CHEHALIS. Wash, July 22. (Spe
cial if you have ever ventured into
a dark pantry and had a pan of warm
milk descend abruptly upon your brow,
you'll appreciate the feelings of the
Portland Coast League ball club along
about the start of the eighth inning
against Chehalis today.
Portland finally won, 2 to 1, in the
strenuous do or die batting climax,
mainly through the terrific batting of
Bill Rodgers and Bill Lindsay, but up to
' that stage It was anybody's battle,
with the odds 1 to 0 in favor of Che
halls. All told Portland got 13 hits,
but they were well scattered until the
end.
Mae Is "Worried.
The pan of milk simile doesn't fully
express Manager Waifs amasement
and dismay at the half-way station.
McCredie Journeyed up here on this
little off-day barnstorming tour against
the Washington State League cham
pions, expecting stiff opposition, but
neither Mac nor anybody else imag
ined that it would take a one-hit game
to beat Chehalis.
As a matter of fact, had young Dave
Gregg been born anywhere else but in
this same thriving City of Chehalis,
the proud and haughty Class AA
leaguers might today be wearing the
shrouds or the double chaplet of
thorns. Dave " was- out to prove to
his former townsmen that now is the
time to buy up the little frame shack
which a few years hence will be point
ed out as the birthplace of a famous
pitcher.
And Dave showed them. He pitched
wonderful ball. A temporary slip In
the second inning, however, when he
walked Carrigan, the Sacramento kid.
who tried out with Portland last Fall,
almost proved fataL Carrigan skimmed
to second a moment later when Gregg
tossed wide to Butcher at first, was
advanced to third on a sacrifice and
astounded everybody from the bat boy
up by making a clean steal home.
Quirk Switch Made.
Portland did not have a full squad
of first-string men in the field. Krue
ger was missing from the outfield,
Rapps from the Infield and Captain
Rodgers sat on the bench and watched
Gober, the California recruit, perform
around second. But Bill didn't stay
there long, for when the milling got to
the seventh Inning and the Class D
"champions were still leading by that
1 to 0 margin. Manager McCredie va
cated his seat in the grandstand, sent
Rodgers to hit for Gregg and switched
Gober into the pitcher's mound.
It were well. too. for while Portland
tied up the score in the eighth inning
on a double by Lindsay and a single
by Fitzgerald, it was Rodgers' second
hit, a triple into deep right field, that
paved the way for the close-margined
victory In the ninth Inning.
Qober sent Rodgers over the anxiety
boundary by a clean hit to right, but
cheated the Beavers of another tally,
allowing himself to get caught off sec
ond on Bancroft's second hit. Lindsay
then drove out his third bingle of the
afternoon, but Pitcher Frlnk tightened
up and retired the side.
Frlnk Weakens at Laat.
This young right-hander, who tried
out with Nick Williams a year ago,
showed tremendous bursts of speed,
but found the pace too hot for him to
ward t?ie close. In the third inning
he fanned all three men, Gregg. Gober
and Bancroft. Hauseman at short
also loomed up brightly, cutting off a
couple of runs by great field work.
Murray secured the lone Chehalis hit,
but was robbed of another by Chad
bourne's great running catch.
Fttxgerald. the Portland outfield mid
get, looked fine in the sun field, ac
cepting his only chance, banging out
two hits and stealing a base. Bancroft
had a great day. too. The score:

