BT W. J. PETKAIN.
A pood panning- sometimes does a
ball club a great deal of good. The
riot act read o the members of the
Portland squad hy Manager McCredie
after the Tuesday fiasco, brought Im
mediate results, for the boys gingered
up and trimmed the Seals yesterday
in the most pleasing manner. The
final score was 7 to 4, Rnd the frisky
visitors got off in the lad at that.
Brother Joe Corbett started the
game, and our own Jesse Garrett was
delegated to the firing line by Mc
Credie. Jesse had it on the former
Baltimore star in several different
ways, and what the Portland players
did not do to his offerings cannot be
found in baseball lore. Joe had bad
luck as well, for several bingles cred
ited to Portland batsmen would ordi
narily result in the sit down act, but
went as safe hits because the Seal
infield was caught napping.
During the first and second innings
Portland collected seven hits and four
runs, and during the same period San
Francisco received credit for three
runs and two hits, though one of these
was a rank error, the ball rolling be
tween Johnson's legs.
Seals Gather In Two.
Roily Zelder opened the game with
a hit to Olson who had not gotten over
his stage fright, and the resulting
fumble placed the ever-dangerous Seal
on first. Mohler sacrificed, and when
Tennant sent the one through John
son. Zelder scored because Speas hit
the runner' in the back. Ping Bodie,
who secured the only legitimate hits
Garrett allowed, then hit for two bases,
scoring Williams.
For Portland, Ryan and Olson were
stowed away, but McCredie's boys re
fused to quit, and Speas waited long
enough to worry Brother Joe into issu
ing a pass. McCredie followed with a
nice single past Zelder, and Ote John--son
laced one over second base, chas
ing in Speas. Breen ended the inning
with a pop-up.
Olson's second error put Berry on
in the second, the wild heave sent
Claude to midstation. McArdle's sac
rifice bunt and Corbett's long sacri
fice fly scored the catcher. With a two
run handicap against them. Portland
appeared to have but a slim chance,
but the boys went after Corbett and
more than evened matters up.
Ed Kennedy opened" the inning by
dumping one at Zeider. who was not on
the job and Ed was safe. Armbruster
flew to Bodie. but Garrett singled to
enter, and when Buddy Ryan beat out
Zoider's throw of his bunt. Kennedy
scored from second. Olson followed
the example of the other players, and
bunted along the third base line, but
Corbett fell on the ball and Ivor was
safe. In the meantime Garrett was
caught off second and declared out by
Toman.
Corbett Is Forced Out.
. With Ryan and Olson on the paths.
Bpears connected for a clean hit which
scored both runners and netted him
three sacks. Corbett lost his range
finder on McCredie, and when the tall
manager was passed, Corbett was aero
planed in favor of a young chap named
Eastley. Johnson hit the first ball
the youngster pitched, but the long
fly was gathered In by Bodie, and the
home guard was retired with three
runs and five hits for the inning, as
well as having a four to three lead
over the Seals.
Garrett hit Bodie in the third, but no
core resulted, while in the home
guards" half trouble was started for
Kastley. With Breen on ice. Kennedy
hit .to Mohler. and the Kid's wild heave
pave lid life at first. Armbruster
walked, and when Berry threw the
ball away, Kennedy scored and Buster
took second. Garrett placed another
safe one in center, which Williams
tried hard to get. but failed and Arm
bruster registered, swelling Portland's
total to six.
A pass to Zeider, his steal of second,
and Bodie's drive, which bounded over
Ityan's head and went for three bases.
gave the Seals their fourth and last
run of the game.
Kastley Prevents More Runs.
Toung Estley did some swell pitch
ing in Portland's half of this inning,
for Johnson walked and singles by
Breen and Kennedy filled the bases
with none out, and the youngster got
out of the hole unscathed. Armbruster
forced Johnson at the plate, McArdle
making a beautiful stop and throw,
while Garrett fanned and Ryan was out
at first.
In the sixth, however, Portland put
another across after two men were out.
With Olson and Speas under cover.
MoCredio hit for three sacks, and
Johnson's single sent the manager over
the register. Breen also singled in this
inning, but Kennedy was morgued by
another pretty play on the part of Mc
Ardle.
After that second inning Olson liv
ened up and played the best kind of
ball. He vied with McArdle on one
of his chances, and with the other he
started one of the prettiest double
plays seen .on the home lot this sea
son and which closed the Seals out in
the ninth inning.
Yesterday's game demonstrates that
the Portland team can give the speedy
San Francisco team a run for the
money without trouble, and if the boys
will continue to play gingery Pail,
fiiore Is do reason whjr they, should
not take the series yet. However, they
will have to hustle to do so, for the
Mohlerites are on their toes continually
and are hard to beat.

