Dolly Gray! Lew Dock stader's band played the tune and 4800 of Portlands flower and manhood hummed It and yelled in fiendish delight when Leader Cupero struck up the song. In the song they might have missed Dolly Gray, but it's a matter of history recorded by yesterday"s matinee that only a few of Mct'redie's artillerists missed Dolly's offerings. Right in the opening session, with Ryan in pickle. Tom Raf tery slammed one of Gray's pills to deep right center for three bases, and then Babe Danzig celebrated the stitch in his side by lining one oyer Wheeler's head, scoring the lad from Boston. This was not enough to satisfy. Gray mislaid his range-finder and he issued promissory notes to Bassey and Johnson. McCredie. whose fancy for southpaws is akin to the devil's for holy water, fouled out to Hogan. Next It was Cooney. Three were on the perches when Gray shoved one that hit our nifty little short stop right on top of the bean. Cooney Fmiled and shook his dusky locks, trotted to firpt and Danzig pattered home. The bases were still chuck-a-block when Madden went out. Loo Loos Tie Score. This was the opening inning, and It looked good enough to win, but before It came, time for tea and dessert the large number of hosts within the Vaughn street gates saw Los Angeles tie the struggle up and a number of smashing good plays to boot. Cooney's work at short was studded with diamonds. He took care of eight chances that were bent on trouble. Oakes robbed Bassey of a three-bagger, if not a homer, by a long, spectacular run. and the work of Ote Johnson, who. held down Casey's shoes at second because Pearl was laid up. was worth the price of admission. He was there with a couple of two-base clouts that tickled the cockles of the hearts of the put-ups. While Jesse Garrett, the silent Texan, was pitching a game that was of the American Beauty order. Gray was as wild as a kid that had been reading dime nov els. Gray walked nine men. but there was a time when it looked as if in r,it of his generosity, we weren't going to gain mucn. in tno rourth. with Dillon in the brine. Brashear singled to right and McCredle's digits got In the way of the bounder and the ball went to the fence, giving Kitty a chance to reach third. Jud Smith scored him with a nicely exe cuted squeeze play. In the fifth, the Loo Loos annexed another and tied the score. . Delmas drove one to left and Hogan put him on second with a sacrifice. Delmas went to thiru on Gray's out and scored on a single by Oakes. Cooney brought the crowd to its collective feet when he grabbed Wheeler's grounder off the key stone sack and threw the runner out at third. Four Runs In Sixth. Nothing stirring for us until the big. joyful sixth. Garrett was repaid for his patience and walked, but Ryan fell for three of Gray's wind caroms. Raftery walked and Danzig punctured the ozone with a safe blfflet. With three on the way stations, Bassey spanked out a two bagger that went so far out in the lot that all three runners scored. Johnson's infield grass-trimmer escaped Smith and Delmas. hit Ellis on the bunion and Bas sey scored. Johnson got down to second on a passed ball and then purloined third. It was a brilliant effort, but did not count, for neither McCredie nor Cooney could get the ball but of the inclosure. Anyway, the four runs clinched the game, but just to make it safe, sure and Bane, we bumped two more over in the eighth. Oakes, after a hard run. dropped Danzig's long drive to center. Bassey saw that he got to second by a sacrifice. Ote Johnson wasn't through slamming out two-baggers, so he rapped out an other that Oakes came within a whisker of nabbing. This scored Danzig. John son rambled home when Hogan missed a shot from Oakes. There were a number of familiar faces in the band, and It was only a little over a year ago that Leader Cupero furnished us with music. The large crowd thor oughly enjoyed the cornet solo, played by Mike Cupero. Come again next season and bring the .band. The score: Statistics of Game. LOS ANGELES. A.B. R. H. P.O. A. E.

The Vancouver "Pioneers" proved too strong for the East Portland "Triple X" aggregation yesterday, and In an exciting game played on the Vancouver diamond defeated Hal Pomeroy's braves by the score of 7 to 3. The game was fast and full of sensa tional plays, which caused the Vancouver fans a great deal of satisfaction. Tim Concannon was in prime condition and managed to shoot his curves over in the most mystifying manner. This resulted in Vancouver having easy sailing during the greater part of the game. Gardner, for the East Slders. pitched a good game, but was unlucky in pinches, when Van couver found him for safe hits after his team-mates had contributed several cost ly errors. Sydney Smith, formerly a University of Oregon player, held down second base for the Vancouver club. He took the place made vacant by the desertion of Orlet, who went to the Inland Empire League. Meach, who played short for the "Pio neers," was formerly a member of the crack Monogram team of several seasons ago. The score follows: EAST PORTLAND A.B. R H.F.O. A. E.

