Bob Astin, on the mound for the Pels, looked good for the first six innings. In the seventh, however, the first batter greeted him with a single and then Lou Kotnik w’ho received a try-out with the St. Louis Browns this spring and also worked out with the Portland Beavers the past week, belted a long home run far over Hanscam’s head for the first two runs of the inning. This ap parently un-nerved Astin as he walked the next two batters. After an intervening sacrifice, both walks became runs when! Palmer, Myrtle Creek catcher, came through with a clutch hit. Bob retired the next two hitters, but ran into further trouble in the last of the eighth. After one out Kotnik hit a long triple and, scored on a subsequent single by ’ Ulam. Hank Westbrook relieved! Astin at this stage and w hile he | did not allow a hit, Ulm scored for the last Myrtle Creek run on an alleged balk by big Hank. The Pels scored their final run • in the top of the ninth and left Worse two runners stranded as Hans cam was called out on strikes. I The Ashland club, which de feated Grants Pass. 15-2, Sun day, comes to Brookings next Sunday for the home opener. While at least two college play ers which Business Manager Pete Lesmeister lined up on his trip to Portland last week will not be available until early in June, it is expected the Pelicans will present at least a somewhat strengthened lineup for Sunday’s game.

His loyal campaigning for Republican candidate! has been very effective and very helpful." SEN. ARTHUR H. VANDENBERG "I want to thank you for your relentless and consistent support for what I believe to be a sound foreign-policy for our country. You have been a tower of strength in defense of indispensable cooperation with our anti-Commupist allies and fer the collective security which not only protects us but also sustains the hopes of free men for a free world." SEN. MARGARET CHASE SMITH 'Many Republican and independent voters in America give great heed to the Republicanism of Wayne Morse.

HENRY CABOT LODGE, JR. 0 ... and here in Oregon CHARLES A. SPRAGUE, Former Governor of Oregon "Forcej, new forces, tremendous forces are loose in the world today. To ignore them is to invite the whirlwind bearing complete destruction to cherished ideas and ideals. The supreme undertaking is to harness these forces for man’s uplift, and there are few men in the United States as well equipped for this job as Wayne Morse. Oregon Republicans should renominate Morse, with PRIDE as well as purpose.“ E.

His work in the Senate is a source of Strength to the Republican Party." "Senator Morse has demonstrated a dynamic leadership based upon a deep and realistic understanding of today’s problems. He is neither mired down in the mistakes of the past nor a victim of the delusion that we must abandon our democratic for a socialistic form of government. And, importantly, he has the moral and political courage that is desperately needed in Congress today." — and similar statements acclaiming his leadership and ability from • •.
