Tobey climbed the rise again Monday and held Hoquiam to two hits and two runs. both scored by batters he walked and helped move arotmd on h/s own wild throws. Shelton showed plate punch for the irst time in the Hoquiam con- test, bangin nine safeties and sewing the affair up early with three markers in the first and an- other pair in the second. Ken Carlson tripled in the first frame behind singles by McPherson and Wayne Clary and scored on a fly, thm Clary soaked one for two, sacks in the second behind singles by Herb Baze and Tobey. Sundsten scored $n expensive run In the third to cIbse Shelton's marker-making when he walked and eventually stole home on a squeeze play which went awry but the big catcher sprain'ed an ankle badly on the play. Although Valley was nicked rather freely in the early innings by the little Rangers Tuesday, he entered the sixth with a 4 to 0 lead and seemed to be headed for victory. Then' the roof fell in and a combination of five Ranger hits and five Highclimber errors, into which was mixed two "passed balls, two stolen bases and a field- era choice play, allowed seven St. Martins runners to score. Only one of the tallies was earned. . The Highclimbers had opened with two runs in the first on Bob Wells' double, Carlson's single, and a Ranger bobble, and added single- tons in the fourth Cartwright's single and Cardinal's triple and in the fifth on singles by Wells and Clary. After the Ranger upr_jsing tim Highcl/mbers got one bak on Cartwright's triple to left and a bad throw by Pitcher"Joe Dawson on an infield roller. Clary's play at second and Cart- wright's at third has highlighted Shelton's defensive performances so far, while both have also been hitting the ball well, along with Carlson and Tobey. Tobey struck out the first six Hoquiam batters to face him, whiffed the side again in the sixth, and wound tip with 15 for the game after setting a dozen Vaughn hitters down. He walked four tn the two: ga'eq, Valley' pidked :0ff eight larls on strikes and walked two in his ftfll length stint.

Anyway, the grocers and cor- nerites are running neck-and-neck up at the top with Pastime and McConkey Pharmacy p u r s u i n g dangerously close with the ached- tile on its last lap. The pharmacists also won a trio Tuesday, paddling Mason Laundry behind the 530 and 224 figures reg- istered by Bessie Bolen which tdp- pod the individual scoring for the night. That 224 with help from Wan- da Schirrner and LaVonne Cole, paced the pharmacists to a new single game record of 902 pins for the season. Pastime shaded Pantorium. 2 to 1, in the fourth match, as Mickey Ltndeman picked up 500 pins.
