BANNERS MAKE Y TWO IN ROW OVER
 LOS ANGELES CLUB
By BILL BECKER

There's growing suspicion around the Coast League that San Francisco's Lefty Werle, in his fifth season with the Seals, is fin ally ready for the big time.
 The 26-year-old southpaw check ed the rush of Portland's Beavers with 3-2 setback last night, scat tering ten hits and coolly pitching himself out of several tight jams. It was his 18th win against five defeats. His .750 win percentage is tops for PCL starating chuckers.
 The Seals cracked Portland's win string at eight straight by rallying for two runs in the sev- enth on Ray Orteig's homer and singles by Dino Restelli and Will Leonard sandwiched around hit batsman
 San Franciscos first place mar gin remained IF games over run ner-up Oakland The Oaks, using five home runs, clubbed San Diego for a 13-1 triumph.
 Hollywood's Gus zernial became the first Coast Leaguer to pass the 2C0-hit mark, but the Stars lost to Sacramento, 7-3. Zernial got two of five hits off Ken Holcombe, to bring his total to POP
 Seattle made it two in a row over Los Angeles, 3-1, as Charley Schanz came up with another five-hitter. Tony York paced the 10-hit assault on Red Lynn with three bingles. Lynn, reaching for his 18th win, got slapped with an eighth defeat.

B. Teller Hits Stride;
 indians Look Sironu
 Ir American League
By JOE REfCHLER

With Bob Teller serving warning that he is once again the master noundsman of old, the Cleveland Indians loomed today as the team to beat for the American League pennant.
 True, the Tribe is in third place, a game and a half behind the front-running Boston Red Sox, and a half game back of the runner-up New York Yankees. However, with Teller apparently returned to form, and Fob Lemon to back him on the firing line, the outlook for the In- dians appears very bright.
 Teller turned in his second straight sterling performance last night, permitting the Philadelphia Athletics only six hits, and striking out his season high of nine, as the Indians won, 8-l.
 Bill McCahan started for the As last night but his wildness proved his undoing. He walked three men in a row in the first inning, then was tagged for base clearing triple by Ken Keltner
 The Red Sox maintained their hold on first place by routing the Detroit Tigers, 10-1 in their final game against the Bengals at Fen way Park Boston won nine of II against Detroit.
 Yogi Oerra's 18th home run coming with two out in the last of the 18th, gave the Yankees an up- hill 5-4 victory over the St. Louis Browns. Tommy Henrich's two-out double in the ninth chased in Cliff Mapes with the tying run.
 The Washington Senators staved off ninth inning rally to nip the Chicago White Sox, 5-4, and move past the Browns into sixth place.
 The Brooklyn Dodgers opened up half game lead over the Boston Braves in the torrid National League race when they turned thc italics on Johnny Schmitz and defeated the Cubs in Chicago, 6-0 At the same time, the Braves, who started the day two percentage points behind Brooklyn, were held to a split in their double -header with the Reds in Cincinnati. After Jchnny Wander Nicer bested War ren Spahn, 3-l, in hurling duel, the Braves bounced back to slaughter the Reds. Ill.
 The St. Louis Cardinals. swept the Pittsburgh Pirates into third place. defeating the Philadelphia Phils, A. 2, in night game in St. Louis
 Southpaw Monte Kennedy dump ed the Pirates into fourth place by pitching the New York Giants to a 31 triumph in Pittsburgh.

BALL TEAM NAMED ] FOR SITkA GAMES
 OVER LABOR DAY

On the basis of attendance and reriormance at workouts during the past two weeks, Bob Coughlin and ether team managers have selected the rcster of men to make the Juneau All-Star baseball trip to Sitka fer a three-game series there over Labor Day.
 Although positions or Ciuo men1- bers are not definitely known, Manager Coughlin is well fortified in the backstop position with the combined talents of Red Holloway, regular catcher for the Moose, and Specht. who played the Gastineau season with the Elks. In addition to being outstanding behind the batter, both men are also depen- dable hitters, Holloway being the leagues third heaviest clubber.
 Taking no chances of running short on the mound, Rolison, Phelps, Cantillon, Palmer and Dud Smithberg Will make the trip as hurlers and utility men. Joe Snow, veteran first sacker for the Elks, is slated for plenty of action at that point. Lou Selmer, regular shortstep Tor the Moose, will prob- ably be skirting the infield at Sitka, and Ed Nielsen of the Le- gion is groomed to stop all men attempting to steal third.
 In the outfield, the would-be home-run kings of the Sitka club should find it lot of trouble to put 'em over the heads of Vern Metcalfe, Jerry Magorty, Bill Cope and Fry Hagerup
 Coughlin sad the team plans to leave here Saturday aboard the Monterey to play games in Sitka Sunday and Monday, Sept. and 6.

