TO PRESENT
T
Pennant Contenders Will
lash Here Sunday In Inter
City League
Although Salem lost the I4-inning
struggle last Sunday the fans were con
vinced that the Caiital City is repre
sented by a strong team of pennant
eontenders this your and the officials of
the club are satisfied that the present
line-up wilt win a majority of the games
this yeur. The liue-up that was used
last Sunday will face the Kilpatricks
again tomorrow with the exception of
the battery where Gill will bo replaced
by Huuser and Burham will perform on
the mound.
Huuser was out of last Sunday 's game
on account of a cracked rib though he
replaced Kasninrk late in the game in
the outfield. The work of Gill, the high
school catcher, behind the bat, was up
to standard but Gill caught a good game
but he has not had the experience of
ilauser, w ho has cavorted about various
fcaseball diamonds for several years. .
Jones will work at first ouse and
Humphles will cover the keystone sack.
.Miller, who had some bad luck last Sun
day will still boss the short pasture.
Aliller was credited with an error on
the official score last Sunday but this
was later changed though .Miller did not
receive credit for the change in the
tory of the gaane. Miller tossed one
into tho dirt to Jones at first base and
the error was given to Miller for a wild
throw but tho scorer later concluded
that Jones should have snared tho
louud and gave the error to the first
baseman.
"Wilson is still under protest and it is
not likely that he will be able to play
in tomorrow's game at third. Bell,
Alickel and one other outfielder yet to
ha selected will make up the trio of
r'lychasers.
The game will be called promptly at
3 o'clock unless some whim of the
weather man sends down a few diamond
drips to postpone the ball game and
am tae corn crop.

Grantland Rice Tells .
of Great Pitching Year
Big Pitching Years
"What is considered a big average
number of games for a pitcher to work
in through a season?". queries If. O. F.
Hounding up an average is no simple
task, but the high run seasons of lead
ing pitchers might offer some line on
the subject, says Grantland Rice, the
sport wr::-.'.
Matthewson's hardest season was in
I9dS, vtlen he took part in u6 ws
His next fattest campaign was in 1911,
when he took part in 4N games. Math
ewHin has pitched in 40 games or more
in nine of his 16 seasons.
Ed Walsh was the long-distance king
of them all. Iu 1 90S Walsh took active
part in 06 games, nearly half the bat
ties fo::(.ht. It is noteworthy that in
1U0S, tne two years Matty and Waish
and White Sox were both beaten out
of the pennant bv one game, in 1911
Walsh took part in 55 gnmes and he
toiled in 02 eam in 1912. No wonder
he passed out as a star before his
prime was over. They pitched his arm
off and his heart out because he was
willing to shoulder the burden.
Walter Johnson's two tough seasons
were 50 games in 1912 and 01 games
in 1914. Johnson has pitched in 40
games or more every season since 1908.
Alexander s big vear was last season
when he worked in 49 games. Big
Alex has worked in from 46 to 49
games each yea, he has been with
the Philies, showing the general con
sistency of his endurance.
Larry Cheney worked in 54 games
for the t ubs in 1916 and .i0 games in
1913.
In discussing pitchers the wondor
vork of Eddie Plank should not be
fo-gotten. Plank has never been call
ed upon to carry the burdens that
Walsh, Mathewson and Johnson have
carried but the remarkable part is
that at 41 he is as effective as he was
at 25. Plank and Cy Young arc the on
ly two pitchers we know of who have
staved in the gam.
the chamber will be about 30x100 feet
and will house the machinery. It w ill be
of rough construction. Hetting tanks
will also be built on the property leased.
Water for rettine the flax will be pump
ed from the river.
Eugene Bosse, the expert who is su
pervising the planting and growing of
the crop and who will also supervise the
manufacturing operations, has a flax
mill at Salem, and this will be moved
here as soon as the building is in shape
to house It.
It is the Intention of the Chamber of
Commerce to have the mill ready for
operation by August 1, when it is ex
pected tho flax will begin to come
in.
The flax planted on several different
tracts Is now up and growing and the
prospects are that there will be a good
yield.
In a short time a list will be furnish
ed of the names of farmers planting
flax, giving the location of each tract
of ground so that any of the citizens of
Eugene orVarmers in I.sne county may
visit them and see what a field of flax
looks like. Eugene Register.
