THE XOKXrXG OREGOXIAX. THUHSDAX, DECEMBER ,7, lQg. 7 ft" TOSSERS ARE HOME Manager McCredie Discusses Reasons for Defeat. MAY "RETIRE FROM LABORS 3Ianaser Brings Xcws That Season Will Be Lengthened Next Year, Although Definite Arrange- ments Are Not Made. The remnant of the Portland baseball team of 1905 drifted Into town yester day morning. They number four and ivkh the exception of Mike Mitchell, will nend the Winter In this city. In addition to Mltphell. Manager McCre die. Jack McLean and Catcher Jack Siiess came un from California. Van Buren and Callff were on the same train, but the former dropped off at Sacramento for a few days with Jay , Hughes at duck shooting, while Callff l'ft the train, at his home In Oregon City. Esslck and Sweeney were Inclined to come North, but changed their minds later and returned to their homes in the East. Jake Ate will prob ably Join the local colony of ball toss ts as soon as the post season series between the Los Angeles and Tacoma teams i concluded, for the little short stop likes Portland and has written Manager McCredie. requesting him to make a deal with Morley to get him back on the local club. When asked about the recent trade with Morley whereby he traded Atz and Schlafly for Flood. Smith and Toren. Manager McCredie said: "I think 1 secured the best of the deal, for ihe understanding Is that the trade does not go junless Tim Flood is reinstated next eason. By this trade J secured three star players arin gave only one. for I do not consider Schlafly a valuable man because he Is too fond of carousing. He and one or two others of the club were responsible for nearly every game we lost in the. South. In was simply disgraceful, for they not only threw me down, but their own teammates as well. I con sldor Tim Flood the best second base man in the league, and I believe that Prcsldont Bert will withdraw the blacklist when he Investigates the clr cumstunccs that led up to the assault on Davis. "I do not believe in countenancing rowdy baseball, but I think Flood has been nunlshcd enough for the offense. Jud Smith is a cracking good third baseman,, and the way Sweeney played the position of shortstop during the last few games stamps him as a very good man. I don't think he comes up to Atz" standard as a fielder, but neverthe less he is equal if not better than any of the other men at that position in the league If Flood Is reinstated. It Is likoly that I may arrange a trade with Mo.-lcy in which McLean or Smith, or perhaps both may be traded for Atz. "It is too early yc.to determine dofl liltoly on any plans, for my uncle and myself may rotlre from the game In this city, which is our Intention unless ome arrangement Is perfected where by we secure the holdings of Mr. Ely. It .is absolutely Impossible to get along with that man. and no manager on earth could keep harmony on his club with a man like him connected with he running of the affairs of the club. One or the other of us must get out." A meeting of the McCredie" wing of the Portland Baseball Company will be held In this city Saturday, providing . hptil Judge W. W. McCredie concludes the session of court over which he is now presiding, at which some definite decision an to their course In baseball 'lll bo determined upon. McCredie also spoke a good' "word tor Callff and Suess, the youngsters he took South with him. In reference to Ci.Mrr. McCredie stated that he would not take $1000 for the services of this young pitcher, and says that he thinks that he Is the equal of Bobby Keefe in overy particular. McCredie also antici pates great things of Pete Lister, the new first baseman, who is to. join the club In the Spring. Another piece of news the local man 'ager brought back Is the fact that the league has decided to reduce the length of the playing season. McCredie says thai from what he has heard from the othr magnates, the season of 1936 will not start until May. and will be con cluded during November. far as to say that tbe l&aky Auetr&Haa bt doing entirely too sues roa work, but with his years of experience, tit should certainly know what is needful and what he can stand. As to the hands that hrr struck o many sledge-hammer blows, there Is al ways a doubt as to whether they wiu stand, but the long rest they have had has undoubtedly been a help. Another thing that will be greatly in favor of Fltz Is that the armies or agreement al low him to use practically anything he wants in the way of bandages. In most articles of agreement for contests under the Marquis of Queensbury rules only soft bandages are called for and allowed. In the articles for the coming big match that 1- dated for December 20. there is no restriction In the way of soft band ages and the freckled one with the sus picious weakness In his mlts can alraoe: go Into the ring with a plaster caM. si hard and tight can his bands be ban daged. The showing that Fltxslmmons la made on the Coast when he met George Gardner, was not so good as to be re membered as any great feat In pugilism and he is aware of the fact that he now has a chance to make good and seems to be bending his every effort In that dL rectlon. Tracey-Zubrlck Mill Tomorrow. The Tracey-Zubrlclc bout scheduled for Vancouver tomorrow evening. Is attracting more than the usual amount of Interest among the local sports, and judging- from the comment about town there will be a large gathering of the local sports at the ringside when the men enter the arena. Betting Is about even at present, but the Indications are that the Los Angeles man will be slight favorite on the day of the contest. CHARTER French Ship 'Crilton Needs Speed to Win.

