arrival on the Salem Senator baseball roster, pitched nine hit
ball as the Oregonians downed the Bluejackets 6-2 in Friday

blows went for extra bases a

Ambidextrous Angel Pitcher
Foils Seattle; Bevos Lose
Cal McLish of the Los Angeles Angels has a decided advantage
over other Pacific Coast league pitchers. When batters start giving
him trouble, he just changes gloves and starts chucking with the
other arm.
Theoretically, anyway, the
Angels bought two pitchers for
the price of one; McLish the
right-hander and McLish thi
southpaw. His possibilities seem
unlimited.
The ambidextrous newcomer
made his second start Friday
night with a 7 to 4 victory over
the Seattle Rainiers. He pitched
with his right side this time,
yielding 10 hits and five walks
The Angels are still at the bot
tom of the heap, but they now
hold a 3 to 1 edge over Seattle
in the series.
Con Dempsey twirled a three-
hitter as San Francisco thumped
Portland, 4 to 1. The series now
stands at two apiece.
There were six stolen bases
in the game four for the Seals
and two for the Beavers. It was
Dempsey's eighth win of the sea
son.
San Diego made it two in i
row over the league-leading
Hollywood Stars with a 7 to 3
triumph. Lyman Linde went the
route for the Padres, giving up
eight hits. The Stars hold a 3
to 2 edge in the series.
Ken Holcombe limited Oak
land to five hits as Sacramento
won, 3 to 1. Homers by Al White
and Bill Wilson gave the Solons
their winning margin.

their downfall.
An "iron man" system was
used with every man playing
every minute of every game un
til It was necessary to carry him
off the floor. Only two re
serves were on the team, and a
rule barred any player from re
entering the game. Officiating

At the reunion were Fred
Gooch of Independence, Frank
H. Willson of Dallas, Wayne Bar
ham of Salem, Ray Boydston
Dallas. Laird V. Woods, Dal

Beach, Calif.
Barham a few years later went
from Dallas to the major leagues
as Wl pitcher. He was captain
and center of the team. Woods
was nicknamed Cat" lor nis
uncanny shooting ability and
sharp, protruding elbows; Math
eney was a rugged guard, but
was handicapped by bad eye
sight. Boydston was considered
one of the most durable of the
squad and held a forward post.
He has remained active in semi
pro baseball until the last few
years. Poling played guard one
year and moved to Portland,
where he played with the Arch
er Wiggins amateur team (re
turning once to wrest a heart
breaking win from his old pals)
The 1911-12 squad, with the
exception of Poling, returned
for the 1912-13 season and over
came all opposition to lay claim
to the state championship.
Among opposition besides that
met on the southern road trip
were the following: Salem, In
dependence, Newberg and Mon
mouth. Salem then, as now, was
always near the top of the state
list, but there was no tourney
system in those days. New
Setting forth that "it is now widely recognized that modern
coaching is a science," the University of Oregon will sponsor a
football and basketball coaching school during the period from
June 27 tc July 10. The faculty will include Wally Butts. Uni
versity of Georgia head football coach; Gordon Ridings, Columbia
university basketball coach; Jim Aiken, head Webfoot mentor and
John Warren, Oregon's well known court director. Riding, a prod
uct of Molalla high and later a basketball player under Bill Rein
hart at the University of Oregon is reported as being a keen
analyst of the court game. During his four-year tenure at Co
lumbia his teams have won 50 and lost 14 Ivy league games.
A one-hour course is offered in "problems of officiating basket
ball." From the reactions at most of the games it would seem
that the entire two weeks could be devoted to the subject.
Portland Gets Three
Multnomah stadium will be the scene of three big-time foot
ball games next fall two involving Oregon State college and
one in which the University of Oregon is a participant. The
stadium season will open August 27 with the Shrine benefit
contest between the best of the Portland high schools graduates
and a similar group from upstate. The California Bears, who

The girls who make up Jary's Softball club are paying the pen
alty every undefeated athletic aggregation encounters sooner or
later the entire opposition goes gunning for them. The squad
must seek its competition in the Portland league because no
other teams are available here. And each time they appear in
Portland they find an almost solid rooting section pulling for the
other side. Their ability as softballers will be demonstrated
during a series of exhibition games which will probably be
staged at Waters park. Those contests will involve Lind's now
engaged in a three-week tour of the south as well as the Cali
fornia Ramblers. Jary's club isn't a closed corporation and girls
wishing to try out will be made welcome. All that is needed is
to contact Syd Jary either by phone or his place of business.

