FRIDAY, AGUST 27, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE N1NK Stars, San Diego Remain In PC Tie By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Twenty games to go. and Holly wood and San Diego still are dead locked at the top of the Pacific Coast League standings. Hollywood shellacked Seattle Thursday night, 7-1, while San Di ego was hard pressed to edge Oak land 5-4. Roger Bowman, talented Holly wood southpaw, gained his 19th win as he limited the previously red hot Seattle club to five hits. He had only one bad inning, the third, when he walked the first two men and the Rainiers scored their lone run. Hollywood iced the game in the first inning, getting three runs on one hit. Dick Smith led off with a triple. A sacrifice, two errors, a double steal nnd a hit batsmen ligured in the Stars' Scoring spree against Seattle's Bob Hall. The Bowman victory marked a milestone in Hollywood pitching. It was the first time in 13 games that the starting hu'rler was around at the finish. S.n Diego got some very ef fective relief pitching from Theolic Smith and Al Lyons and always dangerous Earl Rapp poled his 10th and 20th home runs in the win over Oakland. Smith came in to the game m the fifth and Lyons took over in the ninth. Oakland used five pitchers in trying to notch its first win of the series, and Chris Van Cuyk, who relieved Ernie Broglio In the third, was saddled with the loss. Los Angeles was in a hitting mood as it plastered Sacramento. 14-2. The Angels collected 21 hits, Bud Hardin, Bruce Edwards and Fred Richards getting four each, while John Pyecha. gangling rook ie, held the Solons to six. He fan had eight and walked four. Despite all the hitting theer was only one homer, by Bruce Edwards. It was an Angel record for hits this sea- ton Fletcher Robbe's 10th Inning! home run into the right neittj stands gave the Portland Beavers n 7-5 victory over San j-rancisco. Portland won the hard way, foi ( San Francisco jumoed off in the first Inning with five runs and had a 5-3 lead until the Ports tied It in the ninth.

Next Week Important For Braves MILWAUKEE I The next five days will tell the story of the 1954 National League pennant race. The front-running New York Giants open a two-game series against Charlie Grimm's Milwau kee Braves, the league's hotiest team, tonight, with the second njace Brooklyn Dodgers moving in for four starting with a Sunday double-header.' The Braves, boasting 30 victories and only 10 losses since the All Star breuk July 13. will throw long Gene Conley (13-6) and veteran Warren Spalin (15-101 against the Giants in their determined drive for the flag. Sal (The Barber) Maglie and Ruben Gomez- were the likely New York choices. The Giants, who held a Com manding I5t2-game lead when the Braves opened up their drive, were down to only 6'i when they moved in for the vital series. The Braves have beaten the league leaders in their last six meetings, sweeping three-game series both here and at New York. ' "If we're gonna win it. we gotta win it here." Grimm repeated again yesterday after the Braves had won their fourth in beating Philadelphia 3-2. The Braves themselves, despite a modest record of 32 wins and 28 losses in County Stadium, figure they can do it. As a matter of fact, they've thought it since the last time the Giants were due in back in mid-July. And with Bobby Thomson in the regular lineup for the first time since his spring training ankle fracture, the spirit is even higher. "He's a great guy." said Grimm. "He's got it and the other guys know It. That helps, plenty, when you've got to win to keep going." Jimmy Byrne Registers TKO Victory PORTLAND (0 The ring phy sician refused to let Bill Little, 220, Mot'":. Wash., come out for the , fi; und here Thursday night in scheduled 10-rounder with Portland's Jimmy Byrne, 225. The Portland heavy had opened a cut over Little's left eye with several hard rights In the third round. The cut bled profusely then and again in the fourth round, when Byrne staggered the Morton swinger and had him holding on ; al the bell. I Other results: W. C.

The Sportsman By CLAYTON H ANN ON The rainy weather that has cov eted '-he Klamath Basin the past couple of days has in some cases helped the outdoors man, but In the majority of the hunting and fish ing outlooks, it has done more damage. Fishing had slowed to a walk for most anslrra up lo the time that the rains began to inli, out since Uie precipitation has arrived, ang ling has come almost to a halt. All reports from lake fithing in the area are negative, but should the weather change for the better in the next few days, the high lakes should be good for a short while longer, Williamson River, which has be?n a leading contributor to the fisherman's creel this season is still high on the lists of many ang lers, but only because the other nearby streams have tapered off sharply. Wood River, another good stream a few weeks apro has just about shut the door to anglers, with the exception of some fly fish ing late in the evenings. The same applies for both forks of the Sprague River, which has pro duced some very nice catches this season, but as of now and the ores- 1 ent weather conditions, it too has slowed down greatly. No reports were received from Crescent Creek, the Little Des chutes or the Rogue River, but some catches are probably being made in each locality. Probably the best bet on the first two streams would be flies, and the I most likely spot would be near the j town of Crescent. Dove hunting, which opens next J Wednesday, September 1, hasn't suffered any real great damage j as of yet. but should the rain and I wind continue, most of the birds j might take a notion to leave the I country. Tn case some readers missed the ! story on page 1 of yesterday's ; Herald and News, no migratory bird stamp is needed to hunt these birds, but Postmaster Chet Langs- Llet urged duck and goose hunters to get their stamps early to avoid the rush later in the season. Probably the only relief gained from the storms is for the deer hunter who was afraid of a hot and dry summer and early fall which would give officials an excuse for delaying the buck season. Oh well, everyone can't be pleased all of the time. Minor League Baseball Bv T1IU ASSOCIATED PRESS .

It's been almost all in the Giants' favor so far. Thomson broke his ankle during spring training and has been benched as a regular un til this week. But tonight and to morrow the Braves' get their chance to reap a few dividends. Milwaukee has beaten New York six In a row and when the Giants invade County Stadium for this two-game series they'll find Thomson fit and ready for the first time. The Scots-born outfielder, a hust ler with a natural flair for inspir ins his mates, personally account ed for the first victory In the Braves' string over the Giants when he drove 111 the winning run as a pinch hitter In Milwaukee July 23. In his second game In the start ing lineup he drilled two doubles and a single yesterday as the Braves edged Philadelphia 3-2 and crept within 'i games of the Oiants. Antonelli, the Oiants' prize in the deal, won't show against his' for mer mates. He worked yesterday, winning his 19th game by shading the Chicago Cubs 2-1 in the second half of a double-header. The Cubs snapped a seven-game New York winning splurge with a 4-3 verdict in the opener. o e THERE S DR.
