Joyce Cops
21st Win;
Beats Suds
Portland Blasts Hollywood
To Boost Loop Lead to 4'i
'.Games Over Seattle Club
' By PAUL WELLS
Associated Press Sports Writer
T3ig Bob Joyce, the San Fran
cisco Seals' one-man pitching
stpff, had his 21st victory of the
season in the record books to
day after throwing a 3-1 crimp
into Seattle's first place aspira
tions in the Pacific Coast Base
ball league last night.
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 two teams will play
a-doubleheader Friday to make
lib for the game unplayed yester
day. Campbell Named Line

Gunder Says
Four-MJnute
Mile Is Near
By EDWIN SHANKE
MALMO, Sweden, July 18 (IP)
The four-minute mile, long con
sidered an impossibility by many
leading track and field experts,
is going to be accomplished soon
says Gunder Haegg and the swift
Swedish runner believes he's
going to be the one to turn the
trick. 3
The long-striding haberdash
ery salesman came pretty close
to doing it yesterday when he
was clocked in the record-shattering
time of 4:01.4 in better
ing the old standard set by his
rival countryman, Arne Anders
son, on July 1, 1943.
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. The 29-year-old
schoolmaster ran a 4:01.6
mile a year ago today but that
mark has not been acted on yet.

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.

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.
