EASTERN LEAGUE Hartford 8-1; Wllllamsport 0-4. Elmlra 8-8: Springfield 3-9. Scranton ft; Albany 4 (13 lnnlnffs). Binghamton at Wllkta-Baire (2) Last night's game saw Southpaw Bill Walker coast to an easy victory as 4000 fans tried to get a spark' of life out of the Oaks. Not until the ninth frame did they respond, when singles by Christoff and Marvin and Christopher's double against the left field wall scored their only run.

Christopher has driven in all three runs made by the Oaks in. the two games against the league leaders. He bagged his 100th and 101st hits of the season last night. WIN GAME IN- FIRST The Rainiers clinched the contest and extended their league lead over the Oaks to 10 full games in the first inning. Jo-Jo White, first man up singled off Ralph Buxton.

While Buxton was retiring Bill Schuster on a fly to Christopher, White stole second. While Bill Lawrence was batting, White stole third. With Spencer Harris up, White wa. ready to come on in and steal Bill Conroy's shoes, but this was not necessary. Hrrris worked Buxton for the first of five bases on balls he issued and George Archie followed with a single to left to score White.

When Gudat let the ball roll through his legs to the fence Harris also registered. A walk to Archie, an infield hit by Ed Kearse and a smack to left' by Dick Gyselman gave the Rainiers another tally in the sixth. They added threemore in the eighth on Archie's hit a sacrifice by Kearse, Ernie Raimondi's wide throw on Gyselman's grounder a single by Walker. DYNAMITE STRIKES OUT Walker made the Oaks look very helpless until the final frame. They made only five hits and nary a run in the first eight rounds.

The only tirr they had threatened was in the seventh when, with one away Gudat singled to right. Cecil Dunn fanned but Christpher hit sharply to left to give the fans a chance to cheer. Bill Conroy ended the threat with a fly that White captured. In the ninth Christoff singled and went to second on Gudat's second hit. Dunn flew to Harris but Chris topher kept up his fine clutch hitting with a two-base smash against the left field fence that scored Christoff.

Conroy popped to the catcher and Vergez, pinch hitting, lofted to Law rence to end the game. Buxton was jerked in th eighth for a pinch hitter and George Dar-row worked the last inning without allowing a hit. Tonight's pitcher will be Stanley Corbett, seeking his 14th win for the Oaks, opposed by Dick Barrett, generally poison to the local club Jack Salveson, who has Won four in a row, including two over Se attle, will get the call Friday night SOS! SOS! SOS! SEATTLE rfecently one of the better San Francisco sports editors wrote an interview Lou Nova which later was pooh-poohed by some of the wise guys who behove they know a thing or two about urize- fighting and Nova. The skepticism was based on Lou's asserted threat he would fight the bumptious Baer for money, marbles or chalk, in a ring or an allev. ith or without gloves.

Preferably with out. "Haw. haw." chortled the wise guys. "Nova doesn't talk like that. Lou is a quiet, reticent gent.

And the only time he'd fight Baer wculd be when 25 per cent of the nouse was guaranteed. The interview is a phoney." But the wasn't a phoney because the writer happens to know Lou Nova hates Max Baer with a beautiful hate, and he'd like nothing better than to pummel the former heavyweight champion into a quivering pulp. And without the benefit of referee. M. BAER POPS-OFF This detestation had a feeble origin a few seasons back when Baer treated the up and coming Lou with an adult condescension which piqued the self confident Nova no end.

The annoyance Lou felt for Max increased with the passing of the years but blossomed into full flower following the former's disastrous bout with Tony Galento. Lou, confined to a hospital, was visited by Max, and following that visit Baer broadcast to he country at large Lou was through, Wastfed-up, a broken down exj-prizefighter. Word of Max' utterances, spread principally through the East, came back to Lou and to Nova's manager, Ray Carlen, And the previous disregard Lou felt for Max Baer was as nothing compared with the bitterness generated by Max' remarks regarding, his contemporary's state of health. This writer doesn't doubt if the heavyweights meet again it will be a vicious, grueling bout with Lou handing Max an even greater beating than he dished up in their recent scrap. BOOSTERS TOSS A PARTY A few members of the Booster Club are gnashing their teeth and telling themselves they have plenty of luck but it's all bad.

The cause of mental unrest was the Tuesday night shindig, marking opening of the Oaks-Angel series. Usually the parties (and they're good ones) cost a Booster anything from three to four fish, but this week's party was gratis. It seems some of the lads in the organization didn't understand the nature of the financial arrangement and stayed at home, saving their money for vacations or the Friday night poker game.

Hugh Mulcahy pitched the Phils to a 3-0 shutout over the Cardinals last night Luke Hamlin, who hasn't won a game since June 14, was in superb form as he pitched the Dodgers to a 2-1 triumph over the Cubs.

ODDS 'N ENDS 'N THINGS The Such-Is-Fame Dept: The ether day this writer interviewed Walter Mails, ebullient.public relations man for the San Francisco Seals, and Norman (Red) a football coach at St. Mary's College, at an American Legion Service Club luncheon.

