' 1 " port Sparks By RON GOIMELL Mark down the name of Dick Ashcom on your list of football Individuals who will bear watch ing during this fall's grid cam paign . . . A 208-pound soph, at : Oregon. Ashcom Is Tex outer's number one candidate for the Tight tackle slot, -where he is ex pected to : balance Left Tackle Jim Stuart, aU-Coast.of last sea son and: expected to draw all American attention this. Ntf callow youngster isAsh com, who hails from Seaside, i-. . Be spent four-year hitch 'with the US naval medical . corps before matriculating at I the Buck dive last year, and .' played a lot of football during those four seasons ... Fast, strong on defense and quick to learn (as testifies his honor student rating in the tough medics course), he was an out standing freshman lineman last fall. - It's an all-sophomore situation at the right tackle post for the Oregons, for Ashcom 's immediate relief (will probably be Roger Johnson. 203-pound transfer from Ban Bernardino Junior college, whose aggressiveness caught coaches' eyes in spring drill . . . Both 4939 regulars. Merle Peters and Roy Jensen, were graduated. He Made 'Em Run, When the Little Skipper brought his Solons back home last Friday night, he faced the problem of what to do with a club that had just dropped three straight and was back on its heels. . He decided he'd try to get the boys up on their toes by mak ing 'em run, whether the running cost potential scoring possibilities or not, and his decision paid divi dends of four wins in five games wlthj Tacoma and three of four with Wenatchee up to last night. The very first play of the very first game after the Solons returned here saw the hit-and-run go on, and the boys have been legging it ever since ... Eddie Wilson alone pilfered nine bases in nine games, and the club total for those same contests is 19 . . . Not only that,, but the boys have been stretch Ing singles into doubles and doubles Into triples with amax litg ease. If they can maintain the pace In pissing 14 games in the next eight cays, which is the , Job cut out for; them, they can stay out In front of those pesky Capilanos, who are vying with the Solons for a coveted spot In the Shaugh nessy playoffs . . . But, mates, It's going to take some doing. Play One More Game, Our Senators begin a three game series in Wenatchee tonight, move to Vancouver for a five game series which, begins with s doubleheader Monday night, and return here to finish the reg ular season in a six-game series (three doubleheaders) with Yak ima beginning Friday night of mext week . . . That's 14 games. - Vancouver has one game to night and two tomorrow at' Yakima, moves home to play host to our Solons In the five game' aeries beginning there Monday, moves to Tacoma for a three games over Friday and Saturday of next week . . . That's 18 games. So It Is that the Legislators, who were a full game in front ef the Caps up to last nighti play one more game than do the Cana dians lnu the next eight days, de spite the fact they have already played two more for the season. . . . To make the playoffs, which begin September 10, our Solons re going to have to win one more game than the Caps as well as flay one more. Here's ; how the Sh&ognesey layoffs are to be played: Num ber one team, the pennant win- plays number three team . number two team plays Slumber four team fat two-out-ef -three series . . . First two games ef both series are to be played In the top 'club's or chard . . Winners of these cries play av . three-of-flve ee- ; ries. the first two games to be played at the bottom club's park and the balance (two or three, ee needed) at the top cab's park.

Shade Snead Defeats Sarazen, PGA Gene's Game Comes Apart After, Leading, 3-up at 27 Holes ' By GAYLE TALBOT HERSHEY, Pa., Aug. lO-VP-Most of the color and competition went out -of the PGA champion ship -today when Gene Sarazen was beaten by Sam Snead on the 36 th green In a beartbreaker. but four powerful young golfers sur vived to battle in the semi-finals tomorrow. Besides Snead. those .remain Ing In the match play clastic were Ralph - Guldahl, nationals open champion in 1937 and .1938; By ron Nelson, open king in 1939, and Harold "Jug" McSpaden, who re cently lost his' Canadian open title to Snead in a play-off. Four solid fairway citizens, but short one king as a group. Guldahl Trims Hogaa I Guldahl. who is reputed to be only so-so as a match player, didn't display any glaring weak ness as he trimmed Ben Hogan, year's biggest money winner, 3 and 2. Nelson, who meets Guldahl to morrow, scored an easy f and 5 victory over Eddie Kirk of Farm ington, Mich., the only dark horse to reach the quarter finals. McSpaden, who had a terrible time beating Walt Hagen In his previous match, gave little Paul Runyan the day's worst shellack ing, 8 and C. All the day's drama was con centrated in the tight duel be tween Snead and Sarazen, which saw the popular little squire come apart like a dollar pair of pants in a final tragic nine-hole stretch. A big part of the gallery scraped the mud from its shoes and went on home after he bowed out. Leads 87 Holes Sarazen, trying to win once more a trophy he first captured in 1922. shot a great 68 in the morning to take a two-up lead over the tall mountaineer who is one of the world's longest drivers. He shot a steady par 36 on the first nine in the afternoon to stand three up at the 27th hole and it looked like it was in the bag. three up with nine to go and he was hitting his woods and irons straight and true. There was no hint of the im pending disaster when Snead holed a good putt for -a birdie on the 29th to cut hla deficit to two holes. They halved the next, and the veteran still was two to the good with six to play. Then Sarazen's game, which had been magnificent all week, finally went to pot. On the 3 let hole he drove into the rough, put his second behind a wide-spreading bush and wound up with' a six, one up. Came the 3 3rd and he snraved his drive Into the tall and uncut -again, flailed his recovery beyond ue green, ana the match was square. Sarazen looked sick. On the next hole, the 34 th, Snead studied a 12-footer for a long time and knocked it in for a brdle to take the lead for the first time in the match. They shot pars on the final two holes and Sarazen's great bid was ended.. Creosote Thrown At Bus, Eugene PORTLAND.

