By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Still at the bottom of the pile in the Pacific Coast League Saturday without a victory to their credit are the Hollywood Stars, champions of the circuit for the last two years. Portland beat them again Fri day night. 9-8. for . the fourth straight time, or possibly it should be said that the Stars beat them selves again. Without detracting anything from the Ports, who have played heads - up baseball and shown a tight Inner defense, it is patently obvious that Hollywood's mneid leaves mucn to oe aesirea. BLEW The Stars blew their game In the sixth inning. Jack ' Lohrkc. stepping in at short for the iirst time, muffed a double play ball that would have retired the side without a score. After that the Ports went on to score seven runs. Fielding lapses and slow base running by another shortstop, George Woplnek cost tho Stars two other games, and Wopinek now Is ticketed for New Orleans. Hollywood hud a 4-0 lead through the fifth and Red Munger had shackled the Beavers. At th-it point, Portland had failed to hit and had only two men on tne bases, both from Walks. But In the Portland sxth. four hits and three runs put Munger out. Then came Bill MacDonald and the Beavers took him for three hits with' Don Egbert's homer bringing In thrco runs. Bill Bottler pitched the sixth and part of the seventh for Port land and was in trouble all the time. Two more Portland pitchers, Al Porto and Lee Anthony, also had their hands full until a high fly to Granny Gladstone In the ninth, with une run in and the tying run on, ended Uie game. Four - hits by outfielder Jack Faber. one of them a home run, paced San Diego to an 8-5 victory over Los Angeles. The Angels drove rookie John Tomonosky oil the hill in the second and Had a 4-0 lead in the fourth until the Padres began to solve Bobby Splcer. and two home rims got them back In the ball game. A four-run assault in the elchth clinched the victory. Dick Sislei' connected for ono of the Padre homers and Fred Richards hit one for the Angels. -EVENED Sacramento evened its scries with Oakland by taking a 4-1 de cision. The wlldness of Oakland pitchers contributed to their down fall. Don Ferrarese. young Ook lefly, had allowed the Sacs only two hits, one of them a homer in the fourth inning by Tommy Gla viano, until he blew sky high in the ninth. Bob Dllllngcr singled and vas sncrltled by Hank Schcnz. Olevluno then singled home Dil linger, whereupon. Fcrrareso re tired Nippy Jones and thqn walked the next three batters, lorclng in Glavlnno. Don Murphy came on to relieve and hit Richie Myers, forcing In another run. Seattle and San Francisco battled for 15 Innings before the Ralniers won it. 10-5. by virtue of a five run splurge In the 15th. In which Al Znrllln homered with a mate aboard. It was Seattle's fourlh straight over the Seals. II was tied 3-3 in the fourth. Snn Francisco went ahead 5-3 in the Ilflh but Seattle tied It 5-5 in the eighth, leading to the long overtime. s Pin foiyrney To Start The 10th annual Men's City Bowl ing Tournament will get underway tomorrow afternoon and last throughout the week, according to I tournament officials.

By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK Ifl In a recent Iain ning bee about great curve ball pitchers, Birdie Tebbetts. the new Cincinnati manager, scid he be lieved he . would have to take Tommy Bridges, whom he caught at Detroit. Bridges won 66 games for the Tigers over a three-year span in the mid-thirties. "If they'd ever taken pictures of Tommy's curve there wouldn't be any of that silly Argument about whether a ball breaks." Birdie said positively.

Harris rolled his earlier this year. for shaking off my signs and went out to him and said 'okay, wise guy, you know so .much, throw anything you want to and I'll catch it. You won't get any more signs from me today. "We went along all right for an inning or so, and then there came a spot that was perfect for a fast ball. I was set for it, all right, but it wasn't a fast ball. It broke down and hit my foot and nearly killed me. I was dancing around and Tommy hollered 'all right. Birdie, want to give uj? I spent six pitches setting that one up for you.' I never tried that on him again." Ball players have their heroes, too. Marty Marlon's was Joe Dt Magglo. Though they served their playing careers in opposite leagues, the former St. Louis Cardinal short stop saw considerable of Joe In spring exhibtion games, In all-star games and in several world series against the "Yankees. Asked if he wasn't maybe passing up another pretty good player who was around in his time, named Babe Ruth, Marty sold it was one of the regrets of his life that he never saw tho Bambino in action. "Maybe you'll find it hard to be lieve, but I've been In this game 19 years, 15 of them in the big lea gues, counting this one, and I never had ft chance to see Ruth play," he said.' The outstanding quote of the new baseball season was credited to Dave Fhilley, the eminent outfiel der, who, upon being traded from the Philadelphia Athletics to the contending Cleveland Indians, said "Playing against 'em, I never saw any reason why they shouldn't win the pennant. I hope T can put some fire into 'em. ' The remark was reported to have received a sonu what mixed recep tion in tne Cleveland dressing room.

Y'our tractor may be good for some time to come, but it can't last forever. Someday, every piece of equipment you own ( including your tractor) will have to be replaced. Nat urally you can't plant a tractor the same way you plant a crop. But there is an easy way that you can "grow" replacements. By putting aside part of each year's earn ings in United States Savings Bonds you can build the reserve you'll need. Every $300 you put into Series E Bonds this year will be worth $400 in less than ten years . . . $538.72 in less than twenty years. - Bonds can take care of other things, too things like education for your' youngsters when they grow up, a new roof for your barn, ' or cash for your "take-it-easy" years. Why not; ask your banker about the many' advantages of U.S. Savings Bonds? He'll tell you they're one of the safest investments you can make . . . that there's no better friend when emergencies or sickness strike.
