Oct. 9. (Spe cial.) Wo have met the enemy and they are ours." Today's double bill re sulted as yesterday, both teams set tins; a scalp. In the morning- gam at Vernon tha Hoganltes captured tha contest by tha score of 4 to I. but the Bearer boys came back In tha afternoon, winning a hard-fought battle. 3 to 0. thus taking five of the eight games played. In the morning game Tom Seaton was opposed by "Southpaw" 1 lilt. and pitched winning ball until the sixth Inning, when timely hits by the Hooli gans netted three runs, enough to cinch the game. The Beaver lads, al though making a gallant light, were held In check by Hogan's port-slder. The afternoon game was the best played of the series and a crowd of about 10,000 was on hand. Ilarkaeaa la Fit Condition. "Spec" Harkness pitched a game that would win In any league. His per fect control and puzxltng curves net ted "Hap's" men but four blngles and he was master of the situation In every Inning. Coming from the coaching line about the eighth Inning. Hogan was heard to remark that he would giro $2600 for a pitcher of "Spec's" cal iber. Ihe tall twlrler fought every inch ef the way and was not backward In telling the umpire to watch balls and strikes mors closely. Besides tbe clerer twirling of Hark ness, the fielding of Ryan and Sheehan and the batting of Peckinpaugh were features. On two occasions "Peck" came to the rescue of the Beaver camp by smashing out timely hits, driving In runs, while "Buddy" In centerfleld waa as brilliant as a Fielder Jones, his one-hand catch of Brown's liner while running at top speed astonishing the OVERFLOWING CROWD AND EXCITING INCIDENTS IN GAME OF fr laaa . lit v lW'&jrFi F . - . t - .; "sUa . -V a . - ...e--e-- , - - STtngily tt.sKii i native, and someone yelled from the stand: "Give us a few Ryana, nappy. Captain Sheehan, at third base, per formed nobly, handling many .hard chances with the ease and grace for whlcb ho is noted, and was aa steady as a good clock during tha entire game. Near-Riot Seea la Sixth. A near-riot occurred In the sixth In ning when Ross attempted to steal second base. Patterson interfered with La Longe's throw and the runner was sent back to first base, while the batsman was Justly called out by Um pire Van Haltren. Hogan and his now desperate Tigers argued for several minutes with the judge of the play, but to no avail, as the interference was deliberate. No other decision could hava been made. In the seventh, Chadbourne tripled to the score board in deep center and Rodgers singled, scoring the fleet-footed fielder, thus clnohlng a game that abounded wltb more Interest than a.ij games yet produced by the Pacific Coast League. For enthusiasm and ex citement the coming world's series hardly will surpass the one Just closed between the game Beaver and the fighting, snarling Tiger. The great est series between teams of a class A league Is now a matter of history and It is the consensus of opinion in this "neck of ths woods" that It will bs years before such Interest will be shown again on the Pacific Coast. General Sherman bad the correct Idea of war. for the past conflicts here hare unnerved everybody connected with baseball. The Intense excitement and deafening noise will be remem bered for a long- time by both fans and players. Hoxaa Haa "Toujcb Ksrt to Crack." We bare decisively beaten Hogan'a warriors In their own backyard, and if there is anything blocking our way to the desired flag It cannot be seen by a Beaver eye. However, we are not unmindful of the fact that the Angels, with whom we begin a series tomorrow, trimmed us five of the seren games played during our last visit there. But we are now In better shape than then and every man flying Portland colors is confident of winning from the Los Angeles boys. While we are fighting Dillon's charges, Hogan will have a tough nut to crack In the Oakland aggregation. After the games today Hogan said to Dillon: "I will give $25 to every pitcher of your team who wins from the Bearers, and more than that I will give you $25 for every victory." Hogan meant what he said, so that Dillon will leave no stone unturned to beat us. Every member of the Beaver squad Is well, with the exception of Bill Lindsay, whose injury Is still pain ful. All are confident of bringing an other pennant back to Portland. Mankurti to Race Thomas. A special match race between Gus Mankurts and Louis Thomas.

