Hills Creek vs. Giustina.
The Hills Creek Billies, battling
to ascend from the Cascade
League cellar, defeated the Snell
strom Braves 5-4 before a few
hundred fans at Civic Stadium
Friday night. The defeat failed to
remove the Braves from a final
second-place berth, but dropped
them three full games behind the
champion Miller Lumbermen, who
await a state title series against
the Salem Capitols here next
week , The victory moved the
Billies into a tie with the Gius
tina Indians and the two clubs
clash in the league finale Sunday
to decide the cellar championship.
Game time will be 2:30 p. m.
Whitey Lokan went the distance
lor the Billies, who shelled Bill
Hanauska from the mound in the
seventh, although the winning run
was unearned. It was Lokan's
third win against two losses and
Hanauska's fifth loss against nine
victories.
Roelanilt Hitting .469
Frankie Roelandt, Hills Creek
catcher who will miss qualifying
for league batting honors by a
single game, continued his sensa
tional hitting with "three for four"
to boost his average to .469, far
ahead of the winning .416 average
by Barney Koch of the Lumber
men. Koch won the title Friday
. night when Del Koch of the
Braves, who had an outside chance
for a final .417, went hitless.
Dick Bartle of the Billies and
Del Schroer of the Braves also had
three hits Friday.
Lokan gave up a walk to Busher
Smith and a single to Dick Bishop
after two were away in the sec
ond and then Hanauska clouted
a two-run double. He was out at
the plate on Ray Stratton'a throw
after Del Schroer's single, retiring
the side.
Tying Run Threat in 9th
Four hits, including Charley
Mickelson's triple, gave the Billies
two runs and a deadlock in the
third. The Braves went ahead 4-2
in the fifth on a walk, a sacrifice,
two hits and an error, Three con
secutive singles and an error in
the seventh inning produced three
Billy runs and the ball game.
jrearicKs took over with one
on and no outs and the next three
men grounded out.
Lokan almost lost his own game
in the ninth after two were away.
Pete Taylor would have beaten
out a scratch infield single, but
went on to third when Lokan toss
ed wildly to first. But Koch
grounded out to retire the side and
end the game.

Casey Stengel's boys stopped off
the skids long enough to outscore
the Angels Friday night 13 to 10.
Los Angeles got away to a first-

CHICAGO, Auc. 21 (API
The Chicago Cardinals, steam
rollering to the most decisive
victory In the 15-year series,
handed Frank Leahy's College
All-Stars a stinging football
lesson, 28-0. before 101,220 at
Soldiers Field Friday night.
The All-Stars, who thought
they had so much talent they
could experiment with a T
formation and single wing at
tack against the Cardinals, were
nearly swept out of the mam
moth lake front stadium by the
National Football League cham
pions. The slick, bruising Cardinals
ripped the All-Star defenses to
shreds with explosive running
and deadly passing of Coach
Jimmy Conzelman's version of
the T.
Charley Trlppi, playing his
fifth time in the All-Star spec
tacle he played four times with
the collegians showed the All
Stars how to lug the ball.
Trlppi, who scored the final
Cardinal touchdown on a 13
yard pass from quarter bark
Ray Mallouf, carried the ball 14
times for 80 yards.
The best collegiate ball-carry-
prriurniant'e was by Notre
"aiiic s nin uompcrs, who went
36 yards In four tries.
Notre Dame's Johnny Lujark
had a hand In the only All
Star threat, LuJark, off a lat
eral from Perry Moss, fired a
44-yard pass to Dan Edwards of
Georgia in tile third period as
the Collegians march 84 yards
to the Cardinal one. Floyd Sim
mons of Notre Damp was sinoth
ered by Cardinal tackles n a
rourth down to end this drive.
The single wing attack prob
ably would have fared much
better had Michigan's Bump
Elliott, injured a week ago,
been around to supply his of
fensive and defensive talents.
But, as It was, neither A II
Slar offensive nor defensive
could get up a real head of
steam. Chuck Concrly, triple
threat star from Mississippi,
made two yards in two ball
carrying attempts.
The Cardinals had a 200 to
102 yard edge by rushing and
shaded the collegians In Passing
133 to 132. Statistics reflected
but little the sound trimming
handed out by the Cardinal.

San Francisco manager Lefty

Three Golf Events Set
For Busy Weekend Here
Sox and Stan Musial of the St.
Louis Cardinals, virtually assured
of the batting championships of
their respective leagues, Saturday
were conducting a hot battle for
the overall clubbing title of the
1948 season.
Swinging into the final weeks
of the campaign. Williams boasted
a .383 average, just two percent
age points ahead of the Cardinal
clouter.
Musial, however, had little to
worry about in the National
League hit race as he led his near
est competitor, Andy Pafko of the
Chicago Cubs, by almost 50 points.
Pafko had a .332 mark, just one
point in front of Alvin Dark,
sparkling rookie fielder of the
Boston Braves. Another rookie
Richie Ashburn of the Phillies,
was next with .324, followed by
cnos slaughter of the Cardinals.
.318.
Lou Boudreau, manager of the
Cleveland Indians, picked up 15
points during the past week to
pull within shouting distance of
Williams in the American League
laouiaiion. Boudreau had a .364
mark, including games played
inursday. Dale Mitchell, another
Clevelander, was next with .333,
followed by Elmer Valo of the
Athletics, .327.
musial also was leading the
pack in two other hitting depart
ments. He had the most runs. 101
and the most hits, 170. Williams
and teammate Dom DiMaeeio each
naa oo runs to tie for the Ameri
can League lead while Boudreau
totaled 144 hits to lead the junior
circuit in mat division.
ine nome run race remained
tight with Ralph Kiner of the
Pittsburgh Pirates on top with 31
blasts. Musial was right behind
him with 30. Joe Di Maggio of the
ransees was tops in the Ameri
can League with 26.
The Yankee Clipper alsto topped
both leagues with 105 runs-batted-in.
Musial again popped up as the
National League pacemaker with
95.
Harry "The Cat" Brecheep of
the St. Louis Cardinals had the
top hurling mark of the majors
with 15 won and four lost. Cleve
land Rookie Gene Bearden led the
American League pitchers with a
12-3 mark.
Czech's, Aussies in
Davis Cup Showdown
BROOKLINE, Mass. Aug. 21
UP) With a two matches to one
lead, the Australian Davis Cud
tennis iorces need only one of the
two remaining singles eneaee-
ments with the Czechoslovakia
at Longwood Saturday to gain the
unanenge round for the fourth
time running.
The ace swingers of those in
ternational rivals. CaDtain Adrian
Quist of Australia and Czech Star
Jaroslav Drobny, have been paired
for one clash and little Billy Sid
well, the surprise of the inter
zone finals action, will face Fladi
mir Cernik, the No. 2 Czechoslo
vakia in the windup action.
With their backs to the wall,
Drobny and Cernik kept their na
tion in the inter-zone final run
ning Friday by out-steadying Co
lin Long and Geoff Brown, Aus
tralia's doubles specialists, for a
10-8, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory. Both of
the Czechs displayed a marked
overnight improvement, Drobny
especially.
If Drobny manages to retain his
form of Friday and Quist con
tinues erratic, the inter-zone final
probably will be decided by the
siciwell-cernick finale.
