Jackson, a raney fellow, who ! seems to be pUyins rlnss about Tom ITennant at first, and Ray Corhan. erst while rhlcaco Sox. at third. Corhan Is a u-vear-old lad who has been ( playing ball for five years, and Is a marvel In neldinK. hut Hoy never has leen a stout batsman. In the West " ern Leaaue. where he maneuvered for four years, he never cot above the .:0 mark, and .300 hitters In that circuit are as common as Baker"s hotnerun ball. Corhan was cracked on the head bv Rus Kord one day last Summer In New York and no less an authority than fielder Jones says he will never be able to conquer hia fear of the ball. In all-around ability Corhan will proh ahlv not be much of an Improvement over Oscar Vfit. now with Ietrolt.

Plrrklac tasT hakv. . Rut the pitchlna staff la renerallv recognised aa the essential component of a wlnntn- minor leaa-ue baseball club, and Portland's showlnsr fir the past two seasons proves It. San Fran cisco's purlins staff, sad to relate, doesn't Impress one as superior to the one the Seals started out with last Sprlnc. If there is any material weak ness in the machinery It is here. Man ner Ixn has lost Sutcr and Brown n and from appearances Jess Raker will be the only sood ritcher raked In from tho foretan harvest. The rest of the staff will bo picked from last year's Mincers, Miller. Noes. Henley. Metkle and Fannlra-. all rlsht-handers. Cark Menley looks rood and says he feels ripe, but Fannlnr has been 111 and al lowed nine hits in six Innlnrs yester day In his work. Toner, a racrutt splt-ball artist, the only one in ramp, shows some promise, but he. too. has been confined to tha mud poultice de partment. Strand, the Northwestern Learua southpaw, lias been mastering- the slow ball under Bill Keldy's tutelage, but will likely not be counted upon to do rerular slab work this year. Comlnr rirht down to cases, the Seals look like contenders, but. with due respect to f,onr. do not seem possessed of the In trinsic atrenath of the Reavers and cer tainly with ellrht prospects for smooth runninc durlnr the early portions of t be season.

"Where is the new pitch er?" asked Catcher Iji I.onse. peer ing around the dining-room one dav last week at the Beavers' training camp. 'Over at the next tahle beside Walt McCredle," replied Ben Henderson. IiiKidlng toward a lone diner clone by. "in It yer kuldlnc." said Mickey. 'Mac's alone over there." But Mae wasn't alone, for the recip ient of the attention was John Gilli uan, tre new pitcher. iOgwd by Port land a couple of weeks ago. This same mixing of identities ha occurred a hundred times since Gilll iwi Joined the suiiad. for thero exists a remarkable resemblance at any dis tanctt beyond 20 or 2b feel. The two men are molded ulon very similar lines. In hulld. in forehead and set of the head. Close up. Mac's nose is sllithtly more Romanesque and his mouth somewhat more determined in Its fadeway contour, hut in the bulk the two miKl't pass for brothers any time. McCredie Is a little larccr than his new pitching possession. lttotoarapher la Fooled. A photocraphrr delegated to ernrp a photograph of McCredie for a l.os Angeles paper, created an endless amount of amusement by rioKiimK Gil lican around the lot for a couple of hours and snapping him at every op portunity. In the grandstand during a recent practice game a young lady marveled at the rapidity with which McCredle changed his uniform. "Why. I saw him with a black uni form just a moment ago," exclaimed the rhe war of th festive chocolate drop aa she iraxed with wondering optics upon tiilligan In hi chalky-huod vestment. Whether or not Gilligan is to atick with the Beavers has beon the subject of more than passing; comment hero because of the ability of the man con corned. Technically the ex-Vancouvap pitching wondor llongs to Columbus of the American Association through an award by the National commission. But as this award was .wound out of the mill after Ctlllgan had negotiated with Portland, and while still a free agent by a former decinion hy the same tribunal, the Portland rebuttal looks formidable. Kvcn -thouKh Portland dooa lose out In the appeal to Garry Herrmann ami his colleagues, McCredie insists he will retain GilliRan. McCredle la Hopeful. "I am pretty close to' Secretary Bohhy Union and Manager Friel. of the. Columbus club." says ho. "Gilligan doesn't want to go back to the associa tion, so 1 guehs I'll have little trouble In putting through a deal to retain him." Gilligan should be a star in the Pa cific Coast l.eaaue. With Milwaukee last season his record was loss than .60(1. but h was recognised as the champion low hit heaver of the cir cuit, and when turned over to Mlnne apolia by St. I,outa for the last two weeks he won his only two games with the Mlllrs without a struggle Gilligan Is one of the fastest men In the. country In goinK down to first base. In the American Association ho was timed at 3 3-5 seconds, which surpassed the mark set by Altizer. Gilligan is a loft-hand batter, a big. strapping, llpht hewrted fellow, who batted .250 In the American Association In 1911 without hitting a ball out of the diamond. And that's some fast stopping.

