Stars Nick Portland
iVith Vice's Home Run
By DON THACKERY
United Pres Sports Writer
The Hollywood Stars, who just
got back from a trip to the Pa
cific Coast League basement, ap
parently did a little bargain
hunting and came up with
George Vico.
The much-traveled Mr. V.
signed as a free agent last week
after stints with four other PCL
clubs, clouted a tenth inning
pinch hit home run last night to
reward his new bosses with a
6-5 victory over Portland.
This enabled the third place
Stars to move within five and
a half games of the top as the
Oakland Oaks, who apparently
can't read the standings, con
tinued their assault on league
leading San Diego. The Oaks
won 4-1 las night on Jim Mar
shall's two home runs.
Seattle, now only two games

away from the top rung, took
full advantage, grabbing a 3-1
decision from San Francisco
while Sacramento climbed over
Los Angeles to get out of the
cellar on Johnny Briggs' bril
liant two-hitter.
Vico Hitting
Vico has pinch hit three times
since joining the Stars and has
got three hits, two singles and
last night's homer. Vico went
in to bat for relief hurler Joe
Trimble at the start of the bot
tom of the tenth and he let the
customers go home right away
Earlier the Beavers drove
Roger Bowman out of the box
with four runs in the seventh
to tie the game up. One of the
runs was a homer by Carl Powls.
Marshall clouted a two-run
home run in the first inning and
a solo blast in the third to pro
vide the Oaks with the margin
they needed to keep up their
mastery of the Padres.
Chris Van Cuyk got the win
and Bob Kerrigan the loss al
though the Pads outhit their tor
mentors 8-6.
Good Pitching
Howie Juason tossed a five
hitter at San Francisco to gain
the win. The Rainiers were also
I out-hit 5-4 but bunched three of
! their clouts in the seventh in-
j ning after Maurice Fisher had
i gone six and one-third frames
with a no-hitter.
Briggs got his seventh win of
the season with his two-hitter
and pitched his club out of the
cellar. His mound rival deserved
a better fate.
Hy Cohen hurled a five hitter
and the only run against him
was unearned.
In addition Cohen got the

Hard-Hitting Vandals
Predicted by Stahley
Moscow, Idaho (U.R) Un
iversity of Idaho football Coach
J. Neil (Skip) Stahley yesterday
described his prospective 1955
squad as "eager, for the most
part inexperienced, but still
hard-hitting."
In a letter to university alum
ni Stahley said an "unhealthy
attitude" of pessimism and de
featism "has been changed con
siderably." He added, "I am not being
optimistic over results merely
over attitudes."
But he said later in the letter
the 1955 team "may well be one
you will be proud to call Van
dals before the fall season is
over . . . these lads have a keen
desire to hang onto the winning
streak of four games which con
cluded last season."
only solid hit off Briggs, a sin
gle in the sixth. Gene Mauch's
fourth inning double was the one
that Rufe Crawford lost in the
lights.
Briggs walked only one and,
with the infield giving him dou
ble plays, held the Angels to
one man left on base.
