Move Hearer PCL Top, 3-2
Portland (U.R) The Port
land Beavers' Red Adams pitch
ed a oneshit one night stand
against San Diego last night t8
down the Padres 4-1 in a Pacific
Coast league make-up St a rain
ed out game.
Adams pitched perfect ball un
til the eighth inning and struck
out six and walked one for an
11-10 record. Losing Padre Bill
Thomason evened his record at
4 and 4.
The Beavers jumped to a 2-0
lead in the first inning. Four
Beaver batters found Thomason's
range as Carl Powis, Dick Whit
man, Eddie Mickelson and Jim
my Robertson all singled to add
up the two counters.
Smashes 5th Homer
Robertson connected again in
the fourth, smashing his fifth
home run of the season over the
back wall to make it 3-0. An
other Beaver run came in the
seventh on a single by Powis and
a sacrifice by Whitman.
The Padres drew a blank until
the eighth inning when Adams,
who. had faced 21 men in the
first seven inhings, finally al
lowed -a walk to Ray Jablonski
Earl Rapp then drew the first
Padre blood by knocking his
29th homer of the season over
the right field fence and out of
sight.
In another game of some im
portance in the. league Holly
wood downed Los Angeles 3-2
and moved into a virtual tie with
Seattle for the loop lead. The
Stars now trail, the Rainiers by
a single percentage point.
Hollywood scored two runs in
the sixth frame to take the win
from Los Angeles with Red Mun
ger racking up his 21st win-
highest in the league.

Win Two
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sporti Writer
Ted Kluszewski'g admittedly
the "big poison" of the Cincin
nati Redlegs' lineup, but Wally
Post just as certainly rate the
title of "little poison."
In fact, the 26-year-old out
fielder from St. Wendelin, O.,
has been out-homering Kluszew
ski for the last month and may
wind up beating out his more
publicized teammate. Post boost
ed his home run total to 34 when
he blasted two off Robin Roberts
Monday night to give the Red-
legs a 4-3 victory over the Phil
adelphia Phillies.
Roberts Blows Lead
The Phillies, striving desper
ately to finish second for the
best showing since their pennant-
winning 1950 campaign, pre
sented Roberts with an early 3-0
lead but he yielded four homers
in all to suffer his 10th loss. He
was gunning for his sixth
straight win and 22nd of the sea
son. Smoky Burgess and Post
broke Robin's shutout spell with
back-to-back homers in the sixth
inning and pinch-hitter Hobie
Landrith tied the score at 3-3
with his fourth homer of the
year in the eighth. That set the
stage for Post's game-winning
wallop in the ninth.
A total of 13 homers were hit
by the National League's slug
gers Monday.
The Brooklyn Dodgers blasted
out three homers in routing the
St. Louis Cardinals, 10-4, while
the Chicago Cubs hit four round
trippers in beating the New York
Giants, 6-3. Pittsburgh and Mil
waukee were idle.
39 For Snider
Roy Campanella hit his 30th
homer, Duke Snider No. 39 and
Carl Furillo No. 23 to lead
Brooklyn's nine-hit attack and
pave the way for southpaw
Johnny Podres to even his rec
ord at 9-9.
Harry' Chiti hit two. homers
and Gene Baker and Dee Fondy
one each as the Cubs bombarded
four Giant pitchers for 14 hits.
Warren Hacker went the route
f oi his 11th win while Jim Hearn
suffered his 13th' loss compared
to 14 victories.
In the American League, the
four contenders were idle and
the Baltimore Orioles made the
most of the all-but-empty stage
by sweeping a double-header
from the Detroit Tigers, 6-0 and
4-3. Erv Palica pitched a five-
hitter for his fifth win in the
opener and Ray Moore picked
up his seventh victory in relief
in the nightcap.

at Golden Gate June 24, 1950.
Rex Ellsworth, Swaps' owner,
said he would have "about a
dozen words of instruction" for
jockey Willie Shoemaker, while
Fitzsimmons figured on little
more in his last pre-race conver
sation with Eddie Arcaro.
Observers believed that Swaps
would be let out to set the early
pace and defy Nashua to catch
him. Then it would be Arcaro's
problem to rate his horse close
enough to the front-runner to
pull ahead in the final sixteenth
The winner of the race was
expected to be acclaimed both
as three-year-old of the year and
horse of the year. Swaps has
been unbeaten in eight three-year-old
starts and Nashua has
won eight of nine starts, losing
only to Swaps in the Kentucky
Derby.
In comparative times for the
mile and a quarter distance,
Swaps had the edge. He won the
Kentucky Derby in 2:01 4-5 May
7 and captured the Hollywood
July 9 in 2:00 3-5, while Nash
ua's best time for the route has
been 2:03 4-5 at Aqueduct July

Portland-J(U.R) HarrS .Glick
man, local sports promoter, ye
terday said a poll conducted fal
lowing the Los Angeles Rams
New York Giants professional
football game showed officials
and coaches evenly divided as to
the merits of tie-breaking play
offs. The two squads had tied at 17
17 at the end of regulation play,
but, under an agreement reached
prior to the game, extended the
contest until one team or tbA
other scored. The Rams scored
a touchdown after 11 minutes to
win the game.
Glickman said members of the
Giant team left they would find
it hard to get used to the idea of
playing 'past the final gun. Giant
players also felt the team win
ning the toss held too great an
advantage.
The Rams, on the other hand,
were-in favor of the innovation,
Los Angeles officials had been .
asking for the rule change for
some time in advance of the con-
test. O
Another innovation tried dur
ing the Sunday night contest
was numbering the yardlines
from 0-100, instead of the con
ventional 0-50-0. Sports writers
and fans favored thnew sys
tem, while coaches and officials
were evenly divided.
