This “sudden death” poke gave the Oaks a 3 to 2 decision over | Los Angeles, saddled Hamner with his tenth loss and gave Earl Harris of the year. The Oaks gained ground on the| league-leading Hollywood Stars, | who went 12 innings and then were turned back by San Francisco in the Seals’ stadium, 6 to 5. A home run decided the issue at San Francisco, too. Dino Restelli|' smacked one of Gordon Maltz- berger’s slante over the left field wall. Seattle halted a turee-game los- ing streak as Hector Brown tossed a five-hitter against the Portland Beavers for a 5-3 win. Seattle col- lected 10 hits off three Portland pitchers while Brown was striking out six. Sacramento made it three in a row over the fading Padres of San Diego as Harry Gumbert held them to seven hits. The major league veteran, making his first start of the season for the Sacs, was not scored on after the third inning, whereas the Sacs got single runs in the second, sixth, seventh and eighth off Al Olsen. igned the The con- indebtedness.

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA ° FIRE DEPARTMENT 1S T0 HAVE WORKOUT; GOING TO BE TOUGH The Juneau Volunteer Fire De- partment met last night at Fire- mans Club and considerable dis- cussion arose over the need of in- struction for new members in hand- ling fire equipment as well as brush-ups for the old-timers. Accordingly, Chief Minard Mill ordered a workout Thursday, July 13 at 7:30 p.m. for all members. Turn- out suits or old clothes will be in order as several contests are to be staged between Companies 1 and 2 These trials are usually heated and not from fire either. Honorary fireman G. E. Cleveland and Jack Frost were visitors dur- ing the evening. After disposing of routine busi- ness, the meeting adjourned to driver Lars Sorenson’s lunch in the dining room. FIRST TRY-QUTS TONIGHT PREPARE FOR SOAP BOX DERBY The Fourth of July is past. Now that the hustle and bustle of the holidays are but a pleasant memory, concentration is starting on another exciting annual eveii in Juneau—the Soap Box Derby. For several months the town's younger male porulation has been busy with hammer and saws and the relative merits of streamlining. brakes, types of steering wheels, has been main topic of their con- | versations as they have been con- | structing their racing cars for the big event. Tonight the first practcie runs will be held on 1lth Street, and from now on Juneau will be Soap Box Derby conscious, with the hope that the town will have a winner in the grand run-off at Akron, Ohio.

There were some American casu- alties. The Communists craftily permit- ted an American unit to pass through a town, then opened up with machine gun and rifle fire. As daylight waned Friday, the Communists, according to an un- confirmed frontline report, managed | to drive a wedge between two Amer- ican units. This Red wedge was immediately taken under American artillery fire, however. The air of optimism which had bloomed Friday through the front line command as a strong patrol jeeped north ten miles into Red- held territory against light opposi- tion, suddenly changed to pessi- mism.
