gang, eight miles west of Red-held
Pohang on the Sea Of Japan coast
Yongchon, an important highway
town 20 miles east of Taegu, chan
ged hands twice in bitter fighting
and an American field officer said
if it was not in Red hands it was
at least under Red control.
Air Force Grounded
The poor weather virtually
grouned allied fighter bombers. B.
29's plastered a magnesium plant
and rail center at Songjin, a port
on the North Korean coast i15
miles south of the .Manchurian
border
Against this background of bat
tlefront news there were these two
developments on the diplomatic and
home fronts:
Russia got slapped down in the
United Nations Security Council in
an attempt to get the U. S. Air
Force denounced for "barbaric'
bombing in Korea.
Top overseas advisers were urging
the United States to press for quick
action on formation of joint Army
under a single supreme commander
for defense of western Europe.
These advisers were worried over
the threat posed by the buildup of
Communist armed strength in east
Germany.
Red Thrusts Stopped
On the Korean front British
troops turned back other Red prob
ing thrusts across the Naktong
River. The British are anchored
between the American Second Div
ision on the south and the First
Cavalry Division to the north near
Waegwan. In this 60-mile span
to the south coast the Reds have
concentrated $4,000 troops.
The drenching rain spoiled a
U. S. First Cavalry Division coun-
terattack on a key hill seven miles
north of Taegu These doughfoots,
punchy after a six-day battle to
stem the strong Red push from the
north, climbed halfway to their
objective then pulled back under
stiff enemy resistance.
Pohang Airfield Held
On the east coast itself South
Koreans held off Red thrusts in
their new positions three miles
south of Pohang. The Americans
still held Pohang airfield, six miles
south of the city.

OAKS WHAM
OUT win BY
23.7 SCORE
(By Associated PreSs)

Is there a pitcher in the House?
Report to Bill Kelly, care of Los
Angeles Bawl Club, please.
What happened to Mr.. Kelly and
six of his alleged FINGERS last night
never happened to the Angels in
their worst moments before. Oak
land %, Los Angeles 7. Not Pac-
ific Coast League record, but the
most runs ever scored against the
Seraphs. Previous high: 81, by San
Francisco, June 20. 1927.
Oakland pushed its league lead
to six full games as San Diego blew
to Sacramento again, 81. Elsewhere,
Hollywood downed San Francisco,
8-5, and Portland ruffled Seattle,
Ga.
Now, if you can't pitch, at least
have the decency to pass Mr.. Kelly
the aspirin while the details are re-
counted
The Oaks did not score in the first
and last innings. But they did in
all the ones between, and seven
times in the third and seven more
in the sixth.
There was a three-run homer by
Earl Rapp, his 18th; bases-loaded
rountripper by Bobby Holman. his
18th; and one by Don Padgett. his
eighth. Padgett also got four singles
to pace the attack.
Oakland made 25 hits in all, in
Guiding four each by Artie Wilson
and Cookie Lavagetto
Sacramento's Bill Evans halted
San Diego with five hits.
Two homers by Frank Kelleher
and one by Jim Baxes gave Holly
wood the nod over San Francisco,
and Pete Mondorff the win over
Harry Feldman.
Eddie (The Fiddle) Basinski's two
run single brought Portland from
behind in the eighth, enabling the
Beavers to overcome the four runs
Seattle racked up in the first two
frames. Red Lynn picked up the tab
at Guy Fletcher's expense.
