Vernon made it extremely in teresting for the Beavers, but only pass ing attention was given by the 5000 spec tators who witnessed the afternoon con test, as a young man with a large mega phone heralded the progress of the set tlement of the race question at the little village in Nevada. The scores were 1 to 0 and to 1. The Beavers pulled off championship Inside ball, outside ball and indoor ball, but there was never a time that the band of invaders under the leadership of Happy Hogan had a chance. i Casey and his crew kept their fingers ; I crossed, and, aided by the masterly pitch ; lng of Steen and Gregg, the Hooligans were thoroughly tamed. It was not al together because the Vernon players were unable to hit the ball, but because McCredie's men were playing the game in Benastlonal manner, as well as smear v lng the trademark on a dozen or more i I baseballs as their bats carromed the of ferings of Vernon boxmen to all spots In thf lot. While Portland was hitting when hits meant runs, and shutting off ; , Vernon's ambitions by sensational fielding, the Californians were unable to aid their pitchers. The latter secured all the clean : hits made by the representatives of the ; backyard of Los Angeles. Morning Game Is 1 to 0. While his decisions on the bases were exceptionally good, and he was called upon to make a number or close ones, Umpire Finney had an off day on balls and strikes. His failure to call strikes on Ryan in the first game enabled that -player to circle the bases wtih the only run of the morning. Finney was fair about his distribution of favors, how ever, as he missed them badly on both pitchers. With 2500 people on the grounds the first game began. In the very first inning it looked as though Portland might score. Rapps placed a beauty in center and reached second when Brown threw the ball . away trying to catch him stealing. Alartinke walked, and as Gus Fisher went to the plate he was given an ova tion. The best the popular young catcher "oa!d do was a grounder to "Little Brather" Brashear. Cery Makes Great Stop. Casey took the heart out of the Ver fconites In the second round by a great iop of Coy's apparently safe hit to right, and they were not afterward dangerous. ; In the fourth Inning Steen pitched but six balls. In the sixth Casey, Rapps and Steen figured in one of the greatest plays ever pulled off on the local grounds. Wlllett, the Vernon siabster, was on second as a .result of a bad peg by Fisher, when Stovall slammed one for the right garden at terrific speed. Rapps grabbed at it and the ball was deflected from the shins of the first baseman toward the captain. Casey secured the ball and Steen man aged to receive it at first in time to re- tire the runner for the third out. Feeling so good over the fancy ball his men were playing, McCredie ordered i them to go in and win in their half of the same inning, and it was only the too cautious coaching of the manager which kept the score from standing 2 against 0. Rapps went to first on four bad ones and Martinke bunted, both runners being safe. Fisher hit ' cleanly to right but McCredie held Rapps at third. . 5000 at Afternoon Game. In the seventh, Ryan, the second man up, was fairly retired on strikes which Finney overlooked. Ryan then beat out an infield tap. Ryan stole, and when Brown again overthrew sec . ond, went to third. He scored when Olson made .one of his timely singles to the admiration of the grandstand. Grandstands were filled almost to ca- pacity with more than 5000 holiday seekers when the afternoon game" was called with Vern Gregg, formerly of Spokane, on the firing line for the ; ; Beavers. With his drop ball work ing to perfection the Vernon players were helpless after the first inning. 1 1 Incidentally Vernon secured the only i f run it has succeeded In pushing over the plate in the five games that Gregg , ' has worked against them. i I The Portland yoagster was afflicted ' with bad eyesight in the beginning and walked Carlisle, the first Vernonite to pound the robber with his bat. The ' ' free ticket was immediately turned , into a run. Carlisle Makes First Tally. Carlisle stole second when Fisher . failed to land the ball in a handy place for Olson at second, and Stovall sent '. him to temporary lodging at third. "Big Brother" Brashear brought the center fielder home with a neat sac rifice. "Buddy"- Ryan angrily registered a base hit "off Breckenridge in retalia tion, and kept on to second when Sto- - vail got mixed up in a boxing match . s .with the ball. Olson was safe at first ' ; after beating out a bunt, and both : runners moved up . on a sacrifice by S Rapps. Martinke then singled to right 4 1 field, Ryan and Olson racing over the pan with the only two runs . Portland ; was able to garner. ; Vernon was dangerous in the seventh ' and eighth. In the former Coy received - life at first through a. bad throw by Casey, but was forced at second by "Little Brother" Brashear. The latter stole second, and was doubled at third by Fisher when ' Burrell struck out j . In the eighth Brown was hit by a J pitched ball and went to second on IJreckenridge's jhit to right. Brown was nipped at third by quick fielding of a bunt. The score: Morning game VERNON. AB. R. H. PO. A. E. Carlisle, If 4 0 0 2 O 0 Sto-all. cf 1 4 0 0 2 0 1 X.

