wien you toss in Vour contribution toward Jack Wilson "nif hf
vm ca rest assured your douth Is golnf to honor an all-rlsht guy.
Sure, the preaa snd various tents unrelated to the local ball club have
raised Jack aplenty, both as a skipper and a man. But the payoff lies
in the comments of the bunch who are really qualified to voice an
opinion the players. To a man
their sentiment is: "Great guy to
work for; be knows his baseball".
And beyond a doubt Jack would

Lefty Kenny Wyatt had Tige
Ace Gordon Walden whipped 3 to
1 for six heats in their argument,
but wobbled long enough in the
seventh to allow a 3-aJl tie on
two hits, one of those always-present
walks and a wild pitch. Then
in the tenth the Tiges sewed
things up with a pair of unearned
runs. Bob Donovan singled with
one out and Hank Bartolomei's
double-play bounder was booted
by Bud Peterson. Weil Clifford
popped up for what would have
been at least the third out, but
then Wyatt walked pitching foe
Walden to load the bases. Center
fielder Pete Tedeschl, a defensive
demon earlier in the tilt as he
hauled down enough extra-base
labeled Salem wallops to insure
an easy win, then promptly
smacked a terrific double high
against the right field fence and
that was that.
The Solons had ample chance
to nail the win in their half of
the ninth and tenth frames, but
failed. In the ninth the bases were
loaded up after two were out on
singles by Wyatt and Krug and
a walk to Peterson, but Mel Nunes
popped up to end the threat. Then
in the tenth Eddie Barr walked
and Dick Sinovic was safe on
Bartolomei's error to start what
looked like a rally with one out.
Lou Kubiak flied to center and
Bill Beard walked, filling up the
sacks again. Mgr. Wilson batted
for Wyatt and stroked a 380-foot
fly far to center, but pesky Ted-
eschi was there waiting for it to
end the game. Had Wilson hit his
ball In any other park in the
league but the Waters and Ta
coma orchards he would have had
a right mighty home run.
The Tiges got to Wyatt for their
first run in the opening inning on
Guy Miller's double, Glenn Stet
ter's single and Dick Greco's fly.
Salem came right back with Bud
Peterson's triple and Bob Moore's
clutch single for one run, and got
another in the third when Marty
Krug singled, stole second and
romped in when Moore again
came through in the clutch, this
time with a triple. In the fourth
the Salems got their third tally
and could just as well have had
a fourth. Sinovic singled to open
the inning and Kubiak doubled
Into left-ccntier. When Sinovic
held up at third Kubiak came
right on and was trapped between
second and third.; Wyatt's ensu
ing shot to center scored only
Sinovic.
For Wyatt it was his eighth
loss of the campaign, and for the
townies their 16th at home, as
against 38 wins Ralph Mohler
made his home debut as a catcher
and picked up one scratch hit in
three trips . . . The game was il
luminated with just about as nice
a night of outf ielding as will , be
seen. Barr and Sinovic joining
Tedeschi with a series of great
plays. Two of Barr's were pure
ly sensational . . . Distinguished
visitor for the evening was League
