DAXZ.T CAPITAL TOtnUAX, 'MAI&tit, OBBOOIT, TfiTTBSDAT, JOTTE 12, 1913. SPORTS HARDFOUGHT GAME IS McMinville Expected to Pull Off Some thing How in Order to Give Sa lem Senators Hoolc The second game of a three game series for the semi-professional cham , pionship of the Willamette Valley will be played Sunday between McMin ville and promises to be one of the most exciting games pulled off in this neck of the woods for long time. Two weeks ago the past Sunday the same teams met at Salem in one of the most exciting games ever pulled off on the home grounds. This game was a hard fought game in all but one inning when the McMinnville team blew up and allowed the senators to pile up six runs. The game was a scrappy affair from start to finish and good many spectators have said since that they would give a dollar to Bee the same thing over again. The coming game will without doubt eclipse the first game to such an ex tent that the first will be entirely for gotten after it is over.. The Tigers have the reputation of sparing no ex pense when it comes down to getting even and it is expected that they will have about half of President Mc Credie's pay roll lined up against Sa lem for this game. The noted Higgin bottom, of the Beavers, pitched one no Tun, no hit game for them this season, and was to have pitched the coming game against Salem had he not been . reinstated, but in case Manager Me Oredie does not see fit to let him pitch this game they will have another just us good, also enough behind him to cinch the game. Salem will probably have something to say about cinching the game. They will have one of the strongest teams that ever represented the capitol city, , practically the same team that played 'against Albany June S, and pulled off some wonderful stunts that kept the Tianl hitting Athletics from crossing the plate but once. It is the intention of the Salem Boosters to male this the largest ex cursion ever pulled over the P. E. & E. B. R. American League. II. II. E.

HENRY PECK MMMMMMMMM JOLTS The niihea Club defeated Willamette 4 2 in a practice game played on the varsity diamond last evening. A suggestion to stop all boxing ex hibitions in New York state during the months of June, July and August was received favorably by the New York State Athletic Commission. Members of the commission pointed out that box ing was the only standard sport that was followed the year around. They believed that the sport would benefit by having its special season, like base ball, football and hockey. Ad. Wolgast, former lightweight champion, left Los Angeles Tuesday for San Francisco. Wolgast has decided to abide by the decision of his physician, and remain out of the ring for at least six months. He will go immediately to his ranch near Medford, Ore., where he will remain for some time. After outpointing Phil Brock, of Cleveland, throughout, Johnny Grif fith, of Akron, Tuesday night knocked him out in the ninth round of their bout hore. Griffith graduated fro the featherweight class. Charley White and Jack Britton signed articles to fight 20 rounds at New Orleans on July 4. They will weigh in at 133 pounds thre eh ours be fore the fight. National League. W. L. Pet.

