LOCAL UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATED PRESS NEWS AND FEATURES Salem, Oregon, Thursday, July 28, 1949 17 Victoria Nabs Rubber Mix, 14-5, Cap Series Is Next ; Victoria, B. C, July 28 Jim i Probst, Victoria's prize left ; hander had his 10th win of the Western International season to ' day as the Salem Senators were ' the victims of his expert elbow j lng last night 14 to 5. The contest, which saw the Athletics belt two Salem pitch- i ers and a third baseman for 22 I solid punches, shuttled the So- 1 Ions back into seventh place as j the Atheltics advanced to sixth, i The series ended with Victoria taking two out of three. S Bob Drilling, Senator start- lng pitcher, served four in , nings before giving way to i Bill Osborn and when the lat iK er proved ineffective, Bob J ' Hedington came in from his the last two frames giving up six hits and two runs. Six Salem errors cut the earned mark down to four. Luck played a small part in the. Senators' lack of scoring, although absence of horse shoes was not responsible for the beat ing they absorbed. For instance, in the fourth, Bob Cherry hit the very top of the center field screen but when the ball bounc ed back he was held to a single by some fast fielding. Then Mel Wasley hit the left center .field screen with a screaming liner and the ball stuck there. In stead of getting a home run. ground rules made it a double. With Cherry on third and Was ley on second, Bob Hedington popped out to Gil McDougald. Orrin Snyder, next man up, ducked an inside pitch. The ball hit his bat and rolled out onto the diamond and was an easy out Probst to Vic Buccola at first. Wayne Peterson struck out to leave the two men stranded. In Victoria's half of the in ning, one of Drilling's pitches his Charlie Balassi's bat. The Official Box Salem 1 U Victor!

By FRANK ECK -Even the. great Bobby Jones played one hole like a ball rebounded back onto the diamond and Balassi got a single out of it when Drilling rolled over attempting to make a play at first. To sum It up the Athletics scored in every inning except the first and seventh as every man on the club got at least one blow, Balassi was the most effective, turning in a four for five performance. Probst walked seven men but had little trouble in silencing the Senator bats when it appear ed he was headed for trouble as he whiffed as many as he passed. A single by Snyder, a walk to Wayne Peterson and Krug's single to right gave Salem its one marker in the third. The Yakima Bears came out of their four game encounter ith the Vancouver Capilanos slightly worse for wear as they dropped three. The two clubs broke even last night with the rampaging Caps tak ing the first tilt 14-10 only to lose the second 8-2. Bremerton took its fifth straight win by a 4-2 count over Spokane and Tacoma edged Wenatchee 6-5. Threatened with the loss of their franchise, 1200 fans showed up for the Blue jacket-Indian contest, about double the usual attendance. Salem goes to Vancouver for a four game series with the Caps beginning Thursday night. Short Scorei: Yakima 000 m 0 1 14 0 Vancouver 400 0(10)0 X 14 15 0 Bradford, Dicker (51.

