Tacoma, Wash., June 24 The awakened Tacoma Titers ran
their longest victory streak of the season to four with a 10-3 con
quest of the visiting Salem Senators Thursday night, pulling
within a half game of the fifth place Solons. It was the third
straight over the Senators and the 8th Tiger win in the last 10
contests.
Tacoma moves across th
mountains to open a four gam'
series with the league leadin;
Yakima Bears while the Senator
ferry over to Bremerton for a
many tilts with the Bluejackets
Playing errorless ball behin
lefty Bob Kerrigan, the Tiger
jolted Bill Osborn and Jim Fos
ter for 15 hits, including Dicl
Greco's mightly blast over th.
left center field wall with thi
bases empty. The Tigers stakec
Kerrigan to a six run lead ir
the first three frames and lit
had little difficulty in protectinf
the margin thereafter.
Eddie Barr and Al Spaetei
both acquired from the Senators
were the only members of the
Tacoma club that did not give
Osborn and Foster trouble. Both
were held hitless in their eight
official times up. But Al Cohen,
Glenn Stetter and Jack Warren
had little dificulty in solving the
offerings of the Solon chuckers
as each connected safely three
times.
Ray Orteig's three for five con
stituted the tops in offense for
the visiting Solons.
The loss was the fourth in a
row for the Solons who are now
but a half game out of sixth
place.

Hurlers Cool Top PCL
Teams; Walks Nip Bevos
San Francisco, June 24 (U.R) Youthful Bryan Stephens of Los
Angeles and ancient Dick Barrett of San Diego were hot enough
last night to cool off the two top teams in the Pacific Coast
league.
? Stephens got his first PCL win 'this season with a three-hit
shutout over the second place
Seattle Raimers while Barrett, a
longtime Suds hurler himself,
kept the Rainiers from losing
ground by stumping the flaming
Hollywood Stars on six blows.
Both hurlers got some help
from their teammates' home
runs. Wayne Terwillinger hit
one to help the Angels to 3-0 win
and San Diego clouted three as
they topped Hollywood 8-2.
The other league contests were
strictly non-professional with
San Francisco beating Portland
4-S in a game in which all runs
were scored as a result of walks.
Oakland toppled Sacramento 9-8
as nine pitchers filed to the
mound to take their lumps in a
free-hitting game.
Relief Pitcher Manny Perez
pitched excellent ball for the
Seals after taking over when
Steve Nagy developed a wild
streak in the second inning.
Nagy had made the Beavers a
gift of three runs in that frame
w:th four walks, a hit batter and
on.- single. Perez kept the plate
undented while the Seals scored
single runs in the fifth, sixth.
seventh and eighth innings, all
the tallies coming as the result
of batters passed by Relief Pitch
er Bill Fleming. Roy Partee
drove in the winning run for the
Seals.

Predict Vulnerable Champ
To Stimulate Boxing Game
Chicago, June 24 (U.R) Abe J. Greene, commissioner of the Na
tional Boxing association, predicted today that the coronation
of Ezzard Charles as champion would stimulate activity not only
in the heavyweight division but in other boxing classes.
Before returning to his home in Paterson, N. J., the commis
sioner said, "Young heavies all over the world will have a target
to shoot at now a champion who does not appear as formidable
as did the great Joe Louis.
"Louis was an idol of the boxing world of fans and fighters;
but he seemed such a superman that most young heavies doubted
they could ever attain the prowess necessary to beat him. That
was the chief reason why so little heavy talent was developed
during his 12-year reign."
