HOMERS ARE SWATTED OUT, P. (. LEAGUE By Associated Press The home run is mighty and prevails in the Pacific Coast League. Home runs — 30 of 'em in 28 games, are edging Stan Hack's Los Angeles elub toward first place in the standing, while Portland, pace- setter from the start, is showing signs of faltering and has now dropped five straight. Two booming homers by Max West, .who used to fashion them for ‘San 'Diego, drove in five Los Angeles runs last night as the An- gels turned back the Padres, 6 to 3. Home runs by Jack Graham, also a former San Diegan, and Catcher Ray Orteig gave San Francisco the series opener over Portland, 7 to 1. Portland’s run was a homer, too, delivered in the fifth by Marv Dierks. t Frank Kelleher hit a homer for Hollywood at Seattle but the Rain- iers took a 4 to 3 decision on the head first sliding of Outfielder Jim Rivera. He stole home on ponderous Pinky Woods after he had singled, gone to second on a wild throw of his hit and taken third on an in- field out. Hollywood had a chance to win the ball game in the sixth with the bases jammed. Lou String- er singled in two runs but Rivera fired the ball in to start a double play that caught Ed Sauer going from second to third and Stringer trying to make second. Kelleher then hit his homer — with the bases empty. Sacramento and Oakland were balked by rain. PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE Pet. Portland Beavers ....... .586 Los Angeles ... 536 San Diego .

Does this mean that Russian ath- | letes can now compete on a par with the world’s best? Therg is no way to answer the first question positively, but it can be safely assumed that Soviet sports stars will not enter inter- national competition unless they are confident they will show up well against the athletes from the de- mocracies. It also can be safely assumed that if Russians compete, American in- terest in the games will be at the highest pitch ever. Russia has been flirting with the Olympic games ever since World expectation the Soviet might com- pete at London in 1948 but nothing came of it.

(P Wirephoto. §: lwrmf HURLS PIRATES FOR | WINSTREAK | By Associated Press Every time Willie Werle saunters \m the mound for Pittsburgh he in- | creases Branch Rickey’s reputation {as a master judge of players. It was back in 1949 that Rickey, ; then head of the Brooklyn Dodgers, offered $200,000 for the lefthand re- | lief specialist. The Pirates disdain- i ed the offer. And is Rickey thank- | ful. Branch, of course, is now gen- eral manager of the Bucs. Funny thing, Werle wasn’t worth a plugged nickel in spring {raining. In some 30 innings he was man- Ihandled for something like 40 hits and 20 runs. But once they started pla\.ng for keeps, he quickly began lo look like a million bucks. | He's been in four of the Pirates six contests and Pittsburgh has won them all. He saved three and receiv- ted credit for the other. Werle came to the rescue of start- er Vernon Law yesterday, holding the Cubs scoreless for two innings to preserve Pittsburgh's 6-4 victory in Chicago. Tied for 2nd Place The victory tied Pittsburgh with Chicago for second place, a half game behind the National League leading Dodgers, who were beaten, 7-4, by the Boston Braves in Brook- lyn. The Cardinals edged into the first division with a 3-1 win over Cincinnati in St. Louis. The Phillies handed the New York Giants their s)xlh straight loss with a 6-4 vic- ! tory under the Philadelphia lights.
