Anaheim chucker, Dick Ramella, worked the first four innings — giving up no runs and only two non-harmful singles to right field. But in the fifth game trouble for hard working Ramella after two were out. Left fielder George Labono got on first with a single hit past shortstop Kenny Coen. Center fielder Swingle, the leagues top track and field shot putter, reached first on Carl Hatfield's error then stole second; Burdick then picked up two RBI's for himself. In the sixth frame third baseman, Dick Lusk hit a single into left field to start the Sailors final rally. Armend Nettles ground out to Hatfield to Hamella moving Lusk over to second. Pitcher Bill Mashburn then preserved his own game by bashing a hard hit single past Duanne Masterson's head to score Lusk from second. The Blue and Gold finally scored in their last ups when Hatfield lashed out a triple to left field, Enoch Peterson was called out but George Moody, starting his first varsity game hit a single over second base scoring Hatfield. Both teams collected seven hits and again for the third straight game it was the Colonies error. Although Fullerton High School captured the Sunset swim title last week and a cinch to reap more of the CIF quarterfinals the afternoon at Whittler won't pick up more qualifiers to move into finals Tuesday at Long Beach Indian's chose not to do finals. As a result of this head swimming coach Hippe banned all members participating in the qualifying in the qualifying this Friday. It was a clear or nothing at all. As a result of this several athletes from will have the job of catching Sunset League pregame the Whittler meet. Al Clooney qualified in the CCI yard freestyle will now the 100 freestyle as well move as a result of place and Fullerton's entry. Candless dropping out. Dick Wagoner carries and Gold colors to Whitlock. A 200 yard free placed fourth in the lead and moves up taking up four Charlie Chamberlains placed second league meet.

They placed in the league finals, but s Yachts Readying In Newport Race NEW PORT BEACH (P) — Skippers and crew of 130 of more yachts put in long hours today, readying the craft for the fourth annual Newport Beach-to-Ensenada, Mexico, race which gets underway at noon tomorrow. General Chairman Cliff Chapman said 136 yachts were formally entered in the 140-mile salt water sail but several boats, bounced about in last weekend's storm, may not be able to get into the race. The field last year was 134, a record for the event. A total of 122 sailed the route in 1949 and the inaugural in 1948 attracted 118. The windup of the Corinthian classic is timed to mesh with Mexico's Cine de Mayo celebration in the seaside resort of Ensenada, and some 2000 Americans, including the yachismen, will participate in the colorful holiday. The first contestants are expected to hit Ensenada bay Friday morning, and all will be anchored there by Saturday. Lone scratch vessel in the race is the favorite and 1950 winner, the U.S. Navy's 90-foot Yawl, Saluda. Yachts Finally Scored in Their Last Ups When Hattfield lashed out a triple to left field, Enoch Peterson was called out but George Moody, starting his first varsity game hit a single over second base scoring Hattfield. Both teams collected seven hits and again for the third straight game it was the Colonia errors that proved the margin of victory. Head coach, John Willen, shifted his line up trying to shake his players out of their "booting and erroring" spree. Gayle Herbel, ex third sacker, was moved over to second while ex-IV player George Bishop, took over third base. Ramella pitched excellent ball for the first three innings giving up only two harmless singles in the third. He walked two straight in the fourth and fell before Bardick's blow in the fifth. He finished the game giving up a total of three free passes to first, two strike outs, seven hits and three runs—all earned. In the other league games Best Haysom couldn't cut himself, a third no-hitter in a row so he gave up five hits, but won anyway over Huntington Beach 71. Fullerton kept pace as Elvin Boye gave up two runs and six hits to edge Orange 4-2.

As a result of this decision, head swimming coach Tom Hadlope banned all members from participating in the quarterfinals this Friday. It was a case of OS or nothing at all. As a result of this decision several athletes from Anaheim will have the job of carrying on the Sunset League prestige into the Whittler meet. Al Clayes who only qualified in the Class A 50 yard freestyle will now swim in the 100 freestyle as well.

