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

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

would be another thing, again.
. . . Oliver,: or no Oliver, the

of the meet. . . . Speaking of

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

be devastatlngly hoi at times.

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

something to say abeut that....
Mr. Consistency: That's Bob

for a 10-count in the second round.

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.
