McCretlle'e Efforts. Ilrlnj; About Int
protemriil In Play.
BT RWOK rAWCKTT.
If the Portland Coast League hull
brigade has the stuff for a first divi
sion finisher, the sev.n game aeries at
San Franrisco. starting today, should
prtduce the evidence. Not thai one
series decides a pennant race any more
than one proverbial swallow makes
a Summer, but the Be-tvers have suc
ceeded In drooping six out of seven
meek sett os thus far In the race and
It a high time that the highly-touted
i lass asserts Itself If It Is there In
nesrotable quantities.
When the .""en Is left Portland five
weeks aao they took along three
games of the nve played. Mi-Credle's
cKjb at that time appeared badly demoralise-!
Bancroft had not been hit
ting: Lindsay and Happs were In a
rut: Koestner wasn't going good and
Darkness Just couldn't last out an In

tion that the speckled one can be relied
upon from now on.
Seala et VII la Taae.
San Kranclseo since the last meet
ing wltn the Beavers has added Pitcher
Mr.Corry. a reliable boxman. but In
ternal and external disturbances have
gain created a chaotic uproar In the
Seal bailiwick. At leat one San Krsn-rts.-o
newspaper Is loudly clamoring
for the official guillotining of Man
ager Long, and last week's loss of the
series to Oakland, even though by but
a one-game margin, will not tend for
contldence among the henchmen of the
t:wing-Ih combination.
Sacramento has dropped eight of
lbs last 12 games four to Portland
nnd four to Los Angeles consequently
Oakland should have little difficulty
tn tossing the double edged dirk Into
Patsy O Rourke's Senators. If the
Oaks take a four-two edge on the
series and Portland Is so extremely for
tunate aa to nibble off dve games of
the seven at San Kranclseo, the Beavers
mill have lifted themselves out of the
?uhwy and within one game of the
fourth station.
The percentages would be: San in
i l.-o wins. : losses. .431; Port
land 1 wins. 2 losses. .li; Sacra
mento 24 wins. losses. .40. With
Sacramento the first prospective vic
tim of a three weeks' stay at home
ogioning one week from today, local
fans could afford tn cast off a few
ounces of grouch and go out and help
tha boys battle the Senators and the
rarly season odds.

'Ie Portland team as It now standa
looka far more formidable than when It
returned from the flret disastrous fort
night In California. Catcher Fisher's
batting should help a lot. for the
H-avers need runs and plenty of them
this year: the pitching staff Is 100

them so profitable returns. Heretofore
Cleveland haa always responded to Mc
Credle's appeals for help, but the best
Somera has done this Spring has been
to ship along two American Association
men of only ordinary ability.
In addition to a prospective change
In cellar championship, the present
week may see a new physiognomy
emerging from the pennant manhole.
Vernon Is now less than two games
behind Oakland. In fact had not the
Oaks forced out a l-to-0 victory over
Cack Henley Sunday afternoon. Ver
non would now be leading the proces
sion. .0i to .(00 per cent. It waa
tough for Henley to lose a two-hit
game. Parkins was found for Ave.
Hap Hogan's pitchers have not been
going any too well and while his team
would seem to have It on the Oaks for
October reckoning. It likely will be In
June before the Tigers supplant
Sharpe's fighters In the tlrst groove.
Hogan la counting on Ovlu, the Uni
versity of Chicago college pitcher, to
bolster up his flinging staff and when
lie reports this week Chlmmle Wbalen
will probably be dropped.
Dolly Gray has proved a disappoint
ment. Back Last he couldn't pitch
because It was too hot, but out here
be flnda It too cool. Hltt baa not been
pitching up to 1911 form and Harry
Stewart Is hopelessly out of condition.
The bantams. In fact, have kept Ver
non In the running. Hogan's games
are being won right along by Dick
Ha T less, Raleigh. Carson. Lltschl and
Johnny Kane.
Down at Oakland Manager Sharp
finally has concluded that the Oaks
will win the pennant. Bud la not a
talkative person, but be declares that
this Is his view of the situation after
meeting all the clubs. W can beat
Vernon and we'll beat them every se
ries to the close." said he.
The addition of Pitcher Jack Lively
should strengthen Sharps to some ex
tent, although Lively had only Indif
ferent success with oetrolt. Confi
dence, though. Is a big factor in base
ball and. spurred on by the thought of
his remarkable success with Wolver
ton In 1910. he may negotiate his
hoped-for "come-back." Sharp la an