By Hal Sheridan. j (Written for the United Press.) 1 New York, June 12. A terrible ca tastrophe is upon us. It happens every year, being more regular than the visit of the seven-year locusts, but in view of certain upheavals during the past year it brings a new sting. With voices f-oni th'e tidelines nrgieg that the secret be spilled, we refer to the. -i : -1 ii. i .. . I, i ' ciusiug ui mo regular college year ami the turning loose throughout the coun try of several thousand student-baseball players who will be tempted sore ly to risk fate and take upon them selves on the Q. T., of course the terrible blight of "professionalism." Sport was certainly on the blink and seldom or never on the first pages when those immortal lines asking, "What is so rare as a day in June," were penned, or the answer would have been obvious to a blind man. A real honei. to-goodueas smateur is the nu swer. Such a personage is rarer than two days in June, or than twelve hours in June. Which settles that point, but doesn't settle the question of summer playing by college men. Some of the bush league and semi professional clubs throughout the coun try are likely to make some shifts and take on new strength during the next few weeks, and though we would never suggest outright that the new bloods were fresh from the halls of learning, it isn't going too far to opine casually that although the names will not be similar, there will be re semblances between Borne of these new semi-professional players and certain college baseball Btars of whom we wot that would be startling to the erstwhile college chums of these players. And this brings us to another turn in the roail. Insofar as their stand ing in athletic circles is concerned, why shouldn 't a college man play ball dur ing the summer months with as much safety from being ruled out of college sport as would be accorded the college man who drives a truck during the summer? Tt.'s a foolish question and you don't have to answer. As a matter of fnct, the harder you look for the fine line of demonstra tion '' between "professional" nod "amateur" nthlctes, the dinner it be comes. There are hundreds, possibly thousands of students who are working their way through college. Some of them are good ball players. During the vacation months they must rustle enough wherewithal to carry thorn through the next term. To earn this money they may drive trucks, dig in sewers, work on section gangs, clerk, or do anything but play ball. If they accept money for playing ball and arc found out they are dubbed "professionals" and are barred from all future competition in college or rfny kind of amateur sports. At the opening of every football sea son 3, iln7ir. or more nhvers, franklv admit that they have spent tho sum mer working in the Kansas wheat fields, throwing a sledge with arnil road construction gang, or what not chiefly to get into condition. Tt is tnken for granted that these men were paid for the work they did to get them selves into physical shape to play foot- iinu: .low wncn yon ruminate over these instances it does seem a bit fool ish that a baseball player can 't keep himself in condition by tuking a small job with some bush league team dur ing the summer. A baseball man might plead that he wnnted to play summer ball in or dcr to condition himself for the next season, but he couldn 't get away with it. He might swenr he didn't receive a cent of money for his job, but few would believe him. And what a yelp there would be from the stone ipiurries, section gangs ami blacksmith shops where the football players were con ditioning. themselves, if they had to do AND HIS FAMILY AFFAIRS 0H piN Hiwr utrr r"7 I -I- their training at those jtfba without ball play. Now the point is not to change the rules, to permit a return of the condi tions which existed In the notorious pld days of "ringers," when the col lege or university with the most money could "buy" a championship by liter ally hiring athletes. College authori ties are urged to look the matter squarely in the face aud allow s;,nie leeway. Certain it is that there should bo rules to prevent real professionals from being enlisted on college teams, but it is just as certainly a bad thing to prevent bona fide amateur baseball players from playing through the sum mer months on bush league or semi professional teams. The rule could per mit students playing on any teams not directly under the national baseball commission, or it could go further and state what leagues or clubs the stud ents could not play on and retain their amateur standing. The suggestion ia not wholly original, so it isn 't boosting our own game to say that it is a mighty good one. Take it far what it's worth, you college solons and ama teur athletic union officials. RAILWAYS TO SAFEGUARD PUBLIC AGAINST DISEASE Aside from the customary disinfec tion of passenger coaches tho medical department of the Great Northern rail way has gone several steps farther in joining the country-wide movement to safeguard public health. It has been the custom for several years to compel all applicants for positions on dining and Bleeping cars to undergo the strict est physical examination before enter ing the employ of tho Hill system. The latest order draws the line even finer, making it imperative that every em ploye who oven takes a short leave of absence to undergo a physical examina tion by company physicians before re turning to the service. In this way, the medical corps declares, it will bo impos sible for any employe to continue in the public service if he is Buffering from tuberculosis or any other infectious or contagious disease. Further precaution is taken by the company in herring un desirable employes from employment whero food is stored and linens or ta bleware are kept. jne ureat iNortnern railway is ono of the few systems that owns its own sleeping rnrs, and thus it is enabled to carry out tho innovation advocated in tne lending meilicul journals, of placing an absolute barrier against tho spread ing of disease, by having the medical corps guard every possible avenue of danger. Tho American Medical Association, which will convene in Minneapolis in July, is expected to launch a fnr-reach-ing public health campaign along theso lines, urging every railway in tho Uni ted States to join in tho movement.

Investigating the concrete paving matter, The Capital Journal a few days ago wrote City Engineer llurlburt, of j Portland, as to that city's oxperiencol with concrete. It will be remembered that Tho Capital Journal stated that it had heard complaints made that the ce ment washing from the concrete streets set" in tho Be were and filled them up in time. We stated specifically at the time, that we knew nothing as to this phase of the matter, but we asked Mr. llurlburt as to the truth of it, aud his answer appears below. It will be noted, though, that Portland has but 5',-i miles of concrete paved streets, and that Mr. Hurlburt says "concrete is intended only for light traffic streets and is apt to be a little dusty, but if properly put lown, answers the purpose very well." We think Engineer" Hurlburt 's state ment is the strongest possible endorse ment of our position with regard to con crete paving. He points out that there "wash" from tho street, though it does lot "set" or harden in the sow ers. He also savs the "concrete paved streets are apt to be a littlo dusty." If the concrete does not grind away uu- ler the traffic whence comes the dustf If it does not wear and disintegrate, whence comes the "wash" into the catch basinsf He says it is intended for light traffic. That is the position we took, that for tho suburbs whero thero was no heavy traffic concrete would do, but that it was no good whero there was any considerable traffic. Mr. murlburt 'a letter follows: Engineering Department, City of Portland, Or. June 10, 11)13. Tho Capital Journal, Salem, Or. Gentlemen: In reply to yours of the 3d Inst., I wish to state that on Janu ary 1st 1013, the city of Portland had in place about 40 miles of Hassam pave ment and about 5 Hi miles of concrete pavement. There aro several contracts for Has sam pavement under way at the pres ent writing. Two yenrs ago this office made exhaustive investigation into this mutter of tho wearing off of Hassani pavements aud tho resultant setting up qualities of this worn off portion. Cutchhusins on Hassam streets were cleaned out and samples taken there from into our cement testing laboratory to determine whether or no any setting up qualities wero present. It was dis- ovcred conclusively that no setting up qualities in tho catch basin residue as found, wero present, and, furthermore, in not ono single instance was it found whero tho worn off portion of Ilussam or concrete pavement had in any way set up in tho catch basins. Coucreto pavement, however, is In tended only for light traffic streets and is npt to be a little dusty, but if prop erly put down, answers very well. Very respect fully. T.
