McDonald-Mihalikis Rematch Headlines Tonight's Grapple Card
fE
BENT ON REVENGE
FOR FIRST LOSS
Brazil and Kruse Clash In
Middle Go Jim Casey
. and Corral Open Program
Prince Selakl Mihalikis, the
orJy unbeaten grappler of Pro
moter Mack Lillard's current
trouDe. will engage in his sec
ond rematch in a month when
ha goes against enraged Sockeye
Jack McDonald in the super-
duper main event o tonight's
armory mat program.
It seems like Mihalikis can't
get away from these return bat
tles. On June IS Mihalikis, in
his first appearance here In two
years, defeated Camp White's
George Craig, and did it in such
a manner that Craig demanded
another shot at him. He got it,
the next week, and the clash
ended in a draw.
Then, last Monday night, Mi
halikis whipped Jack McDonald
ii a torrid fracas, and, like Craig,
McDonald was so burned up at
the way the Prince gained his
victory that he Immediately chal
lenged Mihalikis to a return en
gagement. Mihalikis readily
agreed and now the stage is all
set for what may be the most
violent grapple argument staged
bere in months and months.
. McDonald, a determined sort
of fellow and tough as they come,
Is prepared to knock the tar out
of the Arabian and as soon as
possible. While Sockeye hasn't
put it in words, he acts like he
is planning to waste no time on
legitimate tactics once he gets
Mihalikis in the ring with him.
. Mihalikis, on the other hand,
hasn't built up a reputation as a
scientific workman, although he
can trade straight stuff with any
of the boys, and is expected to
go outt here and try to get rid
of McDonald in any lasnion.
Meeting in the six-round mid
dle event will be Pedro Brazil,
good-looking South American
champion, and Broccoli Bob
Kruse, while opening the card
will be Alberto Corral and Irish
Jim Casey. The curtain-raiser
starts at 8:30 sharp.

Seals Bury Beavers
Deeper in Basement
With Two Victories
By the Associated Press
Seattle showed signs of last
year's historic late season spurt
this weekend as they won three
games and dropped one to Holly
wood to strengthen their fifth
place position In Pacific coast
baseball league standings.
The Rainicrs dropper" the first
game yesterdny, 1 to 4, although
they pounded Johnny Bitncr for
13 hits. Mike Budnick hurled
a three-hit seven-inning second
game with his teammates collect
ing two runs for a 2 to 0 Rainier
win.
Portland, meanwhile, dug a lit
tle deeper into the league cellar,
losing four straight to San Fran
cisco. Seal batsmen amassed 18 hits
to Portland's nine yesterday to
win the first game, 8 to 4. Wavne
Osborne, Beaver righthander,
lost the game by giving the Seals
an early lead, but was not re
lieved until the ninth frame after
a bad eighth inning when Sun
Francisco made three runs. Ed
Stutz went the route for the
Seals.
San Francisco scored all its
runs in the sixth inning of the
nightcapt o win 5 to 0. Ray Har
rell held Portland to only three
hits while the Seals reached For
rest Orrell for only 8.
The Seals are now two and a
half games behind the third
place San Diego club which end
ed a four-game week-end of play
with Los Angeles by walking the
Angels to a 2 to 1 victory in
extra innings of their second
game yesterday. The Padres won
the nener, 4 to 3.
Sacramento took a doubie
hcader from Oakland to win the
series, five games to three, a:id

rr.lly in the ninth inning of the
opener, but were unable to over
take the solons, who collected
t' unearned runs in the
seventh on an error by Second
Baseman Hugh Luby, to win. 7
to 5.
The solons took the seven-Inning

Nangano Drayage of San
Francisco, executing four siz
zling double plays behind the
five-hit hurling of Walt HJort
and pounding Steve Crippen for
13 diows including three dou
bles and a triple, defeated the
Medford Craters 11 to 5 here
yesterday to gain an even break
in the two-game holiday series.
The Craters were blanked
for six innings as the classy
Nangano Infield ripped off a
quartet of twin killings to nul
lify the three singles HJort
yielded, but the locals managed
to tally thrice in the seventh
on two walks, a pair of errors
and Waite's single to center.
Two more passes In the ninth,
Johnny Gitzen's double to right-
center and an outfield fly from
the bat of Harold Lange gave
the Craters their final two
runs.
While Hfort was mastering
the home team hitters, aided by
some of the most spectacular in
field play seen here in years, his
mates were making life miser
able for Crippen. It must be
said in the red-head's behalf,
however, that his defense was
terrible. Although the Craters
were charged with only four
errors their mental blunders
contributed even more to the
downfall.
Defensa Falls
Three singles and two walks
gave the visitors a couple of
runs in the first inning, two
singles around a sacrifice ac
counted for another in the third
and eight more markers came
across in the last four frames
as the Crater defense cracked
wide open and the Californians
helped their own cause with
nine base knocks.
It was a fine game for five
innings, with Nangano leading
6 to 0 going into the sixth.
Those four double plays, how
ever seemed to break the Crat
ers' hearts, and well they might
All of them were positively sensational.
In the first inning Jack
Swarvck led off with a single
to right, but Third Baseman F
Ahem grabbed wortmey s
smash and turned it into a two-
ply slaughter.
In the third the Craters again
got a man on first when Crip
pen walked, but second Base
man Flynn tock Swaryck's drive
to his right and started another
double slaying.
F. Ahem was the gent who
again inaugurated a twin kill
ing In the fourth. After Norm
Worthlcy singled through the
box he snatched Manager Dutch I
Lieber's bounder and fired to
Flynn, whose throw to first
nipped the skipper.
Shortstop Mullens started still
another double play in the fifth,
the victim being Waite follow
ing a walk to Lange.
Gitsen Hits Two
Flynn, with a triple and dou
ble and Burke and Mullens with
three singles each led the visi
tors at the plate, while Gitzen
hit a double and single for the
locals.

When the St. Louis Browns scored two runs in the fifth inning of a game in Detroit recently,
the switchboard operator connected the "7." button without releasing the "5" button, giving the
Brownies a total of "75.".. After Detroit fans booed and cheered, the marker was finally corrected
but the large score might have been suitable anyway as Detroit lost, 12 to 0.
