May 13 UP Just like their varsity brothers, Oregon State frosh whipped the Oregon frosh 7354-56?4 here yesterday In their annual track and field meet. The OSC varsity has downed Oregon im a dual meet : nd in relay competf tion this spring. Poppin, Bianchini Skip Contracts With Gems; Mike Under Suspension Two members of the Klamath Gems squad, Mike Poppin and Vlnce Bianchini, have jumped the squad, and Poppin. the starting shortstop, has been suspended Indefinitely by the club with permission of minor league baseball officials. Bianchinl's case is a little Afferent but he may also be suspended. A suspension means that Poppin will never again be allowed to play organised baseball at least until his suspension is lifted. Mike was one of the limited service players on the team, property of the Terre Haute, Ind.. Phillies and optioned to the Gems. When Mike was sent to the Genu this spring he was reluctant about report ing and didn't show up at the Lodl camp until two days before the season opened. He was put Into the lineup immediately at short, but still wasn t satisfied. His last appearance with the club was Monday night here, against Medford. He is now reported to be in San Francisco. Despite the fact that he has had previous experience, Poppin did not set the world on fire the few games he played for the Gems. He was hitting about .170 and had occasional fielding lapses. Vince Wanted To Be A Copper Vince Bianchini, on the other hand, was a top outfielder and was batting around the .400 mark. He jumped his contract to return to South San Francisco where he Intends to become a policeman. During the winter ball season Vince was after Don Mcfahane. Phil scout, to give him a try and McShane sent him to the Gems. Mean while, Bianchini had applied for a job as a policeman in South San Francisco, and while he was at Lodl he was given time off to take a couple of exams, which he passed. Manager Joe Gantenbein made arrangements for Vlnce to join the South San Francisco police department after baseball season and the boys got to calling Vlnce "the copper." But this week he decided to skip out and go back home. e e Ralph Mohler Joins Squad Disappearance of Poppin and Bianchini from the Gems roster has necessitated some changes and Gene Bonner has moved, into a regular gardening job. Ralph Mohler, catcher, who played for a Medford semi pro team last year and was sent down by the Salem Senators, has joined the squad for a look-see. and Tom Mankey may move to the outfield. Bob Wallace, youngster who has played off and on In the infield, has taken over shortstopping for a while. Gantenbein himself may start appearing in the lineups more often. e e He Oughtta Gripe, Th' Snake This is fishing season and. following as night to day. It's also tall story season. Latest is told on Bob Oliver, the real estate man, who was fishing on the lake th other day. Bob so the story goes had used about everything in his tackle box trying to get a strike and was moaning that he didn't have any minnows. Pretty soon he saw a snake of some breed in the water and watched while the reptile captured himself a minnow. Bob reached out and grabbed the snake, swiped the minnow and used It for bait.

With Phillips leaving the three-year-old American basketball league, It's a good bet that the ABL, now will be concentrated In the far western stales . . . and If the Indus trial league sets a good example in promoting purely amateur teams the AAU may decide to crack down on rumored professionalism In the ABL. . . . . There were reports last year of salaries as high as $0500 a season paid to the better "amateurs."