NO CINCH ON PENNANT YET Dope Sheet Shows McCredie's Lads Must Better Average of Wins lor Tear In Ix9 Angeles and San Francisco to Win. BT ROSCOB FAWCETT. Nineteen wins In the last 24 games Is. quite a record. Tet nine rlctorles In the last II con tests with the team already proudly boasting of the 1911 pennant must make the tramp of Bearer footsteps on Vernon streets sound as cheerful to Villager ears as a call for help or an Aslatlo plague horn. The Bearers left here nearly two games behind Vernon Just nine days ago. Portland partisians declared then that five games In the eight down South would cinch the pennant. Well, ther took the five and the teams now stand Portland .69S, Vernon .68S. Yet unless the Beavers better the average of wins for the year in the Los An geles and San Francisco series to come they stand aa excellent chance of los ing out. In the season's play with Los An geles the Bearers have won 17 and lost 15. In the series of the past with San Francisco the Bearers hare won 17 and lost IS. Basing prognostications for the coming fortnight on this past performance commodity P o r 1 1 a a d should take five of the eight from Los Angeles and four of the seven at Seal rille. This will give the Beavers a final standing of 114 wins and 78 loss es, or a percentage of .593. If Vernon maintains the average of Its wins and losses with the Oaks and Angels for the ensuing two weeks Hogan's final checking will show 123 wins and SS losses, a percentage of .597, or more than one game better than the Beavers. Delving Into details Vernon has won 20 from Oakland to data and lost but 14, so should cop at least six of the eight to come this week. Vernon has also upset Los An geles' equilibrium to the extent of 26 wins and only eight defeats, ao should RECORD SERIES JUST ENDED BETWEEN PORTLAND AND VERNON t tiiy' smuisn'Or C For$20 to $45 iivi - to produce -nem4!I;. more u -, -, r-&jkmL-i im,r?iJ better fit and bet- V ter material than you will find here this Fall in STEIN-BLOCH Smart Clothes for Closing OutHardware Tools, Cutlery, Sporting and Football Goods, Mechanics' Tools.

Even though Wolverton does set an even split, Hoiran might again Jar ahead by making up the Iwo games In the Los Angeles curtain dropper. We have bim scheduled for Ave. He may take all seven. Certain of one thing at least, Port land will have to win 10 of the next 15 scheduled affrays to claim the cheesecloth. How would this look six in eight from Los Angeles and flva In seven from Danny Lang? a The official statistics of the TTnlon Association, compiled by President Lucas, give a line on the players who were drafted from this league by Port land: Mathes, the shortstop, batted .293 in 137 games and was seventh in field ing his position with a percentage of .860. He stole SO bases. Kibble, the third baseman, batted .258 and stole 17 bases. He was third among the guardians of the difficult corner, hav-ina- a percentage of .818. Byrd failed to win half of his games, his record being 17 won and 20 lost. a a Following New York's last appear ance in Chicago, Manager Frank Chance, of the Cubs, who has guided his team in four world's series, de clared that he is Inclined to favor the Giants In the forthcoming struggle. "Nobody need worry about Mathew son," says the peerless one. "He will surely beat the Athletics and If he has a strong twirler to help him out the Giants will win the series. The cham pionship will depend entirely upon the pitching. If they had to play a whole season against each other, the Giants would beat them out with ease, but in a series of seven gamea the bulk of the pitching strength will have to be brought into service at once. "Mack has two great pitchers In Coombs and Bender. Of these Bender is the better. While Coombs beat us three games last Fall he should not have won any of them. In one game t he allowed us nine passes, but the luck broke bad for us. No pitcher in the world can give the Giants such liberties and get away with it. "McGraw is grooming Mathewson so that 'Big Six' will be Just right at the critical time, and he is acting with wis dom. He is the greatest pitcher in the world today, and against a team that has not batted against him regularly he Is practically Invincible. He will be Just as strong against the Athletics as he was against the Highlanders in the series last Fall. " GOLFERS PICKED FOR, TEA3I Portland Men Expect to Win Trophy From Seattle. Interest of golf enthusiasts Is cen tered on the preparatory work of the men selected to represent the Waverly Golf Club In the annual Northwest team match, which this year will be played on the links of the Seattle Golf Cluf, Saturday.
