Sergeant Joe Muscato of Buf falo, N.

Bob Pastor started Lem's de cline by knocking him out in the eighth round here several months ago, and gigantic Harry Bobo followed suit at Pittsburgh by eliminating Franklin in the first stanza.

The Brooklyn Dodgers have erased virtually all question ol their retaining the National league pennant, but they are giving their fans something to ponder in the way of batting and most valuable player honors.

By The Associated Press " A fumbled grounder set the stage for a final effort by San Diego to win last night's Coast league baseball game with Port land and the Padres cashed in for a 6-5 victory. The Beavers led by one run going into the ninth and had two men out when Al Wright, second baseman, fumbled a grounder that ' would have ended the inning and set the stage for the next play. With two men on base, John Hill singled to drive in two runs and win the game. Portland took an early lead and Ted Norbert, Beaver out fielder, belted a homer in the eighth to break a four-to-four tie which the Padres earned in the sixth. Sam Gibson, 42-year-old pitch er for the San Francisco Seals, is setting an examp' for Pacific Coast league hurlers this season. Gibson displayed his crafty wares last night as he worked over Oakland batters for a five hitter that gave the Seals a 4 to 2 win and halted a four-game losing streak. : . Gibson is enjoying a comeback after two bad seasons and he at tributed his success to the re moval of an abcessed wisdom tooth and to conservative hurl ing. , , . ; ' Last night was Gibson's 13th start this season and he showed he could baffle the willow wavers without exerting himself to throw em fast. At Los Angeles, the Angels, showed off their league-leading batting pace by cracking out three home runs to defeat Holly wood, 8 to 6. Frank ("Peanuts") Lowry who had gone hitless in his 10 previ ous times at bat, poled out one of the four-baggers in the sev enth with two men on bases. Ed die Waitkus and Johnny Moore collected the other two homers in a third-inning rally. A postponement kept the league-leading Sacramento So lons idle at Seattle, but a dou bleheader is set for tonight to make up for the unplayed game. Eugene Will Meet Salem for State Title' EUGENE.

But the records would seem to show that Laughing Larry French is just about as valuable as any other one man on the Dodgers. He stepped into the breach again last night in a re lief role to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-2 for his sixth triumph without a' defeat this year. The New York Yankees came out of their slump by nosing out the St. Louis Browns 6-5 with a 14-hit barrage including three safeties by Joe Gordon and a like number by Joe DiMaggio. The Browns succeeded in belting Atley Donald off the mound with & three-run uprising in the eighth, but it was insufficient. The Boston Red Sox smashed the Detroit Tigers into submis sion 6-2 with Oscar Judd scatter ing eight hits and himself getting one of Boston's three home runs. Ted Williams hit one, his 16th of the season, and Jim Tabor the other. The Cleveland ndians also col lected three homers tn overpow ering the Philadelphia Athletics 7-5. The Tribe's roundtrippers were by Oris Hockett, Les Flem ing and Ken Kcltner. . The Cincinnati Reds,, who had won 13 of their last 1? games and were hopeful of getting with in sight of the' Dodgers during their eastern invasion, were rude ly shut out by the New York Giants, 7-0, as Bill Lohrman pitched a four-hitter. The Chicago Cubs captured a free-hitting affair from the Philadelphia Phils, 8-4, although outhit, 13-12. The big blow in the Bruins' assault was a three run homer by Lou Novikoff.'

City Recreation officer said the original plan was altered be cause darkness has hampered the second game and evening chill has driven away spectators. Tonight's card finds Big Lakes Box, with a 50-50 record in two games, tangling with Kalpine, leading with two victories and no defeats. Friday night Finnigan's high school boys, with a record of no victories and two beatings, face Knights of Columbus, which has won one and dropped one.

Earl Stewart Dominates Field In College Golf SOUTH BEND, Ind., June 24 W) With the field sifted down to 64 of the top college golfers, the national intercollegiate tour nament today entered daily 36 hole tests- of match play from which the champion will emerge Saturday after 180 holes of com petition. Poised against the field was Earl Stewart of Louisiana State university,- last year's winner, medalist and driving champion. Again the 20-ycar-old Dallas, Tex., player, who plans to enlist in the army shortly, is dom inating the meet. He failed to win the driving crown, but yesterday he shot a 70 one under par over the Chain o' Lakes course for a qual ifying total of 141 a stroke bet ter than his 1941 medalist rec ord. Because as defending titlist he did not need to qualify, Stewart passed the medalist honors to Dick Haskell of Northwestern. r A GRAND OLD CANADIAN WHISKEY NAME II SPECIALLv I, . 12,20 irn ' I t PROOF nka ral.

Pepper Martin Quits Worryingj He's on Top Wild Horse of Osage Says He Has . Good Ball Club and Beginning to Show ' By JIM HUTCHESON ' SEATTLE, June 24 (P) Pepper ' Martin, having shed his baby teeth as a class AA league baseball manager, has learned to quit worrying and his Sacramento ball club is up there on top again. , It's no novelty for the pepper box's team to lead the Pacific Coast league. It had a 15-game margin over the field In mid season last year, the first for the former St. Louis Cardinal star as a manager. Then, long before the year of the big rubber short age, the Sacs lost their bounce. : They collapsed in the stretch to finish behind Seattle. "I Worried all the time last year," drawled the one-time wild hoss of the Osage, on his first 1942 appearance in the town that beat him out of the 1941 pennant. "Even when my team was on top, I'll bet I wor ried more than the rest of the managers together. ' "But this year it's different. We got off to a terrible start. We couldn't hit and we were do ing everything wrong. But while we were way down there in the standings (and Sacramento scrap ed the bottom) I never worried. I knew we had a good ball club, a good fighting ball club, and now it's beginning to show."

But McDonald had other . plans, sidestepped tho wild-swinging Canadian who missed his aim, hurled tho big Indian to tho canvas and pinned him with a body press for tho first fall in less than 10 seconds after the bout began, Thtuulerblrd evened things up with a fall of his own, and then tho fireworks really begun. Sock eye threw tho chief toward tho ropes, kicked him through and mixed things up In tho first two rows of riiigiitfu spectators, a few of whom Joined in the festiv ities. McDonald grasped a chuir and was in the act of flooring his opponent with it when a fun wrenched it from him. Finally Referee Earl Yonkley mnnaged to get the two back with tho roped arena. Tho scowling Intlinn soon saw his opportunity to apply a Boston crab and was in tho act of applying the punishing hold when. It backfired and resulted in his downfall. Sockeye Jack's powerful legs straightened to send Thunderbird sailing through tho ropes onto the floor. When he came back he fell easy prey to a body press which gave the match to the Seattle woods man. . Thunderbird wasn't satisfied.
