Bill Steen asked to be sent against the Vernon team and demonstrated yes terday that he is- not a '."has-been." Aided by good support on behalf of his teammates, he blanked Happy Hogan's Vernon Brewers by the score of 2 to 0. Steen was complete master of the sit uation at all stages of the frame and allowed the Vernonites only three singles, none of which started any thing more than a flash in the pan. Only two men got to second base all throughout the game and nobody got beyond that station. Real Live Game Played. On the day previous both teams were Inclined to loaf in the field and showed practically no life after the first in ning, but there was quite a contrast with yesterday's contest, for all the boys were up on their toes and playing the game every minute, Portland espe cially having lots of ginger in their playing. After the first inning, when the local boys won the game by scoring two runs on two hits and some clever base-running by Rapps, Brackenridge, who usually "has it on" Portland, got into some pretty bad holes, but at the last moment pulled out by a comfortable margin and blanked the Beaver play ers. While the slim one's offerings were not garnered for a large total of hits, a number of those that were got ten were for extra bases. All of the Portland players hit the ball bard but usually Into the hands of some waiting Vernon player. Buddy Ryan caught the Vernon bat tery asleep in the third inning and laid down a pretty bunt In front of the plate. Brown, who did the receiving honors,- was so surprised that he heaved the sphere too high for "Kitty" Bra shear to get and Ryan continued on to second, winning by a pretty slide. It was a clever play. Ryan displayed more life yesterday than at any time for days. He hit a pretty double into left field in the fifth inning and went 'to third on an error by Shortstop Lind sey. but was left there because Rapps popped out to center field. Portland Busy In First. McCredie's men assailed the offerings of Brackenridge in the very first in ning and won the game just as they did on the day before. Ryan was an easy out, but Olson, the second man up, placed a pretty hit into deep cen ter field, on which he galloped around to third before the Vernon fielders c-ould recover the ball. Rapps proved the pinch-hitter by neatly hitting a single to right field on which Olson scored the first run. Rapps promptly stole second and Fisher walked. Martinke hit a long fly to Stovall In center field on which Rapps beat the throw to third base. McCredie called for the double steal. "When Brown threw short to Roy Brash ear, the latter was too anxious to relay the ball back to the plate again and muffed, both men being safe, Rapps crossing the rubber with the second and last run of the game. Hetling failed to stir anything and was an easy out. In the fourth inning, Gus Fisher tri pled to extreme left field. Carlisle made a great try for the ball but missed narrowly.- Hetling sent a sizzler to Hoy Brashear, who in turn relayed to Brown, who caught Fisher sliding to the plate. That Was the nearest there was to a score after the first inning. Either Willett. the ex-Portland twirl er. or Hensling will pitch for Ver non today, while McCredie will dele gate either Garrett or Seaton to do the honors for Portland. The score: VERNON.

PHYSICIAN GIVES OPINION Reno Is Fight Mad and Hundreds of Additional "Lunatics' Swarming In From All Directions. Accommodations Scarce. DAY IX RENO RRVITEW BI. RENO, Kev.. June 30. (Special.) Both fighters have finished with hard training-. Jeffries goes fishing, but does absolutely no boxing. Jack Johnson goes on road in the morning and In the afternoon boxes for the benefit of the moving pictures. He announces his weight at 209 pounds and says he wll! do no more hard exercising and will look carefully after his hands. Joe Woodman -visits the Johnson camp and after he refuses to leave the premises, is ordered away by Johnson. The colored champion issues a deft to Tommy Burns to come out to his quarters and fight ten rounds. John son promises to stop the Canadian inside of the limit or forfeit $10,000. Charlie White arrives from the East and accents the