SAN FRANCISCO. April 7. (Special.)
Oakland beat the. Beavers today. 6 to 1.
It was a slow name, because the players
made It so, and uninteresting because the
Oaks took a lead of five runs off Pitcher
liarknrss It, the first Inning, a lead that
altogether too much to overcome.
Haikness was responsible for his own
downfall. He gave away four hits, one
of which was a double, passed one man
and made two wild throws to first base.
McCredle substituted Scaton, who made
a creditable debut.
Ryan, who reached first on a walk In
the opening Inning, allowed himself to be
ranght napping In the most bone-headed
fashion, and the next two visitors were
easy outs. In the same Inning the Com
muters did their worst. Murphv walked
and stole second. Truesdale laid down a
bunt that he boat out. and Murphy scored
because Harkness tossed the ball over
Kennedy's head at firs. McCay sacrificed
Truesdale along, and Cameron scored the
second baseman with a Texas leaguer.
Breyette tried for a sacrifice that was
again thrown wild by Harkness. and
Cameron scored the third run. Duffey
J-ewls' drive to the right field fence put
Breyette across the pan. and with Carroll
out. Mickey I.a Ixmge hit one to the
score board for two bases that tallied
Lewis.
Beaton scored theonly Portland run. It
was In the third Inning, when he singled
to right, stole second, was advanced on
Olson's single past third, and came home
on Ort's long sacrifice fly to left field.
In the same Inning a two-base drive
by Duffey Lewis scored Breyette, who
was on first, and that was the end of the
active work.
The score:

Select 14 Players From 40 "Who
Report on Oregon Diamond.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene.
Or.. April 7. tSpeclal.) -Father Tom"
Kelly, baseball coach at the university
and an old Northwestern League
player baa chosen a first team squad
of 14 players from the 40 men trying
for positions.
Tom Word, the heady pitcher for
Lincoln High School during the sea
sons of 190&-8-7. has donned a
catcher's mask and was chosen from
among the other aspirants for that
place. In "Father Tom's" estimation
th competitors for the initial bag po
sition hae narrowed themselves to
two southpaw Portland freshmen
Homer Jameson and William Stevens.
Jameson played on Lincoln High
School's champion teams during the
last two years. Stevens has played
ball at Cove in Eastern Oregon. R
Is a son of Jasper Stevens, who cap
tained the first team nt-A0nn -
away back in the '70s. Kelly has a
great weakness lor left-handed first
basemen. Curtis Coleman and Dad Clark will
hold down the , positions of second
base and shortstop. Both were mem
bers of last year's team. Clark has
been given the shortstop place. Third
bae has been assigned to Mackenzie,
captain of last year's second team.
The pitching staff, as It now stands,
contains the two veteran southpaw
pitchers. Captain Hurd and Henkle. a
Portland boy, and the two right
handers. Van Marter and Nelson. Hurd
and Henkle, both members of last
Spring's team, are hard to beat as
ball twisters. The new men. Nelson, a
junior and former second-team pitch
er, and Van Marter. a Lebanon fresh
man, are both showing good form.
Hayes and Gabrielson are the two
probables aa utility men. Hayes is a
Portland boy and an old H. M. A.
player. He was sub on the varsity
nine last season. Gabrielson has
played star ball for the Salem High
School team.
"Father Tom's" plan Is to play one
of the pitchers in the outfield. The
other two outfield positions are filled

"""L .cep manager Casey s hired
men from being a most important fig
ure in the race for the Lucas rag this
Summer. The team that he has sur
rounded himself with is as well bal
anced as that playing under Manager
McCredie. and if the pitchers turn out
as it Is hoped they will. Casey will. In
my opinion, be more strongly fortified
with curve-mixers than the other team.
Portland fans know what big Ed Kin
sella can do, and I look for him to be
better this season than ever before.
The big fellow has his eyes fixed on
the big bushes, and he's going up sure.
Ptnnance looks 100 per cent better this
season than he did last. He has taken
on some weight and has filled out a lot.
he has been careful of his arm since
he left the team last season, and says
it is as strong as ever. Chlnault is
a whale in size and has the speed of a
Russe. If he can keep his control de
partment working, he will be a wonder
up through the Northwest bushes.
Carnes is another husky whose only
weakness is lack of control. . Both
Carnes and Chlnault are putting ln
hard stunts daily, working for their
control and speed, and neither of them
have attempted to pitch a curved ball.
Araei is the only sprout on the team.
The youngster will need some coach

report. He must be some twirler. for
Walter McCredie is getting ready to
hook him and give Casey either. Willett