People Especially Are Sus ceptible to This Iaflwace The Secret of Health. -The nourishment taken by body and mind, the extent to which this nourish ment Is assimilated, the form and pro portions In which it Is taken into the system, the amount of food and drink consumed, and the care given to the body and Its various functions all profoundly affect the health." says a recent edi torial In "Good Housekeeping." that great authority on matters pertaining to the home. "Some Individuals think they can abuse the laws of nature with Impunity, but even generous endowments of physical vigor eventually succumb, while the great ma&s of people, especially the young, are peculiarly susceptible to the food they consume." As "Good Housekeeping" In an edl- toria suggests, health depends not so much on the nourishment taken into the stomach as on the extent to which this nourishment is taken up by the sys tem. Malta-Vita, the perfect malted whole-wheat food, so rich In nourishment. containing every food element necessary to the sustenance of the human body and mind. Is readily assimilated, even by the weakest stomach, because of the large percentage of Maltose, or malt sugar, which it contains. Maltose Is a natural sweetening agent and forms rich, healthy blood. Malta-Vita is especially beneficial for children and It is so good to eat not at all like the tasteless variety of breakfast foods that the whole family welcome Its appearance on the table.

Particulars are meager but It 1 supposed that the ves sel proceeded In charge of the first of fleer In order to reach the Columbia before the expiration of the charter. There is reason to believe that the Crlllon has experienced some of the terrible hardships shared by the ships Eskasonl.

Another vessel now pretty well over due Is the British ship Bardowle. which left Europe nearly 300 days ago. She ran into bad weather with many others and was forced to put Into Cape Town July 17 for repairs. Since Railing from that port on August nothing has been heard from her. ex cept that some weeks ago an incoming vessel reported her off the Columbia River bar. Little credence was placed In this report, however, and with the arrival of the ship Brabloch on No vember 24. the belief gained ground that the Brabloch was mistaken for the Bardowle. while hanging around off the bar waiting for a tow. Unless having lost her bearings, the Bardowle had no business off the Co lumbla River at that time since her ordera are to deliver a portion of her cargo at Port Los Angeles before pro cc-dlng to Portland.

"My brain grew sluggish and insomnia punished me till I became a hysterical wreck. My only hope and desire at this time was that I might reach the end of a painful life, and that speedily. "I heard ot the predigested Grape Nuts food and some months ago, without one grain ot faith In it. bought a box. I found to my surprise that after one day's use of It I was already benefited, and by the time I had used all of the first pack age I became convinced that the days ot miracles are not yet over so great was the Improvement that had come over me. It was the opening of the door, as It were, to good health and energy of brain and body. It gave me new vigor, mental and physical, my digestion was restored, all the distressing symptoms of a disordered stomach passed away, and the nervous, hysterical woman at last began to know what It really Is to live. My eyes "grew brighter and my body rounded out with returning flesh. In the first three weeks I gained lt pounds in weight and ICO in strength and energy. "The Indescribable relief that came when I realized that I -could discard the nauseating drugs with which I had been so long dosing myself and use In their stead a food so delicious and strengthen ing as Grape-Nuts, may be Imagined. "I write this In simple gratitude, for I feel that Grape-Xuts food has brought back to me all the joy ot living." Xaaw given by Postnrn Co., Battle Creek, Mic'fi- Tfccrc's a raa.
