who stranded 19 base runners and

IT HAPPENED in the second
inning wiqen Jim Sargent, strap-
ping senior fighthanded pitcher
was hatting for Shelton with two

Getty resting respectively on third
and second bases. Sargent swung
at and missed a third strike pitch
which was into the dirt, hit catch-

bounced back onto the playing
field.
Pitcher George Lyle hurried to
the ball, then threw it into right-
field, allowing Fitchett to score.
Rightfielder Gary Wood fired the
ball back to the plate with such
energy that it ,fled against the

scored.

ness put two aboard with two out
in the third, wlqen a hit and a walk
put two more on with two out in
the fourth.
It was one of the finest games
the big righthander has ever turn-
ed in for the Climbers, yet he was
lucky to get a tie out of it.
Shelton had the bases full in the
fourth and ninth, two on in the
third and fifth without putting the
winning run across the plate.
The opener was a sterling loft-
handed pitching duel between
Shelton's Jerry Mallory and Che-
halls' Dave Dowling which went
to the sixth inning before the first
run scored.
THEN, WITH two out, short-
stop Allan Allie singled home Du-
ane Borovec, who had reached sec-
ond base by. forcing Anderson
(who had singled) and moving up
on Tim Wood's feeble tap to the
mound. Muscular Bob Schwarz
then smashed a home run into the
football stands in dead centerfield
to make it 3-0 for the visitors.
An unearned tally in the .sev-
enth, aided by a wide pitch and
an infield error, made it 4-0 before
the Climbers finally came to life
and gave Dowling a bad scare in
the final time at bat ;+.. and but
for a bad break might have
snatched the decision out of the
fire, too.
With one down, Bob Fitchett
whacked a triple over the right-
fielder's head and Garth Getty
singled through the middle to
break the Climber goose-egg. Aft-
er Dennis Temple walked, A1
Smith hit a sinking liner to left
which Mac Arrington made a dive
for but couldn't hold. Getty, think-
ing the ball might be caught, was
drifting back toward second and
didn't immediately see the ball fall
free, ,* so when Schwarz picked it up
and-fired it to third Getty was
forced for the second out. Walks
to Ray Manke and Mallory then

fanned for the fourth time to end
the game.
tIAD GETTY made it to ,third
another run would have come home
and the Climbers would have" had
another out to go to keep their
rally alive.
Dowling struck out 16 batters
with a whistling fast ball. and a
beautlfull change-up which he
threw sparingly but with great ef-
t'ectiveness.
Kerm Livermm'e bagged the
first hit off his delivery in the
fourth and Getty the second in the
fifth. Dowling's worst trouble was
with his control. He walked Smith

promptly wild pitched them into

opening meet, was the only other
time this year the Blazers have
been defeated in any of the three
divisions in which juhior high
track competition is conducted.
THIS TIME Centralia won the
Class A competition by the nar-
rbw margin of 51 1/3 to 42 2/3.
Jefferson won the Class C division
by a 42-35 count.
Another unusual feature of last
week's meet was the defeat of the
Blazer Class A relay team. Cen-
tralia ran the 440 yards in an out-
standing 48.9 seconds, well over a
full second faster than the Blazer
qlmrtet has ever traversed the dis-
tance. Blazer relay teams, in all
three divisions, have seldom seen
any rival's heels daring Brickert's
stint as coach.
Other commendable performan-
ces last week were John Sells'
51'5, '' Class A shot put, Mike
Scrafford's 27'55" Class C shot
put, Bill Miller's 15'3=" Class C
broad jump, and the Class C Blaz-
er relay team's 55.9 second mark.
THIS WEEK the Blazers go to
Olympia to participate in the sub-
district meet with Jefferson and
Washington of Olympia, N o r t h
Thurston and St. Martins.
The Centralia results:

Shelton 4& 2/3)

