MANUEL SALVO IS FIRST TO FLING NO-HIT CONTEST By United Press A no-hit, no run masterpiece by Oakland Hurler Manuel Salvo gave the Acorns an even break In a doubleheader with the Sacramento Solons last night and kept Oakland in the Pacific Coast league lead, one-half game ahead of Los Angeles. Salvo tossed the league's first nine-inning no-hitter of the sea son to win a 2-0 finale after the Solons had taken the opener 2-1, Los Angeles edged out San Diego twice, 2-1 and 4-3, while San Francisco was defeating Seattle 2-0 and losing 1-0. Port land defeated Hollywood 3-1 to round out a series of pitching duels. Only two Solons got on base against Salvo, Al McElreath tak ing second in the fourth on Al Wright's two-base error and Ralph Watson reaching third in the seventh after walking. The 32-year-old veteran of 14 years of major and minor league ball chalked up his seventh win of the year against two losses. Ted Gullic drove in all three ol Portland's runs as the Beavers trimmed Hollyvood 3-1. Marino Picrcttl notched his 16th win of the year at the expense of Earl Escalante.

CHINA REORGANIZES Chungking, July 20 U.R r.nvnrniri tf t 'fry rt fhtnn'a war. torn provinces have been re moved and the provincial gov ernments reorganized, it was an nounced today. I p CLASH IN RETURN 1 THIS EVE Katonen Plans To Slug It Out With Matman Who Beaned Him With Bottle Paavo Katonen and Tony Mo relli stage their awaited return grapple match in the armory to night, a "grudge" affair that has generated more heat among fans and combatants alike than any thing even the weatherman could do. Katonen, the coast light-heavyweight champ, has sworn re venge against the marauding Morelli for the crack over the head the latter handed him with a pop bottle last week, while Terrible Tony has expressed equal determination to whip the big Finn and make it stick this time. Morelli, actually, did defeat Katonen in their last outing, but because he had to wield a bottle for the payoff, knocking the champion cold, the "victory" didn't stand up. The Medford Boxing Commission justifiably reversed the decision and gave Katonen the nod. Sellout Expected It's almost a certainty that the largest throng of the year per haps a standing-room-only gath ering will be on hand for the party. An additional 100 ring side chairs have been put up. and Promoter Mack Lillard warned reserved seats were being snap ped up rapidly. Katonen, whose favorite hold is a reverse chin lock, probably won't try very hard to apply it to Morelli. He plans to simply come out swinging to meet a like attack by the muscular Floridan. It's no secret that Morelli's mat system is to slug, and gouge eyes and choke and knee groins until his opponent is helpless and a cinch for a press. Katonen, thor oughly angered at Morelli, will employ the same tactics. Jack Lipscomb, the dirty-wrestling, self-strangle expert who licked Ivan Jones last week, will tangle with Tex Hauger, head lock specialist, in the four-round middle event. Jackson In Opener Opening the program, In a three-rounder, will be Bulldog Jackson of Portland, whose fame is based on his adroitness with the hammerlock and unorthodox tactics, versus Herb Parks, Cana dian Iigh t- heavyweight cham pion. The main event will be for one hour's straight wrestling time or two out of three falls. The card begins at 8:30. 17 LEADING PROS ENTER UTAH OPEN Salt Lake City, July 20 (U.R) Seventy western amateurs and 17 of the nation's top-ranking professionals competed today in a $600 pro-amateur tournament that forms the curtain raiser for the $2500 Utah open golf tourna ment opening tomorrow.

PARTS and SERVICE for all Makes ot WASHERS and REFRIGERATORS YOUNGER'S APPLIANCE SERVICE CO. 31 N. Btrtlett Phone 2419 YANKEES SQUARE SERIES WITH 6-5 New York, July 20. U.R The New York Yankees, thanks to a three run homer by Johnny Lindell, squared accounts with the St. Louis Browns in their big scries for the American league lead today, but neither team got an atom of support from St. Louis Cardinald Manager Billy Southworth, who still is not con vinced that his boys will win the pennant in their own circuit. While the Yankees were whit tling the St. Louis lead to two games with a 6 to 5 victory last night, Southworth was as fret ful as ever over his Cardinals, now a fat 12V4 games in front in the National league. Shrugging a discussion of pos sible world series opposition for fear of putting a "whammy" on the Cardinals, Southworth said "it Is downright foolish to talk about such things with matters as uncertain as they are in base ball, particularly in a wartime season like this." Victories by the Detroit Tig ers and the Cleveland Indians produced a three way tie with Washington for fourth place in the American league. The Tigers, winning their fifth game in seven starts, de feated Washington 2 to 1 in 10 innings.
