In cne of their more explosive moods of the
semester, Salem' Senators last night racked up
the Taccma Tigers 12 to 3 before 1733 "clients at
Wats park, evened the series at
ana mace way lor toaays iuju
pjn. twin bin. For the Jack Wil
son troupe today it wilL be Vince
Lazor in the nine-inning shot and
Lefty Wandell Mossor in the
shortef nightcap. Skipper Red
Harvel will toss Southpaw Cy
r.rmihar in lh Ions? PMlf and
probably Mitchell Chetovich in
the finale. Following today's duet
the townies take to the road, vis
iting Bremerton and Tacoma this
week. . -
Lefty Kenny Wyatt, although
serving up the first two home
run pitches of the local season,
one to Big Dick Greco in the
second heat and the other to
Bobby Joratz in the third, .the
latter with a runner on base,
nonetheless breezed with with his
fourth straight victory.
He dished out 10 hits in all but
only the two round-trippers, both
dropped over the right field wall,
caused him any grief. The pert
lefty was nding on a 5-0 lead
when Greco spanked his, the five
tallies trickling across in an up
roarious first frame when the
Solon side batted-. around on four
kits three of them doubles by
Al Snaeter. Bill Beard - and-Mel
r"ur.es a walk and two Tiger
errors.
The Tiges made a game of it
on the two home runs? but Salem
gain came up with two runs in
... . . i a i r ai : . w 1
two. in the seventh to collect the
easiest win of the home season
o far. ' -
The Harvels, in a generous
mood after spilling the locals 4-1
Friday night, pitched in with five
errors to add to the miseries of
erET starter Julian Morgan and
Eelieiers GUson and Nygard.
Only five of the Legislator runs
were earned.
The bieeer stickmen . for the
Wilsons were newly-acquired
Bob Moore, with four singles in
five trips and four runs batted in,
and Mel Nunes with a perfect
J-for-3, one a double. Nunes was
playing third base again as Hank
Bartolornei was injured in the
pre-garce practice by a flying
bat He was hit solidly in the
throat with the bludgeon but was
cot believed seriously hurt late
last night.

Seattle Finally Wins
By tho Associated Press
The San Francisco Seals clinched their series
with the Portland Beavers and atoned for the
plastering the Bevos gave them up north two
weeks ago as they last night downed the Port
lands, 8-6. The win gave the Seals
a 4-1 margin. Bill Werle went the
route for the ODouls, giving up
nine blows. At the same time the
Seals were bunching an equal
number off four Portland hurlers.
Seattle finally broke into the win
column at the expense of Los An
geles, downing the Angels, 3-1,
on the five-hit hurling of Walt
DubieL Lou Novikoff homered for
Seattle. Guy Fletcher rang up his
sixth win as he pitched the Sac

Boxing boss Tex Salkeld's 23-

event finds Middleweight Dick

in his opponent, rugged Ray Gar

free gent who can make a few
of those 10 heats right miserable.
Garcia has yet to make a bad
fight in the village arena.
Hal Fries, the southpaw feath
erweight stablemate of Abnay,
draws down the 6-round special
assignment on the card. Fries, un
beaten in three previous fights
h.ere, goes up against Chris Greg

Duane, late of New Orleans.
The top four-rounder will be
occupied by heavyweights Keller
Wagner, the Rialto rapper, and
Frank Pattee, tough-Portland 200
pounder. Wagner has won three
straight fights since his last arm
ory appearance and according to
his manager Phil Bayes is now
in much better condition than he
was then. Tickets for the punch

Not only is Frank (Beanie) Shone playing regularly for Beau

fiend and stealing the eyes from tbe enemy hurlers .... The boans
and groaas aimed at Hal Summers by the bleacher blurbs for not yet
hitting his stride are premature. Remember, Hal was a late starter
last semester, but when be did get going, he went so fast he wound up
with a .303 baiting average and almost 100 RBI's .... Same goes for
Lefty Wandell Mossor, due to toil In today's seven-Inning piece against
the Tiges. Mossor has net yet regained the proper pitching condition

The Reasons Why Luke teas Turned Loose
So many "how comes?" have flooded anyone who will listen
on the Frank Lucchesi release that It might be well to explain the
real reasons why the popular little outfielder was sacked. (1) The re
building Portlands have no plans for Frank for the future and figured
he might make a belter deal for himself elsewhere, a U Eddie Wheeler.
Frank Shone, et aL (2) What with better bitters Lou Knbiak, Hal
Summers and Bob Moore on hand, plus the possibility of the arrival of
another outfielder soon, the Senator management agreed with the
Portland verdict. Seeing a likeable hastier like Lake turned out isn't
too palatable, but then baseball Is loaded wltb more bad breaks than
good. Too, when a ball club isn't winning changes must be made . . . .