Simons S, Corky Petersm= S. 18'4".
SHOT PUT-=- John Sells S, Gary

Sohps alone tallied enough
ints to have won the cinder
crown for Shelton, the underclass-
imen contributing 265 markers
l against the juniors' 20 1/3. That
left 12/ points for the three sen-
iors on the squad.
Three sophs won blue rihlons
--Roy Buzzard In his s,rprise
triumph in the hail mile, Vlnee
Bostwick in the quarter mile,
and Dave Shaxpes in the discus
--and contributed two legs of
the victorious relay team's suc-
cess, where Bostw|ck and Sher-
ry Hbert ran the second and
third laps Fespectively.
Halbert is the most versatile of
the sophomore lot, participating in
four e v e nt s and contributing
points in each one.
The juniors had two blue rib-
bon winners in miler Rawlin Mc-
Inelly and Tom Kendall, who
shared the pole vault with senior

Make Good Showing
The Shelton Stock Car Club, the
"Krazy Auto's", did well Sunday
at the Elms race track by taking
home a trophy in the 'B' trophy
d:mh, won by Bqb Nault in car No.
38, J. D. Hoosier won first plhce
in the first heat race in car No. 36.
Also running from Shelton were
Bill Smith with J. D. Hoosier in
car No. 36, Elmer Strope in car
No. 5-X who came in third, Leo
Nault in car No. 35, who rolled
over in the fifth lap after losing a
wheel. Johnny La,Bresh and Bob
Nault raced in car No. 38 and
Harold Schnitzer in car No. 34, set
one of the fastest times on the
track.
The next race is May 17, at 1
p.m. at Elma. The Shelton Club
and Association were happy at the
good turn out of Shelton race
fans.
could be cited in the cases of Har-
ley Somers and Jim Sargent,
Highclimbcr athletes who came up
with outstanding performances in
last weekend's crucial competi-
tions in the track and baseball ac-
tivities.
The Grapeview mior had to
lay out for a week, missing two
track meets, because of a pain-
fui boil on one of his ankles. The
rest possibly gaw him the extra
energy to rm| hLs finest low
hurdles race ,d the year and win
that event for the Climbers.
Sargent had spent a week out of
sc.hool with the flu prior to the
Chehalis series Friday but pitched
the £inest game of his prep base-
ball career in that 2-2 ten-inning
deadlock with the Bcarcats.
$ * $
Elma's failure to provide the an-
ticipated championship competi-
tion in Saturday's track meet can
be laid to a series of unfortunate
events which badly weakened the
Eagle cinder squad.
Two strong blue ribbon
threats never got to the meet at
all when sprinter George Peek
quit the squad just hours prior
to the competition and pole
vtmlter Mike Murphy was
bmmced from the squmi for dis-
ciplinary reons.
Then. in the competition itself,
Bob Beerbower failed to qualify in
the sprint eliminations Saturday
afternoon and Roger Weld took a
bad spill which Imocked him out
of the raae completely during the
running of the low hurdles. He
had won the highs a short time
earlier and had won his heat in
the afternoon qualifying in the
lows so was a favorite for the
finals.
The loss of Peek weakened the
Eagle relay team so much it failed
to even place.
Shelton's. junior legion baseball
kids will get a break this summer
fi'om the assistance Jack Mallory
has volunteered to give Coach Bob
Eacrett.
Mallory, one of the outstand-
ing.catehers in Hight;limber diet-
mond history, shmdd be able to
help the Sheiton Jay-ells consid'-
erble with their hitting as he
had the good forhme to learn
some of the tricks of that lm-
lmrtmtt baseball art from one

