Los Angeles 8 to 7 In a wild nlnth
lnnlng rally, the Hollywood Btare, who
hsve led' the league for some time,
lost their second straight game to
Bncramento. When play started yes
terday Portland and Hollywood were
in a tie for first place.
. The Ducks came through with a
strong finish to beat the Angels after
the latter had pushed over two runB
to tie the score at 7-all In the first
half of the ninth. Jim! Keesey, new
Portland first sacker, started the ral
ly with a single, and with the bases

Last night tho Eagles baseball club
took its first practice workout slnco
a hard-earned victory over the Mis
sion Indians last Sunday. The club 1b
now preparing for Its next kame with
the Pleasant Grove grange baseball
teaml to be played on the High school
field here, starting at 2 o'clock next
Sunday afternoon.
The Pleasant Orovo team record,
compared to that of the Eagles, pro
vides material for speculation. The
grange team Is composed entirely of
youngsters under 19 years of age.
most of them having played on for
mer Imbler High school sectional
championship teams. This season the
grangers have lost but one game while
annexing tho scalps of five opposing
teamB. Their percentage of victories
rates at .833. On tho other hand the
Eagles have won but six games while
dropping eight to opposing teams. The
Eagles percentage rates at .428. The
one game that the grange lads drop
ped was to the Mission Indians by a
score of 11 to 6. The Eagles have
played the Mission team 'twice, the
first time losing by a score of 8 to 7.
and the last time winning by a score
of 7 to 6. I From, comparative scores
it appears rthat the Eagles have a
slight edge on the grange boys, but
many local fans seem to doubt tho
Importance of this Indication.

the visitors is as follows: Lewis or

: (Associated Press Sports Editor)
American tennis fans who read the
papers, and especially those fans
around New Orleans, Memphis, Cin
cinnati, Chicago and Milwaukee, are
beginning to believe that at least once
Bill Tllden spotted an Infant phenom
who will live up to all advance blurbs.
A couple of years ago Tllden was
quoted, as saying that Frankle Park
er of Milwaukee was the most prom
ising player, for his year that he, Tll
den, had ever seen. That was when
Parker, a 14-year-old lad of barely 100
pounds, had yet to win the national
boys title that came to hlmj last
summer.
Tllden has carried the torch for
other prodigies of the courts, and
has personally sponsored several,
but none save Junior Coen has real
ly rung the bell In top flight tennis
and even Coen has not developed
as sensationally as he started.
But the trail which Parker has
been blazing through spring and
early-summer tournaments has net
fandom thrilling to a new hope. At
New Orleans last winter he van
quished, George Lott, and extended.
WJlmer Allison to two deuce seta
before losing. ,
In the National clay court meet
at Memphis, the Trl-State at Cincin
nati and tho Western at Chicago
his play was the talk of all gal
urkev
V
made for rolling
lerles.. He became an objective of
autograph-seekers almost ovornlght
following his great five-set finals bat
tle with Lott at Cincinnati, and his
victory over tho same player at Chi
cago four days later.
GALLERIES IN TRANCE
. Tennis devotees - who watch the
boy in action are enthralled by his
workmanship and his unhurried,
smooth stroklngA - As one gallery He
in Chicago expressed it: "He hits
every shot, no matter where or in
what position, as though that par
ticular shot were the ono he had
specialized In for years."
He's still not a big fellow by any
means, but he's lh rare good health
and his 135-pound physique is well
knit, which could not be said for tho
scrawny, 06-pound Frank lo Parker
who six . years ago began lugging a
cast-off battle axe racquet Into kid
tourneys In Milwaukee. , ,
Tilden, though, wasn't tho real
"discoverer" of Parker. Mercer
Beasley, tennis coach of ; a Milwau
kee club and at Tulane unlvorslty,
first detected Frankle's talent, in
terested a wealthy Milwaukee ten
nis fan In the boy, and thus changed
the whole course of hiB life.
He was put in a country boarding
school (his parents wore not well
off), given a sot of body-building ex
ercises and regulated diet, and a ten
nis tourney schedule was mapped
for him. This Included four succes
sive starts In tho National boys'
meet at Culver, Ind., whero ho was
a popular flguro for three years be
fore achieving the crown last sum
mer, Frankle's assortment of strokes
la probably as complete and finely
polished as any of the lesser Inter
nationalists. This temperament, on
the court and off It, Is Ideal, and his
stamina is all that could bo asked.
If he has a weakness It is only
that of lack of experience. And he's
getting that, this summer,

Thurston Wins
His Sixth With
Brooklyn Team
Hy (In vie Tiilhot
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Max Carey, manager of tho Brook
lyn Dodgers, did his beat bit of master
minding of the season when he de
cided a month ago to glvo Hollls
Thurston a break.
Up to then, Thurston had been do
ing relief pitching now and then with
Indifferent success.
On May 28, Carey sent tho 32-year-
old righthander against the aiants,
Thurston wont the routo and won, 6
to 4. Slnco then. Thurston has gone
to tho hill fivo times, and yestcrdny
he marked up his sixth straight vic
tory. His rato success since he was
promoted to tho varsity Is one of the
big reasons why the Dodgers are In
a tie for fourth place In the National
league today, only three gamos from
the top.
Nwoiul Straight Shutout
Yesterday's 7 to 0 win over the
Phillies was Thurston's second
straight shutout and ran his record
of consecutive scoreless innings to 22.
Ho was only tho third pitcher to
blank the Phils in their homo park
this season, and he had to keep flvo
hits well spaced to turn the trick.
Hack Wilson's 15th homerun with two
on featured the Brooklyn assault.
Although they rallied to score four
runs in tho last of tho ninth, the Cin
cinnati Reds dropped another one
run decision to St. Louis, 10 to 0.
Charllo Gilbert hit Into a double play
with the tying run on baso. Only
two games wore billed In tho National.
'Lefty Gomez, seeking his 12th
straight victory, was knocked from
tho hill in the eighth, but tho high
flying Yankees defeated Washington,
6 to 6, and maintained tholr long
lead' in tho American league. Joe
V
Sowell's two home runs played a big
part In the Yankee triumph. George
Plpgros relieved Gomes and reoelved
credit for the -win.
Detroit Thumps Cleveland
Detroit tightened Its hold on sec
ond place by thumping Cleveland, 13
to 4, behind Earl White lull's tight
pitching. Joo Boley, former Athletic
hero, mado his appearance at short-.
atop for tho Indians and handled, flvo
chances.
Irving Had ley allowed only four hits
in pitching tho St. Louis Browns to a
6 to 1 win over Chicago. Lyn tttortl
