Last night Guy Fletcher turn ed in a one-hitter as the Rainiers blanked Los Angeles, 2 to 0, to take a 2-1 series margin. That performance on top of Dick "Kewpie" Barret's seven-inning no-hit, no-run perfect game Sun day shows the Suds can knock any team out of the bunting if they don t win it themselves. Mighty San Francisco bowed to Oakland last night for the sec ond time running, 2 to 1, ending a 21-inning scoring drouth on a single tally In the ninth frame. Padres Smothered At San Diego the Hollywood Stars smothered the Padres under a 20-hit attack, winning 13 to 2. Sacramento made it two straight over Portland, dropping the Beavers 8 to 2. Fletcher, in annexing his third win as against three losses, yield ed only a single In the fourth inn ing, struck out four men and is sued only one free pass to first. Losing pitcher Dewey Adkins also turned in a creditable chore, granting the suds live hits, and striking out eight batters. Aldon Wilkie earned his fourth victory at Oakland, granting the Seals only eight scattered hits and scoring the -winning run. Loyd Christopher homered for the other Acorn tally. Lefty Al Lien was charged with the loss. Hits Four limes Don Ross hit safely four times in six trips to lead the Hollywood batting attack on the Padres. Lou .Kahn homered with two on and singled for his fourth run-batted-in of the evening. Pete Gebrian was the winner although he gave the Pads 11 hits. Jess Flores chalked the loss, but Bob Kerri gan and Phil Walden helped him earn it. Babe Dahlgren homered with two aboard at Portland to form the backbone of a juicy, seven run Sacramento second inning. Fenton Mole hit a round-tripper for the Ports. Lou Tost was the winning hurler, granting seven safeties. Duane Pillette lasted only until the fatal second to re ceive the loss.

Quick Death Play Faced by Golfers St. Louis, May 21 U"i The boys who make playing golf their business set out grimly today to eliminate each other in the first round of match play of the 30th annual PGA championship where big money rides on every stroke. A field of 64 play-for-pay stars, who survived qualifying rounds Wednesday and Thursday, faced two rounds of sudden death play today. When dusk halts the shoot ing, there will be only 16 players left in competition and, if the tourney follows the pattern of other years, some of these will be surprises. Prime objects for upset fever over the par 71 Norwood Hills course Were defending champion Jim Ferrier of San Francisco, and burly Stewart (Skip) Alexander, a 29-year-old Lexington, N. C, challenger who finished as me dalist. Makes 70 Score ' Alexander, who slashed one stroke off par with a 70 on his first round, riddled the regula tion figures on his second go at the 6.426-yard layout. He toured the first nine in 32, three under par, but really started to roll on the second half of the course. He birdied four of the first six holes, five of the next eight and was eight under par with only one one hole to play. Needing only a par to the 63 record for 18 holes in PGA play, set by Ferrier at Portland in 1946, Alexander found the 18th too much. Had he made the par to tie the 63. he would have shattered the 134 with which Ferrier won the medal two years ago. Instead, young Skip twisted his second shot off line into a trap. Then he two-putted from 15 feet for a bogey and a 64. Still it was enouprh to win the $250 prize and the Alex Smith memorial trophy with a record-tying 134. 2 Perfect Scores Made by Gunners Two members of the Bend Trap club turned in perfect scores in a practice shoot yesterday after noon and three other gunners made scores just short of perfect. In the 100 per cent class were Everett Rambo and N. R. Gilbert. Each broke 25 targets out of 25 trapped. Lloyd Maglll, Dr. J. C. Vandevert and Bill Hyatt turned In scores of 24 each. The next practice of tho club will be held Sunday, on thd gr' jnds south of town. BLUEBEURY-API'LE JUICE Brunswick, Me. Ul'i Here's the latest breakfast table delicacy blueberry-apple juice.

R BEND, DESCHUTES COUNTY, OREGON, FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1948 St. Louis Cards Bombard Brooks; Pirates Win 13-0 New York, May 21 (Hi Take the National league's best pitch ing staff, add a hitting spree that has boosted the club's .batting average 22 points in six games, shake a little of the old "gas house gang" spirit and ou may have a pennant formula. At least that was what the hap piest guy in town, Manager Ed die Dyer of those cannonball Cardinals, was thinking today as he and the high-flying Red Birds left for Boston and an important series with the Braves. "We were due to start hitting and now if the pitching holds up we can't ask for much more," said Texas Eddie after the Cards bombarded the Dodgers, 13 to 4 for a sweep of the three-game series in Brooklyn and the club's sixth straight victory. Dyer Protests The "gashouse spirit" boiled up yesterday when the Cards became incensed over what Dyer insisted was the Intentional beaning of catcher Del Rice by relief pitcher Hugh Casey. Casey, normally a control expert, previously had hit Whitey Kurowski in the back with a pitch and when Rice was felled and shaken up badly, Dyer protested that Casey should be ejected from the game. He argued so long that he was thrown out himself an unusual situation for the mild-mannered Texan. Gets Four Runs Rice, before being felled, drove in four runs with a pair of doub les as Howie Pollet coasted to his fourth straight victory, a victory which put the Cards 2xh games ahead of the second place Giants. The peppery Pirates also put on a big hitting show at Boston, getting 17 safe blows including Ralph Kiner's ninth homer in a 13 to 0 triumph over the Braves. Six-hit pitching by Howard Fox gave the Reds a 3 to 1 victory over the Giants at New York with rookie Virgil Stallcup sup plying the punch on three sing les and a walk.

The Tigers won from the Ath letics, 4 to 2 at Detroit on five hit pitching by Freddy Hutchin son and a 15-hit attack In which Bob Swift hit a homer and two singles and George Vico and Pat Miillln eacn got three nits.
