CHAMPION'S BAD DAY TOP LADY Road Trip Is RocKy For Dodger Crew New York, Aug. 21 (U.R) The wobbly Brooklyn Dodgers were catching it from both ends today as the Cardinals roared down the home stretch in traditional style and the Pirates kicked up their heels in the cellar. It was a new version of the squeeze play, with the Dodgers' National league lead squeezed to one-half Capita Journal, Salem, Wednesday, 'A'ur. 21, 1946 5 Senators Split Games With Trailing Tigers Tuesday night was warm and sultry and so were Senators in the first game of a twin bill with Tacoma Tigers, dropping 4-3, but pent up bats exploded in the second tussle as local men pounded out a 10-3 decision that kept a restraining palm on the brow of fourth place visitors. Third sjiot Solons gave a turnout Idling Seals Add to Lead; Beavers Dip By United Press The San Francisco Seals found out today they don't even have to take the field to lengthen their lead in the Pacific Coast league.

Thanks to the Hollywood Stars, the idle Seals added a half game to their first place edge of 5 li games last night when Jimmy Dykes' crew downed the second-place Oakland Acorns 2 to 1 at Emery Pirates Rip Union Out I Rr "frr crowd of 2033 fans reason to come back for attendance rec ords this season in the second inning of the first fray. Crawford lead off with a single to left. Wenner chased him around with a long double to center. A wild pitch by Hedington and a fly ball to right by Souza scored Wenner. Knotted counts a standby throughout the game.

Tigers came back with two runs in the third on two hits coupled with a pair of walks. Joratz made the tilt more interesting with a homer over the right field fence in the fourth, and Tigers took the lead. Singles by Ed Kowalski and Duane Crawford in the fifth knotted the affair once more. Tacoma, third-place aspirants, salted the tilt in the final Inning on three hits for one run. Behind the port-side arm of Ken Wyatt, Senators rolled back in the second game with run splurges in the first, second and fourth innings.

Every man Manager Gullic used collected at least one hit. Long bails by Summers and Wenner paced the scoring in a game as wild as nearly extinct buffalo used to be.

The roaring Redbirds, who have won 14 of their last 19 games, captured their fourth in a row last night as Howie Pollet blazed his southpaw slants past the Boston Braves, yielding only three hits for a 4 to 1 victory and St.

Louis 14th in 19 games with Beantown-ers. The new anti-union Pirates made almost as notable a gain, walloping the Dodgers to move within a half a game of the seventh-place Phils who dropped a doubleheader to the Cubs. After rejecting the American Baseball Guild as their bargaining agent by a 15 to 3 score, the Pirates sauntered onto Forbes Field and riddled four Dodger pitchers for 10 hits and 10 to 0 victory, their seventh in their last nine games. Bobby Feller proved to Washington fans that he could throw a baseball 98.6 miles an hour in a pre-game test, but the unbelieving Senators rapped him for six hits and a to 4 victory over the dians. The Philadelphia Athletics turned on Southpaw Hal New-houser, rapping him for seven hits, a 2 to 0 victory and their fourth in 19 games with Detroit.

Joe DiMaggio muffed Bob Kennedy's long line drive with two out and the bases loaded in the sixth to climax a bad night for the Yankees and the White Sox routed the New Yorkers, 9 to 2.

His record as sponsor of the district championship softball nine is a story within itself of chance on fields of endeavor.

"Me? Oh, I haven't played a ball game since I caught for Willamette university back in 1926," the youthful-appearing druggist proclaimed after watching his team trounce Arnett's of Albany Monday night on Leslie field. "But ball games have always been in my blood," he added. "Take these fellows," Mootry waved an arm at back-slapping softballers around, "I really feel that they have championship qualities.

Pittsburgh, Aug. 21 (P) Robert Murphy and his American baseball guild struck out for the third time as Pittsburgh Pirate players formally rejected the guild in baseball's first collective bargaining election. Nineteen out of 31 eligible Pirates voted in the election conducted by the Pennsylvania labor relations board, yesterday, but only three went to bat for Murphy, Boston-born, Harvard-educated father of the guild. Murphy has refused to give up, however. He filed charges of unfair labor practices yesterday, against the Pittsburgh owners before the NLRB.

Similar charges were tossed out by the national labor board.

Mossor hurt a finger in San Francisco last Sunday and was sent back to Portland. As soon as he is ready to go he will don a. Solon uniform.

Everything Is Cheery Mootry has no qualms about this business of sponsoring a team in athletic competition. "No headaches attached as far as I'm concerned," he added. "I've enjoyed it all the way through. This is my first year, but it will not be my last." Maybe headaches of the migraine order just begin With professional circuits. Manager of the champions, Pete Hoffert, has another right idea on the sport.

When the season is over and the city crown won, strengthen the team.

Where Footballs Boom Back and Forth A punting duel with the best occurred in the opening minutes of the Chicago Rockets-Brooklyn Dodgers professional game in Multnomah stadium Sunday night.

Ail-American Glenn Dobbs started it off with a kick from the Dodger 20 that came to rest on the Rocket 15-yard line. Ex-Marine Walter Clay boomed the pigskin back from the Rocket 10 to the Dodger 10-yard marker. Punts that sailed 40 yards looked short during the fray. A Marine Corps color guard before the Rocket-Dodger clash proved very much in keeping with participants. Dick Hanley has 22 of his former Flying Marines of El Toro signed up with the Rockets.
