PACIFIC COAST
LEAGUE GAMES

Hollywood rode the insecure crest
of Pacific Coast league leadership
by the margin of half game to-
day after another page of upsets in
second half play was written Friday
night.
The San Francisco Seals, who
clung 20 the top rung for only one
day. were in second place. Los Ar
geles and the only lowly Seattle
club were tied for third. Sacra-
mento and Missions were tied for
fourth with a SEQ average.
II all happened when Hollywood
beat Sacramento TO 2, Portland
beat San Francisco 2 to l, Seattle
won over Los Angeles y to 9, and
Missions stopped Oakland 9 to 0.
1t was Seattles fourth consecu-
tive victory over the first half win
ners. The surprising Indians ruin
cd Fay Thomas chance to tie a
Coast league record that has stood
since 1909. Thomas had won Is
games for the Angels without a
break. The record for consecutive
pitching wins is l6 established by
Frank Browning Of San Francisco
25 years ago. J. Millard Campbell
replaced Thomas as the Indians
scored seven runs in the fifth in
ming.
The Tribe started with a bang,
scoring three runs in the first in
ming on Hunts homer The An
gels took a one-run advantage ~
the fifth when Statz and Thomas
homered. Undismayed, the Indians
scored seven runs in their half Of
the inning, aided by Sheely's cir
cult c,out. The Angels came right
back and scored five runs in the
sixth but the Tribe eased out of
danger with a run in the sixth and
the final run in the seventh. Los
Angeles outhit Seattle IS TO 9.
HOLLYWOOD was outhit to 10 BY
The Senators who used Lou Koupal
on the mound against Sullivan. The
Stars scored in the first inning and
added three in the fifth, as Sulli-
van kept his hits scattered. The
stars won the series edge by a
game.
Portland broke through for its
first series win on the strength o.
two home runs. 1t looked as though
Brames five-hit pitching was going
TO be wasted but in the eighth m
ming Loane homered and tied the
game. In the ninth Clsbaugh rap

allowing them only six scattered
hits as Mission collected II off
Douglas and Walsh. The Reds
scored eight of their runs in the
first three innings and let Osborne

TIRE TROUBLE
RU|NOUS FOR
TOURING JOYS

One flat tire is worse than two
traffic tie-ups in delaying a vaca-
tion-bound motorist, car-owners are
reminded by j. B. NfcNeece, of Nc
Neece and McNeece, local Good
year dealers.
Not only is it an inconvenience.
but it is a major road hazard in
that car parked in the road for
tire-changing invites an accident.
he points out Statistics show that
hundreds of summer time accidents
are caused in this manner every
year.
"Tire changing is one of the
bugaboos of summer driving; a hot.
dusty. temper taking task that
should and could easily be avoid
ed McNeece says. mo car
should be taken out on a long trip
with smooth, worn tires. The driv-
er who takes a chance that a
tire will last the trip is risking, if
not his own life and that of his
family. at least his enjoyment OF
the trip if anything gees wrong.
If it is important to check the
brakes before leaving on a trip, it
is doubly important to check the
tires-because while the brakes
stop the wheels, t's the tire that
stops the car. Smooth tires with
no grip simply cannot accomplish
thiS.'
Modern touring-weather traffic,
with cars rushing along scarcely a
length apart, demands that the tires
have heavy, sturdy center traction
to provide the friction necessary
for a sudden stop, he explains.
Formerly this treatment took
heavy toll of a tire, but today IS
new tire is specially built to stand
this kind of hard usage. The new
Goodyear "G-3,o for example,
tested in every conceivable way,
gives 43 per cent more non-skid
mileage than any tire that ever
preceded it-and yet costs no more.
Under these circumstances, the
wise driver realizes it is an invest
ment in time, money and safety
to start off on the vacation trip
with new tires" he concludes.

WIMBLEDON, Eng, July Z. =
"Primo Camera still is heavyweight
champion of the world"
"Carnera was robbed of his title
by some fantastic American boxing
laws"
"Baer undoubtedly is the finest
wrestler ever to hold the boxing
championship.
These are a few of the opinions
expressed by England's leading fight
critics after a showing here of the
pictures of the fight in Madison
Square Garden bowl. All of the ex-
perts admitted they were absolute
ly bewildered by the decision which
gave Max Baer the title.
The flash written by Frank Wa
ters, and splashed all over the front
page of the Daily Express, is typi-
cal of the British critics. Listen
to Waters:
"I have just seen the Camera

Every boxing critic in London
who has seen the film is dumb

Baer the title.
"Baer won the first and eleventh
rounds.
"Otherwise he gained scarcely .

