Rainiers Win Pacific Coast Pennant Beavers Appear Destined For Playoff Pacific Coast Leaffu.

The ex-National leaguer, generally recognized as the greatest right hand hitter of all time, saw his Seattle club take the Pacific Coast league pennant last night. The Rainiers downed Oakland, 4 to 2, and removed the last vestige of hope Hollywood en tertained of gaining a tie. Hollywood downed Sacramento again, 3 to 2. on George Schmees' single with the bases jammed in the tenth. Portland took Los An geles in a slugfest, 8 to 6, and San Francisco whipped San Diego in the only day game, 3-0. Hornsby's success was due to his assembling of a well-balanced pitching staff, Jim Rivera's all around play, the- double duty of pticher-outfielder Al Lyons, and lots of speed afield and on the base paths. Hollywood had more hitting power but was slow and veterans were out of action fre quently. Two In A Row Hornsby thus made it two titles in a row. He piloted Beaumont to the Texas league championship in 1950. The team he inherited from Paul Richards at Seattle finished sixth last year. This year Beau firs division. Portland's win over Los Angeles moved the Beavers within a half game of the third place Angels. These clubs are battling for1, first division places and appear to have them just about clinched, with the right to take part in the Gover nor's Cup playoffs starting next Tuesday in Seattle and Hollywood. San Francisco's shutout, pitched by Al Lien, ended a five-game losing streak for the Sealsr and enabled them to get a tie with Sacramento for the dubious dis tinction of being in last place. The San Francisco victory was no sol ace to Manager Frank (Lefty) O'Doul, who was informed that he would be without j job after the season closes Sunday. Owner Paul Fagan is pulling stakes and will sell the club. Hidden Pup Survives Ride Under Auto Hood SEATTLE UP) When a serv ice station operator lifted the hood of Mrs. Minette Proctor's car for an oil check, he found a quivering, frightened pup atop the heater ducts. Mars Brown, the attendant, said some one must have put the span iel pup there "and I'm sure it had been under there at least a day. He was half scared to death. "I know he must have taken some awful electrical jctts from the sparkplugs to be forced to get up on top of those hot ducts. It was -about the dirtiest, meanest stunt I've ever seen. I'm sure it was deliberate. Major League Leaders By The Associated Prasa AMERICAN LEAGUE Batting (based on 300 tlmea at bat) rain, Philadelphia. .341: Kell, Detroit. .329.

And "they" the anxious doctors and nurses did when Mrs. Ange lina Schaefer had a fine, healthy seven-pound girl at Brooklyn's Cal edonia hospital. Less than four months ago, Mrs. Schaefer and her husband -Charles jumped from a third-story window to escape the flames which de stroyed their home. Doctors shook their heads over her broken hip, fractured pelvis and shattered heel, and said the baby, by all the rules, would not be born alive. Mrs. Schaefer was taken from a body cast for the Caesarean de livery.

J. (XU It will be back to the salt mines for Sugar Ray Robinson today as the ex-champion resumes heavy toil in preparation for his middleweight title bout with Randy Turpin at the f oio urounds next Wednesday night. A full schedule of sparring. meaning at least five rounds, is on bugar Ray schedule for the day following a comparative rest yes terday when he boxed only two rather pattycake rounds with Terry Moore for the benefit of visiting reporters. His performance was greeted with mixed reactions by the crew of experts assembled In the bleach ers , surrounding the outdoor ring, Regardless of the sideline ODin ions, Robinson appeared snappy and in high spirits. He was throwing many combi nations, and putting some steam in his punches. He was getting set to punch, digging in with his feet instead of flitting around on his toes. The challenger expects to reach peak condition this weekend, and to hold it with a light workout Monday. He will not box tomor row, but will spar Saturday and Sunday, with the proceeds of the Saturday workout going to the fam ily of George Flores, the boxer who died of injuries suffered in a Madison Square Garden bout last week. Truman Dodges Query WASHINGTON UP) At his news conference Thursday, Presi dent Truman refused to be drawn out on his 1952 polical intentions, He was asked about a magazine article by Jonathan Daniels, ed itor of the Raleigh (N. C.) News and Observer, laying he will run again and will poll at least 419 of the nation's 531 electorial votes. A majority it required for election. The President smiled and re plied that any American citizen is entitled to his opinion, but that he has not expressed his own. He said Daniels had not consulted him and tha guess is as good as anybody's. Av FA ANOThER FELLER Bob Feller-gives his four-year-old son, Marty, the main idea, which is to get plenty of wood on the ball. Feller's fertlier, Bill, started the Cleveland jjreballer pitching when he was nine. (NEA) Drain Warriors Look Strong Half the student . body Is out for football at Drain this year. This is a slight exaggeration, but the Warriors did turn up with almost as many prospects as any county "A" school this week. To top it off, new Coach Ernie Cor reia, an Echo import, was greeted by more lettermen than any other school in the county. These 16 letters holders pushed through to s e cond filace in the county "B" league ast year, but with the apparent power this year, they're going to be a tough aggregation to beat. In 1950 they had a fair season of six wins and three losses. Experienced Men Back The prospects this year promise to make it the best Warrior team in many a year. Boosting the hopes for a winning season are three all-Valley league seniors with three years of experience un der their belts. They are 105-pound blwood Voelker at center. 155- pound Frank Walton at guard and Alan Brown at quarterback, Brown is probably one of the best passing generals in the eounty, The line should be further bol stered bv gigantic Ray MacCor- mich, who tips in at 230 pounds, 170-pound Dick Joslyn and 165 pound Bob Brown. Supplementing Alan Brown's passing wizardry, little scatback Earl Simpson will serve up the ground speed. He was a standout at right half last year and he has run the 100 in 10 seconds. No schedule has been drawn up yet, but it should be completed by this weekend when "B" league coaches and principals meet in Roseburg to draw up a county schedule. Drain will also play sev eral teams from the Lane county Valley league. Thurt., Spt. i, 1951 Th Nwt-Rv!w, Rettburtj, Ore. 7 26 Grid Hopefuls Practice At Siitherl in High School With the first day of school at Sutherlin Tuesday, new coach Ralph Dyson counted 26 hopefuls for his 1951 high school football team. Twelve of these youthful erid- ders had at least one year of ex perience. Although few linemen were of the experienced variety, they appeared to have a little more heft thn last yea. Charles Enyart weighed in at 190 pounds and was joined by Mike Osterhout (180), Mervin Kuozer (180), Bob Galla (175) and Ronald Elliott (175) to form the tentative beef trust. Experience was the byword of the backfield aspirants. Five men listed two years experience and only three were green. Another heavyweight, Martin Norris (190), put in his bid for a backfield berth. Although, the team will miss the smart quarterbacking of Steve Danchok, it will have such staunch returnees as Bill Smith Kenny Wahl, Jim Barnes and Glen Gowey.
