. Demoran evened the score with
little Ad Liska, who beat him at
Portland In the 'first of his "three
series appearances. He threw only
one ball which Portland could con
vert into a loud hit, Ted Gullic
smacking a knuckler over the left
field wall in the second inning for
the visitors' only tally. The one
other blow off Demoran was a
scratch single by Larry' Barton
in the ninth. : . -
Liska pitched good enough ball
to win most games, allowing never
an earned run. With two out in
the Seattle fourth George McDon

Dobbins. Ted Norbert then hit a
lazy grounder to shortstop and
Johnny CNeil 1 fumbled , it, the
evener, crossing the plate on the
play.- Singles by Charley Aleno
