Rain Interferes 1 The Pirates got away on top and j had a 7-1 lead after six innings. It! : barely lasted. Rain held up the game three times for 44 minutes in the first inning. 52 minutes in the third and 25 minutes in the ninth. Cincy had the tying runs on base with two out and 3-2 on Johnny Wryostek when lime waa called in the last inning. When they re sumed, Wryosiek fouled out to end the game. Eddie Sawyer's efforts to shake the Phillies out of their daydreams by banishing Mike Gnliat to Balti more apparently worked in a 3 2 win over Boston in 10 innings. Casey Stengel needed two pitch era Tom Morjan and Joe Os trowskf to shut out Washington, 3-0, as the Yankees reduced idle Chicago's American league lead to one half game.

And if Judnich and the Seattle whammy live up to expectations, Hornsby's Hornets are going to be mighty tough to awat.

The rugged six-week class is not ex pected to Interfere with Mathias' plans to report for football this fall. The six-foot three, 205 pound athlete from Tulare, Calif., said he will concentrate on his a c a riemie work instead of defending his three-time national decathlon title this tummer. ji .sPTH'-aj ftot.burff, OrfOM PACKARD .... O home t Seattle tally to tie it up again. Judnich singled Rivera across to win it. Oakland, meanwhile, slipped back into fourth place, receiving a 13-8 drubbing from the Portland Beavers. The Oaka may find Se attle even tougher, because t. Rainiers haven't loat a Sunday home game all season. That affair at Portland was wilder than a night in the Congo 19 hits for the Beavers and 17 for Oakland. And the Oaks sent in a new pitcher in each of the first five innings. At Hollywood, Sam Jones of San Diego ran hit season's strikeout total of 148 as he blasted his fast one past 11 Hollywood batsmen and beat the Stara, 6 1, with a four hitter. Jones, the circuit's strike out maestro, had failed to finish in three previous starta. Sacramento inched back into third place by dusting off San Fran cisco, 6-5. in ten innings, when Lou Burdette, pitching in relief for the Seals, issued a walk with the bases full to force in the win ning run. Los Angeles playa a double header at Portland tonight. Bob Spicer (10-7) and Herm Besse (6-3) are slated to go for the Angels against Red Adams (7-7) and Jack Creel (4-6). Jones, Abbott Clash In Bout One of the roughest tod blood iest brawls of the local wrestling season is anticipated when Rufus Jones and Ace Abbott clasli in one half of Saturday'a double-barreled headline mat show at the Roseburg armory arena. Abbott, the Abilene, Tex., villain, will count on his standing neck breaker and an assortment of rough-and-tumble tactics in his malch against the big head-butting Negro. Abbott was impressive in beating Sugy Hayamaki, the Jap jiu-iitsu expert, here last week. Jones hasn't been here since he lost to Maurice "The Hane man'' l.aChappelle, and hnpea to eventually gain a match with Frankie Stojack. Winner of Satur day's match is jn line for a bout against Con Bruno and the next winner will gain a title tilt against Stojack. The other half of the twin mii (event will be in marked contrast ; to the inevitable Abbott-Jones brawl, but there will be more local i interest in the one-hour, three-all i skirmish between Ace Abbott and i the coast's new light-heavyweight titleholder, Gentleman Dale H a d ' dock. Both are fine fundamental wrest , lers and. although Abbott Is a ; strong title contender, the Wayne. ' Mich., grappler refused to put his title on the block against Carlson and his "bulldogging special.' Fans did not realize that Haddock had won the coveted crown some three months ago by beating Ed die Williams in a title tilt at Boise, Ida , and he has nsade infrequent title defenses. Carlson charges Haddock with hand-picking his foes, which may result in bad blood when the two vie. Regardless of the possible en mity between the pair, the bout Is certain to be parked with colorful and dynamic action. The Abbott-Jones match will be the opener, getting under way at 8-45 p.m. Elton Owen will be on 1 hand to referee both bouts. o PHONI J-SS44Q West Side Jeats All-Stars Team An eighth inning Vets All-Star error aet up a game-winning run to break up the second extra-inning tilt of the year and hand West Side a 9-8 YMCA Twilight league tri umph at Veterans field Thursday night. The All Stars tied the game up with a 'our-run rally in the seventh on two singles, two doubles and a triple. West Side nullified an early Iwo-run All-Star lead by fashioning three tallies in the fifth find an other five in the aixth. An Industrial division game in the other half of the league saw Smith Motors just miss its second win of the season. After a 4-all tie in the third, the Motors erew was whitewashed while Pierce Auto Freight went on to score two more runs and win, 6 4. The losers flared up with three runs in i second inning to move ahead, 4-2, but the Frieghters added tw'o more in the third. Joe Stricklin then held the Motors men to a single hit, while his team was garnering a run in the fourth and another in the sixth.
