Two spitballers battled for the great er portion of two and one-quarter hours yesterday, and the Oak tallend champs triumphed because Charles Pruiett out salivaedRoy Brown. Not all the Oak players sat in on the revenge, however, because the excess baggage was banished off the bench early in the game for ragging vociferously at a de cision by Umpire Hayes. Still, some satisfaction can be gleaned even from the Arabics In the newspa pers. So lamp this: Score Oakland 6 Portland 1. It was debut day for Brown a most exasperating bow it must have been for him, because his support resembled that luxuriant delicatessen fruit called Swiss cheese. Like little Gene Krann of v nirf-n tymes. Brown was continually in trou-1 inrougn wuaness, and yet the diminutive damp artist was responsible for only two of the five runs chased across In his Incumbency. Hansen Then Goes In. When the score became too lopsided for much hope in the sixth Manager McCredie hustled Brown to the guard house and gave Elmer Hanson, another youngster, a tryout. Elmer yielded one run In his opening frame, and then settled snd was not troubled either In the eighth or ninth. Aside from Pruiett's high-class box work, the batting of Quintan and Mid dleton, two of Devlin's southpaw slug gers, featured the milling. Qulnlan hit safely, the first four times at bat against Brown. Middleton bagged three hits and two walks. These two rampaging horticulturists garnered more of those old base swats yesterday than the entire Portland out fit herded together. Six hits was Pruiett's skimpy allowance. It would have been fortunate Indeed had Judge Stevenson sentenced the Texan to life imprisonment when he had him before the bar of judgment the other day for spitting shot at chorus ladies. If Pruiett's aim with the lead pel lets anywhere near approaches his deadliness with the rubber-cored va riety, bessemer tights will be sartorial- apropos for stage attire when the Oaks are In town hereafter. Korea Solves Pruiett. Korea was the only Bexver able to puncture Pruiett's bombproof defense with much success. And Korea was largely responsible for the lone Port land score. His sacrifice fly scored Rodgers In the eighth inning, after Bill had singled and ambled to third on Ryan's two-bagger Into right field. Scrambled into the Oaks' scoring was some precarious baseball. Devlin's men registered their rirst score In the fourth inning, when Bobby Davis dropped a fly back- of second base. Ness was on second at the time from a walk and Alexander's bunt. Brown Invariably began each Inning either by walking a man or allowing a bingle. Second Sack Left Vacant. The Oaks scored two more in the fifth, principally because nobody cov ered second base on a made-to-order double play. Brown's perfect peg kept merrily on and a couple of base runners followed trump. Brown's only bad session was crowd ed Into the sixth, when successive hits by Pruiett. Quinlan, Murphy and Mid dleton brought in two baserunners. A remarkable line heave to home plate by Kyan saved another honk of the gong. Without waiting f'- further carnage l.cCredle marshaled Hanson into the warming box an- Elmer entered the box score in the seventh. AftT dis posing of two men, Hanson walked Alexander and Cook and scored him with a two-bagger into center. Series now stands two games for Portland, one for the Oaks.

Not a run was made until the second half of the eighth when, with two out, Venice scored Its three runs. Up to that point. Krtmer, the young Sacramento recruit who was in the box for the visitors, showed wonderful control, but he went to pieces suddenly and allowed two walks and two singles.

