No one could expect a fellow who has ridden the bench tor&
half a season to have perfect control and that was the case of
pal Mclrvin, redheaded, left-handed chucker who returned to
the Salem Senators in a trade that sent Ray McNulty to the
Portland Beavers.
. Cal Indicated he wanted work
and Manager Bill Beard accom
modated him by sending him
out against the Wenatchee
Chiefs Tuesday night as the two
clubs opened a series of three
games. His wildness (10 walks
and four wild pitches) was re
sponsible for the only tally the
Chiefs could manage as the Sen
ators won in 11 innings 2 to 1.;
thinks to a home run over ine
light field fence by Wayne Pe
terson. The blow, so near the
base line that there was doubt
as to whether it would be foul
or fair until it disappeared in
the darkness high over the bar
rier, came as the last' half of
the 11th - opened. There could
have been no more fitting cli
max to a tight struggle and the
1146 customers went home well
satisfied.
; The loss was . charged up
igKnst Lou McCollum, a right
haMled flinger who previously
had, had little difficulty in hand
eiMtfing the Senators this season.
He was hit freely and the So
lons had men on base in every
frame except the fifth and 10th
as they collected an even dozen
blows.
Four eonsecutive walks in the
second gave the Chiefs their
run. With the bases still loaded
Mclrvin fanned Lee Winter and
forced McCollum to ground into
a double play. Three bases on
balls filled the bags again in
the fourth with two out but the
Chiefs, able to get but four hits
off Mclrvin, were retired when
Clyde Haskell flew out. A sin
gle, a walk and a wild pitch
placed runners on second and
third in the sixth but again Has
kell produced the third Out as
he grounded to Wayne Peterson.
Cal gained control as the in
nings unwound and he retired
the side in order in the 10th
and 11th.
; Unable to hit In the clutch
the Senators were kept from
scoring through six Innings as
McCollum- bore down when the
situation grew threatening. But
when Roy Carlson opened the
seventh with a double off the
left field boards, fans felt the
time had come and their belief
wag justified even though Mc
lrvin and Wayne Peterson were
easy outs on successive pop-ups.
Carlson galloped home a mo
ment later as Marty Krug drove
a single just out of Hal Rhyne's
reach at first.
. That ended the scoring "on
both sides until Wayne Peterson
came through with his circuit
smash his sixth of the season.
Coast Leaguers
Wonder How to
Stop Hollywood
(By the Associated Press)
Early in the Pacific Coast
league season, the so-called
dopesters used to ask: "What's
holding Hollywood up?"
Now, the question is asked
thusly: "Who's going to pull
Hollywood down?"
Ignored in pre-season selec
tions, the Stars climbed quickly
to the top of the league and
stayed there. They are now 10
games in front of second-place
Sacramento.
All teams were idle Tuesday

Chiefs Transfer Hinges
On Wl Officials Confab
Yakima, Wash., July 13 (U.R) Action on a move to transfer
Wenatchee's Western International league baseball franchise
to, Kennewick, Wash., today awaited a conference of club
owners and league officials.
The possibility that such a transfer would be made was
announced here last night at a WIL meeting by team repre
sentatives and league president, Robert Able,
Wenatchee co-owners Dick Richards and Orin "Babe"
Hollingberry pointed out that the Chiefs only drew about
81,000 home town fans last year, and that a club doesn't
start to pay off until attendance passes 100,000, Attendance
this season is falling below that of 1948,
Cold weather kept cash customers from the ball park during
the early part of the season.
If the franchise is transferred to Kennewick, fans could
be drawn from the expanding Pasco-Kennewick-Richland
area, booming because of the Hanford atomic plant's location
there.
Richards, business manager for the Chiefs, also mentioned
the possibility of transferring the franchise to Klamath Falls,
, or Eugene, Ore., or Bellingham or Aberdeen, Wash.
Unconfirmed reports were being circulated here that the
Tri-City Athletic association has already started to raise
75,000 to build a ball park for a Western International league
entry. .

Still Coaches Tennis
After 50-Year Career
Santa Monica, Calif. (U.R) May Sutton Bundy, Wimbledon sin
gles champion in 1905 and 1907, still bounds around like a school
girl, gives tennis lessons and supervises a large family,
It has been 50 years since
she won the Southern California
women's singles championship
and went on in later years to
capture tennis' highest honors as
a member of a four-sister team
of "tennis-playing Suttons."
From 1900 to 1917, either
May Sutton or one of her his
ters, Ethel, Violet or Florence,
took the Southern California
singles championships.
Today, May, daughter of a
British sea captain who settled
here in 1898, teaches regular
tennis classes at a girls' school
and occasionally gives private
tutoring at local tennis clubs.
"You have to teach the game
to play it and know it well,"
she said. "There so much dif
ference." In looking back on her ath
letic career, Mrs. Bundy says
winning at Wimbledon was her
biggest thrill. At that time, the
British crown was considered
to be the world championship
honor.
After winning in 1907 she re
tired, married and had a family
of four children, one of whom
is Dorothy Bundy, a tennis star
known from Melbourne, Austra
lia, to Paris.
Mrs. Bundy's three sons, Bill,
Nathan,- and Tom, starred at
football, golf and swimming.
Tennis doesn't occupy all the
former women's Wimbledon
champion's life at all. Her fami
ly and her two grand children
really come first.
But she misses the "good old
days" and recalls with pride the
old matches at Santa Monica's
casino courts where the specta
tors drank tea, bands played be
tween matches and "everything
was scrumptious."
TOO CUTE!
Feller Due for Comeback
New York, July 13 (U.R) Get
ting "too cute" developing a
new pitch caused the downfall
of Bobby Feller, all-star catcher
Birdie Tebbetts asserted today,
but the Boston Red Sox back
stop insisted that bullet Bob still
had his fast one and was on the
way back.
The blocky Birdie, who still
thinks that his Red Sox mates
will come on to win the Ameri
can League pennant, doesn't
hold with the critics who be
lieve that Feller is through as
a star pitcher.
"Trying to throw a slider, be
ing too cute, hurt Feller," Teb
betts explained. "And, while
his fast one may not have the
old time hop, it still is plenty
fast enough."
Birdie's theory was that Fel
ler hurt his arm using the slider
when he didn't need it.
"The slider is a resistance
pitch," he argued. "Where a
curve takes only the wrist or
the elbow, a slider puts a strain
both there and on the shoulder.
Feller had all he needed in a
curve, a fast ball and a change
of pace. That slider put a strain
on his shoulder and hurt his
fast ball."
Tebbetts said that in one game
against the Red Sox last season
Feller didn't throw a single fast
