Oregon Tech Meets
Lassen Junior College
Orecon Tech travels to Susan-
vllle this weekend (or a three
Rnme baseball series, with Laseii
Junior College, but U the results
are the same as lasts week's ser
ies at RecreaUon Field. It will
probably resemble spring football
practice.
In last Saturday's games, the
Mile High Campus nine turned on
the steam and rolled over hap
less Lassen 36-1 and 36-5. Ill Uie
Sunday afternoon contest Lassen
managed to score nine runs, but
Tech countered with 34 of their
own.
These were the first games of
the season for Lassen, and with
the past week s practice sessions,
it is expected that they will be
better ballclub than the Owls faced
last week.
Art Klrland's ballclub will prob
ably be about the same that has
started the last lew games for the
local school.
Dick Joslyn will get the catch
ing assignment for one or two of
the sanies, and Art Weathouse
hnnlrt tfA snml action durlnK this
.erl.s behind the Plate In the oth-
er contest.
Pitching will probably be fairly
well divided, with Tech's two left
handers, Arvey Nelson and Ron
Wright slated to see some action
as will Big Kay uarrow ana uten
Marcum. Marcum, Wright and
Nelson all register wins over the
Lassen ballclub in last week's
g?mes.
The infield will be composed of
Don Vest or Marcum at first base,
and Lee Oliver or Dave Savage
holding down the hot corner at
third base. The double play com
bination will be made up ol Larry
Oatney at second base and Larry
Jeter covering the shortstop posi
tion. The Owl's outfield will probably
be comprised of Warren Osborne
in left, Odie Canada in center, and
Lew Emerson In right. These three
along with Joslyn and Oatney have
been pounding out plenty of base
hit for the Tech ballclub and will
be counted on tomorrow and Sun
day for more safeties.
Besides these probable starters.
Klrkland will probably use plenty
of reserves as he did against Las
sen in the Sunday game, when 16
players saw action.
Next Tuesday the Owls return
home to meet the tough Southern
Oregon College Red Raiders In an
afternoon doubleheader at Recrea
tion Field.

NEW YORK i Charlie Grimm,
greeting Eastern clubs on their
tlr.il vlst of Uie season to Mil
waukee. Is warning them that thoy
can expect to run Into a load of
trouble and ntluht even uet sralnttd
j txrforo they llnlsh their expedition
through the western hall of the
National League. He doesn't nec
essarily mean his own Braves will
do it cither.
"The Chicago Cubs. Clhcinna'.l
Reds and SI. Louis Cardinals all
are Unproved plenty." Charlie
says. "II they're a sample, we've
got a real eight-team league. I'd
say the Cubs are the most Im
proved, especially in their Infield.
Any time they get pitching they'll
be tough.
"Wally Post has made a big Im
provement in Cincinnati's outfield
I and they've got a line Infield com-
j blnatlon. Tom
Alston looks
he'll do around
to me 1 1 k e
first base. I can't see any of those
three clubs gelling run away from
cany, u at all."
The Sporting News predicts that
a big league franchise will be shift
ed to Dallas within a few years
and seems to feel that Los Angeles
and San Francisco have lost out.
Travel to Dallas. It points out,
would present no great problem.
The Texas metropolis boasted a
population of 434.403 in the 1950
census and Is believed to be al or
over the halt-million mark now.
Milwaukee, by comparison, had a
hrnd count of 637.39 In 1950, and
the Braves expect lo draw two
million al the gate this season.
There is no hint of the club who
might open up the Southwest to
big league ball, but men in the
business regard the Philadelphia
Athletics as hot prospects unless
irieir attendance improves In a
hurry. Dick Burnett, the oil tycoon
owner of the- Dallas franchise In
the Texas League. Is said to have
the money which would be needed
to swing such a deal.
