A couple of dandy pitching jobs by Dave Stenhouse and Art Swanson and a good heavy rain has left Spokane all alone at the top of the Pacific Coast league stand ings.

Sacramento and Portland had been in a three way tie with Spokane for the league leadership going into Monday action, but the defeats, plue the Indians' rainout at Ta coma, left the Washington State team on top of the heap by percentage points. Pitchers Night In the other game, Gary Peters, making It a pitchers night all around, tree a four hitter at Vancouver as San Diego blanked the Mounties, 2-0, to move from fifth place to second. Stenhouse gave up a two run homer to J. W.

Brown obtained Baker, one of the National Football League's outstanding punters, place-kickers and humorists, from the Washington Red skins Monday in return for two linemen. The Redskins received Francis O'Brien, an offensive guard and tackle and Bob Khayat, a offesive guard, from the Brows. Khayat, who played college football for Mississippi, was Cleveland's No. 6 choice in this year's NFL draft. O'Brien, former Michigan State star, was Cleveland's No. 3 choice in 1959. Baker, a witty man who at first refused to learn place- kicking has been with the Redskins since 1953. The for mer Oregon star led the NFL in punting in 1958 and led the Redskins in scoring the last four years. Brown said the fact that Cleveland has acquired Baker did not mean Groza has play ed his last game for the Browns. "This does not mean the end of Lou Groza," Brown said. "Naturally, there will be competition in the place kicking, but Groza still re mains a valuable offensive tackle." the first Inning but after that was nearly untouchnble. In addition, the Seattle lefty, notching his second win again st no defeates, drove in the winning run In the sixth when he singled to Bill Hain. Seattler's first two markers also came in the first inning on a one-on circuit clout by Lou Skizas. Salt Lake called on Swan son after starter Tom Butters got In trouble in the fifth. Swanson worked out of the jam and kept the Beavers un der control the rest of the way. Jim Baumer paced the Bees at the plate, scoring a run after singling In the first inning, and driving in another one with a singleton in the second. Peters was the master all the way against Vancouver, setting the Mounties down with ease as he picked up his first win of the year. San Diego got only three hits off loser Joe Hatten, but they all came in the fifth inning when Padres scored both their runs. J. C. Martin opened the rally with a single, and scored on a triple by Stan Johnson, who later came in himself on another three-bagger by Don Buford.

Back Stairs: No Tension in Augusta Llnesrores: NATIONAL LEAGUE Wilson 805 13 4 Hoover 411 8 1 Atwood and Zimmerly: Cox, Brooks (2) and Cunningham. By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI White House Reporter Washington -lUPD-Backstairs at the White House: When President Eisenhow er spent 11 days recently in Augusta, Ga., some of the Chief Executive's friends were concerned thta Negro lunch counter sit-downs prevalent in other parts of the South might develop in Augusta during the Eisenhower vaca tion and possibly embarrass the President. There was no racial tension whatever evident during the Eisenhower visit, however. ana some local citizens re ported behind-the-scenes con versations that may have been a factor in discouraging dem onstrations, if ever any had been planned. The Masters Golf Tourna ment dominated Augusta life the week before Eisenhower arrived and this annual af fair is a source of sizeable extra income for AuRusta and for Negroes and whites alike, Thousands of visitors flock to town for the tournament. Neutral Agreement According to one story cir culated in Augusta, some local white business men talked over the possible economic disadvantages of anti-segregation demonstrations with lead ers of the Negro community and there was mutual agree ment that nothing should be done during the tournament to risk disturbance. And, so the story goes, the same atti tude continued during the vis it of the President who ar rived in Augusta the day af ter the tournament ended. Of course, this story could be apocryphal but it does demonstrate how over a pe riod oi years, a President, as well as a golf tournament can come to De regarded as a definite economic asset to an area where he visits regu lany tor recreational pur poses. When former President Tru man visited Key West, Fla., in the fall and again in the early spring, the local authorities did their utmost to avoid dis concerting or disturbing local incident that might intrude on the blissful surf-and-sun-shine publicity flooding the nation's newspapers as a re sult of Truman's presence. French President Charles De Gaulle, strolling out of Eisenhower's office at the White House last week follow ing their first meeting, look ed like a mighty glum man. He strode through the White House lobby, staring straight ahead and paying no attention to the correspondents sur rounding him. A Frenchman explained that while De Gaulle is a man of great dignity, his stern atti tude reflected the poor con dition of nis eyesight more than his mood. The French president's vision has been seriously impaired by catar acts which required surgery, and without heavy glasses, he does not see clearly. As a consequence, the tall French president is not en tirely comfortable walking through strange places and among strange people. Eisenhower was worried enough a few years back about the squirrels that dug into his putting green on the south grounds of the White House. He should have look ed out his bedroom window the other foggy morning. The lawn was covered with hun dreds and hundreds of sea gulls and if they ever dis cover the golf green, there'll be trouble.
