Manager Bill Brenner
pitched and batted Lewiston
to (-7 win over Wenatchee
Tuesday night to preserve
the B rones' narrow lead in
the Western International
Baseball League pennant
race.
Brenner scattered 10 hits as
be marked up his 21st victory
on the mound, and drove in the
winning runs with a sixth in
ning double.
The win kept the Broncs six
percentage points ahead of the
Spokane Indians, who also
won..-
Lewiston's hopes of maintain
ing the lead and gaining
berth in the WIL's post-season
playoff suffered a heavy blow,
however, with Brenner's an
nouncement after the contest
that two key players may be
lost for the rest of the season,
Brenner said catcher Clint
Cameron, who injured his
throwing hand In Monday's
game, probably won't be back.
Bob Williams, Lewiston's lead
ing hitter, is scheduled to re
turn to his teaching Job at
Lewiston High School after
Wednesday' game.
Spokane, keeping pace with
the Broncos, scored enough
runs in the first inning to win
but added some insurance tal
lies and posted a 6-1 triumph

A proposed post-season series betweei the state cham
pion Salem American Legion junior baseball team and the
semipro Bend Loggers has been called off, The reason:
Too many Legion players out for football. . . . Paul Beck,
Mike Campbell and Tom Pickens at Salem high and How
ard Speer and Jerry Waldrop at Cascade.
Only one of the 15 members of the state champion
, Legion team will be eligible for competition next sea
son. He is Curt Jantze, catcher. The other 14 .will be
too old for Legion play next season, though they all
will be playing high school ball next year.
Lee Cameron, Dale Wattenbarger and Glen Hart, Jef
ferson high school football players who were to have
played in the East-West class B Shrine all-star game at
Pendleton Saturday, did not report for practice with the
West team. Wedding bells are to blame. Cameron and
Wattebarger were recently married, while Hart expects
to take the big step soon. Three alternates, from other
schools, replace the Jefferson trio on the West lineup.
So Fred Graham, coach of the Jefferson Lions last season
(he's moved to Stayton high school now) won't have any
of his own players on the West team. Graham is one of
the West coaches. ' '
Kross-Kuts through 'the state: ..Gene Fox, who
pitched for Albany's junior Legion team during the
state tournament in Salem, joined the Albany Ath
letics, a semipro team, after the Legion season. Fox
was beaten by the Roseburg Chiefs, 7-3, in a game at
Roseburg Sunday . . . another Albany semipro team,
the Alcoa, closed out their season with a trip to Reno,
Nev., where they lost two games to the Reno-Sparks
" Pioneers, 10-3 and 3-1 .. . Herb Snider and Neil
Honka were injured in a spectacular six-car smashup
in hard top races at McMinnville Saturday night. ..The
race was halted for a full hour because of the acci
dent ... on the same night, there was a four-car
crack-up at the Ashland track . . . Eugene and Salem
tracks also ran races that night, which means that
auto racing was being conducted on four Oregon
- tracks on a single night.
More prizes for the Salem Senators to shoot at . . . Joe
Josephson, proprietor of the J End J Clothes Shop, is offer
ing a $50 suit of clothes to the Senator player who hits
the jnost home runs between now and the end of the
second half ... a $35 sport coat to the p'.ayer with the
most runs batted in during the remainder of regular sea
son play . . . and an $18.60 pair of slacks .to the Senator
with the most hits in that time.
