Beavers Rap Twinks 9-2,
5-1; Suds Win 9 in Row
By DON THACKREY
United Press Sports Writer
The San Diego Padres still had
their one-game Pacific Coast
League lead today only because
they had presence of mind
enough to win both ends of yes
terday's doubleheader.
The Pads gained a measure of
revenge on Lefty O'Doul by belt
ing his charges, the Oakland
Oaks, twice 7-2 and then 3-1.
And while the Padres were
having all this fun the foaming
Seattle Rainiers made it nine
straight by sweeping a double-
header and a series from San
Francisco. The Sunday scores
were 7-3 and 6-1.
Third place Portland also en-
Orioles Obtain
Texas Baseballer
Baltimore (U.R) Paul Rich
ards, who says the Baltimore
Orioles are ready to out-bid all
other clubs in the bonus market,
signed three youngsters at a
clip today and described one of
them as "the greatest thing since
the invention of the round
wheel."
Object of Richards' praise was
first baseman - pitcher Robert
Sydney Nelson, 18-year-old bat
ting and hurling "phenom" from
Dallas.
"Of all the bonus players we
signed this season, Nelson is the
one we wanted most," Richards
said. "Every club in the majors
was interested in him but we
made up our minds to get him
and we did."
Modest Bonus
Nelson, signed for a "modest
bonus" estimated around $20,
000, immediately was placed on
the Baltimore roster along with
22-year-old catcher Tommy Gas
tall, former Boston University
baseball and football star, who
was given an estimated $15,000
bonus by the Orioles.
The third youngster signed
was William Lajoie, a 20-year-
old centerfielder from Western
Michigan College, who received
(ess than $4,000 and was assign
ed to the Orioles' San Antonio
farm club in the Texas League.
Poirier Faces
Pita Tonight
New York U.R) Two
young welterweight sluggers
will match explosives tonight in
the television fight between
Gene Poirier of Niagara Falls,
N.Y., and unbeaten Oscar Pita of
Argentina at St. Nicholas Arena.
Wagering on their 10-rounder
is "even money."
Poirier, who looks and fights
like ex-middleweight champion
Tony Zale, is seeking his fourth
straight knockout. He was very
impressive in his last bout on
May 30, when he belted out the
more experienced Miguel Diaz
in the fourth round.
Pita, 21, will be seeking his
42nd consecutive professional
victory in his second U.S. appear
ance. The welterweight cham
pion of Argentina outpointed
Freddy Monforte at Brockton,
Mass., on April 25.

Eugene Has
Lead in NWL
By UNITED PRESS
The Wenatchee Chiefs were
tumbled from the top of the
Northwest League standings dur
ing the week end. Looking down
on the circuit's six other teams
today was Eugene, but the Emer
alds owed some thanks to the
lowly Spokane Indians for their
lofty position.
Spokane spotted visiting Wen
atchee four runs in the third
inning of their game Sunday
night, then fought an uphill bat
tle all the way to tie the game
with three runs in the ninth. Joe
Porter singled home his third
run of the game in the 10th to
give the Indians a well-earned
9-8 victory, their third in four
games with the Chiefs. Spokane
won its first series of the season,
by the way.
Eugene, meanwhile, had to
come from behind to get a split
with Yakima in the nightcap of
the doubleheader in the Oregon
city. Triples by Granny Glad'
stone and Cliff Dapper proved
the big blows for the Emeralds
6-5 win in the nightcap. Des
Charous singled home Sam
Mitchell and Bob Nard to give
Yakima the seven-inning opener
2-1.
Sunday's other game was at
Tri-City where he visiting Lew-
iston Broncs made themselves
unwanted guests by the same 5-3
score they used in setting down
the Braves Saturday night.
In the other Saturday games,
Wenatchee split a pair with Spo
kane, winning 17-9, losing 1-7;
and Eugene edged Yakima, 4-3.

FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT BLITZ WEINHARD
The cold air in Blitz Weinhard's fermenta
tion, storage and finishing cellars is the
freshest, purest air possible. It has been run
through a preeipitron, an electrical device
that removes all dust and other air-borne
particles.
Blitz has just installed a new tile yeast

In Portland's big Blitz brewery, as in any housewife's
kitchen, refrigeration facilities are mighty important.
Take the natural process of fermentation, for example,
which happens after near-boiling mash extract is rapidly
cooled to precisely 48F. Or the aging and finishing
of Blitz beer in spotless, freezing-cold cellars filled with
glass-lined steel tanks, each big enough to hold more
than 18,000 gallons.
And, like the "vegetable crisper" in a modern refrigerator.
Blitz Weinhard's hop storage room is cooled and
humidified to the exact point known to be best
for holding the delicate flavors of choicest hops.
It's Dr. Max Zimmermann, Blitz brewmaster and
world-renowned beer-making authority, who watches
over the temperature in all parts of the brewery. He knows
that carefully-controlled refrigeration is one of many
factors behind the light, clean beer taste you prefer.
Here's another reason why, for beer that always tastes best
