RAINERS
LOSE OUT,
5 ERRORS
By HERB WILHOIT
(Associated Press Sportswriter)
Look up and down the Pacific
Coast League today and you’ll find
the excitement In Portland.
There the busy Beavers are chew
ing away at the barrier between
their sixth place spot and the extra
cash they’ll earn if they climb intc
the first division.
And if the Beavers continue theii
winning streak, now 11 straight
games, it’ll be hard to keep 'em out
of the top four. San Franciscc
couldn’t stop them last night, Port
land winning two abbreviatec
games, 4-3 in seven innings anc
5-0 in the nightcap called after six
innings by the league curfew rule.
That cavorting left Portland onlj
a game behind fifth place San Fran
cisco, two back of fourth-place Se
attle and five in arrears to thiro
place Hollywood.
Other results: Oakland shavec
Sacramento 3-2 in a 10-inning daj
game: San Diego trimmed the fad
ing Hollywood Stars 7-5, and Lo:
Angeles smacked Seattle 8-3.
The powerful bat of Oakland':
Earl Rapp won again for the league
leaders. He swatted his 21st homei
in the 10th for the victory. He ha:
now hit in 18 consecutive games
Sacramento’s Marv Williams hac
tied the count with a homer in the
ninth.
Five Seattle errors practicallj
handed their game to Los Angeles
The Angels counted all their run:
off starter Skinny Brown. He wa:
relieved in the seventh by Dewej
Soriano, righthander purchased Iasi
night by Seattle to strengthen the
Rainiers’ bid for a first divisior.
spot. Soriano has been President and
occasional pitcher of the Yakims
club in the Western Internationa
League where he won pennants the
last two years.

TIGERS MAY
EDGE UP TO
BIG SERIES
(By the- Associated Press)
The final chapter of the Ameri- j
can League pennant race opens to- :
day and, like a good “who-run-it,” j
the solution is anybody's guess. |
Of the three contenders, the sec- j
ond place Detroit Tigers appear to
be in the best position to take j
charge.
The Tigers play single games to- !
day and tomorrow while the league
leading New York Yankees and the
third-place Boston Red Sox are
die. Victories in both of these games
will put the Tigers in first place.
In addition, the Tigers have an- j
sther advantage as four of the Red '
Sox and Yanks’ 10 remaining games!
ire against each other. They start
,o knock each other off in the
1'ankee Stadium Saturday while the
Tigers are in Cleveland.
The Tigers entertain the Phila-!
ielphia Athletics today with Fred- !
lie Hutchinson pitching against j
ittle Bobby Shantz. The Tigers then
r.ove to Cleveland where they take
m the Indians in the opener of a :
hree game series tomorrow night, i
Here’s the pictitre at a glance:

Detroit kept close on the heels of
The Yanks yesterday by nosing out;
the Philadelphia Athletics, 6-5. The
New Yorkers turned back the Chi- j
cago White Sox, 8-1. The Red Sox, I
however, suffered a severe jolt ns j
they dropped a doubleheader to the j
Cleveland Indians, 6-3 and 7-1.
The Tigers had a rough time be
fore the A’s succumbed. They trailed
by 5-4 until the eighth, when they |
won the game with a two-run
splurge against Bob Hooper.
Ed Ford, 21-year-old rookie left- !
hander, stopped the White Sox on
three hits in hanging up his eighth
victory without a loss for the Yan
kees. The victors clubbed Ray Scar
borough and two relief pitchers for
11 hits.
Bob Lemon and Early Wynn
cooled off the Red Sox, who had won
27 of their previous 32 games. Lemon
scattered seven hits in bagging his
21st victory in the opener. Wynn
allowed only five in posting his
17th triumph in the finale.
The Washington Senators
swamped the St. Louis Browns, 12-7,
in the lone American League night
game.
The Philadelphia Phillies, mean
while, moved a step closer toward
winning the National League pen
nant. The Phils defeated the Chi
cago Cubs, 9-6, to pull 71* games
ahead of the Boston Braves and the
Brooklyn Dodgers. The Braves
dropped into a second place tie with
the Dodgers by losing a 1-0 night
game to the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Dodgers dumped the Pittsburgh
Pirates, 7-2.
Two home runs by Mixie Goliat
and another neat relief stint by
old reliable Jim Konstanty featured
the Phillies’ victory.
The Cincinnati Reds upset the
New York Giants twice, 4-1 and 2-0
behind Ewell Blackwell and Ken
| Kaffensberger.

DR. ALBRECHT BACK
FROM DEFENSE MEET;
LOCAL SITUATION!
Dr. C. E. Albrecht returned to Ju- j
neau yesterday following a vacation;
in the Interior that was interrupted j
when he was called by the Armed
Forces to help plan for Territorial
civil defense.
Dr. Albrecht is deputy director
for Alaska Civil Defense in charge j
if professional personnel (doctors, I
nurses, dentists, etc.), allocation of i
facilities, procurement and disper
;al of medical supplies in the hand
ing of civilian war casualties.
Dr. Albrecht, indicated his wil
lingness to assist the local Juneau
council in any way possible, but |
wished to emphasize the fact that j
each community must adapt the <
Territorial plan to meet its own
pecific needs.
He stated that, although Juneau j
night be in a relatively protected !
.pot, the full potentialities of a'.l
\spects of modern warfare might be |
applied in Southeast Alaska.
“Therefore," he said, "it is neces- j
ary that we be prepared for any
eventuality by developing a plan in |
ietail. Much greater protection can ,
oe offered and, should a dreaded j
lisaster occur, many lives can be
aved because we were ready.”
While in the Interior he wa$ en- j
raged in public health work. Much |
emained to be done, primarily in ,
vater and sewage problems for |
apidly expanding communities, he
aid.
He attended the Alaska Medical j
Association meeting at Mt. McKin- j
ey Park last mpnth and said that it
ras a "splendid meeting.” He also j
isited old friends at Palmer, where j
e was stationed during the days j
f the Matanuska Colony there.

Territorial Sportsmen, Inc., and
Lewis MacDonald of Alaska Dept,
cf Fisheries returned to Juneau yes
terday in two Fish and Wildlife
Service planes with the last load of
grayling which will be planted in
local lakes this year.
Due to delay In getting through
red tape in connection with the
operation, cold weather in the At
lin area had driven most of the
grayling into the deep water in the
lakes. However, with the assistance
cl several Canadians Hie local men
were able to obtain several hundred
cf the fish in McDonald Lake and
Fourth of July Creek. Atlhough the
intention was to catch fingerlings,
tame larger graylings were cap
trued, a few as big as 16 inches long.
The fish will be planted in Auk
and Peterson Lakes and a few will
be kept in a holding pen for study.
"We hope to continue this project
next spring under more favorable
conditions,” O'Connor said. "About
52,500 had been allocated by the
Territorial Sportsmen for this pro
ject and due to the splendid coop
eration of the FWS, a small fraction
cf the amount was used.”

ASTORIA, Ore., Sept. 21—(A*l—
Cannery worker of the Columbia
River Salmon and Tuna Packers
Association are going to get a 7 to
10 per cent wage boost Oct. 1 to

is challenged by the new group.
Both unions had filed pay boost
demands previously, pending the
voting.
