San Francisco -. Other teams traveling. Haueball in Portland has put on Its inter underwear. Official sanction to switching the Portland versus Seattle series (scheduled for Twenty fourth and Vaughn street this week to Seattle was received from- Presi dent McCarthy of tho Pacific coast league yesterday. Instead of opening in Portland this afternoon the two teams will clash in Seattle over the seven-game route. The Portland athletes and Manager McC'redie departed at midnight for the north. One week in Seattle and two weeks in California will wind up the tseaSon for the Beavers. "I want the Portland players to do their best this week at Seattle," de clared Judge McCrede yesterday, "-cattle has a chance ""tor the pen rant and will try its hardest to take a majority of games from the Peav ers. 1 will not complain if the Port land boys lose the series, but I don't want them letting up one bit." In the meantime the judge is re flecting upon the idiosyncraclea and "viiBurirs of the Oregon weather. It milled all last week with the ball club home, and just as soon as word came of a switch in the coming series to Seattle Old Sol came out In his spring plumage. Judge McCredi says it is enough to drive a prohibitionist to saxophona olo practice on a thermos bottle. Eddie Bogart, Portland boy, who was with tlfe Beavers for a while several seasons ago, is home for the winter after a successful season In the outfield with the Joplin club of the Western league. L,aat season Eddie played in the Western Canada circuit and was bought by St. l.ouls for a trial. He was farmed out to Joplin when the season Rot under way. He will report to the Cardinals next spring. It' is the consensus of opinon of the fairs that Seattle lost ita chance to win the 1920 coast league pennant bv dropping two games Sunday to Sacramento. Had the Hainiers kept up their streak and triumphed over Bill Hodgers" warriors twice In the final brace of games they -would have been within striking distance of low ering Vernon's colors. Vernon will have to face the fero cious Seals this week and may be in for a harder battle than the dope sters had it figured. Charley Gra ham's cohorts put up a much stronger battle than expected against the Angels and copped the series. On the other hand the lowly Oaks m.-inazeii to bag three out of its seven-game series with the champions last week. l.os Angeles wilf lock horns with Oakland this week, while- Salt lakc will drag its weary way to sacra- mento to engage the Senators in mortal combat. No longer have Pacific coat league left-handers an oasis where they can take it easy for a time. For the man who now says that Vernon la weak against crooked-arm slinging docs not know whereof he speaks. His thoughts do not run in tbe natural order of sequence. He's all wrong. Time wa when a craxy left-hander threw his glove out on the knoll Pill Kssick's Bengals were tamed right off. Time has changed; those scenes have vanished. You'd never know that old Tiger team. It looks as If there'll be winter "haseball on the legal diamond. Will iam -. Rumler, Salt Lake outfielder, expelled for five years by President "William H. McCarthy in connection with the W. Baker Borton case, now threatens to sue the league for $S0, liOO. Kumler is the third party to start talking about going Into court. Borton has already filed action against Essick. President McCarthy ordered the Vernon club to sue 'Bor ton. Rumler was released after It had been proved that he had received a t20 draft from Borton forwarded ay the latter on October 18, 1919. Rum ler said the money was in payment of a bet wherein he wagered against his own club. - Rollie Zeider wants to e an iimp in the coast league. Kollie has put in his application nd will be knock ing at the door for admission next KeuMon. Zeider realizes that his playing days or a over, and he wants a perma nent berth In baseball. With the experience Rollie has had on the field, he should mane a gooa umpire, that is, if an umpire can be called good.

AIR FRAMEUP IS CHARGED UOHLFS FOUND ONLY BRUISED AS RESULT OF TUMBLE. American Clubs Demand Sale Field, Charging Foreign En trants With Foul Tactics. NEW YORK, Sept. 27. Demands that official of the James Gordon Bennett international airplane race to start tomorrow at Etampes. France, Immediately designate another land ins field and modify the rules were cabled today to Colonel Thompson, in charge of the American entries, by Captain Claude R. Collins, presi dent of the Aviators' Club of Penn sylvania, and C. A. Wright, presi dent of the Aero Club of Texas., They asserted that only a miracle can save the pilots of the remaining American planes entered from death or injuries even more serious than sustained by Roland Rohlfs yesterday. If the changes are not made. "I have no hesitancy in saying." said Captain Collins, "that for some weeks It has been believed that foul means were being taken by foreign entrants to keep America from lift ing the trophy. Every effort to force the French to abandon the field at Etampes. which is so rough none of the American entries have been able to fly from It, has proved frultle-ss." ETAMPES, France. Sept. 27. The injuries of Roland Rohlfs, who was hurt yesterday when the Texas Wild cat, an airplane in which he was practicing for the James Gordon Ben nett aviation cup race tomorrow, was wrecked landing here, have been found, to be only bruises and scratches. The weather prospects for the James Gordon Bennett aviation cup race to morrow were poor tonight. It rained all afternoon and a further fall is predicted for tomorrow. The first flyer will be ordered to start at 7 o'clock in the morning. Each contestant will have 30 minutes to take the air after the officials in form him that it is time for him to start. Only one trial is to be allowed each machine. Any flyer crossing the starting line and failing to finish, no matter for what reason, will be eliminated. Captain R. W Schroeder has his United States army airplane out thi3 evening testing the motor He did not take the air in his machine, but he went over the course in a slow-going plane during the day, particularly to have a look at the tum round the pole from the air While Sadi Lecointe, the Frenchman, is still the favorite, the layers of odds are showing more respect for the American machines.

