4. a me Played at Veraoa.
The game thta morning with the
Los Angeles club was played at er
non and was the first one Portland has
won at the unwholesome ball part
there In two years. Tom Seston did
the pitching for the Beavers, opposing
Agnew. and gave an exceedingly good
account of himself. No less did Steen
who pitched for Portland In the after
noon. The Angels were out-pitched
and out-hit In both games.
Steen was railed upon to pitch In the
afternoon because Koestner and Hark
ness did not dress. Steen opposed Bill
Toier. Two-baggers bunched by Kappa,
Kuhn. Steen and . Chad bourne . netted
four Portland runs and the outcome of
the game was never In doubt after
Steen got by the first few Innings.
The first scores of the afternoon oc
curred Jn the fifth Inning, when Chad
bourne doubled to left and took third
on a single by Rodgera. Krueger had
singled previously and advanced on
"Chad's double and scored on the hit
by Kod iters. Bill Ste.-n had also sin
gled and tallied on Rodger's blngle.
Sleea lilts Twe-llaaisrrr.
Steen opened the, eighth with a dou
ble to left and trotted home on an
error by Metzger and a double by Rod
ger.
Heinle Ileltmuller and Ia Dillon car
fled off the batting honors for the
Angels. The first Angelic run was tal
lied in the sixth Inning. With two men
out. Stern walked Daley, who tallied
on a long two-bagger by Dillon. Dil
lon doubled again In the ninth and
scored on a clean single by Howard.
"Red" Kuhn played third base like a
veteran. Shevhan and Lindsay are still
out of the game because of Injuries.
Several speedy double plays marked
the fielding of the Portland team, and
each of the double killings pulled off
by McCredle's speedy players brought
an enthusiastic demonstration on the
part of the Angel fans.
The Portland rluh left tonight for
San Francisco. Elmer Koestner will
open against the Seals Tuesday.

ATHLETIC COUNCIL DIVIDED
Intra-Collcgtate Faction Renew Ef
forts at Oregon.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Oct. 15. (Special.) A rumor is afloat
that the agUatlon for the substitution
of lntra-colleglate for Intercollegiate
athletics at the University of Oregon
Is about to be renewed from another
vantage point. The departure of Pro
fessor Glen left a vacancy In the governing-
athletic council and according;
to the strict letter of the constitution
a new officer should have been ap
pointed by President Campbell early
In September.
His tardiness, it is Deiiereo, has
been due to conflicting pressures
which have been brought to bear upon
him by the two parties within tha
faculty ranks, the one which favors
lntra-colleglate athletics and the other

the percentage Is so great In favor of

Granting that Vernon comes out vie

win but two games of the series of
seven with San Francisco In order .to
secure premier honors. If Dillon should
slip one over on the Hapless Tiger

Any plans to extend the Coast
League season probably would meet
with very little favor from San Fran
cisco fans. For the past week, accord
ing to the Exposition City writers, but
a handful of people have been out to
see the games. Tsklng Into consid
eration the fact that Vernon was play
ing Oakland last week, and the Tigers
still had a mighty good chance to win
the pennant, the attendance does not
speak very favorably for an extended
season.

Beaver followers are wondering
whether Danny Long will relent and
lift the ban of suspension from Tommy
Tennant, his first baseman. If the
noisy Inflelder Is permitted to get
back Into the game the Seals' batting
strength will be Increased considerably.
Tennant was recently Indefinitely sus
pended for breaking training rules, and
of lata there has been much urging to
have the big fellow back at his old
stand for the last series of the season.
Manager Long declared at the time he
dealt so severe with Tennant that
Tommy would never have another

Manager McGraw has won three pen
nants for the New York Nationals and
one world's series championship. His
club won supreme honors In the Na
tional League in 1904, 1905 and 1911.
Since 1903 the Giants have never fin
ished below third place. McGraw has
always been In the fight since reorgan
ising the old Giant squad. But for a
technicality he would have won four
pennants In the last eight years.
Manager Mack has also won four
pennants and one world's series. He
brought the Athletics under the wire
In the lead In 1902. 1905, 1910 and 1911.
He has been rarely out of the run
ning, and with the exception of one
season 1908 has finished well up in
front. He Is credited with hsving de
veloped more young stars or found
tbem than any other man in either
league.

who saw yesterday's game and many

There was little doubt in the minds
of followers of the game here that
Marquard would be Manager McOraw's
pitching selection for tomorrow. Mc
Graw, however, preserved his usual
reticence on this topic. Fred Merkle,
New York's first baseman, who finished
a little lame Saturday, was said to ba

Major league records of Interclrcult

that to date the National circuit has
a Blight edge on Ban Johnson's bunch

The Chicago Cubs are the only ones
who have succeeded in winning the
world's championship twice in succes
sion, their last victory being In
1908, when they beat out the New

As expected, Walter McCredie In
dlgnantly denies the published reports
of his engagement to a San Francisco
widow.
"The story was started by an lrre
sponsible person in San Francisco," says
the Portland Apollo in the south. "I
should have been asked for a confirma
tion, at least, before the publication
of the story."
If we recall the story the widow her
self entered strenuous denial and as
said widow should know as much about
the rumored engagement as Walter,
why his "confirmation?"

President Graham, of the Pacific
Coast League, has become an advocate
of the double-umpire system. You can
hardly call him a new convert, because
he really favored the double system
from the beginning, but his hands were
so securely tied by the directors last
Winter that he could do nothing but
accede. Now he is strong in his advo
cacy of .the doubling up.
"If I am president next season I will
exert my Influence to the limit," said
he the other day in San Francisco.
"From all I can learn and see, the fans
who support the game want two um
pires, so I believe they should have
them, even though it does cost the
league a little money."
Graham's stand is welcomed. Did
It ever occur to you that If each club
would cast off that third catcher or
second utility player the money saved
would practically pay the expense of
three additional arbiters?
Time after time the need of two men
was shown In the last tight series on
the Portland diamond this Fall and the
efficiency of the double system Is best
exemplified by the way Finney and
Van Haltren got away with those tight
series.

"Players have no right to give the

"Baseball Is supported by the fans, and
if I find that the Portland players de
liberately made a farce out of that

Contest Tomorrow.
BOISE, Idaho, Oct. 15. (Special.)
The polo championship of the North
west hangs in the balance as the re
sult of the second game in the series!
of three to be played In this city be
tween polo teams representing Port
land and Boise, for the Portland team
won from Boise today In what is pro
nounoed by experts one of the fastest
exhibitions of the army sport ever
produced in the West. The score:
Portland 34, Boise hi-
The Portland team showed at its
best in today's game, played at the
Barracks polo grounds, for the field
has been specially rolled and was faHt.
Daring feats of horsemanship on the
part of the individual players with the
Portland team, Corbett, Leadbetter,
Voorhles and Tone, blocked the Boise
players from shooting goals. In the
first game, when Boise won, the field
was rough. Today it was rolled and
smooth, giving the Portland players
an opportunity to display their skill
on fast grounds.
A total of four goals were made by
Portland, while Boise was held to one.
A foul and a safety cut down the Port
land score three-quarters of a point,
while similar penalties against the one
goal made by Boise reduced the final
standing of the home team to but one
quarter. Each team now has a game to Ita
credit, Boise having won yesterday.
The third and championship contest
will be played here Tuesday.
