Fast Play Brings Forgetfulness of
Wednesday's Scrambled Dish.
Bunched Hits Tell Story
of Game at Chutes
Portland 4, Vernon 1 j
When the second fast and spectacular |
; game after that succotash affair of j
' Wednesday had passed into history
yesterday and the Cans had poured out
of the worn turnstiles at Chutes park, j
the memory of that 13 to 3 score had
4 become somewhat dimmed under the
j radiance of two as good following
, games as the fans could wish to see.;
It was Beaver day yesterday. Bellev
, Ing that it was his turn to repair the :
: reputation of his team for that hodge-,
' podge of two days ago, Walter Mc-i
Oredle passed the word along to hi* ;
; players to put on a full head of steam. j
That they followed his Instructions to
the letter the score abundantly demon-j
strates.
When a pitcher allows six Stingy j
hits, only one of which could be;
stretched into a double, and his matea!
come through with two doubles inj
quick succession nt an opportune mo-:
ment, when the bases are well occu
pied, there is some reason for the de
leat (if the other team. Happy Ho
pan's brigade stuck to their guns;
through nine rattling innings, and put
up a whirlwind finish that almost tied
up the score, but he was bucking a >
! heavy hitting aggregation and the logl-1
cal result ensued. In addition, when |
it is also considered In the reckoning!
that not a mistake was charged Up to
the northerners, it Is easy to under-;
stand why the Suburbanites failed to
take the game.
Willett's Late Comrades
Roy Willett, lately a member of the
Portland pitching staff, appeared
against his former comrades and held
them nicely, the Beaver stickers get
ting only five hits. Four of these, how- j
ever, were crowded into two innings,
«two of them being the doubles that
won the game. '
The Beavers scored first in the third
inning. Hreen and Armbruster were
allowed to lose themselves and pass
to the bench, and then dranev, the
third man up, walked. With two men
out, the real trouble opened up.
• "Spike" Olson ambled to the plate i
with the stroll of the county constable
of an interior Ohio town. His appear
ance was deceptive, however, for he
• rapped Willett's next delivery for a i
hard double, which was pushed out
into left field. This sent Graney to
third, and Spcas, the slim and hard
hitting left fielder, found the former.
Beaver for another double, accounting)
for the scoring of Graney and Olson. |
In the fifth Willott was nervous and i
seemed unstrung, for he was generous!
to the northerners and handed them a
couple of runs to add to their tally |
sheet. McCredle was allowed to walk
and Johnson went to first when he was j
1111 by a pitched ball, Ort went out:
In a long. fly and then Breen scored!
his chieftain with a hot single through j
center Breen was caught at third on
the throw in of the ball. Truck Hasan
made an unexpected slip up a moment
Inter, and this was the direct cause of]
the fourth run, though it realy made ]
little difference, for one run would
have made no difference in the result.
Stocky little Armbruster, the Portland
catcher, hit a hard one to short, which j
Eagan gathered in nicely, but when he j
tried to finish the play he tossed wildly
to first, and the Oregon field captain
sneaked over the pan.
Vernon Saves Shutout
Vernon secured one saving run In the
Sixth, and they made a hot finish In
an effort to tie the score; but all In
vain. The lone tally came thuswise:
Brashe&r connected for a terrific drive ,
through first and gained his objective
point thereby. Truck Eagan laced out
a hard double to center and It would 1
have scored Kitty had he not been
forced by Stovall a moment before.
Eagan was forced at third, Stovall and
Truck falling to work a double steal,
and when Armbrustrr threw low to
second to catch the Flying Dutchman, 1
little'Martlnke, Btovall scooted for thai
plate and beat the ball by a mile or
more. It looked interesting here and |
the crowd called for 11 lie score, but |
Haley struck out. The Vernonlteaj
thereafter had I ant picking. The

