BevoSuds Game Didn't Set Record
Good bet that Bossman Emil

after scanning the attendance figures for last week's Suds-Bevos
series. Opening night, 'a Tuesday, 13,311 turned out for the double
header. Three days later and despite more threats of rain, another
12,000 came out to see another doubleheader. Then to top it off, the
Seattle baseball Berts and Bessie turned out 14,188 strong Sunday
for the third and final twin bill, breaking the all-time record in Se
attle for a Portland-Seattle get-together.
. The previous high for attendance m Seattle when the Beavers
were in town was 13,493, set in 1933 when Freddie Hutchinson was
the .man of the hour. But even that or the 14,188 of Sunday doesn't