Western and Southern Leagues Dis content Xow Two Years Old, Due to Granting Class A A Rating to Three Leagues. BT ROSCOK FAWCETT. If any plan is afoot I n the minne leagues for desertion of organized base- oau, me .raciric Coast League It not a party to it. So says A. T. Baum. presi dent, who is a Portland visitor from San Francisco, thus spiking recent dis patches from the East, President Baum is authority for the statement that the Pacific Coast League nus no axes to grind and that it will stick with the majors in their battle against the Federal League. "I have heard that the Southern and the Western leagues are very much dissatisfied." said the popular Coast prexy, yesterday, prior to the Oakland game. "But. not so the Coast. The National commission has treated us with extreme fairness and there would be nothing to gain by allying ourselves with the guerilla movement. "Except in the two class A leagues, the Western and Southern, there ought not be any dissatisfaction, because the lower minors are practically supported by their sales and drafts to the majors. There would be no such revenue should they Jump the traces. The majors would simply go out and prab' players Just as the Federals have done." The Western and Southern Leagues' discontent had Its inception at the time Class A A rating was granted the Pa cific Coast, International and Ameri can Association, a couple of years ago. By granting a higher classification to these three leagues, the Western and Southern were left as the only Class A leagues. The rub comes in the system of drafting. Class AA clubs get 82500 for their drafts and Class A club only 81500, and, moreover. Class AA's can now levy upon Class A teams not touched by the majors. Walter McCredle, for instance, got "Dutch" Kores by drafting him from Des Moines, of the Western League, in the Fall of 1912. Whether the war spirit Is us strong as reported, only time will demonstrate, but the chances are the two blustering minors will stick with the National Association In preference to aligning themselves with the experimental Fed erals. Art Krueger. ex-Portland gardener, thinks far lebs of Portland than Port land thought of him last year. Since jumping the Angels for the Kansas city Federals. Romeo has turned propnet, and his horoscoplng eliows the poor Portland Coast club in terrible straits. Art says Chadbourne is a far bet ter ballplayer than Buddy Ryan and further states that Mac's pitching corps is all stot to pieces and every thing gone to "demnltion." Other gems out of Art's pipe are: Venice to win the pennant with ease. Oakland to be the "darkhorse," as the Oaks have the best pitching staff ever assembled in the Coast League. Los Angeles and San Francisco to be very weak and Sacramento also poor owing to loss of Kenworthy, whom Art characterizes as "the best player in the Coast League last year." All three of last year's Portland pitchers, now in the majors, have had their championship tryouts, Krapp with the Buffalo Feds. Bill James with the St, Louis Americans, and Rip Hagerman with Cleveland, and Hagerman is the only one who has not shown much. Bill James was sent in against De troit in the twelfth Inning Wednesday, with two on the bags and three runs were made off him by virtue of Cobb's triple. Crawford's single and V'etsch's sacrifice fly. James came back the next day, however, and defeated De troit. 8 to 5. Krapp, meanwhile, starred for Buf falo as relief pitcher in the opening game at Baltimore. The Rubber held his opponents runless for five in nings. Hagerman had his opportunity with the Naps Friday against Chicago and was driven from the box in the sixth inning. In five frames he allowed seven hits, good for five runs, two of the hits being homers by Collins and Lord, respectively. Rip walked four -men and struck out one. Chicago won. 6 to 5. GAMBLING MUST STOP BAUM President of Coast League Offers llewards for Convictions. After a quiet investigation. A. T. Baum. president of the Pacific Coast League, yesterday Issued a statement to the effect that gambling on the ball games Is highly prevalent In Portland. To check the evil he offers 1100 re ward for the arrest and conviction of each and every baseball gambler. President Baum leaves tonight fof San Francisco. His statement follows: "Gambling on baseball games must stop. After a week's Investigation. I am convinced that there is more open betting on baseball in Portland than in any other city in the league. The Pacific Coast League st-iids ready to fight this great evil to a finish. "Women and young boys are betting on baseball In this city. Certain busi ness places solicit betting for the few cents commission obtained. "My Investigators have furnished me with names, not only of places where betting is going on. but names of bet tors. These names will be used, if necessary, without regard to whom may be hurt. I am sure we have the support of all real lovers of the game, those who must realize that baseball Is the one professional sport that has not been tainted by gambling and which must be kept clean. "I purpose keeping in close touch with the situation and have the back ing of the directors of the leaguo to make this a permanent fight regardless of cost. "I offer a standing reward of 1100 for the arrest and conviction of any person guilty of gambling on baseball, and a reward of S 15 for the arrest and conviction of any person guilty of handling bets on baseball for com mission."
