"SECRET GARDEN"
MYSTERY DRAMA,
CAPITOL THEATRE
Frances Hodgson Burnett’s haunt
ingly beautiful story, “The Secret
Garden,” estimated to have been
read by some fifty million readers
since its publication forty years ago,
has at last been brought to the
screen and emerges as one of the
most poignant and touching dramas
to be offered filmgoers in the last
decade.
No little of the gripping impact
and sustained power of this new
M-G-M offering, now on view at
the Capitol Theatre, is due its cast
ing.
The talented child actress, Mar
garet O’Brien, enacts the central
figure of the stubborn and imperious
girl whose character undergoes a
remarkable change when she enters
a world of beauty and imagination
opened by a wondrous secret garden.
This gifted young performer rises
to new stature with a performance
that holds you in its Spell from
the moment that little Mary arrives
from India to make her home with
her embittered and melancholic
uncle; through the suspense-laden
episodes in which she penetrates the
terror-ridden house and finds one
of its victims to be the crippled
child, Colin; to the final breath
taking climax in which she aids the
boy to free himself from the bond
age of his tormented father.

RAINIER! PURCHASE
PITCHER SCHANZ
SACRAMENTO, Calif,, July 17—
(if)—The Seattle Rainiers announce
the purchase of pitcher Charlie
Schanz, the man most sought to
bolster the club’s pennant drive in
the Pacific Coast baseball league.
Earl Sheely, Rainier General
Manager here for tonight’s All-Star
Coast League game, made the an
nouncement.
The 31-year-old Schanz, a main
stay of the Rainier pitching staff
last year, was drafted by the Boston
Red Sox, The Red Sox in turn
sold him to the St. Louis Browns
but he refused to report.
GAMES TODAY
BOSTON, July 17—(if)—A1 Rosen
hit No. 26 to take over the major
league home run lead as the Cleve
land Indians outslugged the Boston
Red Sox, 11-6, today in the first
half of a day-night doubleheader.
Joe Gordon, who also homered,
sparked the Indians’ 12-hit attack
with a perfect five-for-five batting
performance. The Bosox’ Junior
Stephens bashed his 22nd homer,
with one on, to assume the runs
batted-in parade with a 92 total.
NEBRASKA RAINS
FOLLOW TORNADOES
OMAHA. July 17—(if)—Nebraskans,
who seldom get done mopping up
in the wake of weather violence,
were at it again today.
Two tornadoes ripped across sec
tions of rural Nebraska late Satur
day. On their heels came drench
ing rains and hail.
The rain, of which there was
nearly five inches in places, de
luged the east central Nebraska
area near York where just a week
before 13 Inches of rain brought
death-dealing floods.
WILSON PITCHES
RAINIER! TO WIN;
REMAINS, 3RD SPOT
By JIM HUBBABT
(Associated Press Sportswriter)
James Alger Wilson, the hottest
pitching article in the Pacific Coast
League since Frank Browning won
16 straight in 1909, evidently will
not do much pitching in tonight’s
annual All-Star game.
And if League President Clarence
Rowland doesn’t convoy his chagrin
to Seattle Manager Paul Richards,
the other pilots in the league will
be disappointed, to say the least.
Richards went ahead and pitched
Wilson against San Diego yesterday
in the face of a request by Rowland
that the 15-game winner be fresh
for duty for the All-Star contest at
Sacramento.
A similar request went to San
Francisco Manager Lefty O'Doul for
his ace, A1 Lien. O'Doul complied.
Wilson pitched, though. Richards
had obvious reasons. First, he needed
that 2 to 1 victory Wilson’s four hit
ter achieved to stay in third place
ahead of the Padres. Second, Big
Jim’s charmed arm could mean a
pennant for Seattle. Why risk its
injury in an All-Star game that
never has caught on with PCL fans?
Wilson’s triumph in the seven in
ning game was his 15th in a row.
But his string of scoreless innings
was snapped at 40, six under the
record. San Diego won the first
game of the twin bill, 5 to 2.
The rest of Sunday's double
headers passed without incident.
Oakland kept its three game lead
by splitting with Hollywood and
Los Angeles divided with San Fran
cisco. Portland won twice from Sac
ramento, 4 to 3 in 10 innings and
10 to 9 in seven.
Mickey Rocco’s scratch single
scored Luis Marquez from third to
give Portland the overtime game.
Oakland's 5 to 4 triumph in the
tirst game was achieved in a two
run sixth wherein pitcher Clyde
Shoun and outfielder George Met
kovitch dro’T, nome the deciding
markers.
Hollywood won the second 2 to 1.
