    Cleveland Extends . Ulead
By Whipping Tigers, 2-1
By JOB REICHLER
Associated Frese SporU Writer
Cleveland') onrushing Indians
continue to whiz by all opposition
as the "Lopez limited" speeds
steadily toward its destination
pennantville.
No wonder the Indians, led by
Manager Al Lopez, are talking
pennant today. They never were
so well off.
The Tribe won again last night,
defeating Detroit, 2-1. Here is
what the victory meant to the
Indians .
It increased their first place
margin over tho runnerup New
York Yankees in the American
League to two and a half games
as Philadelphia shellacked t h e
Bronxites for the third straight
time, 16-8.
It stretched the Tribe's winning
streak to 11 straight, only two
short of the club's all-time record
of 13 accomplished in 1942.
It marked tho 19th triumph for
Bob Feller, who celebrated a
"night" in his honor by limiting
the Tigers to seven hits.
It was the eighth consecutive
complete job by a Cleveland
hurler and It was the 12th straight
game the Indians held their oppo
sition to four or less runs. It
also was Cleveland's 14th win in
15 meetings with Detroit..
On Their Way
"We're on our way," said Lo
pez. "I don't see how anyone
can stop us now.

"If we can build up a lead of
five games during our coming
home stay against the East, we re
in. We're getting great pitching
and timely hitting. Ray Boone
and Bobby Avlla have been splen
did at short and third and Al
Rosen has been helping us with
those home runs."
It was a homer by Rosea his
20th that proved the difference
last night. It came in the fourth
inning and snapped a scoreless
duel between Feller and Marlin
Stuart A Detroit error, Feller's
bloop single, a sacrifice and
Avila's fly gave Cleveland an un
earned run In the fifth. Singles
by Jerry Priddy and Dick Kry-
hoski and George Kell's forceout
produced the liger run in the
eighth.
"We're in the best shape of the
season," said Lopez. "This is a
bounce-back ball club. We proved
it when after dropping those first
two in New York, we came back
to win the next one and followed
with two out of three victories
in Boston.
"That was the turning point
for us."
Philadelphia raked four New
York chuckers for 18 hits its
season high and scored in all
but the first and eighth innings.
Catcher Joe Tipton got four hits
and drove in three runs. Elmer
Valo also made four hits and
drove In two. Morrie Martin
won his seventh game. Vic
Raschi started for the Yankees
but Joe Ostrowskl was charged
with the loss.
Yanks Hit Hard
In the last three games, the
Athletics have bombarded 11 Yan
kee pitchers for 32 runs and 46
hits. Whew.
A three-run homer by Gil
Hodges in the eighth Inning gave
the Brooklyn Dodgers a 7-6 vic
tory over Boston's Braves and left
their 12V4 first place margin in
tact. The runner-up New York
Giants won their thrid straight
from Philadelphia's Phils, 5-2.
Cincinnati swept a doubleheader
from Pittsburgh, 2-0 and 7-1 while

WILLIAMS'
It's the Toast
of Dixit
Q
Chicago's Cubs upset the
Louis Cardinals, 6-3.
Hodges' homer was his 33rd of
the season and the 100th of his
big league career. Carl Ersklne
was credited with his 13th vic
tory but needed relief from Clyde
King in the ninth.
Whltey Lockman cracked a
three-run homer in the first Inn
ing off Bubba Church and that
was all Larry Jansen needed to
record his 15th triumph for the
Giants.
The Cubs blasted Dick Bolel
man for five runs In the second
Inning to ruin the Rookie's first
big league start. Ransom Jackson
collected three hits and scored
twice. Stan Musial's 200th big
leaguer homer went to waste for
the Cards.
Howie Fox blanked the Bucs
on five hits in the opener and
helped his cause with a homer.
Ewell Blackwell had a one-hitter
until the ninth of the nightcap. It
was Blackie's 12th win.

A Flavor Sensation ! I
Never have we offered a bread that proved to popular
in so short a time. Everyone loves the marvelous CORN
AND HONEY FLAVOR of this new "Golden Loaf." De
mand at food stores has been to great that many of them
have SOLD OUT of 01' South'rn Corn Bread before noon.
SO ... if you didn't find a supply the first time . . . TRY
AGAIN! You'll say It's truly a FLAVOR SENSATION.

Left For Chiefs
The local baseball season has
a little over tnree weens to run
and a glance over the Umpqua
Chief game docket shows the
Roseburg squad is set to close
out the campaign in a blaze of
activity. ...
Only two games remain to be
played by the Chiefs in the South
western Oregon league. They
journey to Myrtle Creek this Sun
day and return for the final con
ference encounter against Reeds
port the following Sunday, Aug.
20. Since these are the two door
mat teams of the league, a vein
of optimism is noticeable even
though Roseburg squeaked past
Myrtle Creek by one run and
lost to Reedsport earlier in the
season.
These are the crucial games,
but two tougher tests loom on the
horizon. Preceding the Reedsport
tilt Sunday, Aug. 28, the Chiefs
will host Bandon Saturday night
on the local diamond in a non-

the Douglas county baseball hot
box, arranged the meeting of the
Chiefs and the Far West league
team. It will be played on the
Drain field as a benefit contest
The regular season may be ex
tended If the Chiefs win both
the remaining league games. This
will give the locals a berth in the
Shaughncssy playoffs which are
scheduled for early September.