TRAM3ITAS IN FOR TIME Evans Has Landlord-Herman Arranged and Tomorrow's Bouts Are All Set. Go BY DICK SHARP. "Chick" Johnson, manager of Har vey Thorp, Kansas Citj welterweight, says that the best way to judge a fighter's ability is by the number of return dates he gets in each city. Thorp is one of the country's best re peaters. In nearly every city in which Thorp has shown his wares once he has been used again by the selfsame promoters from two to seven and eight times more. Johnson figures thatlf a boxer shows any real stuff the match, makers and the fans will want more of him. Hence a concrete example of why Harvey is one of the best draw ing cards in the country. He delivers the goods. Tomorrow night at the Milwaukle arena Thorp wilt match his reputation and experience against Alex Tram bitas. Portland's representative for national welterweight honors. Alex has been coming along with leaps and bounds, to use a hackneyed phrase. Jack Fahie places great hopes in his youthful fistic protege and thinks that it will take a bett'er man than Thorp to slow Trambitas up. He says this on the basis that everyone is en titled to their opinion. Others have different beliefs as to the outcome of the ten-round fracas between Thorp and Trambitas. but all have the same idea in that the match will be a great fight. Thorp Han All Kinds. Thorp Is an incessant puncher. He brings his blows from every angle and levels many wallops to vulnerable points of the body below the chin and above the belt. Many boxers have come to Portland from the outside realm of fistiania with past achievements to their credit that would outdo old Baron Mun chausen himself. The great majority of these proved what Henrsy Ford's machines have not proved to be flivvers. Among them were Kver Hammer, Bob Roper, Gunboat Smith, Johnuy Sheppard. Jim Flynn and down the line. All has-beens or never wases. But it can be said that In every case the said boxers were tabbed at once by the fans, who refused to be fooled, and their consequent showings did not come as a surprise. Every close follower of the boxing game knows Harvey Thorp, or rather knows of him and his work. He is in the height of his career and in Port land to win and fight again here. HI? record speaks for itself and does not begin back in 1900 and end about 1915. Thorp is not out here for any easy money and looks for a hard fight every time he starts. Prisoners See Boxinsr. Both boxers are reported by their managers as primed for tomorrow night. Neither boy will indulge in much hard work today nor do any boxing until the start of the melee. Three of the boxers on Wednesday night's programme participated in a boxing card staged at the state peni tentiary in Salem last night for the benefit of the inmates. Harvey Thorp boxed Frankie Murphy. Johnny Fiske took on Dick Morris, Thorp's sparring mate, and Willie St. Clair mixed with Carmen Demilleta. The latter is an inmate of the institution and a good lightweight. The-matches were possible through the courtesy of Matchmaker Frank Kendall and Manager George Moore of the Milwaukie arena and the boys themselves. Kewpie" Callender, the Minneapolis bantamweight, who is now under the management of Tom O'Rourke, will meet Charley Ledoux, the French champion, in New York October 12. Callender was a member of the United States marine corps during the war and for a time was stationed at Mare island. He did not show 'much around San Francisco, but evidently has im proved. Johnny Tillman. Minneapolis welter, who fought Alex Trambitas here re cently, will box Travie Davis four rounds in Seattle tomorrow night. Matchmaker Bobby Evans of the Portland boxing- commission has com pleted all arrangements for his ten round main event at the Heilig the ater October 6 between the veteran Sam Langford and "Tiny" Herman.

In anticipation of his team winning the American league pennant. 'It Is a gamble with me, Mr. Dunn explained, "but inasmuch as stands cannot be completed in less than seven days, I could not afford to wait until the winner of the flajy Is decided." Mr. Dunn left tonight for Chicago to request the national baseball com mission to postpone the opening game of the world's series until October 7.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 27. (Spe cial.) Another upheaval in the Coast league loomed today with the an nouncement by William H. McCarthy, president, that he. had been demanded to call a special session of the league d i rectors next Thursday at the St. Francis hotel to discuss the probabil ity of a reversal in his decision bar ring. William (Big Bill") Rumler, Salt Lake outfielder, from the league for irregularities in a gambling scan dal. The petition received by McCarthy at local baseball headquarters today was signed by four directors of the league W. W. McCredie of Portland, W. H. Klepper of Seattle, Lewis More ing of Sacramento and J. Cal Ewing. owner of the Oakland Baseball club. According to the constitution of the league, it Is necessary that four club owners sign such a petition before the pres-ident of the league must accede to their demands. McCarthy Stands) Firm. McCarthy, in discussing the chances of the league directors reversing his decision In the Rumler case, says: "Any leniency in the case of the Salt Lake outfielder by the coast league club owners will mean my resignation. I do not propose to al low a ball player -who the public suspects of being irregular to play in organized baseball. Rumler. even though he was only 'saving stakes' in his bet with 'Babe' Borton, has com mitted an indiscretion for which he has been punished. 1 f baseball isn't bigger than any one player then it Is time for the public to step in and take a hand. The meeting, as characterized by McCarthy, promises a lot of fire works. It is believed the Salt Lake management will take the case to court in the event of their not being able to make McCarthy reverse his action. When McCarthy first secured evi dence that Rumler had been impli cated in the coast league gambling scandal, he suspended him indefi nitely. Later it was learned that he was exceeding his authority in bus pending a player "indefinitely. ' so he lifted the indefinite suspension and expelled him for five years. It is to lift this , sentence that William H Lane and Secretary Jack Cook of tho .Salt Lake club promise to put Mc Carthy on the grill Thursday. Ilee Sale Is Blocked. Rumler. it is said, has been receiv inar his regular salary from the Salt Lake club ince he drew his suspen sion, i'nor to the scandal the Salt Lake owners were negotiating with a major league club for his .ale. It is said a sum exceeding $10,000 and players was to be paid for Rumler's services at the end of the present season. Since McCarthy took action against Rumler Secretary Jack Cook, it Is said, has made a canvass o all coast league towns securing the signatures of the owners to the petition which today finally brought about the spe cial conclave.