Louis rinklium, fa my us left tackle on

of a few years ago, has been chosen
head coach at bis alma mater for 1912.
and, while Plnkham has Just been in
formed of the action of the athletic
board and has made no announcement
of his corps of assistants. It Js probable
that BUI Main, captain of last Fall's
squad, and George Hug. now principal
of the Eugene High School, will be
ajnons the number.
link ham formerly was a Portland
High School athlete. Later, when with
the Eugene eleven, he gained recogni
tion by being chosen aa all-Northwest
tackle for four years running. His
home Is now In Spokane, but he Is with
a surveying" party near Oswego.
Next September will find two new
football mentors In the six conference
colleges. Plnkham. at Oregon, and
Johnny Bender, at Washington State,
which has suffered through Inefficient
coaching during the past two seasons
when Osthoff had control. Bendnr de
veloped excellent teams when with the
Pullman crew, and his remarkable work
since then at St. Louis has stamped him
as on of the very best coaches In the
country.
Oae Game Scheduled.
With a game actually insured for
November 23 between the two big Ore
gon institutions the state University
and the Agricultural College football
in the Pacific Northwest Is decidedly on
the rise. These two rival Institutions
have not met since 1910. Either Eu
gene or Corvallls will get the annual
frolicking next Fall, but It Is planned
to make th game an annual event for
Multnomah Field during succeeding

Ullmore Doble will again be found
at the University of Washington: Hahn
at Whitman College. Griffith at Idaho
University and Sam Polan at the Ore
gon Agricultural College, where Pr.
Stewart, the new athletic director, also
will lend a helping hand. Coach Dolan
surprised all the experts lsst Fall by
turning out a classy team from poor
material, and the affair between the
varsity and the Aggies should be a
close and exciting one.

Arthur M. Geary, graduate manager
of athletics at the University, took a

out a few good words for the college
conference trsck championships sched

Manager Geary says Oregon expects
to win. but that the other five college
will be strongly represented. Ira Court

the sensation of the Olympic trials on
Saturday, at Stanford, will be here for
Washington, as one of the headllners.
Each school is allowed seven men.

