FRIDAY, MAY 14, 194 | ALL-STARS BEAT ANGELS HIT ~ ASTCRIA SQUAD; WILL HAFEY; WIN BY 6-5;SnowBring;WinningRuns (By The Associated Press) Oakland’s $100,000 beauty, Will Hafey, was treated like a dime store trinket last night. The Los Angeles Angels, un- awed by Mr. Hafey's recent sale to the Cleveland Indians, jumped on old Chick’s nephew for three runs in the sixth and went on to win, 6-5, to remain exactly three games behind the San Francisco Seals. ‘The Seals made it three straight over Hollywood by edging the Stars, 5:4, in 11 innings. San Diego’s hammerin’ Jack Gra- ham slapped his 17th homer with one mate aboard to pace the Pad- res’ 3-0 victory over Portland. Scuthpaw Al Olson flipped a sev- en-hit shutout. As for Hafey, that muscled righthander was taked to a three- run lead by the Oaks but couldn't hold it as the Angels—led by Jack Sanford’s homer — kept pecking away. Sacrameénto at Seattle again was rained out, and a doubleheader is carded tonight.

The two-hit shutout that Poat threw against the St. Louis Cardi- nals yesterday ktoosted the Giants into the National League lead. Poat, purchased from Baltimore last summer after failing to make the grade with Cleveland, now has won three of four. A single by Enos Slaughter in the second inning and a double by Red Schoendienst in the third were the only St. Louis hits off Poat in his 5-0 win. Voiselle, who underwent an opera- tion for varicose veins during the vinter, blanked Chicago with four 2-0, to leave Boston at the .500 mark.

PHOENIX—Dude prospecting is the latest wrinkle in Arizona gold mining. In the place of the bearded pros- pectors of earlier days is the slick| winter set. They combine sunbath- ing and hiking with gold panning in hills near the resort hotels, It's true that none of the rock hounds has amassed a fortune from this newest hobby among the state’s vacationers. But many have been rewarded by small mineral discov- eries. Along with the winter set, there are still those who have devoted their Jives to the search for the yellow metal. They putter along the ribbens of dry river beds hoping to stumble across a fortune just around the next bend. Gold mining on a commercial ba- sis has been abandoned by the. lar- jer mining companies. What little is taken from the ground by the operators is mainly a by-product of of copper and zinc. During the war, other metals were considered more essential. So gold mines shut down because of difficulties involved in getting high- priority materials. i i i | BOX SCORE AB H R 4 o .

Crimes by women have doubled sinca 1935, while those by men have risen by 50 per cent. These changes in Britain’s na-! tional life, are shown in the first! post-war publication of the an-| nual abstract of statistics for the United Kingdom., { ‘The abstract, issued by the Cen- tral Statistical Office, shows the drift of population from the rural districts in England and Wales| continued. More marked was the movement of people from the north to the south of England. There was a large decrease, in the civil popu- lation of the London Southeastern region, Illegitimacy showed signs of de- clining in 1946 after having reach- ed a war-time peak. The number of illegitimate births, which aver- aged about 32,000 (4.5 per cent) at the outbreak of war, rose to 71,000 (89 per cent) in 1945 and fell in 1946 to 62,000 (6.5 per cent). Statistics since 1870 show that every year more men than women die. In 1870 by far the largest num- ber of male deaths—=80,000 or 25.7 per cent of the total—were infants were only 7.9 per cent, and deaths of men over 75 comprised 27.6 per| cent of the total. Figures for women show a similar trend. In 1945 there were 312,700 tache- lors in the United Kingdom, com- pared with 275,900 in 1948; and the number of spinsters was 320,000 against 387,000, A large increase in the number of divorce petitions is shown. In England and Wales the number fi- led in 1946 was 41,704 against 9,970 in 1938. - eee FROM FUNTER BAY R. H.
