Manager Cliff Blankenship, of the
Bait Lake Bees, is confident that his
club will be up in the running within
a few weeks. Boss Clifford can't see
how two of his players can be kept
out of the majors next Spring and
Fays that the only thing his team needs
Ss one more pitcher.
Blank and his crew arrived In Port
land yesterday, but no game was played
because of wet grounds. This will
Jirobably mean double-headers Saturday
Hnd Sunday, although Judge W. W.
IcCredie could not be reached yester
day to determine whether or not the
second double bill will be staged this
week or when the Saints appear here
Cor the last time the week of August 22.
"Bunny" Brief, first baseman, and
Jaul Fittery, left-handed pitcher, are
the pastimers whom Blank thinks will
So up.
"I don't see how these two fellows
can be kept out of the big show another
year," said the Bee skipper at the Sew
ard Hotel last night. "Brief is one
of the greatest hitters in the game to
day, knows baseball and has ah excel
lent disposition. He hits any kind of
pitching and can travel on the paths.
Fittery at Top Form.
"Fittery has more stuff today than
Trffty' 'Williams had at any time last
year. Williams is still getting oysters
in his soup under the bipr tent. Both
are southpaws, and if Williams can
etick in the big league, then Fittery
can. too.
"The only fault is that both Brief
and Fittery have already had trials in
the majors. This handicaps a ball
player, for although he may still be a
youngster, comparatively speaking,
major league clubs get it in their crops
that there must be something lacking,
and usually take a player whose record
Is not quite as good, but who has the
earmarks of a big leaguer. Fittery is
only 27 years old."
Southpaw Paul Fittery came to the
Bees from the Cincinnati Reds about
two months after the season started in
1915. He won 22 and lost 17 games
in the Coast League last season, and at
the close of the campaign was almost
tinbeatable. So far this season he has
won 10 and lost eiirht games. The Salt
Lakers have been practically out of
the running since this season started,
and Fittery has been worked in more
Karnes than any other Coast League
iwiner.
Brief Record Is Good.
After having a tryout with the Chi
cago White Sox in the Spring of 1915.
Oiunny liner was secured by Salt Lak
along about the same time that Fittery
came West. He rescued the club and
put it in the running by his great hit
ting. Brief succeeded Tommy Tennant.
Bunny" hit for an average of .363
jor a marK or .347 so far this year.
He is a great long-distance hitter and
at present is leading the famous Brief-CIuisto-Bodie
trio in the home-run race
with 12 circuit clouts.
"Give me one more twirler and I'll
Bive them all a merry chase," says the
pleasant Salt Lake leader. "No, 1
liaven t anyone in mind, for good
pitchers are mighty scarce in the
majors and the managers in the East
are hanging on to most any kind of
talent.
Bees Dont Count on Love.
When asked if there was a chance
f Salt Lake's landing Slim Love from
the New York Yankees. Blankenshlo
said that he did not think that the
former Angel would ever get out of
the American League. According to
Jilank, Love is being used as a relief
pithcer and is getting awav with it.
3t Love does return to the Coast, Los
.Angeles has the first right to him and
Manager Frank Chance, of the1 South
erners, would welcome a twirler of
the Love caliber right now.
Blankenship has his eyes open and
Xnay announce the name of a new
moundman within a few days.
Fittery, Piercey, Hughes. Hall, Kla
fitter and Dougan are the Salt Lak
pitchers just at present. All the mem
bers of the club are in great shape
with the exception of Southpaw Dou-
Kan. who has a wrenched side. He will
be O. K- within a. week. Pitcher K.el
logg was released Just before the team
Jett for Portland.
Hall or Hughes for the visitors is
scheduled to work against Hagerman
or Sothoron this afternoon.
ANGELS BEAT OAKS IX 12TH
Seven Stolen Bases Off F. Elliott and
Six Errors Play Big Part.
SAX FRANCISCO. June 20. Jack
Tvyan's two-base hit in the twelfth
jnnic-r won th game for Los Angeles
today, tne Angels beating the Oaks,
to 6. The Oaks hit well, but their
fielding was loose and F. Elliott's
catching is best Indicated by the fact
that the Angels were credited with
eeven stolen bases. Score:

SEALS HAVE EARLY PRACTICE
Wolverton Far From Satisfied AVlth
Performance of His Men.
LOS ANGELES. Cal.. June 20. (Spe
cial.) Harry Wolverton put his Seals
througn a stiff workout this morning
at Washington Park. Every member
of the squad with the exception of
crippled Bill Stee l went through the
sesEin.i.
The Seal boss Is by no means sat
isfied with the work of his men of
late, and believes morning practice
regularly may get them into a win
ning stride. If they do not show im
provement he will order these forenoon
drills frequently.
The San Francisco leader announced
today that Johnny Couch will face the
home-coming Tigers in the first game
of the series here tomorrow.
Wolverton reported today that Bill
Steen's injured ankle is showing little
improvement. There is Mttle chance
of Steen pitching a game before next
week.
EVENT IS DRAW
MANY THINK BROXSOX ENTITLED
TO DECISION OVER. JOHNSON.
Sims Knocks; Out AI Sommera Burns
Is Clumsy, but lie Gains Bout
From Joe Bonds.
'Muff" Bronson and Lee Johnson
fought a six-round draw as the main
event at the Rose City Athletic Club
smoker last night. Bronson took five
out of six rounds from his colored op
ponent. and many thought he was
entitled to a well-earned decision.
Only four clean blows were struck
in the first round. After the opener
the boys livened up. Johnson could not
hit Bronson with a shotgun. His
judging of distance was poor, and his
occasional spurts were ineffectual. The
local boy used a good left-hand jab
effectively, mixing it with a right cross
frequently. Both weighed around 125
pounds. Mike H: Butler was the ref
eree.
Lowe "Jack" Sims. 170-pounder. hit
Al Sommera flush on the jaw with a
right-hand punch in the sixth round of
their affair and scored a technical
knockout. Referee Ed Tracey got ex
cited and forgot to give a decision.
This go was even up until the time of
the sleep-producer. Sommers weighed
15b pounds.
In the third bout, Joe Bonds, the
crack Tacoma heavywheight, was
matched against Farmer Burns. Bonds
evidently took the affair as a joke,
for it was apparent that he was loaf
ing. Bun s was so awkward that he was
funny. H-j weighed 175 pounds against
about 200 lor the Tacoman. Bonds
punched Burns around for five rounds,
but his comical adversary charged in
the sixth ineffectually, and to the sur
prise of all Tracey gaye Burns the
verdict.
Tad Derbyshire stopped Young
Schwartz in two rounds and Silent
Rexter gave Ben Gillen all he wanted
in four cantos. The former pair are
middleweights and the latter duo weigh
130 pounds.
Raloh Gruman, the Portland light
weight, last night received a telegram
from a San Francisco promoter advis
ing him to stay over a day or so.
Gruman had already bought his tick
et for New York where he has been
planning to go for a series of bouts
when he received the telegram from
San Francisco last night. He decided
then to reopen negotiations with the
South, but declared that the onlv man
he would box there would be Willie
Ritchie and that any attempt to switch
him to a minor affair would be ignored

Stork Ptys Visit to Billy

Since Another Ballplayer Was Left

MANAGER WALTER M'CREDIE is

the best part of it Is that it won't
be necessary to release anyone to

JAPANESE BOYS Villi
Visiting Tennis Players Put Up
Strong Game.
GOSS AND WAKEMAN LOSE
Portland Experts Fall to Keep Pace
on Wet Courts With Orientals,
Vlio Are on AVny to PJay
in California Tourneys.
Although yesterday was far from be
ing tennis weather, G. Kumagae and
H. Mikami. the Japanese tennis cham
pions of the Orient, who are on their
way to California tournaments, spent
an hour and a half on the -.ourts of
the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club
playing singles against two of Port
land's best.
Kumagae, who is billed as the singles
champion, matched his skill against
that of Walter A. Goss. champion of
the annual Spring handicap tourneys
of both the Irvington Club and the
Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, and
the Japanese racquet wielder took two
straight sets. 6-2. 6-4. While this was
going on "Gas" Wakeman was having
his hands full trying to keep pace with
H. Mikami on another court.
Mikami trimmed the Portlander 6-2
the first set and came back with a 6-0
victory In the second set. The contests
had been planned for the Irvington Club
courts, but the clays were in no shape
to be used and it was necessary to mop
and sweep up two of the Winged "M"
pavements before play could be at
tempted. The tennis balls soon became water
soaked and It was with difficulty that
any of the players managed the vari
ous strokes. Despite the rain, several
tennis enthusiasts were on . hand to
witness the phiy yesterday afternoon.
"We have been treated mighty royal
since we arrived in this country," said
Mikami, between games. "Although we
ave not had the best of weather we
are trying to keep in condition for a
siege in California. It is our plan to
go East as soon as the California ten
nis tournaments have been completed.
The game put up by you Northerners
s simply remarkable when it in taken
nto consideration that you can t prac
tice and play as we or other players
of sunny climates are in the habit of
doing."
The two Japanese boys left yester
day afternoon immediately after the
games with Goss and Wakeman. Ku
magae is one of the world's few good
tennis players who plays with eye
glasses. For all that it did not seem
to cause him any worry when he was
lobbing them over.