BEATS ALL OTHER STATES Gilbert, Who Made Great Pole-Vault Saturday, Will Go to London With SmithsoD Kelly May Be on Team. BY W. J. PETRAIN. Oregon now has three world's champion amateur athletes and two of them are Portland boys. Forrest Smithson is the premier hurdler; Alfred C. Gilbert is the champion pole vaulter, and Dan J. Kel ly's record in the 100-yard dash has not been equalled or surpassed. This Is a better record in athletes than can be boasted of by any other state in the union and if early form counts for anything, Portland and Oregon will some day have another Kelly, for Oliver Huston, of the University of Oregon, promises to become the equal of the Baker City lad in the short sprints. Smithson and Gilbert are Portland boys while Kelly claims the Eastern Oregon city as his home. Smithson and Gilbert are very much in the limelight of pub licity at present, for both of them are to make the trip to London this year for the world's championship Olympic games. It Is also possible that Dan Kelly may go. but he has been handicapped this year by a lame leg and has not yet made anything of a showing in the East. Kelly, however, has a host of friends who will do all in their power to assist him in go ing to London, and if i.ie three lads named compete at London, Oregon will be able to boast of having furnished four men at Olympic, contests. Two years ago H. w. Kerrigan went to Athens as the first Oregon boy to compete against the athletes of every section of the globe. Two Sure of Places. Smithson and Gilbert are certain of places in the ail-American team, and both are men of such tried ability, that bar ring an accident, such as happened to Kerrigan two years ago while enroute to the games, they should prove vie torious. There is no better hurdler In America today than Forrest Smithson, and Gil bert's phenomenal record of 12 feet 73i inches, made Saturday, promises to stand for sometime. Gilbert held the record previously at a height of 12 feet 4 inches, but this was surpassed in a few days. Dray, a fellow athlete of Gilbert's at Yale, and captain of the team, broke that record, and held it until the perform ance of the Oregon boy on Saturday. Gilbert first entered athletics at Pa cific University five or six years ago, where he displayed considerable ability as a valuter and hurdler. He gave up the latter event to make a specialty of vaulting, and Is still the holder of the Pacific Northwest pole vault record at 11 feet 74 Inches. His recent record In Just exactly one foot higher than the mark he has set for the Northwest ath letes. Smithson, the Portland boy who per formed In cuch a creditable manner throughout the East last Fall and Winter, succeeded in retaining his laurels in the high hurdles at Saturday's meet in Port land. On this occasion he came very close to equalling the world's record held by himself of 15 1-5 seconds for this, the 120-yard hurdles. Smithson's thtne Sat urday was 15 2-5, and had it not been for the turn at the finish he undoubtedly would have equalled his world's mark. Kelly In Broad Jump. Dan Kelly's best chance to make the London team is as the American represen tative in the broad jump. In this de partment he has always been able to maintain his supremacy over the present day athletes. While he has not yet equalled the world's record jump, made by Meyer Prinstein eight years ago, ho has frequently come very closely t-j doing so. Kelly is undoubtedly the premier broad jumper and in addition can be ex pected to make a showing In the sprints if he is in condition. Dan Kelly 100-yard dash, 8 3-5 seconds.

PORTLAND RAILWAY, LIGHT AND POWER CO. FIRST AND ALDER STS. Chit-Chat of Sporting World BY. WILL G. MAC RAE. CJDITOR CHIT-CHAT: What is the difference between a baseball fan and a baseball bug? J. M. C. Salem. One is a student of the game, knows in side baseball when he sees it and roots when a good play is pulled off on either side. The bug never has and never will understand the game. He hollers his head off every time the home player makes an error and yells his head off when an outfielder catches an easy fly. If you want'to sit next to a dead wise baseball fan, a man whose voice Is al ways full of encouragement, no matter how bad things are breaking for the horn', team, and no matter how far they are behind. Just perch beside Billy Pangle. He is the best rooter In town and you never hear him scold because some player makes an error or dumps a bone headed plav into the game. It s always, "Never mind; we'll get it back next in ning.'" Speaking of real fans, bogus fans, hugs and crabs, Portland is lucky in having a majority of the real article. You can always tell the bogus fan and the bug from the real article. One, if he says anything, is there with the en couragement salve, while the others yap their heads oft and think it Is smart. Patrons of a baseball game leave their charity at home. When liob Kitz siminons wus Introduced in Salt day's game he received an ovation. When he made a couple of off-colored decisions he was toasted to a fare-you-well. Because Casey was out of the game Danzig was forced to put on his uni form yesterday. The big fellow, in spite of a very sore side, accepted 15 chances and worked into an assist. He was there with a couple of birglts and made the circuit of the ! fts?s three times. By playing a great game at second Ote Johnson showed tii ? tans that he was as Sood an all-aiouvd inli:ldcr as there is in the league. His two games at first were not to be sneezed at. In the sixth inning Jepse Garrett re tired two men by pitching seven balls. He struck out Jud Smith with three pitched balte and got two strikes on Ellis with the next two. Ellis then fouled and with the seventh ball flew out to Raftery. Garrett said after the game If it handn't been a corking hot day he would not have lasted four inning.s because his shoulder was so lame. A fw days like yesterday ought to put McCredie's pitching staff in fine shape. Every player had the first chiince to enjoy a good sweat without running chances of getting stiffened up during the innings.
