Worried and harassed by his con
stantly growing hospital list Walter
McCredle telegraphed north yesterday
and ordered Bill Rodgers back Into
harness. The Portland captain has
been out of the game for nearly a
month with a fractured shoulder. With
Hollocher. Pinelli and Borton on the
shelf, however. Mack doubtless figured
Rodgers would strengthen the team
even with his fractured clavical.
Rodgers has been rusticating at
Judge McCredie's hot springs near
Eugene, but upon receipt of his
superior's command, he came to Port
land and left last night In company
with his young son for San Fran
cisco. McCredle is quoted as being much
peeved at the Chicago Cubs for fail
ing to deliver Southpaw Reuther Just
when Mack needed him. When Mails
Jumped the club the Beavers were in
dire need of a new pitcher and this
consideration is said to have been one
of the main points In the transaction
whereby Hollocher was sold to the
Cubs.
McCredle demanded a new pitcher
and Reuther was promised. Now it
comes from the Windy City that Cin
cinnati has refused to waive on
Reuther and Portland Is left in the
soup.
Last week will go down In local
baseball history as "chipped beef '
week because quite a number of the
athletes had chips taken off their
anatomies. Hollocher had to quit with
a lame arm; Klllefer slid Into Pinelli
at third and cut a gash in his knee
that may lay the lnfielder up for a
fortnight and Babe Borton sustained a
hernia on the left side that may put
him on the ailing list for the entire
season. Dr. Spence, of Los Angeles,
examined Babe and after his diagnosis
said the Beaver firt sacker would be
lucky to get back into the game at
all this year.
These injuries, the Jumping of Walter
Mails and Sunday's announcement that
Cincinnati had refused to waive on
Southpaw Reuther can lead to only one
conclusion, to-wit: that old man Jinx
Is on the Beavers" trail.
Both Coast League leaders, the Seals
and Angels fattened off the second
division lambs last week. While the
Angels were drubbing the Beavers six
games of the seven, San Francisco
maintained its margin by trimming the
Oaks six times in seven starts.
Hollocher was going great guns last
week up to his injury. In nine times
at bat the young shortstop hit .556.
Siglin batted .370, Williams came back
with .308, Wilie .280, Griggs .273,
Farmer .261. Fisher .222 and Baldwin
.130. Hunter, the lnfielder released
by Vernon and signed in the pinch by
Portland, batted .300.
One surprise last series was the
beating administered to Salt Lake by
the lowly Vernons. The Tigers won
five out of seven games.
YOTTXGSTEK'S DIVING AMAZES
Little Son of Jimmie Richardson
Makes lilt at San Francisco.
James J. Richardson, the Beaver
scout, has Just received a letter from
Norman Ross, champion swimmer, who
has been startling the world by his
sensational performances. George
Richardson, son . - "Jimmle," Is visiting
In San Francisco, his birthplace, and, as
a guest of Ross, he was taken to t-ie
Olympic Club and persuaded to give a
diving exhibition. Young Richardson
Is a pupil of Jack Cody's, and during
the Rose Carnival gave a diving exhi
bition during the swimming champion
ships. According to Ross, the youngster
startled the Southern fans. He writes:
"Had your boy up to the Olympic
Club today. George is some diver for
r little tad. Had all the kids stand
ing around watcning him. Ought to
be a champion some day. Sid Cavill 13
away on his vacation, but 1 expect him
. back tomorrow. Will have Cavill look
the youngster over."
Bits of Shrapnel.
A GOOD yarn Involving "Rowdy" El
liott. ex-Oak catcher, now a mem
ber of the Chicago Cubs, is told at the
expense of Garnet Bush, one of the
' Coast League ex-umpires.
Bush and one of his pals visited the
tach and were feeling good. They
were sunning themselves on the beach
when a chap passed with an armful of
glasses. He slipped and fell. the
glasses splintering Into a thousand
pieces.
"What was that?" asked Bush, turn
ing to his comrade.
His comrade looked around, but fall

ing to see anything, he exclaimed:
"Thash wash the tide coming in."
Shortly afterward Bush was umpir
ing a game in San Francisco, one of
the few parks in the country where
the sale of liquor on the grounds is
permitted. Along about the middle of
the game one of the garcona fell with a
whole tray of beer glasses and the
noise was deafening. Turning around.
Bush asked: "What was that?"
"That." said Rowdy Elliott, who was
catching, "was the tide coming In."
"Five bucks for you and out of the
game!" roared Bush; "that will teach
you to get flip with your tongue."
Introducing the "Master Manager."
We mean Christy Mathewson, the man
who put the Reds in the first division.
We didn't think it could be done, but
stranger things have happened and the
Reds are in the first division.
And they look like they're there to
stay.

to obtain larger numbers resulted in
numerous fishermen on Rogue River
forgetting the dead line established in
1916 by State Game Warden Shoemaker,
and about 20 men drifted below the line
towards sea. Officials promptly in
voked the law against them and 17
were fined by the Justice of the Peace.
One man who had been prominent in
the violation was fined $100, but the
others got off with lighter penalties.

in the 1917 season there had been any
trouble about the observance of the
fishing laws on Rogue River.

TRAMBITAS IS BACK
Middleweight Champion Goes
Well in South.
MORE BOUTS ARE SOUGHT
Billy Wright Returns to Seattle
After Meeting Fast Boys in Cal
ifornia Eddie Pinkman Is
Now In the Army.
Valley Trambitas, the aggressive
Portland middleweight who holds the
158-pound championship of the North
west, is back in the city and will re
main here for several months before
going back to San Francisco or pos
sibly on a trip East next Winter.
While in the South Valley met the
best of them and proved that he can
stand up with anyone on the Coast at
his weight. Among the boys he fought
are Battling Ortega, Mexican Kid Car
ter, Eddie Palmer, Young Jack John
son. Eddie Hughes and Eddie Burns.
Trambitas fought Ortega when the lat
ter was middleweight champion of the
Pacific Coast and gave the Mexican the
hardest fight that he ever got in his
life.
Just as he was getting started and
beating all of his opponents Valley
got a sick spell and was laid up for
nearly five months. He will rest up
for a few weeks here and will then be
ready to meet any middleweight the
promoters in the Northwest will pick
for him. He would like to step over
the 10-round route with Dick Wells, in
Vancouver, or any other 158-pounder in
the Northwest. Trambitas could have
met Frank Barrieau, Pacific Coast
middleweight champion. In San Fran
cisco, this Friday night, but as he had
already made arrangements for com
ing home he had to turn the match
down.
Valley is only 19 years old and does
not come under the draft law. Be
sides, he supports his mother and five
children, so he would not be likely to
be called to the service.
Billy Wright, the Seattle boxer who
claims the welterweight championship
of the Pacific Coast, is back in Seattle
after passing about a year in Los An
geles and San Francisco. He lost only
one bout while in the South, that to
Battling Ortega, who knocked him out
in three rounds.
Among the Seattle boxers who have
been drafted is Harry Casey, the rug
ged Seattle lightweight who gave
Muff Bronson such a battle here a few
months ago.
Eddie Brewster Pinkman Is in the
Army, but Eddie says it will not inter
fere with his boxing if he gets a chance
to get a good bout. Pinkman thinks
that he can get permission from the
authorities to show in Seattle if he
tried, and that he would like nothing
better than to meet Benny Leonard.
Bashful Edward goes on to say that he
thinks that he is still as good as the
best of them.

Boeckel has been sold to ihe Pitts

the management of the Pirates he
scouted for the Pirates and picked
Boeckel as one of the best in the
