In the course of a lifetime every In dividual meets wun reveries anj dis appointments. Tne same Is true In baseball. Seattle played magnificent ball, fair ball and -rotten" ball this afternoon, losing in the home stretch a game that looked like a cinch. There are bo complaints to make. The um pires gave Seattle everything that was coming her way. Kane be'.n especially discerning In close decisions st tne plate, but draw the curtain on trio eighth and ninth stanzas. It was awfuL Score: TortUnd 10. Sat:le C. Only those who saw the game will reallie how scandalous ";J the con duct of Teaiey Raymond and the new pet. Bues. They tossed away the gams when It was a 100-to-l shot that Seat tle would win. But ll was the fortune ef war. Two Are 'Tall Cojs." At President Dugdale said, after tha way things had been runnlnn the locals had to get It out of their system and Teaiey tnd Bues proved to be the Tall gays." Whoever fceal before of Teaiey Ray mond making four errors In one game and two of them on spparently easy chances In the ninth Inning? Ties had all his hard luck In the eighth and It Is true that one or two of the chances were of the sam kind that put Hobby James on the blink during ths past week. TTlnd Itlows Hard. That Seattle sltiffed off a rame that ha should have won. hands down, there Is no doubt, but the truth of the matter Is. the wind was blowing harder than the fans In the grand stand Imagined and that had a lot to do with the catastrophe that befell their pets when they passed from the stage of looking like "Champeens" to the 10-esnt variety. ' After' all was over. Umpire Kane ventured the opinion that . while Seat tle went to the bad In a good thing, the wind had something to do with scattering the cards.

V ; p HARD SERIES AHEAD Senators Expected to Give Beavers Lively Battle. SOUTHERNERS DUE TODAY Sacramento Team In Fine Form for Struggle Three ex-Portland Players With Visitors Hllde brand Will Be Umpire. Under the spotlight on the baseball svage at Recreation Park this week will be featured Patsy O'Rourke. eon of the veteran Jim O'Rourke. the oldest man In bareban. and his Sacramento Senators, itie e. .nn.nr.nt-. In Portland stars him as a headllner. a successful man- t ager. Manager O'Rourke and bis tribe j or ballplayers, soma or wnom nave seen major league service, will arrive In Port land today to start the second week of baseball here this afternoon at 3 o'clock. O'Rourke has succeeded Charley Gra ham, th well-known Pacific Coast ball player, as manager of the team, although Graham Is still at the helm of the Sac ramento dub. When a mere young ster, O'Rourke took to th great Na tional game and his father took pride In th boy. retaining him as a member of hla Bridgeport, Conn, club for many years. From that city he was drafted by the Boston Americans and In turn sent by that club to Sacramento. O'Rourke Good Player. Tie Is second sack custodian and a good one. too. Around him he has placed a good Infield and In the outfield has a fast trio of men. And his pitch ing staff with Nourse. McLeod. Zam lock and Fltxgerald Is strong. Zamlock has been showing a great deal of "class" In th games down south and baa earned the good wiQ of the Bay City scribes. Sunday he shut out the Seals with only four hits. Three ex-Portland players are with O'Rourke's team. Hal Danslg. first baseman, and Jimmy Shlnn. third base man, are th ex-Beavers. And Deacon VanBuren la th third ex-Portland player. Portland fana will also recog nise Micky LaLonge, catcher, who for merly waa with San Francisco. Whether Portland will be able to grab th series from Sacramento as they did from Los Angeles remalna problematical In view of the splendid ball the Senators have been playing. True, they were set down the ladder a bit by the Seals lust week, but they nevertheless mad a grand fight of It and bid fair to make the i Beavers hurry aome. The Senators are still tn third place, having a percentage of .500. the biggest percentage the team has ever had on Ita migrations to Port land. Reavers Are Ready. Th Beavers are ready for th battle with the Southerners and Portland fans expect a great struggle. It la conceded on every hand that the Beavera will have to face th real "music" In meet- ! lng the Sacramento ball clun. There Is j not a cripple on the squad. ElCSer Ful- ! lerton or Steen will occupy the box for the Beavers and probably McLeod will pitch for the visitors. Testerday was the first day of rest the Beavers have had alnce the season opened flv weeks ago today. Some of th newcomers on the team put In the day visiting scenic places about the city.

