There have been many great match races, but seldom, if ever, have two such brilliant 3-year-olds come up In the same year. Not only are sophomore racing honors at stake but also recogni tion as Horse of the Year. Both colts are considered by their trainers to be in peak form for the flOO.000 winner-take-all race. The weatherman forecast fair and cooler weather. The showdown on Washington Park's manicured dirt oval is ex pected to draw about 35.000 fans. Latest odds list Swaps at 2-5 and Nashua 9-5.

Beaver Misses No-Hitter By DON TIIACKREY United Press Sports Writer Even Earl Rapp must be sorry he cut so hard at a Red Adams pitch in the eighth inning of a Pa cific Coast League game between Portland and San Diego last night. Rapp, clouting at a tremendous pace as the league's leading run-driver-in, swung hard at one of the balls Adams threw. As a re sult he boosted his home run to tal, upped his RBI mark by one snd robbed Adams of a no hitter. The only hit the ancient Adams 'gave up was Rapp's eighth Inning homer and that amounted to noih-' ing as Portland already had. four runs in the make-up game and won It 4-1. In another game of some impor tance in the league Hollywood downed Los Angeles 3-2 and moved into a virtual tie with Se attle for the loop lead. The Stars now trail the Rainiers by a single percentage point. Rapp ruined a splendid effort by Adams, who fanned six and walked only one as the Padres had only one man left on base. Jim Robertson, Portland catch er, hit a home run in the fourth inning with none on as the Bea vers clouted Bill Thomason for a dozen hits and the victory. Hollywood scored two runs in the sixth frame to take the win f.-jL-n Los Angeles with Red Mun- iui;iwii u)j 1110 wt mi" est In the league. ., Gale Wade and Steve Bilko hit -homers for the two Los Angeles runs and Munger held the team to three other hits.

Army Makes Changes WEST POINT, N.Y. (UP) Three position changes of first string players from last year marked the opening of Army's 66th football campaign Monday. Coach Red Blaik moved All America end Don Holledcr to quor lerback, to replace the Ineligible Pete Vann, and shifted guards Ralph Chesnauskas and Flay : Goodwin to tackle. Blaik said the current squad is one of the young ' est in Army history, averaging 19 years in age. DELUXE MAUSER RIFLE 270 and 30-06 Cal.

Arcaro will ride Nashua, and Shoemaker will be aboard Swaps. The winner will receive the usual 10 per cent, or $10,000 in this case. The loser presumably will get his customary riding fee. CALIFORNIA-BRED Also, the race has an East vs. West flavor. Swaps, owned by Rex C. Ellsworth, is a California-bred son of Khaled. Nashua was sired by Nasrullah and is owned by William Woodward Jr. of New York. Swaps, who never has been ex tended as a 3-year-old, is unbeaten in eight starts this year. He hand ed Nashua his only setback in nine races, beating him by a length and a half in the Kentucky Derby in 2:ui.B. Since then Nashua has blazed to triumphs in the Preakness. Bel mont, Dwyer and Arlington Classic. Nashua yesterday drew the No. 1 post position, but trainers of both colts were quick to observe that this held little or no advantage. Seixas, Hart Given Rolls As Underdogs FOREST HILLS. N.Y. (UP) Defending champions Vic Seixas and Doris Hart both appeared to be underdogs today as officials prepared to make the draw for the 74th national tennis singles cham pionship, which starts Friday. Seixas, 32-year-old men s cham pion from Philadelphia, seemed to be only a long shot to retain his crown. After a poor season, Seixas took a walloping in two singles matches and one doubles during the Davis Cup series last weekend, which saw the Australians sweep the United States, 5-0 Lew Hoad, blond strong' man of the Aussie crew, seemed to be a' hot courtside favorite to win the crown with cup teammates Ken Rosewall and Rex Hartwig also drawing many supporters. Tony Trabert, 25-year-old Wim bledon champion from Cincinnati, Ohio, who won the title here in 1953, was the only American given a chance to stop the Aussies. And Trabert, beaten by Hoad in one cup match and withdrawn from an other because of blisters on his racquet hand, was strictly a ques tion mark. Seixas figured as the No. 2 U.S. hope with Ham Richardson of Bat on Rouge. La., who lost a cup singles match to Rosewall, the third.

(UP) Rocky Marciano took a brief rest from training for his Sept. 20 heavyweight title defense Monday for a visit from his two and one-halfyear-old daughter Mary Ann. Marciano's wife and daughter will remain at the training camp through Thursday. NORTH ADAMS, Mass. (UP) Archie Moore, who challenges Rocky Marciano for the heavy weight crown Sept. 20, said Mon day Racky had "sort touches," his last two fights "but when he meets me. the honeymoon will be over." Moore said there was "no. rea son" for the second Marciano-Ez-zard Charles fight "after he had punched Ezz lopsided in their first fight" and he called the Marciano Don Cockell fight "a mismatch."

The performance of Pirate hurl ers has been one of the few "rays of sunshine" that Manager Fred Haney has seen this season. Pirate pitchers set the best pace for longevity in the majors this season by going the distance in six consecutive games. Elroy Face, a fork ball specialist was the first and last hurler on the string. The diminutive righthander start ed the cycle July 22, beating the Chicago Cubs 3-1 on seven hits. The route pattern was maintained successively by Bob Friend, Dick Hall, Vernon Law and Dick Little field. Face completed the string July 26. HURLING STAFF Law, the champ of the hurling staff with a 10-8 record, went the distance eiht times in recording victories. He was lifted for a pinchhltter when he won his other two games. The righthander who is an or dained Mormon minister, pitched three four-hit games among his victories including a 2-0 shutout over the- Braves Sunday. The whitewash Sunday provided some balm for the righthander who went 18 innings against the Braves July 19 but did not get credit for the victory. Bob Friend, who pitched the 19th and last in ning, was the winner although he acknowledged "Vernon should have this one." Friend (9-8) has won five of seven games In which he went the distance and Face (4-4) went the route each time he won. DURABILITY PROVEN Hall, who made his major league pitching debut with a triumph over the Cubs when he struck out 11 batters, has proved his durabili ty. Hall went the route in three of his four victories. Ron Kline, whose action has been limited because of an injury, went all the way to shut out the New York Giants, 7-0, on seven hits in May and completed his mound duty in beating the Cubs 2-1 on eight hits in June. Bob Purkey went the distance in beating St. Louis Cardinals, 4-1, on four hits and, 5-1, on seven hits before he was sent to New Or leans for more work.
