AP SPORTS ROUNDUP By HUGH FULLERTON, JR. NEW YORK, June 10— George Trautman, boss of Mmm-“ League baseball, raises an ozjection | to an inference in this column that | there might be some connection be-| tween the recent baseball scandal| and the low salaries paid to some| Minor League players . The player involved, Trautman points | out, was collecting a salary some-| what above the general scale, | | Timmy Temerario, now line coach | for the Detroit Lions, tells this one| about the losing streak that chased | him right out of baseball i Timmy was coaching a team of “hitless wonders” through a long losing streak at Denison University .......then one day the team found itself in the unique position of having the bases full with no one out. . .. . desperately seeking a run to break the “jinx,” they decided to try a squeeze play. . . the attempted bunt was just a pop fly to the pit- cher, who wheeled around and threw to third. From there it went to second and, to first, killing off all the runners. . . . “four putouts!” ex- claims Timmy. “That’s how radly things were going. It convinced me Laseball was not for me.” e — WESTERN LEAGUE Final scores of games played last night in the Western International League are as follows: Salem 8; Tacoma T7. Bremerton 5; Yakima 4.
