled, was safe at second on a fielder's choice, and scored on a single by Garbarino, pinch hitting for Parrish. Wait's started a belated rally with two out in the ninth. Dry nan. pinch hitting for Olrod, doubled to center field and scored on GUmore's line single to right, but Adolph grounded to first unassisted to end the game.

Jell and Botir- thhe AMI A comic strip as long at he has to put up with those two kids and their doable disposition THE CAPTAIN was never more completely at sea than he is right now, on dry land, trying to figure out what Hans and Fritz'll be up to next. He only knows in a" general way that they're up to no good, as far as he's concerned. For a generation an army of readers has laughed at Rudolph Dirks's The Captain and the Kids. Join the army. Watch for this hilarious feature Beginning August 30 CapitaUournal STRUGGLE FOR FLAG BECOMES HECTIC BATTLE tBr tha Aaaoclatcd Praaa) The Bucs from Pittsburgh have suddenly become as hot as the wea ther. And. with the Cubs faltering they're Joining the Giants In mak ing a strictly two-fisted brawl of it for the National league flag. As things stood today, the Cubs were only two games in front of the galloping Giants, while the PI' rates, in fourth place and only half' a-game behind 8t. Louis, were some five games back of the New York ers. The momentary breathing spell the Cubs enjoyed after Thursday's victory didn't last nearly long enough for them, for they dropped a 6-4 decision to the Reds last night in Cincinnati. This setback, cou. pled with the Oiants' 21 hit. 13-6 win over the Phillies, and the Pi rates' 7-4 edge over the Cardinals on yesterday's bill, made it a horse from a different garage. The Pirates' particular need at the moment is pitching prowess. They've been coming back with the speed of a rubber cheek since they began their current drive 11 days ago. In that stretch, they've taken eight decisions In II games, relying strictly on a batting bom bardment that has netted 126 hits, an average of better than 11 per game. They were given their best pitch ing in a week yesterday, when Cy Blanton turned in a six-hitter, and fanned seven, in muffling the Cards, although a 15-hit attack on the part of his mates didn't exactly do him any harm. For the one day. however, the blast set off by the galloping Giants against the faltering Phillies top ped everything In sight. Bill Ter ry's Terriers turned loose their big gest offensive of the season in running up 13 runs on 21 hits, de spite the breaks that side-lined Dick Bartcll with an ailing ankle, Clyde Castleman because of the heat, and Dick Coffman with a spiked foot. Paul Derringer personally ac counted for the arc-light decision over the Cubs by driving in five runs, thereby making the Chicago lead as slim as a reducing diet. The Yankees stretched their American league margin to 12'4 games when Bill Dickey's 10-innlng homer gave them an 8-7 edge over the Athletics. The second place Tigers received a thorough going over and lost to the Browns, 11-6. The Indians topped the White Sox. 7-6. on Earl Averills homer. The Senators socked the Red Sox, 3-1. and the Bees nosed out the Brook lyn Dodgers, 6-5. bonnals are listed as probable pitchers for Sunday's eame.
