The league leaders suffered fur- ther humiliation at the hands of the Acorns Sunday, losing both ends of a doubleheader, 7 to 0 and 7 to 6. It was Rapp’s 1l1th round tripper of the Season, and left the Oaks just three games out of first place. Veteran Charley Gassaway twirled a masterful six hitter to shut out Hollywood in the regula- tion opener. Oakland, taking the series five games to two, now has won the last five series in its surge upward. Sacramento, which had been tied Solons took the opener, 5 to 2, but the Padres came back for a 9 to 2 triumph in the afterpiece.

The Rainiers pounced on Port- land starting pitcher Hal Saltzman and reliefer Bill Fleming for seven hits and six runs in the seventh inning of the first game. The out- burst broke a 1'to 1 deadlock and launched Seattle to a 10 to 1 triumph. The Rainiers tucked away the nightcap, 2 to 1, on two un- earned runs, taking the series, 5 to 2. Lefty O'Doul's boys, meanwhile, won 8 to 3 and 6 to 2 at Los An- LEADERS IN B. B.

Dickson has not fared well in Pittsburgh. The little righthander | from Tracy, Mo. has been able to win only six games this season, tut four of them have been over his former mates. He’s made six starts against the Cards, and has yet to The Redbirds faced a golden op- portunity to open their biggest lead of the year over Brooklyn—two and a half games—yesterday. They had Just whipped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-2, in the first game of a double header while the Dodgers were los- ing to Boston, 5-0. That gave the front-running Cards a two-game bulge. A victory in the second game would increase their margin to two and a half games. Fred Martin, a repatriate from the Mexican Lieague, pitched the 4-2 win for the Cards. SOX CLOSE IN ON YANKEES The Boston Red Sox closed in on the American League leading new York Yankees, cutting their first place margin to two and a halt 4-0. Philadelphia helped the Red Sox by downing the Yankees, 8-7. Jack Kramer scattered seven Senator hits to post his fourth vic- tory for the Red Sox. Lefty Lou Brissie and first baseman Ferris Fain helped cele- brate “Connie Mack Day” at Yan- kee Stadium, by leading the A’s to their only win over the Yankees in the three-game set. Brissie went the route for his 12th victory. Fain drove in six runs with a double and a grand slam homer. SPLIT GAMES Third place Cleveland split a doubleheader with the White Sox in Chicago. The Indians came from behind to win the second game, 7-4, after Chicago had won the opener, 5-4. St. Louis moved out of eighth place by splitting a twin bill with Detroit. Les Moss' two-run pinch hit single in the eighth beat the ‘Tigers, 4-2, in the first game. Home runs by Vic Wertz, Pat Mullin and Paul Campbell won the second game for Detroit, 8-7. The Philadelphia Phils divided a doubleheader with the New York Giants. Kenny Heintzelman blanked Leo Durocher’s crew, 4-0, for the Phils' in the opener. The second | game was forfeited to the Giants by Umpire Al Barlick in the ninth inning when the Philadelphia cus- tomers rained pop bottles and other | missiles on the field in protest over a decision by Umpire George Barr. Barr had ruled that Philly out- fielder Richie Ashturn had trapped 1la drive off the bat of Joe Lafata. Ashburn argue that he -caught it. The Giants were in front at thel time, 4-2.

Zanuck's presentation of “The Snake Pit,” which closes its run tonight at the 20th Cen- tury Theatre, is a motion picture destined to rank as one of Holly- wood's finest efforts. Based on Mary . Jane Ward's best-selling novel, the film is a realistic por- trayal of a compelling love story an emotional drama on a rare and pregnant theme. “The Snake Pit,” is great enter-; tainment. For in addition to the; love story, there is pathos, sym- pathy, understanding and emotion. Olivia de Havilland’s perform- ance as Virginia is brilliant. It is a portrayal that has fire, force and compelling drive, marking her as the screen's outstanding dramatic actress. Her complete mastery of the demanding role marks a climax to her distinguished career. Leo Genn is perfectly cast as the kindly and idealistic Dr. Kik, while Mark Stevens contributes his finest work to date as Miss de Havilland's understanding husband. Celeste Holm, as a friend of Olivia, con- tributes a compelling portrayal while Glenn Langan turns in still achieves dramatic history in a performance fired into being by life’s raging emofions!
