The Elks led throughout entire game, when they three runs during the first three innings off three hits and six errors. Jackson pitched great ball for seven innings, five hits and no markers during that time, but he weakened a bit in the eighth and blew up in the ninth.

However, Olivares, although with a second division entry, has gained | wide recognition. Definite of- fers, all in excess of §$50,000, have been made by big league clubs, but mone has even tempted the Colonels’ owners, who figure his value at around §100,000. The rise of Olivares in profes- sional baseball has been remark- able. He came to this country four years ago from Cuba at the urging of Merito Acosta, veteran Cuban outfielder of the Colonels.| Jose couldn’t speak a word of English, and this handicapped him, even on the playing field. But| ioncedlie got his bearings his fu- ture was assured. Olivares was a student of medi cine at the University of Havana when Acosta convinced him that he should try his fortune in the States. The first season Louis- ville farmed Olivares out to a Southern League tezm, whose man- ager a few days later wired as follows: “Your kid is a real ball player, but I haven't time to learn Spanish this year.” 8o Olivares dropped down to a Class B. eircuit. Last year, with the Little Rock .club of the Southern Association, Jose fielded 940 and batted .282 in 82 games. His batting and field- ing have held up this year, and his throwing arm rates well with the best in the league. ‘Warstler came to the A. A. with a more pretentious record. Play- ing with the Quincy club of the Three-Eye last year, he batted .351 | i for 128 games, finishing third in}’ the league averages.