Bone and a number of other Vikings.. The team was coached
by Hollis Huntington and won 20 out of 22 games during
the regular season. The University of Oregon Freshmen beat
them twice but none of the other quints they met scored more

Win String Over Silverton

No. 9, remained undefeated in district competition as the result
of a 17-3 decision over Silverton Friday evening at Waters park.
The locals, coached by Bill Ha--
nauska. will host the Woodburn
juniors Sunday afternoon at 2:30,
also at Waters park.
Bob DeGeer, Salem chucker,
limited the visitors to six hits
during his seven inning stint.
The locals clubbed Ray Lester
for a dozen blows. Lester was a
bit wild as he walked eight, hut
while doing so he fanned nine.
DeGeer issued two bases on
balls and struck out four.
The issue was settled in the
first three innings when the Sa
lem juniors checked in 15 tal
lies.
from the Brooklyn Dodgers.
The victory, coupled with
Pittsburgh's 4-2 triumph over
Brooklyn, enabled the Cardinals
to take a half-game lead over
the Dodgers. The Brooks had
held the lead for 18 consecu
tive days.
Two home runs by Klein, who
along with other Mexican league
jumpers, had his suspension
lifted by Chandler early this
month, played a very prominent
role In the Cardinal victory.
Since Klein was taken over
for the ailing Marty Marion at
shortstop, the Cards have won
seven and lost two. Besides field
ing his position in fine style,
Klein has been coming through
with some clutch hits to com
pile a creditable .281 batting
average.
Ralph Kiners' first inning
home run with two mates aboard
his 16th of the season was
enough to give the Pirates their
victory over Brooklyn. Kiner's
out-of-sight blow and his eighth
inning single were the only
hits made by Pittsburgh.
The powerful Boston Red Sox
slugged St. Louis hurlers Joe
Ostrowskl, Al Papai and Ray
Shore for 25 hits to bury the
Browns under a 21-2 score. Ted
Williams led the merciless at
tack with his 18th and 19th
homers, scored four runs and
drove in seven to boost his 82
game total to 77.
The New York Yankees in
creased their American league
lead over the runner-up Phila
delphia Athletics to five and a
half games, defeating the De
troit Tigers, 5-4, while the A'l
bowed to the Chicago White
Sox, 2-1.
Clutch hitting by Yogi Berra
and Tommy Henrlch and fine
relief pitching by Southpaw Joe
Page won for the Yankees. Berra
drove in his team's first four
runs with a double and home
run. Henrich's seventh inning
single drove in Charley Keller
from second with the tie-break
ing run.
Page relieved Allie Reynolds
in the seventh after Vic Wertz'
two-run single tied the score at
4-4, and held the Tigers score
less the rest of the way. Stubby
Overmlre, third of four De
troit pitchers, was the loser.
Randy Gumpert bested Carl
Schelb in a hurling duel to gain
his second victory over the A's.
It was Gumpert's sixth win and
Scheib's sixth loss.
Bob Feller won his third
straight and his fourth of the
season pitching the Cleveland
Indians to an 8-2 victory over
the Washington Senators. Ho
has lost six.
Hank Salter's eighth four bag
ger, his fourth since he joined
Chicago, helped the Cubs defeat
the New York Giants, 6-2.
The scheduled night game be
tween the Philadelphia Phils and
Reds in Cincinnati was post
poned by rain.

Top Trackmen to Chase AAU Crowns
Fresno, Cal., June 25 U.P
The big guns in the nation's
upper-crust track and field so
ciety take to the cinders tonight
in quest of American AAU
championships and possibly an
all-expenses paid trip to Europe.
With the "minor league" jun
ior division competition out of
the way after record smashing
performances last night, the top
names in track and field sport
will be gunning for individual
championships and probable
invitations to become members
of Jhe 55-man team that will
tour Europe this summer.
Already assured of such a
berth is smooth-striding Fred
Wilt of the New York Athletic
club. Wilt clinched his bid in
the 10,000 meter event last night
when he set a new national
AAU record in 31 minutes, 5.7
seconds, chopping 1.2 seconds off
a 13-year-old mark set by the
great Don Lash of Indiana.
Today's feature races prob
ably will come in the hurdle
events where two great stars
will be shooting for world's re
cords. One is Harrison Dlllard,
the formed Baldwin-Wallace re
cord smasher, and the other,
Craig Dixon of UCLA. Both are
capable of cracking marks in
the 100 meter highs and the 220
meter lows.
One of the outstanding perfor
mances last night was turned In
by big Jim Urquhart of the
University of Wisconsin, who
romped to easy victories in both
the 1,500 and 5,000 meter events.
He had only an hour's rest be
tween the two, but still ran com
pletely away from his junior di
vision rivals.
The junior division team title
went to the San Fransisco Olym
pic club with 12 Hi points. Los
Angeles Athletic club was sec
ond with 107 V points. Morgan
State college of Baltimore was
a weak third with 34, followed
by the CYO of Chicago with
25 14.
