Br DON THACKREY
United Press Sports Writer

Seals were only living up to
part of their name in the Pacific
Coast League today.
Before the season the Seals
now a farm club for the Boston
Red Sox were touted as being
dangerous. But the only danger
they exhibit so far is to the Van
couver Mounties they may fall
atop them at the bottom of the
standings.
The Seals lost to Sea'tle 3-1
last night to fall within a half
game of 7th place Hollywood.
The Stars moved up on the
Seals with a pair of wins over
the Mounties, 9-2 and 6-2.
Sacramento outpowered the
Los Angeles Angels 8-2 and San
Diego outblasted Portland 8-7.
Bud Podbielan held San Fran
cisco to seven hits and out
pitched four Seal hurlers to give
the Angel-chasing Suds a .3-1
edge in the series. Three early
runs made it easy for Podbielan,

T-C Braves
Gain Ground
In NW Loop
By UNITED PRESS
The Northwest League stand
ings got some shaking up last
night for the first time in several
days.
Yakima still held the lead, in
fact increased it to four and one
half games by knocking over
Salem, 6-0, for the Bears' sixth
straight win. But Tri-City is the
new third-place stockholder, and
Lewiston is but six percentage
points ahead, in second place..
Tri-City earned its new rating
by bouncing Spokane, 15-8 in a
game that featured no less than
36 base hits. Lewiston was vic
timized by the visiting Wenat
chee Chiefs, 12-3, and the Chiefs
moved into fifth place, four
points behind the idle Eugene
Emeralds.
Everybody changes partners
tonight. Lewiston goes to Spo
kane, Eugene resumes action at
Yakima and Salem will be at
Kennewick to meet the Braves.
Wenatchee sits out this series.
Tempers Flare
The Yakima-Salem contest
again saw tempers flare, for the
second straight night. But after
the brief second inning rhubarb,
the loop leaders, behind Arleigh
Downs' five-hit pitching grabbed
two runs in the fifth and four
more in the ninth inning to keep
their win streak alive.
Tri-City scored in all but the
first, seventh and eighth inn
ings after Spokane had taken a
short-lived 2-0 lead in the first
frame. George Huffman got five
for five at the plate for the win
ners. At Lewiston, Bob Duretto was
the major spoiler, clouting two
home runs good for five of the
six tallies he drove in. Glenn Is
ringhouse was the winning
hurler.
