Before the takeoff, Don relates, Schmeling tried to beg of f the trip. The CO insisted he would have to jump because Goebbels was sending photo graphers to take pictures of his leap.

Passeau Sparks Cubs To 1st Place Br JIMMY JORDAN CHICAGO, July 11 P For - ...;V, -lHntxr trniihle this guy Claude Passeau has done quite a piece of work to help put the Chicago Cubs in first place in tne ttauonai league. Claude, now in his 11th season-in the major leagues not so many weeks ago was ready to quit the big time. He figured that recurrent troubles with an arm he broke playing high school football 19 years ago were sufficient to keep him down on his farm at Lucedale, Miss. But Cubs manager, Charley Grimm, had a different idea, and today Passeau is not only 4h. laaAlna nltnhm- nf the first place Cubs, but he's been .get ting in his ncKs ai uie piaie along with hurling with that bad elbow which has brought him nine straight victories. . "It was a 'can I, or else' pro position this spring," he said to day. "I came back to the Cubs just to try. That elbow, with the bone chips bothered me. I told Grimm I didn't think I could make it He. thought I could. And here I am."

Attention IILCCS Free Dinner Wednesder. July 11, IS4S Bevos Edge Seals, 7-6; Solons Win Sacramento Moves Into 3rd Place; Portland Increases Lead To Four Full Games By PAUL WELLS Associated Press Sports Writer Third base was beginning to look like the far-off promised land today to the faltering Oak land Acorns, who have failed to advance a man that far in their last 22 innings of Pacific Coast league play a new mark for the s-tason. The Oaks' 10-0 loss last night tn Kneramento moved the fast- stepping Solons into third place as the San Francisco Seals were being nosed out 7-6 by Portland. The victory increased the loop- leading Beavers margin over the idle Seattle Rainiers to four games. The two games were the only ones booked Tuesday. Fletcher Wins No. 15 Guv Fletcher, ace Sacramen to hurler. was beaten out of a no-hit, no-run triumph when Bill Raimondi, Oakland's catcher manager, rapped R single to left in the third inning for his club's only bingle. It was Fletcher's 15th win of the year against eight losses. The Acorns drought in the base-hit and paydirt department began in the second frame of last Saturday's game with Portland, and breaks the previous record in futility set last week by Los Angeles which registered 31 con secutive scoreless innings. Five of Sacramento s 13 swats off three Oak moundsmen were for extra bases two doubles and three triples. Garth (Red) Mann, who was touched for six tallies in four innings, was cred ited with the defeat. Seals' Pitching Falters The Seals' descent to the bot tom of the first division marks the first time since June 22 they have been out of third place. Their 7-6 loss to the Beavers was their eighth defeat in the last 10 games, a slump attributed to sudden failure in the pitching department. Portland got off to an early 5-0 lead in the first four cantos, due largely to circuit-clouts by Outfielder Frank Shone and First Baseman - Larry Barton. San Francisco exploded in the sixth with, a five-run assault off Syd Cohen to knot the count and went ahead on another tally in the seventh. - The Seals' ad vantage was short-lived as the Beavers tied it up in the eighth and pushed the winning run over in we last oi tne mntn. With one away in that frame, Frank Demaree beat out an in field -hit and went to second on Ray Perrys wild throw to first San Francisco's relief hurler. Tony Buzolich, who replaced Frank Seward in the sixth, then purposely walked Spencer Har ris. Demaree scored on : Ted GulUc'a long double to left Wandel Mossor, who went in for Cohen in the seventh, was the winning pitcher. A full schedule Is listed for today. San Diego will open its series at Los Angeles with an afternoon doubleheader, while Hollywood begins hostilities at Seattle in a twin bill tonight.
