RAINIERS PURCHASE PITCHER SCHANZ SACRAMENTO, Calif., July 17— (M—The Seattle Rainiers announce the purchase of pitcher Charlie Schanz, the man most sought to bolster the club’s pennant drive in the Pacific Coast baseball league. Earl Sheely, Rainier General Manager here for tonight's All-Star Coast League game, made the an- nouncement, The 31-year-old Schanz, a main- stay of the Rainier pitching staff last year, was drafted by the Boston Red Sox. The Red Sox in turn sold him to the St. Louis Browns but he refused to report. GAMES TODAY BOSTON, July 17—{M—Al Rosen half of a day-night doubleheader. Joe Gordon, who also homered, sparked the Indians’' 12-hit attack with a perfect five-for-five batting performance. The Bosox’ Junior | Stephens bashed his 22nd homer, with one on, to assume the runs- batted-in parade with a 92 total. NEBRASKA RAINS FOLLOW TORNADOES OMAHA. July 17—(—Nebraskans, who seldom get done mopping up in the wake of weather violence, were at it again today. Two tornadoes ripped across sec- tions of rural Nebraska late Satur- day. On their heels came drench- ing rains and hail. The rain, of which there was nearly five inches in places, de- luged the east central Nebraska area near York where just a week before 13 Mches of rain brought death-dealing floods.

First, he needed | that 2 to 1 victory Wilson'’s four hit- | ter achieved to stay in third place ahead of the Padres. Second, Big Jim’s charmed arm could mean a pennant for Seattle. Why risk its injury in an All-Star game that never has caught on with PCL fans? Wilson’s triumph in the seven in- ning game was his 15th in a row. But his string of scoreless innings was snapped at 40, six under the| record. San Diego won the first game of the twin bill, 5 to 2. The rest of Sunday's double- headers passed without incident. | Oakland kept its three game md; by splitting with Hollywood and Los Angeles divided with San Fran- cisco.
