If poor playing and bad judgment could
have put Portland In last place yester
day. Instead of only to third, they would
curely have landed there. Some of the
jilays irere not u good as a second-class
Jiigh. school team could make, and the
poor Judgment shown by the manage
ment In changing pitchers so often was
sittle short of childish. What the Port
land team needs is a little life and some
rood, straight talks to the players.
Portland has good pitchers and as good
sot of players Individually as there Is
In the league. It s spirit and fight that
are lacking, and until these two essen
tials are drilled Into the players they
will go on losing the majority of the
tames and games that ought and could
i won. too. The people who are loyal
rooters and pay good money to go to the
ames do not mind when a player occa
sionally makes an absurd error, even
should it prove costly, but when three
outfielders In one game allow singles to
slip between their feet and count for
doubles and triples, and catchers fall to
Jiold throws made to the plate, and the
captain of the team holds onto the ball
while a man- runs from third to home;
then one wonders whether the team
cares whether it wins, or what Is the
matter. Batters should run out their
hits to first, too, even though the ball
goes right into the first baseman's hands.
Good ball teams are not made by star
players nearly so much as they are by
team work and spirit in working together.
Beavers In Bad Slump.
Portland has gotten into a slump from
which It must wake up or finish m last
place, and it Is up to the management
to make an effort. Buying new Players
will not do it necessarily. It s work that
Is needed, and good headwork. When a
team in one of the Eastern leagues gets
in a slump, the men are taken out to the
-rounds In the mornings and coached
thoroughly, being made to see the Impor
tance of work and having Instilled into
them the desire to do better.
Yesterday's double-header went to Oak
land by scores of 10-7 and 7-6. The homers
outbatted the visitors In the first game,
but lost through errors and opportune
Jilts by the visitors. Patrick started in
to pitch like a whtrlwjnd and looked
mighty good for three inning. In the
fourth, after hitting Eagan. he allowed
a single, a walk and a two-bagger, scor
ing three runs. He steadied down in the
fifth and put the side out in order, but
in the sixth one run was scored on a
base on balls, a sacrifice and a single.
Patrick looked a little unsteady at this
point and Garrett was sent in. although
it would probably have been better to
have let Patrick continue.
Portland Has Rally.
Portland had grabbed three in the sec
ond by good stick work. Kaftery started
be Inning by walking and Bassey fol
lowed with a single. Madden brought
them both home with a pretty three
bagger and scored himself a minute later
on Patrick's single. The McCredle tribe
could get no more until the eighth, when
Madden again drove in a run with a
single, and in the meantime Oakland had
taken the lead by getting four runs off
came to bat with an almost
impossible task, needing six runs to Ue.
and made a valiant finish. Casey walked.
Ryan doubled, and Johnson knocked a
long fly to outfield, scoring Casey. Dan
slg followed with a two-bagger, scoring
yt van. and he scored a minute later on
Raftery's singte. It began to look bad for
Pitcher Hardy, but he put on a little
more speed and got the next two men.
Lewis made a sensational catch in
the fifth of Johnson's liner. He
Jumped in the air and pulled it down
with one hand, saving two runs.
Rose began throwing the benders in
the second game with Louckes oppos
ing him. After the first two men were
out hits by Heltmuller, Eagan and Slat
tery scored two and gave the Oak
landers a promising start for the sec
ond game. Portland came back with
two in the second on Raftery's base
on balls. Bassey's double and Madden's
fly to outfield. The home talent added
one more In the third on Casey's sin
gle, a sacrifice and Johnson's hit, giv
ing them the lead for a minute. The
Callfornlans won the game In the
fourth by driving; In four runs. Slat
tery hit a pretty Texas leaguer over
short. La Longe doubled, Houston dou
bled, Danzig dropped Loucke's difficult
pop Cy and Cooke knocked a two-bag-gtr
After this Portland ran last the
rest of the game and finished two be
hind. A feature of the fifth Inning1 was
Houston's double play unassisted.
Lett Is and Heltmuller each made sev
ere! Use punning catches.
The crowd was too big for the grrand
rtar.i and by the fifth inning of the
flrat ,game ground rules were neces
sary, limiting a hit into the crowd to
nro bases.
Los Angeles comes Tuesday for. a
two weeks' series and here's hoping
tut whars the use.

WOT KNOWN TO DIRECTORS i fl
Fans Realize That Only Boaxd Can
Alter Circuit and Want North
ern, Rather Than Southern,
End Extended.
Who Is the head of the Pacific Coast
League. Cal Ewins; or the directors of
the league? This question naturally
presents itself because of recent ac
tions by Mr. .Ewing. president of the
league. Agitation has been rife for
some time concerning the future make
up of a league for the Pacific Coast
and assertions have been made from
different quarters which in many in
stances not only were unofficial, but
bordered at times on (the ridiculous.
This has all been very confusing to
the public and no one has been able
to form a definite idea as to Just what
would be done.
The situation Is this: Everyone Is
agreed that the present four-club league
la unsatisfactory; not all can agree as to
the best combination to form. Seattle Is
holding out for Portland to come back
Into the Northwestern League, and the
Southern cities want a six-club league
with five California towns and Portland
as the northern extremity. Portland
seems to be the contested point and Judge
W. W. McCredle. owner of the club,
wants neither plan that has been offered.
He argues that the Northwest has grown
to such an extent and has sufficient
population to warrant an eight-club
league composed of four southern and
four northern cities. This seems the
probable outcome of the tangle, as It
would create a rivalry between the
north and the south that would tend to
draw more people than any other com
bination possible.
That nothing- definite ha3 been done
Is certain, and the reported action of
Mr. Ewing and Henry Berry in grant
ing franchises to two southern cities
for a six-club league is no more valid
than if it hadn't happened. Any move
like that would have to be acted on
and approved by a majority of the di
rectors of the league and they will not
meet until December, at which time the
matter of a ne league for next year
will be taken up. The magnates of
the Northwest League will also be
present and the whole matter will be
threshed out then. Until then nothing
definite can .be done.

How to Subdue a Rooster. "
Montelalr (N. J.) Dispatch to New York
Times.
Rubber tires for trolley cars, muzzles
for crowing roosters and mufflers for
automobile horns were discussed at the
meeting of the Montelalr Town Council
last night, when a long petition asking
that the noisy roosters, ducks and geese
of the town be suppressed was presented.
Chief of Police Harry Gallagher re
ceived a communication from a man at
Beverly. Mass.. who wishes to aid the
anti-noise crusade. He told the chief
that a sure way to stop the roosters from
crowing Is to place them on roosts that
will not allow them to stand upright In
their coeps. He say? that roosters can
not crow when compelled to stand in a
crouching position.
