Seabiscuit was dead. And into the deep pit which the men had been all day digging, tender hands lowered his body and covered it up with the red earth. The men had finished now. And, rubbing their grimy sleeves across their faces, beaded by tears, they turned away.

One man remained. With fixed gaze, he looked upon the mound, and, picking up a shovel, he patted it down once more to shape it smooth. "Like losing one of the family," he said. Then Charles S. Howard, too, turned away, his head hidden in the crotch of an elbow.

Death had struck at midnight Saturday. And it had come stealthily, as if on tiptoes. There had been no warning illness. Virtually no hint of what was to happen. A few minutes before the stroke of 12, a stable hand had heard Seabiscuit cough.

It was nothing, he thought, but he had had his orders. So he summoned Dr. John W. Britton, resident veterinarian at the Howard ranch. Doctor Britton, kit in hand, had responded immediately.

But there was nothing he could do. "Acute heart failure," he said. "It takes a lot of thoroughbreds of this age." Seabiscuit was 14. V' IIS" "I' Once Was Greatest Money Winner Beloved of millions, Seabiscuit was at one time the greatest money winner in turf history. HOLLYWOOD, Slay 18.

Bob Joyce was victimized the first encounter, 5-1. Chesnes' win was his ninth against two losses. While the Stars stopped their own losing streak at eight games and halted the Seals win channel at six, they couldn't drag the Seals down from their two game lead at the top of the league. TWO SCORES. After being held to a single tally by "Mr.

Rescigno in the first contest, the Seals scored twice in the second inning of the nightcap. Ray Orteig singled through second. Matheson doubled. Bill Leonard was purposely walked to get at Chesty. Chesnes whacked the ball through the box into centerfield, scoring Orteig and Matheson.

Orteig singled after one was out in the fourth. Matheson whapped the ball over the left-field fence at the 360-foot mark, scoring Orteig ahead. SHUTOUT RUINED. Tony Lupien singled with one gone in the fourth and Al Libke doubled him to third. Tony scored on Ross' fly to left field to spoil Chesnes' ambition for a shutout.

The second game was played in a Hollywood haze. Today's 10,579 customers made the series total 37,759. Chesnes became the tenth Seals' chucker to finish his game in order. And, when Neil Sheridan singled off Krakauskas it marked the tenth consecutive game in which he has hit safely. Del Young, acting boss, was knocked out of his unique position as the only undefeated manager in organized baseball, when sleeping Hollywood power awakened in the early afternoon setto.

Xavier Rescigno, long-time suf-1 ferer from a sore arm, threw knucklers and flutterstuff that baffled the Seals who were squinting anyway in the bright sunlight At that, the Seals might have changed the course of the game if they had been a bit smarter running the bases. HITS THROUGH INFIELD. Hollywood knocked first in the second on hits through the infield by Libke and Ross, Davis' sacrifice and Skurski's infield out. The Twinks got another in the fourth on consecutive hits by Ross, Davis and Skurski after two were out. The Seals scored their lone run in the fourth when Sheridan singled and took second on Libke's misplay at left.

He was caught in a rundown on Sanders' drizzler but Bones galloped home when Don White doubled to deep center. Cox's single, opened a tirade against Joyce in the eighth and "Bones" Sanders abetted it when he fielded Lupien's bunt and foolishly threw to second trying to get Cox who was already there. Libke and Ross singled, scoring Cox and Lupien. Libke tallied on a force play. Don White's bad throw to first on Libke's single also aided the parade of Stars.

"Lefty" O'Doul was up today but confined to his hotel room by the flu virus. He will fly to San Francisco tomorrow but there is some doubt he can take charge Tuesday. He still has a slight temperature. Number Nine On the Line WAV Fit AM ISCO Hill. I.

That was the big one. Coming as it did after the Angels had won the opener, 5-2, it gave the Oaks the series by the odd game. It was the first series Los Angeles has lost and the fourth straight, all it has played, Oakland has won in its home park.

SORHNO HELPS OAKS. Soriano, on option from Pittsburgh, proved the kind of pitcher the Oaks need. He throws hard. Pumping a live fast ball in there, he struck out six. His change up stuff was effective, too.

Further, it was the first game he ever pitched in which he didn't walk batter. Poor control has plagued him in the past. Maurice Van Robays, who Is stretching and catching the throws around first base like he was born on the bag, batted in the only run. Glenn Crawford blooped one back of shortstop in the fourth and stole second. Van then hit Red Lynn's 3-2 fast ball for a smashing run-registering single.

