Seals Jubilant, Lose Finals; Posedel Pitches for Portland Br JIM HEALY United Press Sports Writer The jubilant San Francisco Seals, having won what possibly is the last of 55 Pacific Coast league pennants, finished the season with a flourish Sunday by happily dropping their last two games to Sacramento, 3-4 and 14-7. The first game, played with more or less seriousness, was taken by the Solons in the ninth when pinchhitter Len Neal clout ed a two-run homer to put the visitors ahead by one game-winning run. However, the second contest was little more than an exercise In gymnastics. Outfielder Albie Pearson started on the mound and gave up three runs. Manager Joe Gordon yanked Pearson off and went in himself and gave up three more tallies. Even Umpire Chris Pelekoudas found himself on the mound flicking baseballs at Solon batters. Sched uled starter Bill Prout finally managed to play in the second, but. Pearson was charged with the loss. Things reached a peak of absurdity when Gordon sin gled and Solon Manager Tommy Heath tumbled out of the dugout and pinch-ran for him. Gordon shook his hand when Heath crossed the plate for a Seal run. In the other, more earnest games, San Diego clobbered Los Angeles twice, 9-4 and 5-1. Holly wood edged Portland 9-8. Se attle took the first game 8-5 in 12 innings from Vancouver, but the nightcap was called at the end of seven with the score tied 2-2. There will be no replay of the contest. The games in Los Angeles went on despite a telephone warning of a bomb In one of the dugouts. No bombs were found by police. In the first, Floyd Robinson, Bobby Dolan and Rudy Regalado homered for the Padres while Jim Grant went the distance for his 18th win against seven losses. The night cap was a one-sided affair with the Padres collecting four runs In the third frame. Tom Saffell got the Angels' only tally with his bases-empty homer in the fourth. Hollywood took the edge off Portland, but fought every inch of the way. The first game, an 11 inning contest, went to Holly wood reliefer Chuck Churn as the Stars worked their way through four Portland hurlers. Frank Carswell homered for the losers while starting pitcher Bob Garber, Bill Causion and Paul Pettit hit round-trippers for the winners. The second game was all Hollywood until the last frame. The Stars had racked up a 5-0 lead going into the bottom of the seventh when Ed Winceniak clouted a two run homer. His teammates added two more be fore winner Don Rowe could douse the fire. The starter, and loser, for the Bevos was man ager Bill Posedel. The Seattle-Vancouver double header was not thrown off stride by clowning team members, since the Rainiers were fighting vain ly for fourth place. Spider Jor gensen and Jim Marshall horn ered to give the Mounties all their runs up to the 12th. How ever, the game winner came off the bat of Seattle's Jim Dyck who blasted one out of the park with two men on. His teammates added two and Vancouver got two more, but Dyck's hit decid ed things. The Mounties almost copped the second game, but Kal Segrist was called out at home on a close play in the sixth to end the drive for that frame. The fans threw pop bottles, cushions and anything they could lay their hands on at Umpire Bob St. Clair. They stopped, though, when told the game could be forfeited to the Rainiers. And that ends the Pacific Coast league, at least for this season, and possibly for all time. I.INESCORES: Sacramento 5 9 1 San Francisco 4 12 0 Bowman. Coen 4.

