There wore several marked changes In positions over the week-end. Seattle, long In first place, dropped to second, while San Francisco advanced from seventh to fourth. San Diego climbed to sixth place and Port land replaced that club in the cellar. Oakland won the first game from Portland yesterday, 3 to 0, stretching its series of consecu tive victories to seven. Portland turned the tables in the seven inning nightcap, however, for a 4 to 2 victory. Eight thousand home town fans turned out to watch Holly wood do bottle with Scuttle.

At San Diego, Los Angeles shut out the home town team, 7 to 0, in the first game, but a home run with one man on base in the sixth inning gave San Diogo a 5 to 4 nightcap victory.
