Schedule Week August 12-18. -Los Angeles at Portland. Sacramento at fan Francisco. Oakland at Vernon. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1L (Spe cial.) For the first time this year the Seals have won a Sunday double header. For the fifth time since 1912 baseball opened, they have captured a series. If that is not going some for one of the near tailenders, you are go ing to be hard to satisfy. The series against the Beavers was clinched -when Elmer Koestner was pounded out of the game in the fourth Inning and the game won bands down, 8 to 1, with Miller pitching in good form. The double-header belonged to the Ban Franciscans when they took the afternoon session. 1 to 0, Frank Miller, who succeeded the crippled Clarence Henley, pitching himself out of so many tight holes that It made things mighty interesting. Portland did not have a look-in. so far as the morning affair was con cerned, and the break of the luck was all against them in the second session of the day. Doable Flay Peculiar. Outside of the fact that San Fran cisco won five out of the seven played this week, there were other things that counted. Henley suffered a serious In Jury when one of his fingers was hurt as he stopped Rodgers' line drive in the first inning. The other matter of note was the most peculiar double play that Coast League fans have ever witnessed. A double in which the right fielder, the first baseman and the of the ordinary. This double made its appearance today, Mundorff throwing the batsman out at first on a hit to right and Del Howard completing the double play by relaying to the plate to catch the runner, who had been on second when the action commenced. Both sides missed many chances to score in the afternoon. Time and again he Beavers had their runners on the ' feses, but missed fire and the same iing goes for the Seals, who regis tered seven hits in four innings, but could not make an impression on the scoreboard. The one run that did the business was a combination of a walk, a steal and a two-bagger, and proved Just tnough to win the game, although there were times when Miller's chances looked none too bright. Elmer Feara Jinx. For the fourth time in two weeks Elmer Koestner, who thinks there is a llnx hanging over him at Recreation Park, San Francisco, and has solicited the Job of heaving for the Oregonians at the Oakland grounds, was defeated. Koestner's" delivery this morning was so easy to solve that he was chased from the game in the fourth inning, after seven runs had been scored. The Beavers, blanked for five in nings, showed a ' tendency to slam Charlie Fanning in the sixth and made one run." which left them 8 to 1 in the rear. All the life was taken out of the game in the first inning. Five hits, one of which was a double, netted three runs off Koestner. There were two more tallies in the third, and when MundorfTs three-bagger had scored another duet in the fourth, it was the tall timber for Elmer. No man had been retired at the time of the re moval, so Harkness is not to blame if another man slid by to the plate In safety before he was thoroughly in command of the situation. After that inning he blanked the Seals most con sistently. First Game.

By annexing tooth games of a. double header from Tacoma yesterday the Portland Northwesterners made It six straight victories and duplicated the record established when the Tigers last appeared here. The scores were Identi cal for both games, 7 to 4, and, oddly enough, the locals came, from behind on both occasions. Ward McDowell, the hard-hitting sec ond Backer, was the particular lumi nary of the day. McDowell obtained six hits In eight times at bat four of the drives being two-baggers and it was his hits, in both games that gave the Colts victory. The wonderful pitching of Pat Cal lahan, southpaw obtained by Portland from Centralia, also featured the day. The youngster pitched shutout ball after relieving Bloomfield in the sec ond Inning of the second game, struck out seven men ana displayed remark able coolness under fire. When he went in the score stood 3 to 1 for Ta coma. with one man on the bags. Hunt Weakens in Seventh. Ben Hunt, the "near" Chicago flinger, essayed the mole for Tacoma In the opening setto and if Comlskey could have seen him work for six in nings he would have cajoled himself for that squelching wire to Scout Sul livan. But in the seventh, with the score 3 to 0 in his favor, big Ben blew up. He walked the first man, Eastley, and then five singles smote the atmos phere, tallying four runs. That settled the southpaw and Bel ford relieved him. Catcher Crittenden unbosomed a wild peg and let the fifth score filter through. McDowell was the man who brought in the tying run, but Mahoney, Fries and Speas also con tributed to' the hit column in the pinches. Eastley was touched up pretty regu larly, ten hits being chalked up, but he kept them well scattered. Lynch secured two. Million two and Holder man three. Callahan's Control Fine. In the second game Bloomfield was opposed by Krause, the recruit who formerly wore a uniform with Cne halis in the State League, and for a time it appeared as though the young ster would land on the roseate side. Bloomfield found the going extremely bumpy at the start. He walked the first man, McMullen, in the second In ning, allowed Holderman to go safe on a sacrifice, threw high to first and let one run in, and then allowed La Longe to single for two more. Callahan went In and four scattered bingles was all he was stung for in the eight innings. Mike Lynch se cured three of these, rounding out a very "fat day. with the bludgeon. Cal lahan had speed and several varieties of hooks and f ine ..control. Portland tallied one in the first on Jansen's poor throw, another in the second on singles by Mahoney and Cal lahan, and tied the score, 1 to 4, in the third on a single by Fries, a walk to Speas, McDowell's double to left and a passed ball. McDowell brought in the winning point by his second double In the fifth inning, following a single by Kibble. He also romped home in the eighth after doubling, Mahoney sending him across on his third safe swat. Harris retired in this inning after being hit by a pitched ball. Hausman finished the game and scored for Harris on a single by Callahan. Four thousand fans turned out.

