10 SPORTS Beavers Hammer Joy All Over Diamond Eleven Runs and Nineteen Hits Tell Sad Story of Big* Barney's Downfall RESULTS OF GAMES *nn Franrl»ro. lit Portland, S. Oakland. 9i Los Anfreles. 4.

Slattery If the good people of Boston ever hear of what happened to Barney Joy yesterday afternoon they will await him at the station next spring with battle axes instead bouquets. Awful does not describe it, and the baseball dictionary Is shy a word that would pxpress what the Beavers did to the poi boy when they started. It Is their own fault that they did not make many more runs. • Barney and his team evi dently were perfectly willing that the boys from the north should go as far as tber liked. And they went for 11 runs and 19 hits — a very fair day's work for any man's ball team. Every star on the Beaver lineup soaked the leather for one hit or more. The ag ony lasted for two hours and grew worse and worse as the innings rolled by. The Beavers erred nearly as often as they hit the balL In fact, it seemed as though they figured that everything would be all right in the field pro vided they rode the benders and shoots which the mammoth Kanaka hurled at them. This rough work In the field came near losing the fight for San I'rancisco drew up closer and closer in ning by inning and seemed to be mak ing: a bid for the money. • J But the zenith of Portland's glory tras reached In the ninth spasm. With one of his teammates on every sack Mr. Mott leaned up against a twister that went direct to the clubhouse. Everybody ran and everybody landed at the plate. Two more hits followed s:id after that no one In ,th« houso doubted that Portland would win gx> ing away, unless every man on the team broke a leg or an arm. During the earlier stages of the bat tie some ball that savored of class was passed out by the talent. But grad ually the Beavers began to office up to everything Barney had, which was not a whole lot. Once they got their eyes focused on the leather the fun waxed fast and furious and It never stopped for an Instant till the ninth Inning had passed and the game was over. The great throws of Hlldebrand and Fiper In the earlier periods of the con test cut off . four or five runs which the Beavers seemed about to earn. Hilde pegged three men, all of whom looked like winners. Piper got two more when there did not seem a chance to keep them away from the plate. Hildebrand. Piper and Wil liams did whatever hitting there was on the Snn Francisco side of the credit sheet. The score: PORTLAND AB. B. BH. SB. PO. A. E.

Daroux will not be permitted to receive service for his proposed . winter : poolroom" at Sausalito from the Emeryville track, according to President Thomas H. Wil liams of the New California Jockey club. Williams said today, when ?'. told of Daroux's statement of his' intentions, as printed In The Call: "V have heard nothing of. the, plan and think: it is. a p'pe dream on Dardux's . part. " If It is tru^ that he intends to run" a winter poolroom I.will not stand for any serv ice from the track." Manager Greggains Mas Choice of Two Important Matches for November M'Farland Agrees to Meet Memsic Here joe Thomas and Ketchel May Be Given the Right R. A. Smyth Promoter Alex Greggains. has an em barrassment'of riches in the way .of prospective matches in view at tho present time. He received the follow ing wire from Jack Curley, his Chicago representative, last night: "Packy Mc- Farland will take Memsic match at 133 pounds ringside. What are the best terms and date?" According to Greggains, this match can' be made, as Memsic found while training for Gans at Los Angeles that he could get down to 133 pounds and still be strong. Memsic is in the south at present, but his representative, Keating, is in Oakland and will be visited by Greggains today, when the terms jof a match with the Chicago boxer will be discussed. While Greggains Is proceeding with his negotiations for this match, he says he would give the preference to a meet ing between Ketchel and Joe Thomas. This Is the match he thinks the public would patronize the best and the one that would be sure to give satisfaction, which Is an Important factor at the present time. ' Thomas had a talk with Greggains last night on the subject. Manager O'Connor left yesterday morn ing for Healdsburg to talk over fight prospeots with Ketchel. »It is possible the match may be clinched today. The fighters have given up all hope of Jack Gleason getting a permit for November and. they think he should relas« them from the agreoment which binds them to fight In this city before his club on Thanksgiving day. Thomas has said that he does not want any part of the forfeit posted by Gleason, but he does want the right to go ahead and make another match If the opportunity presents itself. He does not want to wait until December. Thomas returned from Sonoma yes terday, where he has been the guest of Morris Levy on the latter's farm for two weeks. Joe is an advocate of the simple life and Is enthusiastic on the subject of chickens and other products of the farm. \u25a0'.I* ''-i-i'V* ' * ' Jack Johnson and Jim Flynn will keep open house for the followers of boxing at their respective training quarters tomorrow. Flynn Is at Shan non's near San Rafael. He has a 215 pound sparring partner who is ex pected to make him step lively. John son and Denver Ed Martin will per form in the big gymnasium at Joe Mil lett's place near Colma. Both are big and clever and their exhibition should be worth seeing. Johnson has a won derful style of boxing and . Martin knows how to bring It to the surface. They are both more than six feet tall and weigh more than 200 pounds. With another week's work on the road and in the gymnasium, Johnson will commence to lose some of his weight and will present the trim appearance which he always shows In the ring. Ben Ban Wins the Fordham Handicap Special by Leased Wire to The Call NEW YORK, Oct 18.— Harry Payne Whitney's fine mare Brookdale Nymph failed by a few Inches at Belmont Park today to win the third of the autumn serial handicaps, the first two of which she had won on October 9 and 14 re spectively. In the first race she car ried 117 pounds and ran six furlongs over the main course in 1:12 2-6: In the second she carried 124 pounds to victory and ran six and a half furlongs In 1:17 2-5, a new track record around the turn. In the third of the series, run today, Brookdale Nymph carried 139 pounds and by only a narrow margin lost to H. B. Duryea's Ben Ban, 119 pounds. Both racers are of the same age. The high wind prevented any ap proach to the seven furlong track rec ord. There were many who thought that If Jockey Dugan had saved Brook dale Nymph a little for a final effort she might have won. Brookdale Nymph aroused admira tion by her excellent performance, but there were not a few who thought Jack Atkin at 137 pounds was set a hard task for a 3 year old. He was in poor luck, however, at the start. . "Dave" Jonhson and a limited number of his friends had a commission of $15,000 on Wave Crest to win the sec ond race and they cashed with little or no tremors. They won $20,000 on Wave Crest.

