"Kid Hatthews has turned down
three fightoffers, but not through
any reluctance to swap swats with

Jack Hurley, manager of the
northwest's leading light-heavyweight,
said the offers all con

for the fight hero still is to be

Thursday night with one game,
with the Salems now owning a 2-
1 edge in the set
Tlerney. in racking his eighth
win against two setbacks, was
somewhat on the wild side as he
walked seven, but the Tigers
couldn't get the hits to capitalize
on the free passes. Their lone tally,
in the third, came without benefit
of a base blow. - .
The Senators struck for both
their tallies In the fourth Inning
off the offerings of Tacoma'a Don
Carter, who was nicked for nine
hits over the route. Orrin Snyder
started things in the fourth by lin
ing a single Into left field. Mel
Wasley. then followed with. a
smash Into center good for two
bases and Snyder stopped at third.
Bob Cherry's ground-out register
ed Snyder and Wasley romped
over the dish with what eventual
ly proved to be the winner when
Catcher Bus McMillan belted s
long triple into left center.
The sole Tigers .score in the
third was helped by an error Tler
ney himself committed. The Sa
lem twirler walked Jack Carter
and when Bache, the next .hitter,
grounded to the mound Tierney
threw badly on an attempted force
at second. Another walk filled the
sacks, but Bob Fischer then hit In

Death Penalty
Asked ih Rape,
Death of WAF
SAN FRANCISCO; May 31-
The government today asked the
death penalty for Sgt. Lyle H.
BuswelL accused of the Hamilton
Field rape-slaying of WAF Sgt
Fairy E. Decker. There indications
the case would go to the Jury tomorrow.
In his closing argument today,
U. S. Attorney Frank Hennessy
f asked for the full penalty the law
provides and noted that a slaying
during the course of rape ar at
tempted rape j constituted murder
In the first degree.
Hennessy called the slaying
"one of the most atrocious crimes
In the history of this court". . . a
vicious, cruel and wicked crime in
which a 43-year-old woman with
a modest 16b in the army . .
had been seized, strangled, the
clothes torn from her body.
ravished and left lying in the
grass. - - : -
The prosecutor said the govern
ment had introduced evidence to
prove the Rutland, Vt, soldier
guilty of "this heinous offense.
Sgt. Decker,' was found lying
outside the orderly- room in the
early morning last March 25, most
of her clothes In a disarrayed heap
beside her. .
The defense, in as yet incom
plete arguments, said it was a
crime of "passion" that It con
cedes Buswell caused the woman's
death but that It resulted after
consent relations; that it was man
slaughter not murder. ;
