PADRES BEAT SEALS; ANGELS
 TRIM S0L0N5
(By The Associated Press)

(By The Associated Press)
 The San Francisco Seals had their points today-and that's all that was keeping them in first place.
 Virtually sharing the Coast League top roost were Los An geles and San Diego. Figured game wise, it was a three-way tie, hut the Seals had a 27-point bulge in the percentages.
 Rip Collins snappy Padres from San Diego hung l0-inning de- feat on the Seals, 4-3, as Los Angeles polished off Sacramento, 5-2, for the third straight night.
 Those were the only games play ed as rain took over at Seattle and Portland.
 The Padres took two-one series lead over the Seals when relief pitcher Xavier Rescigno ran home with the winning run on an error in the first extra inning.
 Both Portland and Seattle, will play doubleheaders tonight.

BOSTON, April 16.-tR-A series that many fans-and some experts also-think will be a preview of next falls World Series will begin at Braves Field today when the Boston National Leaguers entertain the rival American League Red Sox
 And it will look like a Pacific northwest reunion.
 Three Washington and Oregon athletes will be in the starting line up and a couple more are in the dugouts.
 The Braves will open with Snoho- mich's Earl Torgeson at first base and Seattle's Jeff Heath in left field; the Sox will have Johnny Pesky, Portland, at third base.
 Bobby Doerr, also of Portland and regular Red Sox second sacker, is sitting out the three game series with an ailing back, but Earl John- son, Seattle pitcher. probably will toll in one of the clashes. The two teams have divided their only two meetings thus far this season.
 City series also open in New York and Chicago today.
 The inter-league rivalries will be in full swing by tomorrow when the two St. Louis clubs and the Phila- delphia teams begin their sets.
 In New York it's review of the 1947 World Series with the Yankees entertaining the Brooklyn Dodgers in the first of three games.

rise in living costs is forcing
some teachers to change from
teaching to jobs in industry.
"The increase in the number
of children of school age is now
overcrowding the lower grades

Health Doctor
Kiwanis Speaker

Brief discussion of infantile
paralysis was given by DR.. w. S.
Ramsey, county health commits
Sioner, before the Kiwanis Club
here Monday evening. Following
his talk, DR.. Ramsey presented a
motion picture showing work of
the public health service.
DR.. Ramsey brought out the
pertinent, known facts concern
ing infantile paralysis in his brief
Introductory remarks, because the
infantile paralysis season" is well
under way.
Not a great deal is known yet
concerning the dread polio, DR.,
Ramsey said, although research
under auspices of the National
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis
is making strides ahead. AS pre-
cautions to be taken which are
believed to help prevent spread of
the disease are keeping children
away from crowds, keep them
from getting overly tired and their
resistance thus lowered, and keep
conditions sanitary.
By way of encouragement, DR.,
Ramsey pointed out that relative
ly few presonS ever are stricken
with infantile paralysis. Of those
who are, so percent experience
complete recovery, another '25
percent have but slight disability,
and only percent of the cases are
fatal.
DR.. Ramsey reported that there
have been three cases of polio
in Union County this year.
