SAN DIEGANS
WIN TIL | r D
FROM BEAVERS

SAN DIEPO, Oct. l. U,P) - San
Diego came within a game of win
ming the Pacific Coast league cham
pionship Thursday when the Padres
hammered out a 81 victory over
Portland in the third game of the
four best-out- game playoff
series.
Again it was Thompson, San Die
go outfielder, who was the big noise
in the Padres victory. With two
runners on base in the second after
one run had come across, Thompson
poked a home run over the right
field wall, clinching the contest.
Although Manuel Salvo was touch
ed for u hits he proved more steady
than Radonits in the clutch and in
one inning forced a Portland bat
ter to hit into a double play, re-
firing the side with three runners
on base. San Diego hit safely in
every inning, collecting 10 in all
from Radonits.

nounced, both John Wilson, assistant
United States attorney, who prosecuted
Mcneil, and Capt. M. M. Barnard
general superintendent of District
penal Institutions said a prisoner
should have to serve the maximum of
his first term and the minimum of the
second before he became eligible. The
boards position was guided by a rul-
ing by the corporation counsel's office
when the parole body was created.
The board today did not debate this
collateral question, but referred to
eight months as McNeils minimum
sentence"
Justifying its rejection of parole fol
Mcneil, the board said:
1.-The people of the District, in re.
cent years, have suffered far too much
injury from persons in positions oi
trust, who betrayed their trust for per-
sonal advantage, with careless disre-
gard for the rights of others and fol
the suffering caused by their wrong
doing. The feeling Of the public or
this subject is probably such that
there would be doubt about the will
ingness of the community to assist in
the rehabilitation of the applicant il
he were released after serving only
eight months"
The board members-Wilbur La Roe
jr.; DR.. Emmett j. Scott and Frank R
Jelleff-found that Mcneil had a good
record during imprisonment, but this
did not sway their judgment as to the
minimum of his punishment.

two charges Of conspiracy and SEN
fenced to consecutive terms of from
four months to two years, has been
denied release on parole. the District
Board of Indeterminate Sentence and

Mcneil. who is 40, has been impris-
oned about nine months. He was con-
victed of conspiring to embezzle
$4,000 and of conspiring to commit
grand larceny in the sum of S50,000.

executive vice president of the bank,
who committed suicide after officials
started an investigation of the bank S
accounts.
McNeil's application for parole re-
