Philadelphia Dumps
Red Sox to Make Pennant
Battle Two-Way Affair
By the Associated Press
It’s lucky for New York and Cleve
land they have so few games left
to play against the Philadelphia
Athletics.
Thanks to Jimmy Dykes’ animated
A’s.^the American League race, for
the time being at least, has become
a two-team battle between the front
running Yankees and the runnerup
Indians.
Boston’s third-place Red Sox,
hot on the heels of the leaders for
months, saw their pennant hopes
all hut shattered yesterday when
the seventh-place Athletics drub
bed them in a doubleheader, 10-4,
and 3-3.
The double defeat dropped the
Red Sox five and a half games be
hind the Yankees and Indians. The
Sox have 20 games remaining to 19
for the Yankees and 15 for the In
dians. Fortunately, Boston has no
more games with the Athletics who
are scheduled to face the Indians
two more ti^nes and the Yankees
once.
The Yankees increased their slim
first-place margin to four percent
age points over the Tribe by sweep
ing a pair from Washington, 7-5 and
2-0. Cleveland also won, 4-3, from the
St. Louis Brow'ns.
The New York Giants kept their
flickering pennant hopes alive in
the National League race, de
feating the Brooklyn Dodgers. 2-1.
to climb hack within five and a
half games of the lead. The St.
Louis Cardinals entrenched their
hold on third place with a pair
of triumphs over Pittsburgh, 2-1,
in 10 innings, and 7-4.
Boston’s Braves trounced Phila
delphia’s Phils twice in their battle
for fourth place, 5-4 and 4-1. Chi
cago’s Cubs emerged from the cellar
splitting a doublcheader with Cin
cinnati. The Reds won the second
game, 7-0, after the Cubs had cap
tured the opener, 7-3.
Chicago’s White Sox edged out
Detroit, 4-J, in a game that had no
bearing on the American League
race.
The Red Sox, who had prev
iously whipped the A’s 15 times
in 20 games, were beaten with
their own weapon—the home run.
A three-run homer by Eddie .loost
snapped a 4-4 lie and sparked
the A’s to a six-run eighth inning
that won the opener.

All that remains of the Pacific
Coast League baseball season to
day is the Governor's Cup playoff
and a small matter of about $30,000
to be divided among the four prin
cipals.
The 1951 campaign closed officially
yesterday with a program of double
headers that produced only one
noteworthy change in the status
quo, to wit:
The San Francisco Seals finish
ed up in the cellar after all.
The playoff starts Tuesday with
second place Hollywood entertain
ing fourth place Portland and the
pennant club, Seattle, playing
host to Los Angeles.
The money breakdown, based on
an incomplete audit of gate receipt:
for the season, figures out something
like this:'
$10,000 to Seattle for winning the
championship.
$10,000 to the playoff winner.
$5,000 to the playoff runner-up.
$2,500 each to the first round los
ers in the playoff.
In other words, the Itainiers
would pocket $20,000 by winning
the playoff—two thirds of the kit
ty—and if past performances are
any indication, they're liable to
do just that. In the nine playoffs
they have participated in, the
Itainiers have won 44 games and
lost 40, high for the league.
Now, for the record, here’s how
the clubs fared on the last day of
the season:
San Diego walloped Hollywood in
a pair of extra inning games. 13-8
and 1-0; Sacramento beat San Fran
cisco, 10-4 and 4-3, to wind up in
seventh place; Oakland dispatched
Portland, 5-3 and 7-3, and Seattle
split with Los Angeles.
It took Seattle 10 innings to beat
Los Angelo , 8-7, in the opener and
snap a three game losing streak.
Catcher Joe Erautt's two run single
in the last of the tenth did the job.
The Angels took the nightcap, 7-4.
Other standout performers includ
ed Mel Duezabou, with two home
runs for Oakland at Portland, and
Manager Joe Gordon at Sacramento.

Gus Zernial’s 30th circuit clout
with a mate aboard, and another
homer by Dave Philley accounted for
all of Philadelphia's runs in the
nightcap. Little Bobby Shantz hurl
ed a three-hitter to win his 15th
game.
The home run also played a major
role in the Yankee’s double win
over the Senators. They unloosed
five four-baggers for all but one of
their runs in the first game.