DETROIT (AP) — Has former heavyweight champion Joe Louis learned to throw his knockout punch again? You'll get an answer tonight. Louis, who is trying radical measures to regain his kayo power, tackles Cuba's Omelio Agramonte at Olympia stadium. Louis ranks as a solid 10-1 favorite to win the fifth fight in his comeback drive. The scheduled 10-round bout will be broadcast nationally (7 pm. PDT). Joe, whose explosive right made him champion from 1937 to 1949, failed to knockout any of his first four comeback foes. Joe won all bouts, two on decisions and two when the referees stopped the slaughters. Agramonte, a lanky 187-pounder with a fair right hand punch, lasted all 10 rounds against Louis in one of those fights.

Tight Pacific Coast Pennant Chase Sees Another Reshuffled Standing The tight Pacific Coast League race has produced another reshuffling in the standings. Bill Sweeney Portland Beavers are still in front, and by four fat games, but Los Angeles gave San Francisco a 10 to 4 thumping last night and moved back into second place from the fifth spot. Hollywood's 8 to 5 decision over Oakland dropped the Acorns into third place. San Diego cooled off the hustling Solons of Sacramento, 5 to 2. Portland nominated Seattle, 13 to 2. Seattle unveiled Art Del Duca to the home folks. He's the righthand pitcher, the Rainiers recently got from San Francisco. He fooled Portland for one inning but the Beavers scored six runs in the second and seven in the fourth, although by this time Def Duca should have had his shower and been en route to a movie. Dewey Soriano, his relief, hid to be relieved by rookie Bud Guldborg. Ed Barr hit a three-run homer. Jim Marshall, Oakland's rookie first baseman, smashed his seventh homer against Hollywood, but Frank Kelleher of the Stars pinch hit with his sixth. There were two aboard and the circuit-blow decided the ball game. Oakland outlived the Stars, 10 to 7, but Hollywood got triples, by George Johnees and Dale Coogan and doubles by George Genovese, Lou Stringer and Clint Conatser. Pinky Woods, batted out by the sixth, received credit for the victory. Lefty Frank Baczowski, Los Angeles' prize rookie hurler, held San Francisco to three hits for the first seven innings, while his Coatown Looks Good Prepping SAN MATEO UP — Coaltown, prepping for Saturday's $25,000 added children's hospital handicap, flashed five furlongs in 58 3/5 yesterday—one fifth second faster than the Bay Meadows track record.

Special Touch rated as Coal-town's big opposition Saturday, sprinted three furlongs in .35. Is This to be Bob Feller’s Big Year As He Aims for Shot at Series Win?

The Cleveland righthander has realized all his ambitions—except one. Despite two cracks at it, a World Series triumph thus far has eluded him. This is the year, avers the erstwhile fireballer. Reaching the twilight of his career, the 32-year-old Feller knows he does not have too much time left. After all, Bobby has been pouring them in since 1936. His right arm still has the cooling but undoubtedly has lost some of the smoke that used to blind enemy batters. Pitching with head as well as his arm, Feller is showing flashes of his former greatness this season. He has made three starts, has gone the total pitch time and has won all three. Feller pitched his best game of the campaign last night, whipping the power-packed Boston Red Sox, 7-1, with a six-hitter.

Fish and Game Overhaul Bill Passes Senate SACRAMENTO—A bill overhauling California's Fish and Game agency has passed the State Senate and now is before the Assembly. The author, Senator Charles Brown (D-Shoshone) said yesterday the proposal would meet complaints of fishermen and hunters and give them a better setup. His bill would make fish and game a full-fledged state departement administered by a $12,000-a-year director appointed by the governor. Presently, both administrative and policy-making powers belong to a five-member commission appointed by the governor. Even if Brown's bill passes the Assembly, final shape of the state's fish and game agency hinges on a case now before the state supreme court. The case is to determine whether the legislature has power to alter fish and game administration or whether changes must be by Constitutional amendment approved by the people.
