Take a Look at Coast League By The Associated Press The home run is mighty and prevails in the Pacific Coast league. Home runs—30 of 'em in 28 games—are edging Stan Hack's Los Angeles club toward first place in the standing, while Portland pace-setter from the start, is showing signs of faltering and has now dropped five straight. Two booming homers by Max West, who used to fashion them for San Diego, drove in five Los Angeles runs last night as the Angels turned back the Padres, 6 to 3. Home runs by Jack Graham, also a former San Diegan, and catcher Ray Orteig gave San Francisco the series over Portland, 7 to 1. Portland's run was a homer too, delivered in the fifth by Marv Diercks. Eddie Lake and Bob Thurman were on base when Graham hit the circuit, and Thurman was on again when Orteig delivered. Frank Kelleher hit a homer for Hollywood at Seattle but the Rainiers took a 4 to 3 decision on the head first sliding of outfielder Jim Rivera. He stole home on ponderous Pinky Woods after he had singled, gone to second on a wild throw of his hit and taken third on an infield out. Hollywood had a chance to win the ball game in the six with the bases jammed. Lou Stringer singled in two runs but Rivera fired the ball in to start a double play that caught Ed Sauer going from second to third and Stringer trying to make second. Kelleher then hit his homer-with the bases empty. Sacramento and Oakland were balked by rain. Angels Second Los Angeles' victory landed Hack's club in the second spot, only a game and one-half behind Portland, and pushed Sox into third place. Only one-half games separates place San Francisco from land today. Los Angeles observers feel, is playing head for Hack, but the much better than the place Angels of 1950. Chuck Connors, the baseman acquired from cage Cubs, has given the mighty punch. He has beaten 30 runs and socked eight West has hit nine out of San Diego's hopes for the flag this year seem to what Cleveland does with talent the Padres sent to team is hopeful of getting fielder Harry (Suitcase son; pitchers Jess Floyd George Zuverink, and catches Murray from the Indiana son knocked in 156 runs Diego last year and Zuveria a 20-game winner. If it comes back, watch out Padres.

TROJAN TENNIS VICTORY LOS ANGELES UP—That a default in a doubles match University of San Francisco not blanked by Southern California's tennis team. The Trojans won eight matches against Carl Vickory Jullus Debro of USF. Pitcher Looked Bad in Spring Camp But Makes Rickey Look Good Now By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer Every time Willie Werle saunters to the mound for Pittsburgh he increases Branch Rickey's reputation as a master judge of players. It was back in 1949 that Rickey, then head of the Brooklyn Dodgers, offered $200,000 for the left-hand relief specialist. The Pirates disdained the offer, And is Rickey thankful. Branch, of course, is now general manager of the Bucs. Funny thing. Werle wasn't worth a plugged nickel in spring training. In some 30 innings he was manhandled for something like 40 hits and 20 runs. But once they started playing for keeps, he quickly began to look like a million bucks. He's been in four of the Pirates six contests and Pittsburgh has won them all. He saved three and received credit for the other. The two games in which Willie did not see action, the Pirates lost. An Oakland Boy Werle came to the rescue of starter Vernon Law yesterday, holding the Cubs scoreless for two innings to preserve Pittsburgh's 6-4 victory in Chicago. That made it 10 scoreless innings this season for the 29-year-old native of Oakland, Calif. Werle started right off on opening day, holding Cincinnati run-less in 2½ innings to safeguard a 4-3 victory for Cliff Chambers. ing-Ball Hitting? Coast Leaguers Portland, and pushed San Diego into third place. Only five and one-half games separate last-place San Francisco from Portland today. Los Angeles, some observers feel, is playing over its head for Hack, but the club looks much better than the seventh-place Angels of 1950. Chuck Connors, the big first baseman acquired from the Chicago Cubs, has given the Angels a mighty punch. He has batted in 30 runs and socked eight homers. West has hit nine out of the lot. San Diego's hopes for winning the flag this year seem to rest on what Cleveland does with the talent the Padres sent up. The team is hopeful of getting outfielder Harry (Suitcase) Simpson; pitchers Jess Flores and George Zuverink, and catcher Ray Murray, from the Indians. Simpson knocked in 156 runs for San Diego last year and Zuverink was a 20-game winner. If this pair comes back, watch out for the Padres. Hollywood made the 23-player limit yesterday by placing ex-Pittsburgh pitcher Bob Chesnes and catcher Mike Sandlock on the disabled list and first sacker Dale Coogan on the temporarily inactive list. Chesnes has a sore arm and Sandlock a sprained ankle. Coogan, attending USC, plays in only the Stars' home games. Citation May Be on Way Out SAN MATEO — Citation will not start in the $60,000 added Bay Meadows handicap Saturday. Trainer H. A. (Jimmy) Jones showed displeasure at the 128 pound weight assignment given the Calumet Farm thoroughbred for the mile and one-eighth race. Jones said: "I don't know whether he will ever be able to give weight to good horses in fit shape and beat them, but it is out of the question to start him in his present shape." Werle came to the rescue of starter Vernon Law yesterday, holding the Cubs scoreless for two innings to preserve Pittsburgh's 8-4 victory in Chicago. That made it 10 scoreless innings this season for the 29-year-old native of Oakland, Calif. Werle started right off on opening day, holding Cincinnati run-less in 2½ innings to safeguard a 4-3 victory for Cliff Chambers. He came right back the next day with three scoreless rounds against St. Louis to save a 5-4 game for Murray Dickson. In his next outing, he stopped a Cincinnati uprising in the seventh inning and was rewarded with the victory when the Pirates rallied for two runs in the ninth to snap a 5-3 deadlock. Werle yesterday shared honors with outfielder Wally Westlake, who accounted for four Pittsburgh runs with a three-run homer and a clutch single. The homer was Westlake's third. Cub rookie Omar (Turk) Lown was the loser. The victory tied Pittsburgh with Chicago for second place, a half game behind the National League leading Dodgers, who were beaten, 7-4, by the Boston Braves in Brooklyn. The Cardinals edged into the first division with a 3-1 win over Cincinnati in St. Louis. The Phillies handed the New York Giants their sixth straight loss with a 6-4 victory under the Philadelphia lights. Feller Wins Bob Feller kept the Indians in first place in the American league, stopping the surprising Chicago White Sox, 5-2, in Cleveland. Runner-up Washington remained a half game behind upsetting the Red Sox, 7-5, in Boston's Fenway Park.