V f , Lick and Wilmerding Will Meet Today Football Players of the' Rival Schools to Contest for the Suhleague Championship The standing of the high school foot- .: ball elevens of this city will be de cided this morning when the ' Wilmerd ing and Lick schools will try conclu sions \u25a0on the Alameda gridiron -for the subleague championship of the academ ic athletic league. It 'will be Wilmerding's first appear ance in. a league game this season and although Lick outranks Wilmerding in experience the latter team will not go into the game unprepared, as the men have" been, practicing since school op-; ened for the season. Trowbrldge, Wilmerding's captain and right half, has been the backbone of the team during the training period and has instilled spirit into his men. Tiscornla, the school's coach, says that if the team does lose it will give Lick a harder struggle than did Lowell a week ago. Lick. will go Into the game, without Graff, -the fullback, who has proved himself such a consistent ground gain er. Newton will shift from right end to^fullback. He has shown that he- is well able to' fill his new position. Other than the change at full, the players will line up in the field exactly as they did against Lowell. • Although v the ; schools will try hard^ to wrest the r laurels from each other; there does not exist that rivalry be -" tween them {; that : is common to ? the other high schools. Lick and Wilmerd ing are situated one block apart and Mr. Merrill acts as . principal ' for both, so the team sustaining defeat -will have the consolation 'of acknowledging that her sister school was victor.' ; The teams will line up: Lick.

Men: From the Sagebrush State to Meet the Blue and Gold at Berkeley William Unmack ..•The Nevada university Rugby foot ballers arrived yesterday morning and in the afternoon indulged In light prac tice and scrum work. The sagebrush boys have a good idea of the game and expect to give the blue and gold team a hard contest. ' Captain Freeman is playing an exceptionally good game in the forward division. The blue and gold players have an ex tra fine array of men'this year and will leave no stone unturned to record a victory this afternoon. -They were de feated last year/ by Nevada, but expect to turn the tables. Captain Fuller at wing "forward is showing first class form this season. He follows up well and -wilPber'a dangerous man in the loose play this afternoon. The Califor nia- pack is very strong, and I fully expect to see the boys play a fine gamo today, especially in scrum » work. The Nevada backs are said to be strong in defense, work, and rely on their ability in this department of the i game to keep the Calif ornlans from scoring. The California backs, how ever;, are a shifty lot and will need a great deal of watching. 4 Coach Cameron of Nevada university is well pleased with the showing hla boys made against the Barbarians last week, and says if they play as good a game today a really fine exhibition of Rugby will be given. It is probable that Lafferty will ref eree the California-Nevada game to day. He refereed at Reno last Satur day and gave a fast and open game. Lafferty Is an ex-member of the New South Wales referees' association and has handled the whistle in many, im portant games. He i 3 well versed in the theory of the game, and his prac tical ability was proved By his splendid work la3t Saturday. The Nevada boys will line up as fol lows: Fullbnel. Boeder; three-quarteri. Hosul. Por ter, Herd; HTe-eishth, Folsom.'Selby: balf. Ken nedy; win* forward. George; forwards, Leavitt. Kent. -Woithall, Free man (captain), Tillotaon.

