Chiefs Cop Finale; Myers Hits 5
Br Al
Statesman
The pitching heroes of last Saturday's 23-inning win at Victoria
got their comeuppance last night at Waters field as both Lefty Lud
wig Lew and Joe Mishasek' were clobbered by the Wenatchee Chiefs
for a 9 to 7 series-ending win. baaiy enougn we poteni unieis, a
much better ball club than their perch in the .standings indicates, cop
ced the nod with four runs in the ninth ironing, knocking stiff the
earlier feeling that the Salems were well on! their way to their sixth
Visiblv weakening as he prog
ressed into the late innings. Lew
-yielded to Mishasek with one out
in the ninth and two runnersi
aboard as a result of walks. Mish
asek got another enemy batter out
but then walked one himself, load
ing the sacks, and followed this
by serving up singles to Bud Hj el
maa and Lvle Palmer, each scor
ing two runs. Mishasek's inability
to get his "stuff pitches over the
nlate forced him to groove the
pitches Hjelmaa and Palmer hit.
Proving again they aren't mud
ders- the Salems saw their five-
game win binge dashed into the
slippery greensward Of the :- ball
yard. Rain fell throughout the con-
. .. . i ;il 11..

way things turned out, made the
gathering of 591 wish it never had
been played. This makes the third
game the Solons have tried in the
goo here, and they've lost all three.
The first two came when Tacoma
was here April 29
For eight innings last night it
appeared that all was to be okeh,
however. Hugh Luby's gang busted
into the veteran Charley Gasso-
way for three runs in the third and
two more in the fourth for a 5-1
lead. The Chiefs had tallied once
lr the third
Wenatchee brought three more
runs across in the fifth on a walk
and four hits, but again Salem
erased this sting with two tallies in
the eighth for a 7-5 bulge.
Lew wasnup to his challenge,
however, and when he walked both
Larry Neal and Lai Arnencn witn
one out in the ninth he was lifted.
Even though Gassoway wound
up with the win, he hardly de
served it. He was belted for 13
" hits and issued five walks himself.
The lefty vet who pitched the Coast
league opener for Oakland this
season wasn't around at the end.
iHe went out for a pinch-hitter in
I the Chiefs' ninth, and the pert
Tommy Breisinger finished up to
save the victory. .,.
A combination of two'walks, two
infield errors and Richie Myers hit
brought in the three Salem runs
in the third. Singles by Glenn
Tuckett, Jim McKeegan, Myers and
Boss Luby produced the two res
ident tallies of the fourth. Then in
the eighth walks to Tuckett and
Lew, followed by singles by Myers
and Luby netted the final two Sol
on runs. i -
Myers had himself quite a night.
.He handled 10 fielding chances
i perfectly and banged out five
straight hits, one a double against
the distant left field fence. But
while Myers and his mates were
slamming the ball with glee off
Gassoway, the Salem pitching that
had been so terrific in the pre
vious five games went kaput. The
Chiefs rapped out 11 safeties, five
in the last three innings. When
they scored in the third off Lew it
was the first run he had given up
in 17 innings.
Glenn Stetter was back in the
Salem lineup after two days off be
cause of flu, and in his first trip
at bat slashed a hard single to left.
He hit another Gassoway pitch on
the nose, but Palmer caught the
try while backed against the left
field wall. . . The Solons departed
immediately following the game
and play in Spokane tonight. Ray
McNulty will be on the mound in
an attempt to start another win
streak. . . Last night's attendance,
brutally butchered by the rain,
brings the season total to 16,239.

laurels and district 7 berths in the
coming state meet as ' the annual
district cinder show was run off
at McCuiloch field Thursday aft
ernoon and evening. f
The Vikings,' Who snared nine
first places and split another in
addition to winning the relay
event, qualified 14 men and the
relay team for the state tourney
as they piled' up a terrific 223
points in the Class A division.
Gervais, which totalled 206 points
to second-place Jefferson's 86,
placed nine athletes plus the re
lay unit In the looming State B
show.
Stayton's Eagles were No. 2 in
the Class A division with 65, fol
lowed by Woodburn with 47 Vi ,
Cascade and Sacred Heart with
36 each, Molalla with 32, Silver-
ton with 11 and North Marion

three positions and Sacred Heart
and Cascade put in a pair each.

