Between the work of Umpire Finney
nd the lassitude displayed by the Port
land players, the latter managed to
"sluff off" another game of baseball
yesterday, Vernon winning a. 3-to-J. de
cision in a battle that went 10 innings.
Roy Hitt was on the hilltop for the
visiting team and be was hit decidedly
harder than was Eugene Krapp, who
heaved for Portland, but the Beavers
went to sleep on the bases, tried im
possible stunts in the base-running
line to such an extent that Hitt did
not have to worry much when a Mc
Credie hireling did negotiate first or
econd. Portland "slufted oft" at
least three runs before the ninth
Inning, and the Vernon tallies regisT
tered in the 10th can be attributed to
a Mr. Finney.
Finney Shows In Decision,
With Hitt stowed away in the decid
ing chapter, Carlisle hit a slow one be
tween Rapps and Casey, and both tried
to field it with the result that neither
"glommed" the ball, and Carlisle was
safe. He Immediately stole second.
Krapp then took an aerial trip on his
own account and filled the bases by
walking Stovall and Coy. Burrell hav
ing popped out between times, making
two on ice when Roy Brashear hit
sharply to Olson, who tossed to first
apparently ahead of the runner, but
the "man with the register" calledthe
runner out and then reversed it waving
him safe, while Carlisle and Stovall
raced home with two scores. It was a
lovely ruling "nit."
Both teams scored runs in the sec
ond Inning, and both runs were decid
edly on the order of the horseshoe va
riety. In the opening half, Vernon tal
lied when Roy Brashear doubled to
center, was held at second when Fisher
went out at first, but took third on
Lindsay's out, and scored when Happy
Hogan bounded one that took a bad
hop to Rapps.
When Happy Hogan Drops Ball.
In Portland's half Martinke singled
to center, and went to second when Hitt
tossed badly trying to catch him off
first. Hetllng's out sent him to third,
and Casey fanned, making two
out. Buddy Ryan bunted to Burrell,
but Happy Hogan dropped the ball at
the plate and Martinke was safe.
With the score at one-all, the teams
battled along; to the extra session. In
the ninth, Hetling opened with a two
base smash, but pulled a bum one by
trying to take three, but this probably
was due to poor coach'ing, he being
tossed out at third on a relay from
Stovall. to Carlisle to Burrell. After
this, both Casey and Ryan singled
sharply to center, and one run should
have resulted had Hetling held second,
but the less said about yesterday's fi
asco the better.
Seaton will pitch for Portland today
and either Wlllett or Hensling for
Vernon. The score:

In preparation for the ensuing .foot

practically remade. Work commenced
on the field the first of the week and
is progressing very rapidly with about

(.barlea Harmon.
RAYMOND, Wash., July . 4.
(Special.) It is the proud boast
of Raymond fans that in Charles
Harmon, popularly known as
"Cottontop," they have the best
outfielder in the State League.
Harmon's fielding average to
date is 1000, and his batting
record is .346. He leads the
league in stolen bases, with 26
in 24 games. He is making sen
sational catches constantly, and
since he has not the knack of
making hard chances look easy
it Is plain that he is hard at
work all the time. He is popular
with the fans and his team
mates as well.
game, as provided by the changes in
the rules made last year, it was deemed
necessary to obtain a fast field. To
this end 'a mixture of rock and clay
to the depth of nearly three feet has
been spread on the old field, which was
filled in last Summer. On top of this
a coat of macadam will be used, and
over all another half-foot of fine clay
will be spread. The macadam, say the
engineers at work:, will drain the fleld
and make it almost twice as fast as
formerly.
Old Drainage Not Good.
Last year a network of tiling was
laid throughout the football field, and
while it did drain oft part of the water
it still failed to take off all, and as a
consequence the fleld was wet and
soggy during the rainy season. Then
too, the new fleld will enable the soc
cer team to use the field after the com
pletion of the intercollegiate season

play that new and popular game on the

this will be had this Fall.
The new tennis courts which have
been under way for the past month
or more are almost completed. All
that remains to be done on this part
of the new field is to erect the fences
around the four courts, sprinkle and
complete the rolling. All the heavy
rolling, for which a steam road Toller
was employed for several days, has
been completed, and the new courts are
firm and hard, and all that needs to
be done to them is to give them a fin

