Vanderlip Chairman Board of Directors Attest: Thelma Reinning District Clerk opening-game attendance of former years, while 4,115 showed up at San Diego's new westgate park for the Padres' afternoon opener against Phoenix. Over 7,000 fans at tended the night contest with the Giants. Portland eased back into first place in the standings via the percentage column by downing the Solons, 9-5, al though Vancouver, a half game ahead of the Beavers, handed Salt Lake an 8-4 thumping. The Padres took both ends of their day-night double-header with Phoenix, winning the first, 5-3, and the second, 3-1. Spokane edged the Rainiers, 6-5. Losing Grandslammer Although Sacramento's Jim Westlake hit a grand-slam homer in the sixth to give the Solons a temporary 5-4 lead, Portland rallied to push across five runs in the eighth for the victory. The Beavers collected 14 hits off five Solon hurlers to give veteran pitcher Elmer Singleton his third victory of the season. Red Adams was charged with the loss. Sacramento officials said the disappointing attendance was primarily due to the fact that the Solons opened the season in Portland this year rather than in Sacramento as had been done in previous years. They added the western invasion of the Giants had lit tle bearing on the low turn out. At Salt Lake, the Mounties scored three runs in the sec ond frame, four more in the fourth and another in the eighth for their win. South paw Ron Moeller, who gave way to Joe Hatten in the eighth frame, was credited with the victory, his first against one loss. The crowd, although disap pointingly small, was held down because Salt Lake's Derks field is currently under going enlargement. Gorbous Adds Runs Outfielder Glen Gorbous smashed a three-run homer in the fifth at Spokane to pace the Indians to their victory. The home club had 10 hits to the Rainiers' nine. Reliefer Bill George gained the win, his second against no defeats. At San Diego the Padres, al though going hitless over the final six innings, won the first game by scoring three unearn ed runs in the second frame. The Pads had opened the scor ing with a single run in the first. In the second game, Bill Werle gave up only six hits while going all the way for the winners. Larry Raines paced the Padre hitting at tack with a homer in the sec ond and a run-scoring single in the fourth. Dusty Rhodes scored Phoenix' only run when he put one out of the park in the second inning. It was his first homer since re porting to the Arizona club from the San Francisco Giants.

SPORTS Stadium Better Place To Play Than To Watch By GENE BLUDEAU United Press Sports Writer Chicago (IPi Los Angeles Coliseum is a better place to play a baseball game than see one, Manager Bob Scheff ing of the Chicago Cubs said today. "Even with that short left field," he said, "I don't think it's too bad a place to play. Of course, your good hits to left field there are singles, and the outs are home 'runs. The better the hit, the fewer bases." But seeing it, he said, the uncovered seats are far dis tant from the field and all in all, he'd rather play than watch. Scheffing, whose team play ed three games against the Dodgers in the Coliseum last week, wasn't overly critical of the 42-foot screen in the short left field. "After we got 15 runs in that last game.v he said, "I'd liked to have stayed there a month. But they're learning how to play that screen. A ball hits it and it doesn't bounce. It just falls down. The better the hit, the less you get. So the line drives that would go out of any other park just fall. The high er ones take longer to get there and you might get two bases. And of course the 'real long high flies that are outs in other parks are home runs there." Virgil Bewley Heads Shooting Virgil Bewley was top gun ner at Medford Gun club on Sunday, breaking 50 straight at 16-yards and winning the Ed Pease handicap. In the handicap Bewley and Martin Clogston each shat tered 48 birds and each busted 23 out of 25 in the shoot-off. Bewley then won the coin flip.
