Stars Blank Beavers 1-0 By The Associated Press Hollywood, which has lost more than its share of close ones in the Pacific Coast League this year, won its second close one in a row, 1-0 from Portland last night. Jack Salveson made it two shutouts in succession, following Pinky Woods' 2-0 win Tuesday. Hollywood, however, failed to gain ground as front-running Oakland whacked Seattle, 10-5, to maintain its 9½ game margin over the Stars. Elsewhere, San Diego edged Los Angeles, 3-2, in 10 innings, and Sacramento made it two straight over San Francisco, 7-1. The Stars-Beavers game might just as well have been called after shortstop Buddy Hicks rapped Red Lynn's first pitch over the right field fence. Salveson, chalking up his 14th win against three defeats, spaced five single, three by Joe Brovia, and walked none. It was revenge for Salveson whose recent 10-game win streak was snapped by Lynn's three-hitter. Harry Gumbert, the old major leaguer, turned in a five-hitter against San Francisco. Dino Restelli's first inning home was the only Seal run. Sacramento manager Joe Marty also homered. Max West's fly scored Orestes Minoso in the 10th to give San Diego the nod over Los Angeles. Oakland spotted Seattle a lead on homers by Bill Salkeld, Frank Colman and Jack Warren, then roared back with a 12-hit barrage that included circuit drives by Ray Noble and Bob Hofman. Anaheim Juniors Trounce Santa Ana Roy Merk's Anaheim juniors racked up another league baseball victory yesterday as they doubled a Santa Ana squad 12-6. John Steinborn led the Anaheim attack with three hits for three times at bat. Jim Vincent and Pat Roberts each got a pair. Big inning for the Anaheimers was the third which saw them pile up five runs on three walks, two errors, a triple by Duane Masterson and singles by Steinborn, Ed Harker, Jerry Boren and Lonnie Jenkins.

Doby Goes Wild at Bail After Brooklyn Beaning By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer American League pitchers are feeling the after of Larry Doby's near-tragic skulling of some two weeves. Since Brooklyn's Joe Hatten knocked Doby unconscious with a pitched ball in a July 24 exhibition game at Field, no pither has been safe from Larry's bludgeoning. In the 11 games the Cleveland Negro outfielder played since the accident, he has pounded out nine home runs, driven in 20 runs and batted .462. His nine homers matched his entire output for his first 86 games. Doby tried his utmost to give Cleveland a sweep of its double-header with St. Louis last night. He slammed two home runs and three doubles to drive in five runs. The best the tribe could do, however, was to split the two games. Cleveland won the opener, 4-3, with Doby's two homers accounting for all the runs. The Browns blew a four-run lead but bounced back to win the second game, 10-8, on Ken Wood's eighth inning homer with one on. Doby belted three doubles, drove in a run and scored twice. The split caused the third place Indians to lose a half game to both the pace-setting Detroit Tigers and runnerup Yankees. The Tigers downed the Chicago White Sox, 5-3, to maintain their three-game advantage over the Yankees, who shaded the Boston Red Sox, 2-1 behind Vic Raschi's three-hit pitching. The Philadelphia Phillies continued their dominance in the National League, defeating the Brooklyn Dodgers for the second straight day, 5-4. The victory protected Robinson W Fusari Aims At LaMotta By JACK HANDLER JERSEY CITY, (P)—Motta is the next target for Ray Robinson, now that she welter title defense is safe of the way. But it won't to arrange. Robinson never was sacked in the Roosevelt stadium night against cycling Chaseri. The only time he rised was on the scales. The lean Harlem slam to go back three times before baths and rub downs. He want to do that again. He to mingle with the middlemen. Chances are Robinson get the bout. He will have back to risking his Penn world middleweight title at ton, Pa. Aug. 23 again Basora and over-the-weight bouts.

Orange's winning blast came in the eighth as four hits and a costly error produced the five-run margin. A scorcher through Lynx second baser Patty Averett produced two of the counters. The remaining three were registered via the barrage of singles and a walk. The Lynx opened the scoring in the fourth inning. Robbie Mulkey errored aboard, went to second on Joan Alsup's grounder to short and scored on a single by Beverly Meissen. Pat Collins, Orange center fielder, powered one of the longest homers seen in these parts to tie up the ball game in the fifth. Saturday and Sunday the Lynx entertain Fresno in a pair of nine-innings frays at Buena Park. Second place in the Western States competition will be at stake.

They were slated to face the Pirates under the lights in Pittsburgh. The scheduled game between Cincinnati and Chicago also was postponed by rain. In the only other American League game, the Philadelphia Athletics nosed out Washington's Senators, 7-6, on an 11th inning single by Joe Tipton. Vic Wertz' 24th home run with George Kell on base in the eighth proved to be the decisive blow in Detroit's victory over Chicago. Fred Hutchinson went all the way for his 13th triumph.

