4TH SPOT

(By Associated Press)
The Oakland oldsters may be
slowing up a bit as summer wanes,
but they weren’t slow enough ybs
.erday for Los Angeles to catch.
Beginning the final series of the
season, Oakland swe^t a double
header, 7-5 and 4-3, irom Los An
geles.
Elsewhere in the League:
Portland split a double header,
losing the first game to Seattle 10
to 0, winning the second 9 -2.
San Francisco took two straight
from Hollywood, 6-2 and 5-4.
San Diego shared honors with
Sacramento, dropping the first 1 to
3 and taking the second 3-1.
' The Oaks fattened their lead with
the double-barreled win, edging
their victory total almost up to the
century mark. Second place San
Diego, with only one win in the
day’s play, dropped five games be
hind.
At Los Angeles, the opener was a
5-5 deadlock in the ninth but visit
ing Oakland scored twice after two
were out. In the nightcap the Angels
had runners on first and second
with nobody out in the final frame
but failed to cash in.
At San Francisco, Con Dempsey
pitched a tight four hitter to give
the Seals the first game. The second,
a seven-inning affair, was tied in
the final frame and Jim Moran
broke it up with a single to center
field with the bases loaded.
At Portland the second game was
called at the end of the eighth be
cause of curfew, but it was scarcely
a contest. Portland, after losing the
first, was way out in front with a
seven run lead when the whistle
blew.

PHILLIES
HEAD FOR
FLAG WIH
(By Associated Press)
J
[ The flashy Phillies appeared a
! shoo-in today to capture their first
! flag in 35 years. However, it might
j have been the same old Philadelphia
j story had pitchers Jim Hearn join
| ed the New York Giants earlier and
had Sal Maglie been given starting
assignments sooner.
Actually the Giants have fared
better than the Phils since Hearn
and Maglie became full-fledged
members of the New York's "Big
Four." In the past seven weeks
the Leo Durocher’s men have won
34 games while losing 17. During
the same stretch, the Phils have
I won 33 and lost the same number.
| Off to a ragged start, the Giants
today were no better than fourth
I place, 101- games behind the Phils.
Eddie Sawyer’s youthful league
.eaders, playing consistent baseball
all the way, hold a seven game
bulge over the runnerup Brooklyn
Dodgers with but 25 games left to
play.
Except for a 3-2 loss by Hearn
to Boston on Aug. 9, the Giants’
.wo new pitching aces have achieved
perfect records since becoming
starters. Maglie has won all his
nine starts. Hearn has won eight
cf nine.
The duo didn’t yield a run yes
terday as they hurled the Giants to
a double shutout over the Phils, 2-0
and 9-0. Hearn gave up only five
hits and Maglie nine.
I Despite their double loss, the Phils
j didn’t lose an inch of ground as the
I Dodgers bowed in both ends of their
! Labor Day doubleheader to the
Braves in Boston, 11-4 and 3-2.
The Cincinnati Reds moved to
within one percentage point of sixth
place dow’ning the fading St. Louis
Cardinals twice, 5-4 and 8-4. Pitts
| burgh’s rejuvenated Pirates whipped
, the Chicago Cubs twice, 5-3 and 3-0.
American League
The American League race re
mained unchanged as all clubs di
vided doubleheaders.
The New York Yankees split with
Philadelphia, winning the opener,
2-1 .but losing the second, 4-3. The
Detroit Tigers won the first game,
4-2, but lost the second, 5-4 to the
St. Louis Browns. The Yanks thus
stayed two games ahead of the
Tigers.
Boston’s Red Sox remained 3%
games off the pace, splitting a pair
with Washington. The Red Sox won
the opener, 5-4, and Washington
took the second, 5-3. Walt Dropo
cracked two doubles, drove in a run
! and scored two for Boston’s first
game victory.
Cleveland won a 1-0 second game
thriller from Chicago after the
White Sox had taken the first game,
7-1.
John Mize hit his 18th and 19th
homers for the Yanks. His 18th
came in the first game to give Vic
Raschi the nod over the A’s Lou
Brissie.

PREDICTING
WINNERS IN
(OAST GRID
\ _
(By Associated Press)
Footballs are flying through the
air and the daily practice sessions!
are increasing in tempo. Campus
comment has a distinctly gridiron
accent.
The big question already is: which
team will be the big winner in the
Pacific Coast Conference? Would
you like to know? So would I.
As an early pre-season service
to the fans, we offer a snap tally j
of some of the experts, the coaches, j
It is incomplete but interesting.
Head man Lynn "Pappy” Waldorf i
of California, who put his last two
teams into the Rose Bowl, was too
cagey to make an outright selec-1
tion. But his big staff of assistance 1
came through handsomely. i
They went all the way down the
line. Number I pick of the California I
staff, excluding Waldorf as must be!
emphasized, is Southern California, j
They handicap the rest as follows: I
2.—Stanford. 3—Washington. 4—
California. 5 University of California
at Los Angeles. 6—Oregon. 7—Ore
gon State. 8—Washington State. 9—
Idaho.
From now on we wander in the i
state of confusion.
Howard Odell of Washington'
thinks California will be the club j
to beat for the title.
Jeff Cravath of Southern Calif
ornia likes Stanford and California j
in that order.

ONE MOOSE
DOWN; ONE
IN ESCAPE
FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Sept. 5—UP)
—The moose hunting season was
over in a hurry for a Fairbanks
nimrod Friday.
One hour and a half from the
time John Stahler and his wife
started down the Chena River in
a 30-foot boat he had bagged his
one moose limit and had been
charged by a second animal.
Stahler said he and his wife
stopped along the river bank to
make some coffee. About three
minutes after they climbed out of
the boat two bull moose appeared
on the opposite bank.
Stahler climbed into the boat
crossed the river and shot one ol
the moose. The second animal, in
stead of running away charged the
boat. When he was within 10 feet
of the craft Stahler fired one shot
over the animal’s head.
The animal stopped, reared and,
crashed away into the forest.

ANOTHER PUNT, MAKING
FOUR, ON TURNER LAKE;
WILL MARK CHANNEL
Forest Service crews have assem- !
bled another 16 foot punt at Turner j
Lake, popular recreation and fish- |
lng spot on Taku Inlet. This brings j
to three the number of boats placed
at Turner Lake by the Forest Ser
vice for the use of the public.
Next summer, the Forest Service |
plans to mark the channel in to
the Turner Lake Trail with can
buoys, according to District Forest
Ranger Mai Hardy, It is hoped
this will enable fishermen to reach
the beach with a minimum of'
difficulty when the water is so
high that it is impossible to see'
the channel.
