n.LIj CHIEFS EXPRESS VIEWS
Ta" Dillon Comments on Lurk of
Vernon Aggregation.
VOS ANOESLFS. July IS. (Special.)
"If Hogan and hla gang were to be
shot at sunrise, they'd run Into a solid
year or rain, that s the kind of luck
they play In." Captain Dillon's Indict
ment of the Vernon Titers.
"The greatet bunch of all-round
soldier in the world. I'll bet my eye
slht against a black cigar that we
make more ninth Inning flnishea than
any other ball team In the country.
Captain Hogan'a retort courteous.
Battling Nelson Plays Ball.
MEPTORD, Or July IS. (Special.)
Battling Nelson. ez-llght weight
champion, pitched the first ball In the
firm game of the four club league
aeries Sunday. Medford won from Ash
land by a score of 13 to (. Toung
Burgess, the high school pitcher did
good work for Medford and waa well
supported by both Infield and outfield.
Canuck CI?erone Doexn't Dislike
Manager's Role and Is Much
Liko . Happy Hogan in
Urging His Players.
Getting off with a Garrison stride in
his Initial efforts to lead a league base
ball club to pennant-land, Norman
Braahear has thus far achieved the full
measure of success predicted for him
by bis boon companion and former boss.
Wallace Bray, otherwise Happy Hogan,
Vernon manager.
Five years under the veteran Frank
Dillon, two with Hogan and four seasons
on Eastern circuits has been "Kitty's"
apprenticeship: and bis studious nature,
his unfailing willingness to do the right
thing, his never-ceasing efforts to solve
a new problem of the diamond have
earned for him what hundreds have
vainly tried for the opportunity to dis
play their ability at managing a bail
team.
Right now Vancouver has a safe lead
In the Northwestern chase. Should his
team keep up Its present gait and
"Brash" believes It will the landing of
stellar honors In bis first try will be a
fine feather In the ez-Vlllager's cap.
Holding the managerial reigns is far
different from taking orders, Brashear
affirms. But he enjoys tbe new role and
Is going to stick with It just as long as
they will stand for him. The people o
Vancouver think so well of the Amazon
blonde that It Is likely he will remain
leader of the Canadian club just as long
as he desires.
Manager's Role Not Bad.
'It's like this." said Brashear. "Plenty
of work, added nervous strain and lots
more to worry about. But there Is keen
satisfaction In seeing your bunch out In
front, watching the boye pull for you
and seeing one's efforts appreciated. No,
thla manager stunt isn t half as bad as
some fellows would make It.
The Canuck pilot attributes Vancou
ver's success to Its veteran. Infield, its
fine pitching staff and the clever work
of the men behind the bat.
"Honest, lad. we'd make a runaway
race of It If Miss Fortune would give
us the go-by. Just look at that
bunch of cripples. Four of them play
ing every day when they ought to be
resting." Thats typical of Brashear,
Like Jester Hogan, Brashear believes
In keeping up his players spirits, with
steady flow of cheery words wniie
on the bench. The only time he is
serious is when directing a player Just
before that worthy Is about to take
clout at the sphere. He never lets
one man pan another for failure to
execute a play. By this means lie
keeps the flag of harmony flying high,
Twelve years has wrougni a wonder
ful change In the class of baseball even
In minor leagues, declares tbe veteran
player.
' Judgment Xow Required.
"Most noticeable Is the Improvement
In the men themselves." "Kitty" avers.
'When I first broke in a man never
bothered about learning new plays or
the need of them. He was content to
play any old style as long as he re
ceived his salary. Now, however,
baseball claims men far superior men
tally. They are ever alert to detect
opposing clubs' weaknesses and batter
that particular spot unceasingly.. In
practice they are always trying a new
play. The hit-and-run. squeeze, sac
rifice and nearly all the other inside
Dlays used now were unknown when I
broko into league ball in '99. Yes,
there surely has been a wonderful Improvement.
Its too early to preaict now ine
Northwestern clubs will finish, but
Vancouver will certainly win tbe pen
nant. Sookane and Tacoma look the
strongest for the second and third po
sitions, with Seattle and Portland
fighting It out for fourth and fifth, v
Cedar Rapids Finds Him.
The only touch of high life Brashear
experienced was In his br'.ef spell with
Louisville, then in the National League.
Klttv" was a slabster those days.
That was the year the Kentucky me
tropolis suffered the fire that wiped out
the ball park. All home games were
transferred and 1& men were shipped
back to the brush. He was one of the
Ill-fated.
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, claims the dis
tinction of uncovering "Brash." A few
months with that club found his stock
booming, Louisville getting him the
following year. From there he drift
ed to Kansas City, thence to St.' Joe,
when that town was supporting high
priced artists and backing an "outlaw"
club. In 1903 he came to Seattle, then
In the Coast League. In 1904 he
joined Los Angeles, being a member
of three pennant-winning teama rep
resenting the Southland. When Ver
non was admitted and "Happy" Hogan
appointed manager. Brashear was the
first player bought by the baby club.
He played good ball for Hogan for two
seasons and "Bob" Brown, tired of the
burdens of manager, arranged with the
Vernon club for his release.
While with Los Angeles Brashear
played every position jn the team but
catcher. Always a reliable hitter, he
was placed In the outfield when the
regulars were able to hold down the
diamond. He shared honors with
"The Silver Fox" as being the most
graceful player In tha league. Time
nee ma to work but slight havoc with
his playing. He appears as fast today
as w hen he first came to the Coast.