Only one game now stands between the locals and a berth in the state tournament at Al bany late next week. Salem and Hillsboro clash again at Hills boro Sunday afternoon, and a win for the locals in that con test would put them in the tournament. Jim Rock went the route for the winners Wednesday, giving up five scattered hits. Meanwhile, his teammates were getting but three bingles off Toby Lewis, opposing mpundsman, Salem made full use of four walks and a Hills boro error. Locke Snaps at Cash Bait- for Spokane Match Spokane, July 28 VP) Despite a doubt-casting comment by the Professional Golfers association tournament manager, the Spo kane Athletic round table went ahead today with plans for its proposed "world championship" golf match between Bobby Locke, Sam Snead and Cary Middlecoff. None of the three has ap proved the match as yet, but Locke rose sufficiently to . the bait yesterday to inquire from Belfast, Ireland, for the pro posed dates of the event. The visitors made the initial dent on the plate in the first inning. Ray Rothstrom sin gled to right withone out and Ron McKichan drew a walk. Jim Nierman then dribbled a ground ball to Ron Parson, whose toss to second base pulled second-sacker Ward Jacobsen off the bag, and all hands were safe. That filled the bases with one away, and wlien Marty Hankinson, next up, lofted a towering fly ball to Jack Lar- gent in right field, Rothstrom scampered home from third. Salem went ahead with two tallies in the second. Parson and Rock opened the inning by walking, and on a steal play Hillsboro catcher Malcolm Mc Innls threw the ball clear into center field, allowing Parson to score and Rock to go to third. Elmer Haugen tapped an easy roller to Lewis, who elected to toss to the plate in an attempt to stop Rock. But the toss was late, and the Capital Posters moved to the front 2 to 1. Coach Bill Hanauska's crew added three more runs in the fifth on a triple by pinch-hitter Bill Johnson, walks to Jim Stew ard and Jacobsen, a single by Gordy Sloan and a long fly off the bat of Gene Jones. Hillsboro countered with a single run in each of the sixth and seventh innings, and had two men on base when the fi nal out was registered.

Keeler, Atlanta s noted golf writer who not only saw Jones' Grand Slam but claims he is the only person who has witnessed Jones 13 major tour nament triumphs. "Bobby played a spoon on his second shot and was 12 yards short of the green," says the popular O.B. "He had a clear shot for the green, nothing in the way. Yet he 2 took five more shots to get 9 down. Z "His third shot missed the f green. It was just short. On E his fourth shot he chipped 12 feet past the cup. On his fifth 2 he putted one yard past the hole. His sixth stroke just bare- j ly missed, rimming the cup. He 1 wound up with a seven." 4 TOMORROW Barron's whiffs.

Lockwood Retained Retention of Charlie A. Lockwood by the recently appointed state game commission doubtless will please most nimrods, al though the appointment has been earmarked "temporary. Lockwood, one of the hardest workers the game department has ever had, has been informed he is to remain as state game com missioner for the balance of the year. In the meantime they will oDserve his work and then review tne situation. Lockwood s hands were more or less tied under the old commission and he did pretty much as ordered regardless of his own views on any certain problem. He probably knows Oregon better than any other person who has been engaged in public work and has been a tireless worker in the interest of game as well as the man who buys a license. If Lockwood has been able to collect overtime pay during the past few years retirement would have been easy for the night meetings he attended were numerous. Under the recently enacted game legislation, the commission will function a policy making organization. The commissioner will be given the responsibility of producing satisfactory results. If he does the commission is expected to keep hands off. Tough Assignment Chickens will come home to roost or something like that next week when the Senators entertain Victoria and Vancouver for their last showing at Waters park for the season. Games washed out earlier in the year will be made up in an effort to wipe the slate clean. Manipulation of a none too strong pitching staff through 11 games in seven days will be something for Manager Bill Beard to chew on. The program opens with double headers against Vic toria Monday and Tuesday nights prior to the appearance of Al Schacht the evening of August 3, and winds up with a half dozen encounters with the second place Vancouver Caps. The Senators draw a night off August 8 before moving Into the Sound country for a series with Bremer ton and Tacoma. With the Senators gradually lowering themselves into the league basement, nobody around here need worry about the post season playoffs involving upper division clubs. Contenders Draw The climb of the Portland Beavers from their lowly spot in the Pacific coast league to a position in the upper division has Drought a revival of spectator Interest and there is a possibility tne Vaughn street outfit may approach the record in attendance, It's a good example of what happens when a ball club becomes a contender. We firmly believe Salem and its environs would respond in similar manner if the community was provided with a hustling, winning ball club. It's more than difficult to re tain spectator interest in a squad that is retreating toward the cellar. Only the more hardy can survive such an ordeal. As for the Beavers they were a few percentage points more than five complete games out of second position, currently held by the Sacramento Solons after Tuesday night's schedule. Greater athletic miracles have been achieved and it is entirely possible the Portland Beavers, whose early season performance drew bitter barbs from all quarters, will finish near the top. The coast season does not end until late September. Fans who would like to visit Vaughn Street will have five series from which to select during the' balance of the season: Aug. 2-7, Oakland; Aug. 16-21 and Aug. 30-31, Seattle; Sept. 3-6, San Francisco and Sept. 7-11, Los Angeles. Toolson Joins Oaks Earl Toolson, former Willamette university diamond star who played under Coach Spec Keene, has Joined the Oak land Acorns and as a member of the Oaks will be in Port land during the Aug. 2-7 series. And, according to a spe ' cial operative in the Bay district, a son has been born to Mr. and Mrs. Bob Medley. The youngster, to be known as Stephen, weighed in excess of eight pounds. The father, Tillamook high coach, Is doing graduate work in education at Stanford. Dwight Adams, another Willamette product who directs the operation of Stanford village, a campus housing project, now has a family of three boys. The older -boys, Bob and Bill, sell peanuts and soft drinks at all Stan ford games. Bob apparently takes after his athletic dad, for he led his seventh grade league in scoring in both foot ball and basketball last year. NATIONAL LEAGUE W L Pet.

