8 PARTI CC SEA Kra me ro Capture Thriller Davis Cuppers Nip Parker, Segura Clubs in Sudden-Death Play-off Game Tonight at Wrigley Field in Wild and Woolly 82-Game Battle BT BION ABBOTT If Jack Kramer wants to make a million dollars during his forthcoming professional tour, all he'd have to do is replay yesterday's Pacific Southwest men's doubles finals all around the country. But that'd be impossible, because sensational struggles like that one yesterday at the Los Angeles Tennis Club come along about as often as Halley's Comet. It had everything. Kramer and Ted Schroeder finally fin- By RAVEN DYER All the hubbub about Leo Durocher's future brings to mind what Branch Rickey told Burt Shotton when the old-timer took over the Bums last spring. "You'll be asked about next season," said Mahatma Rickey, "and I'd prefer that you didn't answer any questions, one way or.

the other. It'll be better that way." Quite naturally Shotton respected this advice, but those close to the Brooklyn picture know that he wants to return for '48. "I quit baseball when I was coaching Cleveland because I was sick," he said the other day. "I had sciatica so bad I couldn't walk, to the sidelines except in pain. That's all gone now I feel fine so why shouldn't I want to stay up here, make money and enjoy myself?" MONDAY'S MELANGE a A DIZ DUZ IT Dizzy Dean, who made his 1947 debut against the Chisox at St.

Louis yesterday with the Browns, appeared at bat with a blue-striped bat, but Umpire Cal Hubbard wouldn't permit it. So he came back with a red-striped one and hit a single in the third inning. The catcher is Mike Tresh. Dizzy pitched tour innings of the contest. A MONDAY MORNING, SAN DIEGO, Sept.

28. (TP) San Francisco ended the Pacific Coast League season in a tie for first with Los Angeles by splitting a double-header with San Diego here today, winning the first, 9 to 3, but dropping the second, 6 to 3, when Max West hit his 43rd homer of the season with two aboard in the extra-inning nightcap. The second game, which went two innings beyond the scheduled seven, lasted well after dark and the latter part was played under lights. It provided some wild scenes. Umpire Phil, Mazzeo was the storm center when he ejected the starting San Diego battery Manny Salvo and Frank Kerr for protesting a called ball in the sixth.

In the next inning he waved San Francisco Manager Lefty O'Doul and Left Fielder Dino Restelli from the game. Close Play at Plate They were protesting a decision calling Restelli out at the plate in an attempted home steal which would have given the Seals the game. The entire San Francisco team swarmed around Mazzeo clamoring against his action. The play at home was so close that many fans thought Restelli was safe. Bob Kerrigan, who replaced Salvo, was the winning pitcher.

West, the league's home-run king, hit the first ball pitched over the fence in the ninth aft er Pete Coscarart had singled and Johnny Jensen had bunted safely, West had hit his 42nd of the season in the first game. Chesnes Victor The opening game winning pitcher was the circuit's top hurler, Bob Chesnes, turning in his 22nd triumph. He relieved Cliff Melton in the seventh. The Seals took a 3-to-0 lead In the first inning of the nightcap on singles by Restelli and Matheson and Neil Sheridan's double and Ray Orteig's triple. First game: Saa Fran.

Baseball Standings PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE (Final ctandingsi Cadets Handed 67-2 Setback by Loyolans ished a nose in front three hours and 82 games later by scores of 9-11, 7-5, 6-2, 9-11, 12-10, but the final figures merely tell how close the battle was with Frankie Parker and Pancho Se- gura. fans Jn Dither What the disits don't reveal is that the usually placid Par- ker was leaping around like a hot jumping bean and giving vent to his emotions vocally, and that the even-dispositioned Kramer lost his temper.

So did Schroeder, while Segura was just like himself, only more so. There was a first-class rhu barb in the fourth set that would have done the Brooklyn Dodgers proud, and the tea and crum. pet set, who usually stifle a yawn and drawl, "Nice shot, old man, were standing on their chairs and cheering. And above all, the tennis was out of this world. The beef in the fourth set occurred when the lights were turned on after Segura won his serve to lead, 4-3.

Kramer demanded that Schroeder be allowed to serve in the dark, and after some bickering the request was granted. Jack missed two smashes- in the gathering dusk, which didn't do his disposition any good. He was already nettled by an overly long delay at intermission. Parker Overruled Parker, too, wanted to serve in the dark, but was overruled. At Sail in the fourth set Parker lost his serve, and it looked like curtains, but he and Segura broke Schroeder, held Pancho's serve, and cracked Kramer's delivery at love to square the match.

