Th Portland Beavcrt ara p-
Krently tired of running along
hind the Pacific Coast league
baseball pack.
Th Inspiration of playing ba
ton horn fans may hava some
thing to do with It, but whatever
the explanation, the Beaver
are making their bid to finish
the season out of the cellar.
Last Night, the PorUanders
nosed out Oakland by one-run
margins In two abbreviated
games. The first game went
seven innings and ended 8 to 2,
while the second contest ended
In the fifth, 8 to 7, because of
the league rule that forbids
starting an Inning of play after
11:90 p. m,
Oakland collected nine safe
ties off Ad Llska in the opener
as Henry Pippen held the Beav
ers to five hits, but the breaks
were with the winners.
Win Early
Portland batters recovered In
the second game to pound out
four hits for a five-run lead in
the first inning. In all the Beav
er collected 11 hits to 10 for
the Oaks, who nearly won out
in last Inning rally in which
they scored three runs on five
hits.
Each of the ether league
games were decided by one-run
margins.
The second-place Los Angeles
Angels used a four-run rally in
the fifth to nose out the Sacra
mento Solons, league paceset
ter, 6 to S. The win put the
Angels within a game and one
half of the Solons.
San Diego, playing at San
Francisco, also outhlt the Seals
S safeties to 7, but dropped a
decision 3 to 2 as the host team
took advantage of a few lucky
breaks.
Hollywood was kept Idle by a
postponement at Seattle, but the
teams make up the lost game in
a doubleheader tonight

By Judson Bailey
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
The secret of successful pltcn-
lng sometimes seems to be luck
as much as skill.
Yesterday Ray Starr, the lean
spellbinder of the Cincinnati
Reds, pitched three-hit ball and
was beaten 2-1 by the pitiful
Phils because two outfielders
collided under a fly hit by
Pitcher Frank (Rube) Melton
and the ball fell for a home run.
On the other hand Vern Ol
sen, the Chicago Cubs' south
paw, was pummeled for 11 hits
by the New York Giants and
not only escaped with his sixth
straight victory but scored
shutout. 3-0.
Starr's misfortune came In
the fifth Inning just after his
teammates had given him a 1-0
lead. The 36-year-old rookie
had walked Catcher Benny
Warren of the Phils and then
Melton lifted a long fly to left
center. Outfielders Max Mar
shall and Harry Craft raced for
it and knocked each other to
the ground. The ball rolled
away for a homer and time had
to be called and stretchers, too
before the game could con
tinue.
At Chicago the Giants got
men on base In every Inning and
made hits in the first eight, but
they never were able to break
through Olsen for a run. The
Cubs, made three less hits off
two New York pitchers, but Lou
Novlkoff singled home two tal
lies in the fifth and the Cubs
scored In the eighth on two
singles one of the scratchy
sort.
. Cards Win
At St Louis Mort Cooper had
luck of a different sort. He was
bitted out of the box for the
third time in succession, but the
Cardinals rallied spectacularly
to beat the Boston Braves, 7-5,
in 11 Innings. ,
Brooklyn punished the Pitts
burgh Pirates 8-1 with Whitlow
Wyatt pitching three-hit ball for
his tenth triumph of the year in
a night game that drew 21,294
fans at Pittsburgh.
Wyatt's path was made easy
when Billy Herman doubled
with the bases loaded In th '
first inning for three runs.
In the American league, the
New York Yankees downed the
Detroit Tigers 3-0 on the two
hit hurling of rookie Hank
Borowy and extended their first
place margin to six games as
the Boston Red Sox absorbed
another beating by the St. Louis
Browns, 3-2.
