Tigs Win 15-lnning Game
To Drop Senators to Fifth
Tacoma, Wash., June 22 The Tacoma Tigers and the Salem
Senators battled it out over the lS-inning route Tuesday night
and when it was all over some 34 hours after it started, Ray
Fortier, a left-handed chucker, had bested Ray McNulty, Salem's
control artist, 4-3.
But to give McNulty credit for
his achievements, it should be
noted that he was not entirely
responsible for the Tigers' win
ning run, a tally that came after
two were out. The inning went
something like this:
Gordon Jones was a strikeout
victim and Glenn S t e 1 1 e r
grounded weakly to McNulty
who threw him out to Krug.
Then Eddie Barr, with the count
one and three, singled through
the mound. Wayne Peterson
knocked it down but didn't have
time to make a play at first. In
an effort to pick Barr off first,
McNulty threw twice to first. On
the second attempt his throw was
low and the ball got past Krug
with Barr going to second. Jerry
Ballard hit the first pitch
through Hank Sciarra's legs and
Barr, a fast runner, scored.
McNulty, not as steady as
usual, walked eight during the
elongated contest. He managed
retire the side in the first and
Jiecond although the Tigers
threatened in both instances.
Doubles by Stetter and Ballard
and successive walks to Al
Spaeter and Al Cohen were good
for two Tacoma tallies in the
third.
The Senators tied it in the
sixth. Wayne Peterson beat out
a bunt and scored when Jack
Warren overthrew first on Larry
Orteig's slow roller down first.
Orteig went to third on the
catcher's two base error, and
scored a moment later while Bob
Cherry was being thrown out.
A walk to Dick Greco, an error
by McNulty and a hit batter fill
ed the bases with one out in the
13th but the Tigers couldn't
score.
The Senators went out in front
by a single run in the 14th
when Cherry was walked, went
to second on Bob Hedington's
sacrifice bunt and came in easily
on Marty Krug's double. i

The Tigers immediately tied it
up when, with the bases loaded,
Dick Greco was walked, prob
ably on the theory that one run
was to be preferred over a quar
tet of tallies.
Bud Peterson took an early
shower for the third time within
a week when Umpire Nenezich
booted the Salem shortstop for
too vigorously protesting a close
decision at second. Hank Sciarra
replaced him.
The loss, coupled with Wenat
chee's 9 to 4 win over Victoria,
shoved the Senators down into
the second division. Vancouver
edged Spokane 5-4. while Yaki
ma was thumping Bremerton 16
to 3.

Closely Matched Battle
Predicted for Title Go
. Chicago, June 22 W Jersey Joe Walcott, fighting 35-year-old
father of lix children, and Ezzard Charles, a belting bachelor of
180 pounds, battle for the world heavyweight boxing title (NBA
version) at Comiskey park tonight at 7:30 p.m. (PDST).
1 he crowd, like the choice of fighters, was a take-your pick
proposition wun arouna n.uuuj
the best guess. The weather-l in.
AiDina vereats
Alcos by Homer
man, however, promised clear,
cool weather to perk up general
admission sales.
The two Negro contenders to
retired Joe Louis' vacated crown
were to weigh in at noon (EST)
at Chicago stadium. Wolcott,
the acting but clever clouter
from Camden, N. J., was ex
pected to scale 194. That would
give him an approximate 15
pound weight pull if Cincinnati's
27-year-old Charles came In at
a likely 179.
It was exactly 12 years ago
tonight in Comiskey park that
Louis sledge - hammered the
heavyweight crown off the scar
red brow of James J. Braddock.
Louis retired as undefeated
champion last March.
As time for the 15-round af
fair neared, the eight-years-younger
Charles was a dwind
ling 10 to 13 favorite. Appar
ently the gamblers, like the
fight writers, were beginning to
minimize Ezzy's age advantage
in the fact of Walcott's 130-pro
bout experience and two agile
performances against then-champion
Louis.

Portland Beavers are getting
nearer a start on construction
of their new ball park in south
east Portland.

gan said in a speech before a