position of second referee. Tex Rlckard Insists that he will go into the ring next Monday as the main referee. Dewltt Van Court writes a story in which he speaks of Jeffries' excel lent chances of winning the fight. Betting is growing heavier. John son has announced his intention of wagering $5000 on his own chances of winning. Dick Abrams, presum ably acting for Jeffries, will bet $2000. BY JACK GRANT. RENO, Nev., June 30. (Special.) Reno is fight mad, and the town can't be blamed. Tbere are hundreds of visitors in the little sagebrush city, and hundreds more arriving on every train. I got in this morning and found it hard work to get accommodations. But I was soon located and had a chance this afternoon to visit Jeffries at his camp, and to have a talk with him, even though he was not doing any work. All along I have figured that Jeffries is a cinch to win this fight, and now that I have looked him over and talked to people, there is no reason why I should change my mind. He appears to me to be in grand shape. I think he is far better than when he last fought Bob Fitzsimmons, and that is saying a good deal. So far as I have been able to see, lie has answered In the affirmative the question of whether he can come iack. Jeffries Greeting Pleasant. Jeffries was playing cards when I vis ited him. He greeted me pleasantly enough, and we had quite a talk. I didn't stay very long, however, for you all know how little he likes to talk. Then I had talks with Joe ChoynskI, Bob Arbstrong and Roger Cornell. It is my belief that Jeffries is doing a lot of early morning work that the newspaper men do oot know anything about. I talked par ticularly with Armstrong. He tells me that Jeffries Is wonderfully strong, and that his condition couldn't be improved upon. Dr. Willlam Porter, of Oakland, made a thorough examination of Jeffries this afternoon and I happened to be on the COTTON BOXING. veranda when the doctor reported to Mrs. Jeffries. This is what he said: "You don't need to worry about your husband, Mrs. Jeffries. He is one of the finest specimens of manhood I have ever seen. He is not too fat, and, while I am no trainer, I want to say that you can bank on it that he Is in shape. I had him bend over to see if there was any extra fat on. him, but there is not a bit." Big Fellow Not Worrying. The big fellow is not worrying over the fight, which is the best sign to me. He is taking everything as a matter of course. Having finished his training, he is now prepared to wait until Monday afternoon. Then he will do his work, and the people of America, will have no reason to be ashamedof him.- I am going to visit Johnson tomorrow and then I hope to be able to tell the readers of The Oregonlan something about how the - .black man sizes up. "Tex" Rlckard tells me that there will be a great crowd on hand. He has a seating, capacity of 16,000 and he expects to fill the arena so that it will be jammed up to the doors. I look for something like t300,000 in the house. Jack Fay and Dr. Loomis are among the Portland people here. HIGH-POWER. CYCLE COMIXG Machine Is Capable of Two Miles a Minute on Straight Track. In preparation for Sunday's races members of the Portland Motor Cycle Club, which is conducting the races, were at the race track of the Portland Country Club again last night going through speed trials and getting their cycles into first-class racing order for Sunday. Portland lovers of fast riding will have an opportunity of seeing one of the highest power cycles in the United States give an . exhibition on Sunday. This machine is a 9-horsepower four cylinder Pierce and was shipped out here for the races. As it will be the only machine of that power here it will not race in any of the regular events, but probably will be ridden by 'J. Bowan In an exhibition; This cycle, on a straight track, is capable of going nearly two miles a minute. On the flat circular track of the Portland Country Club it is expected to do bet ter than a mile a minute. Sunday's races will begin at about 2 o'clock. Eleven races are carded, in addition to two specials, one of which will be the race between Fred Wyatt and Charles Dyde for a side bet of $100.

