COAST GUARD IN
FIFTH WIN; ELKS
LOSE TIGHT GAME
In the tighest game of the season
that was strictly a pitchers’ duel,
the Elks were defeated last night 4
to 2 in their fourth straight game
by the Coast Guard.
On an overthrow from McClellan
to Houston, Morrison scored in the
last of the first for the first CG
score. Floberg’s single to right field
scored Cope and Scott.
Snow took revenge for one score
in the second with his first home
run of the game. No one was on
base. The Elks ended the inning
with two men on base.
Coming back in the fourth. Snow
worked his second homer over cen
ter field .with no one on. Both times
he was the first man up.
The fourth score for the CG was
tallied in the fourth on an error.
With Wilber’s fly to center field
muffed, Kane scored from first. Wil
ber stretched the error to third base
and would have come on home if
his ankle, hurt in a previous game,
had been in better shape.
The surprise play of the game
came in the last of the sixth with
Snow' making a double play unas
sisted. Catching Niece’s fly, Snow
dropped back on to first base to
catch Kane.
The Elks had chances in the last
two innings to tie up the game.
With a man on first and second
in the sixth frame, the last two at
bat struck out. Again in the seventh
there were runners on, this time on
second and third. One man struck
out, another put out at third and
the third out was made at first.

The shutout belonged to Ben
Wade of the Hollywood Stars, whc
chucked a six hitter in blanking
San Francisco, 2-0. It was the first
loss in five starts for the last place
Seals.
Klieman came on with one out
and the bases loaded in the ninth
inning of Sacramento’s game at San
Diego. Starter Bob Gillespie had
left him with an 8-5 lead, and the
Padres got two runs across before
Klieman retired the side via a pair
of grounders. The Solons main
tained their half game lead by win
ning, 8-7.
Second place Seattle broke out of
a 4-4 tie in the eighth inning on a
home run by Walt Judnich and
went on to defeat Portland, 7-4.
George Vico drilled a three-run
round tripper for the Rainiers.
Oakland stayed in fourth place,
three games off the pace, with a
4-1 victory over Los Angeles.
Portland sent in four pitchers and
Seattle two, with Harold Brown
called in to relieve Seattle’s Steve
Nagy in the seventh, quelling a
late Beaver uprising.
Leo Thomas and Joe Brovia hom

"WAIVER WAIF" IN
GOOD FORM; WINS
FOR CHKAGO SOX
By Associated Press
Fritz Dorish is the latest “waiver
waif" to burst out as a shutout
starter for the incredible Chicago
White Sox.
Paul Richards has a new trick
every day in'the greatest slight-of
hand job since Thurston sawed his
ast woman in two. And the end is
rot in sight. You wouldn’t be too
surprised if he pitched Catcher Gus
Niarhos against the Yankees and
tot away with it.
He yanked Dorish out of the hat
,’esterday — his first start after nine
.‘.urns in the bullpent. But what need
has Richards for a bullpen? His
starters go the route every day
This was the Sox’ 24th complete
pitching job.
Dorish first cluttered up the bo)
scores at Boston in 1947. Last yeai
the St. Louis Browns grabbed hin
for $10,000. As a reward for a 6.9!
earned run average even the Brown
ies let him go. He was on the To
ronto roster when the White So:
drafted him.
Dorish’s neat five-hitter against
Washington. 5-0, was Chicago’s sixth
shutout and 20th win in the last
22 stars. No wonder they lead th<
American League by a robust 4H
game margin.
Nine Hit Attack
The Sox confused the Senator.1
with their amazing speed and dar
ing behind a nine-hit attack. Steal
ing three bases in six attempts
they gave Julio Moreno, Joe Haynes
and Sandy Consuegra the jitters.
It was the Sox' sixth straight on
their new string.
The Yankees barely averted an
other disaster in St. Louis, rally
ing with three in the ninth to pull
out a 7-5 decision. The result left
the world champs 4'- games behind
Chicago as they move into Comiskey
Park for a four-game set.
Bobby Brown’s double tied the
score in the ninth and Ralph Houk
won it with a two-run single.
Boston Beats Detroit
Boston snapped its five-game los
ing streak at Detroit., 5-3, as Dom
DiMaggio kept his 27-game hitting
streak alive and won the game with
j one blow. Dom singled to left with
| the bases full and the score tied
in the eighth to hang the loss on
Ted Gray.
Big Luke Easter led Cleveland
back on the win path after two de
feats with a three-run homer for a
6-3 edge over Philadelphia.
While the star-dusted White Sox
stole the headlines, Brooklyn quietly
piled up a 6’i- game lead in the Na
tional. At the rate they’re going
they may sew it up by Labor Day.
No waiver pitchers. No unknowns
busting down fences. Just the same
professionals who did it in ’47 and
’49 may do it again.
Preacher Roe, the Brook’s meal
ticket, skinned home with another
one-run win, 2-1, over St. Louis. It
was his eighth straight of an un
beanten season and fifth by one
run.
The enterprising Cincinnati Reds
knocked off New York again, 3-4,
to move into a second place tie with
St. Louis.
Bubba Chur«h pitched the Phils
to a 7-1 romp over Chicago.
Vern Bickford kept six Pittsburgh
hits scattered in earning his eighth
win for the Boston Braves, 5-0.
