Padres, Stars Boast Wins; Beavers Drop Doubleheader By The Associated Press San Diego and Hollywood appar ently are not conceding the Pac ific Coast league pennant to Oak land. The Padres from the south swept a seven-game set from Los Angeles with 10-6 and 6-5 wins yesterday, while Hollywood tamed Portland twice, 5-1 and 8-7, to make it six out o seven in their series. Oakland was hard-pressed to split with Seattle, 0-5 and 5-3. The Oaks found their "1 a d whittled to seven games over the Padres, 7V4 over Hollywood. Still quite comfortable margins, o f course. The Oaks just managed to take the Seattle series, four games to three. San Francisco wound up with a four-three edge over Sacramento after trading close ones yesterday, 1-0 for the Seals, 6-5 for the Solons. Manny Perez twirled . a two-hit shutout to beat Matt Sur kont in the opener, decided b y Dario Lodigiani's double and Joe Grace's single. Jim Tabor's two run single in the ninth gave the Solons the nightcap. Hollywood got five-hit pitch ing job from Pete Mondorff, chalk ing up his first win as a starter, and then went on to win for hard luck Herb Karpel in the after piece. Frank Austin hit his first two homers of the year in the second game for the Portlands. Oakland was held to four hits by Rainier Jim Davis, but bounced back with four runs in the first inning of the closer to even honors against Paul Richards' hard-fighting Seattle crew. Rainicrs Frank Pittsburgh Breaks Winning Streak Of Redding Browns (By Uie Associated Press) A. lusty four-bagger by (Pitts burg pilot Vince Di Maggio witn one aboard snapped the Redding Browns' Far West league w i n streak at nine straight last night. The Browns went down 1-3 to the Diamonds, garnering their only tally on a homer by manager Ray Perry. In Saturday's action, Don Rosburg, Brown rookie hurlet making his first pro start, twirled a six-hitter over the Diamonds to win, 5 to 1. Speaking of fancy pitching, Dick Waibel of the Eugene Larks chalked up a one hitter as his team blasted Marysville, 14 to 1. The Peaches Saturday beat the Larks, 8 to 5. Lefty Don Jones limited the Larks to four hits and struck out 13, but he gave 12 walks. Gerald Merritt's eight inning double with the bases jammed gave Klamath Falls a 4-to-2 win over Reno last night. The Silver Sox nipped a Gem raliy in the ninth Saturday t o squeeze out an 8-to-7 win. The Medford Rogues swept their three-game series with Wil lows by winning last night, 10 to Cheney Studs Fall In Tight Contest, 1-0 By GEORGE CASTILLO News-Review S ports Writex There were no tears at Rose burg'' Tinlay field Sunday after noon because the Chiefs' Norval Ritchey came to bat in the bot tom half of the ninth with two outs and a man on third and cracked a beautiful single to left center to score the only run of the game and snatch a 1-0 vic tory from the powerful Cheney Studs of Central Point. The Frank Meriwell victory put the Chiefs within striking distance of the league leading Studs and also marked the first league loss for the leaders. Now -both teams have an equal number of wins, nine, and Roseburg has two losses to Central Point's one. Dra matically enough, the last game will probably be between the two clubs. It will be plryed at Central Point either Aug. 27 or sept. 3. In the fatal ninth, the Studs had gone down in order and the game had all the earmarks of an extra inning affair, but George Sanders came to the plate in the bottom half and smashed a hard grounder between first and second which Fawcett bobbled. but second base man Stamen picked up and threw over first base and into the dug out. This allowed Sanders to take second automatically. Then the Chiefs' John Linde f.ied out and newcomer Jack Smith was thrown out, but Sanders got to third. It was then that Ritchey took the hero's role to end the game. The Chiefs threatened three times to push across the big one, but that path from third to home got longer and longer as the game progressed. In the last of the fifth. Kirpatrick looped a high fly into right field that turned into a triple. DeBernardi tried for a bunt with Kirkpatrick racing in but it popped up to pitcher Paul Gehramn and Kirkpatrick couldn't make it back. Then in the seventh, Linde lined a single and catcher Jack Smith followed him with a rousing dou ble to put men on second and third, but this rally died when Ritchey fanned and Kirkpatrick grounded out. The Studs threatened in the sixth but Linde doused the rally by making a spectatcular one-handed catch of Norm Lucich's hot grounder which would have scored Gitzen. The statistics give a fair idea of equal ability of the teams. Bus Spore,- and Paul Gehrman, both of whom pitched the entire game, each allowed six hits. Sporer gave up two walks and Gehrman one. The Chiefs played spotless ball while Central Point was cred ited with one error. Sporer struck out nine and Gehrman had three' to his credit. Jack Smith, the surprise acquis! tion from Eugene in the state league took over the catching chores and did a fine ob of it. The regular catcher, Norval Ritchey, was shifted to right field.

