Wes Stock made his major
league pitching debut last Sun-
day, going two innings in a relief
role for Baltimore as the Orioles
took a 4-2 loss at the hands of
Washington in the second game of
a doubleheader.
The Highelimber grad gave up
one hit--a home run by Harmon
Killebrew, Senator third sacker,
In the fifth inning--as/he relieved
starter Jack Harshman. Stock
pitched the fifth and sixth frames,
striking out one batter, walking
none. A pinch-hitter batted for
him in the sixth.
The fact that the young ath-
lete fror Allyn was sedt into
the game with the =core 3-2 in
the middle innings is pretty
strong testimonial to the esteem
with which Manager Paul Rich-
ards holds him.
Although Stock is sticking with
the Orioles during the early part
of the major league season,
el]antes are that he'll be sent out
for seasoning where he can pitch
regularly, . and certainly that
would seem to be the best thing
for him, much as he and his many
friends hope he sticks in the ma-
jors.
Stock is considered the top
young pitching prospect in the
Baltimore farm system at this
time and just might have enough
ability to help the parent club
this year, but for his own future
another ,eason in the high minors
SC('IIIS the wisel' COtlt'S(L
If he is sent out for exper-
ience, there seems to be a strong
possibility that he might wind
up with Vancouver, B.C., In the
Pacific Coast League, where
much of the young Oriole talent
is going for seasoning. If so,
his Mason county admirers will
have several chances to watch
him in action this summer.
Stock's name was added to the
regular Baltimore roster just be-
fore the major league season
started when rookie shortstop
Ron Hansen was optioned to Van-
couver.
Staying with Baltimore, how-
ever, is a shaky position in Stock's
case for he is holding the 28th
spot on the 28-man squad allowed
under major league rules and
faces the task of keeping it
against George Zuverink, a veter-
inn relief pitcher now on the dis-
!abled list, and Brooks Robinson,
who can be carried on the squad
a a a n?m-counted returning serv-
ice man only until the end of
April. Stock lost that status him-
self when his c(mtract was trans-
ferred from the Oriole farm club
at Amarillo to the parent club.
Another thing working
against Stock sticking with the
major league club this year is
the fact that Baltimore prob-
ably has a pitching staff ranked
in ability second only to the
Yanks and Milwaukee in the
majors. Good pitching is what
the Orioles have the moat of.
Clippings from Baltimore news-
papers extolling the glittering fu-
ture foreseen for Stock continue
to reach the Journal sports desk,
two more arriving this week,

Chamimr Industrial
Committees In Joint
Study of Objectives
Joint committees of the indus-
trial affairs committee of the
Shelton Chamber of Commerce
met togetier Friday to discuss
aims and objectives for this year
with emphasis upon support of
present businesses and industries.
One of the main sentiments ex-
x'essed was need for all local or-
ganizations, both governmental
and comnnmity, to begin a pro-
gram of much closer cooperation
toward improvement of this area
in all ways, as a place to live and
a place to wm'k.
"This effort should be made and
spearheaded by the Chambey of
Commerce to encourage overall
comprehensive dgvelopment of re-
i ereational facilities, industrial
:sites. city beautification, tourist
promotion, etc.," commented Mar-
dy Stroud, who conducted the
meeting as chairman of the main
committee.
Chuck Rowe chairmans the
sub-cmnmittee on development of
present, business and industry,
Dick Yeager the sub-committee
cowan pitched excellent ball af-
ter a stuttering start. Four walks
and an error gave Jefferson a
two-run start, but the husky Blaz-
er right-hander came back to fan
13 anti allowed only three hits.
Knudson started four 8th grad-
ers---Sloan at third, Droscher at
shortstop, Doug Paulsrude at sec-
ond, and Todd at catcher. All

)rmances.

INTER-CLUB MATCH SUNDAY
Second (if the season's six sched-
uled inter-club golf matches for
Shelton' men's links team finds
Olympia Golf & Country Club vis-
iting the Bayshores course this
coming Sunday.
Team Captain Les LaBissoniere
is sounding a call to arms for all
Shelton men wishing to play to
turn out Sunday as Olympia has
sent word it will bring 35 or more
team members along.
Two weeks ago when Vashon
vi.,dtedk the local links lay-out La-
Blssonlere had ,to scare up sev-
eral more players via phone when
Vashon arrived with more dive-
tesTs than the home club had on
lland.
Lee doesn't relish a repeat of
that situation' this Sunday.
The team captain, incidentally,
has inaugm'ated a new system of
scheduling inter - club matches
which he hopes to carry on in fu-
ture years.
Instead of playing home-and-
homc matches with three oppon-
ents each season LaB[seen[ere has
scheduled six different rivals this
year, playing three at home and
hrce away, with thc understand-
ing th'tt the schedule will Ie re-
versed 'next: year.
In this manner the Shclton golf-:
ere will establish a competitive
tradition wtth six separate rivals
a year instead of three.

