Beavers Washed Again
3 Twin Bills in Row Set
Portland 0J.B Rain forced
cancellation of a Pacific Coast
Liiie doubleheader here
lait nlfht between Portland
and San Diego.
The teami were to meet here
In donbleheadert tonight, to
morrow and Monday night
By SCOTT BAILLE
San Francisco CUJD The Pa
cific Coast League is supposed
to be headed toward major
league status, or something, so
along comes a guy named Tony
Ponce from the Class C Cali
fornia League and wins a slx
hltter in his debut with the San
Francisco Seals.
Ponce was liberally splash
ed with red ink while toiling
for the Seals, last-place Ven
tura farm club in the state
league this year. He lost 20
games to set a loop record, al
though he also chalked up 19
wins for a team that is about
IS games off the pace.
Any latent talent the switch
h it ting right-hander from
' Whittier had in his sturdy arm
came to the fore last night as
he handcuffed the Oaks with
those six blows. And while
Ponce performed at his best,
the Seals lathered three Oak
land hurlera for 15 hits and a
19-2 victory.
Other Games
In other PCL games, Seattle
pared Hollywood's juicy lead to
Stt games by defeating Sacra
mento 8-4 while Los Angeles
was dimming the Stars, 2-1, be
hind Cal McLish's three-hitter.
George Bamberger was the
most pitiful victim of the Seals
attack. Manager Augie Galan
let Bamby stagger through a
seven-run fifth Inning which
assured the erstwhile New
York Giant of his 18th defeat
Bill Howerton vainly homered
for him In the fifth when he
crashed a drive over the center
field screen.
The Details
Tom Lovrich saved the day
for the Ranters after the pesky
Sacs had routed Bill Xvans
with a five-run splurge In the
fourth Inning. Lovrich held the
Solons to five hits for the rest
of the night and blanked them
for his eighth win.
Marino Pleretti. who was
belted for five Seattle runs in
the third inning, took his 19th
loss before leaving the hill.
McLish bested George O'
SonneUn an old fashioned duel
that saw the Choctaw Indian
notch his 15th win. O'Donnell,
in quest of his 20th victory,
was dropped for his eighth loss.
Les Pedcn broke up the game
In the ninth with a two-bagger
after Gene Baker had aingled.
A crowd of 10,158 came out to
see the erosstown fuss.

man, an old hand at bombing,
rejoined the New York Yank
ees Saturday with the hopes
he'll get to do a different kind
of bombing before the baseball
season ends.
The Yankee second baseman,
veteran of 87 bombing missions
in the World War II and fresh
from 63 more in Korea, signed
a contract in New York Friday.
The terms of the agreement
were not disclosed but he was
said to be getting $12,000 or
more when called up as a Mar
ine captain April 30, 1952.
Although in fine physical
eondtion, Coleman was not
sura whether he will be able
to contribute anything to the
Yankees in the drive for their
fifth straight pennant.

Portland, Vf) Power
trouble caused cancellation of
the horse racing program at
Portland Meadows Friday for
the second night in succession.
As the first race started
forth, a transformer failure
halted the program Thursday
night Then heavy rains Fri
day prevented repair work en
the transformer. The Meadows
is scheduled to close for two
weeks at the end of Saturday
afternoon's program becaui
of a conflict with horse racing
at the Oregon State Fair and

Fculk, Riley In
finals .Yemen's
Amateur Tourney !
By HUGH ITTLLERTON
Providence, RX, Vf If
Mary Lena Faalk only had her
owa golf elaas, she might have
made a shambles of the 115J
U.S. Women's Amateur cham
pionship. As It is, she's rated no worse
than a toss-up against Polly
Riley in Saturday's 38-hole
final for the 63rd champion
ship. Ail through this tourna
ment the lean, jut-Jawed
ThomasviUe. Ga., girl has been
playing with a set of irons
borrowed from pro Peggy
Kirk, and a once-discarded
set of woods and putter. And
through the five rounds she
scored better than anyone in
the tournament.
After losing to Phhomena
Garvey lin the semi-finals of
the British Amateur cham
pionship last June, Mary Lena
shipped her clubs home by
boat. :
" She's waiting for tlfem. and
that's why she had to use the
makeshift set when she re
turned to competition after a
long rest.
The new ones almost failed
her Friday in her semi-final
match against 18-year-old
Margaret (Willi) Smith of
Mexico.
She got off to a rocky start
and lost the second and third
holes after going 29 straight
holes without losing one and
men went inree down with a
double-bogey five on the fifth
hole.
She fought her way back to
a 8 and 2 victory over the
calm, reddish-haired Gaudala
jara girt
Against Miss Riley, a mus
cular five-footer whom she
had met on three other occa
sions. Miss Faulk won t be
able to afford a letdown.
Polly, who has come through
the hardest quarter of the
draw, had another rough
match Friday against Mrs.
Philip J. Cudone of Monte lair,
N.J., but pulled it out on the
19th green after catching up
at the 16th.
Both of the finalists are 27
years old; they both work as
bookkeepers Polly for a Fort
Worth law firm; Mary Lena In
her father's automobile agen
cy. And they're both in the final
of the national- championship
for the first time.

