P.. the rain-maker, fi nally relented enough in the northwest last night to permit, a full Pacific Coast league sched ule and give the pacesetting Portland and Seattle clubs a chance to fatten their leads over their California rivals. Portland's double victory over Los Angeles moved the Beavers six and a half games ahead of the Rainiers, who whipped San Francisco in the first game of a twin bill and wound up in a 10th inning deadlock in the after piece. I Oakland skidded a game and a half behind Seattle in losing to Sacramento, while San Diego edged to within half a- game of the Acorns by trimming Holly wood. Portland, which like- Seattle has been idle for the last three nights due to rain and travel de lay, trounced the Angels 8-1 and 10-2. Two of the Beavers" most reliable hurlers, Roy Helser and Ad Liska, held the Angels to 6 and 8 hits, respectivly. Helser s victory in the opener was his eighth of the year against two defeats, while submariner Liska notched his seventh against 'three losses in the nightcap. The Rainiers won 1-0 in their seven-frame opener and were knotted 3-3 with the Seals when the regulation second game was called at the end of the 10th in ning due to a league rule that no frame can be started within 10 minutes of midnight. South paw Carl Fischer turned in a classic three-hit hurling job for Seattle in the first tilt. A two run Rainier rally in the night cap's ninth inning knotted the score and produced a no-decision contest. The Beavers will attempt to make up lost time with a 7:30 double bill tonight, while the Rainiers will play a single 8 o'clock game this evening and take on the Seals in a Monday night doubleheader starting at 7:30. Twin engagements are slated in all league parks Sun day. The Acorns lost 9-3 to Sacra mento as Jim Atanazio, a veter an of the Oakland semi-pro win ter circuit, pitched the Solons to a 2-2 series tie. San Diego's 12-4 victory over Hollywood, its third in four games, gave Pitcher Vallie Eaves, Cherokee Indian, his ninth win of the season. Shortscores: First game (seven innings): R. H. E.

RAINIER PLAYER SEATTLE, May 18 r(JP Chet Johnson, southpaw pitcher owned by the St. Louis Browns' but ordered back to a shipyard job here this spring by his draft board, has been turned over to the Seattle Rainiers by the Browns for the rest of the 1945 season, Business Manager Bill Mulligan announced today. He comes on option and reverts to the American league club this ,iau. He was sold to St. Louis by San Diego last winter. I EVERY j Sat. Night 9:00 'til 1:00 I; Armory i; Baldy's Band ji Circuit Hit Puts Browns Nearer Top St. Louis Poundi Heels Of American Loop Leaders, Shows Flashes Of Old Form By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Wrlttr Thanks to Vern Stephens' home run spurt, the St. Louis Browns were closing in on the American league leaders today, showing flashes of the form that won them the 1944 champion ship. Only two games off the pace because of Stephens' seventh round tripper, a grand slam wallop that plastered the New York Yankees, 4-1, Luke Se well's club has won five of seven at home against the east ern invaders. One of the other two was a tie. The slugging shortstop, lead ing the American league with a .369 average and second in runs batted in with 17, has hit four homers in the last six con tests and seven of the eight his team has belted this year. Stephens had plenty of com- Ca n y in yesterday's slugging ees as three major leaguers hit for all four with the sacks loaded. Luis Olmo did the job for the Brooklyn Dodgers in tneir 10-ia shellacking of the Chicago Cubs and old Jimmy Foxx belted his first in three years for the Philadelphia Phils who lost nevertheless to the St. Louis Cardinals, 11-8. Only 24 grand slams were hit last season but nine already nave been recorded in the first month of the current campaign, five in the National and four in the American. Stephens did it twice last year and Buss Derry of the Yanks has two this April. Although the long distance sluggers stole tne snow in the arclight games yesterday, the only day tut was strictly a Ditcher's dream. Dave Ferriss. the Boston Red Sox phenome non, tossed his third shutout in four straight triumphs, blanking Chicago. 2-0. In 36 bie leaeue innings, the army discharge has allowed only two runs. Bob Johnson's double produced the winning scores. Olmo had the biggest night or me season with a four-run homer and a triple that scored three for Brooklyn, boosting his ti a. l. total xrom is to a third place 22. Ben Chapman was the win ner over Jorge Cornelias but neither started nor finished. Olmo's bat was the big thunder Dut hu Kicnolson, Andy Pafko, Bill Hart and Goody Rosen also hit into the stands. Foxx' 529th homer was wast ed in a six-run Philly eighth inning because the Cardinals came back with four in the ninth to win for Ken Burk bardt who gained his third straight relief decision. Jack Kramer got the benefit Proud I Vx " I via Kg) Off on winning streak, cigar-puding manager Jimmy Dyktij is So proud of hi?

War Torn Tennis Needs Long Convalescence, Says Tilden PHILADELPHIA, May 19 (IP) Amateur tennis will need sever al years after the war ends to recover its former international stride, says big Bill Tilden. The 52-year-old former court champion stopped in his native Philadelphia last night for a visit. "There are no young amateur tennis players available because they are all in the armed forces," Tilden said. "So it will take a few years to develop some new youngsters to succeed such wor thy players as Ellsworth Vines and Don Budge," Directing a verbal volley at the U. S. Lawn Tennis associa tion for its refusal to sanction an open tournament, Tilden said, "the only salvation for the game is to stage an 'open' which would help the amateur young sters immeasurably and keep the interest alive." "Professional tennis is in a healthy condition because the good, old players of the moneyed ranks who are in the armed forces will have the advantage of their experience to fall back on after the war," he added. And my, yes", the gray-haired Tilden again pooh-poohed the of Stephen's smash to boost his season mark to 4-1 on the credit side as Hank Borowy lost a tough four-hitter for his first defeat after five victories. Last time Borowy worked at Sports man's park during the Brown ies' successful flag drive, he dropped a two-hitter to Nelson Potter. Although the American league managed to play two games, its first since Sunday, the rest of the calendar, Philadelphia at Cleveland and Washington at Detroit, was postponed. Rain and wet grounds also washed away series openers in the Na tional league between Pitts burgh and New York and Cin cinnati and Boston.