VANCOUVER, B. C, May 5. (Spe
cial.) A batting rally in the fifth in
ning completely swamped Portland to
day, Vancouver scoring five runs in
this chapter and winning the game by
a score of 7 to 1.
A. walk and Quigley's error gave the
visitors their lone run in the eighth
inning. Gilligan held Portland to five
hits, including one double, but he kept
them scattered and should have scored
a shutout. At times he was erratic,
but was accorded perfect support, the
Champions getting away with two fast
double plays that cut off runs. The
hitting of the Champions was their
only redeeming feature. In the first
six innings they found Guyn for seven
safe drives, including two triples and
two homeruns, scoring all seven runs
off Guyn, who was supplanted by
Carnes In the seventh inning.
In the succeeding innings Carnes
held Vancouver to one hit, being very
effective. Vancouver got an early start,
scoring one in the third and another
in the fourth on three-base drives by
Davis and Sugflen. In the fifth inning
Mahon drove two in with his homerun
and Brooks followed with another to
the same place, scoring three runs.
Pearl Casey, manager of the Port
land team, who has been out of the
game for a few days, was back at
seconft today.
In the ninth inning a foul tip caught
Catcher Brooks on the- finger and he
'was forced to retire, Joe Sugden going
behind the bat.

ager H. V. Wexler, of the former team.
The strength of the State College track
team this year was demonstrated in
Saturday's meet with the University
of Idaho, but comparatively little 4s
known here about the Oregon team.
Wolf and Halm will undoubtedly make
a hard race in the weights, with Hall,
of ft A. C. assisting In the hammer
event. Chapman, of O. A. C, against
Captain Putman and John Dalquist In
the jumps and the pole vault will
make a good contest, and the Oregon
institution is reputed to have & -man
in the sprints who is exceeding fast.
With Nelson clipping off the 100 in
9 4-5 and Lowry and Coe close on his
heels, both in this event and in the 220
and 440, however, W. S. C has noth
ing to fear in this department. Their
star distance man will have to face
Cooil, now holder of the Northwest
records in the mile and two mile runs,
and Johnson, who tied Edmundson'8
record in the half mile.

LINCOLN BOYS BEATEN
LET WASHINGTON HIGH BU1TA
IX THEM FROM START.
Score Is 6 to 3 in Game Made Lively
by Rooters Horde From
Both Schools.
A balloon ascension in the first inning
on the part of the Lincoln High School
yesterday afternoon in the game played
between the Lincoln and the Washington
High Schools resulted in the loss of the
game to the former by the score of 6 to
3. The fireworks started with the first
three men up, who made three consecu
tive runs. Jones, the first man to bat,
was given a base on balls. Cason made
a hit out to center and Briggs hit a pop
fly, which was muffed by Thompson, the
pitcher for Lincoln. That put the rest
of the team into the air, and before it
had dropped back to earth again the
Washingtons had made three runs and
had three other men on bases. Errors
galore were made in this inning.
In the first half of the third inning
Lincoln attempted to retaliate and regis
tered twice before the side was out, leav
ing two men on bases. One of the runs
was due to an error by obb, who dropped
a short fly when there were two men out.
In the fourth inning Washington got
busy again and registered two more. Lin
coln scored -one in the sixth and Wash
ington another in the seventh. The last
run of Lincoln was due to another error
by Cobb while a man was on third base.
Cobb was in bad form, making two er
rors and striking out twice.
Houck, for Washington, was a whirl
wind in the box, striking out 12 men,
as well as making one of the two -baggers.
Thompson improved after the first
inning. He struck out four men.
Rivalry between the two High Schools
caused a large turn-out of rooters, and
the grandstand was also lively with High
School girls, who lent considerable aid In
the school yells. ' The Washington band,
consisting of ten pieces, was also pres
ent, and with popular ballads cheered its
team on to victory.
