LEADING ANGELS FIND kATS WITH
 BUlLT-iN BLOWS
Seraphs Rattle 20 Base Knocks Off Oaks -Beav-
 CTS Secure Third
By BILL BECKER Associated Press Sports Writer)

Base hits are the best balm for baseball blues, say the Los Angeles Angels.
 The Angels connected for 20 big blows last night to defeat Oakland, 10-6. squaring their series at two games each, and stretching their Pacific Coast League lead to 5i2 games.
 Second place San Francisco lest a length as Hollywood snapped a three-game losing stretch with 3-2 decision. Don Ross, with four-for- four, led the Stars 14-hit attack on Bob Joyce while Xavier Rescigno set the Seals with with seven.
 Vince Dibiasi edged Tony Freitas in 4-3 duel as Portland gained un- disputed third place with a win over Sacramento. Eddie Basinskis two- run double in the ninth put the Beavers over. The loss made the Solons sole occupants of the eel lar.
 Seattle's Dick Barrett pitched the Rainiers to a 5-1 victory over Sar Diego. Barrett, in winning his 18th stepped the Padres with six hits ano earned runs. The Fades Al Treichel also yielded only six blows, but four errors gave the Studs three gift tal- lies. Four runs in the first frame were all Seattle needed.

For the first three innings of last evenings ball game between the Task Unit Submariners and the Juneau All Stars it looked as though the All Stars were going to be blanked. That was before the fourth inning.
 Actually, it should never have happened, bu, for a series of er- TOTS by the tluejackets. Guy cpered the bottom half of the fourth with a single, followed by Dean and Houston Snow ground cd to Webster on the mound, whc errored; then Berry missed For sythe's fly to center.
 Jensen and Hagerup both flied out, but from then on anything seemed to bring in a run. Every body hit, and everybody scored one or two runs. Earl Forsythe hit a triple with the bases loaded scoring Dean, Houston and Snow Guy was up three times before he made the final out.
 Except for that fourth inning tha Submariners played a very good brand of baseball, showing up well both in tta field and at the plate. Their hitting was consis- tent and effective.

Associated Press Sports Writer)
 That glossy pennant picture, as painted only the other day by Ed die Dyer, master manipulator of the St. Louis Cardinals, appeared today to have become somewhat blurred.
 Despite Dyer's assertion, fol- lowing St. Louis recent series with the Dodgers, that it would be a fight right down to the wire with the Cards winning it. it was doubtful whether the unpredict- aLIe Redbirds have ever been worse off than at this moment
 Beaten for the second time in three games by the lowly Phillies Ill Philadelphia last night, the Cards skidded to six full games behind the front-running Brook lyn team in the hectic National League race.
 The Brooks, unlike the Cards, continued to fatten up on the sec cna division outfits, eking out 8 6-5 victory in 12 hard-fought in pings at Ebbets Field.
 A ninth inning home run by Al Lakeman, with one on, won for tte Phillies 4-2 TEe four-base blow was a climax to a pitching duel between Dutch Leonard of tke Phils and Harry CThe Cat) Brecheen of the Cards There was one out when Lakeman, .l43 hit ter filling in for the injured first baseman Howie Schultz, cracked the tall into the left field seats.
 Bob Teller pitched his 18th vic- tory of the season as the Cleve- land Indians swept a double head CT frcm the American League leading Yankees.
 Ted Williams collected six hits in seven times at bat as the Bos- ton Red Sox divided a double leader with the White SoX in Chicago. Williams got two hits in thlee times in the first game and four for four in the second which was won by Boston 6-3. The

 After appearing in 37 games in relief roles for the Chicago Cubs, Emil Rush held the Boston Braves 10 four hits for 5-l victory while making his first l947 start.
 The New York Giants increased their season home run output to 166 when Will Marshall, Walker Cooper and Mickey Whitek slam med four baggers to lead them to an 8-7 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates at the Polo Grounds.
 After absorbing double defeat at the hands of Washington on Thursday, the Detroit Tigers re- taliated by winning two from the Senators in Detrcit 7-6 and 20

Extensive Search
Is Being Made for
Mrs. Estelld Walk

w. c. Cox, probate genealo-
glst, POS S. LaSalle St., Chi
cago, is directing the search
for Mrs. Estella Walk, who
would be in her sixties if liv-
ing, or her children Or grand
children, if she is dead, heir of
a small estate of about $4,000
of which they have obviously
never heard.
Cox, who specializes in trac-
ing missing relatives to settle
estates, said that Mrs. Walk
was born about 1885 or 1890
and is known to have settled
in Montana with her husband,
Louis, subsequent to their mar
riage. Available records, how
ever, fail to indicate in what
locality in the state.
Only Mrs. Walk. if she is still
alive, or her direct descend
ants, such as children or grand
children, may claim the estate.
There is evidence that eithe.
she or her descendants were
still living in Montana in re-
cent years, Cox said.

Prize Winning Essay
Is Written
By Mdridn Gray

Marian Gray, one of ten
grade school student winners
in the "Best Teacher contest
sponsored by the Quiz Kids,
will receive 81 in cash and a
gold plated pin making her an
honorary Quiz Kid.
Miss Gray's essay follows:
ITO me, Miss sigma Dahl was
my best teacher. She has
taught the fourth grade in the
Hardin public schools for the
last twenty years. Miss Dahl
taught me to be clean in
thought, deed and word. She
taught me to be courteous,
kind, and considerate of others
and was always a perfect ex-
example of these virtues herself
"Her room was full of the
right kind of friends which
made me want to live a better
life. She presented her sub
jects in such an interesting
way, even the hardest lessons
were fun and it was a pleasure
to study and recite in her class
room.
"Her school room was always
neat, clean and filled with
pleasant happy faces. I looked
forward to each school day and
didn't want to miss even a few
minutes of the time I could be
near her"

had come here In hope Of beneflting
his health.
DR.. Samuel p. Benbrook, his ply
|sician. attributed the cleric's death
to a heart attack.

Houghton had suffered yesterday
morning recurrence Of the Illness
which had been afflicting him. Police
said he locked himself in the bath