In the deciding set the national doubles champ broke Parker in the 13th game, but again he and Segura went through Kramer's service to tie it up at 7-7, but when Frankie again dropped his delivery in the 21st game, the challengers couldn't muster up enough energy to handle Jack's cannonball. Until the doubles started, all tthe tongues were wagging about a sweet, petite 17-year-old named Beverly Baker, who became the darling of the gallery by subduing Mrs. Patricia Canning Todd in a straight-set surprise, 6-3, 6-2, in the women's singles finals. Hits Like Heavyweight Beverly, who hits like a heavyweight with all her 116 pounds and strokes with equal facility right and left handed, belted her way into a 4-1 lead in the first set and went out in front, 4-0, in the second to turn the match into a rout. Kramer started the day's program off in a methodical manner as he stroked Schroeder into submission in straight sets, 10-8, 6-4, 6-4, for the men's sin gles silverware.

For the first set Schroeder waged a bitter battle with his Davis Cup partner as they followed service for the first 10 games. Then they traded breakthroughs for 6-alI. But starting with the 17th game, Kramer raced through Schroeder for six straight games for the first set and a commanding lead in the second. After that Schroeder never had a chance.

Louis Cardinals of the gas house days in the early 1930's, took the mound to show St. Louis radio fans he could still keep batters guessing with his "high, hard one," and with some snappy fielding behind him, Dean performed well. Three men hit safely against the Brownies' one-game hurler during his four innings on the mound and one was an infield blow. Dizzy's climax came in the third, however, when he smashed a single to left on the first pitch but it also was his downfall. While running to first base, Dean pulled, a leg muscle which caused him to leave the game after the next frame.

(VP) Ben Hogan of Hershey, who earlier this year scorned to play for Promoter George S. today won May's second international golf tourney with a 9-under-par 135 to grab the $5000 first prize. Hogan closed the 36-hole showdown among eight hand-picked players with a 2-under-standard 70, finishing three strokes ahead of South African Bobby Locke. Little Ben's triumph, in which he stroked nine birdies and an eagle, vaulted him atop the na-t i professionals in 1947 money-winning with $27,310. BY DICK HYLAND Times Staff Representative SACRAMENTO, Sept 23.

The Angels, courageously; battling down the stretch, split a double-header here to- day to tie for the pennant with San Francisco in tha greatest finish to the Coast League in history. The Kelly, clan won the opener, 6-1, be fore 4040 fans but dropped the nightcap, 1-0, to take sb? of seven in the series." The Angels had won eight straight games as they entered the final tiff of the scheduled season in one of the finest finish; drives known to baseball. Yet in that period they had man aged to pick up but half a gam on San Francisco's sassy Seals, The teams were tied, a gama to play. If Kelly's men. wera shaking their heads, as they started the last game, it was understandable.

The Seals will tangle with the Angels tomorrow evening in a one-game, sudden-death play-off at Wrigley Field at p.m. to decide the pennant win ner and who gets the $15,000 prize that goes with the flag, Either Cliff Chambers (23-9) Russ Bauers (10-8) will twirl for Los Angeles. Mesner Rains L.A. Rex Cecil, Solon slinger, pitched a masterful three-hitter to shut out the Angels in tha crucial finale. Red Lynn Had allowed but three hits going into the last half of the fifth in the night cap.

Ed FitzGerald tapped an easy one toward Bill Schuster and just as the Angel short fieldi er reached for the ball, it hit a dirt clod and bounded six feet over his head. An easy out was an important hit. The weak-hit. ting Alex Kampouris laid down a bunt but Fitzy was thrown out at second by the hustling Lynn. Cecil also bunted, sending Kampouris to second a3 Lynn threw Cecil out at first.

Lee Wells was walked, to enable a play to be made for any base, and then Steve Mesner sent Kampouris across the plate with the biggest run of the year, sa far as the Angels were con cerned, singling to center field. The Angels had opportunities today in this last game but, aft er belting Solon pitchers hard all week, they failed at the plate in tne clutches. Three different innings they had men on second with one or none out and could not push the runners across.