A. E. DUNNING
Tomorrow will be one of the biggest ;
days in the fight camps the Angel mitt
fans have ever had set before them.
For those who desire to take this op- j
portunity—which may be their last—of
seeing the four scrappers who will fig- |
ure in Uncle Tom McCarey'i dainty j
list or pugilistic morsels for the benefit j
of the visiting fraternal brethren the
Sunday afternoon matinee will arroru
a highly prized opportunity of seeing
Flynn "and Battling Nelson at work!
provided the follows of the game prefer I
to stay in town, or if they care to wend j
their 'way through the crowds to the |
beaches and take in the sea air they |
will find Billy Papke, the Kewanee
boy, and Ad Wolgast of Milwaukee .
hard at work at their camps at Venice.
Out at the South Side Athletic club
Nelson and the Pueblo fireman have ar
ranged a special Sunday program. In
which there will be a long routine and
the usual numerous rounds of boxing.
Each of the headllners in the Tuesday
and Wednesday cards will go through
their hardest day of training, and when
they doff their training togs tomorrow
it will be for a two days' rest before j
entering the ring. Flynn probably will
work lightly Monday, as he does not
go on with Papke until Wednesday, but
tomorrow's gymnasium efforts In the
out-of-door quarters at the South Side
club will end the serious work of the
Battler. Nelson has shown surprising
speed and vim for the short time he !
has been training, but he whs in good
shape when he arrived and needed only
sufficient efforts to reduce to the weight
and freshen up his wind. He wIM go
through all the usual preparatory ex- j
ercises and will wind up with boxing
bouts with his sparring partners.
Venice Fans Aroused
Venice fandom will see a strenuous
day tomorrow. Both Wolgast and
Papke are digging into their training
as If a life depended on it. There Is
no more conscientious trainer In the
world than Papke, who is tending
strictly to his knitting since the pres
ent bout has been carded for him so I
shortly after a long and bitter ring
struggle with his chief rival. Papk9
is in great trim, and after tomorrow
will ease up, resting Monday and Tues- I
day, and on the latter day he will come
to Los Angeles in the afternoon ready
to go into the ring and reverse the de
cision given to Flynn against him.
With the exception of Wolgast all of
the fighters who are to take part in the
Elks' week contests at McCarey's pa
vilion were busy getting: In shape for
the battles yesterday. Wolgast did
practically nothing, but will resume
active operations today. Papke did his
usual road stunt and in the afternoon J
he used the ring apparatus ot Venice
for an hour and ended up strong and
full of life.
At Doyle's ramp Nelson and Flynn
held sway. The Battler put himself
through a course of sprouts which,
brought him nearer the perfection
which he hopes to attain before he
m«ets Wolgast Tuesday evening at
McCarey's pavilion. Flynn ended up
his work for the day with five rounds
of mitt work with Arthur Collins.
The sale of seats for both fights will
begin this morning, and a great de
mand Is expected for the pasteboards
judging from the amount of tickets
which have been reserved. Those who
will have the tickets on sale nre

