Too fat and t so much baseball junk, they d down around the Golden Gate. Walters thought otherwise and ved his case. He finished sec- among the pitchers, with a of 12 wins and five losses, 304 in 129 games as he played in the outfield and on third base, as the situation required. Walters is with Portland again this year, and I read a character- ¥ istic story about him, in connection with events just prior to the open ing of the season. John, it seems, had not impressed Manager Larry * Wocdall by his manner of getting into condition. ~With a threat of al if he failed to behave himeelf, Walters was assigned to pitch against Seattle in an exhi- bition tilt . . . Whereupon the ir- repressible one subdued the In- | » dians, started Portland’s first scor- ing rally and finally broke up the game with a triple off Dutch Rue- ther. At last reports he still 2 had his job. Respecting the remark of Bud McBride, Nebraska halfback that «“we (football players) are just the menkeys at the circus—going through our antics to bring in a neat little pile at the box office,” ¥ Major John L. Griffith's Athletic Journal hammers editorially: “It is well for Mr. Bride that he criti- cized college athletics and not the Amateur Athletic Union. Ray Bar- buti was punished by this latter organization because he expressed his opinions concerning some condi- tions that existed in the A. A. U. The college men should be en- couraged to speak freely about their wown games. None of them will be disciplined for so speaking.” Major Griffith must fear that the hammer will get a trifle rusty w if not brought into occasional use “Coast schoolboy does 100 in 9 3-5 H flat"—headline. i This seems to be Pacific Coast Standard Time. — e # LE MANS RACING CLASSIC IS AUTO ENDURANCE TEST| PARIS, May 13.—The Le Mans| auto race, to be run June 21-22 this year, is regarded as Europe’s big- -est competitive event for automo- biles. It attracts a large number of joreign cars, and the fight by American cars for a good showing ,. is keen because of its advertising “ value. In the Le Mans event the com- peting machines must maintain ccrtain minimum speeds for 2¢ hours.

Rumors on the opening of sal- mon stream fishing for local rod- {men were finally confirmed Sunday when at least three steelhead sal- mon were pulled from the waters of Peterson Creek in Eagle River Valley. The Rev. A. P. Kashevaroff was the most successful one. He took two after hard fights with rod and a light line. His longest one was 31 inches. E. Wonderly was the other successful fisherman. Al- though it has been rumored for some time that the salmon were running in Peterson Creek, Sun- day’s expeditions were the first to be successful this year. — - CAROLINA BULB INDUSTRY STIMULATED BY HOLLANDER TERRA CEIA, N.
