Rainiers Score Three
Rons But Lose to LA.
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Seattle Rainiers got oft the
goose egg diet Thursday night but
the three runs allowed them by
Bill Sweeney's Los Angeles ngcls
didn't fatten them noticeably. The
Angels won again 8-3.
The Rainiers had gone scoreless
for 20 Innings before they finally
managed a run In the second
frame of the Pacific Coast League
contest at Los Angeles. Sweeney,
Los Angeles skipper fired by Se
attle last fall, led the Angels to
3-0 and 9-0 triumphs the two prev
ious nights.
Bob Spicer went the route for
the Angels, holding Jerry Priddy's
club to nine hits: The Angels col
lected 12 off four Seattle hurlers
and one of them was a homer in
the third by First baseman Fred
Richards with two on-, his 11th of
the season. Roy Orteig homered
for Seattle. ..

Little Fellow
Clips Six Off
Par First Day
BALTIMORE UV-Bob Toskl,-a
little shaver from Livingston, N.J.,
was the biggest target of a strong
pursuing field today as the $20,000
Eastern Open Tournament went
into the second round at muddy
Mt. Pleasant golf course here.
The 127-pound Toski admitted he
surprised even himself by clipping
6 strokes off par 72 during an
abominably cold, steady rain over
the 6,895-yard layout.
His sparkling 66 was good
enough for a 2-stroko lead over
handsome Jack Burke Jr., the
Texas registered from Kaimcsha
Lake, N. Y. Burke, playing hatlcss
and frequently disdaining the shel
ter of an umbrella held by his
caddy, posted his 68 earlier in the
day. when the rain was even
heavier.
Tied for third at 70 were Peter
Thomson of Melbourne, Australia
Jim Turnesa of Briarcliff, N. Y.
and little-known Mike Fetchick of
Yonkcrs, N. Y.
The only other par breakers In
the scheduled field of 115 wore
Ed Oliver, Lemont, 111.: Bob Du
den, Portland, Ore.; and two pre
vious Eastern Open winners
Lloyd Mangrum, Nilcs, 111., -and
Cory Middlecoff, Kiamesha Lake.
All were grouped at 71.
Dick Mayer, the defending
champion from St. Petersburg,
Fla., was 1 under at the turn but

It began when such highly touted
DrosDects as Turn To and porter
house were put out of action with
Injuries early. Then Determine
came along to win the May
Kentucky Derby, first of the triple
crown classics which bear heavily
on selection of the 3-year-old

Crevalin, has left the door open
now by keeping mm out of tne

So tomorrow's winner of the 78th

Of even more importance to the
cards was the blossoming of Tom
Poholsky as a starting pitcher. The
big right-hander was used twice on
the trip. He lost a 1-0 heartbreaker
in Brooklyn, where he allowed only
three hits. And be went the dis

biggest question mark from the
very start of spring training, has
left a lot to be desired. Manager
Stanky has been using Harvey

At one time or another every
body except Raschi, the $75,000 ac
quisition from the New York Yan

times the Cardinals' rivals have
scored 10 or more runs.
No wonder Poholsky. fresh from
two years in the Army, looks good.
while the pitching has been
shaky, the hitting has been amaz

.299 and five of the regulars are

top men in the league.
