Surprising Bevos
Hold to Big Lead
In Coast Circuit
(By United Frew)
The surprising Portland Beav
ers, continuing their policy ol
clouting the ball when hits mean
business and ball games, return
to the home fold to take on the
Los Angeles Angels in a seven
tilt series opening Wednesday
night. -
Manager Marv Owen s nine has
just completed one of the most
- successful road trips in Pacific
coast league history winning 11
out of 14 games on ioreign ten
toiv. The Bevos trounced Holly
wood in a 6-1 series, then ended
on a high note at San Diego by
taking the last five games in a row
for a 5-2. triumph.
The Oregon club has been get
ting standout mound performan
ces from Don Pulford, Roy Helser
and Jake Mooty. They have been
getting consistent hitting from
the likes of Larry Barton ana
Charley English, plus sparkling
infield play from manager Owen
and shortstop Johnny O'Neill.
Will Beavers Field?
' With that combination the op
position has had little success
and the old myth about Portland
"folding when the going gets
tough" appears headed for the
ash-can.
The Beavers will get a stiff
test from the Angels this week,
because manager Bill Sweeney
finally has his club rolling. They
have won their last two series In
a row and the boys on the field
are starting to show some re
spect for the 1944 champions.
The slugging Seattle array,
back in second place after a 4-1
series' triumph at Sacramento,
also returns to the home lot to
take on the rejuvenated Sah Fran
cisco Seals, also starting Wednes
day. The Jiainlers are showing
some of the finest batting punch
In the league especially in the
long-distance clouting division
and have the type of them that
breaks up ball games without
advance nonce.
Tulnks Face Padres
Hollywood's bleak outlook for
the future probably won't be aid
ed and by the invasion of San
Diego tonight. The Padres have
Just dropped two heart-breaking
4-3 series in a row and the ace
mound staff of the border-town
gang should find the silent star
bats made to order.
Sacramento at Oakland offers
the following 'of the fine att, of
slugging a probable chance to get
their fill. Both -clubs are well
stdeked with gentlemen who can
sock the ball, and after a slim
week of base hits on both outfits,
a rash of slugging is predicted.

New York, May 15 (U'l Elvin
"Buster" Adams always will re
member V-E day. It was on May 8,
1945, that he was "liberated" frdm
the Phillies.
Adams, husky and handsome
outfielder of the St. Louis Card
inals, says, "I Just got home from
a movie In Philadelphia that
night, when, the phone rings. Man
ager Freddie Fitizsimmons of the
Phillies is on the phono. Ho tells
me I have been shifted to the St.
Louis club in a deal. I am to re
port to the Cards immediately.
"I'm klnda stunned when I hang
up the phone knocked groggy
with sudden and completely un
expected happiness. I give the
pnone a inendiy pat. men I yell
whoop-ee', and go dancing around
the room, r really felt liberated."
Buster of the curly, dark-brown
hair, who packs 190 pounds of
brawn on a iixfoot frame, talked
about. Ms transfer during a chat at
the notel New Yorker. This was
shortly before the Cards left for
Boston, where they open a series
today with the Braves.
The larruper from San Diego.
Calif., emphasized that he had no
wish to belittle the Phillies, who
had treated him fine during two
seasons with them, "But," he said,
a ball player lust naturally eels
a terrific kick when he jumps
trom a last-niaec club to the
world champions."
me man in the smoky-blue suit
added with a wry smile, "you get
Just as much of a lift when you
bounce from the Phillies to the
Cards, as you get sunk when you
make the trip in reverse. I know.
You will remember that I played
part of the 1943 season with the
Cards, and then wfes sent to the
Phillies on June 1. Sure these
ups and downs are all part of
baseball; but it's hard for outsid
ers to understand Just how much
happiness or sadness they bring
to the player."
Adams had been' with the St.
Louis chain for some time "when
traded to the Phillies, in '43. St.
Louis sent him and outfielders
Coaker Triplet! and Dain Clay to
the city of brotherly love for out
fielders Danny Lltwhiler arid Earl
Naylor.
But now. Manager Billy South-
worth of the Cards needed long
driving Buster back again. The
world champions had lost out
fielders Stan Muslal and Ultwhiler
to military service. And the club
seemed to lack punch. Seeking- a
capable outfield replacement, pilot
Southworth remembered Adams.
Buster had a good season with the
Phillies last year, hitting .283 and
playing excellently afield. He col
lected 17 home runs. Moreover he
is 29, married, and a 4-F because
of stomach, ulcers. Philadelphia
needed infield help; so a deal was
made. Southworth gave the Phil
lies two infteldcrs John Anto
nelll and Glen Crawford who
had been with the Cardinal farm
club at Columbus last season. And
Southworth got Adams. 1

