HAMMERS IN DOUBLE WIN OVER SUNDAY.
By BILL BECKER

Associated rress SportswIiJer
 The Seattle Ra..-iers are the talk of the Pacific Coast League today.
 Riding to two shutout victories over the hard-hitting Sacramento Solons Sunday, 60 and To, the Rainiers wound up with 6-l magin for the series, the firsc they've won this season.
 The wins ran Seattle's streak to five straights-the longest for the ncrtherners and seemed to serve notice to the other clubs that Jo- Jo White finally has his veteran club squared away and out of the cellar for good.
 The double calsomine job was served up by Kewpie Dick Barrett and Sig Jakucki. The aging right handlers gave up seven hits be- tween them in 16 innings.
 The results left the Rainiers in a fairly solid seventh place, two and one-half games ahead of the Hollywood Stars who ran their losing string to eight straight seasons worst-before finally win ming the first game of a twin bill from league-leading San Francisco by a 5-1 score. The Stars Xavier Rescigno bested Bob Joyce.
 The Seals, behind another slick pitching job by young Bob Ches- nes, bounced back to take the nightcap, Al, and hang up an- other 6-1 series slam. It was Chesnes' ninth win-tops for the loop against two defeats.
 The Angels came a cropper in Casey Stengel's bustling Oaks and lost their first series of the year four games to three. After Ray Prim's six-hitter gave the Angels the opener, 52, the Oaks Dewey Soriano shaded Red Lynn in a 10 duel. The win enabled the Stengelites to shoulder their way into the first division for the first time, a half-game ahead of fifth place San Diego.
 San Diego-as have all visitors at Portland-had a tough week twin bill and coming out on the twin bill and comin gout on the short end of a 5-2 series count.
 Ed Vitalich hurled the Padres to a five-hit, 5-2 decision in the first game, but the Beavers rallied be- hind Jack Galveston to run off with the finale, 9-4.
 The Beavers thus found them selves in third place, four games lack on the Seals. If they could approximate their home pace while on the road, the Oregonians would be topping the circuit. At home, they've won Is, lost 10. On the road. the Beavers have nabbed only seven while dropping l2.

BALL SEASON OPENS; ELKS
 BEAT LEGION

Under a blue sky and a bright sun, the baseball season opened yesterday afternoon on a fast, dry diamond at Firemen'S Park. The Elks took the game after slow four innings, when in the top hall of the fifth they scored four runs against two for the Legion.
 The. Legion made three runs in the sixth and one in the seventh inning; but the Elks came back with four more runs in the eighth, and final tally in the last period.
 Leadoff pitcher Mark Jensen of the Elks was batting star ol the day. He ran up .750 average with three hits out of four trips to the plate, one long home run swat over the center field fence.
 Both teams showed up well for their first game, displaying a lot of snap at home and particularly in the field. Losing couple of fly balls in the sun out in left field hurt the Legion somewhat, how ever.
 If the brand of ball displayed at the first game is indicative of the remainder oi the season, Juneau ball fans will be treated to some exciting moments out in Bremen Ball Park.