Cleveland Negro outfielder has Robinson Whips Fusari Aims At LaMotta By JACK HAND JERSEY CITY, (UP)—Jake LaMotta is the next target for Sugar Ray Robinson, now that his fifth welter title defense is safely out of the way. But it won't be easy to arrange. Robinson never was safer than in the Roosevelt stadium ring last night against cycling Charlie Fuari. The only time he risked his crown was on the scales at noon. The lean Harlem slasher had to go back three times before he made 147 pounds after steam baths and rub downs. He doesn't want to do that again. He wants to mingle with the middleweights. Chances are Robinson will not get the bout. He will have to go back to risking his Pennsylvania world middleweight title at Scranton, Pa. Aug. 23 against Jose Basora and over-the-weight welter outs. South Anaheimers (Continued from Page 1) criticized the selection of the present Jefferson school site in relation to adjacent railroads. "Most schools try to avoid railroad tracks," he said. "Anaheim builds between railroad tracks." Perhaps it shouldn't be, he indicated, "but there it is. It's practically built." Whitnall then stated that he thought the planning commission was doing the best possible job under the circumstances. "We're caught," he said. "We must do the best we can." Designated representatives spoke for two local organizations last night. Maurice Jones, representing Kwikset Locks, told the audience that Kwikset heartily endorsed the zoning plan as laid out by the commisison. He said Kwikset had a "$1,650,000 investment in at the Santa Ana plant and voiced the belief that manufacturing areas foster well-supported schools. Speaking for the Chamber of Commerce, Oscar Solter, chairman of the industrial committee asked for thoughtful consideration of the future in regard to planning proposals. He stated his belief that Anaheim will expand rapidly with the completion of the Freeway, citing the examples of Alhambra and Downey as cities which have grown with more direct connection with Los Angeles area. To those present who voiced apprehension over drop in industrial area property values, Solter said, "worry about values when the town stops growing. That is when values go down." At the close of the meeting, Whitall explained that the Planning Commission would call a special meeting to consider the findings of the hearing last night. The next step, he said would be to submit the proposed rezoning ordinance together with information. Korean War (Continued from Page 1) mary said South Koreans checked the enemy drive eight miles west of Pohang. The fighter base is near this city 63 miles north of the port of Pusan. The enemy also loosed new attacks along the northern front, putting renewed pressure on the important supply city of Taegu, 55 miles northwest of Pusan. They were advancing against resisting South Koreans on a front about 30 miles north of Taegu. The enemy still held a Naktong river bridgehead 29 miles southwest of Taegu against fierce American attacks. Another bridgehead 12 miles northwest of Taegu was reported wiped out. U.S. Eighth Army leaders took hasty steps to protect the fighter plane base. It is eight miles southeast of Pohang on the Sea of Japan 55 miles north of Pusan. Two red forces rolled back crumbling South Korean troops there. AP Correspondent Hal Boyle at Pohang said the reds were protected from American naval guns by lofty mountains in some of Korea's most rugged country. The Pohang-bound communists hammered down from Yongdok, which they retook Thursday, and drove on four miles to the south. The main threat to the fighter base came from another red force rolling toward it from the mountain village of Kigye, eight miles northwest of Pohang. A North Korean patrol of 30 men commanded the Yongchon-Pohang supply road with machineguns. Gorgeous Gussy Eyes Pro Tennis The only time he risked his crown was on the scales at noon.

Chances are Robinson will not get the bout. He will have to go back to risking his Pennsylvania world middleweight title at Scranlon, Pa. Aug. 23 against Jose Gasora and over-the-weight welterouts. "I wasn't exactly tired," said Robinson after the Fusari fight, but I was kind of weak. If I ever get up to 155 again, it would take a big figure with a lot ofaughts behind it to tempt me to reduce to 147 again." There was little action in Robin's latest outing because Fuari ran away for most of the 15 pounds. You had to bend over backwards to give the Irvington, N. J. bond a single round. Referee Paul Kavalier gave him one and called the even. The AP card scored it for Sugar Ray and one even. Eagles Primed For All-Stars CHICAGO (UP)—The National Football League champion Philadelphia Eagles came into Chicago Day ready and fit for their midfield scrap tomorrow night with the college All Stars. Coach Greasy Neale and his squad of 46 huskies will stage a final dress rehearsal tonight for the game against what is touted as one of the best collegian squads ever assembled. Though Philadelphia shellacked the collegians at year 38-0, in the 16th annual Star classic, the Eagles today were quoted as favorites by byy 14½ points. The Eagles were given a setk when Neale announced yesterday that William Patrick McGigh, ace pass defender, is definitely out of tomorrow's battle cause of an aggravated knee injury. Im Gehrdes, captain of the Union State track team, is the Lion word-holder in the high and low dales. Orange County Tax Assessments Set SACRAMENTO, (WNS)—More than $85 million will be added to local government treasuries for the 1950-51 tax year, figures released today by the state board of equalization indicated. The amount represents assessments levied by the board on public utilities property valued at $1,600,000,000. Property assessed locally was $12 billion making a total of $13,600,000,000 upon which taxes will be levied. In Orange county, board assessments increased from $24,262,440 in 1949 to $25,288,030 in 1950. This gain of $1,025,590, or 4.23 per cent, compares with a $2,995,920 fall in values on the locally assessed rolls. Increases on local tax bases averages three per cent above 1949 with the state assessment being six per cent higher. The board pointed out tax assessments have risen 90 per cent since 1940. Gas and electric companies were reported as the largest property owners on the board rolls, with telephone and telegraph companies second and railroads third. Declines in railroad property were attributed to decreased values of Union Pacific oil properties and conversions of transit lines in San Diego, Los Angeles and the bay area to busses. The main threat to the fighter base came from another red force rolling toward it from the mountain village of Kigye, eight miles northwest of Pohang. A North Korean patrol of 30 men commanded the Yongchon-Pohang supply road with machineguns. Gorgeous Gussy Eyes Pro Tennis SANTA MONICA, Calif.