This match was slated for 30 minutes but Stojack took the match with the only fall by dizzying Peters with an airplane spin. The final event between Lee Gra ble and Ace Abbot was the real crowd thriller. Grable took the first fall by default when Ace Ab bot downed a spectator with a backhand. It happened when Gra ble was thrown out of the ring into the laps of the judges and Abbot climbed through after him.

Cards Fall The Cincinnati Reds dropped the Cards into fourth place as lefty Ken Raffensbergcr whipped them, 3-2. The Reds helped themselves to sixth place with assistance from the Pittsburgh Pirates who swept both ends of a doubleheader from the Cubs, 7-4 and 2-0. The front-running Detroit Tigers discovered a new way to gain ground in the American league race. While they sat idle because of wet grounds in St. Louis, the Bengals saw their hold on first place become a bit more secure the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox lost while the Cleveland Indians divided a doubleheader. A four-hit batting performance by outfielder Paul Lehner and a four-hit pitching effort by south paw Lou ttrissie enabled the Phila delphia Athletics to vanquisth the Yankees, 5-2.

(JP) Port land won the state American Leg ion Junior baseball title nere yes terday, downing Medford, 6-5, in the finale after Medford had trip ped the Portlanders in an after noon game, 6-4. Portland went into the final day of the annual state tournament here, needing only a single win to gain the crown. It looked in the bag for Port land in the afternoon game until the seventh inning, when Medford put together three hits and two Portland errors for a four-run rally that netted victory. Both teams were nervous in the night game, Medford committing five errors and Portland eight. Portland finally nosed ahead in the eighth inning when with the score tied at 5-5 Dennis Connor, Medford relief pitcher, grew wild, walking four men and forcing in the winning run. Portland, representing the Con tact Lumber Co., qualifies for the regional Legion Junior baseball tournament at Yakima later this month. In their second event, the 220 ; the boy a bit.

Sally Becker, unattached, and Lovilla Taylor brought the spec tators to their feet in the 440-yard freestyle event as both left the field behind and made it a per sonal battle. They were neck and neck until the 6th lap when Miss Becker put on a strong sprint and was a length ahead at the wire. The Roseburg entrnnts fought hard for positions but placed no higher than third in any event. Dick Kruysman grabbed a fourth in the 100-yard breaststroke and Jerry Fingerlos finished with a fifth in the 50-yard backstroke. Bob Ramskill made a good showing for the locals by copping a third in the 100-yard backstroke. Ia fifth place was Donald Mc- Ananey. There was a bit of drama in 1 the women's 220 yard breaststfokc as Norene Kruysman of Roseburg got into trouble and began to sink. Without a moment's hesitation little Jerry Fingerlos, also of Rose burg, dove In and kept her head above water. Then with the help 01 Walt Brittel, chairman of tho meet, who dove in clolhcs and nil, pulled the struggling girl from the water. Another youngster from Rose burg, 11-year-old Bill Ocrding, moved into some fast company and did some fine exhibition div ing with Al Patnik and Bill Bur gess.
