A WP Swain. PB Porter, Brocklander and Vigliolti. 5,266. 2m Pj JERRY JLUGENS Sports Editor It simply was a case of too many men left on base as the Quad-City Angels disappoint-ej the season's largest crowd 5,206 in losing to Clinton 6-4 Wednesday night. In the first four innings, the Angels were almost 100 per cent in efficiency, stranding only one man while scoring three times.

But in the last five frames, 10 perished on the sacks two innings with three on when the last out was made. They had a golden opportunity for a winning rally in the ninth, but Sam Ashford grounded out with the bases crammed. The big turnout was a Davenport Chamber of Commerce promotion, hiking the Angels' season attendance to 37,301. The concluding game of the scries with the Pilots will be played at Muny Stadium tonight at 7:30, with Terry Tuley, 2-1, pitching for the home team. He'll be opposed by Steve Harvey, a right hander with a 2-4 record.

Bob Coluccio, Clinton second baseman, was the big noise in the attack, clubbing four hits in as many times at bat, including a double and triple. He scored three times, drove in two runs, and stole a base. Coluccio, however, almost turned out to be the goat, for in the ninth inning he dropped a pop fly in short right field that put winning pitcher Por-forio Sanchez in a jam. Sanchez then gave a single by John Doherty and a walk ti load the bases with two down.

Manger Kuehl said that Burr was having some difficulty and rather than let him get into trouble, he sent Swain to the mound. Heinbechner toiled five frames before Manager Mike Stubbins of the Angels put Rick Hansen on the firing line. Among the spectators was Dick Walsh, general manager of the California Angels, parent of the Quad-City club.

Coluccio drilted a double off third baseman Roger Minor's glove to open the second inning. Heinbechner easily retired the next two batters before Hansen lofted his homer far over the right field fence. The Angels scored once in their half as Doug Howard, making his first appearance in Davenport, tripled to left and ambled home on Bigone 's single. Heinbechner bumped into trouble in the third after two were out. arr el Porter walked, Gorman Thomas singled, and Coluccio blasted a triple to left, the ball bouncing off the top of the fence and back onto the field.

Coluccio registered the third run on a single by Gary Martz. That proved to be all the margin Clinton needed. After Bigone rapped his homer with Doherty on base in the fourth, each team scored once more. The Pilots' final run in the fifth developed from a pop single by Coluccio, his theft of second on which Angel catcher Bigone made a wild peg, and a single by Wilbur Howard. Thereafter, Clinton a limited to one hit as Hansen, Virgil Barrientos and Clniton Compton toiled the final four innings for the Angels.

The Quad-City club messed up a good scoring chance at the expense of Swain in the fifth. An error, a double by Heinbechner, and a walk filled the bases with only one out. Dan Adams made a fine play on Doherty's foul fly and Howard struck out. Swain issued two walks with one away in the sixth before Sanchez got John Cassis on a fly to right and fanned pinch-hitter Mike Martorella. A single by Doherty went to waste in the seventh.

Bigone and Ashford launched the eighth with singles. After Dave Chorley bounced into a force play, Cassis plated the final Angel run with a sacrifice fly to AP Wlrephote the coaches to help them.

"THE $29 million figure never came into the discussions," the player's source said. "It is a preec of incorrect arithmetic.

They (the owners) must be adding together everything. Both the $18 million and Ihe $25.8 million figures relate only to pension and insurance benefits." However, the players arr asking for increased shares in post-season games, including the Super Bowl, and these increases possibly could be the difference between $25,8 million and million. The player's source said the owners also made two qualifications to their figure that payments to players on losing teams in divisional playolf games be eliminated, and that players give up their financial rights for the use of their names, faces or uniforms in commercial enterprises, This right was granted I ni during Ifl(i8 negotiations. The player's source said Ihe $l8-millioii figure would cost each club about $10,000 a year, while the $25.8 figure would be about $140,000 a year.
