BETTER TIMES COMING
FOR THE TIGER FANS
It seems pretty dark and doleful to the Tiger bugs right now,
bat better times are coming. Little Pete Horse will be In Vancou
r«r tomorrow or next day, and that will help some. If Pete is
half the speed marvel they say, he will be a sure enough "first-aid
to-the-injured." But the beauty of Pete i« that he Is a souser from
'way back, and every bug in Tlgerdom knows that is just what la
needed now. From reports from the north it seems that Eddie Burns
baa been going pretty fair, but Eddie is a handy sort of a chap who
1 can fill in anywhere. He is almost too handy as a f 111-ln guy to have
a regular job anyhow.
Good Pitcher Needed
Hinging I* another man who is badly needed—assuming that he
U the good twirler he is touted to be. Hall, Schmutz and McCam
ment can be depended on take regular turns in the box and each is a
consistent performer. Blalne Gordon pitched a nice game In the
Victoria aeries, and will be heard from this summer. So will Oeehan,
when he gets right. But another tip-top man would come in pretty
handy. What the Tigers need more than anything right now is swip
•rs. Games cannot be won without hits, although many are won
with a few. Pulling the right play at the right time, fast base-run
ning and quick-heady all around work are what win games.
Giants Next—Then Victoria
Outside of (In- game Sunday, the fans will have to endure another
.week of loneliness and misery—and then the Tigers and (Hants will
be at It on the local lot. Next week the Tigers go to Spokane, while
the Islanders drop down to Ougtown. Portland will be up with the
Beavers at Vancouver. After finishing with the Giants, May 14, we
Will again have our old friends Eddie, Wat, Totem Pole Dash wood
and the rest of those young (T) speed marvels (?) in our midst, and
It is to be hoped they will be provided better entertainment on this
occasion.
PHILLIES AND TIGERS
GETTING FLYING START
With Earl Moore, the crack pink-tea swirler on the firing line,
the Philadelphia Nationals dropped their second game of 'he season,
making eight won to two lost In the American Detroit has done
even better, having lost but one out of ten. If Detroit gets a flying
start, Connie Mack and his Athletics are going to have an awful
time overhauling them. The same applies to the Phillies in the Na
tional, who were not booked to show any form at all, but who have
been cleaning everything in sight.

MACK BRIDEGROOM, TOO
SO WHAT IS HE TO 00
At last the secret is out. When
those mighty world-subduing
Athletics drop from tho world's
championship last year to the
American league cellar in the
first lap of the pennant race this
spring, it was up to somebody to
explain. But Connie Mack, the
ever resourceful Connie, is on
hand with 'the explanation, and
here it is:
"Too many bridegrooms," la the
reason Connie has ascertained

SOME PRESS AGENT DOPE
BY
WATTELET, HOUSEHOLDER & CO.
Note. —AH parties are cautioned against copying this dope,
bat original stuff will be furnished on short notice. Apply in
person to either Eddie or Wat.
President Wattelet and Manager Householder of Victoria got
busy in Spokane right away, and breezed up to the sporting writers,
with the result that the following little effusions graced the sport
ing pages next day:
"The Speed Boys" is the way Eddie Householder styles his
twirling staff, a six-man aggregation led by* Thomas, Clearwater,
Cal., phenom, and the playing manager of the Victoria Islanders not
only expects his speed boys to trample upon Spokane in the present
series, hut win a pennant for the new Northwestern league entry.
• • •
Thomas, the star of the sextet, has as much speed as Walter
Johnson, star speed artist of the Big Brush, according to Backstop
Dashwood of the Islanders. '
• * •
"When the Tigers strengthen two positions, outfield and short
stop, they cannot be overlooked in the race for the flag," states Eddie.
• •- •
"Likewise forget that smile when you read that I picked Vic
toria to finish in the first division, If not at the top. Why, I have
two men. Ten Million and Bill Goodman, center fielder and third
sacker, who are already sought after by big league scouts, Cincinnati
asking us to name a price on Million, and Both St. Louis clubs bid
ing for Goodman, who managed a club in the Mexican "Cactus"
league last season. And the other fellows are no slouches."
• • •
Eddie Householder reports that Tacoma's attendance waaj { a
recojd-breaker, while the Tiger stronghold looks better froM ' a
baseball standpoint than ever before.

"I have the best teaman the

the men* are so anxious to please

VANCOUVER, April 26.—
| More joy for the Beave.r bugs
1 and likewise more grief in the
i Tiger camp. Bert Hall, the Tiger
town forkball expert, was on the
job for the visitors yesterday, but
somehow his offering failed to
mystify the local heroes, and they
clouted him for 10 hits and 4
runs. In contrast, Ervo Jensen
was airtight until the ninth,
when he weakened a trifle, long
enough to make the situation
tense, but not long enough for
the Tigers to score. Eddie Burns
distinguished himself by his clev
er work at short, but the pitching
of Jensen, who fanned 11 Tigers,
was the feature of the game. The
