Sacramento Beaten
But Boosts Lead in
Pacific Coast Loop
By DON BECKER
United Press International
Looks like Sacramento can't
do anything wrong - even
when it loses.
The Solons were defeated
by Phoenix Thursday night,
5-2, but they increased their
PCL league lead to five games.
Salt Lake handed second
place San Diego a pair of los
ses to account for the unusual
happenings.
Dick Hall, who may be the
best seven-inning pitcher in
baseball, shut out the Padres
in the first game, 5-0, and Jack
Bloomfield socked a lQth in
ning double that gave the Bees
one second contest by a 5-4
score.
In other games, Spokane's
Connie Crob whitewashed
Vancouver, 1-0, and Portland
clipped last place Seattle, 4-1.
Hall's Thud Shutout
Hall's shutout was his third
of the season in seven-inning
games. In regulation scraps,
Hall has failed to win a deci
sion. His record is 3-3.
The lanky righthander gave
up eight hits. Shortstop Dick
Barone, who sparkled afield,
also lead the Bees at the plate
with a homer, his first of. the
season.
In the second game, Gene
Leek, who joined the Padres
from Cleveland just in time,
for the doubleheader, cracked
a two-run homer that gave
San Diego a brief lead in the
second inning. But the Bees
came back and scored their
winning run in the tenth after
relief pitcher Jay Striker
walked two to set the stage for
Bloomfield's smash off the
right field wall.
Phoenix relief on the big
inning again Thursday night.
The Giants scored six runs in
the sixth inning. Jose Pagan
and Bill Wilson belted homers
for Phoenix. Eddie Fisher be
came the first pitcher to reg
ister six wins in the PCL as
he went all the way for the
Giants. The loss ended a five
game winning streak for the
Sacs who got their only two
runs when JBuddy Feterson
belted a two-run homer in the
ninth.
Sacramento's starter, Chuck
Hickman, hurled hitless ball
until Pagan led off the sixth
with his homer.
Indians Tighten Hold on Third
Spokane entrenched itself
in third place on its win over
Vancouver. Grob was in
trouble in only one inning as
he held Vancouver to five hits.
Catcher Norm Sherry hit an
eighth-inning homer to give
Grob his. win. The Indians
were held to one hit by 21-year-old
Chuck Estrada who
worked the first seven innings
for the Mounties. He gave
way to -Bud Watkins in the
eighth because of a bad blis
ter. Watkins was greeted by
Sherry's blast and got the loss.

Tells Plans
To Appeal
New York - JUPD - Middle
weight champion Ray Robin
son planned to take the stand
today at his final hearing, and
publicly challenge Carmen
Basilio to fight.
It was to , be a last-ditch
effort to prevent the New
York State Athletic commis
sion from vacating his title.
'And if they do take my
title, I'll appeal right on
through to the United States
Supreme Court," Robinson
said.
When the hearing was ad
journed last Wednesday, the
commissioners seemed to be
sharpening the axe for an exe
cution today.
They seemed to have found
Robinson guilty of failing to
arrange, by May 15, for a title
defense against ex-champion
Basilio. May 15 was the dead
line set by commission and
court for him to "enter into
articles of agreement" with
Basilio.
On Wednesday the commis
sion ruled that Ray's contract
for a Philadelphia defense
against Basilio, next Sept. 21,
was invalid because only Ray
had "signed. Moreover, the
Philadelphia contract between
Robinson and promoter Sam
Rose depended upon a mys
terious number-two contract
that never was produced at
the hearing. Also a guarantee
of more than $238,000 to Ba
silio had been offered long
after the May 15 deadline.
i Robinson, who hasn't de
fended since he recaptured the
160-pound title from Basilio
14 months ago, was stripped
of his title by the National
Boxing association on May 4.
The independent New York
commission is not a member
of the NBA.
Elkins Case Heard
By Supreme Court
Salem -fflPB-Portland night
light figure James B. Elkins
and three other persons had
cases heard before the Oregon
Supreme Court Thursday on
an appeal made by the state.
The others are Thomas .
Maloney, Spokane and Seat
tle; Joseph P. McLaughlin,
Seattle; and H. E. Ferguson,
Portland.
All four were accused of
running a bootlegging estab
lishment, but Circuit . Judge
James W. Crawford, Port
land, dismissed the grand
jury indictment on grounds it
was not specific.
Attorney General Robert Y.
Thornton then appealed to
the Supreme Court.
The court will issue its
opinion at a later date.