The surprise of the racing at Sheepshad Bay today was the defeat of Ocean Bound, the 1 to 15 favorite, by Amelia Jenks in the Mermaid stakes at one mile, . Heavy Training Ends Because Ad visers of Two Big Fighters Do Not Want Them to Take Any Chances With Their Hands. BY HAERT B. SMITH. RENO, Nev., June 30. (Special.) Jack Johnson had an extremely busy day of it at Rick's quarters. First of all he paid his respects to one Thomas Burns, and told the press that "Mlsta,h" Burns could come out to his quarters any day before the fight and win 10,000 by merely sticking ten rounds. Then he assisted in the chucking off the premises of Joe Woodman, who as manager of one Samuel Langford, of Boston,, has incurred the enmity of the colored champion. After these two affairs the Texan succumbed to the moving picture fever and posed in every possible attitude, all the way from driving a pacer to feeding the chickens. This work of taking moving pictures of Johnson is as much unlike the process of doing the same thing with Jeffries as the Governor of Nevada Is unlike some other Governors we have met. Jeff Hates Pictures. Jeffries abhors it, while, to use the vernacular of the street, "John Arthur eats it up." The dusky champion could not get enough of the picture scheme, and he drove around in circles until there was no more film left. But the crowning climax was after the lunch hour, when Johnson was shoot ing some craps on the porch. Just for amusement. Hearing of the incident, the picture men planted their machines In the thick of the scenery. "Better hurry up with that ma chine," hollered one of the Interested crowd, "or Johnson will have all the money and there won't be any more game." So they hurried and they will have the opportunity of producing one Jack Johnson coaxing "the bones" to be good to him. Burns Incident Biting. The arraignment of Thomas Burns, ex-heavyweight champion of the world by grace of the ability of this same Johnson in a little affair they had over in Australia, was as artistic and biting as the author could make it. What Johnson lacked in sarcasm to put his recent opponent on the grid dle, he made up in the venom which accompanied his denunciation. John son was more than peeved because Burns had told a newspaper man in San Francisco that the negro had a "yellow streak." He let loose the vials of his wrath, and when he wound up there was not much left of the Ca nadian. - It is hardly likely that the Canadian will attempt to pay another visit to the Johnson camp, but If so, he is as sured a mighty warm reception. Woodman Affair Next. Save for the fact that Johnson per sonally superintended the removal of Woodman, the incident would have beeen barren of interest. In fact, there were few of the crowd who were aware that Woodman had been re quested to leave. When Johnson heard that Woodman was on the premises, he sent down word by members of his staff that the handler of Sam Langford was not de sired at the training quarters. "Im here on moving picture busi ness," replied Woodman. "Then, there ain't going to be no moving pictures," said Jack. "I've asked you once before to go, and now will you please vacate? You know what exists between you and I." "All right, kid." said Woodman, with a smile, "I'll leave right away," which was an end to the Johnson-Woodman incident, unless it happens that there is a reconciliation brought about by some clever press agent. Picture Story Interests. The story of the taking of the moving pictures is a story in itself, and a part and parcel of the trairting-camp life. Tiiere was picture work in the fore noon and more in the afternoon, so that. If everything taken of Johnson is shown on the screen, there will be sufficient for all to gaze at. The boxing has' been finished in both camps, according to announcement made late this afternoon from the vari ous headquarters. As a matter of fact, boxing and all heavy work was prac tically concluded yesterday. Jeffries did absolutely nothing today of mo ment, while the Johnson exercising was chiefly for the sake of the picture men. No Chance With Hands Taken. - It Is not so much that the fighters are unwilling to take further training, but rather that their advisers are op posed to their taking any chances with their hands with the fight barely four days off. Instead of boxing, which might temporarily injure either man, there will be the steady grind on the ground to keep the pugilistic athletes in trim. So far as an outward examination of the men goes, there is little to be desired in the way of improvement. The Improve ment in Jeffries' condition has won over to him many supporters who were doubt ing Thomases at the outset; men who were unable to believe that he could get in any sort of shape. At the same time, there are shrewd Judges of form who shake their heads and declare there are points about the physical condition of Jeffries, notably the short breaths' that he occasionally takes during hi3 work, that they do not like. Black's Condition Superb. Johnson appears trained as finely as a man could be trained. Hovering around the 209 mark for the past few days, he has no superfluous flesh but what can easily be taken oft In' the drying out process that naturally follows. Slzeups of the two men can be made as well at the present stage of affairs as the day before the fight, for their con dition, although carefully watched by their trainers, can hardly change in the Intervening time between now and the day of the big contest. The few days will be crammed for the fighters and the numerous others who have ben watching their training from the day operations were first commenced. A telegram was received tonight from three Portland men, offering J175.000 for the moving picture rights outside the United States providing the fight goes 20 rounds or less, and J200.000 if the fight goes more than that distance. The men are George H. Wiggs, E. K. Brown and O. E. Baird. The men say they are will ing to put up a deposit. And again we shut out Vernon.

