The Angels took the first game of the series from the Beavers today in a hard-nlaved game. 3 to 0. The game was closer than the score shows, and. but for me weaKness. m Steiger in the box in the seventh, the visitors would have had a chance to win In spite of the single score against them. The rally of the Angels in the sev enth had a patent effect on the Port land players when they came to bat in the next inning, an they were quickly retired In spite of Chadbourne's double. After Doane had reached third Jn the ninth the Beavers went out one, two, thTee. Beann Play Sklplesaj Ball. The Beavers played an errorless game, and Lober's dropping of Doane's fly in the ninth was the only error made by the Angels with Doane on third, no one out and everyone on the local team but Slagle acting as- nerv ous as a beau Interviewing his intend ed's father; Bancroft and Kapps fanned and Fisher lined out to Berger. Slagle pitched a consistently . good game and kept the hits well scattered, allowing but five all told. Steiger, on the other hand, was touched up for nine, and they came largely when they were needed. - - ... Cap Dillon retired from the game in " the sixth, owing to- a lame arm, and Moore went into bat for him that in ning, finishing the game on the initial sack. Angela Biaca Hits. Berger secured three singles. In the first inning he scored on a single and Heitmuller's double. In the seventh Lober fanned and Brooks walked. Slagle sacrificed and Brooks romped home when Howard hit the ball over the left-field fence. The ball struck a wire and bounced back into the field, the umpire allowing Howard two bases. Howard scored when Berger singled ' to- center, but the. latter, in trying to stretch the hit into a double, was out at second. Score: . Los Angeles Portland Ab.K.Po.A.E I - Ab.H Po.A E.

BUGS MAY GET JACKSON San Francisco Sends Raftery Back to Wllkesbarre Marquard Wins His Seventeenth Consecutive Game of Year. BT ROSCOB FAWCETT. A second San Francisco earthquake is now in progress and as a result of the laudable efforts of Reidy . in his shaking off of the Jinx hovering over the Seals, Portland can today boast of a new addition to the Beaver pitch-inn- staff our old friend Harry Suter. President McCredle received word of Manager McCredie's 16th dip into the twirling pool yesterday and Secre tary McCredie lortnwitn inscriDea se on the roster, the sign for "some south naw" or maybe he meant "same story" as his mind recalled Walt's efforts to land a winning southpaw this season. Along with the sale of Suter to Portland the Seals announced the dis posal of Tom Raftery, the old Beaver outflelder. back to Wilkesbarre of the vw York State League. Raftery ata not hit well enough to satisfy the farts. If Suter can pitch up to 1910 or even 111 form he couw prove a suc cessful cog to McCredie's-club, for Mac .,.lv lnrka a reliable nitcher or two. In 1910 Suter won It and lost 14 ior the Seals, about on a par witn tne club's record: last season he finished with 22 wins and 22 losses or consid erable over the Seals' winning per. rnfff, He was also the strikeout king of tho league, whiffing 339 batsmen, whereas his nearest competitor. Miller of the Seals, had 238 and Tom Seaton, of Portland, third best, 21.,Suter held out on the Seals this Spring but came to terms a month ago. He has done nothing for wing. however, for short ly after reaching California he was called East by his mother's illness. Here is -a list of the pitchers Mc Credie has corraled this year: Koestner. Klawltter. Henderson, Hark ness. Lamline, Higginbotham. Steiger, Gregg, Oilligan. Temple, Veasey, Girot, Hlrsch, Byrd, Osborne ana outer. . - . rr-i l- t nnt altna-Ather satis fled with Brooks, the southpaw who supplanted Jack Barry at the initial station. Is Indicated by a San Fran cisco dispatch that Dugdale Is angling for First Baseman Jackson, of the Seals. Jackson's job Is to be handed over to Del Howard as sooii as the St. Paul man can reach the Coast. anrwiara tn . field hlS posi tion in excellent style but is hitting like a blind man-. Jackson, on the other hand, has a clouting average of .273 to date and should be a wondor- ful brace to the Seattle mneio. Jackson, also a southpaw, is one of Danny Long's new crop of Terse i......

And that was a million 'years ago" when Marquard lost a game. ...' "Tealey Raymond Is proving an Ideal manager," declared D. E. Dugdale, owner of the Seattle baseball club, yes terday, despite Seattle's two reverses this week. " His knowledge or baseball, to gether with his splendid ability to handle the men Is largely responsible for the record of 11 games won in 14 nlaved in the two weeks before we came to Portland," continued the portly owner of the famed "cigar box" Se attle baseball Dark. "Ravmond has not made a baa move this season, and his success makes me Inclined to knock on wood every time I think of it ana fear mat nts managerial play is over his head. The way he has handled the twirlers, and Imbued confidence in the new players. Is what is making the club a factor in the Northwestern League race. This is going to be a great series. and while we hope to take five of the eight games, I figure an even break will be good for us now; James should win tomorrow. In my 16 years on the Coast I have never seen anybody like him. I think he will be a second Mathewson." . - a Vean Gregg attributes his "come hack" after the fearful Athletics' mas sacre a fortnight ago, to Bonesetter Reese, . of Youngstown, .

He failed to take a throw from Graney from the outfield, following Gandll's single, and the ball rolled to the bench, after which three runs resulted. Peck was forthwith benched.

Eight straight is the Colt boast. It was a local cleanup all the way. Barrenkamp, who was on the mound for . thev. Potlatch now pronounced "Notmuch" Bugs, was hit freely from the start. Consequently Portland led up to the ninth inning S to 1. Then Bloomfield developed a streak of .wlld ness, walked two, hit another and al lowed Moras to Blap a slashing single to centerfield, scoring two. But, with two on bases. Whaling hit Into a dou ble play and ended the excitement. The game was not an especially su perlative exhibition of pastlming. Strait let Williams' first drive In the Initial inning get away from him and helped the run getting; Speas followed suit on Moran's hit in the last frame, while Moore had a hard time locating the bases. The finish was Just ex citing enough, though, to send every body home tingling. - Williams Shines, Alao . Outside of Bloomfield Manager Wil liams was the luminary of the Colt attack and defense. The popular per oxide leader banged out three singles, all within a radius of five feet of the third bag, and scored three of the Portland tallies. A triple : by Speas also helped the run getting. Defen slvely Williams also shone, ' picking wild pegs out of the rust at frequent intervals. Three of the 10 hits secured off Bar renkamp came bunched in. the first in ning and netted the Colts two scores. Speas and Fries both beat out Infield taps and scored' on Williams' single and Strait's Jugglery. Portland added one In the second on a poke by Coltrln, a ' fielder's choice and- Speas'- triple to- deep left: another in the fourth on a walk, uioomnetas hit to Tight and an infield grounder, and the fifth and final score In the fifth.
