Hopijng to snap out of the dol

nine of their last 12 gams, Sa
lem's Senators depart for j Brem
erton farly this morning tp open
a seven game series against the
aecondi-di vision Blue Jackets. Ex
pecting some replacement even
before ithe week is out, Frisco Ed
wards pine hopes to get balk into
the whining stride against Sam
Gibsonfs outfit that carried them
to those 13 consecutive wiis that
started! off the season. j
The series with the Taf s will
mark j Salem's first competition
with a western foe In the loop,
all ganes so far having beer
againsf the three eastern putfits,
Yakima, Spokane and Weniatch t
whichj Incidentally stand 2, 3 and

Salem returns to their home
grounds on Tuesday, May 27,
against the Vancouver Capilanos.
The! Senators were still very
much j in their slump Sunday,
dropping the opener of the day's
twin-bill 4 to 1 but edging back
to cop the nightcap 2 to 1. be
hind te four-hit twirling of Lefty
Carl punnarson. The split gave
Yakima the series 5 to 2 and left
the Solons Just one game ahead
of Spencer Harris' crew in first
place.
In fact, the Yaks held a first
place : jtie with the locals for part
of the afternoon after taking the
first game, but dropped back by
losing; the nightcap. 2601 fans sat
in on the two games, despite Sa
lem's : poor showing through the
week.,!
Salem actually outhit the visi
tors in the first game Sunday and
got good enough pitching from
Ed Kowalski to have won most
contests, but a couple of errors by
new third-sacker Jim Daniels and
Ralph: Arnott in right field per
mitted unearned runs in the third
and eJtghth and that was the ball
game, for Yakima hurler Al Yay
lian had the punchless Solons com
pletely stiffled at the dish. Kow
alski struck out eight, and while
Yakima got but six hits off hi
delivery, every one of them came
in a crucial spot when they hurt
most.
Woody Salmon and Bob Cav

the afterpiece, Cavinoss clouting
one against the right center field
