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.
Striped Bass Derby Pays Off
Ernie Breithaupt out at Mac's store has a new boat and kicker as
a result of his entry In the Ooos Bay striped bass derby last summer.
His 52-pound bass took top honors and the 14-foot boat and 4.2 horse
power motor were the prizes.
Although Ernie won the prize last year, the boat and kicker were
delivered only this week. He had already built a trailer for It.

Simon-Pure Casaba League
Wanted In Denver
By HKN Fl'NK
DENVER. May 13 (dl Fans in this hotbed of AAU basketball
believe the omnnluuton of the Industrial leaiiue a circuit reaching
from Denver to Pittsburgh could very well mean the salvation of big
time amateur basketball . . . Team sponsors like General Electric,
Chevrolet, Goodyear mid Wesiliuihouse could go a long way toward
offsetting the Inroads made by the professionals the last few years , , ,
These corporations have the setups to produce high-powered teams and
their offers of good, lifelong careers will be more attractive to many
players than the prospect of Immediate gold In tile pro ranks . . , The
national champion Plillllu Oilers will be 111 the new league and their
employe team system Is expected to be used as a pattern by the other
a sponsors.
Tex Hughson
On Way Back
To Class "B"
BOSTON. May 13 Tv The tall
handsome young man who was one
of the American league's best pitch
ers less than two years ago, the fel
low who threw more pitches than
any other hurler. Is on his way back
to a class "B" minor circuit.
"Sure. It's a blow." said wire-
armed Tex Hughson after he had
been informed that the Red Sox
were sending him out.
"It's a blow to any ball player to
be sent down. But 1 11 be back.
I'll be around here again."
It Is the hope of Sox officials that
the hot sun of his native Texas
Hughson Is going to Austin of the
big State (Texas! league and the
Idea of pitching against less skill
ful opponents, where the pressure
on his arm will be easier, wtll help
the 33-year-old pitcher.
Tex explained that a circulatory
deficiency was cured by the first
of two. operations last winter. An
overdeveloped muscle Interfered
with a principal vein In his shoulder
and neck.
Tex added that In the two In
nings he pitched this year he could
throw at halt speed and three quar
ter speed.
Arizona contains eight national
forests, covering a total of 11.400.-
859 acres.
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."
