Pulford Rocks Up 18th Win
Of Season; Seattle Nudges
Seals In 11-lnning Tussle
By PAUL WELLS
Associated Press Sports Writer
Portland and Seattle, continu
ing their breakneck pace as they
nearcd the Pacific Coast league
three-quarter pole, are still sep
arated by six games after both
clubs won their third in a row
last night.
The loop - leading Beavers,
maintaining their jinx over the
Hollywood Stars, breezed to an
easy 9-3 victory, but the Rain
icrs had to eo 11 innings before
they nosed out the San Fran
cisco Seals 4-3.
The battle for the other two
first division berths tightened
as the Oakland Acorns divided
a doubleheader with the San
Diego Padres, dropping the cur
tain raiser 3-1 and taking the
nightcap 8-6. The split moved
the Oaks within half a game of
the fourth-berth Seals. Sacra
mento's Solons remained two
tilts ahead of San Francisco af
ter losing to the Los Angeles
Angels 4-1.
Pulford Wins No. 18
Righthander Don Pulford, ace
of the Portland pitching staff,
chalked un his 18th win of the
season against eight losses as
he let Hollywood down witn
eight hits and three tallies. The
Bevos drove John Marshall, the
Stars' starting hurler, off the
hill with a six-run outburst. The
defeat was Holly wood"s 14th
straight at the hands of the
Beavers.
Seattle had to come from be
hind to shade the Seals 4-3, with
Pinch-Hitter Bill Matheson play
ine the hero's role. He drove in
the tying run in the first of the
nirrth with a sharp single, and
then repeated in the 11th to send
Joe Dobbins scampering home
with the winning counter. Math
eson did not rejoin the Rainiers
until this week, having been
anchored in a defense plant.
Angels Whip Sacs
Los Angeles broke a six-game
losing streak .in defeating Sac
ramento 4-1, with Righthander
Don Osborn twirling last year's
champs to victory- Rightfielder
Rip Russell had a perfect night
at the plate, getting five-for-five,
one of them a three-bagger.
Fans will get their money's
worth tonight with three double-
headers on the menu. Twin en
gagements are scheduled be
tween beattle-tsan irancisco,
Portland-Hollywood, and Los

COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 3 (VP)
The word going 'round the Big
Ten is that the battle for the
1945 football championship will
be between Illinois, Michigan.
Minnesota and Ohio State (listed
alphabetically). The dope is that
the first three are well stocked
with veterans while the Bucks,
defending champions, have come
up with another crop of fresh
men that seem perfectly able to
take care of themselves in any
kind of competition. And among
the veterans Ohio State will
have All-American Bill Hackett
at guard and Paul Sarringhaus,
star of the 1942 team, in the
backfield. . .
Ohio State and Michigan each
will play the other three top
rated contenders but Illinois and
Minnesota do not meet.
DAY DREAMS
If it weren't for conflicting big
time tournaments and military
duties, the Ohio Open golf tour
nament next week could be
quite an affair for a state meet.
Toss Byron Nelson, Denny
Shute, Toney Penna and Sgt. E.

have got a right fast field. And
for good measure there could be
Flight Officer Frank Stranahan
of Toledo, runner-up in last

and Maurice McCarthy of Cin
cinnati, the defending state
open champion and a former U.

a path to the top of the American league pitchers with on un
official 0.89 earnod run average and a 10-2 won and lost
record, including five shutouts. Only Davo Ferriss of Boston
