At I .os Angeles 0, Salt Lake 2. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. With slickers and sou'westers out of the picture.' the ball athletes finally got in a game at Coast League Park yes terday. It might better have rained for all the good that accumulated to the Portland percentage statistics, for the Beavers receipted for a good sound trouncing by San Francisco. Sr-ore. 7-1. Jerry Downs, with a home run count ing three scores, helped bring woe to Southpaw Harry Kelly and his cohorts, hut Jeremiah's Ii.ster fiery though it he was somewhat dimmed and put into the eclipse, by a large and handsome light-hand fwirler named Erickson, late of Henry Ford's town, Detroit. Erickson made his local debut as a Peal pitcher. He looks like Jack Ness nml pitched like Ness used to bat. Not content with holding the Beavers to three hits that were as elusive as the 3 eutschland, Erickson whiffed 10 of the boys' in the nine innings. 10 Beavers Strike Out. Ten strikeouts is believed to be the local record for the year of the big flood. . Vaughn's walk in the first inning and a two-bagger into left center field by Kogers, sending him homeward, fur ' nished the Beavers with their sole op portunity to rejoice during the warm and balmy afternoon, Ex-Captain Brown did other things than walk during the early stages of the matinee. In the second Inning, when Southpaw Kelly began to wobble a bit, Vaughn helped push his veloci pede into the ditch by pulling a wide chuck to first base and letting a fly ball back of third get away from him. These two miscues, together with a walk, singles by Brooks and Autrey and Bodie's double to right scored four runs for San Francisco in the second. Svhallcr Cuts Off Run. Schaller's nifty throw home cheated Southworth out of a run in the fifth, but outside of this incipient rally there ivas little excitement on either side un til the ninth inning. Kelly then had another nightmare inning. A walk and a single through the infield put two men on the paths, and Downs made the walloping good by whacking a ball into the left field bleachers for a home run, scoring three runs. Bill Speas and Vaughn were. responsi ble for a couple of rather spectacular fielding plays. A double-header is scheduled for this afternoon commencing at 1:30 o'clock. Charley Baum, the old reliable war horse, likely will twirl the first for the Seals and either of the southpaws. Brown and Oldham, the other. Mc Credie has a full stable to pick from. Middles from the New Orleans were sprinkled in among the 2500 ladies' day fans that watched the homecoming en gagement yesterday.

MATT WELLS, the former English lightweight champion, from whom Freddie Welsh acquired the title, pansed into the pugilistic discard the other night, when Charley White, of Chicago, beat him so decisively in four rounds as to indicate his inability to fight now in anything like his old form. White's victory came at the right time. He needed something of that kind to help boost his stock, for he was beginning' to run a bad third to Johnny , Dundee and Benny Leonard. Freddie Welsh's estimate of White is very low. The tottering champion looks upon him as an easy mark. Jimmy Dime predicts that Babe Picato will create quite a stir among the Australian lightweights. A few years ago Frank Picato, a middle weight, brother of Babe, went to Aus tralia and did more than good. Billy De Foe, the St. Paul feather weight, is now in New York City, and bis manager, James Branick, is after a match with Frankie Fleming, the Canadian champion, . who recently whipped Eddie Wallace. v m Spike Kelly, Chicago welterweight, through his manager. Doc Krone, has accepted Snowy Baker's terms for five fights in Australia. Kelly will leave for the Antipodes some time during the latter part of August. Jimmy Mc Govern may accompany him. Jack Johnson and his wife are in Spain, with nothing but his wife's dia monds between them and starvation, it is said. Johnson staged one fight between himself and another negro at Barcelona, for which he obtained 91000. This did not last long and he has told friends that unless he can start a boxing school it will be tough sled-dins'- Freddie Welsh has been barred from boxing in Minnesota as the result of his refusal to go on with Charley White at Minneapolis a few weeks ago. Commissioner Bob Sleberlich says that the Briton will never box in that state as long as he is in po jver. Frank Moran will leave New York for the West in a few weeks. He will meet Carl Morris at Tulsa, Ok la., on Labor day. Fred Fulton is taking a rest. It has been reported that he is selling soda water at a Summer resort in Minne sota. The t-nly man he wants to figrht at present is Jess Willard. AYALSII EMULATES HEIIfLAXN White Sox Pitcher Rescues Two Girls Erom Drowning. CHICAGO. July 28. Ed Walsh, of the Chicago White Sox, last night turned lifesaver and rescued two drowning girls from the lake. Afterward he de clined to talk about hi3 act, and said he didn't even know the names of the girls. The rescue took place at a. hotel beach, where. Walsh had. just dived from a raft, which some one a moment later overturned, throwing ita occu pants into the water. Walsh heard the appeals for help from the girls and brought them safely to shore. Savage Estate $770,000 MINNEAPOLIS. July 28. A petition filed in Probate Court today asking that Erie B. Savage, eldest son, be appointed special administrator, shows that the late Mr. W.

