league action.
Two grand slum home runs en
livened the action in little league
Dan Young parked a ba'l with the
bases loaded for the Jr. Old Timers
and Cardinal Walt Elhart also pro
duced a four run homer.
Th first inning in the Glass-Jr.
Old Timer tilt was scoreless but in
the second the Old Timers pushed
five runs across with the help of
Young's poke.
Roberts, Bob Rutherford. Todd
Cornell and Steve Malonc all
walked to force one run across

Bevos 6-1
By United Press International
Lou Skizas of Seattle batted
four runs Wednesday night to
pace the last place Seattle Rain
iers to a 6 to 1 Pacific Coast
League win over the Portland
Beavers hero. The loss put Port
land back in fourth place.
Skizas belted a two-run home
run in the top of the seventh off
Portland starting pitcher Tom
Gorman to erase a 1-0 Portland
lead and then topped off a four
run Seattle outburst in the eighth
with a two-run single.
Rainier catcher Hal Bevan
drove in the other two Seattle
runs with a two run single in the
eighth frame. Portland committed
three eighth inning errors to aid
the Seattle cause.
Seattle pitcher Mark Freeman
limited Portland to five hits as he
won his sixth game of the year
against five losses. Loser was
Tom Gorman, who dropped his
second game of the season as
against two wins.
The Beavers got their only run
of the game off Freeman in the
fourth inning when Charlie Secrest
singled, stole second and scored
on Jim Westlake's single.
The Pacific Coast League is ob
viously headed toward a magnifi
cent eight-way tie the first in
baseball history.
The first division clubs are drop
ping toward the center and the
second division clubs are on the
rise. Only seven games separate
the first-place Sacramento Solons
and the eighth-place Seattle Rain
iers. Sacramento, which has led the
league since April is playing .538
baseball and if they keep up the
present rate they will hit .500 in
a few weeks. Seattle, Phoenix,
Spokane and San Diego, the sec-
ond division clubs, all appear ca
pable of moving up to the .500
mark.
Kearns was hit by the pitcher an
other run scored.
Hand tied it all up again in the
fourth be.'orc the game was called.
After th" first two men had struck
out Shrum singled and stole sec
ond and Piper singled to score
Shrum with the run that tied the
game.
Glass scored in every inning but
the third to dump Falk's 21 8,
falk's opened the scoring with a
three run blast in the first but
the Druggers countered with
runs of their own and the game
was never in doubt.
Glass got four more runs in th
second, seven in the fourth and
four runs in the fifth. Meanwhile
Falk's was picking up three runs
in the fourth and a pair in the fifth.
The power in the Falk lin-up
boosted their batting averages in
the one-sided contest. John McClay
went 5-5 for the night including a
double. Gavin Lewis was 4 5 and
also picked up a double. Mike
Chandler went hitless in only one
of four trips and poked out a home
run for Glass. Ron Fuller was two
for five including a home run.
The Dodgers tightened their hold
on first place in the Elk's league
by downing the Cardinals 11-9.
In the Card first, Mike Wilber
walked and Bob Kretschmer was
safe on a fielders choice. Frank
Miller and Bill Hermann both
walked to force a single run across.
Kretschmer scored when Walt El
hart grounded out to the shortstop
and Miller scored on Jimmy Cash's
ground ball to third.
The Dodgers picked up a single
run in the first on a walk to Dave
Smith and Dale Fcik's single.
The Dodgers continued to peck
away at the opposition. They
scored four runs in the second to
go ahead 5-3 on two walks, a field
er choice and a pair of errors.
In the third Tom Thomas was
safe on an error and Hought walk
ed before Dalton was hit by the
pitcher to load the bases. Fcr
gerson singled for two runs and
Myers' singled score another.
The Dodgers got a pair of runs
iu the fourth and a single one n
the fifth on a walk to Fallows and
back to back singles by Myers
and Smith.
Walt Elhart slammed out his
four run blast in the Cardinal filth
after J. Kretschmer and B.
Kretschmer had walked, Miller
was' safe and Hermann was hit
by the pitcher for one run.
The Cards picked up two more
runs in the sixth, D. Clark. Randy
Dolven and Kretschmer walked to
load the bas?s. A fielder's choice
scored Clark and Dolven scored
when Hermann was hit by the
pitcher.
