Two more weeks, and they'll quit playing baseball in the Pacific Coast League As the 1950 season approaches the wire, there’s little reason to doub that the final standings will look much different from the way the: do today — Oakland, San Diegc Hollywood and Seattle, in that order The clubs are involved in tha usual last minute scurry to get thel affairs in order before the player. go home for some needed rest. The farm hands are being called up the schedules are loaded with make- up games; the major leagues arc sounding recall. The Athletics have called Toc Davis up from Seattle; Dino Res- telli leaves San Francisco for Pitts- burgh; the Yankees get Fenton Mol from Portland; Ernie Bickhaus goe from Seattle to the St. Louis Browns Another double header was rainec out at Portland last night, so the Beavers and the Los Angeles Angel have another on tap tonight.

Spokane Manls - Given_S_IIver Star TOKYO, Sept. 26—»—The Silver Star was awarded today to Lt. Col. Another Pennant Win -Hits Terrific Pace (By the Associated Press) Peerless Joe DiMaggio is playing he leading role again in the News| York Yankees’ mad dash to their 17th American League pennant. DiMaggio’s booming bat has blazed the Yanks into the com- nanding 3% game lead they enjoy oday. Only a miracle will prevent he Yanks from winning their sec- nd straight championship. Casey Stengel’'s Marauders have ix games left to play and need to vin only four to sew up the pen- iant. If they win only three the unner-up Detroit Tigers would have o take all of their seven just to ie the Bombers, Three Yankee vic- ories would eliminate the third slace Boston Red Sox. As a matter of fact, with a little uck the Yanks can eliminate the Cigers today. All they have to do is beat Washington twice while St. Louis knocks off Detroit twice. DiMaggio has been knocking the ar out of the ball since the stretch Irive began Sept. 1. The big guy 1as hit safely in his last 17 games and in 21 out of 22. Terrific Pace This terrific .391 pace has lifted DiMaggio’s season average over the| 300 #emark for the first time this Jear. Allie Reynolds and Ed Ford, sen- ational rookie lefthander, were on he mound yesterday as the Yanks urned back the Washington Sena- ors, 8-3 and 7-4. Reynolds scattered nine hits to wang up his 15th victory in the jpener and Ford granted only seven n bagging his ninth without a set- oack in the finale. DiMaggio was the big gun in both games. The Red Sox kept their faint hopes alive by sweeping a double- neader from the hopeless Philadel- phia Athletics, 8-0 and 3-0, in the mly other American League activity. Mel Parnell blanked the A’s on hree hits in the opener to post his Giants for most games pitched in a single season. Preacher Roe turned in his 19th victory for the Dodgers in the day half of their doubleheader with the Giants, 3-2. the eighth inning to wipe out a 2-1 4-3.

The Charles backers, headed by fight manager Vic Marsillo, wail ’hat Ezzard is the most under-rated neavyweight challenger since Tun- ney, himself, first stepped into the ring against Dempsey. Marsillo, a canny judge of boxing styles, not only believes that the 29-year-old Cincinnati Negro will ¥ win, but that Charles will knock Louis out. “I like the well-oiled machine} against one that hasn’t been used for a time,” said Marsillo. “Sure Louis can punch, but he's going to have to catch Charles first.
