BY W. J. RETRAIN.
Pitcher Jack Graney, erstwhile of Cleve
land, went on the mound for the second
time against the Angels yesterday, and
made good all that had been said about
lilm on the opening; appearance. Fort
land defeated the visitors by the score of
. 4 to 1, making it three In a row from the
league leaders.
Graney's one drawback, his wtldness,
caused the large gathering of fair fans,
for it was ladles' day, to be on the anxious
seat throughout. The former Cleve
lander sent seven Angels to first gratis
and in addition pickled two in the slats.
These exhibitions of liberality caused him
to be in the hole with men on bases in
practically every inning, but when It
came to hitting them out In order to tap
the gong, the Angels were absolutely
helpless. The curves that the new twirl
er did get over the pan were of the un
hlttable variety and in only one inning
was he found for a cluster of blngles,
and one of these was extremely scratchy.
This was the sixth canto, when the visi
tors scored one run that looked as big
as some of Carnegie's library donation
parties. Up to that time Portland had
been unable to connect with Koestner's
delivery for even the semblance of a
safety.
Slaughter Comes in Sixth.
With his team one run to the bad,
Graney opened the sixth for Portland
with a splendid hit to right field. Casey
bunted to advance him, and was also safe
because George Wheeler messed up the
play. Ryan's sacrifice advanced both
runners, and Haftery walked, filling . the
sacks. Johnson tapped one to Delmas,
who obligingly booted the chance long
enough to allow all hands to reach safety,
Graney scoring.
Then Hal Danzig picked out Jud Smith
as his target, and laced one against the
tooth-carpenter's shins which messed Jud
son up completely, and Casey scored while
the bases remained populated. McCredie's
out on a slow bounder to Wheeler chased
Raftery over for the third run. "Mar
quis" Bassey then connected for his first
hit in some time. It was a beauty to left
and Johnson scored.' but "Rube" Ellis
handled the ball beautifully and his throw
to the plate retired Danzig and the side.
The Angels' lone run came about by
Graney's liberality, Bassey's error and
other chance plays. Wheeler led off
with a single, which he stretched for
two bases because Bassey erred on the
chance. Brashear fanned In an attempt
lo bunt Wheeler along. Smith singled,
but Wheeler was held at third. Ryan
failed to get In on Ellis' bunt' quickly
enough and Wheeler scored while the
"Rube" tagged first. Delmas walked
and the paths were loaded with anxious
Angels. "Happy" Hogan attempted to do
his part In a hit and run play, but fanned
nut and Jud Smith tried to score when
Madden threw to Johnson. The Norse
man returned the ball to the plate, and a
, double play was completed. ,
Fast Double In Third.
Another fast double play was pulled
off in the third Inning, when a pass to
Bernard. Oakes' scratchy lilt and the hit
ting of Wheeler by Graney, filled the bags
with one out. Brashear attempted the
bit and run. but smashed to Graney. who
tossed to Madden, retiring Bernard, and
Tom heaved to first ahead of the batter.
Jud Smith butted Into the limelight in
the eighth when he leaped in the air and
pulled down Raftery's drive that was
tagged for a double. This play cut off
two Portland runs, for Graney was on
third and Casey on second, both by vir
tue of safe hits. Tom Raftery had four
chances, three of which were hard run
ning catches that aroused the utmost en
thusiasm among the feminine rooters.
Marshall will probably be given a
chance against the Angels today, although
McCredie may work Garrett If the little
Texan feels right, while "Lefty" Thorsen
will do the honors for the visitors. The
official score follows:

ATHLETIC PARK FOR ASTORIA
Syndicate Leases Ground on Scow
Bay for Purpose.
ASTORIA. Or., July 17. (Special.)
Steps are now being taken in a project
which will insure Astoria being includ
ed in one of the baseball leagues of the
Coast next season. The one drawback
heretofore has been that of suitable
grounds, the present athletic field being
too remote and too far away from a
streetcar line to Insure the games being
patronized.
During the past few days, however,
partv of men headed by one of the
local bankers has leased two blocks In
Scow Bav. which will Be DuiKneaded
and filled in and arranged for basebll
and football grounds and for a general
athletic field.
Jimmy Smith Released.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 17. (Special.)
Jimmy Smith, the Oakland outfielder, was
released today and Cook will hold down
the Job hereafter. Smith has been trou
bled with a bad ahkle since the training
season and is In no shape to play.
BIG MATCH-TODAY
State Tennis Championship to
Be Decided.
SPOKANE MAN TO GET IT
McBurney Will Contend With Tyler,
Fellow Townsman and Present
Holder of Title Spectators
See Fine Contests.
Since it is an absolute certainty that
none of the local tennis-players will
compete in the challenge round; which
takes place this afternoon, much Interest-
FROM
,- comment is being made on the man
jo, by his bulldog grit and endurance,
as forged steadily to the topmost rung
of the tournament ladder, and the man
destined to face -the present state tennie
champion. That man is W. A. McBurney,
of Spokane, and the man he is to meet
is Joe Tyler, also of Spokane.
To render any decided opinion . from a
standpoint of tennis form is a difficult
task, indeed. Both men have shown by
their, playing, 'throughout the tourney,
that they possess all the qualifications
necessary for championship honors. Both
are young, coolheaded, possessing ex
cellent judgment, and both seemingly
have unlimited endurance. Placing the
men side by side the observer would be
impressed with the well-knit forms of
each, the square jaw, an incontrovertible
evidence of tenacity and endurance.
Practically the only advantage at all
evidenced after a close scrutiny is that
McBurney, being the lighter man, should
in consequence be the more agile. The
Oregonian yesterday predicted that the
match would simmer down to McBurney
as the man likely to meet Tyler, and it
is a safe bet that McBurney will wrest
both the Flsk trophy and the state cham
pionship from his opponent.
