BY FRED ZIMMERMAN.
A Fine Selection
Having known "Buck" Smith
hasten to congratulate Prexy G.
board for their discernment in adding "Buck" to the coaching
staff at Willamette. However, we must admit that not until he
made application for the position did we know that he had been
christened "Julian." To John
election of "Buck" is particularly pleasing. The two men were
among those who played under the new assistant coach during
the war in Persia. "Buck" was largely instrumental in their
enrollment at Willamette. We feel sure he. and Coach Stack
house will hit off well.
Stackhouse's Plans
The new head man will not assign one of his subordinates
to the task of building a freshman squad but will employ
' all of them In whipping the varsity into shape. However,
. thl does not mean that there will be no second string.
For Stackhouse plans to assign certain players on a week
to week basis for competition on a level below his top
flight gridders. In this way he expects to utilize the
knowledge of his associates to better advantage. Working
with him will be Johnny Lewis, "Buck" Smith and Am
brose Dogeagle. The new head coach expects to reach
Salem the first of August and will begin the task of round
ing up his players.
Brillheart Irked
Jim Brillheart, Spokane Indian manager, would like to see
the Salem franchise in the Western International league moved
elsewhere. "We never have drawn a decent check out here,"
remarked Brillheart. "The largest crowd we have played be
fore in Waters park has not exceeded. 2000." Certainly the cut
the Indians got out of the recent series wouldn't provide cakes
and coffee for his crew of hungry athletes. We venture, how
ever, that attendance at Waters park has been fairly close to
that in Bremerton or Tacoma. Brillheart would like to see the
franchise transferred to a Washington community or perhaps
Lewiston, Idaho. Such a move would trim the cost of trans
portation and cut down the time
from park to park on a bus. wnetner it wouia Dnng greater
financial returns could not be determined until the experiment
was tried.
So Sorry!
Many were the expressions of regret heard in downtown
second guess circles following Ray McNulty's great exhi
bition of pitching against the Yakima Bears. "Sorry I
wasn't there," was the most popular phrase. Another year
there should be a greater coordination of activities. The
Western International league schedule is set several weeks
In advance of the playing season and there Is little excuse
for programming an event like the Cherryland Festival
In conflict with baseball. The Senators, as a rule, are away
from home every other week, thus giving other organiia
tions ample opportunity to dovetail their activities. Dupli
cation of efforts hurts all concerned.
Umpires Take It
Physically and verbally the men in blue take a beating be
hind the plate. They get little or no sympathy from the spec
tators and while the players may go round and round with the
umps on occasion, there really is a bond between them. Um
pire Young got a vicious crack under his mask the other night
that almost incapacitated him. He really was hurt. He eventu
ally had to retire to the Salem dugout for first aid but came back
to finish the game even though his right arm was virtually use
less. Some umpires are more proficient than others, but we
have yet to hear of one who was dishonest.

Senators
Edge on
Those Yakima Bears who
maintained a commanding lead in western International circles
left Waters park Friday night after gaining no better than an
even break with the Salem Senators. With both sides producing
pitching of the highest quality, run making correspondingly
slumped
Jim Olsen pitched four hit
ball for the Solons in the first
game of the twin bill, but Bill
Sweiger, ex-Portland chucker.
fashioned a two hitter, a com
bination that gave the Bears a
2 to 0 shutout. The loss bal
anced Olsen's account with '
wins and as many losses.
Bus Sporer wrote into the re
cord books his sixth victory of
the season as against five losses
when he pitched the Solons to a
5 to 2 win. Big Jim had a shut
out until the ninth when the
Bears pounced upon him for four
of the eight hits of the contest.
A base on balls to Edo Vanni,
the only one Olsen gave up dur
ing his seven inning asignment,
a passed ball and Al Jacinto's
single gave the Bears a run in
the first frame. They didn't cross
the plate again until the seventh
when Gene Thompson singled
was safe at second on Wayne
Peterson's muff of a possible
double play ball and scored on
Snag Moore s base blow.
The Senators had virtually no
scoring opportunities as Sweiger
faced but 23 men. Olsen lined
a double to center field in the
sixth after one was out but he
advanced no farther as the next
two men were easy outs.
The second contest went four
and half scoreless innings be
fore the Solons broke through
with two tallies in the fifth.
Bob Drilling walked Krug and
Wasley after Cherry had struck
out. Hedington's single and an
infield out scored both. Singles
by Cherry and Krug, an error
and Hedington's line double to
right field added a brace of runs
in the seventh while base hits
by Wayne and Bud Peterson and
fielders choice on Cherry's
grounder brought in a fifth
score in the eighth.
Sporer faced but 28 men
through eight innings as he gave
an excellent exhibition of con
trol and a fine mixture of
pitches. Stout fielding contri
buted materially to his shutout
through the eighth. With a 3 and
2 count on Al Jacinto, the Bears
second sacked crashed single
to center field to open the ninth.
Babe Gammmo followed with a
base blow to right. With men
on first and second Gene Thomp
son flew out to Mel Wasley. Eno
Tornay's infield single filled the
bases but the situation was re
lieved somewhat when Wasley
galloped far and fast to pull
down Ted , Briskey's . high foul
to left. Ted Jennings drew three
straight pitches before Sporor
got over a strike. Jennings then
punched a line double between
Cherry and Zurcher, scoring Ja
cinto and Gammino. Gaviglio
grounded out to end the threat
The series with the Bears will
include a single game Saturday
night at 8 and doubleheaders at
6 o clock Sunday and Monday.

