lSTho ktataamu Salem," OroaonV TursdayV April- 17,-1652 Goal Still Distant iit Softball Liglits Dfive 4m i -w mil - in- ii 't1 -- "' 1 Tgr " SAL TAORMINA STOCKTON, Cal. (Special) Who'll draw the pitching assign ment for the Senators' opener at Spokane next Tuesday night? Boss Hugh Luby says he's "almost sure" It will be Rawbone Ray McNulty, the stylist who won 14 times for the 1051 Salems and who is now officia'ly both pitcher and coach on the club. Ray is in top shape after being with the Sacramento Club almost a month prior to join ing the Senators at Calistoga, and in his last outing looked very good in checking Yakima with five hits in six Innings ... As the pitching staff how stands, the 1-2-3-4 mem bers appear to be McNulty, Sal DeGeorge, Ted Shandor and either Bob Collins or Larry Mann, both lefties. Holdover Curt Schmidt and Husky Ted Edmunds, the 210- pounder from Santa Barbara, could develop into starters later on. tJotn youngsters Jack Hemphill and Bud Francis have loads of stuff, but don't yet look polished enough to be other than second-liners on the staff. Luby is quite enthusiastic over the potentialities of the hurling corps and indexes it as "plenty strong. He will no doubt toss one of the top members at Silverton Sunday in the big exhibition rassle at McGinnis Field, as he has the suspicion that Mgr. Wally Flager & Co. will shoot the works in an effort to knock over the Senators. "We'll be taking our best shot at them too," promises the Salem skipper. Incidentally, chances are good that the Salems will aaata do their spring training at Calistoga next year. Luby likes the place immensely. The natives all but broke their necks In being hos pitable to the club in every way particularly so Alfred Tedeschl, wner of the Fior D IUlia Hotel where the squad headquartered. The ball park was kept In tip top shape for the workouts and gen eral Interest In the club was keen throughout the town. Were it not for the fact that the nights were simply too frigid, attendance at the games would have been very rood. Fact is, Luby is trying to talk the Sacramento clnb into tralninr at Caiistoca next sprint also, and may succeed. The Sacs weren't too pleased with Mod esto as a camp site this year . . . Lodigiani Still Has Plenty of Bounce Although he's been around the game as an active player for 18 years, new Yakima Manager Dario Lodigiani still has plenty of bounce both afield and at bat. He'll be a tough bombre to handle during the forthcoming season, you can bt. He plans to play regularly, but not at second base, his regular spot for so many years of Coast and Major league baseballing. "I expect to be our third baseman during the sea son," he was telling us the other night when the Yaks and Salems completed their two-game series at Calistoga. Luby and Lodigiani amount to a pair of the most illustrious sec ond sackers in the long history of the Coast League, incidentally. As for Lodigiani's ball club, it will be a toughle when the parent San Francisco Seals finish stocking It. The Yaks now have a fine catcher in Pat Donahue, a biggie; a good center fielder in a pretty good looking Negroe first sacker in Gene Howard, and of course Lodigiani. The pitching staff, headed by Ernie Domenlcelll, who hurled for the Seals most of last season, looks potent. Bill Stites. 29-game winner with El Paso last season, should be a dan dy in the WIL. Both Jack Thompson, a six foot, five lncher and Jim Albinl, another righthander, have good stuff. Toarmina to Bolster Yaks9 Hitting Corps The Yak are to get Jerry Zuzela (.286 for Yakima last season) back again from the Seals, along with Sal Taormina, a veteran left handed power hitter who was with the Seals last season. Some will recall that Taormina as a young prospect clouted a sizzling .327 for the 1942 Salem Senators, then on option from San Francisco also . . . Add another to the "We Like Lovellette" elub. UCLA Coach John Wooden was recently quoted as saying of the great Kansas basketball star, "He's better than Bob Kurland ever was and ex reeds even George Mikan's play when he was in college" . . . All borne games for the Los Angeles and Hollywood clubs are being televised this year. Each club is rettinf- $75,000 for the TV rights. In allowing- all games to be brought into the parlors of thousands j of homes, the Angels and Hollies head men feel tnat it win