Coast League Gossip
rpiHERE is a chance for some good
JL statistician to render a good turn
to Coast League magnates. There are
five of the latter who would like to
know just what a team like the Oaks,
for instance, costs a league during the
progress of a seven months' season.
Cliff Blankenship's Bees played Oak
land last week and received little, if
any, more than their hotel bill.
m
Every time the Oaks put up a sorry
i will prove

exhibition like they did last Wednes-
r when Salt Lake beat HiKcin-
botham, 13 to 1. a goodly number of
cash customers are driven away dis
gusted. They not only stay away from
the games in which Oakland partici
pates, but they are through with the
sport for some time.
.
Although Joe Berger. of the Oaks.
who once was regarded as a crack in-
flelder. cracks them often in the
pinches, he boots 'em often, and just
when the boots are less relished by, his
team.
Frank Dillon's faith in younr Pitch
er Horstman seems to have been justi
fied at last. Under Frank Chance the
youngster has been pitching great ball.
ana last week against the Seals ha
pitched one of the best games of the
season. Only one hit was made off his
delivery. Only two men reached sec
ond. With Buck Weaver. Zeb Terry. Jack
Ness and Williams on Its roster, the
w hite Sox have a rather cosmopolitan
Coast League lineup. Williams was
once a Bee; Weaver went up from the
Seals; Ness from the Oaks and Terry
from Los Angeles. Birdy Lynn, last
year with Salt Lake, is also with Co-
miskey s crew.
Captain Ncal. formerly connected .
with the Phillies, has been appointed
a member of the Pittsburg club's scout
ing staff. He starts his duties at
once. Although Neal discovered many
good players, the finding of Dave Ban
croft made him the peer of all "ivory
hunters. '
Two former managers of the Tankeei
are having a battle in the Coast League.
They are Harry Wolverton and Frank
Chance. Wolverton is the manager of
the San Francisco club and chance is
the leader of the Angels. Their teams
are having a fight for the leadership
of the league. Both are of the aggres
sive type and there should be tone
lively times in this old circuit If the
battle should come down to a close
fight between these two teams.
Howard Ehmke, . formerly with Los
Angeles, is pitching fine ball in the
New York State League. He is on the
same team with Owen Quinn, whom
Louie Guisto beat out of a job here.
Oscar Horstman, the young Angel
pitcher, who was about to be released
when he suddenly obtained control of
his fast ball, is being sought by the
St- Louis Cardinals.
Manager Rowdy Elliott of the Oaks
has spiked the rumor that he would
be ousted by declaring he has an iron
clad contract with the club that can
not be broken for a year at least.
m
George Claxton. the Indian pitcher
who was signed by Elliott, has been
handed his release. According to
Rowdy, the heaver had nothing on the
ball and he couldn't afford to bother
with him.
Oscar Horstman has taken the place
of Speed Martin as the pitching sensa
tion of the leagne. The Angel young
ster Is the kind of a twirler who
thrives on hard work and gets better
with each performance.
Johnny Bassler Is looked upon by
many as one of the best backstops in
the league. The young Los Angeles
receiver is taking on weight every day
and gaining strength. Bassler is hit
ting the ball hard and his throwing to
the bases is sensational.
Oddfellows Offer to Serve.
HELENA, Mont.. June 20. The serv
ice of 10 companies of 40 men each
from the uniformed rank of the Odd

Phil Greenan. of the

the Guardsmen or elsewhere if needed.