For nine rOu.idS his mSchanlcal

off Baer's face. But although Car

hit him whenever he wanted to, he
did not seem to hurt him.
"Carneras blows never ruffled

in every round.

COUPLE SPLIT

The separation of Charles Ray, film

ordinary fight in an extraordinary
way. He introduced Baer as the
California Adonis, on whom We all
pin our faith to bring back the
championship of the world
He certainly did under some
fantastic American boxing laws.
In the film Camera never SEEM
ed down for more than three sec
onds. and twice when he was down
the film shows he was attacked
and hit by Baer. How Baer es-
capped disqualification for this is
incomprehensible. At least a dozen
times Baer pummeled Carnera be-
low the belt. The referee took no
notice. How, then, did Carner3
lose? He fell heavily in the first
round and hurt his ankle. All
through the subsequent rounds he
was obviously lame Despite this
he completely outclassed Baer with
out hurting him.
IF you see this film, and you
know anything about boxing, you
will form the opinion that Baer
did not beat Camera and never will
beat him. even if he waits to grow
as big as Primo"
For your information 1 might
add that Waters, as did every other
British critic. picked Carnera to
win in a walk. 1t might be that
Waters looked at the film through
slightly biased eyes. As for me,
who. as usual. picked the winner, it
seemed q nice, clean fight. in which
Carnera was accorded every consid-

REHEARSALS BEGIN
FOR OLDEST OPERA
VIRGIL Thomson Writes Lucid
Music for Gertrude
STEMS Text.
1y the Associated Press.

1y the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 6.-Perhaps
the oldest musical undertaking of the
new year so far is the forthcoming
production of the Gertrude Stein-Virgil
Thomson -Four Saints iii Three Acts
next month in Hartford, Conn.
1t is odd for innumerable reasons, for
one, the opera is actually about st.
Theresa of Avila and st. Ignatius,
which is only two saints. For another,
there are two st. ThereSa's in the opera,
standing for the same person.
= For q third, although Mr.. Thomson
Is a modernist composer, the score it
self is almost pellucid in its clarity. For
still another, the text is in Miss STEMS
most abStruSe manner, SO abStruse that
Mr.. Thomson himself confeSSeS that he
doesn't understand all of it, even though
he put music to it. This is sample:
Pigeons on the grass alas.
. Pigeons on the grass alas.
Short longer grass short longer
Shorter yellow grass"
And this is from the introduction:
ITO know to know to lover her SO.
Four saints prepare for saints.
It makes it well fish"
Cast of Negroes.
AS if this were not enough, it has
been decided that the entire cast shall
be of Negroes, partly because, Mr..
Thomson feels, Negroes are content if
the words sing well and not apt to
worry because they don't understand
them.
Although the opera is to have its
world premiere in Hartford under the
auspices of a small club known as "The
Friends and Enemies of Modern Music"
most of the preliminary work is being
Philips Church, to be exact. There
Mr.. Thomson daily rehearses the
singers, and Frederick Ashton of Lon
don works with the dancers.
The auditors will be expected to fol-
low the story as much through the
choreography as through the text. As
Mr.. Thomson points out smilingly:
You don't usually understand the
text of most opera, do you? Why worry
about Miss STEMS incomprehensibility,'
then?'

April l7.-Counsel for E. Wade Ball,

March 16 in which to perfect an ap-
peal to the United States Supreme
Court without further action on the
part of the local court. it was decided
yesterday by Judge Walter T. Nc

On March 16, the State Supreme
Court of Appeals denied writ of er-
ror in the Ball case and Judge Nc
Carthy today was requested to continue
the bond for 80 days. He at first ex-
pressed some doubt as to whether he
had this authority, but finally decided
after hearing arguments by counsel
that the Federal statute allowing go
days for preparation of appeals to the
United States Court covered the sit
uation.
Ball is under sentence of two and a
