PAGE SIX All Over But the Governor's Cup on Pacific Coasf; $30,000 Kittyfo b Tih Place A's Knof Things Up With Leaders Philadelphia Dumps Red Sox fo Make Pennant Battle Two-Way Affair By the Associated Press It’s lucky for New York and Clev land they have so few games lc to play against the Philadelphia Athletics. Thanks to Jimmy Dy A’sthe American Le e, for the time being at least, has become a two-team battle between the front- running Yankees and the runnerup Indians. Boston's third-place Red Sox, hot on the heels of the leaders for months, saw their pennant hopes all but shattered yesterday when the seventh-place Athletics drub- bed them in a doubleheader, 10-4, and 3-2. The double defeat dropped the Red Sox five and a half games be- hind the Yankees and Indians. The Sox have 20 games remaining to 19 for the Yankees and 15 for the In- dians. Fortunately, Boston has no more games with the Athletics who are scheduled to face the Indians two- more tignes and the Yankees once. The Yankees increased the first-place margin to four percent- age points over the Tribe by - ing a pair from Washington, 7-: 2-0. Cleveland also won, 4-3, from the St. Louis Browr The New York Giants kept their flickering pennant hcepes alive in the National League race, de- feating the Brooklyn Dodgers 1. to climb back within five and a half games of the lead. The St. Louis Cardinals entrenched the hold on third place with a pair of friumphs over Pittsburgh, 2-1, in 10 innings, and 7-4. Boston’s Braves trounced Phila- delphia's Phils twice in their battle for fourth place, 5-4 and 4-1. Chi- cagd's Cubs emerged from the cellar splitting a doubleheader with Cin- cinnati. The Reds won the second game, 7-0, after the Cubs had cap- tured the opener, 7-3 Chicago's White Sox edged out Detroit, 4-3, in a game that had no bearing on the American League race. The Red Sox, who had prev- iously whipped the A’s 15 times in 20 games, were beaten with their own weapon—the home run. A three-run homer by Eddie Joost snapped a 4-4 tie and sparked the A’s to a six-run eighthb inning that won the opener. s’ animated Tim | | Imflhlcn]).

The playoff starts Tuesday with second place Hollywood entertain- ing fourth place Portland and the pennant club, Seattle, playing | host to Los Angeles. The money breakdown, based on an incomplete audit of gate receipts for the season, figures out something like this $10,000 to Seattle for winning the championship. i $10,000 to the playoff winner. 5000 to the playoff runner-up.| $2,500 each to the first round los- ers in the playoff. In other words, the Rainiers would pocket $20,000 by winning the playoff—two thirds of the kit- ty—and if past performances are any indication, they're liable to do just that. In the nine playoffs they have participated in, the Rainiers have won 44 games and lost 40, high for the league. Now, for the record, here’s how the clubs fared on the last day ox‘ one the season: San Diego walloped Hollywood in 1 pair of extra inning games, 13-8 and 1-0; Sacramento beat San Fran- isco, 10-4 and 4-3, to wind up in seventh place; Oakland dispatched Portland, 5-3 and 7-3, and Seattle split with Los Angeles Tt took Seattle 10 innings to beat Los Angeles, 8-7, in the opener and nap a three losing streak Catcher Joe Erautt’s two 1 single in the last of the tenth did the job.

Several hundred cans of salmen from Alaska and other districts are selected at random, the labels removed and a large group of experienced examiners carefully judges the food product. From these annual Salmon Cutting Demonstrations, sponsored by the North- west Branch of the National Canners Association, canners learn how to improve their pack. This continuous desire for improvement is especially important to Alaska because it is essential that the Territory’s chief industry keep the quality of its product high in a very competitive market. In addition to these “Annual Salmon Cuttings,” the industry carefully inspects its product at many stages to be certain that high standards of purity and quality are maintained.
