In peaklng of the matter. Long did
not mine hi words. He said that
Tennant haa been a dlaorganlser all
eaaon and that he haa not been giv
ing the club his best efforts, owing to
a little personal feeling which exists
between him and Captain "Kid" Moo
ter. Although Tennant haa merely
been suspended for th thre remain

most likely will be traded during th
Winter month, aa Long has no us
for any player who hasn't hla heart In
his playing, so Tennant la due to walk
the plank.
If no satisfactory deal eran b ar
ranged whereby the Seals will receive
a man who la decided to b worth a
much aa the red-hatred first baseman.
Tennant will have to play th bush cir
cuit, aa he will be Ineligible to play

-Stare of the midnight league can
not shine on the diamond In th day

ATHLETICS PICKED
Br FIELDER MS
Mack Has More Good Pitchers
and More "Class" Than
Giants, He Thinks.
BEAVERS, ARE IN FAVOR
Ex-Leader of Chicago While iWx
Scoffs Idea That California Team--
Will "Fix It" for Vernon
to Win Pennant.
Forecasts of tha world's series ar In
order. To satisfy a general craving
for advance "dopa." Fielder Jonas
has consented to nam his choice for
supreme baseball honors.
By all tha gods of "dope" and per
sonal opinion, tha Athletlce ahould re
peat their performance of 110. says
tha wily ax-leader of the Chicago
White box. who la now a Portland lum
ber baron.
"No doubt about It," rhapsodises
Jones, dismissing th subject as If the
title was already won. "Superior In
tha pitching ranks, class In the batting,
and an Infield the equal of which never
plowed the turf."
That'a the way tbo maker of a band
of "hltless wonders" Into world's stars
sums It up.
Now don't get tha Idea that tha Chi
cago idol opines that Connie Mack has
men better than Matty and Marquard.
He still hold Mathawson aa the Ideal
fllngar. and having never seen "the
Marquis" In action, he hesitates to say
that Philadelphia ha a twirler his su
perior. He takes tha stand that Matty
and "Mark" constitute McQraw's staff,
while Connie haa five men of un
doubted ablMty to hurl against th Na
tional League leader.
"Mathewson may be able to repeat
Ms feat of 1905. but I doubt It very
much," said Jones. "No man can last
forever. Not that Matty 1 a has been.
Far from It. But he will have a dif
ferent band to deal with: a bunch of
youths who hit the ball on the nose all
the time.
"Ths Athletics have tha edg In the
batting. Also the Quakers have an In
field that well. It Is the best I ever set
eyes upon.
"Now take Jack Coombs. He has a
ball all hla own. He has just as much
a copyright on It' as Mathewson baa
on his celebrated fade away. It Is an
overhand drop, atarted high, and
crosses the plate Just about shoulder
height. Unless you are used tolt. It
Is a complete puxzler.
"One could go on Indefinitely arguing
why the Athletics should win. There
are plenty of reasons why they should
oop, but they might go to pieces at
th critical moment Who can tellT
.-
Jones' prowess aa a "dopeater" Is
well known. When th season, began
he picked Phllodelphls, Detroit, New
York; Cleveland, Boston. Washington,
Chicago and EL Loula In the order
named. Now, with the season nearlng
Its finale they stand pretty nearly as
he picked them. The only ones upon
which he erred badly were Chicago
and Waahlngton. Instead of being in
seventh place, tha Sox rest in fifth.
In the National, ha forecast New
Tork and Chicago, with Cincinnati as
tha runner-up,
e e e
Listen to Jones for a few minutes,
you doubters, and your courage will
come back. Fielder Jonea Is confident
that the Bearers will come out Tlctor
tous In the coming series with Ver
non. "Portland figures to win." says
Jones. "Furthermore, the Beavers will
win. They have tha class and it will
tall.
"It Is amusing to hear a few say that
It Is all fixed" for Vernon to win the
pennant, that the California teams will
see to IL Piffle I It's a physlclal Im
possibility. The minute a team begins
to lay down' It will be noticeable. Let
anything like that happen and baseball
wouldn't last 15 minutea. It's fighL
fight, fight and hard, too every min
ute. "Undoubtedly th pennant rests on
the coming set-to In Los Angelea. The
team that win tha series looks Ilk the
leader."
e e
McAleers plan to send another
picked team against th Athletics be
fore they meet the Giants is a good
thing for Philadelphia, thinks Jones.
"It will hurt Mack's men a great deal
If they slow up."
Comlskey's White Sox ought to come
clean In the Chicago series, says Jones.
"Th Sox pitchers are rounding to
and the team Is hitting hard. They
should beat the Cubs. The Sox will
hit tha Cub pitchers, but I think
Duffy'e box men will hold the Na
tionals safe."

