    Kindsfather
Will Open
For Salem
By RAY ANDREWS
United Pren Sport Writer
Salem W The Salem Sen
ators will lead with an ace
Vern Kindsfather, when they
open their Northwest leagu
season Thursday against Eu
gene.
Kindsfather posted a 17-13
mark last year as the Senators
finished third in both halves
of the split season and looms
as the bulwark of Manager
Don Lundberg's hurling corps.
Kindsfather will be backed
up by Tom Flynn, Hal Lamed,
Gu Carmichael, Humberto
Marquez, and Ev Aldridge,
Carmichael showed a 7-7
mark with Wenatchee last
year, Marquez was 12-9 with
Visalia in the California
league, Aldridge had a 5-8
mark with Tri-City and Flynn
is a well-regarded lefty from
the Cincinnati Redlegs.
Power Hitter
On the power side, the Sen
ators have acquired Vince
Moreci who can belt the long
ball. He led the loop in hom
ers with 36 in 1956 and could
drive home a flock of runs
Lundberg can also look to
some sharp hitting from vet
eran Jack Dunn. Dunn clicked
off a .328 mark last year and
sent 45 runs across the plate
Roy Parker, an outfielder who
hit .238 with Wenatchee last
year also figures in Lund
berg's plans.
Two Latin players who may
make it by opening day are
Alfredo Conton and Julio
Pirela. Pirela is a shortstop
and Conton an outfielder.
Lundberg Busy
Rigoberto Mendoza, a third
baseman owned by the Cin
cinnati club also may make
the erade.
Lundbere was behind the
plate in 123 games for Wen
atchee last season and un
rfnuhtedlv will handle his
share of the catching chores
this year with Salem.
He belted Northwest league
Ditching for a .311 mark and
drove in 69 markers. His bat
will be a big help to the Sen
ators.
As with other Northwest
league skippers, : Lundberg
will nrobablv do a lot of
shuffling during the early go-
ine. Both the Los Angeies
Dodgers and Kansas City Ath
letics have notified Salem oi
ficials they have several play
ers earmarked for duty with
Salem.
Overall in the 1957 cam
paign, the Senators were just
a shade over the .suo marie
with a percentage of .507.

FOURTH INNING CONFUSION This four-picture sequence shows Los Angeles Dodger
confusion as the San Francisco Giants scored four runs in the fourth inning of their
game in the Los Angeles, Calif., Coliseum. Giants' Willie Mays (24), comes into second
base on Hank Sauer's grounder to third. Dodger Dick Gray threw to second baseman
Charlie Neal, who lost the hall, and Mays went on to third. Neal awaits the throw at
second (upper left), as Mays slides in; Neal loses the ball as Mays gets to his feet
(upper right); Mays takes off for third base, as Neal still doesn't see the ball (lower,
right and left).

Royal Triumph
By UNITED PRESS
Rene Valdes of the Mon
treal Royals, whose pitching
