WORLD'S RECORDS BROKEN
(Continued from First Pace. )
of the Americans in the tlnals of this
event, which will be run tomorrow.
Through their defeat by Bhephard and
Sullivan, Halstead and Lightbody
failed to qualify. S. L. Coe of the
Vniverslty of Michigan, made a strong
hid for victory in the fourth heat, but
he was unable to keep up with E.
Loney. of England, although the time
was not particularly brilliant. Coe
finished second.
The -other American, F. H. Blley, of
the Irish-American Athletic Club, ran
unplaced in this heat, the third, which
was that in which Hallow made the
record.
Gathering of Royalty.
Shortly after 3 o'clock in the after
noon the royal box. which had been
fitted up for the accommodation of 40
persons, began to up, the early ar
rivals including the Crown Prince and
Princess of Sweden and their children,
the Crown Prince and Princess of
Greece, the Duke and Duchess of Con
naught and the Duke and Duchess of
Argyl. A short time afterwards the
playing of the national anthem by a
band of the Grenadier Guards an
nounced the arrival of King Edward.
Queen Alexandra and Princess Victoria
with their suites, who had been driven
in state from Buckingham Palace. Lord
Desborough, chairman of the council
of the British Olympic Association,
welcomed their Majesties at the en
trance to the Stadium and presented
the members of the Olympic Council.
As the King entered the royal box
a bugler gave a signal, the gates
leading to the competitors quarter
flew open and the athletes marched
out under the banners of their respect
ive nations. The procession was formed
in alphabetical order, Austria leading,
with the exception that the English
speaking races came last. This latter
section was led by an American team,
with Garrels. of tne Chicago Athletic
Association, at its head, carrying the
Stars and Stripes. The British colonies
were directly behind the Americans,
- nd at the end vaa the. United Kingdom
contingent. The procession came into
the Stadium, each country receiving
applause, America and the colonies
being greeted warmly by the audience.
Before the arrival of King Edward,
the athletes paraded around the
grounds.
The representatives of the United
Kingdom looked formidable with their
513 men. The nearest approach to
this number was France, with 219.
Sweden came next with 169. and
then Hungary with 154 men. The
Americans have the next largest army
with 148, but Trainer Murphy refused
to allow all the men to come up fr
the ceremony, insisting that they re
main at their quarters at Brighton un
til called upon for more serious work
in all 2J countries were represented
and among that gathering Turkey was
represented with one competitor.
The athletes having taken up posi
tions facing the royal box, the Amert-v
cans in the center, flanked by the Cana
dians and the Englishmen, Lord Des
brough marched up with the members
of the executive committee and said:
"Will your Majesty graciously de
clare the Olympic games opened?"
In reply the King said:
"I declare the Olympic games of Lon
don open."
Americans Tower Above All.
At -the completion of this ceremony
cheering broke out from all parts of
the Stadium. After the demonstration
had died down the athletes gave three
cheers for his Majesty, and then
marched past the royal box. The men
made a splendid appearance, though
unfortunately the weather prevented
all the competitors from coming out in
athletic costume. Tne Americans were
among- those who wore street clothing,
but even thus attired the size of the
men evoked much favorable comment,
Ralph Rose, of the Olympic Club, San
Francisco, and Lee G. Talbot, of the
Irish-American Athletic Club, New
York, and the other giants of the team
towering over a majority of those
whom they are to meet. Only 50 mem
bers of the American team were in
the parade, and this contingent ap
peared small beside those teams repre
senting the United Kingdom, and some
of the continental countries, but never
theless their reception was enthusias
tic, as large parties of Americans had
reserved sections of the stand, Etnd
when the team passed cheered them
and waved the Stars and Stripes.
An incident which Is causing much talk
In sporting circles is the failure of the
Olympic committee to have either the
American or the Swedish flag displayed in
the Stadium. The Americans offset this
omission somewhat by bringing out some
of their own Stars and Stripes, but Swe
den, although Crown Prince Gustav was
present, was represented by but a single
Hag carried by that nation's athletes.

HARD NUTTD GRAGK
Los Angeles Team Comes for
Six-Game Series.
GRANEY WILL MAKE DEBUT
McCredie's-j Xew Southpaw to Open
Against Angel Band This After
noon Most of Crippled Bea
Ters Have Recovered.
Captain Frank Dillon and Hen Berry's
hustling bunch of balltossers". fresh from
a victorious two weeks' set-to with the
cellar champs, will arrive in Portland this
morning and at 3:30 o'clock this after
noon a six-game series between the two
leading clubs. Portland and Los Angeles,
will be inaugurated on the Vaughn
street lot.
Pitcher Jack Graney, the new southpaw
twirler secured from the Cleveland Amer
ican League team, will make his debut
as a Portland slabster, and, unless
Frank Dillon Is still incapacitated by his
Sunday morning accident. George Wheel -er
will probably be delegated to slab It
for the Angels. Wheeler, in spite of his
advanced age (no Joke, George Is 48 years
old), seems to have gained a new lease
of life since joining Los Angeles, and is
pitching as good ball as Hans Hosp or.
"Adonis" Nagle, the kids of the Southern
team.'
At any rate, the contests this week
should prove decidedly Interesting, for
Portland is anxious to regain the lead and
the Angels are desirous of evening up the
score for the walloping given them at
Los Angeles some weeks ago.
Hen Berry's bunch simply waded
through the Athenians like ducks through
ai puddle of mud. and when they wound
up the two weeks' series Oakland had
graced the win column on only three oc
casions out of 14. and two of these vic
tories were scored at the commencement
of the series. Los Angeles has therefore
won 11 out of the last 12 games, and can
therefore be figured as a hard team to
stop.
However, Manager McCredte and his
cohorts are confident of at least making
the Angels hesitate, and it is barely pos
sible that, with a sufficient quota of good
luck breaking our way, the home team
can get away with a majority of the
series. Bobby Groom will not be able to
pitch until the latter end of the week, but
Hal Danzig will be back in the game,
possibly this afternoon, and this will give
McCredie the services of Marshall as
twirler, and also Johnson, in case Mao
decides to use the heavy batsman as a
slab artist Instead of a regular fielder.
Jesse Garrett has rounded to shape nicely
and he will be able to go against the An
gels for the first time since their last trip
to Portland, for during the Los Angeles
series the little fellow was ill and unable
to play.
Today 'a game will start promptly at 3:30,
and fandom will be there in force to wit
ness the first appearance of Graney.