The Blues, or first team of the ciud, oy virtue ui goal average, though beaten twice, carry off the cup with a total number of 2414 points to 21 by the Waverly Reds, and 20 V by the Boise Cavalry. When the First Cavalry took the field against the Vancouver Artillery, speculation was rife as to the score it could pile up. Anything in the region of a dozen would give it a fair chance, provided the game- between the two Portland teams was a low scoring one. Boise scored at once, and some of the wiseacres began to say "I told you so. They're going to take 20 off their mil itary friends." When, instead of adding to its score in the second, Boise was penalized for crossing by Chapman, and had only amassed a total of Hi points at the end of the third chukka, chances were almost nil. Even at 10 to 1 there would have been hardly any After the middle' interval, though Boise found its proper stride and piled up three goals in each of the next two chukkas and two in the last period, going so strong when the final whis tle blew that with another two periods, or with that form in the first two, It would have held too strong a lead In goal to have been beaten for the cup. As it was Boise totaled 10 to & by the Artillery, which did not score once, Its penalty being for a safety play. This score, added to the 9t the Cav alry had taken before, gave Boise 20i The Waverly Blues,' by reason chiefly of their 14 goals against the Artillery last Tuesday, already had 18 stowed away in their bag, and felt confident of beating their second team by enough to take the cup. Major Ross Stars. They had reckoned without Major Ross, however, who was In Irresistible form, except for a couple of periods, and to him the Blues owe their second defeat of the week. For some time, too, it looked as though they would not score. The Reds started off with a dash, securing two goals in sensational fashion in the first chukka, without a retaliation. Hall, however, who played a great game all through, reduced their lead in the next, and tied the score in the third, only to be penalized hi for dismounting on the field. Their next goal was greeted with cheers, for it was the one that beat Boise for the cup. The Reds looked like winners until the fifth period. Loose play, the ab sence of their captain with a broken stirrup leather, and a general slacken ing of pace, with a couple of penalties, brought them back a peg, and when the Blues, playing with great dash, put on a couple in the sixth, those who had put their money on the first team be gan to have hopes once more. It seemed, though, from the subse quent play, the Reds had been toying with them, for straight from the .throw in they took the ball down the field to score, and repeated the dose once again. The Blues could only retaliate once, a fine fast game ending in favor of the Reds by the score of 614 to 614. In the game between the two Army teams Rhinehart for Boise played his best game of the week. Chapman's riding was again a feature of the day, though he is too prone to "crossing." Haverkamp put in any amount of work, but, good as he was, scarcely shone as much as on Friday. For the Artillery Beatty caught the eye on many occa sions for good work, while Figley, who took the place of Lieutenant George, out of the match with a game leg, proved a good substitute. Slow Play Bothers Cavalry. Where the Cavalry lost Its oppor tunity was in the opening periods, es pecially the second. The faster the game the more it shines, and the slow ponies of the opponents seemed to put the Cavalry players off their usual tactics The most striking feature of the game between the rival Waverly teams, apart from the good form of Major Ross,' whose back-handers were the choice tid-bits of the day, was the Im M IS I SUIT Vv in the Store for - Auto Dust- "yT-!:7 era at Vi off f 1 "J"1 St M s D CAPTURE CUP at the - w, in your choice of every fancy TEIN-BLOCH Unusually big assortments for Stout and Tall men.
