In 1936 Olympia replaced the Gibson
Cleaners, otherwise the Northwest League
retained the same identity. Pete Flagstead,
like Tobin an old pro catcher with his youth
gone, managed Olymlfia. It was quite a
rivalry, until Flagstead slid into home one
night early in August in a game at Olympia
and snapped a small wrist bone in Tobin's
throwing arm. The mishap had a debilitating
effect on the Loggers and they skidded to
fifth place. This late-season toboggan ride, a
depressing timberworkers strike during the
summer, and the heavy cost of importing so
much outside talent tolled the death knell
of semi-pro baseball in Shelton. There was
no Northwest League team here in 1937 or
anytime since, although a completely
local-talent team played in tile then
n|uch-weakcned Timber League until World
War "
F'riday night's old-timers game in
Tacoma serves as a fitting goad to dust off
the memory of baseball's "good old days" in
Shelton. They never will be equalled.
SPORTS SPLINTERS No mention of
the Timber and Northwest league Loggers is
complete withou! including the names of
two non-playing figures, Nick Doherty and
Gas Graf. The Hurculean task of raising the
sizeable sums inwflved to bank-roll those
teams in a small town along with all the
myriad details of the business end of the
operation fell on the willing, energetic and
capable shoulders of this pair of Shelton
businessmen.

Athletics last weekend retained
the District fastball championship
they'd won in 1968 under the
name of Gait Oil by snatching a
title tilt from the Olympia
Senators which seemed beyond
reach•
The A's rallied for four runs in
the bottom of the sixth to nip the
Senators, 4-3, Sunday afternoon
after having lost a 4-0 decision
just ahead of it.
The Athletics win came
through the winners bracket by
capturing two easy victories
Saturday, 9-1 over the Flying O's
and 4-1 over the Senators. Bill
Nutt pitched both games and
tried to make it three straight by
going in the Sunday opener, but
his teammates couldn't produce
any run-support against Gale
McGrath's fine pitching, garnering
one lone blow in the shutout loss.
The District title rally in the
finale was constructed on Jim
Witson's lead-off single, Rick
Meyer's triple, Bob Tobin's single,
a fielder's choice, a Senator boot,
Ran Mickelson's single, a walk to
pinch-hitter Bill Nutt forcing Tom
Marshall home with the victory
run.
Nutt then relieved starter Dan
Kaufman and closed the door on
the Senators in the top of the
seventh to preserve the lead and
earn for the Athletics their second
straight District championship plus
a berth in the state tournament
which opened today.
Nutt was chosen as the
tourney's Most Valuable Player
and joined teammates Meyer,
Mickelson and Leans on the
tournament all-star team.
Two other Shelton teams in the
District tournament,. Gott Oil and
O.K. Rooters, were eliminated
early in the going.
The Athletics were in
competition as Olympia Fastball
champions, having attained thal
elevated honor by winning their
final three league games last week.
two over the Olympia Brewers,
4-1 and 3-0, plus an I I-2 triumph
over the Flying O's with Nutt
pitching all three games.
