SOLON PITCHERS
TO TRY TO HALT
JOE DEMAGGIO
As the W33 Coast league pennant
battle swings Into Its 16th week to
day, Sacramento takes the field
against Joe Do Magglo, of San Fran
cisco. In the week's feature series.
Joe will have the regular San Fran.
Cisco lineup to back him up, but Just
the same It will be a De Magglo
Sacramento series. The stumbling
Seals aren't rated much opposition
for the fast-moving Senators, but
their kid outfielder has it In him to
make It quite a scries.
For one thing, he has hit safely
In 63 consecutive games, four more
than any other Const leaguers In the
history of the circuit. For another,
ho 1 still banging away and driving
towards the all-time professional
baseball mark set by Joe Wllholt of
Wichita In 1010. Wllholt's mark Is
variously listed at between 61 and 60
games.
Hacraniento New to Joe
Finally, the redoubtablo Sacra
mento pitching staff is the only
one Joe hasn't faced since he went
on his hitting rampage May 38 at
Portland. He thinks he con lilt Sol
on tossing Just as weir as any other.
The Senators think not. They are
giving him a "Joe De Mogglo" night
tonight to mako sure.
In second place andi eager to be at
the top of the league ladder, Holly
wood meets Seattle at Los Angeles.
Heavers lluy MIshImiih
With a record of 28 defeats In their
last 36 starts, the once dangerous
Missions return to their home
grounds for a scries with Portland.
The Beavers lost five of tholr seven
games at Oakland last week and are
as eager as the Reds to regain a win
ning stride.
Some of the season's best pitching
is promised this week at Oakland
where Los Angeles engages the Oaks.

kane, July 18 (P) If anybody other
than Walter Pursey, of Seattle, or
I Ted Long worth, of Portland, wins
I tho Washington state open golf
championship at the conclusion of
j the lost 3 holes of modal play today
It will bo a big surprise to the spec
! tutors and a bigger surprise to Mr.
Pursey and Mr. Xongworth.
The two Seattle professionals yes
terday exhibited as sensational a par
shooting battle as has ever been seen
In the state, with, Pursey nosing out
Longworth by one stroke for the lead
over the field, but he had to beat par
by eight to gain the slim advantage,
Pursey captured 10 birdies before
ho ran Into any trouble and then
only slipped on two Holes to com
plete the day's performance with 00
70 136, or eight under par. Long
worth matched stroke for stroke with
the Seattle ace except for an out
of bounds ball which cost him two
under a new local rule, and he fell
one swing behind Pursey. His cards
were 66-71 137.

MUCH STRENGTH
IN BUTTER MART
PORTLAND, July 18 (P) Extreme
strength was suggested In the mar
ket for butter with continued de
crease In churning operatfons in the
Pacific northwest and with the low
operation mark of the season Indi
cated in the south.
On the open market there has been
a firm tone for cube offerings with
premiums reported, over the produce
exchange gencially offered arid main
tained. Butter fat values are very firmly
quoted.
- Market prices on eggs continued to
show extreme strength for tip-top
quality but others were Indicating a
rather wide spread again. This ap
peared due to the withdrawals from
storage.
uoiter traae conditions were snow
ing for spring chickens in the llvei
tlon or so In spots.
Fairly active trade was suggested
for apricots with. The Dalles stock
moving mostly 76c per 16 lb. box,
Some lighter packs are moving, 6 to
10 centa less. California and Yakima
stock also moving well.
