Tough Rival
For Leone
Promoter Mack Llllard said
this morning that he was trying
to .sign some outstanding op-,
ponent to meet An tone Leone in
the main event, on the bleep
bill Friday night at the armory.
- Llllard has approached both
Jack "Buck" Lipscomb and Pete
Belcastro, two rugged maulers
In their' own right, but so far
the two gladiators are shying off
from a tussle with the Oyster
Bay terror. '
Leone is willing - to., tackle
either one of boys and Llllard
may succeed in signing one or
the.' other sometime today.
Leone's drastic methods have
proved to be very successful in
the Klamath area,- but he will
have all he can handle if either
Belcastro or Lipscomb agree to
go the mat - with ' him Friday
night. v -

' Games Ahead; Start Win 2,
By The Associated Press
It looks as if the Pacific Coast
Baseball league race will have
to be decided in future games
between the two leading teams
no other club seems able to
chew anything off the fattening
percentages of the Portland Bea
vers and Seattle Ralniers.
Both ' teams pounded out
doubleheader wins yesterday
the circuit leading Beavars
blanked Oakland 6-0 and 7-0 for
a 5 and 3 series edge while the
Ralniers trimmed Los Angeles
4-1, and 4-0 for a seven out ot
elgnt games margin.
Seattle's heavy edge over the
Angels pared Portland's league
lead to three and one-half
games, about the Irreducible
minimum in this year's race bo
twen the two northwest clubs.
Stars Get Hot
Tall-end Hollywood also won
botn of its Sunday games, beat
ing San Diego 6-3 and 10-5 while
San Francisco's slimline SpbIa
split with Sacramento, 7-0 and
1-8. Both Hollywood and Sac
ramento finished the week with
e-2 series margins.
Portland put its first game in
the cooler with a four run out
burst in the first inning with a
triple, two doubles, a single and
a hit-by-pttchor. Single tallies
were added in the sixth and
ninth frames while submariner
Ad Llska was holding the Oaks
to six scattered safeties.
Roy Helser turned back the
Oaks with two hits in the second
game while his mates were
pounding three hurlers for 10
hits and seven runs. This game
also was on the ice after the first
inning, the Beavers gaining two
scores in their initial turn at bat.
Pitcher s Duel
Seattle's 4-1 win in the opener
was marked by a pitcher's duel
between two 18-year-olds, Alex
Pallca and Ken Hicks. Palica
held the Angels to six hits, three
of them in the ninth when he
was faced by a short lived rally
which netted Loa Angeles only
one run after they filled the
bases with one out. Veteran
Hal Turpin handcuffed the An
gels with five hits and no runs
in Ute second gamo while Seattle
was converting IA hits into four
tallies.
Hollywood pulled up within
a half game of seventh place Los
Angeles with . its double win
over San Dlcgo, threatening for
the first time since the second
week ot the season to leave, the
cellar spot. '
Three runs In the seventh
sewed up the opener for the
Stars after they hud scored twice
in the first and once in the third
inning. San Diego threatened
with three tallies in Its half ot
the seventh but was held score
less the rest of the way. Four
San Diego hurlers failed to stop
Hollywood in the nightcap, al
though tho Padres tied up the
game at five-all in tho seventh
only to see the Stars bounce
back with five runs In the over
time eighth frame.
Joyce Wins No. 19
Bob Joyce, No. 2 hurler In the
league, chalked up his 10th win
of the season as San Francisco
won 7-0 In the opener at Sacra
mento. Joyce's win was his sec
ond shutout of the week. The
Solons came back In the rtlght
cao to sew up the tilt In the first
Inning with three runs, adriinv
four in the second and a final
one In the fourth while J"
Wood was llmlUnv t-e Seals to
one tally in the sixth. -

The big buck private from
Fort Lewis, who last year erased
the season's hottest golfer, Byron
Nelson of Toledo, on the 36th
hole, said today lack of prac
tice spelled his doom as the big
gest field In the fixture's history
teed off In the first half ot the
36-holo qualifying round.
"I have played only three
rounds in five weeks, Hamilton
said. "And my scores were 77,
79 and 72. You don't win any
tournaments these days with
scores like that."
Hlnet Shatters Par
The 72 came yesterday as
Jimmy nines, Chicago blond,
ripped seven strokes off par
with a 31-3465 to take first
place In a special 18-holo, $1000
final tuneup for the big event.
Sam Byrd of Detroit, the former
Yankee baseball outfielder;
Denny Shute of Akron, former
British open and two-time PGA
ruler, and Chick Rutan of Birm
ingham, Mich., finished In a
aecood-placo deadlock with 67's.
Nelson, winner ot his last
eight tournaments a record-
failed to turn In a score after
carding n 38 on the front nine.
Yesterday's $1000 event was
the last free ride the field ot ap
proximately wo naa around tne
Moraine layout, for today the
chips are down and the boys
had to find the right answers to
a lot of questions the exacting
course had to ask, If they were
to land among the 32 low scorers.
Another 18-holo round Is
scheduled tomorrow, and then
the qualifiers will battla It out