President Graham. of the Coast

SAX DIEGO YAKS IS DENIED
President Gruliam Says Sacramento
Franchise Will Xot Go There.
LOS ANGELES, July 25. (Special.)
Judge Graham, president of the Pa
cific Coast League, denied absolutely a
story printed here today, quoting him
as saying that the Sacramento team,
of the League, was to be transferred to
San Diego. The story created some ex
citement in fandom, but when Graham
was asked for further particulars he
said the story was made of whole
cloth.
"No such change Is even contem
plated," President Graham said. "It i3
possible that Seattle will have a team
to be added to the league next year.
but this is not definite, nor certain.
That, however, is the only change now
being considered. The Sacramento
team has a franchise that is good for
two years yet and San Diego, as far
as I know, doesn't even expect a Coast
League team."
At San Francisco J. Cal Ewlng, part
owner of the Seals, denies there is any
probability that San Diego will secure
the Sacramento Club's franchise.

He declared his plans are well under

Graham said: "It will be the hest thing
Imaginable for baseball. There Is
everything in favor of such a scheme

as there will be no decision. All the

MEDFORD. Or.. July 25. (Special.)
Declaring that ex-Secretary Ballin

In other words, unless Graham fig
ures on starting his post-season ser
ies in the East immediately upon the
close of two or three of the leagues,
it would be necessary to keep the men
in condition and under pay for four
weeks' time before a start could be
made.
New Orleans and Montgomery are
leading in the Southern League race
and Baltimore and Rochester in the
Eastern. By "sicking" the pennant
winners in these two circuits on each
other for a four or six-game series In
the East, following in with the winners
of the American Association and West
ern leagues. Graham's suggestion
might be made to work out.
It would mean that the four other
teams would hie themselves to Califor
nia late in October each for a four or
six-game series with the Portland club
(pardon the cold-blooded assuredness).
while the Idle teams tangled in exhl
bition games to keep in condition.
From a financial standpoint a post
series of this kind would undoubtedly
prove a bonanza, and a pooling of re
ceipts and expenses might induce thi
Eastern tossers to make the try. In
the meantime, we await further de
tails from Judge Graham's versatile
cerebral granary.

Twenty Thousand Plunks on Paper"
Is suggested as an appropriate title for
a story on baseball bartering for 1911,
following the sale of Pitcher O'Toole,
of the St. Paul club, to PUsburg. Re
minds one of P. T. Barnum's wails:
Our latest yarn is on the bum -
The scribes seem bound to knife her;
We ned the ad; ho, hum;
Let's add another cipher.
Judge McCredle jumped Into the mil
lionaire's class the other day for a few
hours through the report that Boston
and Chicago bad offered him $7500 for
Buddy Ryan, but the eminent Van
couver Jurist immediately hopped out
of the O'Toole territory by rudely remarking:
If anybody offered me half that
amount for any man I've got on the
pay roll, I would ride a kid s veloci
pede if necessary to get to the tele
graph office with an acceptance."
V
The day following the purchase of
O'Toole for $22,500, Comlskey bought an
outfielder named Fido for $350. Fldo
may not stand as high with the Hiber
nian Society as O'Toole and may not
win as many games for the Sox, but if
barking at the umpire Is included in
the American League curriculum, Fido
should be able to give Duffy at least
$350 worth.
