his right to be called the un

which resulted In a 2-2 tie in
11 innings after darkness forced

By The Associated Press
SEATTLE, 'way down yonder
In the Coast league, and Port
land, rising steadily despite de
termined opposition, currently
are enjoying about the most
profitable scries of the season.
The Beavers, in fourth place,
defeated third place San Diego
8-2 yesterday to make it three
for four over the Padres, and
move them within half a game
of third place. Seattle hit well
behind the four hit pitching of
Syl Johnson to take a 6-1 de
cision over Sacramento in a
twilight game, the third Rainier
win out of four.
Portland took control in the
eighth inning, with a four run
uprising off Charlie Schanz. The
Beavers filled the bases with
two walks and Ted Gullic's sin
gle. Then Rupe Thompson,
pinch hitting for Jack O'Neil,
singled two runs home. A
passed ball let in another, and
Hal Hoffman, newly acquired
Beaver catcher, cracked a single
for the final tally. Sid Cohen
of Portland was ineffective in
the early innings, but gained
control as the game progressed.

San Francisco Seals showed def
inite signs of discouragement as
Los Angeles pushed them aside

Sunday looked much brighter
five losses. The wins included
several shut-outs and a no-hit-

Brooklyn planned to advance
this promising pitcher to Dur
ham N. C, a B league team,
for the present season, however
a prospective V-7 navy call for
July 1 prevented Hanauska
from taking advantage of this
opportunity. Instead he finished
his Junior year at Willamette
and pitched non-conference
games for "Spec" Keene's club.
Manager Frank Ramsey
should be able to put a fairly
good team on the field. For
catching he will have Bart
Goldbar, as well as himself.
Jim Bocchi, promising in his
first season at the game, will
likely handle first base. Tha
balance of the infield will prob
ably be "Scotty" Smith at sec
ond, Romo Crespl at short and
Virgil Gross at third. McKinley
is utility infielder. Hi Hatfield,
Floyd Shipman, Orlo Oakes and
Virgil Horn are available for
outfield duty. Virg Haynes and
Aldo Belloti, who have been
unable to reach proper pitching
shape due to lack of favorable
practice conditions, will be held
in reserve
The Bend Elks are expected
to field the same veteran club
which has four straight victor
ies without a defeat, all by im
pressive scores. Lineup will
probably be: Ackley, rf; Doug-,
lass, 3b; Gordon, ss; Hatch, lb;
Nehl, cf; Roberts, If; Bailey,

either Jim Farmer or Bob
Houtchens as the starting pitch
