RAINIER!
WIN OVER
BEAVERS
(By Associated Press)
• The big inning is as potent in
the Pacific Coast League as any
where.
Seattle saved its power for a six
run outburst in the seventh inning
to vanquish Portland, 7-3, last night.
San Diego, employing the strata
gem twice, tallied four in the sixth,
then four more in the last of the
ninth to defeat Sacramento 8-4.
Otherwise, the PCL front was less
explosive. San Francisco beat Holly
wood, 4-0, on Chet Johnson’s neat
five-hitter. Oakland maintained its
steady siege-gunning of Los Angeles,
running up an 11-5 victory without j
any splurge larger than three in an
inning.
Seattle broke loose to give Jim
Wilson his 23rd win after being
held to two hits in six innings by
Bob Drilling. The Portland rookie
came apart, however, as the Rain
ieVs banged out five hits and Jim
jooy Gladd committed a costly er
ror in the fatal seventh.
Wilson himself capped the rally
with a two-run homer. Big Jim
fanned 10 batters and finished
stong after the Beavers touched him
for all their' runs in the fifth.

WHIZ KIDS
WINNERS IN
1 OF FOUR
(By Associated Press)
Eddie Sawyer and his Philadelphia '
Whiz Kids are looking forward to- j
day to smoother sailing.
The youthful pennant seekers |
have had quite a scare the past 1
few7 days but thanks to a couple I
of old hands, Russ Meyer and Ed j
Waitkus, the Phils once again en- I
joy a commanding 5'a game lead
in the National League race.
Meyer and Waitkus teamed up to 1
end a fivp-game losing streak and I
give the Phils a 4-3 victory over the j
runner-up Brooklyn Dodgers last
night in the finale of a four-game j
series. Brooklyn won the first three I
games.
Meyer restricted the Dodgers to
six hits and led all the way. His
worst moment came in the eighth
inning when Duke Snider smacked
a two-run homer to cut the Phils j
lead to one run. But Meyer bore j
down and retired the last four bat- |
ters in succession. The victory was ,
Meyer’s eighth compared to 11 losses j
and his third over Brooklyn.
Waitkus, the 30-year-old first
baseman, slammed out two singles
and a double, drove in two runs
and sparkled afield.
Giants Turned Back
The Braves, seven games behind, j
turned back the fourth-place New
York Giants, 4-3, on a three run
homer by Tommy Holmes in the I
seventh inning. Warren Spahn went s
the distance to gain his 18th victory.
Jim Hearn was the loser.
A scheduled twi-night double- i
header between Chicago and Cin- 1
cinnati and a night game between j
Pittsburgh and St. Louis were rained
out.
American League
In the American League, Detroit
crawled a half-game ahead of the!
runner-up New York Yankees in
the tight American League flag bat
tle. The Tigers edged the White
Sox, 3-2 in a night game at Chicago, j
The Yanks and third-place Boston
Red Sox were idle. i
Vic Wertz singled home Don Koi- j
loway with the Tigers’ winning run
in the ninth inning to give veteran ,
Dizzy Trout his 12th victory. Lefty |
Bob Cain was the loser. I
The St. Louis Browns just about
knocked the Cleveland Indians out j
of contention by taking a twi-night 1
doubleheader, 5-4 and 6-0. The de- .
feats dumped the fourth-place In- !
dians 5% games behind. i
Don Johnson, a former Yankee,
blanked the Indians on seven hits '
in the finale in outpitching 20-game
w'inner Bob Lemon.
Rookie Julio Moreno made his ma
jor league debut and pitched the
Washington Senators to a 10-4 vie- ,
tory over the Philadelphai Athletics. I
B.B. STARS
Stars of big league games Friday J
are:
1 Pitching: Russ Meyer, Phils—,

Feathers
—
NEW YORK, Sept. 9—UP)—'The
surprise windup of the Willie Pep-,
Sandy Saddler fight gave Saddler
the featherweight championship
gnd Pep a dislocated left shoulder,
but it still didn't answer the No. 1
question: "Who is the better man?'
So today it looks like Wily Willie
and Slasher Sandy will have it oul
again for the fourth time nex
Februray at Madison Square Gar- i
den, scene of their first two bouts, j
Matchmaker A1 Weill said the twc,
are signed for a return that month, i
A record crowd and gate for I
featherweights—38,781 fans and'
$262,150—watched in stunned silence i
last night as the skinny, hardhitting j
24-year-old negro was recrowned |
champion of the world while Pep;
sat sadly on his stool in a corner I
of the ring. |
The surprising finish came as the
bell sounded lor the start of tne
eigth round of what had been a1
great scrap so far. Referee Ruby i
Goldstein waved off the onrushing
Saddler and announcer Johnny.
Addie told the puzzled throng that |
Pep had dislocated his left shoulder I
and could not continue. According!
to New York rules it was listed as
an eight-round knockout.
Pep claimed the dislocation was
caused by Saddler’s wrestling tact
ics. Saddler denied it. The shoulder
was reset in the ring by Dr. Vin
cent Nardiello of the State Athletic
Commission. X-rays later showcc
no break.
Each weighed 124pounds.

Follow him on his spirited way
as he pilots this lively motorcar
through traffic. Even the light
weights are no match for this
road-steady husky—not with the
152-horsepower straight-eight
Fireball engine that purrs be
neath its bonnet.
Maneuver beside him at the next
stop light. Then just try to get
away as smoothly, swiftly and
silently as Dynaflow Drive gets
his ROAUMASTER going —and
keeps it rolling without shifting,
even automatically.
But don’t waste time merely en
vying the man in this great car!
Why nut emulate him?
I _
With all its outsize; room, interior
luxury and exterior grace—with
all its front-rank prestige, rare
performance and matchless ride—
a ROADMASTER can be yours for
less than some smaller cars cost.
In fact, even if you had a fortune
to spend, you couldn’t make a
more fortunate buy in the fine-car
field.
So we suggest you try a few
minutes behind the wheel. We’re
confident they will convince you
that ROADMASTER has everything
you could ever ask for in any
motorcar—although your Buick
dealer asks a good bit less for
ROADMASTER than you might pay
for other top-line cars.