Gent Attempts to Find Race for the Reds ' By WHITNEY . MARTIN NEW TOBK, All. tO-(fl-Ifs pretty hard to work up a con vincing case In behalf of any club except1 the Cincinnati Reds In the National league pennant race. The other teams have been caught in a strange henhouse at mid night, so far as anything might be said In their behalf.- This state ' of affairs grieves Bin Brandt sorely. ; Not 'that he doesn't want the Reds ; to win. He doesn't care, out loud, any way, who wins. Billt Brandt I Is the National league publicity di rector, and 'he must be strictly neutral. at least until the world series, at which time,- lately any way, he most be Just about ersxy. What grieves Bill Is that the traditional National league Sep tember race promises to be about as tight as a bin of oats. And to make matters worse, that other learae. as Bill refers to it. is TT "TV . Pitcher Defi Up With Griffiths - Gang By RON GEMMELL . Lack of pitching cost our Senators an opportunity to gain a full game on Vancouver in the hot race for fourth, spot and the Shaughnessy playoffs the position carries with it, as last night the Wenatchee Chiefs scalloped out a 4 to S de cision behind the four-hit hurling of husky Milo Candini. - The Little Skipper was forced to call upon Rookie Ray Double Play Man 'SV.'..:.- , . . v .. fir's- I lit Ml .i.i urtJfi n.nii.,Mi inil.'ji LEE SHINN Caps Oblige by Losing, 8 to 2 Stay Game Behind Solons; Windsor Victor in 11-6 Win by Spokane W.

Manager Crandall of Vancou ver protested the g a m e in the third when the Pippins counted twice. Walt Bliss was on third and Ed Weigandt on second, and both adanced on a, double steal. Weigandt then scored on Pitcher Louis Goldman's wild throw to the plate to catch Bliss. Crandall contended Weigandt should have been held at third. Yakima built up a four run lead in the first when Bill Reese singled. Bliss and Weigandt don- bled, and Bill Johnson and Ooldle Holt singled. Vancouver was un able to get to Schans and made only five hits, two of them ef the scratch variety. Vancouver -.8 I 1 Yakima 8 11 4 Holmes, Goldman (1), Smith (7) and Lloyd; Schans and Ev ans. Indians Pound Tigers SPOKANE, Aug. 80-0P)-Out-flelder Tony Flrpo tried valiant ly tonight to hold np the fading Tacoma Tigers, but his two dou bles and two singles In four of ficial times at bat could not match the enemy power and the Spo kane Indians marked np an 11 to 8 baseball victory. It was the third triumph In four Western International league starts against Tacoma for the Spokane team, and a crowd of CO 00 saw the league leaders post the win. The Indians pounded Koupal hard In the first three frames to tally enough runs to win, but the Tacoman settled down to pitch tight ball for the rest of the route. Windsor, on the hill for Spo kane, struck ont seven and chopped off . a Tacoma rally . In the fourth by whiff lag Baer with the bases filled. Both teams were shaky afield and broke even on errors, each hobbling five times. Tacoma , 11 I Spokane 11 14 I Koupal and Brenner; Windsor and McNamee. Bowling Meet Is Open SPOKANE, Aug.

E. Schnebly announced tonight. keeping the , fans guessing. But; Bill Isn't -a guy to give up as long as he has mathematics on his side or can make old rec ords play a soothing tune. - - Remember back In 183 S when the Cubs, after hanging . around the .800 mark a good part ef the season, . won . 21 straight games and' the pennant?" he asks.' -And.

You "can't tell; what might i happen." - Bill paused In this graveyard whistling. 4 Jeav lnn the Impression that fire. flood and tornado not only were liable to descend upon the Reds, but virtually certain to ; visit them.'. ; -- . ;. - As a matter -of fact, and rec ord, the Reds haven't been the best team In the last couple . of Senators Clt Elliott for nui duty, ana tne nome town product wasn't equal to stop ping the big guns of the Wenat chee. attack. Piano-legged Lee 'Shinn. start ing three double, plays for his hot corner spot, saved Elliott - upon three occasions, and It wasn't un til the seventh that the Chiefs found the safety range ' for five blows and three runs to sew - np the contest.' They . cut down the Senators' series margin to 8-8. Freddie Knoll batted across all three Salem runs, his Infield cut scoring Elliott, whose short fir to left hopped over Rightfielder Morehouse's head for three bases In the third, and his double to center counted Salstrom and El liott In the fifth. The Chiefs knotted the count at 1-1 In the sixth when Escobar singled, took second on Bonettl's one base blow, third on Jewell's free trip and scored on More house's fly. - Elliott, Issuing a base on balls to Ratto and giving up a blngls to Cole, 'got himself In trouble to open the seventh, butLee Shinn came np with his third double play start of the night to cut down both and leave the hitter on first. Escobar tripled, Bonettl doub led and Volpi singled, however, to drive home three runs before El liott war denicked in favor of Kralovitch. Even so, wlldness almost cost Candlni the ball game twice after the Chiefs went into the lead. A walk to Kralovitch, Knoll's sacri fice and an Intentional pass to Bucky Harris set the stage In the seventh, and only, some nice hit ter judgement by Hank Bonettl kept Charley Petersen's line smash from going for two bases. Again in the eighth, successive walks to Shinn and Pinch Hitter Al Llghtnsr put the tying and winning runs on. but Candlni whiffed Pinch Hitter Roy Helser on three straight pitches. Our Senators moved out for Wenatchee immediately following the game. They play three with the Chiefs over the weekend, move to Vancouver for five through Monday Tuesday and Wednesday, and return here for the season's finale in a six-game series with Yakima Friday.
