Snead Still Is
PGA Win Choice
Richmond. Va., May 30 UR
Th pre-tournament etioict of
Sammy Snead to win the nation
al PGA golf championship look
ed as good as ever today as the
alanrpmer met Jim Ferrier and
Lloyd Mangrum played Johnny
Palmer in the aemifinal
Snead was as hot at the Vir
ginia un as he belted out a 4
and 8 triumph over Jimmy De
mur! of OJai, Cal., in their
quarterfinal match yesterday.
And today he was the choice
again as he played Ferrier, the
transplanted Australian now of
San Francisco, in the 36-hole
aeml.
The final are tomorrow.
Postpone Monday
Softball Gomes
Monday evenings scheduled
Industrial snftball league as me
between Oregon Pulp & Paper
mnd Postoffice has been post
poned until 6.30 Thursday eve
ning. The City league schedule
Monday night pits O. P. At P
against Golden Pheasant at II
o'clock and Randle Oil v 13th
.their competition with a Me
morial day doubleheader Mon
day night.
The Bears, boasting a fat .316
team batting average, the best
in the loop, smacked Ray Mc
Nulty and Jim Osborn for 18
solid blows Saturday night with
McNulty taking the loss.
Bus Sporer went the route for
the Senators in the first game
Sunday night as he limited Yak
ima to five hits. And white the,
big right hander had control dif
'iculties at times, the hitting
support given him was more
than sufficient. The Solons
drove Teddy Savarese. one of
the Bears' prize pitchers, from
the mound in the third after
Bud Peterson had opened the
frame with a home run over
the left field fence. Dick Drill
ing replaced Savarese and con
trolled the situation thereafter '
Mel Wasley had opened the
second inning with a towering
homer over the center field
fence. Bob Cherry then came
through with a double. Bill
Beard and Bob Hedington with
singles to tally two more runs.
That ended the Solon scoring in
the first game but it proved more
than sufficient since the Bears
were unable to add to their
string of three collected in the
first frame.
The second tilt was close for
seven innings and when the
Bears went to bat In the last of
the eighth the Solons trailed by
a single run 5 to 4. But Jim Fos
ter was the victim of a blister
ing Bear attack In the eighth
and when the cannonading had
died down, Yakima had surged
to the front 9 to 4. Bus Sporer
replaced Foster midway of the
attack but his second pitch was
greeted by Ted Jennings with
a triple that drove in three runs
placed on the sacks by his pre
decessor.

Hollywood Shoves Bevos
Deeper into PCL Cellar
San Francisco. May 30 UR The Hollywood stars, who would
like nothing better than to play the Portland Beavers all season,
today had a comfortable five-game padding for their Pacific
Coast league lead.
The Stars, riding an eight-game winning streak, slapped Port
land twice yesterday for the
first full-series sweep of the cur-
rent season. The league leaders
sunk the Beavers deeper in the
basement mire with 8-4 and 3-2
wins.
In other games yesterday Se
attle dropped Oakland into the
second division by taking 6-1
and 2-1 victories. San Diego and
Los Angeles split, the Padres
whining number one 7-5 and
Los Angeles copping the second
game 6-5. The Sacramento So
lons took both ends from San
Francisco, 8 3. and 10-3.

Hollywood got fine pitching
and timely hitting as the Stars
pulled out further ahead of the
rest of the league. Gordon
Maltzberger and Jack Salveson
notched the wins over the un
happy Portlanders.
Seattle got back into the up
per division with their two wins
over the Acorns. Long Herman
Besse won the opener for his
first win in nine games.
Max West homered for San
Diego in each of the two con
tests with Los Angeles but his
second game blast fell one short
of tying up the game. In the
first game Luke Easter and Har
vey Storey hit for the circuit for
San Diego and Wayne Terwilli
ger slammed one for the Angels.
In the second game, Orestes Mi-
noso hit his first Pacific Coast
league homer with two on to
give the Padres a temporary
lead.
Ancient Tony Freitas tamed
the San Francisco Seals in the
first game of that doubleheader
tossing a seven-hitter in his first
start of the year. The Sacs ex
ploded for seven runs in the
fifth inning off their ex-mate
Steve Nagy, who had beaten
them three times in a row this
year.
In the second game the Sacs
gave ex-fireballer Frankie Das
so plenty of margin to work
with as they got 12 hits and 10
early runs. Dasso pitched care
ful six-hit ball, one of the hits
being a three-run homer bv Di
no Restelll. The double win gave
the Solons the series four to
three and marked the first time
this season they have won both
ends of a twin bill.

