It finished third, dropping out in " the final week. A former Boston Red Sox pitcher, Wilson master- minded Uie team into its strong f in- ish by his work with the pitchers and his emphasis on strong de- fense. J While the Senators haven't had J much training because of the heavy spring rains, it appears the club will be well-balanced. Vince Lazor. the team's top pit- cher, and Hunk Anderson, a WIL J league veteran, will be back on the J hill. Three other pitchers Gene Peterson, Buzz Sporer and Daryle Eliason are back again, but they J didn't show much promise last sea v son. Wilson has four rookie pitchers who might make good. J In the infield positions, the only men who played last year are Mel Nunes, sparkling heavy - hitting J third baseman and Al Spaetcr at second base. Jim Wirt, a California state league veteran, Is expected to J strengthen the team at first, a v weak . spot last year. At shortstop "will be Joe Gcdzius, a former San B Diego player who had a good rec jord with Bremerton. The new catcher is Buster Mc jMlllan, a big boy who batted over ,.300 In both the Texas league and the southern association. The outfielders are expected to have lots of hitting power. Dick Sinovic. who Ust year was both a wild pitcher and a good outfielder, is going to give up pitching this year. Dick Gentzknw had a big year with Albuquerque last year, and Chet Hartman was a fence buster in the California state league. Bob Cherry, who had a good record with Denver last year, also Is expected to report. The Senators hope to get another Infielder and a starting pitcher from the parent Portland Beavers of the Pacific coast league. The Beavers aren't very popular around Salem right now. Before the sea son opened, they optioned three of Salem's best players to other leagues. They were shortstop Bud Peter son, and Outfielders Eddie Barrand Hal Summers. The fans think the Beavers ought to ''o something for Salem. Orangemen Led Statistic Race NEW YORK.