The veteran came to the Oaks with that agreement, but it is probable that Otis will remain in the Coast League for the balance of his career unless he is forced to step out of it into retirement or to a league of lower classification. It's almost a cinch. nowever, mat speea Martin, of the Oaks, will get a trial in the majors next Spring. ... Slim Love, one of the tallest left handers in the business, is showing well with the Tanks. Love pitched great ' ball for Los Angeles last year, but has been held in reserve ever since he reported to the Yanks this Spring. tie has a tremendous windup. great speed, "a sweeping curve and good con, trol. ... Harry TVolverton has signed up' a young outfielder named Tonkin, who comes from Pittsburg. This isn't the Pittsburg of the National League, but Pittsburg of Contra Costa County. CaL Tonkin has been playing great ball in the bushes and has been recommend ed highly to Sir Harry, who win give him a trial this Fall. -... The purchase oT an interest in the Oakland Club by Del Howard brings more financial strength to the Coast League. Not only is Del well fixed, but Iris-father-in-law, H. C. Suttle, is a multi-millionaire. Mr. Suttle. who was formerly a member of the Chicago Board of Trade, is an enthusiastic fan. He now has extensive property inter ests in Southern California. It is re ported that he may be back of Howard In the purchasing into the Oaks. ... Rowdy Elliott surely took his dis missal philosophically, and had nothing but good words about former Presi dent Leavitt and Secretary Cook, who. - 4 I ' ' ' ' . I r I ? I ' V 1 I 1 " r-J ;v . .

Rader was rather late in joining the Western Leaguers, but he stayed over in Los Angeles to have his arm treated. . .' Callahan, who went to "Vernon in the Rader deal, looks good in practice for the Tigers. Art Griggs has been sus pended by Patterson, as he is being troubled by an injured foot. ... San Francisco is easily the most dif ficult club in the Pacific Coast League to figure, dope out or otherwise get a line on. Just when Its members ap pear to be firmly gripped by Joe Slump they come on with a rush and win back the winning affections of their supporters. ... The Vernon-San Francisco series of last week was a muddled up affair. With the Seal pitchers apparently helpless to check the onward march of the slugging hosts from Vernon. Wolverton's sluggers rallied just in time to offset the Tiger attack and stowed away four games out of seven. ... The Seals have nicknamed Eric Erickson, Jack, because of his resem blance to Jack Hess, the former Oak land first sacker. who is now burning things up for the Chicago White Sox. The new Seal slabster boasts a nose that's even bigger than the one which adorns Ness' face. The men are well matched in height and weight. MUSIC DURING PLAY TABOO Bands Can Play Only Between In nings, Says Ban Johnson. CHICAGO. July 28. Bands must cease playing in American League ball parks while games are in progress, accord ing to a ruling made today- by Presi dent Johnson. His decielon was the re sult of a protest made by the Cleve land club because Umpire O'Loughlin stopped a band tn the Indians Park. "People come to ball games to see baseball." said Mr. Johnson. "Music is all right between innings, but not while the game is on. I shall instruct all umpires to follow O'Loughlin's ex ample." Parrott's Triple Play Is Held Not Unassisted. Third Pntoot. Made by Cateher, De clare. Edgar Coanca 1. 1)1. cn.slnK Unusual Baseball Feat. EDGAR E. COURSEN. of 658 Love Joy street, explains in a letter to the sporting editor that the play which R. M. M'Kern says Jlggs Parrott made In 1900 or 1901. and about which Mr. M'Kern wrote to The Oregonian, and whose letter was published yesterday morning, was not an unassisted triple play. Read Mr. Coursen's letter for your self: "Jiggs Parrott's celebrated triple play was not unassisted. Parrott was playing third with men on second and third. The batter knocked a line drive which Parrott caught. Parrott then touched the man who was coming from second as he was trying to return to his base. The third putout was made bv the catcher at home plate, to whom Parrott threw the ball. Parrott could have made an unassisted triple play by touching third, but for some rea son he failed to take advantage of his chance. "There was a slight dispute regarding the first putout. turn it was claimed that Parrott dropped the ball after mak ing the catch, but the umpire decided that the ball had been held long enough to entitle Parrot to the putout."