Loop Track Crown
Seattle, May 30 M The Tro
jan horse has nine lives, too.
Southern California's men of
Troy erased any lingering doubt
Saturday they can run faster,
jump better and throw farther
than anybody in the west. For
the ninth straight time they won
the Pacific Coast conference
track and field meet, scoring
almost as many points as the
next two teams put together.
It was so easy they didn't have
to come up with any sensation
al performances to slap the rest
of the conference into line. Their
71 points were within 212 of
the combined second and third
place totals. Stanford was runner-up
with 42, and UCLA third
with 32. Scrambling to get into
the picture was California with
28'.
The north side of the confer
ence picked the bones. It could
first place and tie for a couple
of others. Washington State had
14 points, Oregon lO'i, Ore
gon State 10, Washington 7,
Montana 5 and Idaho 4. Only in
1941 and '42 were the winning
totals higher, at 72 and 79
points.

Satchel Paige Tosses
Winner for Cleveland
By th. AaaoclatMl Prt
Will Satchell Paige, Cleveland legendary Negro pitcher, prove
another life-saver for the World champion Indians?
The ageless righthander indicated he might be a great help to
Manager Lou Boudreau'i injury-ridden pitching staff when he
hurled a seven-hit ball for a brilliant 2-1 11-inning victory yes
terday over the Chicago White I
Sox. Chicago won the first
game, 4-2.
Paige's performance nearly
overshadowed the zany goings
on in the National league pen
nant race, which today showed
three teams Brooklyn, New
York and Boston tied for first
place, with Cincinnati only one
game behind.
The top run in the National
league reached the suffocating
point as Brooklyn edged out
Boston 3-2, and the New York
Giants took a twin bill from the
Phillies in Philadelphia, 4-2 and
3-0. All three now own identi
cal 21-16 won and lost records.
Jackie Robinson's single off
Warren Spahn with the bases
loaded in the seventh drove in
the tying and winning runs for
Brooklyn.
Bobby Thomson was the big
gun in the Giants' double-barrelled
triumph. He smashed a
two-run homer to break up a
15-inning battle in the opener
and collected two singles and a
triple in the nightcap as first
time starter Hank Behrman
pitched a seven-inning one-hitter
for the Giants.
The Reds lost an opportunity
to make it a four-way tie for
first when the Chicago Cubs
whipped them 10-2 after Cincin
nati won the first game of their
doubleheader, 4-1. The Cubs ex
ploded for nine runs in the sixth
to rout Herman Wehmeier.
Pittsburgh snapped a seven
game losing streak with a 4-2
victory over Harry Brecheen
and the Cards in St. Louis. The
defeat ended a five-game win
ning streak for the Redbirds.
The Pirates' home run threat,
Ralph Kiner, boosted his aver
age up to a league leading .370.
The Cards' Red Schoendienst
ended his record 44-game error
less streak in the fourth inning
after handling 268 consecutive
chances over a two-season span.
The Philadelphia Athletics
moved to within four and a half
games of the American league
leading Yankees, defeating New
York, 3-1. The defeat snapped a
six-game winning streak for the
Bronx Bombers. Rookie Alex
Kellner limited the Yanks to six
hits for his sixth victory, half
of them over New York. A two-
run homer by Shortstop Eddie
Joost off Bob Porterfield high
lighted a three-run fifth inning
Bespectacled Paul Calvert
pitched the Washington Sena
tors to a 10-4 victory over the
Red Sox in Boston to drop Joe
McCarthy s men into third place.
Detroit swept its three-game
series with St. Louis, slamming
three Brownie pitchers for 14
hits and a 6-4 victory. A home
run by Hoot Evers with a mate
aboard in the seventh broke up
a tie.
