HOLLYWOOD UP—The Hollywood Stars, victorious over the league-leading San Diego Padres in five of eight games at Gilmore Field, adjusted their sights today for a coming series with the cellar-sharing San Francisco Seals. The Stars polished off the visiting Pads 4-1 and 2-1 Sunday to end their current Southland appearance. They take on the Seals in San Francisco tomorrow. The Los Angeles Angels return home to start a series tomorrow with Oakland. The Stars' double victory Sunday firmed their grasp on the coast league's third-place spot. Hollywood now stands six and a half games out of first and Portland, which divided a pair with Oakland, is eight games off the pace. Brannigans spiced the Gilmore Field fare, bringing banishments, threat of banishments and a shower of debris from the stands. The Stars won the first game behind the eight-hit pitching of Bob Garber. The Padres avoided a shutout when they bunched three hits in the sixth inning to produce their lone run. Gene Freese homered for Hollywood. The Stars got only four hits to San Diego's 11 in the nightcap but still came away with the victory. Bobby Prescott scored from second in the sixth inning on a close play at the plate. Curt Roberts later laid down a squeeze play that scored Dick Smith. The Padres scored in the seventh on Dick Sisler's pinch single and bingles by Buddy Peterson and Milt Smith. The game was sprinkled with hassles, one of which delayed the contest 10 minutes. The holdup came when Padre Manager Bob Elliott vigorously protested Prescott's scoring play and umpire Al Mutart cleared the San Diego bench. Play resumed, but only briefly. Roberts objected to a close pitch. Kiner, Rosen Find Neat Hotel Thief CHICAGO UP—A fastidious thief broke into the hotel room of Al-Rosen and Ralph Kiner, Cleveland roomies, while they were busy playing the White Sox Sunday in a doubeheader. In addition to taking some valuables, the thief also shaved and showered, Kiner said. YACHTING Morning Star Neck and Neck With Ramona ABOARD THE USS GRES-HAM UP—The schooner Ramona of San Francisco and the record holding ketch Morning Star of Los Angeles sped practically neck and neck today less than 709 miles from Honolulu in an attempt to win the transpacific yacht race. Both last night were reported some 25 miles ahead of the position the 96-foot Morning Star occupied at the same hour in the race when she set a record. The Padres scored in the seventh on Dick Sisler's pinch single and bingles by Buddy Peterson and Milt Smith. The game was sprinkled with hassles, one of which delayed the contest 10 minutes. The holdup came when Padre Manager Bob Elliott vigorously protested Prescott's scoring play and umpire Al Mutart cleared the San Diego bench. Play resumed, but only briefly. Roberts objected to a close pitch and headed for Eddie Erault on the mound. Catcher Ed Bailey grabbed Roberts and there followed a wrestling match which brought other players to the field. The flareup ended quickly and Roberts returned to the plate to squeeze in Smith. Buena Park Lynx Lose to Phoenix PHOENIX, Ariz.—The Buena Park Lynx, forced to take the trip here with a short roster, were defeated twice by the Phoenix Ramblers in a Pacific Coast Women's Softball League game yesterday and Saturday. Phoenix led all the way in the first game as Eloise Bielefeld and Pat Snelling shared the mound chores, with the Lynx losing. 5-2. Phoenix got nine hits against the Lynx's five. The final game of the series was won by the Ramblers, 5-4, with Snelling being charged with the loss for the Lynx. Kathlene Bielefeld moved from first base to the catcher's position when Mary Whitney was absent. The Lynx play another league game Thursday night at Orange. Jr. Bloomer Girls Start With Win The newly formed Jr. Bloomers Girls Softball team of Anaheim started their season successfully today by defeating Brea-Olinda 29 to 17. The age of these girls are 9 through 14. The big inning for the Anaheim girls was the third as 15 girlls came to bat. Ten runs were scored on six hits and four walks.

