All this is the upshot of a night of exercise which produced a home run orgy at Los Angeles, a de- bacle at San Francisco, and some neat pitching at “Portland and Seat- tle. Frank Kelleher, the Hullywoqd outfielder who led the circuit in homers last season, appeared head- ed for a.repeat performance as he ‘drd three roundtrippers against CONTINUES _ Los Angeles. The Stars walloped six homers in the game altogether and won it, 13-1. Wes Bailey chucked seven-hit ball and the Oakland Acorns jump- ed on lowly San Francisco, 12-0. Ken Gables pitched Sacramento to a two-hit conquest of Portland. Joe Marty's two-run homer in the first gave Gables all the margin he needed. San Diego and Seattle split a doubleheader. Brilliant relief work by Art Del Duca assured the Rain- jers of a 6-2 triumph in the scco:d the game after the Padres won opener, 6-3. PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE * WwW.

Last by 13'c games with a sorry 8-21 record a year ago, the surpris- ing Sox now are a driving second with 19-9 and an unprecedented clean sweep on their first Eastern tour. Paul Richards, the new manager Lane brought in from Seattle, rates the big cheer. But the man behind the scenes is Lane, the energetic go-getter who is the Chicago gen- eral manager. i Lane wanted Richards as his manager when he took the Chicago | ready was hired. | Successful Deals o Once Lane got his man he started | to move. A series of successful deals | have changed the complexion of the White Sox from a lackadaisical “do it tomorrow” second division gang to a rip snortin’, running’ bunch of base bandits. This is a “made” club, put to- gether almost entirely with deals. The Sox had no farm system worthy of the name. Harry Gumpert gave up 11 hits to Philadelphia yesterday but went all the way to a 5-2 win, Chicago’s seventh straight. S gpin on the New York Yankees who belted over Detroit, 11-1, for their 14th. win in 15 Yankee ' Stadium starts. | 19-Hit Barrage Bobby Feller bounced back from his first loss at Boston to shut out Washington with two singles, 16-0, supported by a 19-hit barrage. Bobby Avila with four hits and Larry Doby with a three-run homer and single were the stoutest slug- gers for Cleveland. The St. Louis at Boston game in the American was washed out. Only action in the National| brought St. Louis a rousing 11-3 win over Cincinnati in a night game. St. Louis Rookie Joe Presko, a Houston | grade, had a no-hit game going for | 6 1/3 innings. FIRST GAME WON BY COAST GUARD OVER ELKS, 6700 Holding the Elks to one hit, the Coast Guard last night laced up| the game in the first two innings to win 6 to 0 in the first baseball game to be played this séason. The first two games were rained out. Morrison, lead-off man for the CG, laid one over right centerfield for a two-base hit. Wilber, second man up, got on second on an error, putting Morrison on third. On a right two-base hit by Dorris, Mor-| rison and Wilber scored.
