RAINIERS SWAT 'EM ON SUNDAY (By the Associated Press) The Leo Billops house — that’s the one just beyond the left field wall at Wrigley Field, Los Angeles— has withstood its worst assault in 25 years. But the house and its occupants can take it. They stand battered but unbowed today and perhaps a little more respectful of a home run blitz otherwise known as the Seattle Rainiers. The Rainiers polished off their Pacific Coast League serfes with the Angels in a Sunday doubleheader that produced nine round trippers, seven of them by Seattle. That brought the series total to 27 — a Wrigley Field record. Although they belted six homers in the first game, the Rainiers lost it by 11 to 8 when the Angels came from six runs behind. Walt Judich’s ‘oner in the after piece gave Seattle a 1 to 0 triumph, however, as Grumpy Guy Fletcher cranked up a three hitter. The split gave Seattle the series four games to three. San Diego’s slumping Padres won their first game in 10 starts by split- ‘ing with Oakland. The victory came via a three hit, 7 to 0 shutout by Roy Welmaker in the seven inning second game. The first was an 8-5 Oakland triumph, helped by Ray Noble's two homers and Roy Zim- merman’s round-tripper. Oakland won the series, 6-1, but San Diego regained third place in the league because Portland lost two ‘0 San Francisco, 9-56 and 6-4. League leading Hollywood thumped cellar tenant, Sacramento, twice 3-2 and 7-4, to increase the margin over Oakland to five games. The Stars took the series from the Solons, 5-2. There are no games scheduled in the league today. GOLFMEET STARTING INDENVER DENVER, June 19—(®—OId home- town friends are pulling for Babe Didrikson Zaharias to win the women’s western open golf tourn- ament here today on a rain-soaked course. They've installed her as co-favorite with Louise Suggs. And, yesterday, the babe, who now calls Chicago home, gave for- mer cronies something on which to peg their hopes. In an 18-hole exhibition - charity —match, she teamed with Betty Jameson of San Antonio, Tex., to defeat Patty Berg and Miss Suggs’ 4 and 3. All four have held the western open crown before. Miss Suggs, a trim brunette from Carrollton, Ga., is the defending champion, she, Mrs. Zaharias and Miss Berg, the Minneapolis redhead, each have won three times. Miss Jameson was the 1949 runner-up. SON FOR LIDDLES Mr. and Mrs. John Liddle of Ju- neau became the parents of a son early yesterday morning. The child, born at St. Ann’s hospital at 2:50 a.m. weighed six pounds eight ounces.

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA | MARIETTA, O., June 19 — &) — Washington sped homeward today | with the crown of college shell rac- | | ing, but the crew really bustin’ with | pride was “orphan” Stanford. And Stanford won only third place in Saturday’s 48th annual intercol- legiate rowing association regat.v.ai on the Ohio river. | More important to the Stantord | boys, however, is the tact that when | they get home they can say to their | school’s officials: “Look what we did at Marietta! | !Now. will you recognize rowing as| | an official sport at Stantord?” Washington’s Huskies tinished | | first in Saturday’s varsity race, Just {as they and their coach, Al Ul-| brickson, and most of the rivall Huskies Sweep Regatfa At Marieffa; All Crews Take First in 3 Events coaches had predicted. Washington’s oarsmen went fur- ther. They captured also the tresh- man and junior varsity races, the fourth time their school has done this. Washington, incidentally, is the only school which has ever ‘swept the river” in the IRA regatta by winning all three races. The 61-foot Washington shell skimmed the two miles on a river muddied and debris-strewn frc€. flood waters in 8 minutes, 7.5 sec- onds—a speed of about 15 miles an hour. In the freshman race, Navy was second and Cornell third. In the junior varsity event, California tin- ished second and Navy third. Both these races were at two miles. DETROITIS | TOP OF HEAP, ' AMER. LEAG. . . ' v Indians Ruin ‘Father’s Day for Connie Mack-Two Big Wallopings | By JOE REICHLER : (Associated Press Sportswriter) “If we could only beat Boston we might have a chance.” This was Manager Red Rolfe’s stock answer to spring queries re- garding Detroit's pennant chances | for 1950. The Tigers have met the Red Sox a dozen times thus far and have come off with nine victories. That is two more than they were able to win from Boston in their entire 1949 season. That, in a nutshell, 1s the chief reason why the Bengals are leading the rest ot the Ameri- can League by two full games today. Detroit made it nine triumphs in the last 10 games yesterday—the sixth in succession over the Red Sox — by trouncing Boston, 10-2. | Art Houtteman went all the way for his eighth victory. Despite the victory, Detroit’s 1irst place margin was shaved a half- game by the Yankees, who whipped the St. Louis Browns, 15-5 and 9-0, in both ends of a doubleheader in St. Louis. Macks Walloped Cleveland’s Indians ruined “Fath- ers Day” for Connie Mack, baseball’s oldest daddy, by blasting his Phila- delphia Athletics twice, 7-0, and 21-1. After Bobby Feller blanketed the A’s with two hits in the first game, the Indians scored a record | 14 runs in the first inning of the: nightcap. Brooklyn’s Dodgers climbed to within a half-game ot the National| League leading St. Louis Cardinals by whipping the Redbirds tor the third straight time, 9-0. Philadel-| phia’s third place Phillies moved|5:01.9, compared wita the old res-|which he had served as Superior | to within a game and a half of the top, tripping the Cincinnati Reds twice, 4-3 and 4-2. The Giants trounced the Chicage Cubs twice, 6-0 and 10-5, to creep up to within a half game ot the fifth place Bruins. Boston's Braves won their sixth straight, defeating Pittsburgh, 8-6, in the first game ot a doubleheader, the second was called after nine innings on account of darkness and a curfew law with the score vied at 8-8. The game will be repleyed tonight. The scheduled duubleheader be- tween Washington and the White Sox in Chicago was postponed by rain, Cleveland’s 14 runs were the most ever made in the first inning. The previous high was 13 made by the Braves in 1900 and the Giants in 1911. The A’s held the American League mark of 12, set in 1937 Three other clubs since 1900 tallied 14 runs in an inning. WASH. STATE IS ENTEREDIN NCAA GAME OMAHA, June 19—(P—The two remaining undefeated teams in the NCAA baseball tournament—one from the east, the other the west— ash today in a game that will give a solid advantage to the win- ner. Rutgers and Washington State are scheduled to meet at 7:30 p.m. (EST). The winner will bé the only team in the tourney for whom defeat will not mean elimination. Last night's play trimmed the field to six. Texas sent Colorado A & M home taking the Aggies 3-1 and Tufts came from behind to oust Bradley 5-4.
