McNulty, who won 19 games
for Salem last year, was in
complete command over his
former teammates last night.
He gave up no walks, and never
allowed a man to get beyond
first base.
McNulty retired the first 10
men to face him, before Salem
manager Hugh Luby singled in
the fourth Inning. A double
play promptly erased Luby as
a base runner.
The only other Salem base
runners in the game were Jerry
Ballard, who singled in the
fifth inning, and Gene Tanselli,
who singled in the sixth.
McNulty also batted In the
lone run of the ball game, In
the fifth. Vern Campbell and
McNulty doubled in succes
sion off Dave Dahle, who
went the route for Salem.
Roenspie was nicked for nine
hits and walked three in toss
ing Salem to its win in the
nightcap. But, unlike McNulty,
Roenspie was no star at the
plate. He struck out all three
times he came to bat.
The Senators got some lusty
batting from Connie Perez, who
had a double and two singles,
and Les Witherspoon who, had
three singles.
All runs in the ball game
came on at a time. Salem
scored In the third, fourth,
sixth and seventh innings.

The reason Herschel McGriff didn't show up to race in
Saturday night's stock car races at Hollywood Bowl, after
prerace publicity had promised he'd be there, is because
McGriff has retired from'auto racing.
The retirement came rather suddenly. McGriff wit-,
nessed a fatal accident at the Portland Speedway August
16. Two cars caught fire, and one of the drivers ran
into the infield, his clothes aflame. He died the next day.
.... . ., .
McGriff has witnessed hundreds of accidents on the
speedway, and none of them "scared him out" before.
But the sight of a man running while 'burning to death
was enough to cause McGriff to quit racing for good.
Lucky Glascock, who was involved in the fatal crash,
but who escaped with only minor burns, has hung up his
safety helmet for keeps, too.
... .....
McGriff 6 car in the cross-country Mexican road race
this year caught fire, too. While McGriff was driving the
car flat out (sustained top speed) across a straight
stretch, flames shot out from the motor, coming up
through the holes in; the floorboard. McGriff couldn't
apply the brakes because of the flames, so he had to
open the door and stand precariously on one foot, his body
hanging outside, while he guided the car with one hand
until it came to a stop. McGriff acquired a lot of respect
for fire then, and when he saw the accident in Portland,
he didn't have to be urged to retire from racing.
Since the fatal accident, Promoter Henry Ireland has
ordered a fine-tooth inspection of every car. Object of
the inspection will be to eliminate every possible fire
hazard.
. ... . .
Kross-Kuls through the state: Dick Twenge, foot
ball coach at Corvalis high school, plans to use a ,
straight T formation this year. Last year the Spar
tans mixed a single wing in with the T, but Twenge
feels that his light, fast backs are best suited to a
straight T this year. Five letter-men backfielders are
on the squad, They are Warren Doty, Jerry Handy,
Frank Beer, Larry Edwards and Wendell Scott. . . .
Bill Shattuck of North Bend, formerly of Salem, has
been named chairman of the tournament committee
in charge of the 1954 Oregon state Junior Chamber of
Commerce golf tournament, to be conducted in North
Bend. The affair was held at Salem Golf club this
year . . , nine regulars from the 1952 squad have re
turned to the North Bend high school football lineup
this season. They include Jim Shanley, top scorer
in the state last season . . . Coach Stan Blair at Bend
high school is faced with the problem of building a
football team from scratch. AH 11 regulars fitdm
last year were lost via graduation.
