Hunt had been pitching the grandest kind of baseball until the fatal seventh, for he allowed only two hits in the early Innings, and had been mowing down the Beavers almost In order. But the seventh well, it simply sent the home fans "dippy" with delight, for the Maekmen slammed the offerings of Hunt to all cor ners of the lot and scored enough runs and then some to stow away the eighth straight victory over the Sacramento club. Even Home Runs Kail to Win. Sacramento had corralled three runs in three different innings, and two of them were home-run clouts over th-3 light gar den wall. Two home runs. nnl yet they failed to win. In the second tnnini? with two out, Van Buren singled off Garrett, and took third when Raymer iasted an 'other hit to right. Van and the ex-Boston player pulled the double steal. Van scoring from third and Raymer reaching second because both Fisher and Olson heaved badly. Ben Hunt was the first Senator to faca Gar rett In the third, and after swinging wildly twice he connected for a hoist over' the garden wall, which gave Sacramento a two-ruti lead. Garrett strained a tendon in his pitch ing arm In fielding Briggs bunt in the fourth, and in the fifth '-Big' Six". Steen relieved him on the moun-1. Steen closed Sacramento out.runlass In the fifth, but after making monkeys of Shlnn and Persons In the sixth, he was found by "Ginger" Perry for a circuit swat, the second homer of the day, and, like Hunt's, the ball sailed high over the right field wall. , Then came Hunt's Waterloo, for In the seventh Portland did things a-plenty. Gus Hetling opened with a grounder to Raymer. but the sphere took a bad hop and Fred could not get his man. Raymer then made the mistake of trying to get Hetling at second on Fisher's infield tap, and both men were safe. This put it up to "Roaring Bill" Rapps, who has proved himself the demon hitter of the club thus far, and Bill came through with a two base smash which scurried Hetling- and Fisher over the register. Rapps Plays Strong Game. ?It was Bill's second double in the Bame. and he was given an ovation. Buddy Ryan sacrificed, advancing Rapps to third, and Billy Speas startled the Senators with a two-bagger to right cen ter, Rapps scoring. Casey ' pulled an In field hit over second, and Speas was on third. Ort was sent in to run for the crippled captain. i Steen bunted along first base line, and Van Buren tried to get Speas at the plate, but was late, and Steen was safe at first and Ort at second. Smith beat out a bunt to Darringer, who tossed to Van Buren, the latter muffing the throw and letting Ort score. Steen scored when Spiesman threw badly to catch Smith stealing. This made a total of six runs, enough to win the game. , Eugene Krapp is slated to pitch against Sacramento, while Charley Graham will depend upon Charley Baum to stop the Portland team.

DOCTOR ENTHUSES OVER J. JOHNSON Physician Finds Dusky Fight er's Heart and Lung Action Magnificent. TRAINERS ARE TAKEN ON Champion ' Takes to Road With His Xew Specialist, Tom Flanagan, Holding Watch Budding As sistant Gets Badly Jolted. SAN FRANCISCO. May 2S. Jack John son had a busy day of it at his training camp today. In the morning he was on on the road with his new specialist, Tom Flanagan, who held a watch on the champion, and the regular programme of boxing was taken up in the afternoon. Johnson also received hta first physical examination at the hands of Dr. A. F. Sampson. Dr. Sampson tested John son as to his heart and lungs, before he commenced his gymnasium work and again Immediately after the boxing. Al though he refused to make a detailed statement at this time. Dr. Sampson said, that Johnson's heart was magnificent and that he could hardly detect any dif ference in the, pulse beats between the two examinations. "He is a wonderfully built man physl caly." said Dr. Sampson, "and we would all be lucky if we had hearts- like his. His lungs- ere in perfect shape and as a fighter I would say that he is in grand condition today." Johnson eeems to have a penchant for the scales, as he jumped on them again this- afternoon and weighed 21S pounds. His boxing consisted of eight rounds and the work was- the fastest he has done. He boxed four rounds with George Cot ton and then took on Roy Kenney, a local heavyweight, for a round. Kenney had a desire to become a member of the camp, but one round knocked the notion out of his head. Then the colored f ghtcr finished up with three rounds with Marty Cutler. That, with some bag punching, completed the schedule of work In the gymnasium. There will be no further boxing until Saturday, but Johnson said today that he would box three days straight, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Joe Lanum, well known in amateur fight circles in San Francisco, who re cently turned professional, will Join the camp as a sparring partner the first of the week. Lanum is a heavy fellow and ought to give Johnson Just the kind of roughing that he needs. PORTLAND MAX. VJOIXS CIRCUS Sells-FIoto Acquire William Cherry, : Triple Bar Acrobat.' Not only did the Sells-FIoto ciraus, which showed in Portland Monday and Tuesday, take with it a lot of Portland money but it also took with It one of Portland's well-known acrobats In the person of William Cherry, the crack Y. M. C. A., Multnomah Club triple bar per former who took part in the big Mult nomah Club Spring carnival last month in the Armory. Cherry is an athlete of .jnuch promise and the circus stunt will give him an opportunity to rls In the acrobatic pro fession. He has been training at the Y. M. C. A. for several years for such an opportunity. Irwin, another member of the trio of triple-bar performers that ap peared in the Spring carnival, was wanted by the Sells-FIoto management but busi ness Interests prevented his going with the circus. Cherry was to have appeared, along with Irwin and Bowman, in their triple-bar performance at the Society circus which will be held on Multnomah Field during the Rose Carnival week. - GORRILL'S EXDURAXCE WINS Wickersham Beaten In Semi-Finals for Katz Tennis Trophy. In what was one of the best tennis1 matches ever seen in Portland, Gorrill defeated Wickersham yesterday afternoon on the Multnomah Club courts in the an nual Multnomah Club handicap tourna ment for the Alma D. Katz cup. The tennis displayed by both players was class A. The players were about evenly matched. Wickersham owed 4-6, but, that handicap is believed by many to be the cause of his defeat. The game was the semi-final in the men's singles and the winner will meet Black this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock In the final match for the Katz trophy. Yesterday's match began at noon and lasted until after 3 o'clock. The full five sets were played. The game developed into a contest of endurance at last and Gorrill, the younger man, proved the stronger. Wickersham started out like a winner, annexing the first set by the score of 6 to 1. The second "went to Gorrill -by the score of S to 4. The third set saw much brilliant play and Gorrill. by consistent and spectacular work, won by the score of 7 to 5. After a brief rest the men again began playing and Wickersham easily took the set by the score of 6-3. In the last set Gorrill showed his real strength, played Wickersham off his feet and won by the score of 6 to 3. Wickersham plainly was not in the beet of condition. These two players proba bly will meet in the Irvington Tennis Club tournament, which begins Saturday on the Irvington Club courts. Both men probably will be entered and if they do meet, another good battle can be expect ed. Wickersham won the Katz cup last year.

