The 20-year-old flychaser he reaches his majority tomorrow whose organized baseball exper ience is limited to one year with Trenton In the Class C interstate League In 1943, took the big Jump from the Navy to the Phillies and made good right from the start. Ennls bashed out four blows yesterday tq pace the Phils to a 9-3 triumph over the Cincinnati Rods for the Quaker's sixth triumph in their last night games. Two of his hits were doubles to place him in a tic for the most two-base hits with St. Louis' Stan Muslal. He also drove In a pair of runs to help drive Cincy's Joe Beggs off tho hill for his initial setback of tho year. Dodgers Stretch Lead The high-flying Brooklyn Dod gers Increased their National League lead to four and one halt games their largest of the jeason when they outshiggcd the' Pittsburgh Pirates 13-8 as the St. Louis Cardinals were beaten by thfl Boston Braves 9-5. Tho Boston Red Sox main tained their six and a half game American League advantage over the New York Yankees when they edged . out the St. Louis Browns 5-4 on tho strength of Ted Williams' 10th homer of the year with one man on. The victory was Boston's eight straight without a defeat and kept their home record clean against the western clubs. Umpire Hul Woofer ordered Brownie Pitcher Jack Kramer off the field in the fourth Inning following a shoving match be tween the arbiter and the St. Louis httrler when Kramer ob jected to a close decision at first base. Kramer heaved the ball over the grandstand us ho left the field. Ruffing Blanks Chisox The New York Yankees made It three In a row over tho Chi cago White Sox when Huffing, the 42-ycar-old veteran, pitched the Yankees to a 4-0 tflumph for his liUSlth of his Kl-year-old big league career. Manager Bill Dickey, who was celebrating his 39th birthday, knocked in two runs. A pinch hit home run with the bases full by Prank Secory in the 12th Inning gavo the Chicago Cubs a 10-6 victory over the New York Glanls. Once again, Chicago's Borowy failed to go the route as he blew a 60 lead when the Glanls tallied three times in each of the eighth and ninth innings, tied the game and forced the contest Into overtime. Hudson hurled tho Washington Senators to a 40 sluituot win over the Cleveland Indians, limit ing the Indians lo four singles. A three-run outburst against Lemon, a converted outfielder, in the first inning, practically set tled the game. Detroit -and the Philadelphia Athletics were not scheduled.

Principally, it would determine sentiment of the genera public. Aside from the vocal and active proponents of the proposed change in form of government, there has been no general public expression of opinion. An election would de termine desires of the city's residents. If the proposal were beaten at the polls, the city manager idea could be dropped, thus saving expenditure of further time, effort and expense. A great deal of work must be done in preparing a charter amendment. We must decide whether we are to continue the present council form of government with two councilmen from each ward, or adopt a system, such as many cities use, where one councilman would be elected from each ward and an equal number selected at large, or whether a commission manager form is more desirable. It must be determined whether the manager is to be dele gated certain exclusive powers, or is to be subject in all matters to the council or commission, At the present time the offices of recorder and treasurer are elective in Koseburg. Under a city manager system, the usual practice is to fill these offices by appointment. This, in turn, raises the question of how a police judge, now com bined with the recorder's office, is to be named whether by appointment by the manager or by the council. These are only a very few of the many factors entering into revision of the charter to provide a city manager form of government. It is quite obvious that it would be impos sible to prepare the amendment in time to advertise for 30 days and hold an election prior to July 15, ,the date when tax levies must be certified to the county assessor, or even early in August, should the council be successful in securing from the assessor an extension of time for submitting the levy. If, however, the council should find it desirable and proper to submit only tho question of a tax levy to pay salaries and expenses connected with the change in government, this could be dono by late July or early August, thus permitting the tax to bo lovied for first quarter payment in November of this year. There then would be time to prepare a charter amendmont to be brought to a vote in the early fall, after all policy matters had been thoroughly disciissod. There arises, of course, the possibility that the special tax might be authorized but that the charter revision would be defeated. Tho city then would be in the position of having money to pay a manager, but would bo without authority to employ bucIi a person. The city, however, would not be able to spend the money, as it would have been lovied and collected for a specified purpose. The funds, would, therefore, be held until the next regular budget-making period and then treated sis cash on hand to bo applied as a deduction. Thus there would be no loss to taxpayers. A special tax levy not to exceed two mills probably would be sufficient to meet the cost of inaugurating tho city man ager form of government. County Assessor Ned Dixon reports Uoseburg's current assessed valuation to bo $4,955,140. lie estimates that the assessment now being compiled, and against which taxes duo in November will be levied, will be in excoss of $6 mil lion. A levy of one and one-half to two mills should, then, be ample to moot the cost of a city manager, roughly estimated at from $8,000 to $10,000 for the first year. It is our opinion that tho wise course is to submit the matter at once to Roseburg residonts to determine their de sires. If this is to be done in time to levy taxes this year, the council has no time to waste and should call tho election at the earliest possible date. If the people don't want a city manager, there is no use spending timo and money on preparation of a charter amend ment. If, on the other hand, sentiment is in favor of a city manager, then the new form should bo provided us quickly as possible. . Lineup, Pardner GALLUP, N.

