Hollies Defeat
Beavers, Padres
Blast Seals '
By JIM BACON
(Associated Pres. Sporu Writer
It looks more and more as If
the San Diego Padres will get
atop the Pacific Coast League
only by taking the lead away
from the Hollywood Stars, di
rectly. Thursday night was the same
old story. The Padres slugged
out an 18 to 5 win over Los
Angeles while the Stars pitched
to a 7 to 5 win over Port
land. When San Diego wins, so
does Hollywood.
The Stars thus maintained their
three-game lead over the Padres.
The two tangle in a seven-game
series starting June 7.
The Padres climhed three An
gel pitchers for 18 hits, includ
ing four aboard for his 17th of
the season. Other Padres hitting
for the walk-around were Harvey
Storey, Dain Clay and Luke Eas
ter who got his 16th.
At Hollywood, Wlllard Rams
dell knuckle-balled the Beavers
with an eight-hit performance.
It was his fifth win. He got
stellar help at the plate from
Al Unser who drove in three
twlnk tallies In the third with
a homer and doubled in another
In the fifth. Gene Handley's stick
ing was fancy too three singles
and a double. The loss was Vince
Di Biasi's sixth.
Heinz Becker doubled In the
12th Inning at Oakland to score
two runs and give his Seattle
K'tlniers a 6 to 4 win over the
Oaks. Becker's double was hit at
rlghtfielder Jackie Jensen, the
University of California's great
football and baseball star play
ing his first professional game.
Jensen, signed Thursday for a
SSO.000 bonus, couldn't quite get
to the ball. Jensen filed and
grounded out in his two times
at bat.
Al Lien southpawed the San
Francisco Seals to a 3 to 1 win
over Sacramento although the
winners were outhit 8 to 6.

Ills control was off, and he
walked six, hit two batsmen. One

Chiefs Easily
Trim Yoncalla
By 7-1 Score
Lewis Holds Visitors To
3 Hits, Whiffs 10; West
And Edgar Star At Bat
The Roseburg Umpqua Chiefs
chalked up another win, mak
ing it six out of eight starts, as
Chiefs pitcher Dick Lewis held
the visiting Yoncalla aggrega
tion to three bingles and a lone
run. Roseburg parleyed nine hits
into seven tallies, making the
final count 7-1 at Finlay Field
Thursday night.
The local baseball combination
had big third and seventh in
nings, three scores being tallied
in each. Yoncalla got its one and
only run in the initial canto,
with Rice', their lead-off man, on
an error scoring, after drawing
a base on balls. The invaders
never seriously threatened after
that.
For Roseburg, Norm West
turned in the siar performance
In both the hitting and runs
battedin department. The Sen
ior High School basketball, base
ball and football assistant coach
drew three singles for four times
at bat and baited in four team
mates. In addition, he crossed
the plate twice himself, there
by accounting for six of Rose
burg's seven runs.
Virg Sanders scored the first
Roseburg run In the initial stan
za after getting to first on field
er's choice. West batted him in
with a single. The Chiefs sat
the next frame out, then Virg
Sanders, leading off in the third,
and brother George each drew
bases on balls. West singled, scor
ing both lads. Jerry Huggins
followed with a base hit of his
own, scoring West, who had
stolen second.
Wilh the exception of singles
by Lewis and Hal Edgar In the
fourth, the Chiefs did little but
provide pitching practice for the
opposing chucker, during the en
suing three innings.
The locals .livened up again
In the seventh, with Edgar lead
ing off. He was hit by a pitched
ball, then was advanced to sec
ond when Virg Sanders drew a
base on balls. George Sanders
filed out, with Edgar scoring on
the throw-In- and Virg Sanders
going to second. West singled
again, then Virg stole home.
Huggins grounded out short to
first and West traveled home on
the fielder's choice.
Lewis Whiffs 10 Men
Yoncalla used the services of
two pitchers, with Cox starting
the action. After allowing three
bases on balls and five hits, he
was relieved by Ditter in the
fourth. Ditter struck out six, al
lowed four hits and two bases
on balls.
For Roseburg, Lewis went all
the way. He struck out 10, walk
ed seven and allowed three well
scattered hits, one each in the
third, sixth and eighth innings.
Yoncalla's Baker garnered two
for four, and Thompson hit once
In three trips. Hal Edgar hit
three for five.
The Chiefs were well sprinkled
with base thieves, Virg Sanders
being the top otlender. He stole
four bases. Brother George and
Norm West were not far behind
with two apiece, while Stan

Cardinals Hit
Winning Stride
In National
Musial, Slaughter Find'
Batting Eyes; Cleveland
Makes Sorry Showing
By JACK HAND
(Associated Press Sporu Writer)
Watch the St. Louis Cardinals
go, now that Stan Musial and
L'nos Slaughter have started to
hit.
The Red Birds probably can't
win the pennant, but they defi
nitely don't belong down in sixth
or seventh place.
When the Cards limped home
from the East, Musial was slump
ing and Slaughter was so bad
he had been benched for a few
games. Home cooking and morn
ing practice at Sportsman's Park
fixed that.
In 10 games at St. Louis. Mu
sial hit .316, batted in eight runs
and smashed three homers.
Slaughter did even better with
a .352 average for the home
stand and nine more RBIs.
Both Musial and Slaughter hit
home runs last night in the Cards'
13-6 victory over Pittsburgh. It
was the third straight win for
the rejuvenated Birds and their
fourth in tht last five games.
Ralph Kiner got his 10th home
run of the season for the Pirates
to go one up on Johnny Mize.
St. Louis' victory in the only
National League game moved
them into a fifth-place tie with
the Phillies.
When rain washed out the New
York Yankee-Detroit game, both
the Boston Red Sox and Wash
ington Senators gained a half
game on the leaders.
Bosox Dump Browns
Mow five back of ihe Yanks,
the Boston Red Sox made it six
out of eight since their return
to Fenway Park by dumping the
St. Louis Browns, 7-5.
Mel Parnell failed to go the
route for the first time in eight
starts, giving way to Tex Hugn
son, the eventual winner, when
the Browns went out front tem
porarily in the three-run eighth. :
Ted "Williams singled with the
bases loaded in the eighth to
drive in the winning runs off
loser Ned Garver.
Cleveland closed its disastrous
Eastern tour by bowing to Wash
ington, 5-4. The world champs
lost 7 of 9 in the East and 10
of 12 since leaving home. j
Gene Bearden, world series
hero In '48, failed to go the route
for the fifth straight time. The
lefthanded knuckler was mauled
for five runs in less than three
innings, although Larry Doby :
gave him a two-run working ;
mirgin with his sixth homer in
the first.
Mickey Haefner, who stopped
the Indians with one hit May ,
10, scattered seven hits for his i
fourth victory. He has trimmed
the Tribe 17 times in 25 starts
during his major league career,
Al Evans led the Senators at
tack with four singles.

year, including the shot put for