Oaks Trim Stars, Bevos
Shut Out Sacramento, 4-0
San Francisco, July 2 OAR)
seldom had the chance to see
a bunch of bush leaguers this season, but Oakland did last night
Trailing 3-2 in the sixth In
ning at Gilmore field, the Acorns
got eight runs on two hits, five
walks, a hit batter and error
all this carnage came after two
were out.
The pay-off blow during the
big inning was Centerfielder
Earl Rapp's grand slam home
run first of the season. Twinks
Starter Pinky - Woods, and Re
lief Ray Olson took early show
ers during the outburst. Ed Oli
ver came in to get the third out.
The Oaks took the Stars 12-6.
In the league's other games:
San Diego beat Seattle 5-2, San
Francisco nosed out Los Angel
es, 4-3, and Portland shut-out
Sacramento 4-0,
Second place Seattle ran into
Padre Reliefer Jack Mooty on a
hot night, and. the Rainiers miss
ed a golden opportunity to gain
ground on the Twinks,
Mooty relieved Starter Red
Adams who went out with a sore
arm in the fourth and earned his
second win against five losses.
Mooty weathered a shaky early
start in the fourth as the Rain
iers got their two runs, but from
then on he was invincible.
Beaver Herb Saltzman had
things under perfect control as
he set the Sacramento Solons
down with five hits and nary a
run. Portland scored single tal
lies in the first and fourth and
added two insurance runs in the
eighth. Rookie Luis Marquez
hit a Beaver home run in the
eighth.

Cardinals Slump as 'Cat'
Fails Under Arcs Again
(By the Associated Press)
What happened to Harry Brecheen's after dark magic?
The wiry little St. Louis Cardinal southpaw was poison at night
last season. Under the lights he
fine 20-7 season.
After winning three night starts early this season, he lost his
touch.
The Cat has failed to
finish his last four owl starts.
His latest disappointment really
hurt.
With a chance to tie the
Brooklyn Dodgers for the Na
tional league lead by whipping
Cincinnati last night, the Red
Birds flopped, 10 to 2. Brecheen
started, but faded for a pinch-
hitter in the fourth. St. Louis
trailed 3-0 and the lowly Reds
had four hits off the Cat who
walked five. Normally he passes
only one or two in a nine-inning
job.
The pasting by Cincinnati,
which has been staggering to
ward the cellar, was the third
Card loss in their last five
games against' second division
opposition.
Brooklyn stubbed its toe on
New York's Dave Koslo in an
afternoon setback. 4-1, that gave
St. Louis a chance to close the
naD. Don Newcombe was un
able to hold an early 1-0 lead
and finally was knocked out for
the first time in a month while
the giants were enroute to s
three-run rally in the eighth
Vern Bickford gave the Bos
ton Braves control of third place
as he hit the 10-win mark with
a 12-inning decision over the
Phillies, 2-1. The young right
hander singled to start the 12th,
rode to third on Eddie Stanky's
single and scored on Al Dark's
game-winning single.
Bob Muncrief, recently sold
by Pittsburgh to Chicago for the
waiver price, pitched the Cubs
to a 6-5 edge over the pirates
in a relief role. Muncrief came
on after Dutch Leonard was
knocked out in the fourth.
Charley Keller, another one
of Casey Stengel's cripples, took
his turn at giving the New York
Yankees a lift. He hit a pinch
triple with two men on to climax
a four-run rally in the ninth
inning. The Yanks came from
way back to nip Washington, 5
4, with Joe DiMaggio confining
his activties to one single and a
walk in four trips.
Eddie Joost, the Philadelphia
A's sparkplug, had a great night,
driving in five runs with three
hits, including his 17th homer,
in a 11-5 romp over Boston, ine
victory left the A's five and a
half games back of the leading
Yanks.
Cleveland took, over third
place by dumping the St. Louis
Browns, 3-1, on Al Benton's six
hitter, while Detroit was being
blanked by Chicago's Bill
Wright, 4-0.
In 1900, only 4.1 per cent of
the people in the United States
were 65 years old or older.
