The Capital Journal, Salem Oreojrjn Saturday; October 21, 1939 Sophomore Reds Defeat Leslie Juniors by 14-13 Score SIX Skits and Bj Fred Zimmerman Capita) Journal Sports Writer Biddy Bishop has a sort of per petual motion Idea mapped out for the purpose of keeping the grass green on the George Waters base ball park on South 25th street this next summer. He will excavate for a pond Just over the north boun dary fence and will trnp surplus water during the winter months. When the grass needs a drink next summer he will pump the moisture from the pond onto the diamond. A good idea, but how about the mosquitoes, Biddy? Grading of the playing field has constituted the first part of park activity. A pow er grader was used to peel off the top surface then a crew of men went to work raking up the rocks. While the soil Is quite rocky, it Is believed turf will keep them from working through. The unseeded surfaces may need a cover of rock less topsoil before it is found sat isfactory. Nrt doubt Spec Keenr will frown at the suggestion, but to yours truly U would seem the Bearratn should have little dif ficulty with their competition from here on out Willi the ex re pi inn of Sa n Jose State. That will be a (oughie. Other I h a n pr rb a ps Pacific, we f a H lo see where any of the North west conference clubs can do much about Spec's squad this year. The C PS loggers, Wil lamette's next opposition at Tacoina next Friday night, looked pretty fair In beating Whitman early this month, but be In g held t a scorel ess tl o Thursday night by Whitworth doesn't Indicate, the Loggers nre of championship material. There Ik the possibility the Hrarrats may get badly shak en lip against San Jose to tnich Rn extent that they will not be at full strength for their re maining conference games. Bar ring that possibility they should have little difficulty with Paci fic, Idaho or Whitman. Tf yott haven't done It already, better draw a ring around Nov. 3 on your calendar. That date marks the appearance of one of the best ball clubs to visit Salem since the days when Oregon and Oregon Slate came over to piny with the Bearcats on Swoetlanrt field. We are not so sure that the WebfooUi or Beavers of those days were ns strong an the Spartans from Sun Jose. Doug De- Groot nnd Pop Warner, whose ro-coaching operations at San Jose have been responsible for five Ktmlght wins, up to last night, will field a team ngainst Willamette the night of November 3 which boast line averaging 201 pounds. There will be two senior fullbacks to nlternale against the Bearcats: Lcroy Zimmerman, lanky 195-pound triple threatcr and Carleton Pore Koy. fast stepping 17fi-pounder. Zimmerman Is one of the best pas aers on the coast. Both men are Rood minners and kickrrs. Tfie right halfbacks. Morris Manoogian. 179 pounds, and Herman Zetter quist. 175 pounds, nro likewise both senior veterans. Howard Costello. 1(15 pound Junior, and Aubrey Minter, also 165 pounds and a negro sopho more, make up the balance of the starting backficld. Costello Is the stocky, hard -running type, while Minter Is an elusive speedster. One or the best amortanentti of plays ever pirt on by any team. regnnltcM of the ie of the mipixirtlng ItiNtlttition, will doubtless ha jsprend out for the benefit or Willamette valley fans.

Straw, Upjohn Tally Late for Soufhsidcrs And what a game that was! Trailing by 14 lo 0 well into the fourth period and no one giving them the ghost of a chance, the Les lie junior high griddcrs spurted in the dying minutes of their intra mural league game late Friday to score two touchdowns and miss a tie with the Soph Itcds by the mar gin of failure to convert The final score of 14-13 Is a fair indication of the strength of the two clubs. Time outs and innumerable substitutions put a brake on the progress of the game and the final moments were played under the light of a half moon. A pass interception by Straw on the Leslie 15 and a subsequent 85 yard run behind quickly formed In terference gave the southsiders their first touchdown after five minutes of the final period had passed. They failed to buck the line for the extra point. Willi darkness settling over the field and wilh Leslie backed up well in their own territory, Applegate uncorked a 70-yard kick which stop ped five yards short of the end zone. Hoffcrt attempted to kick out but Dunham, Leslie left guard, got In the way of the ball and it bounced back Into the end zone where tip- John nestled on It for a touchdown. Applognte kicked Ihe extra point. The Williams to Hoffert and Wil liams to Buren combinations as worked out by Coach George Abbott of the Reds, proved Leslie's down fall. A listless first period found no scoring but early In the second frame Hoffert Intercepted a pass and galloped lo the Leslie 46. On the next play Williams lolled a short puss to Hoffcrt who went the rest of the distance. They added the extra point by a mass charge through the center. The Red's second touch down came early m the second half witli Hofrert's quick kick providing the set-up. Leslie got the ball on their 17 but Immediately fumbled. The Reds recovered and Williams passed to Buren in the end zone. Hoffert kicked goal. The final moments of the game were played In virtual darkness. Due to the confusion the players thought the game had ended before time was really up. Some of the Reds had climbed Into their bus only to find that there was a second and a half remaining by the timer's watch. They climbed out and ran off another play.

