TENSE OFFERING BEING SCREENED CAPITOL THEATRE One of the most tense and dra- | matic stories of the rehabilitation ot a former convict, Universal-Inter- national’s “Outside the Wall,” is the feature at the Capitol Theatre. Co-starring in the film are Rich- ard Basehart, Marilyn Maxwell, Signe Hasso and Dorothy Hart. Crane Wilbur wrote and directed for Producer Aaron Rosenberg. The stars have excellent support from such well known players as Lloyd Gough, John Hoyt and Henry Mor- gan. ' The story concerns the freeing of Larry Nelson, 30-year-old convict | played by Basehart, from prison after he had spent halt of his life behind bars, and the almost insur- mountable obstacles overcome by the ex-con in his attempts to adjust himself to the strange world outside. After disheartening rebuffs from society Nelson obtains a laboratory assistant’s job in a sanitarium where he falls futilely in love with Marilyn Maxwell, a nurse, while another nurse, played by Dorothy Hart, shows affection for him. A dying patient admitted to the | sanitarium turns out to be an’ex- | | con named Stoker (John Hoyt) who had served time with Larry. Signe | Hasso, in the role of Stoker’s wife, | aligns herself with three gangsters in an attempt to take from Stoker the loot from a million-dollar rob- bery. There are many exciting de- velopments before the climax. BOSTON RED SOX GIVEN TWO SWATS (By the Associated Press) “The Red Sox won't win the pen- nant this year,” the man said. “They fold up against the strong clubs.” The man was a Boston baseball | writer. The remark was made right after Boston had buried the poor St. Louis Browns under a record shat- tering 29-4 count last Thursday. Fold probably is the wrong word but there is no denying the Red Sox have had miserable luck against the first division clubs this season. In 23 games against the Yankees, Tigers and Cleveland Indians, the Sox have won nine and lost 14. ‘That’s a cellarlike 394 percentage, Red Rolfe’s Tigers heaped insult on injury yesterday when the league leaders used two lefthanders who pitched nine innings apiece. Not since Cleveland’s Gene Bearden | beat them in the '48 pennant play- off game had an enemy southpaw been able to pitch the distance and win in Fenway Park. Southpaw Hal Newhouser scat- tered 10 hits to beat Bosto4, 6-2, in the opener. Lefty Ted Gray allowed only four hits in nine innings of sterling relief ball, to gain credit for the 9-8 14-inning triumph in the| second game, The defeat was the fourth in a row for the third place Red Sox who now are six games behind the Yankees and five and a half behind Detroit. The Yanks kept pace with Detroit by sweeping both ends of a doubleheader from the Browns, 1-0, and 4-2! St. Louis’ soaring Cardinals wid- ened their first place margin in the National League to two games over Brooklyn by crushing the New York Giants twice, 6-1 and 5-2. The best the Dodgers could do was divide a pair with the Reds in Cincinnati. The Brooks won the opener, 5-4, but the Reds came back to win the nightcap, 8-5. Philadelphia’s third place Phillies remained a half game behind Brooklyn, splitting a pair with the Pirates in Pittsburgh. The Phils came from behind with five runs in the eighth against rookie Vern Law to win the first game, 7-6, but the Pirates took the second 5-4 on Ralph Kiner’s 13th homerun of the season. Chicago’s Cubs tied Boston for fourth place, defeating the Braves twice in Chicago, 5-4, in 10 innings and 2-1. The White Sox, Chicago’s American League entry, also won two games, whipping the Senators in Washington, 8-3 and 5-4. Cleveland and the Athletics di- vided a doubleheader in Philadel- phia. Three runs in the 10th enabled the Indians to win the first game, 6-3. A seven-run seventh inning won the second for Philadelphia, 9-6. A near-sellout crowd of 34,906 saw Newhouser and Dobson duel evenly for seven innings of the opener, but the Tigers broke a 2-2 deadlock in the eighth and added three more in the ninth to give Newhouser his fifth victory and Dobson his fourth defeat. 