teams are Idle today. When play
resumes tomorrow, it'll be Port

Seattle tied at the top of the heap,
defending champion Hollywood Is
tied at the bottom with San Fran

John Keller at shortstop, Pete
Williams at third, and Ron Phil

On the pitching mound it is not

likely want to save his top hurlers
for the Washington State aeries
this weekend but some of them
might work briefly today. Farrell
Albright may get the opening call
in one of the Linfield encounters
while the second game, choice will
likely be either Trent Hal*, Bill

'Slammin Sam' Tips
Hogan in Masters
Sammy Snead won the Masters
Golf tournament for the third time
Monday when he beat little Ben
Hogan in a special 18-hole play-off
at Augusta, Ga.
Snead won out by a single stroke
and in so doing, he beat Hogan at
his own game, putting.
Bantam Ben shot his way to a
one-under-par 71 on the final
round but this wasn't quite good
enough to give him the title
against the determined Snead.

When you come right down to it, you
smoke for one simple reason . . . enjoy
ment. And smoking enjoyment is all a
matter of taste. Yes, taste is what counts
in a cigarette. And Luckies taste better.
Two facts explain why Luckies taste
better. First, L.S./M.F.T.—Lucky Strike
means fine tobacco . .. light, mild, good
tasting tobacco. Second, Luckies are ac
tually made better to taste better . . .
always round, firm, fully packed to draw
freely and smoke evenly.
So, for the enjoyment you get from
better taste, and only from better taste,