league annals -- Rogers llorns-
by -- (h, ring the el,ring training
sessi., Malh)ry p.t: in with the
Chi(,ago Cnhs a ('otq)le of years
ago.
Mallory signed a professional
contract with the Cub organiz-
ation the (lay he graduated from
h'ene S. Reed high school in 1956,
went to the Cub training camp in
the spring of 1957 and played for
a short time in the Cub farm sys-
tem that year until a sore arm
forced him to quit in mid-season.
A good hitter in high school,
Mallory was doing very well with
the bat when his arm was injured
and appeared to have a good fu-
ture with the Cubs had he been
able to stay with it.
CHAPTER 3 ON WES STOCK
Our weekly report on the prog-
ress of Wes Stock's professional
baseball career is one of mixed re-
suits this week.
He had a rough day last Wed-
nesday when he relieved Balti-
more's starting pitcher with one
out in the first inning an(} pitched
his longest relief stint so far, 3 2/3
innings, .against Detroit before be-
ing relieved for a pinch-hitter him-
sell He was bombed for six hits,
three earned and one unearned
run, gave one walk, struck out
three.
Two days later he came Im<,k
again and became a party to
some odd strategy dn the part ot
Mnagrr Paul Richards. Stm'k
flnislted the seventh inning as a
relief pitcher, retiring the only
two men he faced, but was re-
lieved for a pinch-hitter as Bal-
timore came to bat in the top
of the eighth in spite of the fa(,t
that the Orioles held a 3-2 ad-
vantageLover Kansas City.
The Athletics then jumped on
Stock's reliefer, Bill Johnson, for
four runs in the bottom of the
eighth and wo the game, 6-3. It
isn't the usual strategy to change
)itchers under such circumstances,
md one wonders if Baltimore
vould have won the game if
Richards had left Stock in to pro-
tect that lead since he had retired
the two batters he faced without
trouble.

opening meet, was the only other
time this year the Blazers have
been defeated in any of the three
divisions in which juhior high
track competition is conducted.
THIS TIME Centralia won the
Class A competition by the nar-
rbw margin of 51 1/3 to 42 2/3.
Jefferson won the Class C division
by a 42-35 count.
Another unusual feature of last
week's meet was the defeat of the
Blazer Class A relay team. Cen-
tralia ran the 440 yards in an out-
standing 48.9 seconds, well over a
full second faster than the Blazer
qlmrtet has ever traversed the dis-
tance. Blazer relay teams, in all
three divisions, have seldom seen
any rival's heels daring Brickert's
stint as coach.
Other commendable performan-
ces last week were John Sells'
51'5, '' Class A shot put, Mike
Scrafford's 27'55" Class C shot
put, Bill Miller's 15'3=" Class C
broad jump, and the Class C Blaz-
er relay team's 55.9 second mark.
THIS WEEK the Blazers go to
Olympia to participate in the sub-
district meet with Jefferson and
Washington of Olympia, N o r t h
Thurston and St. Martins.

Sohps alone ta llied enough
ints to have won the cinder
crown for Shelton, the underclass-
imen contributing 265 markers
l against the juniors' 20 1/3. That
left 12/ points for the three sen-
iors on the squad.
Three sophs won blue rihlons
--Roy Buzzard In his s,rprise
triumph in the hail mile, Vlnee
Bostwick in the quarter mile,
and Dave Shaxpes in the discus
--and contributed two legs of
the victorious relay team's suc-
cess, where Bostw|ck and Sher-
ry Hbert ran the second and
third laps Fespectively.
Halbert is the most versatile of
the sophomore lot, participating in
four e v e nt s and contributing
points in each one.
The juniors had two blue rib-
bon winners in miler Rawlin Mc-
Inelly and Tom Kendall, who
shared the pole vault with senior
Aubuchon of Montesano.

