The local batters pelted. Ken Penner every way and probably could have made more if they hadn't still been feel ing the effects of the Fourth. On the other hand, the Portland fence-busters were helpless before Walter Leverenz, who pitched a superb game. Portland's first run was made in the first on a hit batsman, a -sacrifice and out, a single and a sacrifice fly. Their other two were made in the seventh, after two were out on hits by .Penner and Hollocher, a costly underthrow by Crandall and a still more costly over throw by Ryan. Salt Lake stowed the game away in the third, when they made four runs on five hits. The chief factors in the Fcoring- were doubles In succession by Sheely, Ryan and Qulnlan, with a fin ishing single by CrandalL. All of Salt Lake's eight runs were earned, 18 hits telling the tale.

OREGON'S BEST AT VALLEJO Game Will Be to American Army AVhat Soccer Is to British and French Los Angeles Paper Praises Hollocher. Some great football teams are to be turned loose in the various United fetates military camps this com Ins- Fall. The problem of furnishing Uncle Samuel's soldiery with healthful di version has had the Army officers thinking deeply and It is now an as sured fact that football will be the prime athletic activity wherever large bodies of the troops are bivouacked. The Marine Corns at Vallelo coulrl get up a bear of a football aggrega tion nOW. FOUr or five of th wnn- derful players of last year's University ul oregon eleven are In training at the Mare Island rendezvous. Among tnem are Johnny Beckett. 200-nound captain and tackle: "Brick" Mitchell. end; Hollls Huntington, halfback; Elmer Hall, a former star linesman of Oregon, and one or two others. lis present bunch of men at the Presidio will be scattered before Fall, but a new outfit of more than 2500 men will occupy the Presidio quarters after August 27. If the percentage of college athletic stars of the first camp Is maintained in the second no college eleven on the Coast will have anything on the Presidio talent. football creates and develons the habit of obeying the Initiative of com mand when players are in immediate contact with the maximum of opposi tion. Any military man understands the value of this ty-pe of training. It is the very sort of subconscious train ing an army needs co-ordination be tween the mental and physical. rootDall will be to the American Army what soccer is to the French and urltish. The Los Angeles Times Is to the front with a neat boost for Shortstop Hollocher. of the Beavers only 'the Times calls him "Bill" and his name is "Charley." "Bill Just naturally glides around In front of the hot ones." says the Times. He gets his man with no apparent effort. His knack of being able to throw from any position Is a great time-saver. In Friday's game he Jug gled a grounder by Daley, recovered It and threw to first from his stooping position, and he got his man. Had he taken time to even partly straighten up he would have lost his man. In Wednesday's game Hollocher In troduced a new method of cutting off line drives. Mitchell sent a hot. screaming one into left field. Instead of springing straight up in his tracks. as is customary. Bill looked and then ran back before he leaped. This en abled him to pull It down with one hand. Never before did we see a short stop who had time to run back on a line drive." ' The appointment of Hugo Bezdek to the management of the Pittsburg Pirates ought to " boost Hollocher's chances for wearing a big league uni form next year. Bezdek came to Port land twice to look Holly over for the Pirates, and on both occasions the youngster looked very good. Several other major league clubs are after the kid. however, so It Is not certain by any means that Hollocher will be wirh the Pirates. Bezdek will have further oportunlty as boss of Pittsburg to pass Judg ment on Carson Bigbee, one of his University of Oregon proteges. Bezdek tried to get Carson to sign a Pitts burg contract when he was coaching him at Kugene. but along came Walter McCredie with a Portland contract ana 1300 down, and the kid spurned Bez- dek's offer. Hugo nursed quite "neeve" for a time, particularly so when the Pirates afterward turned around and nald Tacoma something like S2500 for Bigbee's release. Pittsburg really' should have had the hoy with no purchase nnce tag attacnea. Bigbee graduated to the big show last Fall and played sensational ball the. final few weeks. He has not been displaying much punch this year, how ever, and it may be tip to Hugo to teach him a little more about the offensive end of the game. Salt Lake is Indignant over the angle of the Brief matter. The Bees sold "Bunny" to Pittsburg on an option and the. Pirates, after using mm a wnne .old him to Louisville. Now the Bees either want the money or they want their home-run king hack. Papers v,..a heoT. filei with the National Com mission and some action is expected hefnre the war ends. Brief's case Is one of the most tin usual In baseball. He has been tried bjr the St. Louis Browns, the Chicago Sox. the Pirates and possibly several other clubs, and In the big leagues he hasn't been able to hit the legal In terest rate. Meantime he has been breaking the fences in the American Association and the Coast League, di. v, r. 1.AVA seen years of serv ice in the majors declare that Brief v.,-, ir particular weakness.

GOBB Oil BAT LARK Georgia Peach Hits Safely in 35 Consecutive Games. RECORD IN MAJORS IS 40 High Mark Held by Great Detroit Slugger Himself Colored Midget as Bat Boy Held Responsi ble for Great Shpwlng. DETROIT. July 5. By driving out a three-base hit and a single In today's game against Chicago, Ty Cobb brought his record of games In which he has hit consecutively to 35. Cobb took part in a batting field day shared by members of the Detroit team. He was at bat five times. He must go through five more con tests without missing a hit to equal the major league record, which he holds, of 40 games. His great batting and lnfleldlng has been the cause of great crowds at Comiskey Park during the present se ries and, while he is different from any other player, he is like many in the fact that he is superstitious.. If Tris Speaker wishes to deprive Cobb of his batting honors he might consider separating his rival from his highly successful mascot. In other words. Speaker should kidnap Alexan der Rivers, colored bat boy and mascot of the Tigers. It Is Cobb's belief that this mascot Is partly responsible for his great showing this season. Several years ago, when the Detroit Tigers were in New Orleans, Cobb met Rivers, an ardent baseball fan. The Georgian was struck with the quaint wit and knowledge of baseball pos sessed by this colored midget, and it may be said in passing that Rivera took a liking to Cobb. 'How would you like to travel with the Tigers?" asked Cobb. "Guess we have a place for a fellow of your ac complishments." Don t think I could leave my busi ness Just now, Mr. Cobb." said Rivers. I ll keep you all In mind ana see what I can do for you later." ' This Spring when the Tigers visited New Orleans Alexander was right on the Job to greet his old acquaintance. Well. Alex, that offer still goes." said Cobb as be shook the hand of his admirer. "We certainly need you this year. I don't ahink wo can win the pennant without you." "Well, if it's as bad as that, Mr. Cobb, guess they'll have to get along without Alexander Rivers In this old city." Rivers Is a chauffeur in New Orleans. He arranged his business affairs and Joined the Tigers. On the train coming north the porter was dusting off the Tigers, preparatory to their getaway. The porter came over and dusted Alexander Rivers and was holding his coat In the act of helping him for the exit. "Say. Mr. Jennings, ain't some of you all got a camera?" said Rivers. "1 want a photograph of this to send back to New Orleans. Guess It would make 'em sit up and take notice." AVIATIOX STUDENT OX VISIT Stuart Freeman Being Taught Hov to Fly by Chrlstofferson.