McBurney Beats Jordan.
The McBurney-Jordan singles, the first
of Friday morning's semi-finals, presented
some decidedly fine tennis features, and
was won by the Spokane man, by reason
of his greater endurance.
The match went to four sets. Jordan
READING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT
'ii 'v'"''-'-i;--'- ''; s'-iiu - !'' - -" " : '' 1 i'"' '' ' j " ''' '' j J ' J.';' ' ' '''' w',. '.f ' ' - '' j-' : :',,,':': -I 'vt: ' '-&fig
took the first with a 7-6 score. McBurney
carried off the other three sets, scoring
12-10. 6-2. 6-0. In the first and second
sets McBurney won only one more point
than Jordan, but In the four' sets the
aggregate number of points was 151 to 123.
Jordan showed just as good backhand
work as ever, but his opponent's staying
powers won the match. Jordan un
questionably has the best service - ever
seen on Portland, courts: even 'McBurney,
old and experienced player that, he is,
was completely fooled by Jordan's peculiar
bound. It is safe to say that with better
endurance and a trifle more steadiness,
Jordan would be the equal of any man in
the Northwest.
Flne Match In Mixed Doubles.
One of the finest exhibitions of pluck
and endurance was witnessed during the
mixed doubles event, the " first of the
afternoon's matches, with Miss Heitshu
and Mr. Goes as opposites to Mrs. Cook
and Mr. McBurney. of Spokane.
McBurney entered this contest under de
cidedly adverse conditions; having had
scarcely a moment's rest after his game
with Jordan. It became necessary on one
or two occasions to dash a bucket of cold
water over his head in order to revive him
so he could continue with the match. He
made several- blundering drives out of
court, for which there was no possible
reason apparent, save that he was sun
dizzy, or else so dog-tired that his judg
ment was temporarily Impaired. At
other times he passed In front of his
partner, Mrs. Cook, taking services which
were rightfully hers.
These actions on his part completely
confused Mrs. Cook, even with her well
known cooi-headedness, with the result
that the match went to their opponents
by a final set score of 8-6.
Miss Heitshu, Instead of remaining In
the back court and driving, was at tha
net continually, and her volleying was,
with the possible exception of Miss Hotch
klss. the best ever seen on a local court
for a woman. Instead of meeting the ball
on a volley as the men do, she had an up
ward stroke a sort of drive which put
so much speed on the ball as to make it
almost impossible for her opponents to
handle.
Mrs. Cook played in her usual good
form, being strong In her drives through
out the entire match, and there is little
doubt that with a trifle more team work,
and McBurnej' a fre6h entree, the honors
would have been theirs.
Freeman-McBurney Match.
The very acme of tennis enthusiasm was
reached in the final event in men's singles
between McBurney and Freeman, the vic
tors in the morning's semi-finals, and
the excited spectators waited with baited
breath for the meeting of these two ten
nis Trojans. A hotly contested match was
what they expected, and they were not in
any way disappointed. The game was
scheduled to come off at 2:30 o'clock P. M.
but, as both men were nearly worn out
by their previous exertions in preced
ing games they did not enter the court
until past 3 o'clock. This match was to
decide which of the two should meet Joe
Tyler for the slate championship honors,
so both men were on their mettle.
At no stage after the first set was the
result in doubt. The first set was a con
stant see-saw, both men endeavoring to
take the net at every opportunity. A
summary of the first set's shots show Mc
Burney leading with by far the largest'
number of clean passes, this showing con
tinued throughout the three sets compris
ing the game. McBurney's back-hand
passing stroke, consistent service, and
brilliant net-play were the principle fea
tures of his playing.'
Freeman was decidedly off on ground
ball, but every now and then worked in
one of his ungettable hand drives, caus
ing his opponent a great deal of worry.
During the match Freeman made five
double faults and McBurney four.
Refreshments were served during the
afternoon by Mrs. F. J. Raley, assisted
by the Misses Hazel Hotchklss. Daisy
Bradford, Myrtle Schaefer, Catharine
. Woodward and Mesdames F, H. V. An
drews and Arch Stewart.

inee. The ex-Clevelander displayed his
ability as a pitcher to the satisfaction
of all present. While his wlldness was
to be regretted in a measure, he more
than made up for it by preventing the
Angels from hitting.
Ote Johnson must have been dis
mayed at the vociferous greeting ex
tended him' on his first appearance at
bat, for he swung three times. Ote
is a bashful fellow anyhow, and the
presence of so many fancy bonnets and
shirtwaists dazzled him.
Captain Frank Dillon, the Angel
leader, was in uniform for the first
time during the week. His injury kept
him on the bench, however, but Frank
was in plain sight of the feminine fans,
and perhaps that helped some.
Many of the fans who witnessed Jud
Smith's pretty catch of Raftery's drive
in the eighth recollected the time when
he performed similar stunts for the
Portland champs of 1906. The Angel
eno third sacker is a most reliable
player, but has fallen off in his bat
ting this season.
Frank Arrelanes, the California phe
nom, started yesterday s American
League game for Boston, but the Chi
cago White Sox got frisk.- with his of
ferings and he was relieved by Cicotte.
Boston won the game and checked
Chicago's spurt for the lead.
Johnson, the Weiser pitcher, now with
Washington, practically gave Cleveland
yesterday's engagement at the National
capital. He walked three men and hit
two, which gave Cleveland an opportun
ity of scoring three runs, which proved
enough to win.
Hughey Jennings' collection of heavy
hitting balltossers from Detroit, made
an American League record yesterday
by scoring 21 runs and registered 25
hits off three Philadelphia .twirlers.
Rube Vickers. fori.erly with Seattle,
started the game, but lasted quick, and
those who relieved him fared but lit
tle better.
