A lot of team standings in
the Pacific Coast league were
affected last night when Al Mc
Elreath, Sacramento left field
er, committed a mental miscue
that turned his team's certain
victory into ultimate defeat by
the Hollywood Stars, 7-3.
Hollywood's triumph In 'the
14th Inning put the htars m a
tie for third position with Port
land, which defeated Oakland
4-3, and left Oakland, Los An
geles and Seattle tied for fifth.
Had the run counted Portland
would have been i-i third place,
Oakland, Los Angeles and Se
attle tied for fourth and Holly
wood in seventh.
San Diego took a tighter hold
on second with a 5-4 win over
first place San Francisco.
Sacramento and Hollywood
were tied at 5-all with the bases
loaded in the last half of the
ninth when Jake Suylar. Solon
first sacker, hit to the left field
fence. McElreath. however,
stopped midway between first
and second bases and left the
field without touching second.
The ball was relayed to second,
forcing McElreath out and nulli
fying the hit and run.
Portland, trailing as the two
teams entered the seventh Inn
ing, knotted the count as Ted
Gullic doubled and scored on
Pieretti's single. The winning
eighth inning tally came when
Larry Barton lifted out a triple
to right field and came home
on Norman Deweese's single.
Seattle and Los Angeles, idle

Good Fishing
Promised for
Holidays
By SCOTT REED
Fishing prospects for the
Fourth of July holidays are
cry good, according to reports
from the local sporting goods
stores. The biggest problem is
getting the git to get to where
the fish are biting.
The lakes seem to still be the
best bet, although not much
has been heard from the
streams and they might be just
squirming with fish with no
body wanting to tell about his
luck. ,
Fishing conditions In general
are about a month ahead ol
normal because of the lack of
precipitation. Usually streams
aren't as low as they are now
until about the end of July.
Diamond lake is reported
very good, and has been con
sistently good all year and evi
dently it is going to continue
to be so. Nice catches are being
taken from Fish lake and also
from Butte creek, which runs
out of Fish lake.
Lake o' the Woods is also
good. Taking everything into
consideration. If ye angler has
the gas he shouldn't have much
trouble catching the elusive
fish during the holidays. ,
During World War I the Unlt
ed States trained 30.000 pilots at
an averago cost of $10,000 each.

You're a
CITIZEN SOLDIER
when you do Red Cross Work
S VJiff if '" ' v."?T"
Almost a billion surgical dressings were made for the
'Army by American Red Cross volunteer workers in 1943, and War
Department quotas call for more in 1944. Commercial manufactur
ing facilities and manpower are entirely inadequate to supply dress
ings in the vast quantities required during wartime, so this is one
of the most vital of the many essential Red Cross services.
The Red Cross needs alt the help that all of ta can give. YOU
are needed, as a production, motor corps, canteen or hospital and
recreation worker; as a staff assistant, dietitian's aide, nurse's aide
or home nurse trainee.
Red Cross tasks include some of the most important Citizen
Soldier activities, but there are many more . . . more than enough
for all of us to have a proud part in speeding victory, and in reduc
ing war's terrible Cost. If you are not already doing all you can,
choose your service and enroll today, as a Citizen Soldief.
