Wdn diT Aujurt A S Runs ih 9th Not Enough renins Up to TicEts, Wi 1948 One of the New Hot-Shots By Al Lightner f " For 9j uproarious minutes at Waters park last night it a if the town I Senators were to take a bite out of the whamrrj ha been the Bremerton Bluejackets this season. But the five-run rally uncorked by our men in the ninth fell three short and th Tars, -up to their old tricks, took down, an 8-5 series opening wiri. That makes 15 Brem wins in 18 starts against the Solons this semester. The Salems get two more whirls looked I ' .-jQtV YCjfd y that ! I ;.;-rw - " j - - I at the league - leading enemy to night in a double bill, starting at seven o'clock; but lo, Manager Jack Wilson, slapped in the face with an old plague, is faced with playing eeny - meeny with his pitching staff for the .tilts. Wilson will start either Hal Saltzman, Ray McNulty or Bus Sporer. The win.- happy I Tars, blessed with the best p tching in the circuit, will shoot Lefty Max Hittle and Righthandei Keith Simon, both big winners! at the locals. Speaking pf big winners, Side armer John Conant, although he failed to weather the Solon storm in the ninth,; pocketed his 17th decision of the campaign for Al an Strange's crew last night And one of Salem's top f lingers. Cal Mclrvin, absorbed the setback. Cuffed about in spasms, Lefty Cal swallowed loss No. 9, as against 13 wins. It seems the big blond just cant hurdle that "13" level. The Bremertons, by virtue of a-walk and three of the bloopiest bloopers imagineable, jumped off to a 4-0 lead in the first frame. This, accompanied by Mr. Conant's oft - impressive serving, looked to be enough for the eventual outcome. Things, looked even worse in the seventh when the visitors put together three more btngles and two walks for two more counters to. make it 6-0. They rubbed it in with two more , for an 8-0 bulge in the eighth, a j walk and two hits bringing about ; this damage. But what had beer, s breeze for Conant the first eight frames turned into blizzard in the ninth as the Salems turned nasty. "Mighty Mouse" Mel Nunes start ed it by busting a single into right field. Joe Gedziu: foiced Mel af second, and Bill Burgher skied to left. But Meirvir., not to lose this one if at al! possible. Klammed a triple high onto the right field wall and Gedzius was in with a run. . Mclrvin had hardly caught his breath when Jimmy Wert punch ed a single to right, his fourth bingle of the session, to score him. Conant then went all to pieces and walked both Ray McNulty, in for Al Spaeter, and Ralph Samham mer. Then when Dick Sinovic shot a double into left for two runs, that was the end of Mr. Conant. Reliefer Bob Pirack, once with Yakima, came in just in time to walk Eddie Barr and hit Nunes in the back with a pitched ball, the latter cast forcing in the fourth Salem run. Strange jerked Pirack in favor of Johnny Marsh. 11, and with the sacks jammed up strode Big Jim Olsen to hit for Qedzius. Jim came through, all right, but in the wrong place. He lajshd a Liner to deep center that wjas tak en by Eddie Murphy finally, and had the ball been pulled t right, accounts of the entire rassle would have been quite different.! The Brems got to Mclrvin for 13 bingles. and Salem biffej 12 off Conant. Wert's quartet wts tops for the latter, and Jay Rajgni for the enemy had three. j 3assiNsasii 'fiMF!