If one Is to believe the optimistic: reports of Tom Terrell, the Cleveland Leader's hasehal! expert. "Buddy" Ryan stands an excellent chance of be ing retained hy the leader of the Naps. Terrell says that the ex-Beaver Is hit ting like a flrt.000 beauty and is show ing1 good speed on the paths. Manaprer Harry Davis, accord in to Terrell.

In keeping with the policy of the major leagues, the Pacific Coast l.eafcue may have an "official" organ. This in formation was conveyed in a letter from from President Al Raum to "Bill" Petrain. one of the editors of the- "Pa cific Coast Sporting Review." a weekly publication Just started here. Baum com plimented Petrain on the class of the paper and said that he would ask the league directors to Indorse it. The "Sporting News," of St. tools, and the "SportiiiK Life." -of Philadelphia, are supported financially hy the majors, and the same plan probably will be in augurated by the Pacific Coast League. An Insight as to the expense of con ducting a. major league club Is given by Barney Prcyfuss, head of the Pitts burg; rirales, in rrply to the assertion of an Eastern writer that a club can be run for $ln.OH0 annually. Prcyfuss sas his salary list totals' $100,000 and that Incidental expenses eat up a like amount. The following is the way Carl Ross, of the San Francisco Post, has tho Coast League managers size up their respective siuads: "Ret tor than ever." Walter Mc Credie. Portland. "Kvery one a clump." Hap llogan. Vernon. t "They look like winners.'' Bud Sliarpe, Oakland. "One sweet ball team. "g Danny Loiiff. San Francisco. "Much stronger all around" Frank Dillon. Los Angeiesi. "We'll show the knockers." Patsy O'Kuurke, Sacramento . Pete Morse is one of the Taeoma players who think that the Tigers will Tirure prominently in the Northwest ern race tins year. Pete took occas ion recently to wield the hammer val iantly against Rill Fisher, the ex-Ta-conia first sacker. Fisher's hahit of going after all tosses with ono hand came In for a severe roasting. Don Cameron is expected to bolster that corner of the Tiger Infield. Arthur Devlin, "tie of the last mem bers of the old New York world's championship s'liiad. Is to bo relegated to the bench soon, according to reports from the Giant training camp. They are now using Devlin as utiljty player, his chief role promising to bo substi tute for First Sacker Merkle. "Steen works faster than any pitcher the Naps have had since Addle Joss." writes a Cleveland scribe of the ex Portland spit-ball artist. Seattle has a gigantic youth named Altman trying out for a regMilax berth, lie is no relation to "Dutch" Altman. the San Francisco infield recruit. Rill James and Ray Stevens. Seattle twirl ing "rookies." are also members of the giant club. I-rf-ster Mann, new Seattle outfielder, from Lincoln. Neb., Is an all-round ath lete, starring- at track and football as well as on the diamond. The Tictoria team has quit San Jose In favor of Santa Clara. The offer of the collego campus and shower baths, together with the chances for games with the collegians, caused President Wattelet and Manager Nordyke to switch the scene of tralnins. Manager Dooin. of the Phillies, pre dicts that Cravath. ex-Los Angeles out fielder, will he one of the National League sensations this season.

Peckinpnugh grot two hits In as many times at bat the other day in a game tho Nap Yannigans played against the Regulars. Nine members of the Naps will be re leased before tlie team returns to Cleve land frtmi the training trip. Will any Portland players be in the ax-wieldins episode? Hans Wasrner has been appointed captain of the PHtsburg Pirates. Hans is now makin pennnant-winning pre dictions. Hughey Fullerton speaks as follows ancnt ring Budie: "Pius; Budie is a fixture in center. He came advertised as a great hitter, ana ne cannot mi much. He changed his style last year and couldn't hit as well afterward as he could before. When he hits them lie breaks fences. I think he can hit better than he did. I noticed last sea son that he hit third strikes well; that is. he tightened up after two strikes were called and he made more base hits off ,third-strike balls than off the first two at which he swung. He de veloped into a fine fielder and he can throw. He is fast enough in the field, but wretchedly slow going at first." Bonner and Houck, Spokane heavers with the Athletics, and Geipe, ex-Ver-non slabster. figured in a game at San Antonio the other day. Geipe and Houck workel for San Antonio, with Bonner on the mound for the world's champions. Although Maggart, ex -Oaklander, figured in one of the long est drives ever seen on the grounds, the Texans won. " -Ruck' Weaver trains his voice as well ns his muscles when he is in a same." writes Sam Weller. of the Chi cago Tribune, "lie can pour out lan guage from the first to the ninth Inn ins without a stop."

This distinction is claimed for him by his companions in-a hiking race from Al bany to Corvallis distance 13 miles, time 3 hours and 50 minutes. Taft. who weighs 319 pounds on the official scales at O. A.

When the Corvallis delegation ar rived at Albany on the return trio they were too late for the Corvallis train, so it was a case of walk the. 13 miles or miss the classes the following morning.

"Taft" pulled out of the Albany station, head ed westward, and when classes were called "Bill'' was at his post, appearing loss, depressed than some of his seven companions.
