As Senators Topp|e Orioles u
5-Run Eighth
Gives Win to
Hernandez
BY BURTON HAWKINS
Star Staff Writer

BALTIMORE, July 9.-Har-
mon Killebrew's long -Silenced
thundered today as
the Senators beefy slugger
crashed a pair of successive
homerS to lead Washington to
a To victory over fast-falling
Baltimore, beaten in 16 of its
last 81 home games.
Killebrew, who had Dashed
his last homer June 7, clouted
a 410-foot solo sock off Hoyt
Wilhelm to tie the score at %
in the sixth inning. Then he
pounded his sixth OF the season
with Julio Becquer aboard
when the Senators broke loose
for five runs in the eighth
against Chuck Estrada and
Skinny Brown.
The Senators, who have won
six of their last seven games,
received superb relief pitching
from Rudy Hernandez. who
won his first major league deci-
sion. The 28-year-old rookie
righthander snuffed out a
bases-loaded threat with no
damage in the seventh inning
after supplanting Hal Woode-
Schick.
Drop Orioles to Fourth
The triumph temporarily
lifted the Senators into undis-
puted possession of fifth place,
a half game ahead of the
Tigers, who were at Kansas
City for a night game. The ORR
oleS' fourth straight loss and
their sixth successive setback at
home dropped them to fourth
place as the White Sox moved
up a notch.
KillebreW, who had contrib
uted only one hit in 10 previous
efforts, also thumped a single
in sparkling the Senators IL
hit attack which included three
doubles and a triple. The ORR
oleS collected nine hits, but only
one off Hernandez in the last
three innings.
Mates Hail Hernandez
Hernandez, born in the Do
minican Republic but raised in
New York, was SWarmed by his
joyous teammates after he re-
tired the last six batters in
order. In three relief appear
anceS, totaling seven innings,
he has allowed only two hits
and no runs.
Hernandez, imported from
Charleston, w. Va, last Sum-
day, stepped into a predica-
ment in the seventh inning
with the score locked at 2-2.
Brooks Robinson and Walt
Dropo had singled with none
out to shell Woodeshick, Rob>
inSon braking at second.
Gus Triandos sacrificed and
Hernandez issued an intenI
} tional walk to Pinch hitter Bob
Boyd, jamming the bases. Dan1
gerouS Gene Woodling batted
, for Dave Nicholson, and Her4
, nandez disposed of nim on d
, foul to Becquer. Gene Steph-
ems batted for Marv Breeding,
and Rudy extricated himself
, and the Senators from THEN
deep difficulty by whipping a
, called third strike past him.
, The Orioles, who have lost
} six of eight games to the Sen
, atorS in their own back yard
, stranded 13 runners. They en-
ployed l8 players in desperate
, attempt to check their skid.
Beaten seven times in Il
: games with Washington, the
Orioles spurted into a 20 lead

first when Robinson singled,

MORE ON PUBLIC RELATIONS
RECENTLY MENTION was made Of the need for
developing public relations as an aid to our social, poll
teal and economic life. This is a matter which could and
should be looked into, and the proper impetus given
promptly.
AN INCIDENT OOK place in New York which
further points to the need for the type Of program advo-
Gated here. An orchestra from ST. Thomas accompanied
the cricketers to New York. Naturally, this group made
a number of appearances in and around New York. As
perhaps everyone knows, this combination can hold its
own with most orchestras anywhere. But there is more,
much more, to a trip like the one undertaken than meets
the eye, and much that is important can be lost unless
the ends, all the ends, are properly tied together.
AS THE ORCHESTRA began to play its first en-
gagement some confusion arose. It seemed that the visit
ing orchestra was being called upon to show that they
were unionized; that each and every member OF the Or
chestra was a member in good standing Of the Musi-
clans Union. The details are not important here, but
what is clear is that this phase Of the matter had not
been anticipated, or planned for, or even considered.
BUT MORE, AN orchestra like this one could have
picked up some money for itself, seen the country, and
carried the name of the Virgin Islands by playing a.
number of engagements in cities and towns, at least on
the eastern seaboard. That, however, required planning
and contacts, and the like, and must be done by experts
in the field.
THEN THERE IS another phase, perhaps unimpor-
tant at first glance, but nevertheless valuable to many.
Nowadays many teachers and others use the summer to
visit and study in New York and other cities. Why
should there not be a central clearing house Of informa-
ton in IN these matters? Many friends of long standing
many acquaintance, and even relatives could be re-
united through word from a central source.
