BROOKLYN, Aug. 5 -UP-
Kookue Max Macon pitched two-
hit shut-out ball Wednesday night
as the Brooklyn Dodgers over
powered the New York Giants -
to 0 in a twilight game before
23,232 fans at Ebbets Field. The
contest was rim off in 1 hour and
51 minutes, easily beating the dim
out deadline which had halted the
two rivals two straight nights at
the Polo Grounds. , ,
Macon, the southpaw whom
the Dodgers recalled from their
Montreal farm club at the- start
of their last western trip, held
the Giants httless until the sixth
inning when Mickey, Witek,
buried eighth in the New York
batting order, belted a double
against the left field fence.
However, this did not disturb
Macon and he retired the Giants
in order from that point until two
were out in the ninth when Dick
Bartell dribbled a tricky grounder
which shortstop Pee Wee Reese
had difficulty fielding just back
of second base and which was
scored "as a single. Macon faced
only 29 men.
It was the first complete
game for the rookie, whose
only previous start was at St.
Louis, where he was knocked
out but got credit for winning.
He had appeared three times In
relief.

The contest witnessed a tight

were of the unearned variety.
A walk, Joe Loforte's single, an

Tacoma a run in the first inning.

of which crossed the plate fol

Richards finally returned to his
it was just because Big Ron
luckless Senators finally broke loose Wednesday night here
and gave the league-leading Vancouver Capinalos a 5-2 beating,
thereby ending a seven game los
ing streak.
Richards and Smith weren't
the only Senators figuring in the
victory, however, as Outfielder
Sam Taormlna personally ac
counted for three runs with his
first inning home run, a double
In the third to drive in another
tally, and a single In the fifth,
which ultimately developed into
one of two more Salem counters
for that Inning when Richards
doubled him home.
In all, Salem laced out 11 hits
off Starter Bill Flaugher and his
ninth inning successor, Charlie
Marshall. Smith gave up nine
blows to the Caps, and outside a
home run to Bill Wright, and an
other single by Wright, followed
by Clarence Maddern's triple,
spaced the hits exceedingly well.
It was Smith's 11th win of the
season.
The win was, Salem's first in
the four-game series, which ends
here Thursday night and re-opens
in Salem Friday night

navy relief fund; .
The game wHI be the second
one this season ta which the
Senators have participated for
the Y navy relief benefit fond.
They helped raise over" 2t
for the fond by playing the 1
Eugene Athletics In Eugene en
July t. Also slated for Aogast
21 at Gee, E. Waters park la the
giant "Union Labor night," part
f the proceeds of which will bo
tamed over to the TJSO fond.
Since it was doubtful that Sa
lem would whole-heartedly sup
port Monday night's relief game
at Geo. E. Waters park, It waa de
cided to hold it on, the Silverton
diamond.
An effort Is being made by
Delbert Reeves post No. 7, Sil
verton American Legion, spon
sors of the game, to obtain the
services of Big Roy Helser to
pitch for the Sox against his
former Senator teammates. Bel- l
ser spent a number of seasons
with the Sox before southpaw
ing for the Salens team.
As Salem holds the mythical
"state baseball championship, of
Oregon" since downing both the
Portland Beavers and Eugene
Athletics already this season,
Monday night's game will prob
ably be called a "title" game.
However, .. the. Senators, sadly
weakened by the loss of many of
their key players recently, may
not put their "title" at stake.
Monday night was originally
slated for a return match with
the Beavers at Geo, E. Waters
park, but a refusal to play the
Solons by Beaver President E.
J. Schefter left the date open.
It is not known for certain just
who Manager Charlie Petersen
will nominate for duty against the
Silver-Sox, although it is likely
he will start Big Ron Smith,
leading hurler on the club. The
Senators, now playing in Van
couver, will return from the
Canadian city to open a four
game series with the league-leading
Caps Friday night '