Colored Ghosts Provide
Mirthful Entertainment
Camp White - There wasioff his shoe to revive .the
hilarious entertainment for
softball fans here last night
once the fun began.
The Iowa Colored Ghosts,
traveling clowns of the sport,
playing the Camp White semi
pro baseball nine, were given
little- chance to cut-up during
the first five innings when the
fine pitching of the Whiters'
Vern Collins made a good
game of it.
Final score of the "contest,"
which was coincidental to the
fun, was 3 to 2, favoring the
bornstorming crew.
Collins allowed the Ghosts
only one hit through five in
nings and the score stood 1
to 1. Then Collins' arm tired.
Jack Burns relieved him. The
Ghosts found his offerings
more to their liking, got two
runs in the sixth inning and
intensified their mirthful
show. And, the colored gang
came up with a host of tricks
and antics to tickle the fancy
of the spectators.
Runners on first and second
for the Ghosts ran and ex
changed bases. First base
coach and runner frequently
changed places until nobody
knew who was runner and
who was coach. Then the
Ghosts got a man on third
base. The runner stole toward
home and shook hands with
the umpire while the Camp
White catcher tagged him out.
But it turned out to be the
third base coach who was
tagged and the legal runner
still was safe at third base.
Ghost third baseman and
manager Rip Collins once
batted with a bludgeon that
looked like an oversized beer
bottle. Then Ghost pitcher

all over the stadium.
The barnstormers gave the
plate umpire, John Willis, a
bad time. They covered the
plate with dirt, swiped the
ump's plate broom and drop
ped it when handing to him.
Burns tripled for the home
club in the seventh inning. Rip
Collins shouted that he de
served a home run and led
the Whiter by hand across the
plate.
Two Ghosts laid on the dia
mond simulating boat fishing.
Bats were used for oars. The
boat upset and one man swam
for shore with stream of water
coming from his mouth. The'
other man was overcome and
rescued. A doctor was called

along, blowing it and steering

They played tic-tac-toe in dirt

Two Cars Derailed;
Wreck Spills Wheat
Portland -flJPD- Two freight
cars were derailed and some
5000 bushels of wheat spilled
over the right-of-way Thurs
day night when two freight
trains of the Spokane, Port
land railroad sideswiped
about three miles west of
Linnton at the northwest edge
of Portland.
No one was hurt in the
accident. General Manager N.
S. Westergard said he could
give no immediate reason for
the collision.
A train with 26 freight cars
bound from Forest Grove to
Portland ran into a 50-car
freight train bound f rpm Port
land to Astoria at a junction
along the highway.
About 40 cars of the As
toria train were cut loose
while emergency crews began
clearing the right - of - way.
Only freight traffic was de
layed by the accident since
no passenger service operates
on the line.

No Progress in Steel Contract Talks Reported
New York-(UPD-Negotiators
for the United Steelworkers
of America and the big steel
industry meet again today
with no progress reported as
yet in their efforts to reach
a contract agreement before
a possible June 30 strike.
Industry spokesmen re-emphasized
their opposition to
any wage increase for the
nation's 500,000 steelworkers
Thursday in two public
speeches.
Declines Comment
Union president David J.
McDonald declined to com
ment on fhe speeches made
by Roger M. Blough, chair
man of U.S. Steel, and Clif
ford F. Hood, a U.S. Steel
director, beyond noting that
"they have said nothing dif
ferent from what they have
said before."
Blough spoke before the
National Press Club in Wash
ington. McDonald will address
the same group next Wednes
day. '
Hood, speaking before the
National Industrial Confer
ence Board here, said that
about one-quarter of steel in
dustry production is going
into stockpiles against a pos
sible strike.
Logger Killed
Near Cape Lookout
Tillamook -0IPD-Ernest Otis
Newberg, 48, Sand Lake, was
killed Thursday afternoon in
a logging accident just south
east of Cape Lookout State
Park near here.
Newberg was a log skinner
for the Ray Feazel Logging
company of Netarts. He had
rolled a log from the upper
side of a road and the root
of a windfall tree came loose
and rolled down a hill over
his tractor.
Officials said he was ap
parently trying to get off the
machine when the log struck.
Newberg, who was unmar
ried, died en route to Tilla
mook county hospital.
The mills are producing at
94 per cent of capacity, he
said, but consumption is only
70 to 75 per cent of the pro
duction. Could Be Crucial
The size of the stockpile
could be crucial in the un