Make Good Showing
The Shelton Stock Car Club, the
"Krazy Auto's", did well Sunday
at the Elms race track by taking
home a trophy in the 'B' trophy
d:mh, won by Bqb Nault in car No.
38, J. D. Hoosier won first plhce
in the first heat race in car No. 36.
Also running from Shelton were
Bill Smith with J. D. Hoosier in
car No. 36, Elmer Strope in car
No. 5-X who came in third, Leo
Nault in car No. 35, who rolled
over in the fifth lap after losing a
wheel. Johnny La,Bresh and Bob
Nault raced in car No. 38 and
Harold Schnitzer in car No. 34, set
one of the fastest times on the
track.
The next race is May 17, at 1
p.m. at Elma. The Shelton Club
and Association were happy at the
good turn out of Shelton race
fans.
could be cited in the cases of Har-
ley Somers and Jim Sargent,
Highclimbcr athletes who came up
with outstanding performances in
last weekend's crucial competi-
tions in the track and baseball ac-
tivities.
The Grapeview mior had to
lay out for a week, missing two
track meets, because of a pain-
fui boil on one of his ankles. The
rest possibly gaw him the extra
energy to rm| hLs finest low
hurdles race ,d the year and win
that event for the Climbers.
Sargent had spent a week out of
sc.hool with the flu prior to the
Chehalis series Friday but pitched
the £inest game of his prep base-
ball career in that 2-2 ten-inning
deadlock with the Bcarcats.

Elma's failure to provide the an-
ticipated championship competi-
tion in Saturday's track meet can
be laid to a series of unfortunate
events which badly weakened the
Eagle cinder squad.
Two strong blue ribbon
threats never got to the meet at
all when sprinter George Peek
quit the squad just hours prior
to the competition and pole
vtmlter Mike Murphy was
bmmced from the squmi for dis-
ciplinary reons.
Then. in the competition itself,
Bob Beerbower failed to qualify in
the sprint eliminations Saturday
afternoon and Roger Weld took a
bad spill which Imocked him out
of the raae completely during the
running of the low hurdles. He
had won the highs a short time
earlier and had won his heat in
the afternoon qualifying in the
lows so was a favorite for the
finals.
The loss of Peek weakened the
Eagle relay team so much it failed
to even place.
Shelton's. junior legion baseball
kids will get a break this summer
fi'om the assistance Jack Mallory
has volunteered to give Coach Bob
Eacrett.
Mallory, one of the outstand-
ing.catehers in Hight;limber diet-
mond history, shmdd be able to
help the Sheiton Jay-ells consid'-
erble with their hitting as he
had the good forhme to learn
some of the tricks of that lm-
lmrtmtt baseball art from one

of the greatest hitters in major
league annals -- Rogers llorns-
by -- (h, ring the el,ring training
sessi., Malh)ry p.t: in with the
Chi(,ago Cnhs a ('otq)le of years
ago.
Mallory signed a professional
contract with the Cub organiz-
ation the (lay he graduated from
h'ene S. Reed high school in 1956,
went to the Cub training camp in
the spring of 1957 and played for
a short time in the Cub farm sys-
tem that year until a sore arm
forced him to quit in mid-season.
A good hitter in high school,
Mallory was doing very well with
the bat when his arm was injured
and appeared to have a good fu-
ture with the Cubs had he been
able to stay with it.
CHAPTER 3 ON WES STOCK
Our weekly report on the prog-
ress of Wes Stock's professional
baseball career is one of mixed re-
suits this week.
He had a rough day last Wed-
nesday when he relieved Balti-
more's starting pitcher with one
out in the first inning an(} pitched
his longest relief stint so far, 3 2/3
innings, .against Detroit before be-
ing relieved for a pinch-hitter him-
sell He was bombed for six hits,
three earned and one unearned
run, gave one walk, struck out
three.
Two days later he came Im<,k
again and became a party to
some odd strategy dn the part ot
Mnagrr Paul Richards. Stm'k
flnislted the seventh inning as a
relief pitcher, retiring the only
two men he faced, but was re-
lieved for a pinch-hitter as Bal-
timore came to bat in the top
of the eighth in spite of the fa(,t
that the Orioles held a 3-2 ad-
vantageLover Kansas City.
The Athletics then jumped on
Stock's reliefer, Bill Johnson, for
four runs in the bottom of the
eighth and wo the game, 6-3. It
isn't the usual strategy to change
)itchers under such circumstances,
md one wonders if Baltimore
vould have won the game if
Richards had left Stock in to pro-
tect that lead since he had retired
the two batters he faced without
trouble.
