BT W. J. TETBAIX.
Mor than loyal Portland fan
crowded Into the Vauicbn-itreet park to
watch th Beavers and the Angels play
the first Sunday same of the season yes
terday, and they saw Portland slaughter
three Los Angeles twlrlers and pile up
a score of li to t.
It was a "slugfesf from start to
finish on tbe part of McCredle's wallop
ers, while on tbe other hand. BenPT

geance. The tig pitcher was started In
a game for the first time this season,
and be had no sooner retired the Angela

of the vast throng present unanimously
agreed that the es"outlaw pitcher was
Just as good. If not better, than he was

Not only did Benny heave a splendid
. game, but be um-orked some batting
stunts that aroused the utmost enthu
siasm, for be pasted the bail out of the
lot over a sign of a business house
which entitles him to worth of furni
ture, and followed this by lacing the
ball high against the right center wall
for two bases on bis next appearance
before the veteran, George Wheeler.
Henderson's work and the presence of
the vast throng proved about the only
features to tbe game, for It was Port
land all the way and the batting bee
kept tip throughout the game.
Kvery member of the Portland team
scored from one to three b'ts and runs
as well. All of them itemed able to
hit the ball, and every man on the
team scored at least once, which Is a
rert arkable Instance In games of this
klr.O. In the latter Innings, the Beavers
ran wild on the sacks, and Catcher
Aobott winged out a number of them.
Klein Is Eliminated.
Eddie Klein, the young soothpaw who
was batted out of the box in the first
Inning Friday, was started by "Pa" IMI
lnn again yrsterday. but hits by Chad
bnurne and Ryan and a pass to Sheehan
ftiied the bas-s with none out. and Dillon
hustled the kid to the stable and sub
stituted Wheeler. Artie Krueger polu
a long fly to Daley, and on the catch
Cliadboarne scored the first run.
The Beavers laid off In the second
frame, but after Umpire HUdebrand con
tributed a run to the Angels In the first
of the third by a fierce decision at third,
the home guard got busy and hit the
ball to all corners of the lot and out of
It. for Ben Henderson wound up a bunch
of five tallies by knocking tbe ball over
the stockade.
This quintet of runs was just an appe
tiser for the home team, as they tallied
once in the fourth, twice In the fifth,
and chased over five more in the sixth,
which proved enough for Wheeler, and
Frlene was trotted on the hill In the
seventh. He got by In that Inning nlcrly.
but In the eighth the Beavers brotislit
tnelr total up to li tallies by timely bits.
Itapps Star In I'iclri.
Henderson let up In the eighth and
ninth, and Los Angeles managed to put
a run over In each of the last two
frames, but the home team plainly took
things easy, aa they had the game safely
stowed away. The bright particular
fielding star of the game was Roaring
Kill Kappa, who played that first sack
like a major leaguer and accepted some
extremely difficult chances neatly and
cleanly.
The Lo Angeles team left for borne
last nlcht. where they are scheduled to
meet Happlcua Hogan and his fast-going
Hooligan snuad. commencing Wednesday.
Tuesday afternoon Patsy O'Kourke and
his Sacramento Senators will make their
bow at the local park, and the new
leader of last season's trailers" expects
to Introduce Ben Hunt and Frank Arrel
anes. as new faces on his new learn.
Both pitched for Sacramento last sea
son, and were recently returned to that
cl'ib by the Boston Americans.

