i All Is In Readiness for Opening of
Season Wednesday and I-ioeal
Squad Is Anxious for Fray.
. McCredie VTery Sanguine.
SAN FRAICCTSCO, March 29. (Spe
cial.) All Is In readiness for the open
ing: of the baseball season here tomor
row, when the Portland and San Fran
cisco clubs of the Pacific Coast League
clash in the opening engagement of
the 1910 pennant skirmish.
Similarly, the Oakland and Sacramen
to Clubs will commence the struggle
at the latter town, while Los Angeles
and the Angel City's continuous base
ball appendix. Vernon, will commence
hostilities at the Southern extremity
of the league.
Manager McCredie is confident that
Portland will assail the hitherto un
marred record of the San Francisco
club in not having lost an opening-day
game of the season since the organiza
tion of the Pacific Coast League, and in
order to insure a victory, the tall Port
land manager has selected Jesse Garrett
to fling the opening game, and Gus
Fisher will be behind the bat.
Manager Danny Long and J. Cal Ew
Ing have completed arrangements for
the opening day ceremonies, which will
commence - with an automobile parade
conveying the players of the contend
ing clubs and the officials as- invited
guests through the principal streets to
Recreation Park.
Mayor McCarthy Pitches.-
Mayor P. H. McCarthy will pitch the
first ball and several public officials
will assist In the raising of the pen
nant won by the San Francisco Club
last season.
Judge Thomas F. Graham, president of
the Pacific Coast League, will deliver
a short address upon baseball topics,
and will also explain his Instructions
delivered to the umpires yesterday.
For San Francisco. "Jack" Henley
will be on the firing line, while Claud
Berry will act as receiver. The battle
between Garrett and Henley should
make a most interesting game, for
Jesse is out to keep up his successes
against the tall Seal pitcher.
Cal Ewing Up in Arms.
Permission being finally granted Mc
Credie by the Seal management, this
morning the Portland team worked out
on the San Francisco grounds, though
J. Cal Ewing announced that had he
been informed of It, he would not have
sanctioned the move, for Cal says the
San Francisco grounds belong to the
San Francisoo club and asserts Mc
Credie' team has enjoyed better weath
er conditions than has his own club,
and for that reason does not need as
much work as do Mohler's players.
The real reason Is that the workout
performed by McCredie's squad may
have scared the San Francisco mag
nate, for the Portland boys went
through one of the speediest and most
gingery workouts they have experienced
since leaving Santa Maria
Indications point to a record-breaking
opening-day crowd, and the weath
er promises to be fair and warm, mak
ing an ideal day for baseball. Speak
ing of the prospects for the opening
day. Manager McCredie said tonight:
Great Confidence in Garrett.
"I am firmly of the belief that my
team is going to get ofT In front, for I
think we can beat San Francisco this
seriesi. and I have great confidence in the
ability of Jesse Garrett to score a victory
at the start. I think I have a better
all-around team than last year, for when
we started last season we did not have
a catcher In ebape and now I have three
good catchers and all of them ready to
tart tomorrow.
"I also think I have a better pitching
staff than last season, for instead of
three dependable pitchers I now have
six men who should deliver the goods.
With Casey back at second base, I think
the infield is strengthened 50 per cent,
and either Rapps or Ort can play first
base admirably. Olson Is better than he
ever was, and Ketzel and Perrlne make
a good pair to pick a third baseman
from, so I think Portland stands an ex
cellent chance to win."
Howard Guyn, one of McCredie's pitch
ers, and the most reliable utility player
on the club, is seriously ill with a
threatened attack of pneumonia. Mc
Yedie has summoned the best medical
talent obtainable to attend to Guyn.
whose case, while serious, is not believed
dangerous, and the physician expects to
get him on his feet before the end of the
week, when McCredie probably will
send him to Portland to rest up and
recuperate. The teams will line-up as
follows:
Line-Up of Teams Out.
Portland Ketzel, third base; Olson,
shortstop; Casey, second base; McCredie,
right field; J. Ryan, center field; Speas,
left field; Rapps. first base; Fisher,
catcher; Garrett, pitcher.
San Francisco Mohler, second base;
McHale, center field; Tennant, fir6t base;
Melchior, right field; Bodie, left field;
Mundorf. third base; Berry, catcher;
McCardle, shortstop; Henley, pitcher.
Van Haltren and Hildebrand will um
pire the opening games here, while Mc
Greevy officiates at Los Angeles and
Finney at Sacramento.
The arrival of Al Carson will swell
McCredie's pitching staff to ten men. and
it will require deep study and expert
figuring to select the regular staff for
the season finally. McCredie may keep
eight of the pitchers until May 1 or later
and figure on carrying his trio of catch
ers during most of the season. A num
ber of players will be shipped to Port
land from here, and ordered to await the
arrival of the club at the home town,"
for McCredie does not think it neces
: sary to carry all of his squad around the
circuit on the first swing.

JEFF FIT, NOT
REPORT OF BROKEN ARM IS
JUST "FAKE."
Fighter in Los Angeles After Auto
Trip Along Aqueduct "Feels
Fine and Dandy."
LOS ANGELES, Cal., March 29.
(Special.) The rumor circulated all
over the country today that Jim Jef
fries' arm had been broken in an auto
mobile accident, turned out to be a
"fake," for Jim is in the best of shape
tonight, according to his own State
ment. He says he feels "fine and
dandy."
He arrived here about 6 o'clock this
evening with Joe Desmond and party
from a trip of five days along the
aquedi-t. The big fellow did not get
any bear and did not care, for the snow
was so deep that the hunters could not
get into the mountains with their auto
mobile. They went as far north as 30 miles
beyond Independence, and Jim came
back feeling hmappy over his experi
ences, for he had met another cham
pion up in the hills, and the new one's
name is Bill Bill Mulholland. Jeff
declares he gained five pounds on the
trip on the meals that Desmond gives
the laborers.
He is to sro to San Francisco on Fri
day or Saturday and probably will
strike his training camp about Monday.
He intends to go on another hunting
trip after the Johnson fight. His
family and friends were agitated all
day by the report of a broken arm,
and Mrs. Jeffries was almost frantic
before she managed to reach her hus
band by telephone and learn that all
was well.

Fear ot Race Riots Causes Ban Rail
Rates Obtained.
CHICAGO, March 29. The arena at
Emeryville, Cal., where the Jeffries
Johnson fight is scheduled to take
place July 4. will be "dry" on that
day, according to Jack Gleason. one of
the promoters, who Is in Chicago.
"Even if I were offered $3000 in cash
for the bar privilege at the arena, 1
would not consider the proposition,"
said Gleason. "I am afraid that If in
toxicants . were sold at the ringside a
race riot might be started by the fol
lowers of Jeffries and Johnson. The
fans will have to go thirsty during the
battle, for there will be no drinks
served."
Final arrangements for handling
tickets for the fight in Chicago and
surrounding territory were completed
yesterday by Gleason. who closed ne
gotiations with the 'railroad officials.
He said he was assured of a $72.50
round-trip rate and the purchaser will
be able to secure tickets for the fight
while purchasing the transportation.

York. '