FAST TIME IS FEATURE Crowd of 60,000 Sees Contest Be tween Varsity Eights, In Which Crimson Wins Decisive Vic tory by Finished Work. NEW LONDON, June 30. The setting sun could not tinge the waters of the Thames tonight with a deeper crimson than they had been dyed by the victories of three Harvard crews. On the broad four-mile stretch between this city and Gales Ferry, Harvard met Yale today In their 44th annual rowing regatta. Five lengths was Harvard's margin of victory in the varsity eJght-oard race, three lengths In the freshman eight and four lengths in the varsity four. The freshman four-oared race, won by Yale Wednesday, was the one sweet drop in Yale's bitter cup of defeat. Race Seen by 60,000. It is estimated that 60,000 persons saw the final race and that 40.000 of them were from out of town. This multitude saw three ao thrillir.g races as ever cut the waters of the Thames. Here are the times: Varsity eight Harvard, 30:46V4; Yale, 21:04. Varsity fourHarvard, 13:004: Yale, 13:18. Freshman eight Harvard, 11:45; Yale, 12:02. The varsity four and freshman elght oared races at two miles were rowed up stream this morning. The varsity eights faced four miles down stream this after noon. A quartering northwest breeze that roughened the river and blew in the faces of the crews caused slow time in the early events, but the main race of the day was rowed with ideal water con ditions. Time Fastest Since 190 3. The time was the fastest in any down stream race on the Thames since 1903, when a victorious Yale crew covered the four miles In 20:19 2-5. Yale, 1888, holds the record for the course, 20:10. Harvard's varsity eight averaged seven pounds a man heavier than Yale and one inch taller.' Yale tried to kill off Harvard by set ting a fast pace and pulled the highest stroke that any Yale crew has pulled in years. Starting at 39 strokes to the minute, Yale dropped to 36 at the half mile. Soon after the half-mile flag Yale let her stroke down to 34 to the minute, which was held until near the finish. Harvard started at 37 a minute, dropped to 34 at the half mile, then raised one point at the mile. At the two and one half she raised It one point, but soon dropped to 34 again. When the three and one-half mile point had been passed Stroke Cutter lifted the pace until he was rowing 37 when he crossed the line. Over the last mile Harvard literally rowed away from Yale. Yale's rowing at no time was 60 finished as that of her rival. Fandom at Random STEEN surely had everytning on ine ball yesterday. Pltchisg that class of ball he is practically unbeatable. Three bingles were all that he would allow the Vernonites. Ryan is Improving both at bat and in base running. In the fifth Inning after getting to third base he had Brackenridge bady worried by making numerous breaks for home plate as if to steal. Ike Butler, the ex-Portland flinger, Is. now pitching for Tacoma and beat Seattle yesterday by the score of 3 to 1. The old-timer let the Turks down with but six hits. In a pitchers' battle between Jimmy Whalen and Ralph Tozer pitching for Pa.cramento and Ixis Angeles, respec tively, the former won. Whalen al lowed but five hits, while Tozer al lowed six. At the rate in which New York is going, she will soon head the Na tional League. The Giants, with Cran dall in the box, defeated Brooklyn 2 to 0. On the other hand, the Chicago Cubs, present league leaders, were beaten by the St. Louis squad by the unlucky score of 13 to 8. Five pitchers and three catchers were used by the two teams in that game. Attendance at Cincinnati last Sun day waa only 7500. As Portland has turned out that many to a ball game here it shows what a. baseball town Portland really Is in comparison with the larger cities of the East. ... George W.

He was play ing against Gardner, the Boston crack. Browning, the ex-retroit American League player, who was turned back to San Francisco by the American League "Champs" after a tryout, was handed a beating yesterday by the speedy Oakland team. The Oaklanders landed on him for a total of nine hits and six runs. Christian, the bow legged flinger, opposed him on the mound.
