THE CHEiwAWA GAME. On Saturday, May 12, occurred the greatest baseball game in which S. H. S. has ever participated. It lasted for twelve long innings and was replete with the best ball ever seen on a Salem diamond. The fact that our infield had fifty-four hard chances and made but four errors, and the outfield had five chances with one error will tell the stran- ger what kind of ball was played that day. The one error in the out- field was only caused by Fisher and Eyre going after a fly and colliding. Eyre made two of the most sensa- tional catches ever seen in Salem. One was when he scaled a high bank covered with weeds and tall grass, and picked a high fly off the top of the right field fence. Another was when he cut off a dinky single ove? second base. Not being able to reach it he threw himself through the air and picked it just as it was going to hit the ground. Lawrence Keenes was the hero of the day. He struck out ten Indians, allowed four bases on balls, gave out but thirteen hits, hit two men, got three hits himself, two of which were home runs, and made three tallies. That last homer was the one that did the work. Jones had reached second, and with Cne- mawa in the lead by one run it was up to Keenes to do or die. He tidid. The mighty Poland threw an incurve, and with gritted teeth and every muscle and nerve in his body strainel to the highest tension, he swung on 1t and sent it sailing over the right field fence, winning the game. It was a glorious victory, coming as it dld, and will live long in the memory of the students of the Salem Hint School. The whole infield playe'l superb ball, as the tabulated score will show. The ball that Keenes knocked over the fence for the win- nlng run is in the possession of the manager, and will be given to the. school When a collection of trophies is started.

THE CLARION STUDENT BODY MEETING. The' last meeting of the associated student body was called for the pur- pose of discussing the track and base ball outlook for the season of 1907. This was by far the most interesting and enthusiastic athletic meeting ever held in the Salem High School. It being argued on one side by the base ball team and on the other by the future track athletes. The, High School has never before had a track team, but with such promising men as Eyre, Smith, R. Moores, C.,Moores, McIntyre, Utter, Fisher and J ones, a creditable team could be put upon the field to represent the high school on the track as Well as in the other branches of athletics. OiTers have been issued to all the main high schools in Oregon to send seven track men to Corvallis, where the big high school meet will be held on J une 18, 1907. Owing to the fact that all other high schools will be represent- ed it could not be considered for a minute that the Salem High School should lag behind and let the other schools go ahead. After the reading of the minutes William Mott, i07, was elected to manage the football team for the coming season, as was Ralph Cronise to again manage the Clarion. Cronise then introduced a motion to include track as well as base ball in the high school athletics, but after much discussion this was found to be conflicting so that one must be cut out inorder to handle the other suc- cessfully. R. Moores made an amend- ment to the motion to the effect that track would be included only after the dispensing of base ball, which was carried by a close vote. The motion then carired with the amend- ment, which means that there will be no base ball in the Salem High School next spring, much to the dis- gust of many. The track manager has not been elected yet and prob- ably will not be until track season. approaches next spring. There seems to be a general tendency throughout 'the valley to cut base ball for track. However, it will not be long before the school will carry on both branch- res successfully. W .Prof. Marlatte is opposed to strike. 27 WOODBURN GAME. On Monday, J une 4, election day, the high school went to Woodburn for a practice game with the Wood- burn baseball club. It had been raining for several days before the game, and the team was stiff and out of practice. It rained in torrents just before the game,and the grounds were a sea of mud. The Woodburn team was composed of old and ex- perienced players, but When it came to the fine points of the game they were not in it. Arch J erman of Wil- lamette University was engaged to pitch for Woodburn. The high school got seven hits off him, while Wood- burn only scratched three from Keenes. We should have won, but for a dummy play on the part of one of our men. Ralph Moores and Oudin Roberts were the stars, Moores getting several nice chances without an error, while Roberts got three hits and a sacrifice out of four times at bat. To cap off everything, the Woodburn management showed his color by cheating us out of four dol- lars expense money. It will be a day when the weather is below freez- ing when Woodburn gets a game with Salem High School again. ' ROBERTS ELECTED CAPTAIN. Immediately after school was dis- missed Friday, June 15, Manager Cronise called the baseball team to- gether in Prof. Marlatteis room for the purpose of electing a captain for the season of 1907. Wm. Perkins placed Oudin Roberts in nomination, who was elected unanimously. Rob- erts is undoubtedly the best man on the team for the place. His playing is superb, rarely ever making an er- ror. He has a thorough knowledge of the game, and uses good head- work at all times. He is a valuable man in a pinch, and has assisted the team several times this season in working out of a hole. Hereis to Captain Roberts, and may next yearis team be undefeated. m Friend to Perry R. in Public Libr- arye-What are you looking for? Perry R.-That book, itHow a couple can live on $40 a month.
