FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1950 FOUR GAMES ARE WON IN LAST FRAME (By Jim Hubbart) | The Seattle Rainiers are out of 'the Pacific Coast League’s first di- !vision today, following a night of hostilities ln which all four games were decided in the last inning. The heroes of the evening were Frankie Kelleher of Hollywood, Harvey Storey of San Diego, Frank Austin of Portland and Jim West- lake of San Francisco. Westlake, up from Yakima’s ‘Western. International League club, stepped up as a pinch hitter in the ninth frame of the Seattle-San Francisco contest and doubled two runs across to give the Seals a 5 to 4 triumph. It moved San Francisco into fourth place and dropped the Rainiers into fifth. Kelleher broke up a pitching duel between Hollywood’s Ben Wade and | Sacramento’s Glenn Elliott. Also in the ninth, Kelleher drilled his 30th home run of the year to give the Stars a 1 to 0 victory over the Solons. Story’s two bagger in the ninth inning scored Suitcase Simpson with the run that gave San Diego a 3 to 2 conquest of the pace setting Oak- land acorns. Austin produced the most climac- tic wallop of all. His roundtripper broke up an 11-inning ball game at Los Angeles and gave Portland a 4 to 2 victory. Austin connected on the first pitch with one away and one on. It was Portland’s sixth straight win and loss No. 5 for the Angels. The attendance slump continued unabated last night. Los Angeles, the league’s largest city, drew only 802 customers to Wrigley Field. Sac- ramento had 837, San Francisco 1140. San Diego had the. largest turnout with 4316 fans. What's the lowest attendance on: record? Well, in 1905 only one man showed up for a Portland-Oakland game. Nobody ever bothered to get his name.

These two veterans, both in their 12th seasons, are supplying the power that has propelled the Yank- ees to the front in the ding dong American League pennant fight. DiMaggio and Mize powered time- {1y home runs yesterday to lead the Bombers to a 7-5 victory over the Tigers in the opening game of their vital three-game series at Detroit. The “jump” triumph moved the world champions to the head of the class with a half-game edge. The Tigers, fell back to second while the surge'of the Boston Red Sox was derailed temporarily in St. Louis by the upstart Browns, who now have won eight in a row “The Browns polished off Tom Yawk- ey’s gold-plated boys, 6-3. The Sox now trail by two games. Hal Newhouser started against the Yanks Ve Raschi yesterday. Detroit plucked Raschi for four runs in the opening inning as they put together three singles, three walks:and a fly ball, but then the old pros started to operate. Two Homers Swatted DiMaggio led off the second inning with his 29th homer. Hank Bauer walked, Mize followed with his 20th round-tripper, and the Yanks were back in business. They tied the score at 4-4 with a run in the third and pushed two more across in the fourth to take the lead for keeps. Dick Starr, a former Yankee, stun- ned the Red Sox with a neat seven hitter under the lights at St. Louis. The Browns broke a 2-2 tie with three runs in the sixth inning and were never headed. Dick Kokos began the winning rally with a double. The Chicgao White Sox turned i | in the only other American League game. Washington and Cleveland were rained out. National League The Philadelphia Phillies continu- ed their march to the National League pennant by ed/ag the St. Louis Cardinals, 3-2, in & night game led home Ed Waitkus from lhirll basé with two out in the ninth in- | ning to win the game. The Phils’ lead, however, was re- duced to six games as the runner- up Brooklyn Dodgers took a double- header from the Cincinnati Reds, 6-3 and 5-2. Home runs by Gil Hodges, Billy Cox, Bruce Edwards and Carl Fur- tillo featured the first-game victory. | The New York Giants split a doublheader with the Pittsburgh Pi- rates, winning the second game, 6-1, behind the six-hit pitching of Jim Hearn after losin gthe opener, 7-1. Johnny Sain became Boston's third 19-game winner as he pitched the Braves to a 7-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs. e ABSENTEE VOTING Voter: Be sure to vote Republican ticket under absentee law before you leave for the States.

Nearly two dozen games are book- ed but they include such schools as Denver, Drake, Cincinnati, Brigham Young, Kansas State, Kentucky, Tul- sa, Nevada, Wyoming, Dugquesne and St. Bonaventure. Denver and Drake are the first of the major schools to send their elevens into action. The two play tonight at Des Moines. The game gives John Bright of Drake a head start on his campaign to retain the nation's ground-gaining title he won last season. There will be entirely different feeling at Lexington, Ky., and Poca- tello, Ida. At Lexington, the Ken- tucky Wildcats take on North Texa 'Sl'\w Kentucky, one of the south- eastern conference favorites, won nine and lost three last year, in- cluding a 21 to 13 setback by Santa Clara in the Orange Bowl. At Pocatello it will be Brigham Young against Idaho State with the former hunting its first triumph since 1948. The following week Kansas State meets Washington at Seattle. this JUNEAU SKIERS PREP FOR 1950-51 SEASON AT FIRST FALL MEET The Juneau Ski Club has begun planning for a big 1950-51 skiing season.
