The Portland Colts secured a firmer grasp on first place in the strenuous Northwestern League pennant - race yesterday afternoon and drove tha Spokane Indians Into the cellar, but it was only after 11 Inning of see-aw ball had returned the Portlanders win ners, 6-i. When timely hitting, splendid work on the paths and gratuitous Bases Is sued by Carl O'Loughlln, the Indian moundman. had given the Colts a 6-0 lead In the sixth Inning;, there was no thought of a marathon game. But the visitors came to life with a start In the seventh. Phil Cooney driving in three runs and scoring a moment later on a fielder' choice. Then In the ninth the speed of "Hap" Myers, following a single and followed by a sacrifice fly, tied up the game. Moore Drlvea la Winning Run. Manager Nick Williams, barred from Thursday's extra-Inning affair, started the victory spelling fusillade In the eleventh, resting at second from a long drive to left with one out. Moore then ripped one to right, Williams scoring, when Melcholr let the ball get past him towards the fence. O'Loughlln. the pitcher turned oyer to Spokane by Oakland, did not far so- well as Noyes. his ex-Seal contem porary of Thursday. During the four Innings he officiated for the Redskin the Colts sent four men around the circuit. Leonard, his successor, of tha underhand delivery, allowed only five hits in his seven-Inning trial, but his wlldness paved the way for a Colt score In the sixth, and the bunching of two healthy blngles In the final period robbed him of the chance to win the uphill oontest. Veasey Holds Indiana to Seventh. Veazey held the Indians to four bln gles until the seventh inning, pitch ing only a fair brand of ball, which required a sensational stop by Crulk shank and a perfect peg to the plate to give him a scoreless record in the third Inning. In the seventh he was almost driven from the mound, the five-run lead of the Colts alone sav ing him from an Immediate walk to the bench. In that round Devogt, the first man up. doubled to left, and the Southerner promptly filled the sacks by bitting Leonard and walking Myers. Phil Cooney then figured as the pinch hitter with a drive to right. Frie fussed around with the ball and be fore It was returned to the lnfleld three men. had scored and Cooney was at third, recuperating from his long sprint. Phil scorerl a moment later when Zimmerman hit to the Infield. "Hap" Myer. tho fellow who prom ises to be the most feared base-runner In the league this season, singled In the ninth, stole second, then went to third on Cooney's fly to Speas, and soored on Zimmerman's sacrifice fly to the same spot. Kibble's Throw Dangerous. With the score tied and one regu lation game chalked up on the score board. Doty, the lad who accompanied Veasey from the Beaver training camp to the Colt quarters, was sent In to finish, Veasey retiring from the bat ting when Harris was sent In In the ninth. A splendid pickup of Kibble's wild throw In tho tenth was all that aaved Doty from defeat, but he tight ened up in the eleventh and the timely clouting of the Colts gave him a vic tory. The Colts hit safely five times In the first five Innings and each hit was converted into a run. In the second Inning Nick Williams scored, negotiat ing a double steal with Kibble, a hit. pass and fielder's choice placing men on the paths. In the third Mensor sin gled to left, stole second, went to third on an Infield out. and scored when Cooney booted the ball. A walk, two singles and a saerlflce hit scored Fries and Williams In the fourth Inning. In the sixth, with two gone. Moore and Kibble were hit by pitched balls and Coltrin scored the former with a single to right Tha score: SDOkane Portland AB.Il.m.a.1.' one ban set through him and luitsled an other so long that it waa impossible to play for the plate. Zimmerman mlajudyed Speas fly in the eighth and the Colt scored a two-banger. H. stole thlra, but failed to reach homo, two infield flies and strikeout following. Leonard stretched hlmaelf almost eight feet Into the sir to nb Myers' hich toss to first in tho sixth inning. He stands six feet six Inches without elevating his glove. Mensor Is undoubtedly a speedier man on ths strslghtsway than Myers, but the tat ter's success is due to the wonderful leads be takes off the bags.

Everett Booked for Sunday Games if Switch -Is Made TIgerville Fails to Support Team. Fielder A. Jones, president of the Northwestern League, has issued a call for a meeting of the magnates in Ta coma on May 30. Decoration day, at which time it is not altogether un likely that the City of Destiny will be "decorated" with a black mark across her baseball escutcheon. "Unless Tacoma gets busy and shows that It can finance a team we will take the franchise and place It in Seattle similar to the Vernon-Los Angeles ar rangement In the Coast League." said one official who la pretty close to what's on tap. 1 . . . In this event the franchise would be taken over by the league and the schedule revamped to some extent. At present Victoria plays four games of her home week's schedule at Seattle. These games would have to be trans ferred back to Victoria, giving Watte let a full complement at home, while the Tacoma games, with the exception of Sundav, would all go to Dugdale's park. Tacoma already plays three games per week at Seattle. Everett -is booked for the Sunday contests in case the radical switch in ownerships is made. President Jones believes Tacoma peo ple will straighten out the financial tangle In which Rothermal has plunged himself. Evidently Shreeder, the past "angel," spoke truthfully when he said this Spring that he was out of base ball for 1912. Mount Angel Ready for Fray. MOUNT ANGEL. Or.. May 24. (Spe cial.)
