iA determined crew of baseball I
SlfiycrB, the Oakland Acorns, had
rown alongside Los Angeles' Angela
toduy la a tie for second place In
the Pacific Const league, while the
Portland Beavers Increased a hold
they have annexed on first place.
The Beavers scalped Seattle's In
dians S to 1 at Portland yeatertiny
tmd last nlghft, While the Angela
were losing 12 to 0 to the MlfMlun
Reds at Brfn Francisco, the Acorns
triumphed 8 to 3 over Socramento
In a 13-lnnlng contest at Emeryville
to move Into a second place tie with I
Los Angeles. . - j
In defeating Seattle, the 'Beavers
got two runs on four lilts In the sec
ond, adding another tally In the
fourth when Johnson singled with
the bases full.
. Pitcher's lilt Wins (lame
Pete Daglla, Oakland pitcher, de
livered the hit which brought vic
tory In -the 13-lnnlng contest with
Sacramento. - His single scored Stev
enson who had previously connected
for a triple. . It proved- the winning
run. - " . : ,
Tlio Missions wont on a slugfest nt
the expense of four Los - Angeles
pitchers, gathering Id hits which they
converted Into 12 runs. The Angels
rallied In the ninth to score four
runs, but the comeback did not last
long enough. -"''
Scoring two of their runs 'on
homers, Ban Prancisco'a Seals beat
the Hollywood atars 6 to 4 last night

banged out by Oana and Oaveney of

accounted for one of his team's tal
lies with a four-baser.
Added Attraction ,
An added attraction In this game
was an altercation between Julian
Wera, Seal third Backer, - and Manager-
Oscar Vltt. At tho end of the
second Inning, Wera became pugilis
tic over the asserted "riding" given
him by Vltt and donated the man
ager a couple of punches In the ieft
eye which - slightly darkened the
member. Players soon halted the
"exhibition." , f '

"SHORT PUTT?.".', cl'
'Slight tap, with, elbows
irvmust he. smooth, .j
' By Johnny Farrell , :-,
(Former American Open Champion)
As Told to A la 1 1 Could
NO. 9 PL'TTINO
In putting It Is essential to be
well anchored In a comfortable posi
tion. After getting a smooth stroke, with
an easy follow through (for distance
putting) It Is Just a matter of prac
tice and getting the proper line. .
There ore. however, really two
types of putting, one for short dis
tances, the other for anything be
yond 10 or 12 feet.
The short putt la more of a tap
stroke, but It should be mnde never
theless with a smooth nuition, using
the wrists only and with the arms
well anchored to the sides or the
hips. ,
I m hevaa....l
I have a habit myself of anchor
ing my right elbow to the side to
gain steadiness.
Tho long putfc Is a swing. For ac
curacy I usually try to pick a spot
eight or ten fect from my ball, using
this spot as a direction guide. Any
golfer will find this is a big help
in keeping to the proper line.
Putting is at leust 60 per cent
psychology. Some days the hole
looks ns big as a barrel, from almost

any part of the green. probably be--cause
the player happens to roll In a
long one at the start or get a lew
clofio enough so that . he acquires
early confidence.
I see Rood players as well as duf-
I fers tighten up on the greens, mak
ing stabs at the ball, when all they
need to do Is take a good breath and
relax.
Too much time spent on the put
ting practice greens is as bad as none
at all.
Tournament players make a mis
take by Indulging in putting practice
before play starts. Anyone who
hasn't his putting touch by- the
time a tournament comes along won't
find it on the practice greens. -
I remember one event I entered
a number of years ago at Youngs
town, Ohio. I felt confident I had
a good chance to win.- Before it
started, however, I got. Into a syn
dicate game on the practice green
with a number of other pros. We
battled each other for fully , two
hours. When I went out to play I
found I had left all my putts back
there In practice. I finished nowhere.
Ten or fifteen minutes' practice
before any match or round of tour
nament play usually is plenty.
Tomorrow Take the Penalty
Cincinnati Reds
Change Line-Uj) ;
But Cubs Wihi
Bv Hugh S. FuIIerton Jr.
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
The Cincinnati Reds appear shy a
few Important parts of a good ball
club despite Manager Dan Howley's
efforts to build up something like a
winner.
Howlev made a few more changes
t yesterday, buying Harvey Hendrlck,
Brooklyn utility man, to piug ine
hole at first -base, and - releasing
Chuck Dressen but it appears that
ho has plenty of work ahead of him.
Two Red outfielders, Wally Roettger
and Cliff Heathcote. are pounding
the ball at a .400 clip but no other
player on the team Is even near the
.300 mark. The return of Ed Roush
hasn't worked out and Ick Cullop lias
not been hitting. Joe Stripp, a ,300
hitter last year, has the best mark
of the lnflelders, .268, while Chick
Cucclnellc, who-was expected to do
some slugging, is barely above .200.
The -Reds' pitching also has been
Ineffective. 61 Johnson did seven
good Innings against the Cubs yes
terday only to weaken and Chicago
hammered out five successive hits In
the eighth to tie the score at 4-4.
The Cubs pushed over another run
off Ray Kolp In the eleventh to win,
5-4, for Cincinnati's fifteenth de
deat In 17 games. Kolp won one of
the two -victories and Red Lucas, who
has gone the route four times, took,
the other.
The league leading St. Louis Car
dinals won their seventh game in
a row yesterday, combining good
pitching and powerful . hitting to
beat Pittsburgh 11 to 5. Jess Haines
gave the Pirates only seven hits while
the Cards got that many In the
fourth inning, putting over five runs
and then coming back after a show
er to add four more In the fifth.
The St. Louis Browns, by far less
successful than their townsmen so
far, did about as well yesterday. They
got started In the fifth Inning and
pounded four Cleveland pitchers for
a total f 17 hits. and a. 10 to 4
victory. ' George Blaeholder yielded
13 blows but he kept them well scat
tered to turn In his first victory of
the season.
Vic Sorrell of Detroit also recorded
his first, win of the year, holding the
Chicago White Sox to nine hits as
the Tigers won, 6 to 1. -Detroit col
lected four hits and as many runs off
Al Thomas before he retired the sec
ond man in the opening inning.
The eastern clubs of the American
league had an open date as they be
gan their first western trip of tbe
year and - New York and Boston In
the National also, were not scheduled.
Brooklyn's game at Philadelphia was
rained out.
