IMS Six Squads Battle For Second Spot Beavera Hold Comfortable Mergin For First Fleet, Seattle Top Bertie Royal Br The Associatei Ptm Pacific coast lea toe compett tlon enters its second quarter to night with roruanq nemm.. comfortable 6-game lead, while fighting for second place are six clubs separated only by four games. This week's play should help unscramble the runner-up battle-royal. Here's -the margin separating the second to seventh spot teams: Seattle in second six games off the pace; Oakland in third a game behind the Rai niers; San Diego in fourth trail ing the Acorns a game and a half;' Los Angeles and Sacra mento in a virtual tie for fifth a game away from San Diego; and San Francisco in seventh a half game behind the Angels and Solons and four full games out of second place. Manager Marv Owen's Beav ers will open their second home stand Wednesday against the up-and-coming Los Angeles Angels, who moved to the top of the second division by shading Oak land four out of seven last week. Seattle will entertain the in-and-out San Francisco Seals who fattened their averages with a 5-1 series margin over Hollywood's falling Stars. The series opens with a doublebill tomorrow night. San Diego's Padres, who held second place for a single day last week and then were over whelmed 5-2 in their series with Portland, will have the best chance to improve their posi tion. They travel to Hollywood for a week in the film capital. Oakland, which had trouble with the Angels in its last series, will attempt to recoup with seven home games against' the Sacramento Solons who dropped four out of five to the Bainiers.

He reports as follows: "I found out that the Ameri cans are not the best GI boxers; the Italians over there in Bari, Italy, really are the best. They beat the Americans, British, New Zealanders, Russians and Frenchmen every time they meet. They are always in per feet condition and have very good instructors; the Americans do not want to train tor tignts; the British boxers just can't fight; the New Zealanders can fight but do not have any in structors to teach them; the Rus sians are very clumsy and easy to hit; the Frenchmen fight like they are beginners." ... In sup port of this opinion, Sgt. La combe adds that a 14-year-old, 120-pound Italian kid named Angelo Colianni, can lick the American and British feather weights and most of the light weights in Italy. MORE COMPARISONS In Italy, Sgt. Lacombe en countered a Louisiana neighbor, Johnny Ebarb, who boxed Louis and Billy Conn there. . . . Ebarb claims that if those two tangle again for the title, Joe will be able to stop Billy whenever he feels like it. . . . Louis, he says, still has plenty on the ball while Conn has slipped considerably and lost a lot of speed.

Hitting a trifling -119 when the flock first struck gold, the 1944 National league batting champ has lifted his season mark to .315 and socked the apple at a .471 clip in the last nine con tests.

Tak ing the hill for Cincinnati against the Phillies, the discharged serv iceman earned win No. 1 but had to eive way to Walter Beck because of wildness in the eighth. The Reds won 5 to 4. Boston and St. Louis were not scheduled, moving up their game to make a doubleheader tomor row, and the entire American 'slate of four games, including a night tilt in St. Louis, was washed into future twin bills.

SUGAR DIRTIED ' PHILADELPHIA, May 15 UV) Jose Basora, the Puerto Rican senor from" San Juan, threw a lot of dirt on Ray "Sugar" Rob inson's fistic reputation last night. A 7 to 1 underdog he held the "uncrowned" welterweight champion from New York to a 10-round draw and but for a switch of tactics in the las't round probably would have gained the decision.