pro mote Interest in baseball as a whole, just as television has done in recent years for the wrestling game. Wrestling attendance in areas where TV holds forth Is still booming something terrific, whereas in the days before television the attendance for mat cards was only so-so . . . Seems that the Coast Conference can't beat the Big Ten even in the off-season. When the Pasadena Kiwanis Club auctioned off two footballs a few days ago. part of a beneit drive, the ball autographed by members of last Jan. l's Illinois grid team brought $61.00, while the oval endorsed by Stanford's players netted $35.10 . . . Our Senators may not turn out to be the best club in the WIL, bat they'll be the best equipped for travel. Of the 18 players now on the roster, 14 have their own automobiles with 'em . . . 1 J I V VAlvffinV i ill ,f i'l Noting the ground still to be covered toward the $350 goal in Salem softballdom's campaign for lights as Dusn iieia, uij virecior Jim uunit ingni) points on the chart to the approximate $1800 collected thus far in the drive, while Ed Handle (left), president of the Salem Softball Association, indicates the goal some $1750 away. Another rally meeting is set for room 109 of the senior high school tonight, 7:30 for latest report on the campaign. Handle urges all softballers to make an effort to be there.

(Special) -A ringing two-run triple in the ninth by big Ollie Anderson, the colored outfielder just in on option from San Diego, Wednesday night gave Salem's red hot Senators a 7-8 win over the Stockton Ports. In sweeping the two-game series with the Ports, Hugh Luby's Sol ons racked their seventh straight grapefruit win and their eighth in 1 1 starts. Anderson, who reported Tues day along with Hurler Sal De George, made a fine debut with the Senators as he also contribut ed a double to the Salem attack and knocked in a total of three runs. The Solons opened with four markers in the first frame off the Ports veteran righthander, Johnny Crocco. Luby led off with a walk and Anderson followed with his two-base blow. Outfield er Jim Deyo singled in the pair and after an error. Norm Grabar, filling in at first base though not signed to a contract, connected with a single good for another pair of runs. Powell Clouts Pair Stockton came back with a pair in its half of the first as Chuck Powell, the huge colored outfield er, slammed the first of his two homers for the night with a mate aboard. McNulty, not up to usual form, also was touched for a run in the third and then gave up two more in the fifth as Powell, run ning his circuit clout total to three in two nights, whammed one over the left field fence with one on. Rawbone Ray yielded another tal ly in the sixth before giving way to Lefty Larry Mann, who blank ed the foe the next two frames. Curt Schmidt toiled in the ninth and also held the Ports scoreless. Sa.lem picked up its fifth run of the night in the sixth as Deyo doubled and tallied on Pete Es trada's single. The game-clinching ninth for the Solons started when Glenn Tuckett walked. Luby, back in his second base slot, was safe on an error and after Tom Galli skied out Anderson belted his long triple to left to provide the margin. The drive came off Ben Scott, replacement for Crocco in the sixth. Tanselli Out Shortstop Gene Tanselli passed up the tilt because of a pulled groin muscle suffered in the Tues day game. He will be given a cou ple days rest. . . . The Solons still are in the market for a first sack er. Luby hopes that some of his contacts will pay off in this re gard. The Salems, swinging farther north, battle the Chico All-Stars Thursday night and Friday eve ning its the Redding Club of the Far West loop.

Chicago' stadium Wednesday night. Roblnsdn, .who weighed 157 Vi, elected to slug it out toe -to-toe from the outset of the fierce scrap and ended it with incredible swift ness after Graziano himself had floored the champion midway in the third. - Seconds . after Graziano had belted Robinson to the floor along the ropes with a ponderous right hand smash to the head, Robinson unleashed a "lightning quick left- right combination which felled Graziano like a ton of bricks. Rocky Restrained Graziano, counted out by Ref eree Tommy Gilmore, by game instinct struggled to his feet and with helpless waving fists tried to continue the battle. He was re strained by Gilmore.