 Hard SwaiS
 By Leiiers
By JOE REICHLER


 Some have called it a slump. Others have called it just "a slow start
 But it was apparent today that the trouble with the world cham pion St. Louis Cardinals is that the rest of the National League has been ganging up on them with an unorthodox barrage of lefthanded pitchers.
 Including their double deieat by the Philadelphia Phillies yesterday which incidentally sunk them deeper into the cellar, seven full games off the pace-the frustrated Redhirds have been beaten by sCuthpaws II times this season against only two wins against port side pitching
 Gang Up On Cards
 In 27 games, rival managers have started lefthanders against them Is times and on IA occasions were rewarded with victories. One game ended in a tie and the Cards won the other three. That is a far cry from last year when the Redbirds won 36 games from lefthanders against only "A defeats for a per centage Of GOO that was just 23 points off their seasons average. After Ken Heintzelman, ex-Prite, held the Cards to nine hits in the opener to beat them 6-3, Ken Raf- fensberger blanked the Cards through 12 innings to win the night cap To.
 Except for the Cards, the Nation al League pennant race resembles mob scene with only a game and a half separating the first place Boston Braves and the sixth place Pittsburgh Pirates.
 The Braves retained their half game edge over the New York Gi- ants by splitting a double header with the Reds in Cincinnati, win ming the second game behind Red Barrett, 3-1 after EWell Blackwell of the Reds had outpitched Mort Cooper in the opener 2-1.
 Giants In Second Spot
 After the Pittsburgh Pirates had overcome a 6-1 New York lead in the opener to win 7-6, the Giants came back to take the abbreviated inning nightcap 11-6 to re- tain second place
 The Dodgers ended a skein of Is scoreless innings by tallying four times ill the seventh to down the Cubs Az before a record Chicago crowd of 46.572 admissions.
 Bobby Teller made his first start of the season at Yankee Stadium a success by turning back the New York Yankees 5-3, gaining his fifth victory against three setbacks.
 Senators Lose Two
 Scoring two runs in the ninth inning of each game, the Chicago White Sox took the measure of Washington's Senators twice in the Capitol City Az and 3-2
 Philadelphia's surprising Athletics moved into sixth place, only four and half games behind the first place Detroit Tigers, by trimming the St. Louis Browns twice at Shibe Park 4-3 and 5-2.
 Rain washed out the scheduled double header between the Tigers and second place Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. They are slated to try again today in a pair.
 Sundays short scores: American League Detroit at Boston 2, postponed, rain.

Bad Politics

The House Appropriations Com
mittee has some color of reason to
20 after the scalp of Edgar L. War
rem, director of the Federal Concilia-
ton Service.
The case against Mr.. Warren is
far from being a conclusive one.
Some years ago he joined two Com
munist front organizations, but,
according to his testimony, withdrew
when he discovered their true char
acter. 1t is also established that in
1e45 he expressed a belief in the
"theoreticaI' right of Government
workers to strike, although he now
says that he has changed his mind
about this. On the other side of the
ledger are the facts that he has done
a creditable job as head of the con-
ciliation service and that he enjoys
the confidence of many business
leaders.
On the whole record, however, it
would be difficult to say that Con-
gress would be wholly unjustifled in
coming to the conclusion that Mr..
Warren is the wrong man for the job
he holds. But that is an entirely
different thing from saying that the
Appropriations Committee is justi-
fed in the action it has taken.
NIL hnnY1 ~
tent merely to lock the door on Mr..
Warren. Instead, through an abuse
of it's control of the purse, it has
assumed a veto power over the filling
of Mr.. Warrens post and the posts
of about 100 other executives and
employees of the Cancellation service.
The effect of this is to wreck the
service by withholding essential ap-
propriations.
Similar action was taken with
respect to the National Labor Rela-
tions Board. Some members of the
committee wanted to abolish the
NLRB outright. Others, presumably
conscious of the absurdity of this
while the Wagner Act remains on
the statute books, insisted on a
compromise" So the result is that
an already understaffed agency
finds its recommended appropria-
ton cut in half, and is faced with
the prospect of being held re-
sponsible for a task for which the
committee will not provide the nee
essary funds.
This sort of thing is not only bad
government; it is also bad politics,
as the Republican legislators may
discover to their sorrow.

$125 cash and the Government completes
the down payment, while if the occupant
wished to buy his home he would have
to pay $4,000 cash or more. OF course,
this was impossible for most of us.
For three months we have been
searching without success for an apart
ment or house to rent which would ac-
commodate us and still be close enough
to the D. C. Society Crippled Children's
School to keep our daughter in school.
Everywhere we go we are told that there
is nothing listed for rent, there hasn't
been a rental for months, sorry no chill
dren, sorry we keep no waiting list,
sorry the waiting list is closed, but, would
you like to buy? Are you GI? Too
bad! How much could you put down?
Even those few places which at least
accept our name have rents which are
at least 25 per cent higher than we have
ever paid. BY all means we would like
to buy home and settle down for keeps
but that is made impossible by large
down payments and large monthly pay
ments for a few years to protect real
estate men against future losses. We
firmly believe the GIs should be taken
care of five of our brothers are GIs)
but they do get most of the breaks now.
We have none. We must do the best
we can without expecting break.
What is going to happen to us? Are
we to be turned out into the streets or
our families to remain separated or to
separate? Some concrete plans should
be drawn up and put through with all
haste.