BY W. J.' PETRAIN.
THB Seals got away with the series,
- but when one remembers that Port
land contributed 24 errors In the six
games,' it is a wonder that the home
team secured even one game.
'
Los Angeles is coming North with a
fairly good lead and it is up to the
Portland team to repeat its past per
formances against this club and the Mc
Credie horde can displace the Dillon-
Ites rrom the lead.
Dillon's crew certainly had the voodoo
sign on the Greeks for Los Angeles
hooked 11 out of the 14 games played
during the past two weeks. Oakland
seems shy of reliable pitchers, for in
each of the games the Angeles batted
like fiends.
A woman's baseball team Is coming
to Portland; the manager is already on
the ground. Some of the players must
have eloped for the team is advertising
for additions to the ranks. There are
some fool girls in this town who will
probably answer the ad and secure a
tryout.
Ote Johnson distinguished himself Sun
day in several different ways. In
the first place he pulled oft two nifty
fielding plays, one of which was a one
handed catch of Zelder's hot drive, then
he butted into the error column and
gave the Seals a chance on the bases.
His two-ply swat, scoring Klnsella. how
ever, evened matters up.
After he was banished in the fifth.
Kid Mohler became as meek as a lamb
and sat throughout the rest of the game
without uttering a word. .The only re
grettable part of the episode Is that
Mohler was not chased oftener during
the week. The umpire certainly had
provocation enough to send him to the
cooler on several occasions.
The new pitcher, Graney, will be on
the firing line against Los Angeles this
week; and unless Bobby Groom is con
fined to his bed for an Indefinite period,
Graney may again mount the hilltop
on Sunday. He would have been sent
against the Seals Sunday but Man
ager McCredie desired to save him for
the Angels, who are shy at left-handers.
Scout O'Brien was present at Sunday's
game, and strange to relate, both games
he has witnessed were not edifying ex
hibitions. It may be that the players
were on the nervous seat at the thought
of their being drafted into fast com
pany at the beck of the Cleveland agent.

HITCH ON FARE TO BIG FIGHT
Klckard Strikes Snag In Getting Re
duction' From Utah.
SAN FRANCISCO. Cal., Julv 13.
(Special.) Tex Rlckard. the Nevada
fight promoter, said today that the Nel
son and Gans fight at Ely on Labor
day now hangs on the decision of one
railroad as to reduced rates from Og
den and Salt Lake. The Southern Pa
cific has agreed to make a one-way
rate for the round trip on all its lines
west of Ogden. and the Western Pacific
also has made favorable rates. But
one line wants $8 for the round trip
from Ogden and Salt Lake, which Rlck
ard says Is prohibitive. With a J5 rate
for this trip and 5 admission, he is
sure he could get from 2000 to 3000
sports from Ogden and Salt Lake, as
suring the financial success of the fight.
These sports, however, would not pay
8 fare and $5 for a ticket.
Packey McFarland is still here wait
ing for the Gans-Nelson fight to fall
through so that he may get a chance
at Nelson.

Spectators at Ball Game at American
Lake Take Revenge for Of
ficial's Decisions.
TACOMA, Wash., July 13. (Special.)
S. G. Thompson, proprietor of the City
Laundry, acted as umpire in a ball game
yesterday at American Xake. between the
laundrymen and the campers, and as a
consequence, in the last half of the ninth
Inning, on account of what the campers
termed his "rotten" decisions, he was
carrried from the field and thrown bodily
into the lake.
The unfortunate umpire's wife followed
the enraged campers and remonstrated
in -her husband's behalf. Her entreaties
evidently fell on deaf ears, for they
soused the pleading woman into the lake
with her husband.
Fortunately the water was only about
four feet deep and by a good deal of
scrambling, they managed to wade out.
Thompson took the ducking good-naturedly.
Murdered Girl Is Hazel Drew.
TROY, N. T., July 13. The body of the
young woman found Saturday floating In
Teal's Pond' was identified as that of Miss
Hazel I. Drew, daughter of John Drew, of
this city. Identification was made through
a brooch which was found on the bank
and a hatpin found in a black straw on
the shore 20 feet from the spot where the

Again Decided She Was Not Laclede

from Paris announcing that passenger
steamships refused to transport Henry
Farman's aeroplane to America is record

of the races were confident last night that
some way would be found to carry out
the programme as announced.