Those were two of the three hits Lynn allowed as he made a bold bid for his second series triumph. Only one Angel got as far as second base. He was Johnny Os-trowski who doubled high up on the left field fence. When he struck out Lou Stringer to end the game, Soriano rushed in and embraced Billy Raimon-di. He was as happy as a high school kid.

It was a particularly noteworthy performance since he didnt arrive until Friday after driving across the country. STRINGER BELTS GASSAWAY Stringer wasn't so easy for Charley Gassaway. The best defensive second baseman in the league belted his sixth homer with an Angel on base in the sixth and that put the crusher on Charley. Ray (Pappy) Prim, the forty-ish, graying lefthander, made his first start of the season a winning one. After Stringer's smash he was never in trouble.

The runs made off him earlier were unearned. All the Oak fans could do as the innings passed was cheer the fielding of Vince DiMaggio. The guy can still go and get them. Wearing seven league boots, he made nine putouts and some of the liners were labeled extra base hits. Attendance for the series totalled 49,824.

At the beginning, they hadn't thought too much of the horse which was to become one of racing's all-time greats. Possibly, it was his looks they hadn't liked. Seabiscuit was smallish and not much to look at. But, mister, what a heart he had. And how he could mow 'em down in the stretch!

(Belgium leads, 3-0.) titled him to recognition among baseball's greats, but his career in the major leagues ended under the cloud of the "Black Sox scandal" and his proper place in the legends of the game consequently never has been certain. Chase was not accused of being involved in the rigging of the 1919 World Series but he acknowledged in later years he had been tipped in advance that the series, in which the Chicago White Sox were overwhelming favorites against the Cincinnati Reds, had been fixed. When the investigation into the throwing of the series started, Chase was out of baseball and back in his native California but was io vo w'wi," he first be paid his transports tion and $500 for his time and the inveStigatorS Completed their job without him. happened to be passing through Baltimore with the New York-bound St.

Mary's football team at the time. The East was solidly behind War Admiral and while we had come to root for Seabiscuit, we got the feeling that the California owned horse didn't stand much chance first time we saw War Admiral and the 'Biscuit together. They presented a striking contrast. The Admiral was a proud and handsome fellow, every inch a thoroughbred. The 'Biscuit-well, he reminded you of a guy who had showed up in overalls for a fancy ball.

Eastern bookmakers, sure of their champion, offered fantastic prices against Seabiscuit. And eastern millionaires and society dudes, squatting in their clubhouse boxes, chunked it in on the Admiral and counted their wagers as good as won. You should have seen their faces after the race! Seabiscuit didn't have to cut loose with one of his come-from-behind performances. He got out in front and stayed there and won by four lengths. It was a walkaway.

And yet, so lightly had the 'Biscuit been regarded that he paid better than two to one in a two-horse field! Seabiscuit's greatest race, though, was in the Santa Anita Handicap of 1940. Twice before he had failed in the classic "hun-nert grander" failed by a nose each time. Rosemont had edged him out in '37 and the lightly weighted Stagehand had nipped him the following year. They Said He Was Through All chance of winning seemed lost to Seabiscuit when he broke down in 1939. It was predicted then that he was all through.

And even if his injury mended he'd be too old to amount to much, people said. The 'Biscuit was out for a year. Then, in dramatic fashion, he came back not only to win the "hunnert grander" but set a track record in doing it. And he packed 130 pounds that day, remember! "No doubt of it," 31r. Howard said, "that was his greatest race." It also was his last.

He had achieved his goal. He had won more money than any other horse up to his time. And now a proud and grateful owner would give him his just reward. "Seabiscuit will never raee again," Howard promised, and he was as good as his word. The gallant old campaigner was retired to Mr.

Howard's Northridge Ranch, near Willits. There he held his court. There he sired more than 100 colts. There he browsed in knee deep clover. There, Saturday at midnight, he died.

And there, in a grave dug directly in front of the Howard ranch house, he was burled last evening. White. Welle. RRF Somenzl. SO Somenzl 1.

Hal Chase never has been challenged as the greatest fielding first baseman of the past.

His fielding prowess always ov ershadowed his batting and In the years since he ended his ma jor league career with the 1919 New York Giants, memory of his hitting has grown dim.
