As an added feature for enter- tainment there is “Some of the Best,” an anniversary film. It is a fascinating cavalcade of great mo- ments from great movies, it pre- sents 100 stars in action in scenes from 25 all-time Hollywood hits. In addition there is an advance look at scenes from productions still in the making. \FRIDAY NIGHTERS FIGHT FOR PLACES| California Grocery won over Alex- ander Photo and Royal Cafe tied with Juneau Young Hardware at the end of the third game, so they rolled the fourth game to break the tie resulting in Royal Cafe having| the right to bowl against California Friday night for the championship.

ROOKIE OF TRIBE IS OUT OF GAME TULSA, Okla., April 10—»—Big Luke Easter, the Cleveland Indians’ rookie outfielder, was sidelined to- day with a shoulder injury that may keep him out of the Tribe’s opener on April 18. Wally Bock, clud trainer, said the hard-hitting Negro definitely would be out of the re- maining exhibitions: VETERAN DAVIS (UP PLAYER 1S WINNER, MIAMI TOURNAMENT MIAMI BEACH, Fla., April 10— (P—Gardnar Mulloy, Miami’s vet- eran Davis Cup tennis player, put another trophy on the mantelpiece today. The rangy Miami racquet wielder was the aggressor from the start yesterday and won the finals of the second annual Good Neighbor Ten- nis Tournament by defeating Tom Brown of San Francisco, 4-6, 6-2, 6-3, 6-2. 478 EASTERN STAR Past Matron’s and Patron’s Night THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA YOUNGSTERS WITH PHILS SHOWING UP (By the Associated Press) The transformation of Philadel- phia’s nickname from the “Phutile- Phils” to the “Phighting Phils,” may be traced to that irrepressible qual- ity—youth. Manager Eddie Sawyer probably will field the National League’s youngest starting team this season. Excluding pitchers, only two players —first baseman Eddie Waitkus and catcher Andy Seminick—are over 26. Waitkus, attempting a comeback after being shot by a deranged girl last summer, is 30. Seminick, the club’s senior member, is 29. Aside from Waitkus, an infield of Mike Goliat at second, Granville Hamner at shortstop and Willie Jones at short averages a little more than 23. Hamner is 22, while Goliat and Jones are 24. Del Ennis, strongman of the out- field, is only 24, despite four years with Philadelphia. Richie Ashburn, who'll probably start at some out- field post, is 23. The other outfield berth could go to Ed Sanicki, 25. The Phils, third place finishers last season, blasted out four home runs yesterday in defeating Fort Worth of the Texas League, 10-6. In the homer outburst, Hamner collected two round-trippers, Jones and Ennis one each. In other grapefruit league action, the New York Yankees, propelled by five home runs, downed the Mem- phis Chicks, 9-8. Tommy Henrich connected for two homers, Joe Di- Maggio, Hank Bauer and Gene Woodling, one each. Bob Lemon went the full distance in pitching the Cleveland Indians to a 12-6 victory over the New York Giants. Lemon, Cleveland’s 22-game winner last season, gave up 15 hits. The Indians got 19. Boston’s Braves scored six runs in the eighth inning including Tommy Holmes' grand slam homer, to turn back the Cincinnati Reds, 15-12. Ted Williams crashed two home runs to lead the other Boston entry —the Red Sox—to a 12-4 romp over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Other games saw Detroit down the Chicago White Sox, 8-5; the St. Louis Browns whip San Antonio, 8-2; Washington outlast Connie Mack’s Philadelphia Athletics, 17-5; Brooklyn shade Atlanta, 9-7; Chi- cago’s Cubs nick Shreveport, 7-5; and the St. Louis Cardinals defeat Houston, 7-3. PADRES (LOSE UPTO STARS FOR TOP SPOT By JIM HUBBART (Associated Press Sportswriter) After two weeks of play, Holly- wood’s Stars are still leading in the Pacific Coast League baseball mara- thon today, but they're only half a step ahead of the weather man and the San Diego Padres. They demonstrated this Sunday by grabbing both ends of a double- header at Los Angeles, 11 to 9 and 7 to 2. The sweep brought the Padres to within a half game of the lead and dropped the Angels into fifth place. ‘The cpener was a three hour af- fair involving eight pitchers and 23 hits. At Portland, the fourth place Beavers also swept their twin bill, whipping Oakland by 1 to 0 and 8 to 5. Red Lynn twirled the shut- out, scattering eight hits. Portland won the second game with three runs in the sixth inning after Vince Shupe’s roundtripper tied it at 5-all in the fifth.

The Twinks snared the opener, 6 to 3, with a five run ninth inning outburst. Frank Kel- | leher topped it off by homering with | h two on. Guy Fletcher, Seattle's mound ace, | tossed three hit ball in the after- piece, but each hit figured in a Hollywood tally. On Tuesday, the clubs take on new foes.

For Ferrier, the 13th was “his| unlucky hole, the death hole,” De- | maret says. Demaret shot a final day three- under par 69 for a total winning score of 283 strokes. He slipped in the winner instead of Ferrier, who led for two days and most of the final round. Ferrier, a giant Aus- tralian now living in San Francisco, blew to a 75 on the final round for a 285 total. Defending Masters champion Sam Snead was third with 287 and Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson were tied for fourth with par 288’s. | On ‘Demaret’s four trips around the ~ Augusta National's 6,900-yard championship course, he eagled the par five 13th hole twice and shot two birdies. Ferrier was two under par until he mounted the 13th tee on the final round and he looked like the winner without a doubt. But on the 13th he began to blow. He needed 1 'stroke more than par on the 480- yard hole and on the next hole he couldn’t recover and he continued to fall until the round was finished.