Tie With Oakland For League Lead (By The Associated Press) The San Francisco Seals Rained a virtual tie in the Pacific Coast Baseball League through their third successive defeat of Oakland Acorns and today stood only a fraction in the percentage oenind the laltenne Uakland club. On a 8-6 victory last night the Seals forged ahead, 44 to 43, in games won but had lost 26, one more than the Acorns. This gavo the Oakianders a percentage edge of .632 to .629. San Francisco, leader of the circuit until the Oaks overtook them last month, nicked three Oakland chuckers for 11 hits for the triumph. Seward, winning pitcher, went Into the sixth frame with a 71 load, hut the Acorns rallied for two runs in that frame and put over three In the seventh. hewara yielded uic mouna to Werle, who was replaced by Kokko. The loss was charged to Vandeiiberg. Stars Down Angelenos Hollywood's Stars continued their rampage at the expense of the Los Angeles Angels, winning their third consecutive victory, 7 to 3, in an 11-inning contest. Los Angeles, with tho bases loaded, missed a chance to win the 10th frame, when Mallory flicd out to retire the side. The Stars broke a 2-2 tie and shoved across five runs In the last inning, and the Angels came back with an abor tive attempt In their half which produced only one run. Barrett pitched five-hit ball to shut out the Sacramento Solons for a 6-0 Portland victory, the second In a row for the Beavers. Portland fashioned three runs in tho fourth Inning out of singles by Kscobar and Storey, Reich's double, and infield out and a wild pitch, and scored three more in the fifth. The fifth-inning spree sent .Sacramento starter Fletcher to the showers and Beasley fin ished the game. The San Diego Padres regained fourth place on a 6-2 decision over the Seattle Rainiers, as the Solons dropped down to sixth place. Seats turned in the vic tory, holding the Rainier batters under control until the ninth frame, in which he gave up three successive singles. San Diego put across four unearned runs in the second inning. Tips Himself SOUTH BKND. Ind., One anonymous finder of a lost purse has set a charge of slightly less than one per cent on honesty. William S. Stevens reported to imlh-e that he lost his wallet con taining $230 while watching a ball game.

Most of the inevitable overflow crowd, however, will be on hand to experience the first Judo mat It? v K. Walter Achiu exhibition in local history the first of its kind in the Pacific northwest In more than live years. .The Judo headliner will match Walter Achiu against Paavo Katonen. Judo is wrestled with oppon ents wearing jackets. The rivals toss each other about the ring like a bulldog playing with a rag cat. No shoulders are pinned to the mat and the only manner in which a victory is registered is for one competitor to yell "uncle" or to be left unconscious on the mat. The strangle hold, taboo in catch-as-can grappling, is permit ted. Achiu, the Chinese jiu-jitsu ar tist, is a veteran of Judo, but he wasn't aware at first that his Finnish opponent was also experi enced at tlie sport when he ac ceded Katonen's challenge fol lowing a fistic flurry during a match here two weeks ago when Achiu relereed the bout between Katonen and Joe Lynam. The lat ter won when Achiu disqualified Katonen, so Saturday's engage ment will be a grudge aifair. Achiu demanded that the winner take the entire ourse, which was agreeable to Katonen. The main event - will be a Donnybrook and another capacity crowd is almost certain to be on hand. 'lne Kiser-Nazarian prelimin' ary will not take a No. 2 ticket, nowevcr. Kiser will depend on sDeed and agility to balance the books against the stronger and more rugged villain. Fact of the matter is, the seml windup may steal the show for action and color. Ttie customary three-round boxing exhibition, featuring local talent, will open the program at 8:30 P. M. Elton Owen will referee all three matches.
