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.

Tommy Bridges, whom he caught
at Detroit. Bridges won 66 games
for the Tigers over a three-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

Savings Bonds grow into a handy reserve for machinery replacements.
Do yosi have a tractor groiving ?
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.