Fair banks. Barnicott. Olascock, AsUey, Harris. Marlcwhat. The Barbarians < will leave on the 1:40 train today to" fulfill their engage ment with the Stanford university. The black "and white team has been reinforced by the return ot Capta'.n Elliot and Buckingham. Another man who has greatly strengthened the black division is Friedlander, who holds the; scrum half position. The Barbarians' full team will be able to get away to day and a first' class game is looked for. In the Stanford lineup several of the freshmen are included. Brown, who put up such a fine defense at fullback last Sunday, will be in the same po sition today. Fenton will be moved to half. Reed is being r tried out on | the three-quarter wing and ought to make good. It Is not yet certain if Vandervort will be able to play. Hu sustained .; a slight injury and tho coaches want" to take no chances > with him. ' J. G. Moffat, the Oldham referee, will have charge of the game. The following are the players se lected to represent Stanford: : Fallback. Brown; three-quarters. Ui>im:in. Vandvrroort. Keed; five-eighths. Ganon;, Mitch- '\u25a0 ell; half, Fenton; wins forward, Pembertmi: forwards. TerrlU, Koerner (captain). Shaue:\ '\u25a0 Crawford, Miller, Thorpe, Reynolds.

Hyland, ; Shanks, Elliot, Hut ton. Morereley, McWalters. Another game which is attracting n good deal of attention, especially among the high v schoo:s, is the match between Palo Alto and San Jose high schools. " The game will be played on the Stanford oval at 10 o'clock this morning. Short halves of 25 minutes each will be played. Both teams have done well In picking up the game under the able tutelage of Spence and Morris of the Barbarians. t This will be the first Rugby game among the high schools and is being eagerly looked forward to by other high schools not yet in the Rugby fold. The Palo Alto high will line up as : follows: Fallback, McCammon; three-quarters. Rlsilinff. Ma thersou. Miller, 11. Thoburn; halves, W. Tho bttrn, Templeton; wins forward.

R. l'Hommedieu The dealers along automobile row are commencing to make preparations for the coming motor car show, and. judging • from the orders that hav<* been sent to the factories, it is be lieved that the finest lot of exhibition cars ever seen on the coast will be displayed. The show committee has* decided to open v the event with a bt? street parade. The route will be about the same as last year, but an earlier start will be made. Colonel McMullen, an Oakland banker, was the first motorist on th» other side of the bay to purchase a 1908 • White steamer. While an auV enthusiast for some time, he ha 3 nevtr ' before owned a steam car. •. • • Charles McDonald of Oakland Is back from ! a pleasant tour to Lake Taho« In his White steamer, the same car with which he made the perfect score run to Seattle. Charles d'Arcy of the D'Arcy-Scott company .returned yesterday from a trip east, where he attempted to break Whitman's record across the continent. His Dragon car went as far as Ogden and from there was shipped to the fac tory. An accident that happened after leaving Summit practically put the car out of business. SOS D'Arcy lost considerable time by not knowing the roads. He says that after leaving Summit he covered mor« ground over roads he did not know that over those he did know. When he repeats the attempt next year the knowledge gained this season will ma terially assist him. J. J. Borree has answered J. S. Con well's letter concerning tho runoff for the cup over the endurance course to Del Monte. Conwell suggested that they run the event oft! on their next trip to Witter Springs, but Borree does not concur. He says that as the cup was given by Del Monte the run should be to that point. Borree suggests that if perfect scores are made to Del Monte the return trip he made by way of the Santa Crua mountains, Los Gatos, San Jose, Irving^ tan. Niles and Oakland. If perfet^ rrores still continue, ha proposes that they run to Los Ans^lcs and keep going ! in ~a southerly direction until only one car Oaa a perfect 'score. Borree asks that six minutes' leeway be allowed at earh control for the scoring of a perfect score. * He says that as part of the engine of the White and also the Tourist Is itm!<*r tho seat, the con testants should hold to the laws of the automobile club of California and be restricted to sealed bonnets. Borree do*-s not cart? to carry an ob server, as on the previous run he ha«l no observer, and says that the contest should be conducted under the same J. S. Conwell will soon confer with the White managers as to how, where and when, the contest will take place. Fred J.