Frank Holborow upheld Ills reputa

fornla by winning- the 50-yard dawn in
the swimming contests at the sixth
annual tournament ot" the Southern
ilia Swimming association at
c list evening, breaking the Pa
cific , oast record and winning the
event In 21 seconds.
The time of the race was one second
ahead of the former record and is with
in two and one-half seconds of the;
United States record, J, Scott O'Leary
of the Olympic club of Ban Francisco
v.as .second and W. OMalley of Ocean
Park third. !
The starters in the event were Frank
Holborow of Venice. J. Ceott O'Leary
Of the Olympic club, W. O'Malley of
Ocean Park, .1. B. Long of Los An
geles. George Watkins of Ocean Park,
Barnwell of Ocean Park and Morengo.
Holborow started off with his straight
double "O" stroke and was a clean
length ahead of his nearest competi
tor.
The competitive high dive was won
by George Watkins of Ocean Park,
with Clifford Bowes, the juvenile won
der, a close second and Louis Paulsen
of the Piedmont Athletic club of Oak
land, thud. Indeed, the points of the:
three winners were so closely averaged
that the judges labored long and
earnestly before they rendered their
decision, and then there was only one-,
hajlf point between the men. The-;
Judges 1 was us follows: Watkins,
rii'j. Bowes "C> and Paulson 66*.
Boy Divers Compete
The competitors in this event were
Watklns, Ocean Park; Lauer, Ocean
Park: Seaman, Ocean Park: Clifford
Bowes, Venice; Andrew Scholts, Ven
ice: Charles Colt, Venice; Howeii Rich-'
ardaon, Ocean Park, and Louis Paul
son, Piedmont Athletic club of Oakland.
In the Straight front Watkins took
off with a clean dive, followed by
Pcholtz. who made a graceful plunge,
but went over the mark. Lauer, Pea- 1
man rind Bowes followed, the latter, a
boy of 14. making n beautiful, easyi
■weep and cleaving the water like a
knife. Colt made an Indifferent plunge,;
followed by Howell Richardson, another
14-year-old swimmer, whose perform
ance was cheered to the echo by the
spectators. Paulson made a straight, I
easy plnnge, aided by a slight spring,
which brought him gracefully Into the
>■. iter
7n the straight back. Watklns made
another clean dive, followed by Bcholtg
who crabbed. Lauer fell on his back,
and Heamans on his side. Bowes let I
his legg overbalance hi mand lost a]
point. Colt turned clear over. Rich
ardson made a heavy plunge and Paul-,
son followed witii a poor exhibition,!
which probably lost him the plp.ee.
In the front Jack-knife, Watklns took '
n graceful half bend and entered the
water ilke a dart. Seholtz followed
with one to match Watklns, while Lau
er crabbed. Seaman made a monstrous,
lesr splash, and Bowes came down with'
his lc'_-s river his face. Colt. Richard
son nnd Paulson went over the mark.
Floats to Water
In the cutaway, or back Jack-knife.
Watklns fairly floated to the water. I
followed by Seholtz nnd Lauer, who
made good exhibitions. Seaman made
a splendid dive, while Colt, Richard
son and Paulson did not do so well.
In the one-and-one-half, Watklns 1
started with a fairly prood performance,
■\vhlie Scholta created an affect that
would have done Justice to the great
geyser of Yellowstone park. Lauer
went to one si.ie, while Seaman created
a water spout. Howes showed his su
periority iii this method of diving by
making what the crowd destgnati
a "pea.h." Colt's performance was of a
like nature. Richardson is new to this
kind of diving, but showed his game
by making the attempt and a bltr I
splash. Paulson's effort was very cred
itable.
In the final, or high dives, the con
testants were required to take two dif
ferent styles from the forty-foot plat- .
form, being allowed to choose their
manner of diving. Watklns made a
pretty jack-knife for a starter. Bcholtz
nnd Lauer made beautiful straight
dives. Seaman followed with B jack
knife and Howes made one of the pret
tiest of the evening. Colt essayed a
hack jack-knife, which was well done,
and Richardson made a straight.,
220-Yard Dash
In the second round Watklns made
a pretty, straight dive, Seholtz and
Lauer followed with indifferent per
formances. Seaman made his best dive
of the contest and Bowes took off with i
a beautiful back jack-knife, which won |
the applause of the house and won '
him hi; second place. Colt, in ai
Straight dive, was followed by Rich
nrdson, who made his first back jack
knife in first claw shape. Paulson
struck his head.
Marcus Lee, entered from Venice,
won the 2^o-yard dash In 2 minutes
and 53 seconds, deflating a field of
seven. George Bond of the Olympic
club of San Fram ISCO was second and
Prank Holborow third. The winner!
used the double "O" stroke and won i
his race by defeating Abcg at the I
turns. The latter lost his race by his '
inability to negotiate these In quick
time.

