C. L. Standings L0S ANGELES | (By Associated Press) San Diego is back again at the| top of the Pacific Coast League | standings partly because the boL-‘{ tom placed Portland club came ‘o life and slaughtered Los Angeles last night. The defeat set the Los An-| geles club into second place, tied | with San Francisco. 1 An eight run rally in the fifth inning was the high spot in Port- Jand’s uprising against Los Angeles. | Dominick Di Maggio, brotner of the famous Joe, won the Seals’ first game from the Indians yes-| terday when he smashed out a two bagger to send in the winning run. Freddie Muller clinced the nightcap for Seattle by a homer with two men on bases. HUBBELL BACK AGAIN Carl Hubbell picked up where he left off last year as the New York Giants downed Boston yesterday af- ternoon. Hubbell's screw-ball did everything but sit-up and laugh in Boston’s face. George Caster, of the Philadelphia Athletics, limited Washington to four hits and with the help of Bob! Johnson’s homer, beat the Sena- tors yesterday afternoon. GAMES FRIDAY | Pacific Coast League i San Diego 9; Sacramento 8. Oakland 3; Missions 2. San Francisco 3, 1; Seattle 2, 5.

There are very few things I do understand about the business. For example: Pedro Montanez, a | fighting little demon from Puerto Rico, soundly thrashes the world lightweight champion, Lou Ambers, | in a ten round bout and wins the decision of the referee and judges. Does that make Pedro champion? It does not. It seems Ambers is only the light weight king . when he weighs 135 pounds or less. No one weighing {of a barber.

He’s Legal Montanez is supposed to be a legitimate lightweight, just as 1s Ambers. Then why not let ‘'em fight as lightweights, we wondered. Just why did the lads fight at all? It was pointed out that Mon- tanez was fighting for a chance at the title. He had to beat the cham- pion in a non-title bout to prove fhis right to a championship affair., In other words it was not for keeps this time. The real thing will be saved for a later date. Out- doors, perhaps, where larger gates are possible. Isn't that cute? It was the Puerto Rican’s 28th straight victory. The globe-trot- ting Puerto Rican has seen more than a little of this big world. He bas fought in South America, the United States, France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland and, of course, in Puer- to Rico. He was just a youngster when, together with five other boys in- cluding Sixto Escobar, he began his traveling under the guiding hand The first stop was Venezuela, where Pedro won the lightweight championship of that country.
