Br Judson Bailey (Associated Press Sports Writer) New York fans may never like "twi-night" baseball, but they are now ready to admit that the dimout plays po favor ltes. Twlca in two night tha Strug- - gles of the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants have been prematurely ended by the army regulations which requira that floodlights must be extinguished an hour after sundown. Monday this rule helped beat the Giants 7-4 when darkness smothered a promising rally in the last half of tha ninth inning to the violent displeasure of a crowd of 97.30S fans assembled for the benefit of army relief, Last night, h 6 w v e I , tht switching off of the Polo grounds lighta erased a four-run tenth-inning outburst by tha Dodgers and gave the Giants a 11 tie which tha teams will play off September 6. This time the 13,000 fans accepted the incident without a demons tration, although they had booed time-killing maneuvera of the rivals throughout tha game. Kings X Homer The fans' loss was slight com pared to that of Peewe Reese, tha Dodgers' little shortstop. who hit a home run Inside tha, vL h.I.U .

The Giants had little chance of getting a turn at bat anyway, and they made certain they would not by some dexterous stalling. Manager Mel Ott was slow in getting Reliei Pitcher Ace Adams to the mound. Than Adams walked tha first man he faced, made a wild pitch, got a batter on a fly and the game was over. The playing time was two hours and 34 minutes, one minute less than tha previous night. Although tha Dodgers didn't win, their National league lead was extended to 10 full games, their largest margin of tha sea son, because the St. Louis Card inals were set down 4-3 at Cin cinnati. The Pittsburgh Pirates cap tured a 21 decision over the Chicago Cubs on Frankla Gus tine's only hit of the day, a single with two on in tha 11th inning. At Philadelphia Jim Tobln limited the Phils to five hits, but was beaten 4-2 because the only runs the Boston Braves scored were on Tobin's own homer with a mate aboard In tha seventh inning. This was the big righthander's sixth circuit rlout of the year and tied Hal Schumacher's National league record for homers by a pitcher.

PNONt MUTVAI 141 By tha Aioclated Press San Diego, barely in the up per division, today holds the new Pacific Coast league bat ting mark of seven consecutive hits a record established in a single inning against the second place Sacramento club last night. The new baseball feat went on the books In the fourth Inning when the Padres scored 13 runs with a 13-hlt blast that wrecked the Salons 19 8. A record of six hits without an Intervening out was made June 4. 1928, by the old Holly wood club, forerunners to the Padres, In a game with the San Francisco Missions. Besides topping this mark last night, the San Diegans by send ing IS batters to the plate in a single inning for total of 13 hits, equalled two additional loop statistical oddities. Basehits also gave Oakland an 8-6 win over the league-lead ing Los Angeles Angels to bring the Oak win-streak to nine straight games. San Francisco and Hollywood had a comparatively quiet eve ning as the Seals' Bob Joyce won a hurling duel from Roy Joiner and Whitey Hilcher, 4-1. Seattle and Portland were traveling yesterday but are scheduled to open a series with a doubleheader at Portland to night. SARGE'S BOOK RETURNS WITH MANY NEW NAMES Phoenix, Arli., July 8. (Spl.l Sgt.

S (Pi The Pacific Coast league will fold up for the duration of the war, after Its current season ends In about two months. Pres ident Charles H. Graham of the San Francisco Seals believes.

Recently Graham's publicity man. Walter Malls. joined the marines. "Anyone can see tha way things are going," said Graham. lha army and navy are call ing up mora and moro men. De fense jobs ara claiming other thousands." Graham, who is known among coast sportsmen as an almost in curable optimist under ordinary circumstances, took deep breath and frowned. "I'm afraid this is our last season for the duration," ha de clared. "You may know how long that will be. I don't."

Hardest hit was Portland, where scheduled eight-team high school Jubilee starting the night grid season will be called off. The jubilee possibly will be moved up to daytime, as will all scheduled night games. Astoria, Seaside, Tillamook Oregon City, Milwaukie. Mo Mlnnvllle and Selem were other major high schools affected by tne oraer. The state basketball league will not be affected, since the schedule will be all but com. pleted before the dim-out begins Aug. zo. Remaining will be a two-game series, Bend at Silver ton. It probably will be played as a doubleheader Sunday, Aug. 23. Tha Portland dog racing meet will end before Aug. 20, but a horse racing program is scried uled at Gresham Aug. 24-30. It will be changed to the daytime The state softball tournament, scheduled for Salem, also will ba affected. Charles Walker, di rector of the Portland softball association, suggested that the tournament be transferred to Corvallis, which is outside the dim-out zone. Officials of the Salem West ern International league base ball club said they believed the club could finish the season by playing twilight ball. Only two series, against Spokane begin ning August 21 and against Ta- coma beginning August 24 are scheduled in the Salem park after the dim-out order becomes effective. The Salem officials said, how ever, that the dim-out order dooms baseball here next season Spokane and Vancouver, half the membership of the league, are not in the dim-out zone, while most of Tacoma's games after August 20 are away from home.
