Bill Greene Hopes
To Have 3 Brave
Players for Game
The Harlem Globetrotters, fast
becoming a challenge for the Kan
sas City Monarchs as the most
talented Negro barnstorming base
ball club, will invade Civic Sta
dium Thursday night for an exhi
bition game against Bill Greene's
Cascade League All-Stars.
Greene, who piloted the Stars
to a recent 11-10 victory over the
House of David, plans to field an
even stronger club than previous
ly and hopes to have Woody Sal
mon behind the plate, Wally Fla-
ger at short and Al Lightner in
the outfield. All are member of
the Snellstrom Braves. Don
Kirich will be on second, Johnny
Dunn on third and Dick Bartel on
first to form one of the best de
fensive Infields possible.
The All-Stars will need a strong
lineup, and Greene hopes to have

Trade Deadline Near
Between Friday and the open
ing second-halt game next Sunday
will be the deadline for player
trades or transfers. League rules
prohibit a player now eligible on
one of the rosters shift from one
team to another after the start of
the second half.
It was rumored that the Lum
bermen are expected to add bat
ting strength to their lineup Sun
day by shifting Johnny Bubalo
from the outfield to first base in
place of Russ Loafman and send
ing either Lou Kotnik, a .300 hit
ter, or Jack Whipple, former Seat
tle Coast-Leaguer, into right field.
Kotnik is the only Lumberman
batting over .300. Outfielders Bill
Carney and Bill Hamel ar hitting
.295 and .292, respectively. .
Manager Ray Miller Is expected
to send Vince Pesky, righthanded
speedballer, to the hill against the
slugging Braves. The brother of
Boston's Johnny Pesky has recov
ered from a finger blister and la
ready for action.
Woody Salmon Top Hitter
Bill Hanauska. another talented
righthander, will be seeking his
fifth straight victory when he
takes Manager Al Lightner's call
to the hill. He will have one of the

behind him, and a lineup that In

Catcher Woody Salmon with a
.407 batting average, Flrstbaseman
Busher Smith .345. and Vern Rey
nolds .333. Four others are batting
over .250.
The two ace pitchers may al

Although Pesky has worked only
four and one-third Innings with
out a decision, his earned-run av
erage is a presentable 2.08 runs
per nine Innings. Hanauska has
an average of 2.40. having worked
25 innings in five games.

In the Northern part of the cir

in first place, still undefeated,
thanks mainly to the fine hurling
of Brightwell. who is Just back
from the service. In a non-league
contest, he stopped Giustina cold
last week with no hits, and struck
out 17. He will probably be on
the mound Sunday when the Car
