The Seals and the Missions came
through with victories Wednesday
while Portland, Seattle. and Los
Angeles, the clubs still within strik-
ing distance of the top. were taking
it on the chin.
The Seals owe their 4-2 victory
over Oakland yesterday to Joe Di-
maggio'S sensational hitting and
little Roy Joiner's alright south
paw mound work. Dimaggio hit two
triples. a double and a single to
score three of the Seals runs and
drive the other one across the
plate.
The Missions emerged trium-
phant by a 1913 score in a blister
ing l4-inning battle with the Sc
attic Indians.
Portland ran into some uneXpect-
edly stout pitching from Holly
woods staff to take 20 defeat.
Berlie Horne, a Mission discard,
started for Hollywood and lasted
until the sixth when a drive from
the bat of Pitcher Bill Posedel of
the Beavers struck him on the
head.
Los Angeles fell before the Sac
giant killers, 1910, in a
loosely played game.

BY HENRY SUPER
ted Press Staff Correspondent


NEW YORK. Aug. 29.-Those
rough-houSe ST. Louis Cardinals are
courtine the baseball fates, and
what's more they're getting away
with it.
Refusing to take a tip from other
teams who met disaster by flirting
with the diamond gods before a
pennant was won, the Cardinals al
ready have started making world
series preparations.
The confidence involved in such
a move is no better illustrated than
by comparing the Giants with the
conservative Detroit Tigers in the
American league. The Tigers sit
atop the circuit nine games ahead
of the New York Yankees. yet Pre-
sident Frank Navin refuses to talk
about the title series.
When the Tigers clinch the pen
nant then we'll talk world series"
he says.
The Cardinals took the National
league lead from the New York
Giants on Sunday Tuesday the
front office sent out a circular to
fans entitled important notice
world series tickets"
This affront to the wall-eyed
gods of baseball came when the
Cardinals led the league only by
half a game Today they lead by
2la games and are putting on a
drive reminiscent Of that year
ago when they captured the PEN
nant from the Giants in the last
days of the campaign.
Giants Skid
The Giants started world series
preparations back on July II when
they led the league by Tx games. A
few days after it became known
that the runway behind home
plate was being altered with world
series traffic in mind the Giants
hit their slump and they still are
skidding.
Yesterday they dropped a double

PERMITS READY
 IN THREE WEEKS
Many Local Liquor Estab- Iishments Caught in
 Tie-up

Reports from Hartford today in- dicate that local liquor dispensers who have not obtained their new licenses yet, will have to wait per- haps at least three weeks before the liquor commission will be able to send out all of the permits. The commission is rushed in the mailing out of licenses and 1t is believed that all three weeks will be needed to take care of each applicant.
 Yesterday, local authorities an nounced prosecution will result against ali establishment owners who continue to sell liquor after September 1 or thereafter, unless in possession of new license.
 More than 200 local establish ments are expected to be affected by the failure of the commission to forward licenses to them. Yes. terday's records at the superior court office showed that only about 150 local applicants had re. ceived licenses while last year there were approximately 400 per mittees. It is expected a number o1 licenses by tomorrow night.
 The liquor law passed by the General Assembly provides that nc liquor permittee can sell liquor af. ter September 1, without a new Ii. cense. This law does not permit an extension of time to those per. mitees who have applied for Il. censes within the prescribed time three weeks before September 1 and who have not obtained them

NO CLUE ABOUT MISSING FLYER

New York, Aug. 30-(UP)- All the eastern United States was searched today for Donald k. Phillips, wealthy amateur aviator, missing with his plane for three days.
 Phillips took off from Roosevelt fiedl in his Stimson monoplane for Providence, R. I. Wednesday morn- ing. From there he planned to fly to the Cleveland air races. So far as authorities could learn, he never reached Providence.
 Coast Guard vessels searched Long Island Sound and the coast line along which Phillips would have flown without finding single trace. The land segments of the route to Providence also were searched.
 His family believed he might have decided at the last minute to fly somewhere else and neglected to notify them. There was also the possibility that storms had forced him to make a landing at some isolated spot. Authorities feared he may have been killed or seriously injured in Q crash.