4 -i SEPTEMBER 29, 1947 when they bagged four touchdowns that the visitors must have thought they were in a bull ring. They didn't have a chance and their total showing for the day was a minus figure of 108 yards on running plays, mostly because their would-be passers were smeared. It was not much of a test for Sargenfs gang, the visitors be ing heavily outweighed and lack ing in much football ability. Friday night comes a different story, the College of Pacific Ti gers who had a walkaway of their own two nights ago when they shredded Willamette, 5o-0. Eight Cross Register Eight Loyolans crossed the goal line, one of them twice Ralph Gambina, the converted end, had a pair, and Bob Win ship, Jack Nixon, Eddie Heinz, Harold David, John Machado, Frank Frisco and Joe Chavez, one apiece.

Chavez and Paul King booted the field goals, from 14 and 7, respectively. Scoring was principally on long pushes and short gainers. Biggest single effort was a 44- yard pass and run from King to Nixon. One drive went 94 yards in 12 tlays. The visitors tallied when Bob Ayale of Loyola fumbled a punt, chased back to get it in his end zone and was tackled by Sergio Tello and a flock of others for a safety.

Best footballers for the Mexico team were Bill Ziaurriz, fullback; Manuel Resendiz, quarter, and Hector Cordoba, half. Coleeio Militar Whittman Iclesias A. Reyes Urutia Vaeaues Moreno Cristian!

has been renewed for four more years and the Irish are- flirting with the idea of adding U.C.L.A. so as to appear here every season Down in Dixie they say N.D.'s all signed for the Sugar Bowl game. SPORTS GIBLETS Glenn Davis of Army football fame had the cartilage removed from his knee last week and will be hospitalized for a spell A big-name specialist wielded the knife, probably a tip-off that Glenn will be playing pro football come '48 My old friend, Lamarr Butler, onetime vociferous Bruin rooter, has bought the. Spokane club in the Western International. Jack Kramer won't turn pro until after the 'Frisco tournament and when he does the announcement will be made from Chicago Buffalo comes here thi3 week-end to play the Dons That means a peek at George Ratterman, perhaps the best passer in pro football today Against the Chicago Rockets he completed 18 out of 31 for 294 yards, thereby breaking the All-America record of 285 yards set by Otto Graham a year ago The National League record is 433 yards by Sid Luckman in '43 Last year Bob Water-field completed 22 out of 29 throws for 312 yards against New York.

SPORTS FINGER BOWL I'm wondering if the town of Alhambra 13 making plans to give a monster welcome home banquet for Ralph Kiner after the big league baseball season ends As one of six players who have belted 50 or more home runs in one season the former Alhambra high school athlete richly deserves special recognition from hi3 home town Bob Brugge, star left halfback of the Ohio State team, is sidelined with injuries and won't play much for a spell Coach Wes Fesler isn't too worried, however, inasmuch as a chap named Rodney Swinehart has been going great guns in scrimmage sessions. Although Rodney starred in spring practice a year ago, he played only 32 minutes last fall But he's a ball of fire now Authorities at U.C.L.A. and Southern California are really burned up about the condition of the Coliseum You fans who sit in the stands may not notice it because a green dye has been used to cover the bare spots, but the turf is in very bad condition For many years the Coliseum's main source of revenue 'was provided by athletic teams from our two local universities the grass is gone before their teams can get into action That rodeo for the Sheriffs' Relief Association should be staged in summer rather than late August if the collegians are going to find any turf for their football games. ODDS AXD END ZONE Clark Shaughnessy says the Chicago Cardinals will win the National League, football crown Marty Brill, the old Notre Dame halfback, who scouts for the Boston "Tanks, says the Rams will win the championship Brill made hi3 choice before the Rams lost to New York and Shaughnessy made his before Cards had to score a touchdown in the last three minutes to beat the Yanks, 7 to 3 It looks like a wide-open race to me. Bo McMillin, football coach at Indiana says that George Taliaferro i3 the best back he ever' coached.

BY CHARLES CURTIS Bill Sargent's Loyola Lions tasted a bit of raw meat in the first quarter and, despite the stanchest efforts of the headman to hold his charges in check, they rolled up a 67-to-2 count on an outclassed Colegio Militar de Mexico football squad yesterday at Gilmore Stadium before 8500 fans. The count might have reached astronomical figures had the skipper so desired. As it was, it provided the biggest Lion tally since -a 73-0 rout of San Diego Army and Navy in 1923, which is the all-time Loyola record.

Sargent used every sub, including a guy who had been on the squad only two days. He limited the offense in the second half and even had the boys try field goals when it was first and 10 deep in Mexico territory. Two such tries worked; two missed. But the Lions, in their season's debut and first showing under Sargent, rocked the Mexico City boys so hard in the first quarter S.F.U. Routs Wolves, 37-1 3 SAN FRANCISCO, Sept.