Cards Hold Pace on Win: Indian-Yank Game Called New York, July 28 (U.R) A right jab amid the flurry of lefts kept the St. Louis Cardi nals in fighting trim today. The jab is provided by George (Red) Munger, a burly brute from Houston, Tex., who serves as a long lighthouse regular starting right hander on a pitch ing staff dominated by lefties, He jabbed first the Giants, then the Dodgers and last night the Phils in the Cardinal running battle for the National league championship. He has won three in a row now, and four of his last six starts. The score was 7 to 3 over the Phils last night, and, in addition to being the eighth Stars Break Slump at Expense of Portlands (By the Associated Press) The Hollywood Stars, solidly on top of the Coast league heap most of the way this year, ap pear to be coming out of their slump. After dropping from a 10 game lead to a mere four, the movieland men have started winning games again, collecting three victories out of their last four tries. Jack Salveson hurled the Stars to a 4-2 win over the Portland Beavers Wednesday night, squaring their series at a game apiece. He allowed five hits, all . in the last three frames. The Stars won the game in the sixth inning, scoring twice on a walk, three singles and a long fly. Eddie Basinski homered for the Beavers. Second place Sacramento bowed to Los Angeles 4-1, Angel Don Carlsen limiting the losers to three safeties to notch his eighth win against as many losses. Don personally scored two runs and figured in the har vesting of both the others. San Diego set back San Fran cisco 5-2 as Jess Flores limited the Seals to five hits.

Seattle's other run also came via a homer, by Mickey Grasso in the third. St. Louis victory without de feat, served to maintain the game and a half lead over the Dodgers. Brooklyn had snap ped its losing streak at four games during the afternoon with a win over the Chicago Cubs, likewise by a 7 to 3 count. The New York Giants came from behind with a five run se venth inning to down the Pi rates, 8 to 3. Marv Rickert was the big gun in a 9 to 7 Boston Braves con test of Cincinnati. The crucial battle in the American league did not come off. Or, rather, It did come off too soon for a decision. The Yankees and the Indians were tied 4-4 when rain halted play after the fourth inning. The game was not without sig nificance, however, in that Bob Feller was knocked out of the game after 22 pitches and four Yank runs. The Red Sox showed sDarks of an upward surge when Mel Parnell shut out the White Sox, 6 to 0, on three hits for his 14th win of the year. The Washington Senators snapped their losing streak at 11 When they beat Detroit, 7 to 6, in the first game of a double- header. But they lost the second in characteristic style, 11 to 0. The Athletics came from be hind twice to beat the Browns in another twi-night double header, 7 to 3 and 8 to 6.
