Salveson Posts 200th Coast Loop Triumph San Francisco (U.R) Jack Saleveson, the oldest 38-year-old hurler in baseball, Monday pointed to his record of 200 Paci fic Coast league victories to prove his theory of pitching. Ol' Jack, steadfastly maintain ing "I'm only 38," labored to triumph number 200 Sunday when he gained San Diego a 6-1 nightcap victory over Oakland. Salveson was reached for four hits over the seven-inning dis tance. Two safeties came in one frame, accounting for the Oak run. Three Gam Lead San Diego also took the open er from the Oaks, 6-2, to gain a 5-2 edge in the series and draw out to a three-game league lead. Second - place Hollywood di vided with Seattle, losing 21, but winning 12-2. Los Angeles won two from Sacramento, 3-2 and 9-1, to salvage three games of the series. Portland and San Francisco halved it, the Bevos copping the first one, 7-2, but losing the second, 2-1. A bespectacled righthander, Salveson entered the "second century" club in the speedy time of 1 hour 37 minutes. This was accomplished while working against relief pitcher Bill Ayers, a notoriously deliberate mounds man, for 6 23 innings. Games Fast Salveson's games are always fast. His pitching theory makes that necessary. "Get In there and let 'em hit," he espouses. attle, tied with 288; Ed Harper, Twin Falls, Ida., amateur, and 'oe Steiger, Coos Bay, tied with 289; Jim Russell, Walla Walla, and Ben Hughes, amateur, Port land, tied with 290; Sid Har mon, Walla Walla, 291, and Joe Greer, Yakima, 292. And he may point to the record book to prove he's right Only 10 other pitchers have won as many as 200 PCL games. Round Richard Barrett, the jolly right hander was the last to do so. Portland clobbered the Seal staff for 14 hits In winning the first contest and the series. But San Francisco came back strong ly to score two runs for pitching prospect Bill Boemler, a big left hander with a baseball future.

May 26, 1952 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE BEVElf . Sineanore (U.R) Whether mass punishment on the inhabi tants of a small town is wholly justified, partially justified or unjustified is a heated topic of discussion in the country. Malayan Communist terror ists killed eight policemen and four civilians, including two Europeans, and wounded eight other policemen in an ambush at Tanjong Malim, a rail hub town in central Malaya, ine British high commissioner, Gen. Sir Gerald Templer went to the town from Kuala Lumpur to give the population a real whip ping. ,He did not lash them wan a Zorro whip or the Malayan cat o'nine tails. He whipped them with his tongue and imposed drastic penalties for their "cow ardly silence." Among the various "senten ces" imposed were: 1. Shops will remain open only for two hours a day. 2. No one is allowed to leave the town. 3. All schools will be closed. 4. No bus serv ices. 5. No free-market rice to be sold in the whole police district. 8. Reduction in the ordinary ra tion. 7. Reorganization of the district under firmer administra tion. Nearly 20,000 people were af fected by the collective punish ment the high commissioner meted out. f Leaders Told Off Three hundred leaders were assembled in a hall before Temp ler arrived and the high commis sioner told them what he was there for. He told them that the men who were slain by the Commun ists were on their way to repair a water pipe sabotaged by the terrorists so that the inhabitants of the town would have their water. He said the ambush would not have occurred if only the people had the courage (to give information to the authorities). Templer then went on to list the series of major crimes perpe trated in the town since the emergency began: five am bushes, 10 attacks on police and the military posts, five lorries Durned, 8,000 rubber trees slash ed, seven strikes due to intimi dation of labor, three buses de stroyed, five unsuccessful road ambushes, one train derailed one attempted derailment, one attack on a kampong (village), two pipelines damaged, 18 ban dit camps found, a total of 26 killed, nine police wounded, sev en civilians killed, and two wounded. During the past six months, the high commissioner said. there had been only three cases in the area where information was given on which It was pos sible to take effective action. Templer said he was certain the recent ambush and- all the other crimes could only have taken place with the knowledge of certain of the local inhabi tants. He branded those people who withheld information as cowards. Warns Against Hedi Templer said the inhabitants wanted everything done for them, but they were not pre pared to assume the responsi bility of citizenship and he was going to see to it that the abuse was stopped. The high commissioner also warned his listeners that Com munism is the most evil thing in the world. "Do you think that under a Communist regime you will be able to live a happy fam ily life? Don't you realize that even your children will be set to spy upon you?" he asked. Supporters of Templer's ac tion described it as a lesson in responsibility, and as a warning to those who deliberately with hold assistance from the authori ties and so connive In terrorism. It Is a principle well known In ordinary law, they added, that those who have guilty knowl edge should be dealt with as ac cessories. Punishment Felt Unfair Opponents of the action as serted it was not fair for the people of the town to be pun ished for crimes perpetrated by a handful of Communists. The collective punishment, they said, win not cause the Communists to call off their ambushes, rub ber tree slashings and the build ing of bandit camps. They also contended that the majority of the people had kept silent through fear based largely on the belief that the govern ment could not provide them with adequate protection.