spoken yet. and won't until he sees
Guyn In action. Pender will be carried
because he Is a southpaw.
.
The three Jacks will make up the
outfield. It will be three daisies to
draw to, these three Jacks. There will
be Jack Bassey, Jack Garibaldi and Jack
Swanton. All of the Jacks are good
fielders, all are just a trifle above the
average with the bat. and every one of
them is speedy on the bases. A glance
over the other outfielders in the league
doesn't show them to have anything
on Casey's men.
a
It will be some time before Casey's
infield will be a smooth-working bit of
machinery, but every day it gets into
action there is evidence of a decided
improvement in the work. Now that
Mullen's muscles are getting limbered
up. he is moving around faster and
covering more ground around first.
Staton alse is showing better form,
and if Cooney Isn't by long odds the
best shortstop in the Lucas colony,

Troeh is the same kind of material,
only I don't think he has the same cool,
level head on his shoulders. Behind
the bat Troeh Is plenty cool, but he is
a little flighty when on the bases, and
he hasn't been taught the art of run
ning bases to the best advantage.

Some friends of Bassey sent him two
packages of Limburger cheese the
other day. Clerk Wood, at the Nash
Hotel, where the players are staying,
did not know what the package con

It was not long before the cheese
scented things up, and they came near

BIG MATCH ON TONIGHT
TREJ1BLAV AXD O'CONNEJjIi TO
MEET OX EVEN TERMS.
Canadian Believes He Will Win, but
Expects One of the Hardest Con
tests of Ilia Career.
Eugene Tremblay. the Canadian light
weight wrestling champion, who is to
meet Eddie O'Connell at the Exposition
Rink tonight, arrived in Portland yester
day morning. Tremblay Is accompanied
by his manager. George Kennedy, of Buf
falo, X. Y., one of the most successful
wrestling promoters in America, and a
man who has charge of a string of cham
pions and near champions of all weights.
In addition to Tremblay. Kennedy man
ages the destinies of Yousouff Mahmout.
the big Turk who wrestles Frank Qotch
on April 14 at Chicago; Hjalmar Lundin,
who recently met Dr. B. F. Roller at
Seattle, and Raoul de Rouen, the big
Frenchman, as well as several other lesser
lights.
Kennedy has been more than success
ful in the wrestling game, for he has had
the faoillrv nf nloblno. j .
rf kuuu men ana
matching them with grapplers in their
class. In Tremblay, Kennedy saye he has
the prize of all, for the lightweight is a
drawing card wherever "he goes, and the
fact that he has maintained superiority
for over two years adds to the interest
in his work. Tremblay is a quiet young
fellow, who makes no boasts and does not
assert that he is going to bend O'Connell
double. He merely says that he thinks
he can beat the Multnomah Instructor,
and adds that he will at least do his best.

the best men in the country and. while the
lflttAI la Ik . 1 1 . . . .
... a, ucuvier aivision, iremoiay
states that he will weigh about the same
as will O'Connell tonight.
Speaking of wrestling and of the pros
pects both of tonight s match and wres
tling in general, Kennedy said last night:
"I have heard a great deal about Port
land, and have known of Eddie O'Connell
for something like four years, but have
never seen him until tonight. I have
long desired to match Tremblay with
him, but somehow or other we could
never meet and perfect arrangements for
a date. O'Connell is the only good East
ern grappler whom Tremblay has not yet
met and defeated, and I hope to see him
accomplish this tomorrow night. How
ever, we are not counting our chickens
before they are hatched, and Gene may
have his work cut for him when he gets
O'Connell on the mat.
"I look for a great match, and from
what "I learn of Portland and its
wrestling fans. I believe all will be thor
oughly satisfied with the bout. The
wrestling game has become very popular
all oyer the country, and whenever good
men like O'Connell and others, who have
appeared here, give the fans a run for
their money, the game prospers Im
mensely, it is now a hard matter for
the fakers to get on any place, because
the people are too wise to patronise men
who discredited the game in years
gone by.
"Today, there are many first-class
wrestlers who are making good money,
simply because they have kept clear of
fakes and are giving the people what
they want. The big Frenchman. De
Rouen, Is a mighty drawing card, and I
was very sorry to see him go back to
France. -While he did not win any too
many matches, his powerful physique
and extraordinary strength brought him
popularity. 1 will return to Chicago im
mediately ln order to be on hand when
Mahmout meets Gotch. This match
should be one of the best ever seen, for
the Turk is out to win, and is being pre
pared for this bout with great care "
O'Connell has brought himself down to
143 pounds witnout weakening in the
least, and says that he feels ln better
shape for his bout with Tremblay than
he has for some time. He expects Trem
blay to weight about 142, and will be
on even terms with the Canadian If that
is the case.
