Thpv blew a four run lead last night to drop the decision to last place Seattle, 7 to 5, which puts them behind in the series three games to one.

It -was ragged pitching again that spelled defeat. The Acorns gave young Jim Arnold a 5 to 1 lead in Sunday Pitchers Ralph Buxton and Cotton Pippen will pitch the double header tomorrow in Emeryville, Manager Casey Stengel an-- nounced today. Dick Barrett and Rex Cecil are scheduled to toil lor Seattle. This afternoon It was Floyd' Speer for the Acorns and Charley Ripple for the Rainiers. the second inning when they leaped on Bill Posedel for all five rung on five hits and a "walk.

POSEDEL NIGHT More than 1000 fans from Valleib, Barnacle Bill's home town, were in the stands." Before the game they had presented their fellow townsman a car load of gifts and then the Oaks ruined the evening for them and Posedel by driving him to the showers. 'Arnold coasted along for two more innings, before the Rainiers, who haven't looked or acted like cellar dwellers, went to work. Tony' yorfe. opened with single. Hal Sueme drove ground ball at Gene Liuard at third.

Gene fired to second, trying for a-double play, but UmpirMutart ruled York safe and Sueme was also safe at first beating Mickey Burnett's throw by a full step. The decision at second was close, too close, as a matter of fact Anyhow, It cost a run when Johnny Orphal, who succeeded Posedel, smgled, scoring York. Johnny Rucker forced Orphal at second and Mickey Eocco singled to right, scoring Sueme. Lou Novi- koff banged a basehit through the box, scoring Rucker, and the score was a tight 5-4. SUEME DOUBLES Seattle tied it up in the sixth when Sueme lofted a towering double against the left field with two out which enabled York to tally from first.

Arnold was derricked in favor of Lefty Charley Gassaway, who put out the fire by fanning OrphaL But a few minutes later he had joined Arnold in the clubhouse. With two put In the top of the seventh, Novikoff, the. Mad Russian, slammed a line drive home run over the left field wall, Hillis Layne walked and Johnny singled, scoring Johnson. Will -Hafey rushed but Gassaway had already receipted for the defeat. Orphal did an outstanding job of relief work, stopping the Acorns cold and then going on.to shut the door in the face.

VP) Frank Stranahan of the United States Walker Cup team was struck on the head by a golf ball while putting on the fifth green today and knocked unconscious for three minutes. Stops Braves By JACK HAND (Associated Preaa Sports Writer) Clint Hartung, the fabulous New York Giants rookie who was supposed to throw faster Bobby Feller and hit harder than Babe Ruth, has turned out to be a pitcher.

During a long spring training session. Manager Mel Ott toyed with the idea that big Clint was an outfielder. After risking life, limb and pitchers reputation for two weeks, Musial Faces Knife NEW YORK, May 1oX(JP) The world champion St Louis Cardinals, already beset with multiple troubles, had suffered a further serious blow' today when their great first baseman, Stan Musial was found to have acute appendicitis and Was or-' dered to undergo an immediate operation. Musial, left behind when the rest of the Cards entrained for Pittsburgh yesterday morning; booked passage on a plane leaving here for SL Louis, hopeful that an additional examination by the club's physician. Dr.

Bob Hyland, would gain him permission to postpone the surgery. Mel beckoned the big fellow to the bench and entrusted left field to the steadier, if ess spectacular, hands of Sid Gordon. Maybe this guy is a Ditcher after all," Ott mumbled to himself. And sent Clint to the bullpen. This may turn out to be his best move of the 1947 season.

WERE TREATED ROUGHLY. i Bill Volselle and Mike Budnick had been treated roughly by Boston yesterday, yieldingsix runs in the first three innings, so Ott decided to unveil Hartung as a big lefcurue pitcher. He probably wishes he had done It 1 three innings earlier for Cunt shut out the hard-hitting Braves the rest of the way. allowin omy iwo singles in six innines and striking out five. Johnny Mize's ninth inning homer and Willarrl Marshall' two of the runs back but the Giants succumbed to Warren Spahn's fancy left-handed pitching, 6-2.

Boston's success was rewarded with a first-place tie with Chicago, which thumped Cincinnati, 5-1, because Brooklyn fell from the top by losing an 11-inning night game to the Phillies, 6-5. BOBBY WORKED HARD Even Bobby Feller had to work hard to get a decision, going 11 frames before Cleveland topped SL Lbuis, 6-5, on Joe Gordon's third bit of the night Chicago regained the American League lead from Detroit by nosing out the Tigers, 2-1. with Orval Grove handing Hal Newhouser fourth successive setback.
