While Joyce was turning in his masterful four-hit job, Port land's reliable Ad Liska was chalking up his 14th win of the year 12-3 against the Hollywood Stars to boost the Beavers' lead over the Rainiers to four -and a half games. The two northwest engage ments were the only games scheduled Tuesday. Joyce Rated Best Percentage-wise, the tall San Francisco righthander stands second among the circuit's hurl ers with his 21-6 mark, but in the win column he is far away the best on the coast. His tri umph over Seattle was his elev enth out of the last 12 games he has worked. Latecomer Bud Beasley, who joined the Sacra mento Solons at the end of the Reno schoolteaching term, heads the list with a 7-1 record. The Seals spotted Jovce to a winning lead in the second in ning, scoring two runs off Alex Palica, starting Seattle pitcher. They got their third tally in the eighth on Third Baseman Ray Perry's homer over the left field wall. . The Rainiers pushed over their only counter in the last of the eighth when Charley Aleno singled and came all the way home as Bernie Uhalt and Char ley Peterson collided in going after Hal Sueme's pop fly.. Liska Hit Freely Liska was hit freely, but did not allow Hollywood to bunch its 13 safeties. Portland started its scoring parade with two runs in the first frame on two walks and Charley English's triple. The Bevos got four more off righthander Joe Mishasek in the second on a walk, four singles and a three-bagger by Johnny Q Neil. Before the tilt was over the loop-leaders had slammed out 16 hits off Mishasek and Re liefer Bob Williams, including seven doubles and three triples. 'The third place Solons, eight games behind the Rainiers, open their series against the sixth spot Angels in a twin bill at Wriglcy field this afternoon. ' Oakland's Acorns, who won lljeir first scries in seven weeks against Sacramento, tackle the faltering San Diego Padres this evening. The Oaks rest in fifth, one notch out of the first divi sion.

The old recognized mark of 4:02.6 also was beaten by An dersson who was caught in 4:02.2 in the first meeting of the two this season.

JOHNSON PACKING CO, THE HOME OF QUALITY Cards Edge Braves, 3-2; Bruins Lose Chicago's Lead Narrowed To Three Games; Voiselle Beats Cubs For 11th Win Br JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer Sam Brcadon's right to be known as the David Harum of baseball remains unchallenged today off incomplets returns of his Cooper-for-Barrett-and-a-bar-rcl-of-cash deal with Boston. Mort Cooper yet may win a pennant for the Braves when the millionaire owners excavate enough supporting talent but the proof is on the table that Charley "Red" Barrett is doing a great job of tossing the Red Birds toward a possible fourth straight flag. Barrett Wins No. 10 President Breadon of the World Champion St Louis Cards must have been well satisfied by Barrett's 3-2 victory over Boston last night for it was his tenth since joining the Birds and twelfth of the season. His pre vious high for an entire cam paign with the Braves was 12 in 1943, his rookie year. Neither pawn ol iimos Dig gest deal is a spring chicken, Cooper admitting 31 summers and Barrett 30, but the red haired chucker from California has been the more impressive! Although Cooper's won and lost mark of 9-1 is tops in the league, he has been troubled by an ail ing flipper, hasn't started a game since June 27 and has worked only four complete tilts since he was sold May 23. Two of his successes, both on relief, were scored at St. Louis' expense while Barrett's only decision against his old Boston mates was last night's nine-hit job against Nate Andrews. Bums Trim Bucs The Dodgers squared their series with Pittsburgh; after blowing a Sunday doublcheadcr, by trimming the Pirates, 5-2, tak ing advantage of sloppy enemy fielding. Four boots by the Buccos cost Nick Strincevich the verdict to Hal Gregg although neither one lasted. Dick Mauney of the Phillies won't forget July 17, 1945 for many a moon because he cele brated the birth of a second son by notching the second triumph of his big league career. The score was 3-1, and, just like back on July 1 when he broke into the win column, the victim was Cincinnati. With Mauney allowing only three hits, Joe Bowman could expect little more than his second setback since joining the Reds in early June. Giants Edge Cubs Bill Voiselle clipped Chicago's wings with a five-hitter for his eleventh triumph, 2-1. Danny Gardella's single with the bases loaded in the fourth provided the decisive margin over Paul Erickson. The result snapped a Giant five-game losing streak and a Cub five-tilt victory march. Chicago's loss and St. Louis' win sliced the Cubs' lead to three games as they go into an import ant series with Brooklyn, only 3 s lengths away. Two games today can make or break the Dodgers' western trip. Detroit goes into Washington tonight for a twi-night double header, inaugurating a five game vital series in which the Nats could go over the top. Detroit at New York and St. Louis at Washington were rained out yes terday and the Chicago at Phila delphia contest was moved back because of transportation dif ficulties. Cleveland stopped Boston, 6-1, for Steve Gromek's 11th decision, in the only American league con test. Johnny Lazor's homer saved the Sox from a shutout but they dropped to fourth and Jim Wilson suffered his sixth setback. SWIMMING CLEMENTON, N. J.

MEATS Ruling Robs Golfs Little Guys PHILADELPHIA, July 18 IP) Goltdom's llttlo guys nro robbed by tho ruling which limits PGA qualifiers to 32, says Marty Lyons, president of tho Phlliulelphin PGA. Tho group hero will pro pose and back up an, amend ment at tho November PGA meeting in Chicago, which would increase tho number of qualifiers to 64 "unless some other section wants to spon sor tho program," Lyons said, Lyons was joined by three members of tho Philadelphia group who ranked among tho Texas League Shows Signs Of Rebellion DALLAS, Tcx July 18 W The Texas league is moving it hopes toward a showdown with the National Association of Professional Baseball leagues on tile question of suspended cir cuits returning to play in 1946 with full privileges of leagues that have continued. It was caused by a ruling from Judge W, G. Bramluim, president of the association, and backed by the executive com mittee. Bramhum said tho Texas league, which has been inoper ative since 1942, could sign players after October 1 but could not transfer by sale beforo De cember 1, which marks the end of the baseball draft period. Under this ruling the circuit would be able only to make con tracts with free agents. President J. Alvin Gardner passed the opinion on to the club owners and the answers show ed a sense of rebellion with a sentiment toward asking other Inactive leagues to support the Texas league in its fight which, Gardner said, would be taken to Commissioner A. B. Chandler if Bramham and his committee do not reverse their stand. A LONG END EVANSTON, 111.