Furnishes Good Fourth of July Card. SEVEN EVENTS ARE GIVEN Sargo and Alexandra Queen Are Fargo and Alexandra Queen Are Winners Filly Ruby Light Gives Exhibition- Pace. Despite the fact that the returns from Reno kept most of the people down town, a fine crowd assembled at the track of the Portland Fair & Live stock Association to see the Riverside Driving Club's annual July Fourth race matinee, and enjoyed the speed tests immensely. It really was the best card the club has staged for some time, and all of the races were hotly contested from start to finish. The first race of the day was the Class B trot in which only two of the three entries lined up at the be hest of Starter Sam- Kramer. These were J. P. Porter's Ora May and G. K. Kowitt's Hunkey Dory, for A. O. Hall's Alice Jones was scratched. The Porter entry lost the first heat in 2:23, but came back strong and won the second and third heats. The Howitt . entry seemed to tire, and also broke his stride on several occasions. ' Deputy Takes Two Straight. The second race between three crack trotters was won by C. W. Todd's Dep uty in two straight heats. A. C. Loh mire's Red Skin took second honors, while third place went to T. R. Howitt's Dottie Dimple. This was really one of the best races of the day, and the winner was cheered lustily as he crossed the finish line. The next event on the programme was a special speed trial by a green colt, Ruby Light, owned by Mrs. A. R. Shreve, and trained during the past few weeks by Dick Wilson. This colt is a 2-year-old y Aerolite (2:11 as 3-year old) out of Bertha, one of the most famous brood mares in the country. Six weeks ago Ruby Light could not have paced a mile in six minutes, ac cording to Wilson, and yesterday after noon she went the route In 2:27, pacing the last half in 1:12. a per formance never before equalled to the knowledge of Trainer Wilson, who en joys the distinction of having trained and driven horses on the Grand circuit for over 15 years. "Mrs. Shreve has one of the most remarkable fillies I have ever driven," said Wilson, commenting on the ex hibition race. "Six weeks ago she war one of the greenest pacers I ever handled, and now she shows class enough to warrant me claiming her to be one of the best in the world when she matures. Right now she is the greatest filly In the worfd for the training she has had, and I predict a record for her. I think she will do 2:15 before the Fall meets are over, and if she does she will be a world beater." Special Match Arranged. After this exhibition race a special match race between W. B. Linn's Alex Williams and A. C- Ldhmire's Arc Light was introduced. Mr. Lohmire drove Alex Williams, while Dick Wilson, trainer, of that horse, handled the rib bons over the Lohmire entry. Alex Williams won the race in a nice drive, Lohmire seeming to strive hard to beat his own horse and accomplished the purpose. Ed Aylsworth's Sargo took the Class F trot from L. W. Watts' Hallie B and J. M. Edwards' Winlock in two straight heats. The next race was the Class D pace, which was cleverly taken by Dr. Trevc Jones' Alexandra Queen, which entry was easily the class of the event. With Dr. Jones handling her, the roan mare took the lead in both heat and scored winner with a wide margin each suc cessive heat. Fred T. Merrill's Brown Lace was second and C. A. ' Crof ford's Frederick Zorabro third. The best time was in the second heat, when a mark of 2:26 was made, and Alexandra Queen could probably have bettered that had she been pressed hard. George Kllduff, a 13-year-old lad, on his pony, Babe, won the boys' quarter-mile dash.- Frank Burch, on Tom, jvas second and Frank Meek, on Dolly, was third. EASTERX LEAGUE GAMES. Xational League.