Wes Stock made his major
league pitching debut last Sun-
day, going two innings in a relief
role for Baltimore as the Orioles
took a 4-2 loss at the hands of
Washington in the second game of
a doubleheader.
The Highelimber grad gave up
one hit--a home run by Harmon
Killebrew, Senator third sacker,
In the fifth inning--as/he relieved
starter Jack Harshman. Stock
pitched the fifth and sixth frames,
striking out one batter, walking
none. A pinch-hitter batted for
him in the sixth.
The fact that the young ath-
lete fror Allyn was sedt into
the game with the =core 3-2 in
the middle innings is pretty
strong testimonial to the esteem
with which Manager Paul Rich-
ards holds him.
Although Stock is sticking with
the Orioles during the early part
of the major league season,
el]antes are that he'll be sent out
for seasoning where he can pitch
regularly, . and certainly that
would seem to be the best thing
for him, much as he and his many
friends hope he sticks in the ma-
jors.
Stock is considered the top
young pitching prospect in the
Baltimore farm system at this
time and just might have enough
ability to help the parent club
this year, but for his own future
another ,eason in the high minors
SC('IIIS the wisel' COtlt'S(L
If he is sent out for exper-
ience, there seems to be a strong
possibility that he might wind
up with Vancouver, B.C., In the
Pacific Coast League, where
much of the young Oriole talent
is going for seasoning. If so,
his Mason county admirers will
have several chances to watch
him in action this summer.
Stock's name was added to the
regular Baltimore roster just be-
fore the major league season
started when rookie shortstop
Ron Hansen was optioned to Van-
couver.
Staying with Baltimore, how-
ever, is a shaky position in Stock's
case for he is holding the 28th
spot on the 28-man squad allowed
under major league rules and
faces the task of keeping it
against George Zuverink, a veter-
inn relief pitcher now on the dis-
!abled list, and Brooks Robinson,
who can be carried on the squad
a a a n?m-counted returning serv-
ice man only until the end of
April. Stock lost that status him-
self when his c(mtract was trans-
ferred from the Oriole farm club
at Amarillo to the parent club.
Another thing working
against Stock sticking with the
major league club this year is
the fact that Baltimore prob-
ably has a pitching staff ranked
in ability second only to the
Yanks and Milwaukee in the
majors. Good pitching is what
the Orioles have the moat of.
Clippings from Baltimore news-
papers extolling the glittering fu-
ture foreseen for Stock continue
to reach the Journal sports desk,
two more arriving this week,

Chamimr Industrial
Committees In Joint
Study of Objectives
Joint committees of the indus-
trial affairs committee of the
Shelton Chamber of Commerce
met togetier Friday to discuss
aims and objectives for this year
with emphasis upon support of
present businesses and industries.
One of the main sentiments ex-
x'essed was need for all local or-
ganizations, both governmental
and comnnmity, to begin a pro-
gram of much closer cooperation
toward improvement of this area
in all ways, as a place to live and
a place to wm'k.
"This effort should be made and
spearheaded by the Chambey of
Commerce to encourage overall
comprehensive dgvelopment of re-
i ereational facilities, industrial
:sites. city beautification, tourist
promotion, etc.," commented Mar-
dy Stroud, who conducted the
meeting as chairman of the main
committee.
Chuck Rowe chairmans the
sub-cmnmittee on development of
present, business and industry,
Dick Yeager the sub-committee
cowan pitched excellent ball af-
ter a stuttering start. Four walks
and an error gave Jefferson a
two-run start, but the husky Blaz-
er right-hander came back to fan
13 anti allowed only three hits.
Knudson started four 8th grad-
ers---Sloan at third, Droscher at
shortstop, Doug Paulsrude at sec-
ond, and Todd at catcher. All
:urned in highly creditable per-
)rmances.

INTER-CLUB MATCH SUNDAY
Second (if the season's six sched-
uled inter-club golf matches for
Shelton' men's links team finds
Olympia Golf & Country Club vis-
iting the Bayshores course this
coming Sunday.
Team Captain Les LaBissoniere
is sounding a call to arms for all
Shelton men wishing to play to
turn out Sunday as Olympia has
sent word it will bring 35 or more
team members along.
Two weeks ago when Vashon
vi.,dtedk the local links lay-out La-
Blssonlere had ,to scare up sev-
eral more players via phone when
Vashon arrived with more dive-
tesTs than the home club had on
lland.
Lee doesn't relish a repeat of
that situation' this Sunday.
The team captain, incidentally,
has inaugm'ated a new system of
scheduling inter - club matches
which he hopes to carry on in fu-
ture years.
Instead of playing home-and-
homc matches with three oppon-
ents each season LaB[seen[ere has
scheduled six different rivals this
year, playing three at home and
hrce away, with thc understand-
ing th'tt the schedule will Ie re-
versed 'next: year.
In this manner the Shclton golf-:
ere will establish a competitive
tradition wtth six separate rivals
a year instead of three.
