Tonight at the armory, sports
lovers of Klamath Falls will be

Promoter Mack Lillard with
three rassling bouts on tap and,

The fistic battle will be a
four-round bout between Ma

Portland Holds 1 V'a-Game
Lead Over Nearest Rival;
5 Clubs Bunched For Third
Bv PAUL WELLS
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Seattle s Kamiers, wno tnrce
times in less than three weeks
have been within half a khiiio
of first place in the Pacific Coast
league, have failed again to get
over the hump against Portland.
The top-spot Beavers beat off
the challenge of their northwest
rivals 9-3 lust night and evened
their crucial series at one-all.
The Beavers now hold a game
and a half lead.
But an even hotter race has
developed for third place. San
Francisco went into a tie with
Oakland for that position by
beating the Acorns 8-2, while
only half a notch behind are
San Diego, Sacramento and Los
Angeles.
Padres Whip Solons
The Padres took their third in
a row from the Solons 5-3, and
the Angels banged out ' an 8-1
decision over Hollywood, giving
San Diego a .487 percentage rat
ing, and Sacramento and Los
Angeles .486 for a virtual fifth
place tie.
Two home runs sparked Port
land's assault against three Seat
tle pitchers. Catcher Eddie Ad
ams' circuit clout in the fourth
with the bases loaded drove Carl
Fischer from the mound. The
Beavers got another run in the
fifth off Johnny Orphal and tot
lowed with two each in the
7th and 8th against Byron
Speece. The winners' two tallies
in the seventh came on First
Baseman Larry Barton s round
tripper with one man aboard.
Southpaw Syd Cohen scattered
nine Seattle hits, good for one
run in the third and two in the
seventh.
Twin BUI Tonight
The two teams will meet in
a twin bill starting at 7:30 p. m.
tonight, making up Tuesday's
unDlayed game.
The Seals made it two out of
three over the Acorns behind
the eight . hit pitching of Bob
Barthelson, clubbing three Oak
hurlers for. 15 base blows. The
O'Doulmen scored six of their
eight runs off Johnny Babich
before he was jerked in the sixth
canto. The victory gave San
Francisco a 2-1 edge in the ser
ies. Carl Dumler outpitched Sac
ramento's leading- moundsman,
uuy r letcher, to give San Diego
its third straight over the Capi
tal city club. Dumler was spot
ted to a two-run lead bv his
mates in the first stanza and
scattered nine hits in limiting
the Solons to three tallies. The
Padres followed their first-frame
scoring with single counters in
the third, seventh and eighth
innings.
JJon Osborn went the distance
for the Angel-s in their 8-1 vic
tory over the Stars, the first out
of three games with their cross
town rivals. The two clubs bat
tled for six innings knotted at
one-all before Los Angeles gain
ed two runs in the seventh and
five more in the ninth.
