Saturdav.'April 21, 1931 SEATTLE COMES OUT OF CELLAR- PORTLAND IS IN ' By the Aworlated Ptbm The Seattle Indians were out ot the cellar In the Paclflq Coeet league to day after winning their lecond straight game under their new man ager, Walter (Dutch) Reuther. Fast games were the rule yesterday with every contest completed In less than two hours. Herman Plllette, pitching his sec ontl shutout this season, held the Hollywood Stars to 6 scattered hits, all tingles, as Seattle won. 5 to 0. hoa Angeles reached two Oakland pitchers lor 14 hits to win. 6 lol Led by Clarence Mitchell, veteran spltballer. the San Francisco Missions defeated Portland, 8 to 4. to remain In second place, three games behind Los Angeles. Mitchell set Portland down with 7 hits while his team mates found three Portland hurlera for 10 hits. Including a home run by Outfielder Tom Hafcy. The San Franclco Seals rose to third through their 8 to a victory over the Sacramento Senators last night. "JACK - J,"i MY LOUISIANA STATE UIMM Imbler Defeats L. H. S. Nine ll to 3 Friday (Continued Prom Page One) then scored on Beck'j single. But that was all, except for another Iinb. ler run on en c.-ror and a single. On the othr side erf the ledger. La Grande contr.butod the two most sparkling plays ot the day. one a dou bis play In the fourth Beck to stltt to Robertson and the other a run ning catch of a difficult fly by Ar. noldua, which robbed McKlnnis of whst looked like a sure two-bare hit. Wflld:n, catching, ant: reonard, in the field, contributed thn best de tensive L'all of the da for U. Grande, with 8tltt also turning in a nice game. Stltt lost one fly for an error, but the sun was mostly accountable for his muff. In the last two Innings Imbler went down one, two .three. with only one strikeout In the row of six putouts. Crouser and Frlswold, of Imbler, were the hitting stars of the game. the first sacker getting two singles In two legal times at bat. and a walk In a third appearance, and Prlawold batting out two singles and a triple in tnree times up. Young and Koyle. who did the mound duty for the Tigers, were about equal In strength, with the ex ceptlon that Kayle had support and Young didn't. Young whiffed five. Koyle one and Keith McKlnnis, or Imbler, retired 11 Tigers via the strikeout route. McKlnnis, although a bit wild at times, turned in his usually good game. Next Friday Elgin Is scheduled to play here, if the local field Is In good condition. The score: 0 J H 'Tyv 'r-Md- (y nons the woRut J VAVA RECORD HR THE K V...-IP IfaLB.

He urged particularly In a call published in the newfipaper La Pravda the training of women and children "and others not fit for milt tary service" to carry on should their men be called to fight. 1 Some think. President Kalinin said, "that since war haa not yet been proclaimed against the soviet union It will not be done at all. those so thinking have lost their vigilance. Ho condemned rural Soviets for their Inactivity In training women, children and men not physically cap able of going to war "to carry out the work of the collective farms when all able-bodied persons are mobilized," Lending impetus to the drive to emphasise th need for prepared ness, hundreds of slogans are being prepared for use in May day cele brations. "Imperialists are preparing new wars against the U. S. S. II.", one reads, and there are others such as: "Japanese lmjx;riallsiji are organizing anti-soviet provocations In the Far East": "workers, peasants, red sol diers, strengthen tho defenses of our country-. Long live the Far-Eastern red army." A sharpening of Japanese-American relations as a result of the recent Japanese statement warning the rest of the world to keep lta hands off China whs predicted today by the soviet press which views the Tokyo proclamation aa giving a serious impetus to the danger of war in tho Ear Eafct.
