An.'Cl Second Baseman Lou Stringer clouted one over the left field fence for the only score against Southpaw Tom Seats, the Padres' hard- luck champion. Seats now has lost eight games six of them by one run. Russ Bauers, going the route for the first time, was the winner, icatterlng eight hits while Seats gave up seven. Four Oakland errors contributed to Charlev Oassaways downfall as the Portlands, who knocked the Acorns out of the lead a fortnight ago, did it all over again. Two of the Beaver tallies were unearned, but big Jack Salveson held the Oaks to six hits and scoreless until the ninth innlr when Gene Lillard homered with a man on. The Beavers took the series lead, Ivn ipnnies to one. Walt Dubiel's slick four-hit job gave Seattle its first series win over the Stars. Dublel walked none, fan ned three and got solid support in cluding three double plays and a pair of fancy catches by Center fielder Johnny Rucker. Mickey Rocco drove In three runs and scored a fourth to lead an early assault on Hugh Orphan. A fifth run came off Al Yaylian. : tfaU ScaiLiAufUr Sports Editor f 7 BUCK DAVIDSON SPENDS ACTIVE TIME AT ARMORY Virtue triumphed at the armory Inst night, in the ring at least, but not until after the paragons of mat Innocence, Pierre LaBelle and Jack Klser took a whale of a beating from their opponents.