So you thought your names were known to every man, woman and child in the Bay area, eh Wal ter and Red? So sorry, Joe Luke and Jimmy Morehouse, I can't accept your kind invitation to attend the grand opening of your new nigty club, "The Serenader," tonight. A previous engagement prevents. But I'll catch up with you.

"How'm I doing, boys, how'm I doing?" he asked in a high and hysterical voice. "What round is It? What round did I get him in?" Caplin explained that he wasn't doing well, at all that he was knocked out in the sixth.

NEVER WAS HURT You're crazy," Jenkins said. "I never was knocked out. I never was hurt." Caplin tried to tell him what had happened; how he had been unable to get out of his corner after the sixth. "You mean I couldn't get up? Get me another fight, get me another shot at him. Say, lissen, where am For fully 15 minutes Jenkins Just rambled on.

Pat, strictly an O.K.

guy, who knows the ins and outs of the divot digging industry from tee to green, takes pardonable pride in his club. The compact arrangement, which includes tennis courts, swimming pool, stables and all other country club facilities, is administered on a more or less family basis, ne says. Ma finds plenty of time and with whom to shuffle a iriendly bridge deck. Junior has his choice of the pool, horses, tennis or hiking. All of which leaves Dad free to lay the wood on the old grape to his heart's content.

Operating on the guest card, membership plan, Diablo draws the majority of its flock fiom the Piedmont-Oakland area. Playing along the fairways, it Is not unusual to see some homesteader tee off from the rear stoop over the prize hibiscus onto one of the back nine holes. It may take the player the entire day to make the loop. When he reaches the clubhouse, he may 'decide to go for a dip. board a bronco, or throw the bull with friends before finishing.

HAD TOUGH TIMES Diablo, like most other country clubs, had some tough times during the depression, but now that the financial blackout has lifted somewhat, and the clakers and frogskins are at least beginning to run, even if not flowing freely, things look good. The present membership roll totals 360, according to Pat, and should reach the 400-mark this Summer. When it does, the club will go back to the strictly closed status it enjoyed during the boom days. During the past two years, play has tripled over the 6400 yard course, and has outgrown the present pro shop and locker room facilities. To remedy this situation, the space of the.

present locker room is being doubled and a new battery of tile showers is being installed to care for golfers alone. The club occupies the site of the historic Cook Ranch, which was a Contra Costa County showplace 70 years ago. It is operated now by the Diablo Properties Company, an organization formed by club members three years ago, which immediately placed the club upon a sound financial footing and instituted various improvements to both buildings and course-NEED STRAIGHT SHOTS The course itself, cared for by a corps, to whom every divot is a thing of horror, is a beauty. Finely textured greens and wcll-mynicuredJ fairways are the setting for a pleasant but testing game, which calls for every shot in the bag. Jos Hacker can enjoy the scenery, but he is not going to crack 90 unless he can batter the apple 200 yards from the tee and shoot a fairly straight iron.

Even a 200 or lightly better clout on some of the par fours leaves another good wood to reach the carpet. Diablo also holds tjtle to one of the world's toughest par threes a perfectly straight hole, with plenty of room to swing and no trees, Dut about 240 yards long and surrounded by soft turf which curtails all roll. Okay, siege gun, you tell me how many 240-carry balls you've hit. The first time Putter Patter played the course he discovered what he thought was the ultimate swank root beer flavored drinking water. Telling the story around, didn't sound very convincing, GOSH! STRAIGHT WATER So to prove his point, he inveigled Howard Caps, likeable young assistant pro at the Richmond Golf Club into making the trip with him (free playing lessons).

Came the first barrel the water Is placed in barrels along the course, usually under a giant oak we reached for a paper cup and took a swig. But instead of club soda, it was straight water. Pat explained that club members had protested against having soda without the conventional additional ingredients, and the. barrels were removed. The root beer flavor had been derived, from barrels which had seen previous service in drug store soda fountains.

Pat came to Diablo from the Claremont Country Club eight years ago where he had been assistant pro. He served in a similar capacity at Diablo, until Arthur Whiting now living in Danville retired due to illness. Among his many projects at Diablo is the institution of children's classes, where the young and tender may learn the sliceless swing from the beginning. Frank, Mc-Cann, runner-up in the recent Orinda invitational is one of Pat's prize pupils.

He started falling down and staggering up, falling down and staggering up. Six times he went down before the finish, and I'll swear to you that not one of the falls was due to a clean, hard punch from Armstrong's fists. You don't have to take my word for this. You can have the word of Eddie Mead, manager of Armstrong. "It was the worst fight I ever saw Henry ight," Mead said in the dress ing room.

He looked the same, but he didn't throw a decent head punch all night, and he coasted most of the way, The Armstrong of two years ago would have run Jenkins right on past El Paso in one round." Armstrong was a bit more gracious in his comments on the fight. IS PUFFY HITTER 'Jenkins was a rood boy and put up a good fight. But he isn't much of a hitter. He's a puffy hitter, if you know what I mean. His punches' sort of shove you.

instead of landing with a mean and hurting snap. He never really hurt me at all, and lj knew I had mm when got in a left hoo.k to his stomach in the second or third round. After that punch he didn't have anything, and didn't seem to want to stand up and take a whack at me."