ariem Battler
Held to Draw
Philadelphia, May 15 Mi Out
of the ranks of lightly rated
fighters came Jose Basora today
to spill the plans of Hay (Sugar)
Robinson, the Harlem hnttler.
. icei ; who until last night had been a
sure-shot for a title bout with
welterweight champion Freddie
Cochrane.
A 1 to 5 underdog in the bet-
ting, Basora fought Robinson to
a 10-round draw at Convention
hall last night and there wjere
many among the 14,653 fans who
thought he should have had the
decision. ' .
Basora, a swarthy Puerto
Rican, used his five-pound weight
advantage to score heavily against
the tiring Robinson In the late
rounds. : ,
Fair Trials Son
Favored to Win
Aroadia, Calif., May 15 (IPir--Civil
Code, Charles S. Howard's
long-legged sprinter, carrying top
weight at 118 pounds, was fa
vored to win today's featured
$5,000 Anita Chiquita race in the
first running of the Santa Anita
race track since March, 1941.
The speedy son or Fair Trial is
regarded as slightly superior to
others in the field of 10 compet
ing in the six furlong sixfh race.
The event is considered a rurieup
for Saturday's $25,000 added San
Gabriel handicap at the same dis
tance. Running with the favorite are
Carl Dupuy's Rover, 108; Mrs. J.
B. Burnstein's Gold Mike, 110;
Mrs. Clyde Phillips' Vain Prince,

zerte, 108; Emol Schwartzhaupt's
Tukka Gin, 112; Abraham Hirsch
berg's Black Bade, 112, and Mrs.
George Pulsen's "Broadcloth, 112.
Toward's thoroughbred won the
feature race in the opening day
at Hollywood park last year, in
southern California's last race be
fore' the government ban.
Big Turnout Due
About 50,000 turf enthusiasts
were expected in the stands for
the first competition at the track
since the army took over shortly
after Pearl Harbor. It was used
as a Japanese internment camp
and later as an ordnance base.
The racing plant was prepared
for an opening last December 30
after the army had returned it
to its owners, but war mobiliza
tion director James F. Byrnes'
edict cancelled that.
Meeting last Friday, the Cali
fornia horse racing board grant
ed the track a 40-day meeting to
run through July 7 on a five day
a week basis.
Most of the country's outstand
ing horses, already numbering up
wards of 1,300, will be on hand
for Uic season, which boasts 10
stakes of $25,000 or more. High
lights are the $100,000 Santa
Anita handicap, the $50,000 Santa
Margarita handicap, the $50,000'
Santa Anita derby and the sea-
son-closing $50,000 San Juan Cap
Istrano handicap. . i
Ageless Mel Ott
Paces Giants as
Team Again Wins
New . York, May , 15 (IB The
happiest guy m town today was
Ageless Mel Ott, the little giant
who has high hopes at last of
rewarding his loyal legion of fans
with a national league pennant.
His team, with 17 victories in 22
starts, Is off to the best getaway
for the league since Cincinnati
won the pennant in 1940. and there
are no indications of a crack-up.
There are plenty of factors to
account for the upsurge, but the
blgge-et is a terrorizing display
of home runs and extra base
power. That was the' case yester
day when the Giants won their
ninth game In the last 10, beating
the well regarded Chicago Cubs,
6- to 5, on two homers by Nap
Reyes Which accounted for four
of the runs. The game went into
extra innings and Phil Weintroub
had to break It up with a single
in the 10th which scored Ray
Treadway from second. Bill
Voiselle, who won his fifth game
on Saturday, came back in a re
lief stint to gain credit for his
sixth win without a defeat, put
ting nim on top in both leagues.
Homers Total 26
When it isn't Reyes, it's one of
the other long-range artists who
is likely to deliver the winning
punch with a homer. To date,
the Giants, led by Ott himself
with six, have hit 26 homers com
pared with 55 hits by all other
league teams combined. They're
far ahead of the 1944 timetable
when they had only 10 homers
at this time and didn't get their
26th until June 4.
The second place Dodgers kept
on winning at Brooklyn.making
It nine straight by defeating the
Pirates, 4 to 1, in Leroy Pfund's
major league starting debut - A
triple, a double and a single by
Fred (Dixie) Walker provided the
backbone of the batting punch.
The Dodgers gotonly six hits in
all off El (Preacher) Roe.
Reds Cash In
At Philadelphia, the Cincinnati
Reds chashed in on three errors
to score, four unearned runs in
the fourth and won, 5 to 4. Ex
service man Al Bosser, with re
lief help from Walter (Boom
Boom) Beck, won his first big
league victory. Bosser got by al
though he gave 10 walks. The
Reds made 11 hits. ,
