By Tho Associated Press
Old J. 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.

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

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

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.
