Tho team that led the Coast league for more than 12 weeks of the 1UJ3 season took another beating on Its return to Sacramento last night. Portland, did the lob, banging Salvo, Sanders and Noonan for 16 hits and a 7-4 vlotory. Fred Borgei-s eighth Inning triple; with two men on base decided the game for tno neavers. Lou Koupal, Portland mound ace, was frequently In trouble .but went the route. The defeat was Sacramento's 36th In 38 starts since Aug. 1.

PRESIDENT IS READY TO ACT IF NECESSARY (Continued from Page One) through Secretary Hull and Ambas sador Welles at Havana. , Mr. Roosevelt Is going to make sure that American Uvea are pro tected. Asked how quickly the marines could be moved to Cuba, Admiral Standley said that depended on whether they were sent by sea or air. He said a squadron of planes could put the marines In Cuba In six hours. It was Indicated the move ment out of Quantlco would be by train rather than on tho slower trans port Henderson. HAVANA, Sept. 6 W Cuba's dsyj old1 revolutionary government, confronted, with the possibility that ... nnir AnI fllA nt fhn nrmv to which It owes its life might got out j of hand, attacked tho problem of setting up the new state today by promising full representation for every revolutionary faction. Although the army privates and non-commissioned offlcors who ef fected the ousting of the De Cespedes government mingled during the night with civilians celebrating the gov ernmental upset, they did not get out of control. It was feared, however, that trouble might develop. - The work of establishing the new state got under way within range of the guns of an American destroyer lying in the harbor. Although Havana was compara tively peaceful other parts of the Island did) not enjoy similar condi tions. In Clenfuegos revolutionary dem onstrators sacked hardware stores, stealing firearms. Trado was at a standstill. Army and navy detach ments protected foreigners. ' Former Mayor Aragoncs of Clen fuegos was arrested as ho boarded the ' gunboat Balre with his family. Before leaders of the new govern ment went Into conference to discuss matters of policy, -Sergio Carbo, one . of the commission of flvo now head ing the administration, gave assur ances that every faction would re ceive representation. Carbo asserted! the most Important thing to accomplish right now was to insure public order. He said he was satisfied with existing conditions. American residents of the Isle of Pines sent a delegation to United States Ambassador Sumner Welles. The purpose of this action was not officially revealed but It was reported that the delegation asked that a de stroyer be sent to the Island, as they feared an uprlBlng among the 3000 Inmates of the model prison there. 4t fPH I as did llolloway of Detroit, Earnehaw and Ehmke of Philadelphia all right j handers and two southpaws, White hill and Braxton, Joe, whouo batting aver&go for 13 years stands at .316, says tho secret of his success Is merely "watching the ball and never trying to out guess the pitcher." . "I keep my eyes trained on that apple from the time It leaves the pitcher's hand until I complete my swlnK." explained Joe, "You can't outguess the pitcher. I take a fulr ly long hold on the bat and aim at the fence." A special type of camera devised for photo survey work, Is being used by the forest service In visual mapping, with oriented exposures being made from every lookout station In Oregon and Washington. The crew under Junior Forester Albert Arnst Is making the photographic maps as an aid In speeding fire detection, location and arrival ol lire lighters at the scene.

"Who, Joe Sewell?" asked Jhe Rube. "I don't know. Just lucky, I guess. Maybe some resin got In his eyes." "Wish I'd get lucky," muttered the famous southpaw ace. "He's one guy I've never been able to fan." Except for Joo Sewell, there prob ably Isn't a full fledged regular In the American league who has escaped striking out against the smoke ball of tho famous Orove, but "Lefty" doesn't have to get unduly irked about missing the veteran Yankee. Joe's the non -strikeout batsmen of all baseball. You can almost count on your fingers tho pitchers that have fanned him. Three Times This Year In 14 years of campaigning in the American league, facing many of the game's greatest pitchers, Sewell has struck out only 100 times In 1662 games. Instead; of slipping with age, his batting cyo has sharpened with tho years. Slnco 1925 he has taken his turn regularly at the plate and whiffed only 47 times In 1247 games. In 1030 and '32 ho struck out but three times. During the first 115 games this year, despite an epidemic of low hit pitching, he had been vic timized only three times, Wesley Fer rell of Cleveland, "Sad Sam" Jones of the White Sox, and Walberg turn ing the trick, Pat Caraway, formerly or the White Sox but now out of major league baseball, was tho moat successful pit cher against tho sharp eyed Joe. On May 20, 1930, Pnt a tall, angular tossor with a deceptive wind up, modo headlines by fanning Sewell twice in succession. Later in the season he struck him out again , the only three times Joe missed all season through 109 games. lust "WnUhes The liall" One of his "worst" years was 1928 when he whiffed nine times. George Blacholc'cr accomplished the feat twice.
