A eouplt of items in the box
More just about tells the story
f Thursday night's encounter at
Waters park 21 bases on balls
and nine errors.
However, since the Senators
merged winners 16 to 10 over
Wenatchee after two hours and
15 minutes of activity perhaps
all should be forgiven. And just
by way of explanation it should
be said that only three of the
Chiefs' runs off Cal Mclrvin
were earned even though the left
hander sent nine of them to first
via the free route.
Lou MoCollum, a right
hander whom the Solons have
had difficulty with In other
contests, proved easy picking
as they jumped on him for 10
hits and an even dozen runs
of the baby grand. It was his
innings he was permitted to
toil. Manager Charlie Peter
son took over in the third and
soft pitched the rest of the
way with greater success than
his predecessor. All four runs
off his delivery were earned.
Both sides to the program gave
out the appearance of having
gone round the Horn en route
to Salem. But, perhaps most
anybody would have been a bit
listless after spending most of
the night traveling in order to
fill the obligations of the sched
ule. The 563 persons present
were not left in doubt for long
as to what was in store for
in the very first inning the
Chiefs notched three tallies.
Two hits, plus three Salem
boots accounted for them. The
Senators collected 12 of their
runs in the next three innings
as they hit McCollum freely.
There were no home runs and
extra base hitting was confined
to the double column with
Wayne Peterson, Bob Hedington,
Mel Wasley, Cal Mclrvin and
Art Pennington each contribut
ing a two baser for the winners.
Shortstop Meyers performed a
similar feat for the Chiefs.
Friday night's program will
consist of two games beginning
at 7 o'clock with Johnny
Price, baseball's noted sleight-of-hand
performer, tossed in
for good measure. Price will
display his bag of tricks be
tween games.
Salem's win, couple with Vic
toria's loss to Vancouver, 6 to 2,
pushed the Senators up to within
one game of fifth place, a posi
tion now held by the Athletics.
The Tacoma Tigers climbed
out of the cellar at the expense
of Bremerton as they downed
the Bluejackets twice, 6-1 and
5-8.
Yakima beat Spokane, 4 to 1,
to give the Bears an unsur
mountable lead for the pennant.

Hollywood Coast League
Lead Pared to Two Games

The Hollywood Stars' lead in the Pacific Coast league is now
a shaky two games slimmest since way back in May. Oakland,

ahead 3 to 2. Pinchhitter Reno
Cheso singled in a run to make
it 3-3 but that was the only hit
off Thmpson,
Sacramento, which has been in
a second-place tie with Oakland,
failed to keep pace. The Solons
lost 5 to 4 to Portland when Ed
die Fernandes' pinch hit single
in the ninth gave the Beavers
two runs.
Charlie Schanz hung up his
18th win of the year as Seattle
edged San Diego 4 to 3. Heinz