Another Reason Why
You’ll Prefer Budweiser
V |l
M0
America grows very fine hops. The choicest of them
go to Budweiser at premium prices. But, imported
blossoms have certain qualities that only the soil
and climate of Europe can produce. In one year, 40
percent of all imported blossoms went to Budweiser.
The blending of finest hops from two continents is
one big reason for the distinctive taste and bouquet
of Budweiser.

INHEUSER-BUSCH, INC. . . . ST. LOUIS!
NEW YORK, Sept. 10—t/?>—Foul
of the nine major college football
conference champions of 1950 stand
to be dethroned in the new sea
son starting this month—if the na
tion’s sports writers and broad
casters know their business.
This was indicated today in a
pre-season, nationwide Associated
Press poll calling upon the pres;
box experts to choose the top 1C
teams for the 1951 pigskin parade
First, let. it be noted the poll
pat Tennessee on top—and more
or less on the spot—as the No. 1
outfit. Gen. Bob Neyland’s vol
unteers get an overwhelming 60
first place votes out of 115 cast,
and a total of 923 points.
This automatically projected Ten
nessee as the Southeastern Confer
ence champion, replacing the 195(
winner, Kentucky.
Ohio State is figured as the new
big 10 Champion, by an overwhelm
ing point total, with Maryland rat
ed the team of championship cal
ibre in the Southern Conference and
Texas A and M the new titlrhpldei
in the Soutfhwest circuit.
The five 1950 conference winners
figured to repeat are Oklahoma,
the nation's No. 1 team last fall,
in the Big Seven: Princeton in the
Ivy League; California in the Pa
cific Coast; Tulsa in the Missouri
Valley loop, and Wyoming in the
Skyline Six.
Michigan State, with 18 first place
votes and a total of 723 points, go!
the nod as the top independent team
in the land. The Snartans were rat
ed No. 2 in the first ten.
Army, its ranks riddled by loss of
most of the squad in the cribbing
scandal, rated a 35th place in the
new poll with only five points.

Husky All-American
Hurt in Scrimmage;
Will Be Out 6 Weeks
SEATTLE, Sept. 10— UH —The
sturdiest limb may be gone but the
tree’s not down. . .
A week ago the University of
Washington football team was load
ed like a mountaineer's rifle. Then
Don Heinrich, All-America quarter
, back and national collegiate passing
i champion, came eff the bottom cf
a pile-up Saturday with an injured
right shoulder.
He’ll be out at least six weeks—
pcssibly all season.
Experts were trampled in the rush
to write Washington off as a threat
for national honors, a Pacific Coast
Conference pennant and a trip to
the Rose Bowl. But head coach
Howie Odell put it this way:
“We ll still be tough.”
Washington has a lew charges
left in its powder bag. Hurryin’
Hugh McElhenny scampered to
new conference rushing records in
1950, gaining 1,107 yards for the
season and 296 in a single game.
When he moves the breeze side
steps him.
Lean Dick Sprague, counted one
of the country’s finest defensive
backs last year, has been switched
to an offensive halfback role and
can match speed with McElhenny.
Bill Early is the cruncher of the
works, big, solid, eager.
With Heinrich gone the empha
sis may shift from offense to de
fense and here the Washington
huskies are rugged and heady.
The opening game here Sept. 22
against Montana probably will find
either junior Sam Mitchell or Soph
omore Dean Hockey making like
Heinrich. Rockey is the better passer
and ball handler, but Mitchell can
run like a rabid rabbit to comple
ment his passing.
Heinrich got a shoulder separa
; tion from his tumble and the most
1 optimistic estimate is that he’ll miss
| the first five games. Odell may elect
: to keep him out all season, savin?
i his last year of eligibility for 1952

next spring . . . and every \
spring . . . the salmon industry takes a \-^n
careful look at samples of its previous
year’s pack. Several hundred cans cf
salmon from Alaska and other districts
are selected at random, the labels removed
and a large group of experienced examiners
carefully judges the food product.
From these annual Salmon Cutting aB
Demonstrations, sponsored by the North
west Branch of the National Canners
Association, canners learn how to improve
their pack. This continuous desire for
improvement is especially important to
Alaska because it is essential that the
Territory’s chief industry keep the quality of
its product high in a very competitive market.
In addition to these "Annual Salmon
Cuttings,” the industry carefully inspects its
product at many stages to be certain that high
standards of purity and quality are maintained.