Serkin Gives Unusual Recital
OF Tried and Familiar Works

pushes it into the piano and the
weight applied produces a thunder
GUS sound. When yielding to his
temperament, his zeal leads him
beyond the dictates of beauty and,
if not present to the same degree
as formerly, there were periods
when this tendency took over the
reinS.
On the other hand, his virtuosity
knows no hinderance. His tech
nique is faultless in its swift, bril-
liant security. Its power to delight
with its delicate velocity was evil
denced in the scintillating passages
Of the Mendelssohn "Rondo." He
is a master analyst, never exag-
gerating, never pretentious, and al
ways releasing his musical concept
to the guidance of his feeling. This
was most potently demonstrated in
the "Appassionata" where every

By Alice Eversmon

Rudolf Serkin defied all present
day tendencies and played pro-
gram of piano works last night in
Constitution Hall that the public
liked to hear. He had no moderns OF
any nationality represented in his
selections and he sought out nothing
unfamiliar from the old masters just
to give a little variety. He confined
himself to compositions students
have worked over and others Of more
advanced character, played by every
renowned pianist. There was Moth
ing new in his recital except-and
this is the point-the way he played
the old, the tried and the familiar.
This may not seem so much of q
feat but it was. 1t represented the
unified functioning OF superior mu-
steamship, keen intellect and glow
ing temperament The fresh ap-
proach, the clairvoyant penetration
that saw deeper into the music and
the obedient technique that so splen-
didly relayed it to the listeners were
factors that made Mr.. Serkin's re-
cital different and stimulating to
mind and heart. 1t had to be above
the ordinary to gain the wild ap-
plause it did from an audience that
knew well every note he played.
The program demonstrated also IN
what way Mr.. Serkin regards each
number. There was an exquisitely
clear exposition of Mozart's "Rondo
In D major" not glamorized with
undue striving for more than the
music states but perfect in its ad-
herence to simplicity and polished
setting forth of its agreeable theme.
1t followed Bach's italian Con-
certo," another mastery perform
ance in matters of color and dy-
namics. If the pianist's rather heavy
touch could not recreate an approxi-
mate harpsichord quality completely,
the spirit of the music of this period
was emphasized by the strict tempt
and by transparency Of tone. His
remarkable legato made the melody
of the Andante sing over the heavy
bass with soulful effect.
The superlative musicianship that
did so much with these less taxing
works reached its apex in the
Beethoven Sonata Appassionata." !"
It's emotional variety was paced
with exceeding care. f1uctuating
nuances given the time for their
meaning to sink in and the archi-
tectonic line built UP with mount
ing dramatic power. 1t was can
descent with feeling but also very
definite in aim, for it became a
passionate story lacking only a text.
Rarely has the poised knowledge
and the abandonment in express
sion been so expertly balanced In
this sonata and the applause that
burst forth instantaneously was the
homage paid to performance
gripping and scholarly at the same
time.
Mr.. Serkin is not without his
limitations and they appeared fire.
quently last night. His tone can
be lovely and suave as in the F
sharp major "Romanze" of Schu-
mann and Mendelssohn's "Rondo
Capriccioso" but it can be also hard
and brittle as used in the first
movement of the Beethoven. 1t
seldom has a sheen that mirrors
color even in its most poetic ex-

phrase was Of absorbing interest
of itself until taking its place in the
general pattern. The strictness Of
his rhythm, the wealth and impor-
tance of small shadings and his
ability to make a pause vibrant
with meaning are elements that
constantly embellished his playing
last night. It's candor and sincerity
was that of a musician, long con-
fident of his mechanical prowress,
who seeks to divulge the very es-
sence Of composition.
The program concluded with
Chopins "Ballade in A fiat major"
and "Tarantelle, op. 49," to which
he added the Butterfly" Etude as
encore, and Debussy's Etudes, pour
les Degrees chrornatiques," pour les
Arpeges composes" and pour les
Accords." The artist was given an
ovation at the close.