3 Fred Mutchinson was the Tiger starter in the second game. He was clubbed for eight hits and five runs in five innings. Gray took over after Detroit had tallied three times in the fifth to knot the score at 5-5. Each team scored once in the seventh. Thereafter Gray and Parnell, Boeston's sole hurler, pitched goose eggs until Vic Wertz homered in the 14th. It was Gray’s sixth triumph © 1950, The Coca-Cola Company @ ltmd Parnell’s fifth loss. \ THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA ' HOTBATTLE 'FORFLAGIN P.(.LEAGUE By JIM HUBBART (Associated Press Sportswriter) Pitcher Max Surkont and the San Diego Padres continued to amaze | Pacific Coast League adherents to- ‘day—surkom for his phenomenal record with last place Sacramento, ‘and the Padres for their phenom- | enal ability to sleep standing up. The pennant battle has assumed | the proportions of a rout as the |clubs hit the road for Tuesday’s series openers. How long it will re- main thus is a matter of conjec- | ture, but right now Hollywood leads San Diego by five full games. The Padres, once the scourage of the league, booted a pair to Holiy- wood Sunday, even as they booted six previous games during the week. Both contests ended at 6 to 4. What had happened to San Diego’s prodigious batting power, its effective pitching and its infield nobody seemed to know, least of all the Padres. They were slumping— and badly. Big Surkont, meanwnile, chalked up his 12th victory of the campaign and his 99th strikeout as the lowly Sacs trimmed third place Oakland, 10 to 2 and 3 to 0. The shutout belonged to Frankie Dasso. i Surkont, the PCL’s winning flinger, scattered seven hits in posting his third triumph in four cracks at the Oaks. ‘The other participants split yes- terday's twin bills. A walk by re- liefer Ewey Adkins gave Portland a 5 to 4 victory over Los Angeles in their first game. The free pass came in the ninth inning with the bases loaded. Bob Muncrief blanked the Beavers in the afterpiece, however, 4 to 0. At Seattle, the Rainiers and the San Francisco Seals traded shut- outs, thereby bringing to four the day’s total of goose-eggings. Al Ger- haeuser handcuffed the Seals, 2 to 0, on five blows in the opener; Manny Perez chucked a neat four hitter as San Francisco won the nightcap, 11 to 0, in a 16-hit orgy. Attendance figures were up heart- eningly. The San Francisco-Seattle series lured 46,791 citizens, 11,992 of whom turned out Sunday. At Holly- wood, 11,307 fans appeared yester- day at Gilmore Field, highest there this season.

WESTERN FILM IN TECHNICOLOR AT 20TH (ENTURYi The same trio which made; “Smoky,” “Thunderhead, Son ot Flicka,” and “Green Grass of Wyo- ming,” all top Twentieth Century- Fox outdoor hits, was reassembled to bring Will James’ “Sand,” to the screen in Technicolor. Producer Rob- ert Bassler, Director Louis King and | Cameraman Charles Clarke joined forces for the film which stars Mark Stevens, Coleen Gray and Rory Calhoun qd which is the feature at® the 20th Century Theatre. l} King, a veteran megaphonist, | agreed with Bassler that the “Four Corners Country” in Colorado would be an ideal setting for “Sand.” There, where the state lines ot Colo- rado, Utah, New Mexico and Ari- zona form a cross, the scenic beauty is unexcelled. The cast, crew and assorted animals required for the film were transported to Durango, Colorado, where all the outdoor shots were made under King's su- pervision. The studio’s production experts worked with one of the largest crews ever assigned to an outdoor Technicolor picture in location. In- cluded were not only the cowboys and extras, but a contingent of tech- nicians, plus grooms and wranglers, trainers and other animal handlers. Included in the cast, are Charley Grapewin and Bob Patten. LEADERS IN B. B.
