 The Angels were a full five games on top of the Coast League heap today after taking a five-to-two game series win over Hollywood capped by a 8-7, 3-l sweep of Sun days doubleheader.
 Oakland helped the Angels lengthen their margin by taking a 4-3 series from second place San Francisco The Oaks drubbed the Seals. 15-4, Saturday then clinched the issue by taking yes terdays opener, 4-1 before bow ing, 6-2, in the ni.-fcap.
 Tai End Race
 The tailenders closed ground as seyenth-place San Diego double whacked Portland, 5-3 and 1l-4 largely on home-run king Max Vests three belts, and Seattles cellar -dwellers two timed Sacra- mento, Az and l2-2. The series went to San Diego, 5-4, and Se- attle, 52.
 Tn addition to timely hitting, the Angels got three-hit, nine stIikeout pitching job from south paw Dutch Mccall in the seventh inning closer, his best job since joining the club
 Stars Dimmed Out
 Virtually the only consolation for the dimmed-out stars was Jim Del sings two-run homer and bases loaded double in the first game. A crowd of 21,710 boosted series attendance to 73,285. a new one week high for Los Angeles.
 Two home runs by Vince Di- Maggie paced the Oaks morning victory on their home field. In the afternoon, across the bay, the Seals got seven-hit pitching from Jack Brewer and sewed up the game with four runs in the seventh to keep Oakland in third place.
 West Shows Elm
 West, the former National Leag- uer, brought his circuit clout total to g, equalling the Padre record set by Ted Williams in 1887. The leagues leading fence-buster drove in six runs to make life pleasant for Padre pitchers Al Treichel and Tom Seats. It was Seats sixth straight victory.
 Seattle racksd up it's wins main- ly on tight pitching by Herman Besse and Walt Dubiel in the open CT and Bill Posedel in the finale. Lou Novikoff's 14th homer led the 12-Eit closing assault.