A record set up by Ron Runyan
of Salem in 1942. The Viks' Buzz
Covalt came out the victor in both
the 880 and 440. I
Running the half-mile, Covalt
staged one of the thrilling gal
lops of the night with Adains be
fore barely edging his teammate
at the wire. Buzz's 800 time of
2:03.5 was close to the mark of
2:01.2 set up by Salem's Bill Shinn
in 1940. In addition, Covalt, run-
ning the 440 lor the first time
this season, turned in a very good
52.5 to take that one
Al Bello, expected to keep up
with Covalt in this one, couldn't
cope with the Vik star's final kick
and finished second.
Clayton Seaton of Woodburn
chalked a smart 170' 2 inches
in winning the javelin and other
good marks were hit by Bruce
Mathis in taking the high hurdles
in :16.4 and the highs in :22.3;
Don McKenzie of Salem with- a
20' Vxn broad jump and the Vik
relayers who hit a 1:36.6 lime

Neil Brown of Jeff tied the high
iumo mark with 5 5" efforts.
Uniaue feature or the A acuon

Giant player, was ! banned from
organized baseball for jumping to
the Mexican league, He sued for
re-ins tatement and won in the U.
circuit court of appeals, which
said the reserve system amounted
to a form of peonage. However,
the case was settled out of court
before it reached the supreme
court. . . . - ;
Celler doesn't go along with
the peonage idea, but said it was
to the interests of all concerned!
"to have the matter resolved
whether the reserve (clause should
be banned, or whether baseball
should be exempted from the anti
trust laws." i
If baseball should be exemoted
from the anti-trust laws, it would
be a feather in the leap of Chan
dler, who has been; voted out of
office by the owners. He has steer
ed baseball clear of many threat
ened anti-trust actions in the past.

Walker Action
Starts Today
BIRKDALE, England, May 10-
(A)-The American Walker cup golf
team played Itself into top form
today with final practices and went
to bed confident It will at least
split tomorrow's foursomes and
might sweep all four contests.'
Icy wind and rain which had
swept the course most of the week
gave way to sunshine, mild tern
peratures and a gerltle breeze. The
British, fearing they might be four
down by tomorrow night, spoke
unhappily olihe change to "Amer
ican weather." . , ; ,
; '' British Skipper Raymond Op
penheimer, who is not playing on
the team, offered no predictions.
He would only say "we shall do
our best and hope it will be good
enough." -
SntUe lakes are fair. Metollus river
reports show limit catches in the
fly area, however, fishing baa been
difficult. Crescent lake is poor.
Deschutes river above Bend is
good for spinning outfits. Little
Deschutes has provided many limit
catches on wobble rite lures. Water
is still high on Crescent, Big Marsh,
and Miller creeks. limit catches
reported on Big Marsh creek.

two bottom teams won and the two

between first and last to a mera
five games. j
New York's : resurging Giants,
made it nine wins In their last ,11
games today, defeating the flu-"
riddled St. Louis Cardinals, 3-2 to '
sweep the three-game series. New ,
York's victory skeinj following n
the heels of Its horrendous 11-game
losing streak, moved the seventh
placers only four games behind the '
pace-setting Boston Braves.
The Braves fell afoul of Ewn
BlackweU who pitched the last
place Cincinnati Reds to a 4-1
triumph. Thus their; lead was cut
to only one game over the Brook,
lyn Dodgers who whipped the Chi
?agoCubsJ ndj vaulted past
tn Cards into the runner-up spot
Pittsburgh also passed the Cards,
sweeping into third! place with a
iv-,triumJh ovear Philadelphia
Kills. The defending champions
are now in fifth place, three games
behind the leaders and two out cf
the reaches of the basement.
A two-run homer by Hank
Thompson in the first inning and
a run-producing single by Ray
Noble in the third finished the
Giants with all their runs off right
hander Tom Pholsky. The 21-year-old
Rookie went all the way
toj suffer his second loss against
two victories.
