chose the spots for the boxer to fall
'on. Kennedy several times attempted to
bore through the defense of the big fel

they had little effect on tha "coming

of Morris onslaughts, but came back
strong. Neither waa In distress when tha
gong rang.
Morris went after hia man with straight
arm Jolta at the opening of the second

"Buddy" Ryan. Portland'a popular
outfielder, who haa played with tha
Beavers for two seasons, returned to
Portland yesterday after having spent
the Christmas holidays with his rela
tives In Denver. He Is confident that
the Portland team will repeat Its suc

Ryan has deep faith In McCredle's
ability to fill the places left vacant by
the sale to the Cleveland club of Gregg.
Krapp. Olson and Fisher. He thinks
that the players McCredle haa lined up
will replace the quartet of stars quite
handily.
"We'll be In the race." said Ryan yea

He knew what he waa about when ha
sold Gregg and the othi-rs to Cleveland,
and In return for those players he Is
not going to be handed any lemons. Tha
Cleveland club will take care of Port
land all right, for they will have to do
It In order to make good on the Gregg;
deal.
"I don't know who Mac has In view to
fill the places of Casey and Olson, but
he must have some good ones .In line,
or he would not let two such good men
get away from l.lm at one time. I ex
pect "Bill" Rapps and Tommy Sheehan
will be back at first and third bases
during the coming season.
"Aa for catchers McCredle is expect
ing to have Walter Kuhn. the Fresno
redtop. officiate with Tommy Murray.
Kuhn Is exceptionally fast and la one
of the best hitters I ever saw. The out
field will be about the same aa last year,
and McCredle needs only a couple of
live pitchers to put us In front of the
bunch from the start."
Ryan will remain In Portland during
the remainder of the Winter and will
accompany Manager McCredle to Cali
fornia when the Portland leader leaves
for the training camp about February

V. T. Miles Sends Word That Mc

Grounds as Training Quarters.
SANTA MARIA, Cal., Jan. 12. (To
the Sporting Editor of The Oregonlan.)
Walter McCredle has decided to bring
his Portland Beavers here for the
Spring training season. Players are
to report here February 26.
W. T., MILES.
"W. T. Miies Is the baseball Ifti
presarlo of the Santa Maria Valley,
and Is a close friend of Walter Mc
Credle, who visited Santa Maria yes
terday. After a conference with Miles,
McCredle evidently announced that he
would again bring hia Beavers to the
training camp of 1910.
This little city, situated in the Santa
Maria- range of mountains, and about
20 miles Inland from the California
Coast, was an Ideal conditioning camp
for the Portland ball-tossers last
Spring. McCredle has always favored
returning there this year, but was un
decided when he -left for the South
because of his desire to secure more
practice games. This contingency must
have . been met by the Santa Maria
fans.
Santa Maria has a fine baseball park
for a small town and also has several
first-class young players from whom
to make up a team to oppose the Beav
ers. McCredie will probably arrange
for games with the Santa. Barbara
team, as well as with the team at San
Luis Obispo. There la also a likelihood
of Portland playing games with the
Tacoma Tigers at Fresno, and the
Bakersfleld team.
One of the games to be played with
the Boston Red Sox of the American
league will likely be played at Santa
Maria, while the others, if McCredle
secures three or four games with that

club as expected, will probably be
played at Santa Barbara. San Luis
Obispo, and either San Bernardino or
some other point near Los Angeles.
This year the Portland team will open
the season at Los Angeles. Santa
Maria is about half way between San
Francisco and the Angel City.

The ChOdrens Story About Music
It must have been in an old, old book, that nobody knows where to
find that there was a story that comes back now like a recollection of
something you thought of when you were most asleep
It is a story about the time when the world had hardly begun to
be, & and the sea.& the sky & the golden sands & the Fames & the
wonder-folk & the birds were all that there were at all. . .
And not a sound in the world had ever been heard. The 1 wnes
played as quietly as shadows & the sea was as still as the sky. kven
the wind hadn't learned to blow. . .
Bnt one day it was all changed, for one of the Fairies, wandering
on the golden sands, found a tortoise shell that was somehow there,
with a few dried strands streteht tightly across its empty bowl.
She caught it up & swept her hands across the strands 4t they
answered with a sound the first sound that there ever was in the
whole, great, beautiful, silent world. ... f lU
Over & over again she struck the magic strands, calling forth
chords & notes that rang & lingered & echoed & woke up the sleeping
sea & the wind & taught the birds that they could sing. And when the
rest of the Fairies heard it they came dancing & laughing over the
sands with their feet tinkling wherever they toucht, & caught hands
around & whirled away to carry the message that Music was born &
that everybody would be happy forever more because of it.
Xow, don't you think that this is a nice story, especially when it
is one that we just ean remember t ,
And don't you think it would be nice to know something about
music yourself & to have a piano to learn to playf
And if you would, perhaps your papa & mamma will come to the