Five-Inning Contests Barton's
Team Wins Exciting Struggle
From Little Bo-Peeps.
Big-league opening-day features took
place yesterday at the opening of the
Sunday Morning League at the Mult
nomah Amateur Athletic Club. Raleigh
Trimble, father of the Sunday Morning
League, pitched the first ball and A. B.
McAlpln. father of Multnomah Club,
caught the first bail.
These formalities concluded. Umpire
Jim Berger shouted "play ball" and the
Insurrectos. organized by Dell O'Han
lon. and the Mutts, guided by Harry
Fischer, took the field, the Mutts win
ning, 12 to . In the second game
Charles Barton and his "champ" crew
defeated the Little-Bo-Peeps, led by
Parke Myers. The score was 8 to 6.
The games were five innings lontr
and full of excitement. In the first
game the Mutts began by getting three
runs In the first Inning. O'Hanlon's
men came back with two. They got an
other in tbe second and by landing on
Pitcher Schmidt for six lilts in the
fourth they got five runs. The Mutts
were shut out in the second but got
eight runs in the third. In this lnnlti;r
Ed Morris was the hero of the game,
getting a home run with tnree on the
sacks. One more run was acoreo. in
the fourth. The players were:
SPOKANE. Wash.. April 23. (Spe
cial.) It was as much too much Cooney
today as too much Casey yesterday,
and Portland was only able to drive two
safe hits through the infield and two
Into the outfield. The Washington-street
diamond store robbery was a mild mis
demeanor compared to what Cooney
did to the Tourist sharp drives. Twice
be prevented Portland winning.
In the seventh Inning. Portland had
two men on bases and two out, when
Cooney dug Speas' sharp drive in the
dirt back of second base and beat
speedy Mundorff to second for the third
out. This stunt was overshadowed by
another hair-raising pickup of Casey's
high slow bounder over the pitcher's
head on the far side of second base.
Kraft Invincible.
With "Hannibal" Kraft pitching
faultless ball, it made no difference if
Spokane's Infield was crippled. Port
land could do nothing with the crafty
southpaw and Spokane had little
trouble making it five out of six on the
series. With the exception of the first
and seventh innings not more than
three men faced Kraft to the inning.
Tonneson got his mates into trouble
frequently and they were not up to
their usual fielding standard, either. He
retired in the third In favor of Garrett.
Portland's lone run came In tbe first on
an error, an infield out and Williams'
single.
President Conn announced that all
former attendance records were broken.
The nald admissions were well over
000. The crowd surged over the
bleachers and packed the side-lines
from third base down to the fence, also
overflowing the right field bleachers.
XordykVs Batting Feature.
Nordvke'a batting was a feature. A
drive through the box in the third that
meant a run, nearly took Garrett's
finger along with it and in the seventh
he. nearly knocked Mundorff down with
a slashing drive. Score:

CHICAGO. April 23. (Special.) Some
consistent swatting sprinkled through
nine indifferent rounds by McGuire's
Naps terminated in a thorough lacing
for the locals today at the South Side
Orchard. The curtain dropped on the
matinee with the count at 6 and 2, after
a Sunday crowd of 24.000 had witnessed
the rout of no less than IS Duffyltes who
were shunted into the scene of activity
at stated intervals.
In the main, a youth with the some
what catchy name of Venn Gregg, late
of Portland, Or., was responsible for
what transpired. 'In the second major
league game of his career the frail in
dividual with the southpaw wing and an
ambition to carve out fame of the Rube
Waddell variety, did everything that
Duffy and his gang bad not counted
upon.
He had all the self-confidence of
suffragette. While Olmstead, Scott and
even the newly-arrived Jess Baker were
receiving theirs on the firing line, the
quiet Yean sailed along supremely and
his larboard snoots had the hose crew
shaken from stem to stern. The con
sternation he created will go down In
Duffy's logbook in red Ink. For
starter he gave but six safe swats, .but
this is of no account, for three of them
came in the ninth Inning after the vis
itors had done the humiliating stunt to
perfection and had the match thorough

Los Angeles Is at Bottom of List
and Oaks Run Down to Keep
Tallenders From Getting
Real Lonesome.
BY ROSCOE FAWCETT.
When I was a youngster, aged just three.
I was stuni; on the shin by a bun.ble bee.
The bcmbla bee. as he flew away
Said, "Wol, you'll get stung again some day."
I've been stung again, and I surely rue it.
But I never imagined Vernon would do It.
WOLVERTON'S WAIL.
Sunday's double-barreled defeat for
Oakland sent creepy shivers zigzaging
through the percentage table, Vernon
leaping skyward with a noise not un
like a buzz saw with bronchitis, while
Los Angeles tumbled to the tunnel
with the, spattering of an egg dropped
from the top of The Oregonlan build
ing. The Angels are now tallenders,
with the Oaks not far above them.
Wolverton has lost 11 of the last 12
games six out of seven to Vernon
so It's little wonder Oakland fans are
flabbergasted. Another fortnight like
it and it's a safe bet the anvil brigade
will be cutting capers like a Fiji
Islander in an ice rink.
Tomorrow the Sacramento club opens
a week's engagement in Portland, re
inforced by the addition of three
pastimers from the Bostons Outfielder
Chris Mahoney, Pitcher Ben Hunt and
Frank Arrelanes. Mahoney played
stellar role during the sojourn of the
Red Stockings in California, hitting on
equal terms with that renowned swat
ster, Trls Speaker. He hails from
Fordham College, where he was the
star slabster for five seasons.
Arrelanes and Hunt pitched last sea
son for the Senators. Arrelanes is
great friend of Hal Chase, of the New
York Yanks, and Jimmy Byrnes, Ta
coma catcher, who is laid up in San
Francisco with an injured digit, is of
fering odds that Arrelanes will land
with Chase before another year is up.
"If Boston ever asks waivers on him
watch Manager Chase grab him," says
Byrnes in a letter.
Portland Batters Good.
"How do the Portland boys stand
In the hitting table?" queried an anx
ious fan last night over the telephone
following the hailstorm In the after
noon at the Vaughn-street lot.

