Play Eugene Larks
evening. He had a bit of trouble
in the first three innings but aft
er that kept the Silversox under
control with nine strikeouts, one
walk, one hit batsman and nine
hits.
Russ Stuart continued to shine
in the field with a stop of a hard
grounder back of second base
with a snap throw to first as lo
cal games. Milto Martin caught
Joe Palmisano off first base in
the third with a nice throw and
Bill Adams backed deep for a
flv also.

son, the fans were finally dis
persed by police after they pum
meled Base Ump J. "Doc" Re
gele as he made his way to the
umpires' dressing room.
Thr.at Voiced
Before the start of the series
between Wenatchee and Tri-City
here Friday, Regele had said
he was out to "get" Thompson,
it was reported. He ejected the
manager during the course of
the game.
In the final innings. Regele
made numerous calls which gave
Tri-City a decided edge, Radio
Broadcaster Bob Robertson re
ported. With the score tied 6-all in the
ninth, Dick Faber of Tri-City
hit a blooper to Second Baseman
Buddy HJelmaa. Hjelmaa fielded
the ball on the first bounce and
tagged Artie Wilson as the run
ner went by, Robertson said.
Regele called Wilson safe, and
two Tri-City runs were scored.
Hjelmaa vociferously protest
ed the decision and was thrown
out of the game as pop bottles
rained around the umpire.
Runn.r 'Obviously' Out
tarlier in the game, Robert
son said, Regele called a runner
safe on a play at third base as
Wenatchee Third Sacker Don
Fracchia "obviously" tagged the
runner almost 10 feet from the
sack on a throw from the out
field. The out would have nipped
a Tri-City roily two runs short
of the five scored in the frame.
In his broadcast, Robertson
termed the game a "fiasco" and
said everyone in the press row
at Recreation park voiced their
agreement.
As the contest ended, with
Tri-City winning 8-7, the fans
poured out of the stands, throw
ing pop bottles, seat cushions
and rolled-tip newspapers. They
swarmed around Regele and he
had to fight his way through the
Huong to reach the safety of the
dressing room, Robertson added.
The fans milled around under
the stands, waiting for Regele
to reappear before being dis
persed by police.
