Double Win
Over Angels
Br PAUL WELLS
Associated Press Sports Writer
Portland and Seattle raced
down the Pacific coast league
straightaway today under a full
head of steam, with the Beavers
half a game farther in front of
the Rainiers.
A double victory over the Los
Angeles Angels . 5-2 and 11-7
boosted Portland to a four-game
lead over the rampant Rainiers,
who won their sixth in a row
last night, beating Oakland's
Acorns 4-2.
The San Francisco Seals took
a 2-1 series edge over Sacramen
to by shading the Solons 1-0 in a
10-inning pitching duel that saw
Elmer Orella out-toss 21-game
winner Guy Fletcher. Holly
wood beat another formidable
hurler, ValUe Eaves, when they
came from behind to nose out
the San Diego Padres 5-4 in
rounding out the night's slate.
Opportune Wins .
The Beavers' twin killing
gave them three out of four over
the' Angels at the crucial mo
ment when the . Rainiers are
making their bid for first place.
Jake Mooty held last year's
champions to six hits in winning
the abbreviated curtain raiser
5-2, beating Jorge (Pancho) Co
rnelias whose teammates made
three errors behind his ..seven
safety flinging. Southpaw Syd
Cohen got credit for Portland's
H-7 nightcap win in which the
Angels outhit Portland 15-14.
The Beavers overcame a two-
run deficit in the second by scor
ing three times and then explod'
ed for seven in the fourth to put
the game in the cooler.
Turpin Wins No. 14
Farmer Hal Turpin notched
No. 14 for the Rainiers in their
4-2 triumph overithe Acorns. Se-.
attle pushed over all its counters
in the lucky seventh off Mitch
Chetkovich on three singles, Hal
Sueme's double and a pair of
costly errors by shortstop Jake
Caulfield.
The win was Seattle' third
straight over the Oaks.

bouts of the summer season is on
tap at Madison Square Garden
tonight witli Welterweight
Champion Freddie "Red" Coch

gling in a return non-title 10

again watching the Brooklvn
slugger knock out the Elizabeth,
N. J., champ, a crowd of 17,000
is expected to pay close to $100,
000, one of the biggest gates of
the year.
The Broadway betting boys,
as in the first bout on June 28,
have made Rocky a 1 to 2 favor-

Seeks victory
Over Weary Babe
By JERRY LISKA
LAKE FOREST, 111., Aug. 24
(P) Defending Champion Doro
thy Germain today tackled her
fairways Nemesis, a weary Babe
Didrikson Zaharias, in an east-
west feature of the semi-final
round of the Womens Western
Amateur Golf tournament.
In the opposite bracket, a
hard-hitting dark horse, Meda
list Louise Suggs of Atlanta, Ga.,
collided with the 1944 runner
up, Phyllis Otto of Atlantic, la.
Miss Germain, a tousled
haired lass from Philadelphia,
was gambling a shot at her third
straight amateur crown as she
squared off against the Los An
geles veteran Who 'trimmed her
in the finals of the last two
Women's Western .Open tour
neys. Dottv's most recent humilia
tion at the hands of the versatile
Babe was a 4 and 2 defeat in the
1945 Open at Indianapolis in
June. Last year, Mrs. Zaharias
crushed Miss Germain, 7 and 5,
in the title match of the Western
Open at Park Ridge, 111. .
Miss Germain, however," had
the advantage today of encoun
tering her jinx opponent after
Mrs. Zaharias staggered into the
semi-final chapter after two
straight extra-hole battles.

John West, one of the top ama

sistant Pro Bill Selkirk have en
tered the . pro-amateur tourney
at Portland's Riverside club
which will be played Friday.
The tournament .is over the
36-hole route with the team
having the lowest gross score

arrived in Portland yesterday in
time to get in an 18-hole prac

Rocky's chances of gaining his
fourth straight Garden kayo.
Oddly, the Jersey redhead
who likely will be outweighed
by 10 pounds, may be the sen
timental favorite of the crowd.
Before meeting Rocky, Cochrane
was regarded in some quarters
as a "cheese" champion. His
gallant showing on June 29,
however, demonstrated he was
"no bum." His followers in
creased when he offered no alibi.
"I iust got nailed, that's all." he
said referring to his 10th knock

ninth.

weigbt crown to the burly Lips
comb In Portland some weeks
ago and Lillard has been en
deavoring to ink Jack's signa
ture on a belt battle contract if
Dusette emerges victorious to
night. When the two grapplcrs col
lide head-on it will be for all
the gore, glory and gold that the
grappling grab-bag can provide
and consequently neither of the
boys will stop short of mat may
hem. When Dusette attempted to
shake hands with Jack in the
ring last week, Lipscomb an
swered with a snarl and a kick
which didn't tend to breed any
feeling of brotherly love be
tween the two bitter rivals. The
glance that Dusette shot at Lips
comb after this incident would
have put the chill on a full
grown grizzly bear and Georges
is not likely to forget when the
two musclers square off tonight.
Added police protection will
be provided for the safety of all
concerned as Lipscomb has
vowed that Dusette will leave
the ring in only one way and
that's feet first.

vidson will get a look at
"Sneeze" "Achiu's nerve holds