Frank E. Watklns to Display His
Bull Terrier, Which Won Lau
rels East, in Stall Here.
Dogs to be benched at the 12th annual
how of the Portland Kennel Club, which
will begin Wednesday night at Fifth and
Washington streets, began to assemble
in Portland yesterday. A. C. Welch, of
Butte. Mont., who owns a strine of the
best Airedale terriers In the world, ar-
ived in Portland yesterday with his
pack of prize winners. Mr. Welch is one
of the best-known fanciccs and breeders
in the country, and counts on making a
snowing at me local Dencn show.
Frank E. Watkins. a member of the
Portland Kennel Club and famous
throughout the United States as a bull-
terrier breeder, arrived home from the
Tacoma Kennel Club show Saturday with
a queer experience to relate. Mr. Wat
klns recently purchased the famous bull
terrier bitch Vampire, which won at the
New York show. He has changed her
name to Willamette Sensation, and un
der that cognomen entered her in the
Tacoma show.
The Judge of that benching was not a
bull-dog expert and passed the Vampire
up, not recognizing tier under the name
of the Willamette Sensation. He was a
badly surprised man when informed by
Mr. Watklns that he had awarded third
place to the animal which has swept
everything at the New York Kennel
Club show In Madison Square Garden.
Willamette Sensation will be one of the
Portland entries in the show beginning
Wednesday. Bonnybred Stiletto, cham
pion bull terrier with which Mr. Watkins
has won In' almost every part of the
United States, will be shown, but for
exhibition purposes only. Willamette'
Dazzler is another bull terrier which
will be shown this year.
This week's show will in more ways
than one be the biggest and best bench
show ever held in Oregon. Last year's
show took all prizes up to date, but it
will be eclipsed by the '11 exhibition.
In point of entries, the number of classes
and the list of prizes this show compares
favorably with any held on the Pacific
Coast. More than S00 dogs have been
entered to date. The list of trophies
comprises more than TO cups. And there
are other prizes, too, in addition 10
prizes for special classes.
Judging will begin Wednesday after-
Four Alleged Gamblers Are Seized
in Bleachers. , '
PAN FRANCISCO. April 23. (Spe
cial.) Another crusade to open organ
ized gambling on the ball games was
started today when four men were ar
rested in the right-field bleacher sec
tion at Recreation Park charged with
accepting bets and violating the state
law in that regard. The arrests were
made by a posse of policemen in plain
clothes. They say that they have evi
dence enough to convict the captives.
The four men who were arrested
when booked at the Mission-street sta
tion, gave the following names: Leland
Karber, clerk; Joseph Barton, teamster;'
Joseph Peiser, coachman and Walter
Smith, clerk.
These are the first arrests made
since the opening of the 1911 season
and it is announced by Cal Ewing and
the police that officers will watch the
situation closely from now on to pre-,
vent gambling. Ewing further says
that Ed. Kripps, well known in San
Francisco and the owner of the Sacra-,
mento baseball park, although the
Capitol City grounds are leased to the
present management, pleaded with him
not to prosecute the men who were
arrested.
"Ed. Kripps came to me as soon as
the arrests were made and asked that
we go easy with the men," said Ewing.'
"But we are not going easy with such
men. We do not want any gambling
on the baseDau games ana win not
countenance It within our grounds.
All the credit Is due Captain Gleason
and the Chief for the officers who havei
been on duty to suppress gambling.;
Captain Gleason has promised to back:
us up and arrests will continue wher
ever there is gambling."
It is no secret that during the past
few weeks gambling has been going on
at Recreation Park and these arrests
will doubtless act as a preventive.
STANFORD CREW STAYS SOUTH;
Oarsmen Will Not Come to Race I
Washington in Seattle.
SEATTLE. April 23. The Stanford'
and University of Washington eight
oar crews will not race on Lake Wash
Ington thi year, according to a mes
sage received by Graduate Manager
Victor Zednick.
Arrangements had been made to
bring the Stanford varsity and fresh
man crews to Seattle, the University
of Washington guaranteeing $600 for
the expenses of the trip. The Univers
ity of California crew offered to come,
paying their own expenses, making the
race a triangular event. Assistant
Manager Herbert Siegler. who went to
Berkeley with the Washington track
team, was authorized to sign contracts
with representatives of both California
institutions, but today a telegram was
received from him saying that the
Stanford eight could not meet Wash
ington in Seattle, and that Stanford
could not take the Washington crew
to California.
Stanford la willing to send freshmen
crews north if Washington will pay
$400 for expenses, but Manager Zed
nick said toJay that he cannot accept
hat proposition unless Stanford will
agree to take Washington's eight to
California. The local oarsmen are still
hopeful that the University of Cali
fornia crew will come north to race.