VERNON LOSES ANOTHER GAME
TO McCREDIE'S OREGON SLUGGERS |
TIMELY TOPICS
A. E. Dunning
fpiCKET scalping at Naud Junction
±must cease. This Is tho dictum
of Tom McCarey of the I'acilV
Athletic club, and he will endeavor to
see that the pi act ice Is stopped. Tlw
recent disgraceful experiences in tlv
northern lights have aroused the local
promoters and the management win
see to it that arrangements are made
whereby nil those who arrlvt .it the
Naud Junction pavilion the nights of
both fights and apply for gallery Heats,
.whloh are not sold until the evening
lof battle, will receive fair and Just
treatment. This scalping of admission
slips has long been a nuisance and
worse. There are men who havo
profited by it, who cared not a whit
for the publla's comfort. But this is
hmt characteristic of McCarey's meth
od*. He has consistently sought In
every way to protect the public In his
ring battles, and to this end he will go
ctretne measures if necessary to
put out of existence the reprehensible
ticket scalping. A full opportunity will
be afforded the public to buy tickets
first hand, and all patrons nre urged to
give the scalpers a cold reception In
order to assist the manager in stamp
ing out this ovll. If necessary an au
tomobile will be hired to sell tickets to
the crowd, and police aid has been
promised if such becomes necessary.
The pinch hitter's life Is far froMi
being a continual bed of roses. To the
casual observer it appears pretty soft
for a man to sit on the bench every
afternoon for seven or eipht Innings,
with nothing to do but watch tho
game, and then be called on to step to
the plate in a pinch to hit for some
I weak striker.
Nothing of the kind. The man Who
is kept i>u the pay roll to do stunts
o*i this sort has his work cut out for
hitn. and. even though the rest of tin
regulars toll htm what a snap he has,
no! one of them would willingly ex
change places with him.
pinch hitter holds his Job be
cause he can swat the ball. Kvery
time he is sent to hit for some one he
is aware that it's up to him to deliver
a safe drive.
lie has been sitting on the bench pos
sibly the greatest part of the after
noon without getting a chance to see
what sort of stuff the pitcher is serv-
I ing, and he knows that the moment he
steps to the plate the flinger ■will de
liver everything in his repertoire.
Then every one in the stands Is look
ing to him to clout and banking on
i him to make good. The fans seldom
i take into consideration that, no matter
how good a hitter a player may be, he
only makes about one base hit in every
three trips to the plate.

ing In ills ears at a time like that Is
mighty fine, but docs it atone for the
time alter time lie has failed to deliver

ticularly ribald fan yell:
"Get. out, you biginutt! You couldn't
Call out of a boat and hit the water!"
The National Baseball commission
has given out the following, promul
gating a new rule:
"The attention of the commission has
recently been called to the i'uet that
certain semi-professional players who
are under contract with clubs of the
semi-professional leagues of Clii
had been Induced to Sinn contracts with
national agreement clubs and In certain
Instances ha\e violated contracts that
they enter Into with the semi-profes
sional clubs. The commission Ih of
the opinion, that this is absolutely un
just and for that reason tho following
rule Is adopted:
"Rule 60—Whenever a semi-profes
sional player signs a contract with a
semi-professional te.nn. said contract
is to be respected the same as if it
had been entered Into by the player
with a national agreement olub, and
under no conditions will any national
agreement club be permitted to sign
such players to any other contracts
until after the expiration of the play
er's contract with the semi-professional
team, provided, however, that any na
tional agreement club owner can en
ter into an agreement for the pur
chase or release of such player, either
for the year for which said player Is
under contract with nuch semi-profes
sional team or for future use, with tho
club owner of the semi-professional
team to whom the player Is under con
tract, but in all suyh cases the con
sent of the player must Ije obtained
before such an agreement can be en
tered Into."
"Rule M, relative to national agree
ment players and clubs, formerly pro
vided that options on minor league
players could he exercised by major
league clubs on August 20 and that
players must report three days later.
An amendment to this rule Is also pro
mulgated and the new provision is to
the effect that the national baseball
commission mny. If It so desires, grant
the minor league club the player's
service for the remainder of the sea
son. '

cision by Umpire McCarthy and Shlnn's
error gave Los 'An gules the assistance
today with which they beat Sacra
mento 3 to 1. Janslng'B clumsy method
of covering third base on putouts gave
McCarthy an opportunity to rule :

Carthy did not catch the swing and
called Dillon safe. A passed ball let
