HlpziEl seem: lane ited Da trip wm BY H. C. HAMILTON. (United Press Staff Correspondent.) New York, Aug. 29. Bill Donovan, bitterly disappointed over the failure of his high-priced stars and future greats to come through and lick the daylights out of the rest of the American League is a saddened man. Now he's on the trail cf some brand new ones, desired mainly for sound ness of bones, and he trustingly hopes the next year will bring solidarity that some day may be converted into a' championship team. Bill's outfield has been a source of continual worry. His infield has had its weak spots, and his pitching staff in spite of its potential strength has shown a diversity of form amazing in such hardy workers. When Bill went out and made the trade which brought Arrando Mar sans to New York and sent Lee Ma- gee to St. Louis, he selected an orange off the lemon tree, for Mar sans immediately began to play a great' fielding game, and to hit 'like he'd been used to hitting in the Amer ican League. One hole in that per plexing outfield appeared to have been filled. It was not to be, how ever. Marsans didn't wait long until he hooked a slide and hooked a bone in half at the same time. He's out of consideration now until next year. Veteran pitchers were relied upon by Donovan to carry the bulk of the load with several high-class recruits in reserve for emergency duty. Ray Caldwell has worked admirably, but unluckily most of the time. George Mogridge has pitched winning ball only in fits and starts, and Nick Cul lop has been a season's disappoint ment. Allen 'Russell has turned in a surprising amount of ability, but he too, went and got himself injured to an incapacitating stage. Ray Fisher has looked the best of the lot, but for some reason Donovan has been con tent to keep him on the bench and work him semi-occasionally. Already Donovan has been combing the minors. He picked up three play-1 ers from Jack Dunn's Baltimore club of the International League and will recall many recruits as the minor leaguers begin to end their seasons. New faces are due to visit the Polo grounds and appear in championship games this year. The process of re building promises to supplant at least four Yankees. marks a day, with only two marks deducted for board and room and rail road fare. He accepted and on the two-days' trip to Torgan, his entire fjod was two Rjd'iches. The meals and lodgings were un bearable, the Swede sai'd. For break fast they had two thin slices of bread and imitation coffee. Mid-day din ner consisted of sauerkraut and po tatoes and at supper they had only sauerkraut, which) was mostly water. At tea-time in the afternoon they had, in addition, two more slices of bread, without coffee. Their lodgings were im the pit of an unused theatre, where thirty-two workmen were barracked, ir bunks three' tiers high. ' I The railroad fare was deducted from hjs first week's wages end he was told it would nob 'be refunded or the return ticket paid for unless he worked three months. iHe was forced to work on Sundays and was treated as brutally as the war prisoners. After Bix weeks the Swede and two others pawned Jheir spare clothes, es caped by stealth and made their way back to Sweden, where they are warn- sons, of Prineville; Miss Anna Mc Cullough, Miss Bess Hendrick, of Prineville; Mrs. J. Casey, of Portland; and Mrs. Muriel Bater, of Elgin. C. D. Emahiser, of the La Grande Grocery Company, spent a short time at the park last week. Mrs. D. M. Clarke and daughter, of La Grande, spent three days ut the park enjoying all its natural wonders and beauties. E. L. Dean, a pioneer of Wallowa County, who is now located in Seattle, spent a week at the park. C. S. Holloman of Baker, spent the week-end domiciled at the park. G. K. Fargo, of Portland, and H. H.
