SALVAGING COMPANY STARTS MOVING OUT WITH FOREST PRIDE The first of the Curtis-Wiley Marine Salvage Company equip- ment to move south will be the barge Forest Pride, expected to leave the Islander tomorrow or the next fuy if the company is suc- cessful in pulling her off the beach tonight. The tug Georgia will tow the Forest Pride to Seattle, returning after the other pieces of equipment about two weeks. Possibly three trips will be made before it is all transported to Puget Sound. Last to go will be the historic Islander, her crushed bow bulk- headed with cement, and lashed to the side of the Griffson. —————— NOTICE Having been called to Seattle, my office will be closed for about three weeks. —adv.

With Uhall of the Chicago White Sox on first, Haas rolled a bunt down the third base line. Cros- etti came in, scooped up the ball and pegged Haas out by an eye- |lash. Uhalt, rounding second, saw third base unguarded and kept. right on going. But Dickey, who had started. to chase the bunt, kept on going, too, and he arrived at third just in time to take Gehrig's return throw and tag the sliding Uhalt. - - e, ©e0e0 06000600000 | SPORT BRIEFS | ® 60 9 06 00 0 0 0 0 0 Contestants in a Sacramento, Cal. golf tournament had to wear glass- es during the four weeks of play.

Although this sport is popular in most European countries it has as yet failed to find favor with the British public. Olympia, the large London hall used for horse-shows, boxing ex- hibitions, and similar events, is to house the wooden cycle track, which will be eight mile and have 53 degrees banking. An attempt is being made to in- clude an English team but the dearth of home talent is giving the promoters of the affair more than a little, worry. -SPORT SLANTS| The boys finally Bill Klem, the National League’s most famous umpire and they did- n't miss the long-awaited oppor- tunity to rub it in, as a conse- quence of President John Heyd- ler's reversal of the arbiter’s ruling on an infield fly ball and his or- der to replay the game, involving the bs and Cardinals, spot where the mistake It’s all because Klem is noted for his'outspoken claim that he “nev- er made a mistake” in calling 'em from behind the plate or on the bases in 30 years of Major League umpiring. A gruff disciplinarian, Klem has never compromised with the ball players. He is held in highest respect by ome and all But the fact that he finally “miss- ed one” that left him no come- back has been relished in baseball circles. In all fairness to Klem, how- ever, it should be said that the long-standing popular notion about his attitude on making decisions has been misconstrued. Bill never meant to have the idea prevail that he didn’t or couldn't make a mistake. He has often told his {riends:.