Los Angeles edged the Seals, 3 to
2, in their opener with an unearned
tally in the ninth, but succumbed,
10-3, in the nightcap.
ALL-STAR CONTEST
ON COAST TONIGHT
SACRAMENTO, Calif., July 17—j
/Pi — The Pacific Coast League
North-South All Stars play tonight |
in Edmonds Field and if the game
runs true to form the Southerners
will notch their ninth victory in
10 starts.
The game is a benefit for the Na
tional Association of Professional
Baseball Players. The All-Stars were
selected by sports writers in the
Coast League cities.
The Southern team Is composed j
of men from Hollywood, Los An-1
geles, San Diego and San Fran- ;
cisco. Fred Haney of Hollywood
will manage the Southerners, with
Del Baker, San Diego manager as
his coach.
Charlie Dressen of Oakland will
manage the Northerners selected
from the Oakland, Sacramento,
Portland and Seattle clubs.
Starting pitchers will be Max
Surkont of Sacramento (14-10) and
San Francisco’s southpaw, A1 Lien,
(13-4).
SUNDAY GAME CALLED
OFF AS GROUNDS WET
The Sunday game in the Gasti
neau Channel league between the
Elks and Coast Guard was called
off after two and one half innings
because of ground condition owing
to the drizzle, with the Elks leading
by 4 to 0. The game will be played
on the first permissible open date,
except Saturdays.
The game tonight between the
Elks and Moose will also probably
be called off by drizzle and wet
grounds.

HOME RUNS PLAYl
BIG, SUNDAY GAMES
IN MAJOR LEAGUES
(By the Associated Press)
About that lively ball, now, here's
the dope right from the Sunday
box scores: the appalling one day
total—37 home runs, 337 base hits,
188 runs: 08 beat up pitchers in 15
games.
Rabbit? Better make it kangaroo.
No bunny can jump that high, that
often.
Out in Pittsburgh a little guy
named Ted Beard who hit .277 for
Indianapolis last year, hit one over
the right field stands. Nobody had
done that since Babe Ruth in 1935.
Walt Dropo, man-mountain Bos
ton Red Sox rookie lashed three
home runs and two doubles in a
, doubleheader. Duke Snider of
Brooklyn went 5 for 5 against the
St. Louis Cardinals. One of the
Duke’s hits was a homer.
The New York Giants and Cin
cinnati slashed away at one another
for a total of 58 hits including 12
homers in a long, weary afternoon.
No less than 53 hits splattered
off the walls of Fenway Park where
Cleveland and the Boston Red Sox
divided a doubleheader.
One Shutout
By some peculiar combination of
events there was one shutout. But
Walt Dubiel of the Cubs kept in
tune with the times by making it
a perilous nine-hitter.
Dubiel's shutout was a bitter blow
at the Philadelphia Phillies. Barely
escaping St. Louis Saturday in a
first-place tie, the Phillies dropped
two to the Cubs and fell into sec
ond place. Dubiel did his stuff in
the 8-0 first game when the Cubs
chased Russ Meyer with six runs in
the seventh inning. In the second j
game, the Cubs ended rookie Bob I
Miller’s eight-game win streak with
a f0-3 wallop.
Brooklyn pounded four Cardinal
pitchers for 19 hits, 10-2, as rookie
Chris Van Cuyk coasted home in his
major league debut.
Boston missed a chance to close in
on the leaders by losing the second
game to Pittsburgh, 6-5, after tak
ing the opener, 9-5, for Vern Bick
ford’s 10th win.
One Error—Game Lost
Hank Thompson's error on Bobby
Usher’s grounder with the bases
loaded in the 12th gave Cincinnati
an 11-10 win over the Giants and
a clean sweep of the home run bat
tles. The Reds took the opener,
16-4.
Everybody split in the American
League, leaving Detroit with its
four-game lead over the New York
Yankees.
Homers by George Kell, Hoot
Evers and Jerry Priddy enabled the
Tigers to take a second game from
Philadelphia, 7-6, after the A’s j
whipped Art Houtteman, 5-2, in j
the first.
Just when the Yanks were ready (
to move in on the Tigers, Bob Cain,
a 1950 New York hoodoo stopped
them. Cain, who owns only six wins,
beat the Yanks for the third time.
5-2, in the second game. Gene
Woodling’s two-run double won the
first, 2-1.
Dropo hit two homers in Boston’s
13-10 opening victory over Cleve
land and added another. No. 22, in
the second game which the Sox
lost, 8-4.
Sid Hudson limited St. Louis to
seven hits for a 5-1 Washington
victory in the first game but six
Senators couldn’t stop the Brownies
who earned an even break with a
10-8 verdict, in the nightcap.
