The Padres downed the { Solons, 6 to 1, to fatten their leader- | ship by a full game, and materially decrease Sacramento’s chance of re- gaining first place by the end . of the present seven-game series. San Francisco and’Portland held their own; the Seals hanging in the first division by a seven to three win over the Oaks, while the Ducks meted out a similar dish to the Mis- | sions to hold onto fifth spot. The battle at Los Angeles between the third-place Angels' and the next-to-bottom Seattle Indians was rained -out. | | | N | He GETS HIS SHARE OF HITES — WIS 3/6 AVERIGE] FOR /936 VWAS NOT.

PR — RICHBERG’S VIEW Perhaps Donald R. Richberg, for- mer oounsel' for that battered old NRA eagle, turned his case as near- ly as anybody.else when he, said: “Now it may be that, to maintain a fair competition in modern indus- try and trade, and to protect em- ployers and workers against unfair labor competition, our government will be forced eventually into ex- erting further controls over wages and prices. “But when we do go beyond the prevention of what is clearly wrong, into the establishment of what we think is right, we will assume re- sponsibility not simply for the fair- ness of competition, but for the| fairness of the results. That means, not merely regulating competition but eliminating competition, as the regulator of wages for the worker and prices for the consumer.” — -, — GOMEL TAKES 0UT SORROWS ON SENATORS | Yank Soulh_p:;v Ace Hears of Mother’s Death Just | Before Hurling Shutout (By Associated Press) Just after being told that- his the hill yesterday and turned in a three-hit, eight ta nothing, shutout in the series-opener against the Senators. “ The win was Gomez' fourteenth yictory of the year.
