Portland won the day game, 5 to 3 and Oakland the h contest, 8 to 4. Hollywood, the really in spring training and queror of the New York had its ears pinned back by mento, 5 to 4, before 12,432 fa Los Angeles and Seattle stru of “hot” tear er with Seattle scoring three in the ninth to gain a 12 to 9 de- cision. Joe Montalvo, Seattle catch- er, hit two homers, and his secona one was the winning blow. A fis fight in the fifth between Catchex Billy Raimondi of the Angel Pitcher Charley Shanz of the Rain iers enlivened an otherwise dull ex hibition. Baseballs lame duck commissioner, A, B. (Happy) Chandler, threw out the first ball at the Los Angeles game and looked better than any of the hurlers who followed him. Only 3,030 watched Portland hum- ble Oakland ih the opener as Iittl Marinp Pieretti, the pint-size Ital- ian, limited the Oaks to seven hits Tonjght’s games and probable pitehers: San!

KENTUCKY IS WINNER NCAATITLE MINNEAPOLIS, March 28 —#— Ever start your car up a long hill only to have it stop half way to the top because it ran out of gas? That’s also a description of Lew Hitch, Kansas State center. Last night in the NCAA title-deciding game which Kentucky won, 68 to 58 with a rousing last half rally. For the first half hitch, a mere six foot seven inch center, seven foot Bill Spivey, his Kentucky rival, look almost inexperienced. Then came the second half. Spivey kept right on going. Hitch all but stopped. And when Spivey took command cf the rebounding, Ken- tucky wiped out a two-point time deficit to saunter to its NCAA title in four years. Hitch snagged nine rebounds dur- ing the entire game but only one came in the second half. Spivey split his 21 rebounds almost down the middle with 12 coming after:the intermission, which found Kansas Stnt,e ahead 29 to 27.