' - SPORTS Redbirds Place Ticket Orders, 'Just in Case' St. Louis (W Pennant fever, a September ailment this city es caped for many years, reached epidemic' proportions today. The hard-charging St. Louis Cardinals, who had difficulty finding anyone outside their own clubhouse who thought they had a chance for the flag a week ago, won converts to their view with red-hot bats and fine pitching. Sunday, 24,577 fans braved threatening skies to watch the Cards sweep a double-header with the Pirates to forge within 2V4 games of Milwaukee. They yelled themselves hoarse as Stan Musial returned to ac tion and delivered a key hit in the first game and a pair of dou bles in the second. The Redbirds front office said orders had been placed with the printers for World Series tickets "just in case." Is That So? Highlands Inn, Carmel, Calif. What an international world we live in! Here at this charm ing inn, with the blue Pacific framed between gnarled pines, I visited with guests from Mexi co, Lebanon, Germany, Japan and Egypt. But the true impact of the world was conveyed even more when my host, Fritz Har- tung, told me from where my dinner came. To begin with, Fritz, who is of German back ground, told me that the chef is Hungarian, his assistant a Fili pino. First I was served with a rum cocktail mixed by a Hawaiian. It was made of Negrita rum a blend of two hemispheres, Martinique in our West Indies and mountainous Reunion is land, 400 miles east of Madagas car in the Indian Ocean. The limes came from Mexico; the sugar from Hawaii. In the relish basket were hot peppers from Mexico, celery from Utah; olives from Italy; radishes and carrots from the Imperial valley. The cracker basket contained wheat wafers from our Middle western states and imported Swedish rye crackers. The fruit cocktail contained the following: pineapple from Hawaii, oranges from southern California; peaches from Ore gon; apples from Washington; watermelon from the Imperial valley, and the whole salad doused in Curacao from the Dutch West Indies. Argentina Mushrooms This was followed by cream of mushroom soup the dried mushrooms came from Argen tina because as Fritz Hartung says: "Formerly I used Japan ese dried mushrooms but I think these from the Argentine are better. They have more of that wild mushroom tang." Next came the fish course and this was baby shrimps new- berg. The shrimps came from Alaska. The cream-sherry cause laced several countries together sherry from Napa county in northern California; butter from nearby dairies; and herbs well, pepper from the Indies, salt from Hayward, Calif., dried herbs such as Oregano from Italy. The steamed rice in which the tiny shrimp were bedded came from the Sacramento valley. The main course, steak, came straight from the Kansas City stockyards. The baked potato from Idaho. The cheese for the potato dressing from Tillamook, Ore. Artichoke buttons from Castroville. . Horse radish from the Salinas valley. And for those who might use a steak sauce, it originated in England and con tained soy from Japan, anchov ies from Norway, eschalots from France, onions from Holland, tamarind from India, garlic from France, and spices from the In dies. Wisconsin Cheese The salad pure and simple was lettuce from Salinas; tomatoes from the Imperial val ley. The roquefort blue cheese for the dressing came from Wis consin, the wine vinegar from northern Calif., the olive oil from Italy. The red dinner wine originat ed from the nearby Santa Cruz mountains. The dessert, Hawaiian parfait which Fritz himself invented, consisted of a pineapple sherbet with Hawaiian pineapples float ed atop a banana liquer which came from the Dutch West In dies. After this we lingered, under standably, over our coffee a special blend, of which the mo cha came from a coastal port of that name in Yemen at the southwestern tip of the Arabic peninsula, and,' the other half, Quarterback Traded for Draft Choice Hersey, Pa. OP) The Phila delphia Eagles, aching for depth at quarterback, acquired signal caller Al Dorow from the Wash ington Redskins today in ex change for a future draft selec tion.

Vince McNally, Eagles' gener al manager, said Dorow would join the Eagles here and accom pany them when they leave Thursday for two exhibiton games on the West coast.

The after-dinner drink was Drambuie, a scotch-type liquer made of scotch and blended with honey of which there is a good amount in Scotland and numer ous herbs from the continent. When I complimented my host upon the wonderful many landed repast and assured him we would be returning to his Highlands Inn many times to enjoy his cuisine, he responded by handing me a cigar.

A title game on the first big Saturday of the season? Sounds silly, but it isn't, be cause defending national cham pion Oklahoma will be visiting Pittsburgh in a clash that many experts are saying will be the toughest of the year for Coach Bud Wilkinson's souped-up Soon ers. If Oklahoma can add this game to its record string of 40 vic tories, it then will swing into a schedule almost exclusively against the Big Eight, formerly Big Seven competition it has murdered 59 consecutive times. If the Sooners drop this one, it could turn out to be their only loss of the year and the one that costs them their crown. Despite the graduation of seven starters, Olahoma is fig ured to have another power house sparked by free-wheeling back Clendon Thomas. But if the new starters haven't quite got into the swing, Pitt could McEntire Rides to Win At Pendleton Round-Up Pendleton OP) Clark Mc Entire, 29, of Kiowa, Okla., won the Pendleton Round-Up cowboy championship Saturday, taking top honors in steer roping com petition, and scoring high in the calf roping division.