Southern .Oregon's greatest an
nual aquatic festival promises to
be bigger and better than ever
before.
From a spectator standpoint,
the Southern Oregon Invitational
swimming meet and water car
nival will have everything.
Slated for Saturday and Sunday
nights at 7:30, the meet and car
nival will sport some of the big
gest names in the Northwest's
swimming annals on the same
bill with champion log rollers
and local swimming groups.
Topping the list of swimming
dignitaries is Al Patnik, return
ing to the Junior chamber of
commerce-sponsored event for the
third consecutive year. Patnik is
rated as the greatest diver ever
produced. Since retiring from ac
tive competition In 1940, he has
appeared in exhibitions all over
the world.
While at Ohio State, the grace
ful technician was undefeated in
both high ahd low board diving.
He retired undefeated after five
years of national collegiate, AAU
and international competition. He
still maintains his amateur status
and all exhibition costs are travel
ing expenses to and from the
events.
Program If Stocked.
His exhibition alone Is worth
the $1.50 admission price, but the
Jaycees have stocked the program
with plenty of additional talent.
An example is Jack Henderson
and Al Edwards, called the Tram
poline Stylists. Henderson is an
other repeat performer from last
year. He was limited to clown
diving then, but this year he
has added a partner and a tram
poline. Another highlight beside the
racing competition is a log-rolling
contest to determine the Douglas
county champion. The winner will
be awarded a trophy and an ex
pense paid trip to the Albany
Timber carnival competition in
1352. Entries may be made with
Dick Gllman this week or at the
time of the event. A standard
birling log will be used for the
contest.
Even the local angle has not
been overlooked by the perspi
cacious Jaycees. The municipal
band will play, local girls will
stage a water ballet comparable
to the one at the All-city meet,
baton twirers and dancer3 from
the Sally Hilt studio will open
the two-hour programs and a
service club relay will be run off.
Tickets went on sale at Roy
Bellows and Lawsons Monday. It
will be reserved, but some will
be sold at the gates on both
Saturday and Sunday nights be
fore the program.

Pro Football Teams
Meet In Charity Battle
LOS ANGELES UP) The
Los Angeles Rams were installed
as seven point favorites today for
their charity clash tomorrow night
with the Washington Redskins.
The traditional pre-season bat
tle will lift the lid on the potentiali
ties of both National football
league clubs.
The Rams, defending western di
vision champions, won last year's
struggle 17 to 14. The game lured
95,625 patrons into Memorial coliseum.
Church Division All-Stars
Romp Over Industrialists
The ' Church division all-stars,
behind the one-hit pitching of
Ralph Sanstede, romped over the
Industrial division all-stars, 5-1,
Monday night n Veterans field.
On the strength of a four-run
burst in the opening frame, the
Churchmen snared the lead and
were never pressed. Sanstfde
handcuffed the Industrialists from
the first. The only hit off him
was a single by Jim White. This
timely single accounted for the
only run by the Industrials. Bob
Kidder came home after reaching
second on an error.
The big first-inning rally by the
Churchman was inaugurated when
the first man at bat, Garey Piper
walked. Curley Craig advanced
him to second with a single. Piper
beat it home when Sanstede
reached first on a fielder's choice
that nipped Craig at second. Jack
Loomis got on when Ted Reece
muffed his fly to left field. Bob
Heimrich cleared Sanstede and
Loomis off the bases with a
double and scored himself when
Charles Clark collected the sec
ond consecutive double off Bob
Kidder.
Bunch Three
For good measure, the Church
crew of the YMCA Twilight
league bunched three consecutive
singles by Heimrich, Clark and
John Jones to bring across run
No. 5 in the fourth inning.
In ringing up the all-star win,
Sanstede struck out three and
walked five. His teammates com
mitted only one error. Kidder
was more successful in the strike
out department, fanning six and
walking only two, but he allowed
seven hits and all but one of
them were bunched. Meanwhile,
the Industrial nine committed
three errors, two of them in the
fatal first.
Bob Heimrich and Charles
Clark, playing far the Church
crew, led the hitstVs with two
hits in three times at bat. In
fact, they batted like twins. Both
got doubles in the first, both got
singles in the fourth and both
struck out in the sixth.
One of the most sparkling play,
ers in the field was John Jones.
Covering his right Held pasture
like an Arabian tent, the Church
division star handled six plays.
He accounted for his team's only
error, but made up for it by
snagging every other fly to his
field off his shoetops.
Another Fixer
Being Grilled
NEW YORK UP) The dis
trict attorney's office, delving into
fixed basketball games, sought ad
ditional information today from a
fifth man arrested in connection
with the widespread scandal.
Indications were given by Vin
cent A. G. O'Connor, assistant dis
trict attorney, that the affair
might spread Into the deep south
and far west.
Nathanial Brown, 33, of Brook
lyn, was held in $10,000 bail as a
material witness. O'Connor said he
had been associated with four oth
ers under arrest on charges of
bribing players to fix games.
Brown "has important inforrr
tlon which he has yet to disclose
said O'Connor, adding that his in
vestigators are nearing informa
tion involving additional unnamed
players and colleges.
O'Connor said Brown had trav
elled to the far west in connec
tion with fixes during the 1948-49
season.
