' When Walter McCredie and his hapless Beaverettes Journeyed south, leaving behind Fred Lamllne In place of Dare Gregg, slabster brother of the famous Vean. Nick Williams couldn't resist the temptation to grab Ms 1911 twirling atar. He regretted the step after Fred had reeled through two and one-third Innings at Vaughn-street park yesterday afternoon, but before his regret took physical shape four Canucks had croased the pla'e. The quartet of registrations proved the downfall of the Colts, and the Bees won. 4 to 1. scoring a percentage column retaliation by Jumping ahead of the one-day leaders. Spokane s defeat ' at Vancouver placed the Bees back at the top again. While Lamline's wlldnens was the primary cause of the defeat, the Mlchl gander passing Ave men during the short period be graced the center of the diamond, be had several accom plices In the tumbling skit. Two days of errorless ball proving that the Colts are capable of that brand of diamond procedure. Speas and Kibble chose the third Inning, the most erratic of Lam line's short regime, to demonstrate that they can mishandle the ball, fpeas dropped an easy fly and Kibble Juggled a sacrifice bunt, while Coltrln. whose I other play were all of the sensa Itlonal order, rid his system of an 3verdue boot by dropping a pop-fly in (the next round.

He was Invincible In the pinches, kept his hits well scat tered and had splendid control of the ball. i However, the stellar pitching of the game was offered by Southpaw Klein, the youngater Williams secured from Seattle. He entered the game with the rbasea full and one man gone In the third frame, forced Rawllngs to hit Into a double play, and then held the Bee wreckers to two bits for the re maining alz Innnlnga He walked two men and bit two but no more than four men fared him In any of the ; rounds, the Bees falling easy prey to hla deceptive drop. It was Victoria's turn for a perfect fielding performance, and the fans 'rooted In vain for a rally which would turn defeat Into an uphill victory. The last few periods found the Colts hit ting Narveson's offerings hard but they went Into the hands of the outfielder, and the Nicks expired waiting for the bobble which would signalise the "break." In the first Inning five Colts faced Narveson. two of them hitting safely, but that was the high water .mark for the day. with Strait the only nan to pass third and his Jaunt around 'Ka K . nn. ..I.t ..I i LaaaUa) Always la Trexabl. 5 Lamllne waa wobbly In the first In- nlng, a sensational stop by Coltrln .probably saving the Colts from a score. and in the second was worse.

Then Lamllne failed to agree 'with Augle Moran aa to strikes and Kennedy was forced across the plate for the fourth and last Bee run. Klein took up the burden and the double play finished the disastrous i frame.

Patsy O'Rourke Is willing to right to bet milestones to monuments that he wins the series and breaks all past records. This all because the Senators won a I to 0 game from the Portland bunch this afternoon and did It handily. Mc Credlej tonight Is disgusted. He has only one rel thing to be thankful for and that U that Olrot proved himself a capable pitcher. He is wild and will need coaching, but be gives every evi dence of being another Tom Seaton. an equal of Koeetner and Henderson, when said Henderson Is of sound and sober mind. "Tell the Portland fans to watch the Northwestern team now and to watch us later." said McCredle tonight. Girot Forces la Ran. Taken all In all. the visitors played a good game. Eliminating the sixth inning, when Girot was way up In the air and handing out walks to men who were perfectly willing to run, it was a good game. In that sixth Inning the Senators made their bone run. It was the only run of the game and 1t won the game for Sacramento. Kreits had grounded out. Rodgers to Rapps. Williams then lined out one of the few clean hits of the game. After this Girot went up. He walked Mad den. Then Shlnn popped out. After this O'Rourke and VanBuren waited patiently for wide ones and their pa tience forced Williams home with the lonesome tally. From then on It was a tight game. Twice Sacramento had men put out at the plate and once a man reached third on Doane's Inexcusable error. Once Doane reached third when he rapped for three bags, and Girot put out pretty double, but they were unable to complete the circuit. Ralph Kreits Hart. Ralph Kreits, the new catcher pur chased by Sacramento and sorely need ed by the team, suffered a compound frarture of the middle finger of his right hand. He was lilt by a pitched ball and had to retire from the game. Some excitement was created when the grandstand caught fire, but an amateur bucket brigade quickly ex tlnguished the blase. McCredle sound ed the alarm, the smoke first being noticed over the bench occupied by the Portland players. The score: Portland I 6acramento AO.II.PO.A.E.' AO.H.PO.A.E.

WILLIAMS SEES HOPES GO Colts Lose Almost Every Chance of Getting San Francisco Player When He Sails In and Hits Five Times In Two Games. When Nick Williams, manager of the Colts, heard that Howard Mundorff lined out five hits In two games for San Francisco Sunday he threw up his hands and virtually acknowledged that his hopes of securing the hard-hitting "Rueslan" have gone aglimmering. "Just our luclt to have 'Mundy' go in and star at the moment he was ready to be turned over to us." woefully ex plained the Portland leader. last night." I worked hard to get him up here and everything was fixed for his transfer, when he mussed up plans with bis hit ting. He is a grand player and just the man we need to make the Colts a combination hard to beat in this race." Nick wrote another letter to Danny Long regarding Mundorff last night and expects to hear definitely within a few days regarding the player. The fact that Long has not called off ne gotiations leads him to believe that there Is slim chance to grab the ex Northwestern star, and he is going to work that chance to the limit. Nick turned Pitcher Thomas over to Centralis, of the Washington State League, last night, and with the recent acquisition of Fred Lamllne will be compelled to lop another salaried em ploye off the staff if the ls-man limit Includes the manager. Nick Is confi dent that Lamllne will round Into shape soon. ' Veasey, the Southerner turned over to the Colts by the Beavers, will be sent in for his warm-weather debut today. He needs plenty of warm weather to get the best out of his arm, ana jvick is confident that the past three sunny days have turned the trick.
