Although none of his teammate has head from Buddy Rvan. the hard-hit ting Beaver likely will be given a con tract with Cleveland calling for 1350 per month ir 15100 for th six months American League season. Vean Gregg was given a similar contract when h kalsomtned for th Naps In 110. and Itlll teen's agreement carries a Ilka figure this year. Buddy Is wintering .In Ienver. e Frank Chance, th peerless leader of the Chicago Cubs, ha askd for waiv ers on two of his heavers Keulbach and Mclntyre but this does not neces sarily mean that he really contem plates letting them go. Asking for , nalvers Is a habit of th Los Angeles orange grower. Every season he 'threatens Keulbach with the minors, and big Ed Immediately pitches gllt- . edged ball. It may be that Chance fig ures th two veterans fit for the scrap heap at last. In which ease they will probably be found with Loulavllie, but the waiver rule Is a handy convenience anyway. Indeed the waiver system Is useful In more way than one. For Instances there are those who whisper that whn Manager McCredle. of Portland, asked for the passage of Krueger to th Southern I-eague. recently, he did so knowing that Krueger detested th warmer clime, and with a view to mak ing him willingly accept th 130 cut In salary offered on hi 1)1 J contract. That Mac flgurea Krueger a valuable man was shown when he refused to let Ver non have him when llogan declined to waive. Tom Murray's rase Is probably not parallel, for McCredle Is apparent ly not at all satisfied with the diminu tive backstop's habits of living. In th big leagues th waiver sys tem has still another angle. If a man ager desires to get a promising recruit out of th league In order to send him to the minors for further Instruction, he Immediately asks waivers on a hatch of players, which Includes both some of his best men and the recruit. In Indignantly refusing to waive on tf- veterans the opposing clubs often let the youngster slip through, and the purpose of the maneuvering has been accomplished. KHU That the Northwestern League has the best umpire) staff In the history of " tne Class B organization. Is th decla ration of Walt McCredle. Mac says Toman Is a better man than any of the six In the Coast League, and should never have been let go out of the clr- ' cult. He lays his shunting to the .Northwest to a row with Ewlng during the days of his ploneershlp In the Coast League. I played In th big brush when Augle Moran was holding the Indi cator." said Mac yesterday. "He will make Jones a good man. "This Toman makes a hit with me, though. He is the best man on balls and strikes that we're had la th league alnce I struck the Coast. Toman umpired In the I r.ion Association In 111. but finished the season under the double-umpire system last Fall with the Coast League. Chadbourne remarked to me once that he waa the only man hd struck all season that called balls and strikes right, and Chadbourn has a good eye. too." In a letter to a friend on th Coast. Harry Wolverton. ex-manager of th Oakland club and now manager of tie New Y'ork Highland-, predlcta that Pitcher Flater and Outfielder Patterson will be the surprise of the American league during the coming campaign. "Patterson came to the Oaks last " Fall after a siege of sickness, and was down SO pounds In weight. savs Wolverton. "But wait until 11!. and -Patterson will surprise the natives, or -.1 am badly mistaken. As for Flater, he was the champion hardluck gunner of th broadside division. He lost game after game by one run. alt low score contests. He Is due for an even - break, and will prove much better than he la given credit for." A story In a San Francisco paper Is lo the effect that Wolverton nursed a grievance against Hap Hogan for two months last Fall without uttering a pe-p. and then primed his Oaks for - that final series of th season when the transbay crew forever knocked the pennant hopes out of Hogan s Ver non contenders. Wolverton believed that Hogan was responsible for his trouble with Hart - Macrart. hoping to secure Magrart In - a deal after the blowup.

Today's shoot was the 12th event of the tour and San Francisco has now won nine, Portland two and Spokane one. When it is impossible to win by scoring better than 93 per cent, it will be seen that the shooters representing the last two cities have been playing in hard luck. Pete Holohan was high man for the day. He broke 99 of bis 100 targets, and had an Incomplete run of 90 con secutive breaks at the finish of the competitive match. In the effort to make it 100 straight, he attempted to shoot ten additional targets, but missed the fifth one and discontinued. Holohan was Joined this morning by his son, Guy. who has succeeded W. A. Kobertson as the second member of the Portland team. The younger Holohan broke with a score of 90 breaks In the century run.

"Oregon has been passing up an enormous money-making Industry for years," said H. E. Deputy, of Long Beach, a representative of the South western Washington Development League, yesterday, referring to the possibilities of cranberry culture In the marshes of the Pacific seashores. Mr. Deputy returned yesterday from a tour of the East, where he had been sent under the auspices of the Southwestern Washington Development League and the Portland Commercial Club, to study Eastern methods of handling the cran berry business. "Last year." he said, "the Pacific Cnast used S460.000 worth of cranber ries. The percentage of berries raised on the Pacific Coast was, however, so small as to be almost negligible. Tet if we raised tha cranberries there la no reason why we should not get the loan's share of the big sum that is spent in the Pacific States alone for them, for we have an advantage of $2.25 a barrel In freight rates over the growers that must ship from the East." Mr. Deputy said that he had learned from his visits to the leading cranberry marshes In the East that the advantage in the market lies entirely with the Western growers, did they but awake to the possibilities that lie in the busi ness for them. "Oregon and Washington growert are producing now from three to four times as much per acre as the Eastern growers are able to produce, and our Western berries are grown without cul tivation," said Mr. Deputy. While in the East Mr. Deputy visited A- D. Makepeace, who has become a multl-millonaire In 42 years as a grower of cranberries. Mr. Makepeace shipped to the Pacific Coast the first cranberry vines that were planted here Mr. Deputy believes that an effort should be made to arouse greater In terest In the growing of cranberrie and to encourage farmers to plant ex tensively In the marshes of Oregon and Washington.
