Scratches

Capital Journal Sports Writer
To members of the No Name, WVI,
Oreater Willamette and similar lea
gues we would suggest they change
their Ideas concerning Albany high
whenever the subject of athletic
competition Is broached. The Hub
City has (or a number of years been
considered somewhat In the light
ol a soft touch when basketball,
gridiron activities and the like were
considered. But under the regime
of Adams and 8wanaon, (Dwlght
and Tommy to you), we believe the
Albany athletes will no longer sub
mit to substituting for doormats for
the opposition. Both have
confidence and ability; know
how to handle young men and get
the most out or them. So the Infu
sion of new blood In the coaching
staff of the Linn county metropolis
should be a big help to other mem
bers of the various leagues the
stronger the competition the better
the games.
Somewhere along the line of
negotiations between the Al
bany school board and the
coaches, a bit of misinformation
waa loosed. It has to do with
"four years Coach Dwlght Ad
ams quarterbacked for Willam
ette's football tram." We can
Imagine the laugh Dwlght got
out of that one. He did a good
Job of coaching football at Dal
las, but he'll probably never for
get the experience he enjoyed
(?) when he went with Coach
"Spec'' Keene and his Bearcats
to Seattle where they engaged
the University of Washington
Huskies. As we recall, Dwlght
was playing safety on that oc
casion, at any rate he was step
ping high, wide and handsome
down the well known gridiron
when something happened That
something was a huge Wash
ington tackier who hit Mr. Ad
ams with the Impact of a safe
dropped off a 10-story bonding.
Right there Dwlght received his
A.B Ph.D. and WPA In football.
If he can teach his Albany prot
eges to hit as hard aa he got
socked on the Huskies' battle
ground, there will be nothing to
It. The championship Is his.
He probably needs a bit more sea
soning, but It looks like Don Cutler
of Parrlsh Junior high Is the an
swer to several Softball managers'
prayers for a championship pitcher.
He has control, speed and ability to
get a hook on the big ball which Is
called sort by courtesy but which In
actuality Is hard to take on the end
of a digit. Don tosses a ball which
raises, one which all batters agree
is the hardest to do anything with.
He's still competing In the Intra
mural league so It wont do any
good for scouts of the downtown lea
cue to approach bun with a con
tract. This and thati Jim Watts,
Rseburg high school coach,
would like to see the broad Jump
added to the ever-growing Hat
f relays. The reason? Jim has

Kisselburgh Cutting

Two and a half very bad
ledger yet the Portland coast league ball club already has hit
nearly half as many home runs as all last season. The Beaver
Ducks nave knocked out is round-
trippers aa against 55 In IMS.
These figures corroborate tlx view
of Portland followers wblco needf
no corroboration for that matter-
that the Beavers would be in the
first division and might crowd the
leaders If they had a pitching staff
commensurate v-lth their sluggers.

This major league baseball season
Is scarcely half week old and al
ready has given more tight fits than
a shoe store.
The relentless rainmaker cut yes
terday's card to five games, but
three of these were 3-0 shutouts
another was a 14 Inning 8-7 grind
and the fifth was a 6-3 affair. In
the 10 games so far only two have
finished with a margin of more
than two runs separating the op,
posing dubs.
The prize performance yesterday
was a three hit stint by Louis WU'
liara Fette, a durable 33-year-old
right-hander who bears much of
the Boston Bees' hopes on his
chunky frame. Fette held Phlla
delphla's Impotent Phillies to three
singles to acquire one of the sea
son's first shutouts, 3-0.
Bob (Lefty) Orove of the Boston
Red Sox held the New York Van
kees to seven hits to emphasize
that, at 39, and starting his ISth
term under the big top, he still
rates with the best.
But like a lot of other good pitch
lng Jobs wrecked by the Yankee
powerhouse, Grove's blew up In his
face when big Bill Dickey got the
world's champions first home run
of the year and Jake Powell tripled
home another score to stop the
Sox, 3-0.

The T to 0 win which the "Reds

represented the respective strength
of two divisions of Coach Harold
Hauk's Salem high grid prospects
for next fall as they wound up
spring practice on Ollnger field yes
terday afternoon In a 10-mlnute
quarter regulation contest. The
"Reds" with Vera Wadsworth at
the helm, held a slight edge In pow
er throughout the hot afternoon but
had It not been for a bad pass on
the part of Bill Thompson. "Black"
center, the game would probably
have ended in a scoreless tie. The
fluke came late In the contest and
six points were credited to the
"Reds" when Pete Tow, an end,
fell on the loose oval. A pass from
Rush to Tada was good for the ex
tra point.
Offensive play was somewhat rag
ged because several of the boys,
playing strange positions, were not
familiar with their assignments.
Defensive line play was fairly strong
although the forwards were unable
to open holes consistently for the
backs. For the "Reds," Ed Yada,
playing his first game in the back
field, got away on two or three oc
casions for fairly good gains around
the end. while Rush, a fullback,
looked like he might develop into
a kicker.