Salem will entertain Oregon City Friday night on Sweetland field. Salem reached pay dirt early last night when Andrews, hard driving fullback, passed lo Traglio who ran for the first touchdown. The pass and the run was good for SO yards, Don Waller scored the second touch down when he climaxed a 70 yard sustained drive In the second quar ter by going the final eight. The Vikings failed to convert nnd when Witchard, Tillttmook halfback, pass ed to Christensen, an end, for f touchdown, the Cheescmakcrs got back Into the ball game Just before the half. Salem had failed to con vert following each touchdown, so the score at the intermission was Salem 12. Tillamook 6. Don Waller made matters con siderably brighter for the Vikings at the outset of the third period when he ran hB yards to score. Andrews hit the line for the extra point. Since Tillamook has not won a ball game this season, Salem can do little crowing over their success.

The Lions took advantage of the break and Hennin gan rambled around his right end for another score and booted the ball between the uprights for the conversion. Dallas returned to the attack and their aerial sallies brought returns one minute from the half when Kroeker swept around the left end from the 10-yard mark to score.

Oct. 1 OT On a crisp autumn afternoon In old Chicago 32 years ago, the back ground for this football story was laid. It was November of 1907. Glenn Scobey (Pop) Warner's Carlisle Indians trampled over Amos Alonzo Stagg's University of Chicago Maroons, 18 to 4. Thirty-two years later under the flood lights of a tiny far western stadium, the country's two oldest coaches, both In point of service and Stagg in actual years, helped write the second chapter of the most famous individual gridiron rivalry in the history of the sport. Last night on one side of Baxter stadium, stronghold of little Col lego of the Pacific paced 77-year- old Stagg. Across the field sat. 68-year-old Warner, serving as ad visory coach of San Jose State col' lege. Headlines of today told the same story as they did more than three decades ago. Warner wing-backs, razzle-dazzle and, power outscored the type of football taught by" the dean of men tors Stagg. The score was 13 to 3 Indians Smother Independence High Chcmawa The Chemawa high school Braves continued their win ning ways Friday afternoon as they downed Independence high 25 to 0 on the local gridiron. Coach Gastlneau's up and coming warriors scored on the first play of the game as Danzuka flipped a pass to Williams that was good for 60 yards and a touchdown. The Indians came back, four minutes later, with another pass, Danzuka to Williams, for another score. Danzuka carried the ball over for the extra point. Chemawa scored again Just before the half was over as VanPelt inter cepted a pass on his own 48 and went over unmolested 'with plenty of interference ahead of him. The visitors came back strong in the second half to pile up a lot of yardage but did most of tlieir ground gaining in their own terri tory, never getting Inside of the Chemawa 35 yard line. They made a total of 11 first downs to seven for Chemawa, but Chemawa gained 279 yards to 176 for Independence. The Indians, content with their lead, came to life in the final quar ter with a drive that started on their own 18 and scored 6 plays later as Pablo tore through center to pay dirt. Chemawa plays Reed college on the local field next Friday after noon. Mam- of the old-timers, now at Chemawa. will see action in this game.

Albany Cracks Bend 6 to 0 Albany Albany high school's Bulldogs pulled a 0 to 0 tie out of the fire in the last two minutes of the football game here last night against the Bend Lava Bears and crashed over for a touchdown when Pete Flsk hurled a high looping 20 yard pass from Bend's 30-yard mar ker to Don Wilson, right halfback who dashed over the remaining ten for a touchdown. Albany failed to convert the extra point on a pass. Bend's mammoth line outweighed the Albany small but game forward wall and time after time was held for downs. Bend failed to penetrate past the Albany 25-yard marker during the entire game, while the Albany team plunged deep into Bend's territory, almost reaching pay dirt twice. Miller, 175 pound left end. starred In the line while Wilson and Flsk in the backficld played bang-up ball for Albany. Flsk averaged ro yards on his punting. While the game has no bear ing In Uie No-Name league In which Albany is as yet undefeated.