Famous $10,000 Race.
LEXINGTON. Oot.' . Main Leaf, the
son of Main Sheet, won the first two
heats of the Kentucky futurity, the 1-year-old
classic of the trotting world,
here today, only to lose the third heat
to Atlantic Express and have the race
go over until tomorrow as unfinished.
A rather alow track, made so by recent
rains, undoubtedly helped Main Leat
the going offsetting the disadvantage
under which he was laboring with a
lam leg. The race la worth $10,000.

COACHES TO MEET
Football Men Will Confer in
Portland on 1911 Rules.
NEXT TUESDAY IS DATE

of the Gridiron.
BT BOSCOE FAWCKTT.
Misconceptions of and alterations In
tha 111 football ruls hav been caus
ing no end of worry among Northwest
ern coaches, officials and players, for
a minute scanning of the rule book dis
closes an Infinite number of inconsis
tencies, contradictions and ebony-tinted
paragraphs.
Last Fall coaches and officials were
confronted with the same difficulty and
hero In the Northwest, where there Is
no central body to recommend a unani
mous interpretation of the vague sec
tions, officials were forced to call
coaches and captains together befors
every big game for an agreement on
the playing rules.
With a view to ameliorating condl
tlona and promoting unanimity, the
coaches of the Portland high schools
j . li- nodded to Issue a
call for a conierenoe 01 nurmwcic,u
officials and players for next Tuesday
night at 8 o'clock, In the rooms of the
Portland Press Club, In the Elks" build-
liur.
Coaches W. J. Warner, of the Univers
ity of Oregon; Bam "Dolan, of Oregon
Agricultural College; Dr. Sweetland, of
Willamette; Archie Hahn, of Whitman,
and other college strategists have been
notified and efforts will be made to urge
their attendance. Th Invitation is
extended to Include Multnomah, college
and hie'h school players and all those
Interested In the new rules.
"The plan la an excellent one and
meets with my hearty Indorsement,"
stated Coach Rlnehart, of Lincoln High
School, yesterday. "I have studied th
rules as assiduously, perhaps, as any
other football man in the West, but I
must admit I am slightly tangled on
one or two points. I believe, too. that
officials should get together and agree
on th interpretation of various rules
that caused considerable wrangling last
season."
This conference will be similar to the
Middle Western and Eastern sessions
and it Is probable that the changes
adopted by the Eastern mentors at the
recent meeting In New Tork, presided
over by Walter Camp, of Tale, editor
of th guide book, will be adopted.
These additions and expurgations hava
been found advisable and necessary and
are vouched for by- the framer of the
guide. ....
Following a long-etstablished football
custom, the various schools and colleges
have been trying out their players in
contests with smaller and weaker Insti
tutions so as to ascertain what they are
capable of under the strain of actual
combat .
These preliminary games Are now in
the passing and th Important contests
will be ushered in within another fort
night. As th season advances, each
gam will take on more of a champion
ship tangle. The change in the rules
making less stringent the penalties for
uncompleted forward passes haa led the
critics to believe that thla year's foot
ball will be featured by many shifts
and much hurling of the ovaL
Rule 19, section four, which provides
that any pass striking the ground,
either before or after having been
touched br a player of either side, shall
be automatically uncompleted, virtually
guarantees a freer use of the forward
pass, for a team stands almost no
chance of losing possession of the ball
on the first or second downs.
Then again, under the 1910 rules, an
uncompleted pass penalty was imposed
from the point of the pass which was
necessarily from five to seven or eight
yards behind the line of scrimmage.
This season the penalty of an added
down must be exacted from the point of
the last down, which lessens the dis