You boost the Yankees and the Red Sox and the White Sox. the Braves arm the Phillies, when this Brooklyn club can play more baseball in one inning than most of them play in an entire game?" We were under the hazy impression that we had fairly bubbled with boosts for the Impetuous Robins. The stand ing of the clubs is boost enough, but. In- case we have been lacking, we hasten to say that just now he can think of no more thrilling spectacle than Colonel C. H. Ebbets as the storm center of a world series. And the Colo nel has had a wonderful chance to land with both feet in the center of the big October smear. For three months the Colonel's team has been playing the best ball in the National League. And Just at present we can see no reason why it shouhi keep plugging along under the Inspir ing salve of Wilbert Robinson, who is a host and. a boost unto himself. Not Quite So Soft. Those who figured that owning a ball club was a sort occupation or that pennant could be purchased for so much cash might gaze upon the case of the Yanks. Messrs. Huston and Ruppert spent over 130,000 for high-class talent. Bill Donovan handled this talent In an ad mirable way. And. then, Just as . the club was moving along nicely out in front, one star after another is blown apart by serious accidents. There is no way to beat back a fate of this type. A good secondary defense might easily replace two. or even three, star regu lars, but when four or five are ehot down there is no way to replenish the larder up to normal capacity. Prepar edness Is a wonderful institution. But a tidal wave of trouble is another matter. Even Withont Speaker. It was around the early section of July last year that the Red Sot finally swung into their stride and began to move In the general direction that leads to the front. Minus Speaker, few believed that Carrigan could ever start his club In the same direction again, but late re sults show that Boston Is now the most feared club In the circuit. Any machine that has Ruth. Shore. Leonard. Poster and Mays to fire at the opposition in order doesn't require any great attack. The Red Sox have been able to get enough runs to win. and evidently the clubs morale has re formed since the Speaker sale. If Lan nin can sell a star player for 150.000 ami get Into the world series besides. his place as a financier Is fixed for good. Famous Rays. Caldwell. I'isher. Chapman.

Judge Morrow and District Attorney Evans Differ Over Wholesale DellTery of Alcohol. No time is being lost in having the constitutionality of the Oregon dry law. brought into question by the decision of Circuit Judge Morrow last week, made an issue before the Supreme Court of Oregon. Notice of appeal from the decision of the Multnomah County Circuit Judge was filed with County Clerk Coffey by A. C. Spencer. W. W. Cotton and Blaine Hallock. attorneys for the San Fran cisco & Portland Steamship Company, yesterday. The judgment of Judge Morrow awarded Wadhams & Co. pos session of two barrels of Cologne spirits of ethyl alcohol, being held by the steamship company on the ground that its delivery would be & violation of the dry law. Judge Morrow did not rule on wheth er the delivery would be a violation of the prohibition law, but took occasiou to declare the law unconstitutional in prohibiting the receipt of alcohol from outside the state when the possession of the same was not illegal. The same principle Is taken to apply to the affi davit system In effect in the receipt of liquor for personal use from ou-side the state. If the possession is not illegal, why is the receipt of any quantity illegal? Is the question raised by this decision. The Webb-Kenyon bill is held by Judge Morrow not to apply t) the de livery of alcohol when its ultimate use by the recipient is not in violation of the state law. District Attorney Evr ans, who has been invited by tne ap pellant to represent . the state in tne case, holds that the Webb-fclenyon act does apply when the manner of receipt is in contravention of state law, as in the present case.