BT JAMES H. CASSELU
"When Spokane came to Portland
for the first series of the season last
year we were six games ahead of any
other club and many thought that the
Indians would make the race a run
away affair. Today we . are three
games from atie top, but I have more
confidence In the ability of the team
to win the pennant this year than
last."
The above declaration of optimism,
made by Harry Ostdiek. manager of
the Spokane Northwestern League
teams last night, was the result of the
news that Pitchers Noyes. of San Fran
cisco, and O'LouKblln, of Oakland, top-ether
with Outfielder Johnson, of San
Francisco, had been turned over to
Spokane and would be on hand for
the series with Nick Williams' Colts
this week.
Indian Chiefs Are Hopeful.
Neither Owner Cohn nor Ostdiek
will venture prediction on the outcome
of what promises to be the ureatet
struggle in the history of the organ
lzaton. and both are loath to pick even
the contenders from the bunched field.
However, Spokane finished a good sec
ond last season, and the optimistic
attitude of the Spokanitea fixes the In
diana as their choice for the celebra
tion of the pennant-raising in 1912.
O'Loughlin, the Gonzaga College lad
of Spokane, who was signed by Oak
land, will report to the Indians today
and probably will pitch this week.
Johnson and Noyes are due within two
days, and the former Immediately will
be shoved Into the outfield, which will
mean the utility role for Walter Cart
wright. "Carty" plays any position on
the field, and while he is putting up a
nice exhibition it will be difficult to
keep such a sterling fielder and hard
hitter as tho ex-Seal from the regular
lineup.
The annexation of the Coaster trio
gives the Indians a staff of 19 men,
three In excess of the prescribed num
ber. The squsd consists of Willis,
Kraft, Cadneau, Cochran. Bridger.
Noyes. O'Loughlin and Leonard, pitch
ers; Zimmerman. Melchoir and John
son, outfielders: Myers, Davis, Wuffli,
Cooney and Shaw, infielders: Ostdiek.
and Devogt, catchers, and Cartwrlght,
utility man.
Leonard I Recalled.
"Tiny" Leonard, 'the gigantic St.
Mary's slabster. secured from Connie
Mack, has been with Walla Walla for
several weeks, but has been recalled
by the Indians. Wuffli, the slugging
lnfielder, is laid up for a week with
a strained ankle.
. This week will witness the removal
of two or three of the Reds to the
Washington State League or the Union
Association. Cohn figures on cutting
his squad to IS men eventually, using
only five pitchers, and this means that
either Wuffli or Davis, together with
three pitchers, will be weeded out.
The Indians finally have landed a
real Indian for their squad. William
Cadreau, promising; right-hander, is the
man in question. He is not a full
blooded redskin, his mother being a
Chippewa and his father a French Can-
adian. He is 2s years old. lias made
snlendid records In South Dakota and
Montana, and Is proving; a great card
over the circuit-
The Spokane management and play
ers resent the reports that "Hunky"
Shaw, their stellar thlrd-sacker, has
been suspended. Shaw has had no
trouble since he joined the club and
Manager Ostdiek says that things are
as harmonious as in the proverbial
happy family.
Fielder A. Jones, president of the
Northwestern League, went to Tacoma
yesterday to try and straighten out
the tangled financial affairs of the Ta
coma Club. Business men of the city
are anxious to keep the club there and
promise to support the team, so the
matter probably will be adjusted" with
in a few days.
"Soldier" Mauser. Spokane's way
ward slabbing phenom. Is no longer
figured among the Indian pitchers. He
carried three suitcases from Spokane
to Tacoma, claiming: that they were
checked by mistake, then Jumped the
Indians at Tacoma. and finally landed
In jail. Joe Cohn says Mauser has
more speed than any pitcher he ever
saw, but has washed his hands of the
unreliable one.
With the Northwestern League sea
eon five weeks old the race Is the pret
tiest seen In the circuit for years. Spo
kane is in fourth place, but could take
the lead by winning two straight from
the Colts and the Bees dropping two
to Victoria. Seattle, the tail-ender. Is
seven games from the top, and only
four games behind Spokane.
Rain Interfered with every game in
the Northwestern League yesterday.
This cuts the Portland series this week
to six games, necessitating a double
header when the Indians next appear
In Portland late in the Summer.
Manager Ostdiek has not decided
upon his pitcher for today, but Wil
liams haa chosen Tonneson for th
Colls.
Cohn figures the Indians the speed
iest team In the circuit, but Portland Is
generally conceded the crown In this
department, with the arrival of Cruik
shank. giving; the Colts even a strong
er position. Crulkshank arrived In
Portland yesterday and will be In left
field this afternoon for the Colts.

Players' Strike Is Called Off

-Vigorous Plea to Men.

Club Owners of League AV1II Hold

PHILADELPHIA, May 30. Because
they did not want to see Frank Navin,
president of the club, suffer for any
action on their part, the players of
the Detroit American League baseball
club called off their strike today and
agreed to play the regular, scheduled
game in Washington tomorrow, with
out the services of Tyrus Cobb.
Thus ends one of the most extra
ordinary situations that has ever been
brought about in organized baseball.
In announcing their decision to re
turn, the players said they want It dis
tinctly understood they still will fight
for the principle involved and for
which they struck.
In returning to the club the players
received no concessions from Ban
Johnson, who had indefinitely suspend
ed Ty Cobb for attacking a spectator
in a game in New York last week.
Navin Promises to Help.
Mr. Navin. however, promised the
men that If they returned he will do
his utmost to have Cobb reinstated
as quickly as possible; that he will do
all he can as a club owner to have the
American League give better protec

unsportsmanlike conduct by spectators
and that he will see that none of the
players will suffer any financial loss
by reason of any fines that may be
imposed upon them.
The special meeting of the American
League will be held tomorrow at 11
A. M.. at which the clubowners will
decide what punishment, if any, shall
be inflicted upon the strikers.
The question of a fine against the
club, it is expected, will also be taken
up by the league.
When Mr. Johnson was told that
some of the players had intimated that
Cobb might be reinstated Wednesday
or Thursday he said they had "an
other guess." Mr. Johnson would not
talk about the action cf the men in
determining to return to the field.

and then conferred with the players.
Mr. Navin said it was a question of
whether the players or the club own
ers would run the league.
Mr. Navin made a personal appea
to his players. He told them he was
the principal sufferer in the affair and
he did not feel it was Just to him.
Cobb told the players he felt that he
was responsible for what had oc
curred and that, while he appreciated
the action of his teammates, he felt
that for the sake of Mr. Navin, who
had always treated them well, the
players should reconsider their action
and return to the club.
After the- conference several of the
Detroit men said now that the' ques
