first baseball In the Mormon
country of Ogden, was tired but
philosophic about pitching the
best but losing game in the
Pacific Coast league in 14 years.
Singleton curved and fast
balled his way through 12 13
innings of no-hit, no-run base
ball last night. But in the 13th,
Elmer grew arm weary, gave up
three straight singles and lost
the ball game to Sacramento,
1-0.
Three Days Rest
The mound veteran, unbeaten
In three starts, worked against
the Solons with but three days
rest. He pitched and won for the
Seals Sunday. Singleton issued
three bases on balls, one inten
tionally, during the 13 frames.
He struck out seven.
Four other clubs were extra-Inning
minded. Sammy Chapman
singled in the 10th to gain Oak
land a 3-2 win from Seattle; and
Jim Russell blasted a 380-foot
homer in the 17th to secure Port
land a 6-5 triumph over Los An
geles. In a regulation game,
Hollywood tallied nine times In
the fourth inning to liquidat
San Diego, 9-0.
Near Record
Singleton came within one
out of tying the all-time PCL
record of 12 23 innings of no
hit, norun pitching, set by Dick
Ward, of San Diego, on Aug. 30,
1938. Ward eventually beat Los
Angeles, 1-0, In 16.
Singleton had the misfortune
to oppose tough Jess Flores, who
spun an eight hitter and was
stingl in the clutches. Flores
earlier this year came within one
pitch of notching himself a no
hit, no-run game.

ELROD'S TROUT FARM
4 Miles West of Talont on Anderson Creek
Fast Early
Pace Shown
By Red Sox
By UNITED PRESS
The Boston Red Sox, almost
unnoticed so .far in the furore
over the surprising showing of
the St. Louis Browns, were blaz
ing along at their fastest early
pace since 1948, the last year
they won a pennant.
It could be that the Red Sox,
and not the Browns, will turn
out to be the "surprise" outfit
of the year a "team of des
tiny" fashioned by Lou Bou-
dreau out of raw rookies and a
handful of powerful veterans.
Big Shots Benched
Boudreau, . who never did
things according to the conven
tional rules anyway, has been
benching such big shot talent as
Ted Williams, Vern Stephens
and occasionally Johnny Pesky
and Billy Goodman, and he's
getting away with It.
He knows that Williams will
be lost to the Marines next week
anyway, and he also knows that
in past years the Red Sox frit
tered away great opportunities
in the spring and lost ground
they never could make up.
Two Key Wins
Against the World Champion
Yankees, still the team that has
to be knocked down In the long
run, the Red Sox put on the
pressure and won two key games
in a row.
Thursday, winning their ninth
game against only two losses so
far, the Red Sox came from be
hind to top the Yankees, 3 to 2,
in 11 innings.
In the only other game played
Thursday, the Braves wiped out
a 3 to 0 deficit with a three-run
rally in the eighth, then went
on to beat the Giants, 6 to 3, in
the 10th as rookie reliever Lew
Burdette pitched five scoreless
innings. .
Cagers Contend
For Pro Diadem
Mineapolis, (U.R) The Min
neapolis Lakers and New York
Knickerbockers battle each other
Friday night for the national
professional basketball title and
the "pot of gold" that goes with
it.
The string in the best of seven
series has run out with each
team holding three victories.
New York knotted the series
Wednesday In New York with a
78 to 68 victory.
To the winner Friday night
goes the loop trophy and prize
money of 7,ouu.
Both teams were at full
strength. The Lakers announced

games because of a wrenched

Giants' catcher Wcs Westrum. Cusick tried to score from first on Gene Conley's hit to leftfield in the
second inning of game at New York. Giant leftfielder Hank Thompson's throw to Westrum was in time
to nab Cusick. . .
