" Grabar Homes; Lew Saves Mix Wilkie Tires in Ninth ; Second Game Tonight By AI Lishlner The brand spankin new and home owned Salem Senators got off to a flying start last night at Waters field as they upended the Tri-City Braves 9 6 In the 1951 Western International league op ener. A crowd of slightly less than 4500 took In the commencer des pite frigid weather, missing by less than 300 admissions of breaking the all-time opening night record of 4750 here. The large gathering, which must have included most of the 832 folks who now own the Solons, was treated to some lusty hitting by Hugh LubyYclan, a rousing home run by Norm Grabar, a snappy hurling stint by Lefty Aldon Wilkie for eight frames, a still snappier relief job by Ludwig Lew and a w thoroughly enjoyable Victory over Lou McCollum, an elongated gent who has taken much delight In 'subduing Salem teams with ease the past three seasons. Wilkie breezed through the enemy for eight-plus innings, yielding but five hits and two un earned runs before he tired and 'became wild. His first successor, Johnny Burak, had no luck at all, and. before Lew was called in to take over three runs were scored. Lefty Ludwig retired the side In 1-3-3 order, however, to capture the victory for the Newberg south paw. . Salem was ahead 9-2 when the Braves broke loose with their late rally. Apparently anxious to show the home folks that they do possess plenty of potential runs in their makeup, the Solons banged Mc Collum for single tallies in each rf th first four innines. two more in the sixth and three in the eighth, all on 11 hits, five Mc Collum walks and three Tri-City errors. An error and singles by Grabar and George McDonald brought in the first run of the campaign. Glenn Tuckett's first of two dou bles for the game, followed by Bill Beard's single and Wilkie's line out to left field, netted No. 2. Grabar leveled off on a McCollum .curve in the third and drove it farover the Chadwick hotel ad in right field for the third run, and Tuckett's second double, fol lowed, by Beard's single accounted for the fourth. , A walk. Beard's single and an error by McCollum himself on a wild throw to third base after Wilkie bunted were worth the two runs in the s ixth. In the eighth Wilkie's single to center, a walk, Mgr. Luby's line single to left, another error and McDonald's sharp, single to right netted the final tallies for the resident nine. Tri-caty picked up two un earned runs off Wilkie in the seventh on an error, three walks and a ground-out. Other than get ting tired in the final frame, the only- thing wrong with Wilkie's makeup for the opener was his control. He walked nine before he - was taken out. But all is quite pardonable for the former Bucco. His spring training amounted to Just about one week in all, during which he pitched four innings against Stockton last Saturday. He did an amazing job last night for the amount of work he has had. Most of the prize booty put up lor the opener by Salem mer chants was taken home by Gra bar and McDonald. Both won around $100 worth of the loot. ' Of the 11 Salem hits Beard biffed three and Tuckett, Mc Donald and Grabar two each. Buddy Peterson and Neil Bryant each had a pair of the seven blows the Braves collected. Things looked bad when Lew took over in the ninth. Five runs were in, no one was out and two runners were aboard. Ludwig got Bui Edelstein on a ground-out, however, on which one run scor ed. He then got Pinch-hitter Artie Wilson and Leadoffer Al Spaeter on hoppers to Third-baseman Glenn Tuckett to retire the side. Not yet in shape. Outfielder Glenn . Stetter didn't ? play last night Pitcher Ray McNulty, ob tained with Stetter from Spokant for Mel Wasley, should check in to town today. . Second game of the series to night will find Dick Stone of Tri City opposing Jerry Barta of the Sal ems, both righthanders. The series will end with Sunday's doubleheader at 1:30 o clock.

Against 'Deep servation The publisher of The Statesman called for a balance between pre servation and use of forests, streams, soil; for some consolida tion of agencies to overcome con flicts among government agencies and; with private interests; for an impartial board of review to pass on necessity, value and timing of resource development projects. The preservation of the state's beauty and value is a challenge to all residents, he added, praising the IWLA for helping to lead the way.

NEW -YORK, April 20-(ip-Th pennant stock of the Boston Red Sox sunk to a new low today as the Philadelphia Athletics spiked th Bostonians' guns, 6-3, in their own Fenway Park lair. f I Philadelphia's triumph is the highlight of th young season. Th victory not only is Philadelphia's first, over the highly regarded Red Sox in more than two years in Boston, but it also was authored by Alex Kellner, a lefthander. j Rare, Indeed, are the occasions when a lefthander goes the rout against the powerful Red Sox and beats them in Fenway Park. This odd event occurred only twice last year, once each by Hal Newhouser of Detroit and Gene Bearden of Washington. - . . Kellner muzzled the Red Sox on four hits in spoiling the Sox home opener. A crowd of 11,461 turned out to see Boston lose its third straight without a win. -;. The Washington Senators took undisputed possession of first plac in the American league by winning both ends of a day-night double header from the New York Yankees, 5-3. and 8-4. The Senators hav won four in a row without ar setback. j Cuban Sandalio Consuergra turned back th Yanks in the day game as Washington belatedly opened its home season before 27,331 fans including President Harry Truman. The same was n nlavnff of Monday's scheduled opener. j - . - tj ' Lefty Al Sima scattered 10 hits In the night game "attended by 15,553 in outpitching the Yanks rookie flash Tom Morgan. Mickey Vernon drove in four runs on a triple, double and pair of singles. President Truman got booed twice when he entered the presi dential box, and again in the eighth Inning when it was announced that no one was to leave the field until the president had gone. The Senators collected only two hits off five Yankee pitchers but 13 bases on balls ruined the Yanks. Starter Tommy Byrne granted eight walks in less than four inning and Bob Muncrief forced in a run with three walks in the fourth after relieving Byrne. h The amazing Chicago White Sox and the Cleveland Indians roll ed to their third consecutive victories of the season. The; Sox, behind Randy Gumpert, upset the Detroit Tigers, 5-0, before 8,731 opening day fans in Chicago. Veteran Bob Feller turned back the inept St. Louis Browns, 4-1, before 48,316 inaugural fans in Cleveland.- Gumpert stifled the Tigers with three singles and drove home two runs. The Sox sewed it up with three runs In the third with the help of three Tiger errors and the wildness of Bengal pitcher iTed Gray. Feller scattered five hits, fanned eight, and walked five in down ing the Browns. The Indians wrapped it up with four runs in the sec ond on five walks, a single, double and error. Pinch-hitter Hank Arft homered for the lone St. Louis run in the ninth i Opening day was a sad affair for the New York Giants apd th Philadelphia Phils. The Brooklyn Dodgers spoiled the day for' 30,870 fans at the polo grounds by beating the Giants, 7-3. The Boston Bra ves downed the Phils, 2-1, before 17,423 fans in Philadelphia. Newcombe stopped the Giants on five hits and won out in th fifth when the Brooks scored four runs, of which only one was earn ed. ' 1- Max Surkont, sophomore righthander up from the Pacific Coast league, tamed the Phils on two safeties and drove home the winning Boston run with a fly balL The lone Phil run was unearned. Gerry Staley pitched a strong nine-hitter as the St Louis Cardi nals marked their initial home appearance by beating' the Chicago Cubs, 5-1, in night game. The Cards collected only seven hits includ ing a home run by Joe Garaglola. Three hits and. two walks account ed for lour Card runs and the ball game in the fifth. Robinson Says NEW YORK.