Tourists Flay In Hard Luck. Portland's team In the Northwestern League will give a good account of Itself In the 1911 race notwithstanding Its first week of hardship, according to Out fielder Thompson and Pitcher Hoi lis. who arrived here last night from Spo kane. "Portland should have won three, or four of the a-ames. those two. 11-lrr nlng defeats being foremost In the num- J ber. . said Thompson. "Williams squad looks good and will land in the first di vision unless I am badly mistaken." Danny Sheeby has been ordered to leave Portland today to join Williams' hurling staff at Seattle.

President Taft has challenged "Chick" Evans, the Western open gnlf champion, who Is to play In the English tourney, to a match at Chevy Chase oa Friday. NAPS AFTER BALL: M'CREDIE WILLING Cleveland Offers Olson Back, but Beaver Manager Does Not Want Him. LOCAL LINE-UP SATISFIES Portland Magnate Releases Recalci trant Flayer, but Asserts He Will Xot Make Room Here for His Former Shortstop. "Hav w your permission to play Neal Ball on our club? Will return Ivan Olson to you If you desire him." Is th text of a telegram received by Wal ter McCredle from the Cleveland Ameri can League team last night. From the above It would appear that Portland s crack shortstop has failed to make good with the Cleveland team, and McCredla announced that ha has consented to allow the Cleveland club to have the services of Neal Ball, the holdout player, but says he hss no use for Olson on his Portland club. Olson was a fine shortstop In this league, but a great deal of his success waa due to his aggreaslveness, whloh he seemed able to get away with In this league, but has evidently failed to do In the faster circuit. Olaon was a poor batsman, and this fact no doubt caused him to lose out. Rodgers Makes Good. As for Neal Ball, McCredie depended upon him to take the place of Pearl Casey up to the time the Beavers got into action at Santa Maria, after which time Bill Rodgers made so good with McCredle that he did not care whether Ball reported or not, and was satisfied to hold on to the recalcitrant one In the hopes of teaching him a lesson and also of putting over a good trade In the event his club showed any noticeable weaknesses. Th more Rodgers played second base the mora he Impressed McCredle, and afttr the Waterbury recruit had h-'d iJWft that position for several weeks lr practice, McCredla asserted tht Neal Ball would have to be a world beater to take the job away fron Rodgers. In Roger Pecklnpaugh McCredle be lieves he has a better shortstop than Olson ever was, and the Portland fans who have seen the clever young player perform In the games played- here so far are satisfied that he Is a better man than tne player now with Cleve land. Olson Xot Xeeded. '1 don't want Olson when I have Pecklnpaugh, and I don't need Neal Ball when I have Rodgers." said Walter McCredle, commenting on the Cleveland club's request, "so I telegTaphed Presi dent Somers that he was welcome to i.eal Ball, and that I did not need Ol son. I think my team right now is the best club In the league, and I don't know of any place on the club that needs strengthening. I am perfectly satisfied with the complexion of the team and unless some ot the players blow up. which I hardly think is likely. I'll be able to win. out with my present club. "Neal Ball could not possibly beat this Rodgers out for the second base position, and I doubt very much If h has anything on Peck' as a shortstop. At any rate, Cleveland Is welcome to both Ball and Olaon. though I shall exercise my rights In the matter In case they decide to dispose of Ball later on. In which case they have prom ised to notify me." Olson's failure to make good with Cleveland was commented upon quite extensively by the Portland players who were his team mates on the cham pion Beaver aggregation of last season and most of the Portland players ex pressed regret at Ole's failure to "make good." RIVAL NINES TO CLASH JEFFERSON" AND COLUMBIA TO TRY FOR HONORS. Both Teams Have Aspirations for Interscholastlc League Pen nant This Senson. Columbia University and JefTerson High School will play off their post poned Intersoholastlo League baseball game on Multnomah Field this after noon.

A bets B that one team will make twice as many runs in a game as the loser. The game ends 2 to 0. Who wins? A base runner is on second, with neither first nor third occupied. While a man is at bat the catcher gives the pitcher the signal to throw to second. The second baseman does not get the signal, so when the pitcher turns to throw the ball to second he finds the basemen off their guard, and decides not to throw. The umpire calls a balk and gives tho runner third base. Is that right? Answer: No. 1 A wins. No. 2 It Is at the discretion of the umpire accord ing to his interpretation of the rules of "balking." They are as follows: Rule 34, section 1, any motion made by the pitcher while in position to de liver the ball to the bat without deliv ering it, or to throw to first base when occupied by a base runner without completing the throw; section 2, throw ing by the pitcher to any base to catch the base runner without stepping di rectly toward such base in the act of making th throw.