A new experiment was tried in mak

cinders and clay was used In making
the courts. This mixture is used ex

before been employed in Portland.
Cinders and clay mixture pack mors
firmly and make a court more weather
proof than straight clay.
With the completion of these four
new courts the Multnomah Amateur
Athletic Club will have the finest ten

This time the invading forces ' will rep

by Dr. F. G. Braithwaite, the American
vice-consul, who will act as manager. In
addition to the golfers there will be at
least two lawn tennis players in th

The plan thus far mapped out Is for a
team to arrive in this country early next

and tournaments but arranging . the
schedule so as to take in both the ama
teur and open championships. The Aus

Prominent among the visitors will be
Michael Scott, the amateur champion of
Australia and open champion of New

Next on the list is Clyde Pearce, who
has been both open and amateur title
holder of Australia. Then there is Fel

won the open championship tournament
of Australia, . beating all the profession

BIG FIGHT SAD AFFAIR
PORTLAND FANS GIVE JEFF
CREDIT FOR DOING HIS BEST.
That Negro's Pugilistic Ability Will
Not Soon . See Real Test Is
Belief of Witnesses.
Fight fans commenced arriving in Port
land from Reno yesterday and unani
mously assert that the so-called "biggest
fight of the century" was a great dis
appointment. All declare that James J.
Jeffries, the idol of the white race, was
beaten from the jump. Some of them
even assert that Johnson could have
beaten him in one round, but that even
the colored man did not know at the
start Just how weak Jeffries was.
W: L. Whitmore. one of the veteran
commercial travelers of Portland gives
tho following as his version of the scrap:
"Jeffries looked grand from where I
sat when he entered the ring, but he
had not boxed one round when I felt
that he had no chance. Not that he did
not try in that opening round, but the
intuition came to me, for some unknown
reason, that he was about to be de
feated. After watching the fight through
the 15 rounds I am thoroughly con
vinced that Johnson could have beaten
Jeffries In one round had he plunged in
for such a purpose. He was evidently
doubtful as to Jeffries' real strength and
expected the white man to show some
thing before the fifth round. t
"After withstanding ' Jeff's rushes in
the second, Johnson's so-called 'golden
smile' was in evidence and he lost no op
portunity of sailing Into his opponent.
Jeffries was a beaten man at the sixth
round, and this was only made more and
more apparent as the fight progressed.
After the tenth round it was a pitiful
exhibition, and when it was over there
was not' a single cheer or outburst of
enthusiasm. It was the most remarkable
ending of a fight that I have ever wit
nessed. The spectators seemed stunned
and left the arena without a word, most
of them shaking their heads."
William Heyden Johnson could have
beaten Jeffries any time after the fifth
round. The white man was but a shell
of his former grand physique. He was
absolutely helpless against the 'great
fighting ability displayed by Johnson, and
I do not believe that this fight even
tested the real strength of the negro.
Jeffries made no fight, either offensive
or defensive. He disappointed every one,
and I am thoroughly satisfied that be
was beaten before he ever entered the
ring. I believe he knew that he could
not "come back," and merely went into
the fight to save his forfeit. I sympathize,
with him as much as if I were his broth
er, for I lioaostIy believe he did, the

best he could. It is a shame that he
lost, but he fought once too often.
Fred Cooper It was a slaughter from
the start, and James J. Jeffries was the
lamb offered. Johnson did not have to
extend himself at all, and after the first
three or four rounds, during which he
tried Jeffries out, he simply toyed with
the big fellow and "kidded" Jim Corbett.
It was pitiful in the extreme, for Jeffries
certainly tried hard enough, but his
punches lacked steam and his rushes
were ineffective. No matter what he
did, Johnson always beat him to it, and
frequently cautioned Jeffries not to rush
too hard or he would annihilate him,
and I believe that the negro could have
knocked Jeffries out at any time after
the fifth round. It was the most unequal
battle I have ever seen, for Jeffries was
outclassed all through. He fought like
a man in a trance, and for that reason
I believe he despaired of being able to
stand the gaff before he entered the ring
and considered himself beaten before he
commenced to battle with Johnson. Take
it from me, this black man has not yet
been put to the test, and I don't believe

fight was dramatized by Tom Gardner,
of Massachusetts, who juggled his itiner
