Wednesday, September 21, 1938 The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Hires Vikings Ready for Indians Up Hauk Easing ; Contest Thursday Eve A let of work In. blocking, kick ing and ptuing, plui some dead aarnaat scrimmage, hai brought about considerable Improvement In Coach Harold Haul's Viking foot ball club. Consequently the red and blacks are expected to give the Chemawa Indians plenty of exercise on Bwoetland field Thursday night. The game, slated to start at' g o' clock, will be the first of the sea son for this vicinity. No one con nected with Salem high la optimis es enough to believe that anything like the to 0 score of a year ago will be repeated Thursday night. In fact, a lot of Viking fans would be satisfied with a one-touchdown margin of victory. Coach Hauk sent his club through a brisk scrimmage Tuesday after noon but will ease up until game time. The usual run of bruises, cuts and strawberries have shown up, but so far no serious Injury has marred the Viking training period. Pearmlne, end, is nursing a Charley horse which may keep him on the sidelines, while Nelson has a leg In Jury. The latter, however, will get Into the first game.

Of this crew Williams and Nelson are the only regulars from last season. Nelson and Andrews will divide the kicking honors. The latter did a good Job of booting for Leslie last season. Others likely to, see competition against the Indians are Wadsworth and DeLapp, guards; Paulson and Butte, tackles: Tragllo and Pear mine, ends; Straw, Sullivan and Evans, backs. Harold Biles, getting his first experience at the game, Is an excellent tackle prospect, while Bill Bhlnn, a track man, Is an ex tremely aggressive back.

"The car broke down Just as I entered the mile. "I was then going well over 360 miles per hour. It dragged all the way through but I kept her under throttle.

Leslie Squad Builds Anew Last season Coach Lloyd Oirod built up ont of the best football team to represent Leslie junior high In many years and when the equipment was placed In lti proper place along early In November, he looked ahead to considerable suc cess this season. But a lot has happened since then. For one thing virtually all of the boys who had competed last year and who were still eligible for junior high foot ball, have failed to show up. Bar ton, an excellent tackle prospect, has joined a CCC camp; Anderson, a guard, and Larkin, halfback, have moved to other communities, while Boatright has entered another school. AH of this deflection leaves but two boys who have had experi ence, Holt, a fullback, and Hath away, center. About 40 boys have been working out since late last spring, with fundamentals being stressed. No effort has been made to learn plays or scrimmage. Coach CM rod hopes to Interest a group of sev enth and eighth graders in the game, not so much for this season's competition but for future efforts. Leslie's field, baked by the sum mer's sun, was extremely hard to start the season. Efforts to soften It up a bit through the application of water have proved none too suc cessful since mud puddles have re sulted. The field has a clay top which prevents water seeping in. Leslie will take part in the Salem public school Intramural program which includes Parrish and two sophomore clubs.

Dado of Manila Beats McCusker Stockton, Calif., Sept 31 (TV Little Dado of Manila, California's bantamweight tltleholder, used an effective left hand to win an easy 10-round decision from Jimmy Mc Cusker of Boceman, Mont., last night. McCusker, Montana state cham pion, won the 6th, 8th and 10th rounds, but the points piled up by Dado with the aid of his disturbing left, were too much to overcome. Dado weighed 114; McCusker, 116.

Auoclated Pt.m) Even the Yankees' record losing streak can't stir up much Interest since the New Yorkers have clinch ed the pennant The fans wont be excited about the national league race until the teams are able to come out from under their um brellas and play a few games. But in the meantime the Boston Red Sox and Cleveland Indians are stir ring up quite a lively pair of pri vate battles. Second place in the American lea gue Is their main stake and their leading representatives at the home plate, Jimmy Foxx and Earl Aver- ill, are quite in the thick of the; fight for the batting crown. The Red Sox, returning to ac tion yesterday after having had two straight doubleheaders washed out, regained a little lost ground by wal loping the St. Louis Browns in both ends of a bargain bill, 12-8 and 7-2. The Indians took a single game from Washington, 9-1. The only other game played saw the Yankeea establish a new re- cord for Joe McCarthy's manaff-1 erial regime by losing their fifth straight game, a 5-4 decision to the Chicago White Sox. It was the first : time since McCarthy took charge j In 1931 they had dropped so many In a row. The entire national league pro gram again was rained out along with the Athletics-Detroit game In the American. It didn't make much difference In the senior cir cuit race this time, for the teams still can play the games off In dou bleheaders If the rain stops today.
