Dugdale has surrounrtea i ... Dugdale has surrounded himself with a emaehiner eond hull fm a j j j to this is the interest the fans had in again seeing Portland having a club in the Lucas League and Dugdale's undis puted popularity. It must be said also that Manager Casey comes in for some of this popularity, so taking it all in all there are reasons for the large crowd that have been turning out to see the games. Yet after a study of the figures quoted above, it is to smile, for where is California's boast of its baseball loving fans. The answer is ready, they're broke and the loos money has been gathered up by the sojourners and has been carted out of the country. Mao Rae Slakes Predlctlona. This may be an early boast and a wrong steer, but one that I will risk, that when the umps will have yelled "play ball for the last time this Fall, that month for month, the attendance in the Northwestern League will be greater than that of the Coast League. Take right straight through the Coast League sea son. Portland will turn out more people than either San Francisco and Los An geles. McCredie has a team that Is going 0.,aPa attending to its business and will figure at all times In-the race for the bunting, unless the hardest kind of hard luck hits Manager Mac s crew. Man ager Casey hasn't hit his stride, but the fans at home need not worry, they'll be coming along very soon. In hooking up against Seattle, Casey's Colts ran against a shifty lot of ball players and a fighting playing manager in Mike Lynch. The team had done all of its training on its own door step and knew the grounds as a miser does his -gold. Without taking any of the s-Wv DUSdale' hired men tor taking lvf tralg"t rrom us' 11 must be said from Dugdale's hired men fr.,- i.w.. that the Sunday and Monday games were dfts nnrft find Simula T1 V, . t . vfcuiiig same that Ed Klnsella pitched was anybody's game and it was won by Seattle purely on team merit. Bone headed plays and a disregard for Manager Casey's instruc tions cost us the Sunday game and on Monday Chinault's mind failed to work. He pitched a swell game of ball, but during a Seattle rally, he forgot. The big southerner thought two were out when there was only one down and he missed an easy double play which would have retired the side and given Portland the game. . Seattle Strong Behind Bat. While it must be admitted there is something to be said about the grounds here, yet it is not as tough a place in which to play ball as tome of the critics have pictured it. The sun in right field is of course a terror. Bassey can prove this, for Casey has switched him over there and he has lost his batting eye en tirely. After glaring into, the sua he cannot see the ball when It comes over the plate under the shade of th rra stand. Frisk, who is in the right garden for Seattle also has his troubles, so the break is about even. Behind the bat just now Seattle is much stronger than Portland LKust6r nd Danny shea, when he -gets 1 into condition. Dumlalo will ha .n .t ?

In the infleld Port land is strongest, for Casey around that keystone suck cannot" be Beat in any minor league and Cooney is faster than Raymond. I think Mullin once he gets going will have It on Scofleld a shade at the bat and he nelds his position just as well. At third Seattle has Akin and be tween him and Staton it is a toss up. In the outfield- as both teams now stand. Seattle has a decided shade the better. Swanton could not play the sunfield and his switch to left and his worry over' his inability to play the right garden here has thrown-him off his stride. He trill come back once he gets away from here Lynch -in center has it on Garry bedause of his years of experience and his knowl edge of. the players and where they hit Bassey is playing the sun field just as well as Frisk and he seems to be . able to cover more ground. Casey's Twlrlers Coming On. "When both team,s get straightened away and the pitchers ' get going. I think Casey's pitching staff will prove to be the best. It looks as if all of Dugdale's pitchers were going on about their busi ness now. Just as good as they will along about July, while all of Casey's twlrlers are just coming on. One thing is sure, Seattle right now is baseball crasy and the fans are telling Dugdale that he has surrounded himself with the best ball team Seattle ever had The credit of getting together this team is due to the combined efforts of Mike Lynch and Dugdale, : and. this year they are not going to take any , cbances of being knocked - out of the race. They have strings on a dozen players and by touching the. wire, they can. replace a player in a few days. The fans are with Dugdale hook, line and sinker, and if it is possible 'to capture the pennant iugaaie win sure land, the rae for Seattle.

When eight miles had been covered, Shrubb had a lead of two laps, and this seemed to content him, for he ran the. rest of the -race-at St. Yves' side. In the last two .miles of the race St. Yves made . frantic, efforts , to- overtake his rival, but to no avail. . Shrubb's time for "the race, 1 hour 28 minutes and 1? seconds,' was more than four minutes behind the professional rec ord, and nearly six minutes behind the amateur mark. This- slow time was du to the fact that the Frenchman could not make him do his best during the last half of the race. Takes Lead at Start. Shrubb started with his usual graceful stride, while St. Yves went off at the short pace, which served him so well in the Marathon derby. In the first lap 8hrubb obtained a lead of about 20 yards and increased this materially as the race progressed. In the fourth Jap St. Yves showed more speed,, but Shrubb increased his pace so that at the end of the sixth lap, or the finish of the first mile, he was a quarter of a lap in front.
