n Oknn o) b o n n n aft life mil nno n n r-; Bellotti Bunt Wins Nightcap Briggs Faces T-Gty In Series Windup By AL LIGIITNER Statesman Sports Editor The Salem Senators bounced back from a win -streak ending 6-1 setback in last night's Waters Field doubleheader with the Tri City Braves to cop the nightcap, on a daring and spectacular ninth inning bunt, by a 3-2 score. Shortstop Carl Bellotti, at bat with the sacks jammed and one LUBY SIGNS LUBY Dennis Luby. hard-hitting catch er and infielder who has been with the now defunct Calgary Stampe ders, has been signed by the Sen ators and will join the club at Tri City this weekend. Luby is the property of the Cleveland Indians and comes on option through that organization. He is also the nephew of Manager Hugh Luby of the Solon s. Latest WIL averages show Dennis Luby hitting .301, with nine homers. out in the ninth, gambled with a two -strikes count on him and pushed down the run-scoring and game-winning bunt It scored Jim my Deyo, who had opened the rally with a single, and Deyo was safe by an eyelash at the plate. Even though their four-game rictory string was broken in the opener when Jess Dobernio fli'p "ped a three-hitter, the Senators went 2-1 ahead in the series by virtue of their nightcap nod. They'll close out the series to night in a 7:30 o'clock single clash, same being the annual Sa lem Elks Club "Night" Of particular note, young John ny Briggs, the WI league's strike out champ to date, will be after his 10th conquest of the cam paign. Mgr. Edo Vanni of the Braves has not announced his starter. It was simply too much Dober nic in the seven-inning opener last night The veteran righthan-' der gave Gene T a n s e 1 1 i his eighth home run in the first in ning, over the right field wait but that was about all for the entire game even in the matter of safeties. Connie Peret got a first inning single and Tanselli singled to cemer in me iuuuu. , That was it Salem had a big chance in the fourth, filling Uje bases with no- body out But the next three i swingers went down on short and j easv flies to the outfield. fri-City started out with a bang In the first with five big runs, most at Lefty Tom Del Sarto's expense. Bob McGuire and Vic Buecola drilled out hits and moved up on a sacrifice. Artie Wilson walked to fill the bases. Jack Warren grounded to Tanselli and Gene threw to the plate for what might have been the start of an inning nriin? donble nlav. But usually reliable Floyd Og den dropped the ball and the flood-gates opened. Bob Moniz and Terry Carroll got hits, driving Del Sarto out and Jimmy Deyo made a couple of miscues in center-field smack in the midst of the upris ing. Larry Borst was sent in to stop the surge, and did just that He also got by the next four innings before leaving foe. a pinchhitter, but Salem could do nothing with Dobernic'f control pitching. Jose Rayle was nicked for "an unearned run in the sixth, on an other Salem bobble, and for the game the Solons made five of the miscues. The second game saw the Salems go 1-0 ahead in the first when Dale Bloom, rangy enemy righthanded wild pitched in BeP lotti. who had earlier gained life on an error and moved around on stolen base and an infield out. -Tri-City went 2-1 ahead in the sixth, knocking Starter Gene John son out and again bringing on Rayle. " . . The dangerous Buecola, enjoying himself quite a hitting series, opened with a single, Advanced on an error and scored on ' Wilson's single. When Catcher Rube John son doubled m Wuson, boss Mugn Luby waved for Rayle. Jose did his chores well and tipped on by the Braves the rest of the way. Salem tied it in the seventh off Lefty Carl Lemiex, who earlier succeeded Bloom and pitched brilliantly for five innings, even though he wild pitched in Bellot ti again after Carl had singled and rambled to third on Mel Krause's safety. In the ninth it was Deyo's open ing single, a sacrifice, a political pass to Ogden and Rayle's infield single to first base, fielded okeh by Buecola with a, spectacular play, hut finding -no one covering the bag. Don Robertson had been called in by Vanni to replace Lemieux and was guilty of the mental er ror. This loaded the bases and brought up Bellotti. Robertson got two strikes on him. and positively no one figured Rookie Carl would dare try a squeeze. But he did, and it worked. Third-baseman Car roll was fast to nab the bouncer and try for the plate, but it was a fraction late.

(JP) The Oakland Acorns scored five runs on a pair of hits in the sixth inning to trim the Portland Beavers 5-3 in a Pacific Coast League game here Wednesday night Portland bounced back with home runs in the next two innings. Brenner Beats Yakima Bears Manager Bill Brenner of the Vancouver Caps stopped any ideas the Yakima Bears might have had of cutting the Capilano Western International League lead to two games last night when he hurled his loop-pacers to a 6-0 vktory over the Bears at Yakima. Needless to say, the win push ed the Caps four f ull games ahead of the aspiring Bears. Brenner and his knuckler checked the Bears without a hit for five innings. Vancouver got four runs in the third on hits by Nick Pesut, K. Caorlton and Dick Greco, sandwiched around two walks, an error and a sacrifice fly- The Lewiston Broncs took a 10 3 victory over Victoria, getting four runs in the first on four walks, a single and Clint Camer on's double. Dean Kime pitched the win. Edmonton handed the Wenat chee Chiefs their fifth straight loss, a 10-5 drubbing at Wenat chee. Don Gigli and Bob Brown hit long homers for the Eskimos.

But Dave Jolly replaced ! Jim Wilson and retired the side . while the baserunners waited in vain. The victory was the fourth of the j season for Wilson, who hasn't been whipped, and his second since he pitched the major leagues' only no hitter so far this year. Home runs by Joe Adcock. Andy Pafko and Del Crandall accounted for four of the five Milwaukee runs. Brooklyn took advantage of the Giants' lapse to cut the New York ers' first place margin to a single game. The Dodgers whipped Cin cinnati 6-3 with Duke Snider driv ing in four runs. Don Newcombe posted his fifth victory and his sec ond straight complete game. Harvey Haddix of the S.

Lemon's victory was his ninth against four losses. Bob Porterfield had pitched 12 successive complete games but he couldn't .survive the first inning against the White Sox. They bat tered him for five runs only to waste the advantage and find themselves tied 6-6 in the fifth after a two-run triple by Tom Umphlett. The winning runs scored on a pinch single by Sherm Lol lar in the sixth. Gil McDougald broke put of a prolonged batting slump with three doubles and a single, good for four runs, as the Yankees whipped Detroit.