The record holding ketch Morning Star of Los Angeles sped practically neck and neck today less than 709 miles from Honolulu in an attempt to win the transpacific yacht race. Both last night were reported some 25 miles ahead of the position the 96-foot Morning Star occupied at the same hour in the race morning ago when she set a record of 10 days, 10 hours and 14 minutes for the 2225-mile course from Los Angeles Harbor to Diamond Head. Winds of nearly 18 knots per hour boosted the yachts along. Early yesterday the Morning Star was about 14 miles behind the 100-cm diamona, but appeared to have caught up to her by the 8 p.m. PDT report. The RAMONA, OWNED BY William Pomeroy, was on a northerly course compared to the Morning Star which was following a more direct route. Frank E. Hooykaas' Constellation, eighth handicapped and once in second place, was running third, some 100 miles behind the leaders. Last night's report placed the Solveig IV of the Royal Sydney Yacht Club some 1200 miles out, leading the class D boats. The Novia del Mar of San Diego's Cabrillo Yacht Club lost two spinakers but was still underway following repairs. Race officials estimated the Ramona and Morning Star would sight Diamond Head some time Wednesday if the favorable winds continued. The flotilla of 53 yachts now cut to 50, left Los Angeles Harbor at noon July 4. Other boat by boat standings reported yesterday were: Novia del Mar, fourth, Queen Mab of Catalina Island, fifth, Baruna, San Francisco, sixth, Escapade, Los Angeles, seventh, Diamnd Head, Seattle, eighth, Nam Sang, Cabrillo, ninth and Celebes, San Francisco, tenth. The leaders in individual handicap classes were: Class A: Constellation, Morning Star, Novia del Mar; class B: Nam Sang, Jada, Nordlys of Corinthian YVACHT Club; class C: Nalu II of Newport Harbor, Kialoa of Corinthian YC, Eleuthera, Seattle; class D: Solveig IV, Staghound, Newport Harbor (handicap winner two years ago), and DEBIT, San Francisco. All-Star Game Wynn, Rober By FRED PARKER MILWAUKEE, Wis. (UP)—Burly Early Wynn and rugged Robin Roberts were likely to be named starting pitchers today for the 22nd major league All-Star game. American League Manager Al Lopez said if he didn't start Wynn of his own Cleveland Indians, it would be Billy Pierce of the Chicago White Sox. National League boss Leo Durocher had even more fearful thoughts in mind with Brooklyn's nigh unbeatable Don Newcombe as his alternate choice. The official announcement of starting pitchers was due at 1 p.m. EDT including a choice between Del Crandall of Milwaukee and Smokey Burgess of Cincinnati as catcher in place of lame Roy Campanella of Brooklyn. The spinning gears of Durocher's brain apparently meshed with the thought Newcombe's dangerous but would be a handy instrument to have available later in the game Tuesday at Milwaukee County Stadium. He said, therefore, Roberts was his likely choice despite the fact Newcombe has a 14-1 pitching rec- Baseball in Brief T PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE W L Pet San Diego ... 60 41 .595 HOLLYWOOD ... 57 42 .576 Portland ... 52 46 .531 Portland ... 48 45 .516 LOS ANGELES ... 46 54 .460 Oakland ... 45 54 .455 San Francisco ... 43 56 .434 Sacramento ... 43 55 .424 Yesterday Results HOLLYWOOD, 4-2; San Diego, 1-1 LOS ANGELES, 2-0; Seattle, 1-6.

ATHLETES MEET WITH EISENHOWER WASHINGTON (UP) — Thirty-two leading sports personalities, including baseball Commissioner Ford Frick and former heavyweight champion Gene Tunney, were scheduled to meet with President Eisenhower today on plans to take part in sports. The meeting at a luncheon was called, the White House said, because Eisenhower is concerned at "the present trend of youngsters spectators rather than participate actively in competitive sports." Murray Snyder, assistant White Press secretary, said the President hopes the 32 sports leaders can stimulate interest in competitive sports and thus "improve standards of young Americans and reduce juvenile delinquency." "The President has always since had a deep personal interest in competitive sports," Snyder said. "He was a good ballplayer and he always made an effort to stimulate physical development and competition while in the service. He called the meeting because of his strong interest in this." Dr. F. E.

Lemon KE 5-2239 ANAHEIM Weekend Setback Sport Parade By OSCAR FRALEY NEW YORK (UP) — There are a lot of guys in sports who are quick to scream "misquate" when they speak out of turn and stir up a verbal hornets' nest, but Ed Furgol is not one of them. Furgol is the namecock from St. Louis who set up ultra-modern long-shot precedent in the 1954 U.S. Open, which Jack Fleck followed in 1955. His feat was evidence if needed, that the handicapped Furgol is a real scraper. So when Ed says that his remarks were "misinterpreted," and he was the victim of "mistaken identity," during the recent British Open fracas, you have to go along with him. Arriving home by plane from Scotland Sunday, Ed was naturally disturbed. It was worthy of him that he did not blow his stack, but simply admitted to saying the things he did say and quietly tried to state his case. Hurt The Most Personally, the one which hurt him most was that he had been identified having angrily brushed away a youngster seeking an autograph. One American player did do that; Ed admitted, as well as put an angry knock on halowed St. Andrews where the British event was played. "Apparently because of unfamiliarity with American players, this inadvertently was attributed to me," Furgol explained before taking another plane for St. Louis, one which, incidentally, sprung a gas leak over Pittsburgh and drew a tense welcoming committee of fire engines. "It was a case of mistaken identity." Furgol claimed. "I've never pushed away anyone seeking an autograph because I feel it is an honor. I stood for a half-hour at a time signing them, and then would JUNIOR LEGION BASKETBALL Anaheim E By DUKE FISCHLE The Anaheim Junior Legion baseball team finished the league play in great fashion as on Saturday Bob Scholz pitched a no hit, no run game for Anaheim as they won to 0 and on Sunday Bob Butler pitched a five-hit game to 10 to 0 for a double shutout over Garden Grove.

Stan Underwood, assisted by managers John Adams, Sam Azarra and Jack Bonser, will be in charge of the All-Stars training. Harold Bailey, player's agent, will be in charge of the All-Stars' training. A two-week layoff has been ordered by coaches so the team can practice together and get nito shape.

Charles Aquinaga of the Indians spoiled Adams no-hitter with a hard drive over second baseman Harrett's head which gave Aquinaga a double. Adam's game was one of the finest pitched for the Stanton crew this season. Bill, a freckle-faced, toe-headed youngster just reared back and fired 'em past the opposition, but saw his near-perfect performance spoiled by Aquinaga's double. Another no-hitter was spoiled as the Tigers defeated the Cards, 17-2. Jim Hadley singled in the fifth to become the spoiler. This game was called at the end of the sixth inning because of time limits. Leading hitters of the contest were Tigers' Al Roquero with four safties and Bobby Dawson with two for two.
