SATURDAY, APRIL 8, 1950 SEATTLE IS BLANKED BY STAR GANG K (By the Associated Press) The weather man has been play- ing hob with the Pacific Coast League lately, but today it appears | that nothing less than a hurricane can dislodge the high riding Holly- wood Stars. Showing the form they used in winning the pennant last season, the Stars once again are hotter than a motorman’s hatband. Today, the Twinks are pacing the field with nine victories and only two setbacks—two games ahead of sec- cnd place San Diego. San Diego seems the logical can- didate to fan up that hurricane. At Seattle, where the Stars are cur- rently holding forth, the only notice- able wind is that stirred up by the Rainier batting order. Last night, for example, Lee An- thony twirled Hollywood to its third straight shutout in four games this week at Seattle. He yielded six hits as the Stars won, 7 to 0. The Rainiers opened each of the first four innings with singles, but they couldn’t work their runners around. The defeat put them sev- enth in the standings—next to last Rain is forecast at Los Angeles tonight where the Angels and the San Diego Padres are locked in combat. Last night, wet weather forced postponement of the game at San Francisco between the Seals and Sacramento, and called a halt to_the Portland-Oakland contest after five innings. The Oaks won it, 3 to 2, scoring all their runs off Portland’s Lyman Linde in the first inning. The rain also caused postponement of a scheduled second game. The clubs have a double header on tap for today. At Los Angeles, the San Diego Padres moved into second place with a 5 to 2 victory. BAKSI IS WINNER BY KNOCKOUT NEW YORK, April 8—®—"This time I'm not going to miss the boal. It was Joe Baksi talking. The 217- pound ex-coal miner from Kulp- mont, Pa., had just stopped hand- some Bernie Reynolds of Fairfield, Conn,, in two minutes seven sec- onds of the seventh round at St. Nicholas arena. Big Joe floored his-186-pound foe seven times and looked very impres- sive. He wore the 24-year-old Reynolds down with a vicious head and body attack and ended the scheduled ten-rounder with left hooks to the mid section in the seventh. The first decked Reynolds for eight and referee Ruby Goldstein didn't even bother to count after the second. Big Joe, who now lives in a small bungalow colony outside Green- wood Lake, N.J, was jubilant. “This time I'm not going to Kick away any chances,” said Baksi. “1 lost my chance at Joe Louis in '47 because I didn’t train for Olle Tand- berg.” Tandberg beat Baksi in Sweden.
