M-7 a 9 Waste 3-Run 'Sockless' Salems Rap Out 16 Bingles v By Al Llg htner -Statesman Sports Editor The absence of sock within the Calem Senator ranks of late may be the big reason for the club's slide down the Western Interna tional league standings ladder. But you'd have never believed it last night at Waters field. ! The Salems unbuckled some of the best base-hitting wrath they've exhibited this season, banged out 16 of 'the precious things and c.t.m rnnl Maharer George Emit h announced Tuesday, after returnlnr from the league meet ing In Taeoma and a confab with Outfielder Edo Vanni tna nego tiatinna tn land the slayer sas mii h Victoria Mare still In the fire."

He too was recently released by the Athletics. spilled the Vancouver Caps 11 to 7 in the rain-spattered series opener. Mgr. Ad Liska's lads looked like anything but the bat ting anemics they've been the past few weeks and sprayed base knocks all over the premises. One of same went beyond the spacious yard in the form of Mambone Mel Wasley's fifth home run of the season, a three-run poke in the fourth inning that sent the Solons r,n their merry way. ' Their lineup back in what Liska considers first-line form again with the return of injured Wally (Chief) Scott to his shortstop "slot and 'Hurryin' Hal" Zurcher to the outfield for his initial game after being recalled from Stock ton, the Salems commenced as if they were to be blown out oimc park by Bill Brenner s visitors. Vancouver started into Rawbone Ray McNulty in the first heat like thovM heen waiting for him ever since he licked 'em 9-3 last week at Vancouver. Jim Robinson sin eled and Red. Clarkson tripled in bantf-ban order, and Clarkson all the way around when McNulty threw wildly himself trvinir to nail him at third base on a relay throw. Then both Len Tran and Dick Sinovic biffed scratchy singles to continue giving Ray a bad time or it. Th free-wheelinz curve bailer got out with oftly the two runs against him, and then after serv ing up a home run blast.to Clark son in the third inning, Ray set tled down for five consecutive scoreless frames. The 3-0 Caps lead looked aw fully big with George Nicholas ' protecting it in good shape the first three frames he toiled. But it just wasn't to be for Nick one f the better flingers in the league. Wasley started his downfall and the Solon glee in the fourth with a solid single to center. Bob Cher ry -then dented the distant loft field wall with a double and ono out later Bill Beard rifled a slnglo to-left These two tallies put Salem back in the rassle." Wally Scott's walk and Dick Bartle's single to left set the table for Hambone In the fifth. Ho skied a low, inside Nicholas pitch toward the right field jwall, and even though tho ball wasn't bit ' solidly . it was mastered hard nough to put Salem ahead 5-3. Beard's ' double. a walk. Gene Gaviglio's single and another bln gle by Bartle chased three more tallies across in the sixth and sent Nicholas to the dugout His successor Kevin King got a three- ' run outburst rammed at him in tho eighth on corrective hits by Gaviglio, Scott, Bartle, and Was ley, plus Cherry's single off Bob Brunner, third Caps pitcher. McNulty faltered badly in tho ninth by walking three and giv ing three hits for four Vancouver runs. But by then Ray was feel ing little pain and could afford to bo generous, it was Kay s sec ond straight win.. ! The threatening weather knock ed, off tho attendance brutally, as only 471 paid, showed up. Most of them had to scurry for cover In the fourth .when a rain squall Belted the arena. , ' Both Bartle and Wasley, each .with four hits, led the parade for Salem. Of the 10 hits McNulty. gave, Clarkson had three Includ ing his triple and homer. For tonight's second game it will be Johnny Tierney 'for Sa - lem, after his 12th victory, against Bob Snyder of the vans.