Vancouver, Salem in Twin
Bill Sunday Night, Too .
The Salem Senators, their
financial situation aching be
cause of rain this week, meet
the Vancouver Capllanos in a
1 o'clock donbleheader tonight
providing the weather la kind.
Salem and Vancouver were
washed out of their scheduled
game at Waters park last night
That was another blow io the
sad financial state of the Sena
tors. Unless especially good
crowds turn out for tonight and
tomorrow night's doublehead
ers, the Senators wil show a
rather substantial loss for the
season. .
Tomorrow's doubleheader,
which marks the final home ap
pearance of the Senators in
regular season play, starts at
6:30.
Some lucky fan attending to
night's game will take home a
brand new home freezer, full
of food. So if you feel this is
your lucky day, better bring
you trailer to the game.

The Spokane Indians con'
tinued to mike a tig' t race of
it in the Western International
League Friday night, winning a
doubleheader from Calgary, 13'
0, and 10-8, while the league
leading Lewiston Broncs were
defeating Victoria, 10-1
The double win still left the
Indians 10 percentage points
behind Lewiston although the
games behind column showed
them even. But as the saying
goes, they pay off on the per
centages.
The only position to change
in the standings occurred when
Tri-City defeated Wenatchee,
4-3, to move into eighth posi
tion, pushing the Chiefs into
ninth.
Yakima strengthened its bold
on sixth place with a 7-1 win
over Edmonton, closing the gap
slightly between it and Van
couver, which was idled at Sa
lem because of wet grounds.
The circuit's pitchers hurled
tighter than usual ball in the
evening's contests, particularly
at Spokane, Yakima and Wen
atchee. The best performance
was turned in by Jack Spring,
who limited Calgary to three
safeties in the opening game.
The second tilt was a different
matter, with both nines getting
13 hits and using two pitchers
each.
Tri-City got only six hits and
Wenatchee five, with relief
hurler Jess Oobenic getting
credit for the win at Wenat
chee. Bobernic came in in the
seventh and gave up two runs
but then held the Chiefs score
less for his 13th win of the sea
son against six losses. He has
performed relief duties 45
times this year.
Danny Rios had a four-hit
ter at Yakima for his 18th vic
tory of the season but he got a
lot of help from John Albinl,
Bear catcher, who hit a homer,
a double and a single. Albinl's
homer wss the opening score
and the double drove in
winning run.
At Victoria, the
Lewiston
nine couldn't get started until
the sixth inning, when it was
trailing, 0-0. Then they clinch
ed the game with four runs on
walk, two doubles and two
singles. Six successive hits

NIWS AND HATIMU
Grimm Should Rate
Consideration for
Manager of Year
New York UJ Milwaukee's
pennant dreams have been
abruptly Interrupted by Brook
lyn's alarm clock but J ally
Charley Grimm rated serious
consideration today aa the Na
tional League manager of the
year with his transplanted
Braves.
It is a "matter- of simple
mathematics. Not only have
the Braves moved up from
seventh to an almost assured
second place finish in the race
for the greatest improvement
of any club, but they have im
proved on their 19S2 final per
centage by 191 points as of
now. Not even Brooklyn has
done that well, although if the
Dodgers continue at their pres
ent pace they will finish with
the best won and lost record
since the 1942 Cardinals.
Home Teams Rate
The Phillies are six percent
age points off, the Cardinals
19, the Giants 129, the Reds
four, and the Cubs 119. The
Pirates who couldn't do much
but go upward from their
frightful 1932 finish are 35
percentage points better at the
moment.
Lefty Warren Spahn, one of
many key men in Milwaukee's
great surge upward, pitched a
five hit 3-1 victory over the
Giants for his 19th triumph
last night and also belted the
game's only homer. That put
him within one game of a cov
eted 20th triumph which would
make him the first National
League pitcher since Carl Hub
bel to hit that figure in five
different seasons.
Other Games
Brooklyn kept up a pace to
discourage even the hardiest of
Milwaukee rooters, staying 9 ty
games in front with a 9-8 tri
umph over Cincinnati,
Curt Simmons pitched the
reviving Thillies to their sev
enth victory in the last eight
games, blanking the Cubs, 8-0,
on five hits while Red Schoen
dienst drove in two runs with
a pinch single in the seventh
to give the Cardinals at 10-9
victory at Pittsburgh.
Early Wynn became the first
pitcher to beat the Yankees
four times as Cleveland made
it two in a row over tha
champs behind his six-hitter
with a 3-2 triumph. But tha
White Sox in second place re
mained 9H games back when
the Red Sox edged them, 4-3.
Vic Wertz drove in the win
ning run for the Browns with
a fifth-inning triple as they
took their third in a row from
the Athletics, 8-3. Wsshlngtoii
defeated Detroit, 7-4, an Walt
Masterson's eight-hitter.
