Padres Jump Into
Coast League Lead
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS .
There s a new name atop the
Pacific Coast League standings
Monday the San Diego Padres.
With only two weeks remaining
in the season, the Padres have
displaced the defending champion
Hollywood Stars who are seeking
their third straight title.
The Padres walloped Seattle
twice Sunday, 8-3 and 6-0, as Hol
lywood lost to San Francisco 6-3,
then won from the Seals 2-0. The
day's battling broke the Hollywood-San
Diego deadlock which
had existed for several days.
Hollywood held the lead from
May 20 until San Diego tied it
up Aug. 21, then took a brief lead
Aug. 22, only to fall back and
then tie again last week. Now the
Fadres have a clear-cut one-game
edee as the circuit rests Monday.
San Francisco broke a deadlock
with Oakland lor third place, as
the Oaks lost twice to Los An
geles, Ur5 and 8-5. The Seals have
a one-game bulge for the third
spot.
In the other Sunday contests,
Sacramento beat Portland 1-2 in
an afternoon game at Oroville and
trimmed the Beavers again 2-1
back in Sacramento Sunday night.
Big Luke Easter's 13th homer
helped San Diego in the first
game but the bat of Harry El
liott, league-leading hitter, was
really potent. Elliott got five hits
In the two games, boosting his
average to .360. He has hit safely
In 22 straight games.
Pitcher Eddie Erautt kept 12
Seattle hits scattered in the first
game and he got three hits, In
cluding two doubles, and scored
two runs. Bob Kerrigan held Se
attle to five hits in the nightcap.
The first Hollywood-Seals .game
went 10 innings as Leo Righetti
got a ninth-inning, game-tying
homer for San Francisco. Four
hits and a walk off Hollywood's
Mel Queen brought in three Seal
runs in the 10th. In the nightcap
the Stars got four hits for their
two runs.
Los Angeles splurged for seven
runs in the ninth of the first game
on three hits, two errors and four

Club officials reported that inter
est and advance entries Indicate
that the number of participants
will exceed the previous high of
276 men and women in the 1952
tournament. They said that the

. siderable interest in the Southern
; Oregon, which will attract golfers
from throughout Or e g o n and
' Northern California.

and will rise rapidly In the next
. few days since Rogue Valley men

CaAals Split
By JOE REICHLER
The New York Yankees aren't
conceding the American League
flag to Cleveland but the lirst seed
o( doubt is beginning to grow in
the minds of the defending cham
pions. .
This suspicion was gleaned from
a remark by Allie Reynolds, vet
eran Yankee pitching star who
helped in all five consecu
tive championships.
"If they (the Indians) continue
at this terrific pace," he said,
"they deserve to win." ,
. Reynolds -was referring, of
course, to Cleveland's sensational
.721 winning percentage, & pace
never before attained by an Ameri
can League club. Should -the Indi
ans continue at this pace through
the end of the season, they will
smash the league record of 110
victories turned in by the 1927
Yankees.
The Yankees, traveling at a .690
pace, a feat never Deiore reacneo
bv a runner-up ciuo, aeieaiea me
Chicago White Sox 4-1 yesterday
but tbey lost ground to the Indians.
While the Yankees were winning
their sixth straight, the Tribe was
extending its consecutive vic
tory string to 10 in Boston's Fen
way Park, walloping the Red Sox
twice, 6-2 and 9-1.
This gave the Indians a
four-game lead over the Yankees.

Brooklyn Dodgers whipped the.
Braves in Milwaukee 12-4 and 11-4 !

The best the New Yorkers could
do was gain a split in St. Louis!
after dropping an li-inning o-4 ae
Ision to the Cardinals. They over
came a 3-1 deficit to win the night
cap 7-4.
Cincinnati's Redlegs strength
ened their hold on fourth place,
defeating Philadelphia 3-2 and 8-4.
Chicago's Cubs came from behind
twice to sweep a twin bill from
Pittsburgh 7-4 and 4-1.
In a wild double-header marred
tv a free-for-all, the Detroit Tigers
took two from Philadelphia's Ath
letics 14-3 and 2-1 and wrested !
fourth place from the Red Sox ay
one percentage point. Baltimore,
iresh from 16 losses in Its last 17
games, surprised Washington with
8-4 and 5-0 victoiies.
In Boston. Bob Lemmon scattered
eight hits in the opener lor Cleve
land. It was his 11th straight vic
tory and made him the majors'
first 20-game winner. He and team
mate Bob Feller are the only ac
tive six-time 20-game winners. ,
Until the sixth, when the Indians
eiupted lor three runs on homers
by Larry Doby (No. 29 1 and Vic
Wertz (No. 10), Lemon was hooked
up in a 2-2 pitching duel with
rookie Tom Brewer. Wertz hit