For cinema, Idols are rarely con vincing in such roles. Gary Cooper did a good piece of act ing as Lou. Gehrig in the Pride of the Yankees so far as the lines of the script went. But gaunt Gary had an awful time, physically speaking, trying to put over the ball field technique f the Iron Horse, who was as sturdy a guy as ever hit the big time. Cooper looked like a wraith when you pictured him up alongside Plane Legs Lou and Cooper swinging a bat? ' GART COOPER Bad had! . .; . Now comes the Babe Ruth story with Bill Bendlx as the Bambino. And reports say that Bendlx does a right smart Job with the role. BUI is sufficiently husky, though he's minus that Ruthlan blob of a.1 nose and, the important thing -- Bendlx has a semlpro hall background. When he swings It Isn't at the coaxing of mm director fresh out of the haaeballess Balkans. Fact Is that Bendlx smacked one Into the stands at Yankee stadium re cently In ceremonies eonneeted with the premiere of the movie ' a New York. . . . Meet Looms Even though Porky Oliver, the Seattle sharpshooter, is back in the lucrative atmos phere of big time competition dent be too sure, hell i pass up the North west Pro-Amateur show at SGC next week. Perky owed he'd be here and the gent Is said to be a man of his word. Incidentally,. Oliver's sud den trip back ; to the Western Open at Buffalo ' where he spurred by the Wilson sports outfit with which he has a eon tract. Of course, if the Wilsons rule that Oliver continue swing ing foiv the ; big dolugh that would be another thing, again. . . . Oliver,: or no Oliver, the tourney, starting next Wednes day, is going to be a eracker jaek affair - and asi a means of showing the visiting lumi naries that Salem Is 4 tlnt rate golfing town, let's have some whopping galleries enj both days of the meet. . . . Speaking of divoters. Chuck ' Conrdon, the Tacoma ace who b ure to be here, runs contrary to the usual pattern. The high-water mark of Chuck's career eame after he had passed the 49 frnark. He's one of those guys who's not overly consistent but who can be devastatlngly hoi at times. If you followed Congdon in last year's Portland Open you know what we mean. In that one he made even t Hogan ook medi ere o o Around the To ten Have you noted the almost Identical positions that the Sen ators and the parenjt Portlands hold in their respective stand ings? Both repose lit the No. 7 slot. The Solons, stj this writ ing, were 19 games iff the first . division. The Bevos rested 7Vi games back; of the select group. If the Salems could but togeth er something resembling a win ning spurt s they'd have a fine chance to gain a lot! of ground, for the Spokanea, the Vancou ver and the Wenatchees have been rather wobbly of late. . . . Precedent: That's what Walt Lebold's Mayflower Milks set when they (1) went through the Junior A league campaign un beaten and; (2) racked up their second title in a revf. Key clash in the local sof tball pic ture comes August 1J5 when the Moo try Druggists and Camp bell Rock Wools tangle in the contest which, will probably de cide the American loop title. That un oughta be a hum-dia-ger with Jim Rawlins and Bob Knight locking horns. . . . And more than; one win tell . yon that the victor in that fracas will eventually represent the city in the state tobrney. But them maybe the Golden Fheas ' 'ante and J the1 Master- Breads of the National circuit; will have something to say abeut that.... Mr. Consistency: That's Bob Gregg, the masterful ntaneuver er of the midget machines. It's gotkn to be so much a habit with Bob to snare, all the laurels out Hollywood "Bowl way that you can be safe in .writing the headlines a week before. . . . if v r yfc-i .;.--S Certainly not recommended for those who love life, this 'stunt of piloting a motorcycle through; a flaming wall is but one of tht many offered by the Sitan IleO Drivers who will Friday night present their 2-hour thrill show at Salem's Hollywood Bowl. In the above shot Johnny (MeGee) Smith, one of the doxen Holly - 1 wood movies stunt men who make up the show is aboard the -bike". Tractors Licked The Stdnes defeated the Inter state Tractors, 8-4, last night in an Industrial league sof tball clash. Mickenhaijn set the Tractors down with seveit hits and hit a homer in the fifth. menued. starting with the time trials at eight o'clock, instead of the usual 7:30. The main races, opening with the helmet dash, start as soon as the trials are over. New drivers and cars due for debuts include Wild Bill Evans of Palo Alto, Bob Barkheimer of Berkeley, Dick Reese of Fresno, Jim Oney, Hank Whitney. Walt Fain, Shorty Clement, Leo Haak, Junior Husbands and Stan Ness. They'll go up against "oldtimers of the local season Bob Gregg, Gordy Livingstone, Gordy Young strom, Howie. Osborne, George Amick, Stocky Stock well. Bob Vorberk, Frank McGowen, Wade Althuser, Leo Wahl. Lou Sherman, Dar Moor, Frenchy DuBois, Jim Healy, Len Sutton, Bud England and others, to make tonight's field by far the largest and classiest of the season. Both Evans and Barkheimer are bay area hot-shots, and Reese, who was stationed at the Salem Army Air base during the war and who married a local girl, is listed in the top 10 midget pilots of the United Racing Association of Cal ifornia, which has over S00 mem bers. All of which should make the evening indeed v interesting for a gent named Bob Gregg who in his No. 25 buzz buggy has been hav ing things almost entirely his own way on the Salem and Portland ovals this season. Tired of seeing the Camas Cyclone sweep up all the marbles. Promoter Jimmy Ryan has lured the new threats to I the local bowl by changing the racing night from Saturdays to Wednesday?. Gregg was nosed out at Port land last week by Livingstone in a torrid race in which Rapid Robert had some expert driving to do to finish as well as he did His task is more than two-fold tonight.

S -4JP- Big Bill Petersen of Seattle pounded out a vicious technical knockout over Roy Hawkins of Portland here tonight after 43 seconds of the ninth round of a scheduled 15-rounder. The 200-pound Petersen had knocked down his 182-pound challenger for a 10-count in the second round. Jons, Nenof f In Mat Win "Tiger j Steve" Nenof f, alj the roughie-toughie operator he" was cracked tip to be, and Rowdy, Rule Jones, 4lespite taking a three stitch crack in his pate, nabbed the most important wins last night in the grappling party at the ar mory. Nenof f was just too much gladiatoi for Al Szasz in the reg ular mainer, and spilled Affable Al' two falls to one. In doing so, the big Russian made nothing but enemies of the clients. In the winner-take-all and any-thing-goes Jones -Jack Lipscomb grudge, Rufe finally butted Lips comb into submission, but only after somebody had cast a giant firecracker at the negro and some body elsje tiad conked him on the head,, (kitting it badly. Rufe thought he was shot when the cracker went off, but enough gen darmes, j hands upon their saps, were present to prevent mayhem of such qepth. In the prelims Gor dy Hesell dumped Salvadore Flores and Danno McDonald and Mike Casey went to a fall-apiece draw. State Tourney Semi Slated TORtLaND, Aug.

But Hawkins got to his feet and resumed the battle. The referee let the bout go on because of a disagreement on the count. In the fifth Hawkins clouted Petersen out of the ring and into the spectators' seats. He was lift ed back just at the bell. The sixth saw both fighters carry the fight until both were exhausted and slugging blindly in the center of the canvas Hawkins was badly cut up and unable to see during much of the seventh and eighth, but he stood off the Seattle slug ger until the ninth opened. Then, after Referee Ralph Gru man awarded Petersen the TKO, the punchy Portland slugger swung at Gruman and then at his own second, Roscoe Toles, who had come in the ring to help his fighter to his cornea. Earlier, Jack Snapp, 165, of Klamath Falls, and Bobby Ward, 164, of Los Angeles, lumbered through a dull exchange of blows that was classed as a draw by the referee and judges after the scheduled ten rounds.
