Upon casual inspection at least,' Telease oC Bobby Baer, bludgeon ing at a .336 rate at the time ot . his severance from the Solon ros . ter, and the booting of Olavi .: Soinila, who had four win to bat ' a pair of losses when the gate was opened for him, It would feem-Our Senators were making a headlong : rush toward the cool depths- of " the Western International league " cellar. : r : - Substantiating . this surface inspection wonM h be the- fact that up to last night the team that- Babblta Biddy Bishop v : built out of George E. Waters money had woi bit one gam im mix atarts since Baer and Solatia were banded blWe slips; No few. members of the bleach er brigade and the grandstand gallery many of whom have given the circumstances more than cas ual" glances, believe our Soions , guilty of colossal blunders in handing outright releases to ball players with 1940 records as high as were those of Baer and. Soinl ,1a. Especially, they point out, when the team Is so badly in need of third base talent and, In the case of Soinila, when the records Of some of the other pitchers on the squad make Ole's look right Fellerish. Benefit of Doubt. Perhaps the final analysis will prove these fans correct. Perhaps Baer will catch on with -another club and burn up some league in his zeal to show up the Senator management. Perhaps Soinila, who is to report tomorrow to the Ya kima Pippins, with whom he play ed in 1938, will become a 20 game winner. Until such time- as the- proof shows otherwise, however, the So lon management should be given the .benefit of doubts. Our Sen ators weren't the only ones to give np on Baer. They just i hap pen to be the latest. The Yankee . chain had Bobby three years and gave op. Before that he was a member of Carl Mays school, and King Carl gave up on him. Our Senators gave Spokane but $200 for him, bo you can see how jnuch the Indians thought of him. As for Soinila, the Solon management felt his won and , lost record flattered his true . worth to the dnb. Other re cords substantiated the feeling. Actually, Soinila worked in 15 . games bnt three less than - Brewer, the club's heaviest working hnrler and two more than Helser, the club's second hardest working pitcher. Ole was responsible for 51 rails In 86 innings, an earned run mark of 5.36. Must Have Fast One: Soinila, without doubt, was the best control master on the hurl ing roster. He knew just about where -that apple was going on every pitch. Too, tall Olie had one of the better curves on exhibition In this league. What ' he didn't have, and what every batter in the league knew he didn't have, was enough swift to keep 'em footloose or enough change of pace to bother them. Knowing all this about Ole, WI batters merely dug ia at the dish, waited for that curve ball to come over and then smacked it. As St. Louis Browns' Scout Butler said vthile a Salem visitor this spring, "we don't look at any pitcher any more if he doesn't have that fast one." Our. Senator management was convinced that Soinila, although he might be a .. winning pitcher in the WI, isn't going any higher. j Be that as It may, Newark's Bean go our Scions one better In this business of turning loose talent with sparkling averages. They recently took from their active list '"Ken Bears, batting .852, and re placed him with. Dalles -Warren, an oldster I who was at that time hitting .107 In the same league. j Joe Top Bopper. -' Well what do you know! City league Softball averages, as re leased by Statistician Jerry Stone.

Another interesting item in Stone's statistics :. Waits, despite crowding the cellar in the won and lost departments, have the best hitting and best fielding re cords In the loop ... The reason, then, that the Meatpackers are down there most be the pitching.

S DD CD RON GEMMELL Editor Salem, Oregon, Tuesday 'Bum' Galento's But -Bum9 Baer Bout -Goes on JERSEY CITY, N J, July 1-P) The case of the gashed chin, the final daffiest touch to an already hilarious set-up, was more or less cleared tip today, and it appeared only the constabulary could prevent Tony Galento and May Baer from keeping their fistic date night at 6 p. m. (PST). A beer glass, thrown by Tony'sO brother, picked out Tony's chin In Galento's "soft-drink empor lum" i in Orange last night and the results threatened for. a time to force, a postponement of the "battle of the bums." The glass sliced Tony's chin, for about an inch, right where his dimple would be if he had a dimple. Cut not Serious A couple of doctors looked it over today, however, and report' ed to State Boxing Commissioner Abe J. Greene that if the sliced chin was the only cut Tony re ceived in there .. tomorrow from the playboy ' of the Pacific,, he needn't worry. So, Greene asked Promoter Mike Jacobs and Her man jTaylor, one - of Two-Ton's managers, how they felt about. All hands, including Tony, decid ed the "minor abrasion" was not serious enough to keep this epic from an eager public. An . interesting sidelight on the episode came to light with more thorough investigation. It seems Tony made a slight mistake, dur ing an argument with his brother, Russell, by placing the glass on the bar between them. He should have locked It in the safe or at least put it out of reach. For when, the two got excited, Russell picked up the glass and threw It. Hla pitching ai-m and aim looked so good that, after being taken to headquarters by police and then Released, he spent most of the rest of the night turning down 'offers from i major lea rue clubs, i Injury not Realized Galento didn't realize for sev eral minutes he had been " cut.
