Washington High defeated the Port

day afternoon on the Academy floor
by an . overwhelming score, this time
61 to I. Portland Academy did not
lack In spirit, but 'the weight and

rather uninteresting, neither team dis

In the first half Portland Academy
failed to make a field basket,' the one

In the last period Butler, a new man
at center, saved tha team from goalless
Ignominy.
Edwards and Irle, as usual, did most

TBT ROSCOE FiWCETT.
When the Porland Coast League

are of, the tried and true variety ana
win iinrinuhteriiv make the team.
Omitting this trio from the mess oi
talent. Manager McCredle says he will
be satisfied ii only two of the rookies
make good. As a matter of fact. If he
can develop a pitcher and either an
Infielder or n catcher, ho will figure

who goes to the Chicago White Sox;
Shortston Pecklnpaugh. now with
Cleveland, and Second Baseman Rodg-

All told Portland's 16 recruits rep'
resent an outlay of approximately
69800. Osborne, an Oregon twiner, De
lng the only non-purchased man. This
new talent will, therefore. Just about
offset the amount secured from the

from Cleveland for the first three
above mentioned, while the Phillies

Portland still has a player or twocom

Northwestern Team Convenient.
The convenience of the Portland
Xorthwestern League team is best em
nhaalxed hv a casting of the optica
over the above list, for at least six of
the bunch will ultimately land witn
Nick Williams' Class B squad. With
this absolute market for his prospects
close at hand, Walter McCredle quite
naturally' finds It a good Investment to
corral In a huge assortment oi young'
aters.
"These young fellows are the men
I'm looking for." said McCredie yes
terday. "Whenever a team is re
cruited from old material you can Just
about presage what it will do during
a season. But when you have plenty
of green timber, let every manager be

hrtter than ever before, because they
are Improving, while the older heads
slump a little, it anytning, over pre
vious form.
"Yes. I will be Immensely pleased to
land two of my newcomers," added
McCredle. "I don't include Doane,
Stleger and Howleyt In the list of
youngsters," because all nave Deen

surprised to hear that on. of my vet

Olson's equal. Many of the fans gnashed
their molars when I announced that
Bodgers would fill Casey's shoes. Well,
Rodgers proved to be the greatest In
fielder of the season. Look out for
the young fellows. That's all I have to
say.
New Pitchers Canght.
Mac is still on the look for new
pitching material, but matters are pro
arresslng more slowly than he had fig
urcd. He had two men lined up early
In the week, but the completion of th.
deal is as distant as ever, in tne mean

McCredle has written to Charles Frank
and hasamade him an offer. Veasey

rated as a good gunner.
Manager McCredle smiled yesterday
as he opened a New York paper and
noted that Harry Wolverton was In th
salary slashing business st New York,
This Is the kind or a letter tne man
ger of the Highlanders sent to one

"Dear Sir: Last year you received

HAS WOX CHAMPIOXSHIP.
Manhattan Cluh Can Tie Locals by
Beating 11 S3 on Friday, but
Mark Is Above Average.
Although the Manhattan Revolver
Club does not shoot until Friday, the
Portland Revolver Club believes that
the score of 1132, which it mado against
the above team on Monday night, will
bring to the local men the champion
ship of the United States Revolver As

match. Captain Armstrong, of the local
team, kept the scores secret until yes
terday. Manhattan shoots Springfield, an
other strong team in th league, at
the same time it meets Portland. If it
should win both matches it would then
tie with Portland for first place. On
the other hand. If it drops either match
the Portland team will be the cham
pion. .
