Salt Lake jumped from fifth to tie for fourth place in the Pacific Coast league yesterday by winning two pames from Portland, 8-3 and 5-1. About 1200 fans turned out in spite of the threatening weather and the Salt Lake club left town last night for California with $200 as its 40 per cent share of the water-logged series. Only two games of the series were played. The magnates were lucky to Bet them in for sprinkles of rain fell at intermittent periods during the en tire Sabbath afternoon. Every time Judge McCredie looked at his ba-' rometer his usually optimistic vi tality fell lower than a rattlesnake's hin. Ernie Johnson spent the J200 tip ping the beO-boys at the Imperial ho tel and then drew into the profits of the recent series at Seattle for the hotel bill and the railroad tickets to San Francisco. Beavers Slip In Mad. 'owing to the muddy underfooting the fielders found their work rather difficult yesterday. Curiously, how ever, it affected the Beavers rather more severely than it did the Salt La kers. Both Sutherland and, Sylvester Johnson were given wobbly support. Nick Cullop beat Sutherland, 8-3, and Ralph Stroud further clinched the kingpin honors among the league pitchers by defeating Johnson in the second game, 5-1. Johnson pitched brilliant, heady ball and the Bees really were- entitled to only one, arned run off his delivery. Charley Barnabe, in- centerfield. gave an imitation of a man with the t.. Vitus dance on a hot stove in one inning and let two runs chase across on young Johnson. Several of his teammates also assisted at the ob sequies. Mainel TVears Drownlnar. In the first game Dick Cox and George Maisel bumped together like a couple, of bull buffalos while chas ing a fly ball and both went down for the count. Cox is built like a double-shelled cocoanut and finally got up and continued playing, but Maisel had to quit the field. The ac cident backed up Walter McCredie's judgment in not playing the double - header Saturday. Both gardeners were out so long they probably would have drowned any other day in the week. Lew Blue submitted to an operation during the flood and watched the game from a box -while Koehler and Barnabe took turns dancing Around the initial sack like a suffragette casting her maiden ballot. Seattle AVants Series. The double - header may have narked the passing of the 1920 base ball procession. Seattle is attempt ing to get the league's consent for a switch of the impending Portland-Seattle series to Seattle. If the Vernon club gives 'its sanction to the change from Portland to Seattle the local "fish" will have to forego their oc casional butter-finger cotillion until a new spring rolls along. Salt Lake's wins yesterday tightens the pennant race like the skin on a tun-burned nose and it's no cinch yet that Vernon will win the cham pionships.

BROOKLYN NEARS PENNANT Giants Succumb and One More Came Puts Robins Safe. BROOKLYN, N. T., Sept. 26. By de feating New York. 4 to 2. today Brooklyn needs only one more vic tory to win the National league pen none. The Superbas can lose all their remaining games and the best the Giants could do by winning all would be to make it a tie race. The two clubs will resume their series at the Polo grounds Thursday and also will play Friday and Saturday. Brooklyn's victory today was due to the masterly pitching of Marquard and timely hitting by his teammates. Toney started for New York, but was touched for four hits and one run in the first two innings. Douglass, who succeeded him, kept the Brooklyn players off the paths until the sev enth, when he was directly responsible for two runs. Myers walked and took second on a passed -ball. Konetchy and Kilduff sent fly balls to King and then Douglass intentionally passed Krueger. Marquard also walked and a hit by Olson scored Myers and Krueger. Sallee pitched the last inning for the Giants and Brooklyn added an other run. Nels, batting for Griffith, hit for two bases and after Wheat went out scored on a single by Myers. George Burns scored both runs for New York, getting to first in each instance on an error. In the third Johnston's fumble gave Burns a lift and he completed the circuit on hits by Bancroft and Young. In the eighth Griffith dropped an easy fly by Burns. The latter advanced when Bancroft was passed and took third on Young's hit to left. Burns scored while Young was be ing forced out at second on Krisch's grounder to Olson.

TRAMBITAS IN FOR TIME Casey Due Tomorrow From North and Rest of Fighters Ready for Wednesday Card. BY DICK SHRP. Harvey Thorp and Alex Trambitas both put in a nard day's work at the Olympic gymnasium yesterday and will take a final tuning session with the gloves this afternoon for their ten-round bout at the Milwaukie arena Wednesday night. Boxing followers who have seen Thorp work out are of the opinion that Alex is in for a much harder tussle than he was with Johnny Till man, the Minneapolis battler. Tillman did not get here until the day before his match with Alex, so the fans did not get a pre-view of him in action, but he did work out here for four days after his mill with Tramblias. He did not show a great deal better in the gymnasium than he did in the ring, with the exception that he was getting in better shape. Hailblrdsj See Stunts. On the other hand. Thorp has been giving the railbirds something to talk about. He packs a snappy right hand punch that he lands from any angle, and his left is not tied down either. Krankie Murphy, the Denver welterweight. who worked with Thorp when the latter was training ror nis match with Benny Leonard in Joplin, Mo., last year, has been working with Harvey here. The Kansas City boxer also has his spar ring partner that "Chick" Johnson brought out with him. Dick Morris. Morris is a youngster and seems almost too good-looking to be a scrapper, but shows excellent prom ise of developing into a lightweight who will give a lot of boys callng themselves fighters trouble. ' Trambitas is feeling fit and step ping at a fast pace in his trainins routine against his brother -Valley and several other sparring mates. Jack Fahie's protege looks good, but win DC stacking up against a slam bang, boring-in boxer with a punch when he tangles with Thorp Johnny Tillman was aggressive as anyone could wish, but, despite the number of times that he landed, failed to dent the Portland boy's attack. The slow-ing-up punch was lacking. Cssey Dae Tomorrow. Harry Casey, the Seattle slugger who will meet Willie St. Claire in the semi-windup, is scheduled to put in his appearance tomorrow afternoon, accompanied by Dan Salt, the genial Seattle promoter. St. Clair has been taking care, of himself of late and can be expected to make things more in teresting for Harry, Wednesday night, than he did in their recent meeting at Vancouver barracks. Johnny Fiske has a job cut out for him to beat Young Sam Langford in the six-round special event, while Chick Rocco and Joe Hoff will box the other six-rou-nd bout on tho card. Joe Anderson, the Alaskan grizzly, will make his debut in the "big time" when he tangles with Bert Taylor, the negro heavyweight, in the four round curtain -raiser. Now that New York has its 15 round fighting, what is HI' old New Yawk going to do with its 15-round fighting? Champions are shying at Gotham. Benny Leonard has signed with Brit ton for a Cleveland no-decision canter, aiwl Johnny Wilson, whom many claim became the middleweight champion througn an accident, is passing the empire state up for whatever "waltzes" offer themselves in the bushes. tr Big Money Is Outnide. Johnny Kilbane and his feather weight title can't be dragged into a New York ring with a team of horses. Meanwhile, Gotham will have to be satisfied with the Johnny Duiidees, Willie Jacksons and Lew Tendlers. Of course, in the case of Britton and Leonard there is some excuse, for it is said that each is to receive a guarantee of $30,000, with the privi lege of taking 3j per cent of the re ceipts if they foot up bigger than the guarantees. Neither Britton nor Leon ard is in the game for the sheer Joy of it. so probably they can't consist ently be blamed. If there wasn't piles of money in boxing they probably would be following some other line. Leonard might be a salesman and Britton a stevedore, compelled to work hard for a living. But with a public in Cleveland will ing to pay them such big money, it would be poor management and busi ness to pass the bout up, even for their home-town admirers. -MURPHY SIGNS AT ABERDEEN" First Smoker Bouts Said to Be Best in Years.
