If tonisht's final Northwest
league clash between Salem and
J'enatchee is half as interesting
- last night's excitement - filled
.program won by Salem 4-2, local
jans will De m lor a real treat.
i For Wednesday night's Waters
field game was just about the
andiest two hour show seen here
his season. It combined excep
tionally good Daseoail with antics
ieeu usually under the 'Big Top,'
to entertain the 2988 fans regally
at "State Employee's Night."
Tonight's game will start at 8
clock and Manager Hugh Luby
H the Salems is expected to start
Jong John WorUiam," the ' Texas
Dative, on the mound. John Morrill,
strong armed righthander will
go for Wenatchee 'a once proud
former league leaders.
Trallcy Hilt No. 11
-For baseball, the fans watched
righthander Bud Francis, in one
of his better outings, hurl the
Senators to their second straight
.(eries win over the Chiefs. They
yf a defensive gem by Mel
fcrause and Gene Tanselli that was
"out of this world" and watched
outfielder Don Frailey power one
of Bob Robert's slants high over
Hie rightfield fence for his 13th
homer.
iBut to the antics that made a
jeal hit with the state employees
. most of which were put on by
the employees themselves:
is' First the OSEA presented a
"plaque to Luby in recognition of
- the first half title won by Salem.
Then came perhaps the funniest
"15 minutes at Waters Park this
i aeason, when the OSEA hanged
and burned Wenatchee Manager
Edo (1 hate snakes) Vannf, a
notorious umpire-baiter, in effl-
- gy. Nine badly mangled umpires,
'representing those in the yean
1946-54 whom Vannl had purged,
7. danced around the fire at Vanni's
'ghost and the devil joined in the
2fua.
Vanni took the program in stride
ond was given a new sport shirt
and a red handkerchief by the
OSEA during the pre-game ieslivi-
ties.
. -nake Appears
The rest of the night was just
r about as exciting from other than
a baseball standpoint. Mysterious
'firecrackers were con t i n u a 1 1 y
booming near Vanni or his Wenat
chee charges and a lowly garter
anake even got into the game in
he second frame.
Vanni, who is "death on snakes,"
rearly stepped on this one which
-mysteriously appeared in the third
base coaching box in the second
inning. The resulting scurry left
Vanni about 50 feet away across
i the diamond. He's not one to be
playing with snakes, it seems, even
wthe garter variety.
Aside from the horseplay, the
"Came would have to be rated on
par with the best.
Francis had things his own way
6i all but the fifth inning when
J.enatchee combined a walk, two
ingles and an outfield error to
jlcore their two runs. He gave up
unly five singles all night. One
lard drive by the Chief's Bob
Duretto that had "base hit" writ
Jen all over it was converted to an
"Infield out in the sharpest bit of
iaktense seen here this season,
frause to Tanselli
' It occurred in the fourth when
XPuretto, the loop's leading flick
er, slashed a hard grounder over
Second base. Salem's Mel Krause
rmanaged to spear it, but was
lno far off balance to turn and
"throw so he flipped the ball to
Tahortstop Gene Tanselli coming
'across and Tanselli threw D li
bretto out at first base. The pair
.made it look easy, but It was a
Jteal "fielding gem."
, Salem went ahead briefly in the
bottom of the fourth inning when
Rookie Don Frailey picked one of
Sot) Roberts' pitches and hammer
ed it high over the right field wall
-- a solo homer. It was Frailey 's
33th our bagger of the season.
The Senators staged their game
-winning rally in the sixth and they
Jiad a lot of help from Wenatchee
outfielder Chuck Uindgren. Floyd
Robinson started it with a single
fia center. Then Tanselli beat out
bunt. Bill Shields was called out
when he bunted and couldn't get
out of the way of Chief catcher
Joe Rossi.
IBrcak Scores Two
- Then came the "break" Hie
Solons had been waiting lor. Third
ta.eman Tommy Agosta boomed a
jdrive into rightfield which went
Till the way to the fence, scoring
loth Robinson and Tanselli. Out
fielder Lundgren. in charging to
.catch the ball, slipped on the wet
tirass and the ball sailed over his
-bead.
., Salem added an unexpected in
-turance
run in the seventh when
Francis walked, was sacrificed to
second and came all the way home
Xn a pair of balks by Roberts.
FANFARE
Needless to say. Vanni had plenty
to tell the umpires about Robert's
balk that scored Francis and the
nearly J.OOO fans who stayed until
the final out had plenty to tell
Vanni.
The number one state employee,
Governor Paul Patterson, was
there to use his southpaw slant
in throwing out the first ball. He
threw a perfect strike to Salem's
Harvey hoepf.

He's a balding businessman

It is sad but true that old Sammy

Open. H 's been trying for almost
20 years but still no cigar. When
it comes to the PGA tournament,
however, there are few who can
