Brief Sporting Note.

Franolsco In 1908.

Jack Lester, th Northwestern "whit

President Al Baum Is considering th

ENTIRE TEAM LOOKS GOOD
Portland to Carry Six Twirlers.
Only Two of 1910 Champions,
Kroeger and Kappa, to Be With
the 1012 Pennant Chasers.
BT ROSCOS FAWCETT.
Walter McCredle, manager of tha
Portland Coasters, yesterday gave out
th news that a deal will be closed
within tb next two or three days for
two new pitchers for the champions.
Mao hasn't entirely settled the de
tails and shuns publicity In the mean
time, but did vouchsafe that both are
young fellows of strapping build, and
that he expected to atart the season
with as grood a pitching staff as ha
had at the close of the 1811 pennant
race. Last Spring at the opening of
hostilities he had only Koestner,
Steen and Seaton of his regulars, Hen
derson, Haxkness and Lamllne being
added to the string In mid-season.
"I'll have a 2-to-l better staff of
heavers than -a year ago- at Spring
training time," said Mac. "The fans
will be tickled when I announce my
prospective newcomers: Both are
youngsters In their prime and that's
the brand I want. None of your ma
jor veterans Dolly Graya and that
sort for Portland.
Six Pitcher to Be Carried.
"This year I expect to carry six
pitchers. I now have Henderson,
Koestner. Lamllne, Harkness and
Stleger, whom I figure as fixtures, and
promising recruits, Byrd, Osborne and
the two I mention. Shouldn't have
much trouble In rounding out on six
from that hard, eh? This Massachusetts
man, Greenwell, doesn't want to coma
West and refuses to. answer letters.
I don't expect him -at the start of the
season, anyway, and I don't know as
I will be able to use him at all after
my sextet gets In working order."
W. W. McCredle, president of th
local club, believed that his nephew
with the pennant habit will have an
ven better team this year than the
on which copped the flag In 1910 and
again In 1811. He points out that th
catching staff Is about on a par, the
pitching staff superior, the outfield
atronger If anything, and the Infield
well supplied. He says Stleger, the
new pltoher. Is rated aa a crack first
baseman and batter and. In view of
this, he entertslns no fears of Bill
Rapps kicking over the traces.
Only Two et 1910 Teaaa Left.
A recapitulation of the ' 'Portland
lineups for th past two or three sea
sons backs out the Portland leader'a
argument for th younger element, for,
while It may sound surprising, Mae
now has only two of tha great coterla
of stars who won the pennat for the
Beavers In 1910, a little less than 17
months ago Bill Rapps at first base
and Artie Krueger tn the outfield.
In spite of the kaleidoscopic switch
ing of playing talent, however, the
Beavera cam back with a aecond, bunt
ing In 1911, so even without the serv
ices of Pitchers Steen and Seaton,
Catchers Murray and Kuhn. Infleldera
Peckinpaugh and Sheehan and Out
f'elder Ryan for the 1912 outlook Is
not at all dreary.
It may be Interesting to the fans
to note the disposition of th 1910 pennant-winning
combination. Of the
backstops. Fisher Is with Cleveland
and Murray with St. Paul; pitchers,
Gregg. Steen and Krapp with Cleve
land, . Seaton with Philadelphia. Gar
rett . with the Portland Northwestern
team, and Bolce out of sight; lnfleld
ers, Olson at Cleveland, Casey, Coast
League umpire, Rappa with Portland,
Sheehan reinstated by Brooklyn and
a Sacramento possibility, and Hetling
with Oakland; outfielders, "Buddy"
Ryan with Cleveland, Ort with Boise,

and Krueger still whiffing Portland

Seven of the 15 "dear departed"
have gone to the major leagues, three
are still In class AA, while five suc
cumbed to the wolf pack that feeds
on stiffening Joints and diamond re
trogression. Not too dull a symposium
after all. Is it?
Bill Steen. who la one of the 1911
graduates to the circuit where cellu
loid collars have meandered to the dis
card, received notification yesterday to
leave Portland on Friday and report to
the Cleveland Naps at Mobile, Ala., as
soon ss puffing locomotives can land
him there.
"Steen ha verything that a iuo
cessful pitcher needs In the way of
delivery and assortment and If the
Napa handle him right he will stick,
sure as the world," said Walt Mc
Credle. discussing Bill's chances in tha
big show.
McCredle yesterday enjoyed a visit
from George Capron, th ex-Minnesota
football star, who played a year In the
Northwestern League with Seattle and
a portion of 1910 with Vancouver when
be was released because of injuries
and an obesity -of tha monthly salary
check.
Caproai Once Near-Beaver.
Capron's visit recalls an amusing In
cident Involving the Portland mogul.
McCredle, it appears, had hla eye on
a youngster In the Cotton States
League at Meridian, Mlaa., named Itaub.
Memphia finally landed him and he
was bought by the New York Giants
th same Fall after shattering th
fences around the circuit. Raub failed
to stick with McQrew and waa sold to
Seattle where h played, under his
real name. Capron, for In the meantime
he had concluded his allotted three
years In atheltics at the University of
Minnesota.
"Yes, sir, I very nearly landed In a
Portland uniform," said Georgle, who
Is now a realty man at Klamath
Falls and out of baseball for keeps.
"I have In my pocket a contract from
Barney Ireyfuss, of Pittsburg, who
says that there are only flv south
paws In th National League. I guess
h knows that I can murder the right
banders. My wlf no, however,
so It's m for the bleachers. I waa
man-led In Portland, by th way, and
tried to keep It a secret but the papers
found It out and her folk nearly had
a fit didn't want her to marry a ball
player, you see."
Capron predicts that his brother,
Ralph, the Minnesota quarterback,
will some day land In the big league
as a ahortstop.
McCredle Talks f Trade.
Walter McCredle. of the Portland
Beavera. believes both Washington and
the New York Highlanders benefited
by the trade of Jack Knight, of the