OPPONENTS ARE STRONG Bill Harvard's Men, After Long Series of Misfortunes, Begin to Recover Form-Visitors Are Consistent Performers. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Or., May 25. (Special.) With a team that many sporting authorities have picked as the strongest in the Northwest today, Washington State College will endeavor to carsy the fast University of Oregon track team down to defeat in the last track meet of the college season here next .Friday. Not only Is the Pullman squad the best balanced aggregation that has represent ed Washington State College in many years, but at least two of the 13 men who will make the trii to Eugene are ath letes of exceptional ability. One of these is Nelson, who a week ago in the dual meet between Pullman and Whitman Col lege ran the 100-yard dash in 9 3-6 and the 220 in 21 1-5, in both events tying the world's records set by Dan Kelly, the Oregon sprinter, four years ago. Nelson is a consistent performer, several times last year having made the hundred in 9 4-6. In this same meet, Cooil, of Pull man, also ran the half mile In 1:69, set ting a new Northwest record, and made the mile in the fast time of 4:31. For the first time this season, however, the Oregon team is in condition to per form at its best. After the disastrous -showing made against the University of Washington at Seattle early in the year, Oregon's chances for winning any of her meets looked very blue, but the wearers of the lemon-yellow struck their true form in the meet against Oregon Agricultural College here last Friday, which they won handily by the score of 84 to 38. "Bill" Hayward, tha veteran trainer, has had a hard row to hoe this season in combating unexpected training injuries and lack of material, but by tying one Coast record and breaking three Northwest marks; his men showed that they possess class. The men Hayward has entered in the meet for Oregon are as follows: 100-yard dash, Kay, ' Bristow; 120-yard hurdles, Hawkins, Latourette, Olsen; mile rum, Rlddell, McClure, Henry McGuire; 440 yard dash, Johns.

HILL IS REFUSED ADMISSIOX Interscholastic League, However, Votes in Vancouver High. Much important business was trans acted by the board of directors of the Portland Interscholastic League in tho regular weekly meeting of that board which was held yesterday afternoon at the Multnomah Club. The application on the part of the HiU Military Academy for re-admission was rejected. The Hill Military Acad emy withdrew two years ago after charges had been preferred against It. It was alleged at that time that the in stitution had enticed a number of ath letes away from the other schools, which was against the rules of the league. Vancouver High School, which ap plied for admission some time ago, was voted into the league and wifT be one of the football teams entered this Fall. Vancouver High has always had a good athletic reputation and the addi tion of it to the league will do much toward giving a better class of ath letics to an already good league. The addition of Vancouver, will also make it possible for the directors to make up a larger schedule. The officials for the big Interschol astic League track and field meet, which will be held Saturday afternoon on - Multnomah Field, were named at yesterday's meeting. Gordon C. Moores. the former University of Oregon sprinter and hurdler, was appointed starter. Frank Lonergan was made clerk of the course. The Judges of the finish will be: W. L Murray, J. R. Latourette, E. Plowden Stott and T. Morris Dunne. The following were ap pointed Inspectors: J. C. Veatch, Hugh J. Boyd, George Gammle end Frank Collier. The field Judges will be P. W. Lee and Bert Allen. Forrest C. Smithson. A. B. . McAlpin, W. J. Payne and W. B. Fechhelmer were selected to be timers. ' The field events next Saturday after noon will begin at 2 o'clock and the track events will begin at 3 o'clock. Jefferson High School will be repre sented by a track team for the first time.
