OREGON FRIDAY, JULY 30, 1954 EMIywood, Tociight Faclres a. eetOS h Vital eries Stars' PCL Lead In Danger By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The most vital series of the Pa cific Coast League season starts Friday night in Ban Diego, where pace-setting Hollywood ties into Lefty O Doul's second-place Pad' res in a five-game series. The series starts with Hollywood holding a 22-Rame lead in the Handings, so if the Padres are seriously thinking of dethroning the Stars, who have won two pen nants in a row, it behooves them to sweep the series. Hollywood missed several scor ing opportunities Thursday night as It bowed to Oakland, 4-3. Care less base running snulfed out two scoring chances but as late as the ninth the Stars still were threaten ing to win. They had the bases loaded when Lee Walls stepped up with two out and whacked Al Get ters first pitch for a high pop fly. Artie Schallock, who started for Oakland, and Mel Queen, Holly-, wood's starter, weren't around at' the finish. Bob Kerrigan of San Diego gave Portland 10 hits but beat them, 5-2, with some potent help from Padre batters. Big Luke Easter walloped a 400-foot home run, his third since donning San Diego livery recently. It was the filth win this week for San Diego in Portland. Jehosle Heard, Jess Plores and Lee Anthony pitched for Portland and were nicked for 11 hits. , Steve Nagy, a wily southpaw, pitched Seattle to a 4-1 decision over Sacramento. The only run off him came in the first inning and It was unearned. Marino Plerettl of Sacramento, trying for his 15th victory, was nicked for a triple by George Schmees and home runs by Clarence Maddern and Bay Or telg. Nagy held Sacramento to four bits. Los Angeles trampled Ban Fran cisco, 10-3. The Angels had two big Innings, the fourth and the ninth.' They scored five runs In each while Bubba Church was go ing along smoothly and pitching scoreless ball for eight Innings. Eddie Chandler, a former Angel, vas batted out In the fourth and Al Lien took over, only to run into another big Angel rally. The An gels banged out 15 hits in one of their best offensive perlormanccs of the season.

"The mile of the century" will bring together John Landy of Aus tralia and Roger Bannister of England on the final day of the July 30 Aug. 7 games. By a quirk of fate the only two runners to cover tne mile in less than four minutes are subjects of Her Majesty. Bannister first cracked the four-minute barrier last May, covering the elRht fur longs in 3:59.4. Seven weeks later In Finland, Landy amazed the world with his 3:58. Their first meeting features a week-long parade of more than 800 men and women athletes from 37 nations of the British Empire. Canada tops the field with 225 en tries. The Empire Games, held every four years (two years after every Olympic Games) consists of track and field, boxing, cycling, fencing, lawn bowling, rowing and sculling, swimming and diving welghtllft- ing and wrestling. The games were first held in 1930 at Hamilton. Ont. Skipped twice during World War II, they last were held in 1950 at Auck land N.Z . Construction facilities for the games are on the colossal side. The new stadium, costing one and a half million dollars, accommo dates 35,000. It's Canada's largest stadium and will become the home o! Vancouver's new prolesslonul football team. Costs of all facilities, estimated to be well above two million dol lars, were raised mostly by con tributions. A new swimming pool cost $.100,000 and a cycling track $115,000. The pool will revert to the University of British Columbia and the track to (lie city parks de partment.' A rowing course has been provided on the Vedder Canal. The No. 1 spectator is expected to be Prince Philip, Duke of Edin burgh, who Is scheduled to attend as the official emissary of Queen Elizabeth. The British Empire Games rep resent the biggest athlete event to be staged In Western Canada. And this city of 360,000 is taking it In stride. rut" f AA 4 By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS AMERICAN LEAGUE W L Pet.

Promoter Mack Llllard con firmed the signing of both fighters this morning after Roy Drake manager of Price took the battle into deep consideration due to tne fact that Grow has quite a bit more experience than Price.