SEATTLE. WashZ July 22. (Spe
cial.) Tacoma won Its fourth son
secutlve game today when it took the
initial battle of a series with Portland
by a score of 8 to 7. The result was in
doubt until the end.
All Portland needed to pull out a vic
tory, was a hit in either the seventh
or eighth Inning, when they had the
bases full.
The odd feature of the game was
that Tacoma did not get a hit or run
off Eastley. outside of two Innings, in
which they hit hard and also were
helped along by errors.
Colts Score Early.
Portland scored In the first inning on
a pass to Kibble, an infield out, and
Crulksbank's drive to right. Cruik
shank was caught between first and
second and in trying to run him down,
Kibble was lost at the plate. The Tigers
came right back with three runs on
Coltrln's fumble and hits by Nill and
Neighbors, a passed ball and Holder
man's sacrifice fly.
Portland picked up one In the fourth,
when McDowell drove over the fence;
and took the lead In the fifth by scoring
four runs on three consecutive blngles
by Coltrin, Eastley and Kibble, a
fumble by McMullin and Cruikshank's
hit over second. With the score 6 to
3 in favor of Portland, the Colts felt
safe, but the Tigers proved to be real
come-backers, deliveri-.ig four blngles
In a row, those by Nlll and Neighbors
being doubles. Moore also threw the
ball to the right field fence, which
helped some.
Lead Is Maintained.
Tacoma drew five runs out of the
mess, and although Portland got one
more in the eighth on Eastley's homer,
the Tigers held the lead to the finish.

FAVORITE DRIVER WINS
ED GEEKS PUTS TWO OVER At
DETROIT OPENTXG CARD.
Contests Are Spirited and Fastest
Time of Year Is Made in
2:05 Pace Event.
DETROIT, July 22. Veteran Ed
Geers, always the favorite of the
crowd. Justified the confidence of his
admirers at the opening today of the
grand circuit meet at the state fair
grounds by driving his two starters to
victory, Pee Wee taking the 2:16 trot
and Dudie Archdale the 2:07 trot, both
in straight heats.
The day's racing was spirited, the
fastest time of the year was made
and the horses generally considered
best in three of the four events failed
to win first money.
A new departure In starting the
horses met with Instant approval.
About a hundred yards back of the
distance stand a wide tape, something
like the barrier on a running track,
was stretched across the track. Be
yond this the horses were not allowed
to go when preparing for the start.
The result was a considerable reduc
tion in the time usually consumed in
getting the field away.
The 2:05 pace produced the- fastest
time of the year 2:03 in each of the
first two heats. In the first round The
Limit and Don Pronto raced like a
team nearly into the stretch, with
Branham Baughman close up. Down
the stretch Pronto tired and Jim Logan,
coming through on the pole in a hard
drive, took second place bv a nose,
from Branham Baughman, The Limit
winning the heat and clipping a sec
ond from his previous record.
In the second heat the horses were
well bunched most of the way, but The
Limit faltered in the last eighth, Jim
Logan winning in a neck finish and
reducing his previous best mark by
two seconds. The last half was covered
in 1:00. Jim Logan took the first
heat with something to spare. The
results:
2:16 trot Pee Wee first, Arona Mc
Klnney second. Burt Axworthy third.
Lulu fourth; best time. 2:09.
2:05 pace Jim Jogan first. The
Limit second. Branham Baughman
third. Don Pronto fourth; best time,
2:03.
2:15 pace Our Colonel, first; Lilly
Woodford, second; Trojan, third; Bow

Men Still Look Like Pennant-Winning
Aggregation.
Sacramento will make its second ap
pearance of the Coast League season In
Portland at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
But no more will be heard the swish
of Patsy O'Rourke's much-abused glove
on the ground, as he gives vent to pas
sionate Ideas on the umpire question.
Patsy Is manager no longer. Today
the local fans will see the Senators un
der the leadership of "Deacon" Van
Buren, a Coast League veteran.
It is "Speck" Harkness' turn to twirl
for the Beavers, and as Big Jack Gll
ligan has not twirled for Sacramento
since Thursday, when he beat Los An
geles, the former Beaver may start for
the Senators.
As a matter of fact, it has been
wafted north that Gilligan has asked
to be allowed to go against his former
tminiM twice this week. Jack was
traded by McCredie for Mahoney, and
Just about that time began to una nun
self. He has done remarkably well with
the tailenders, winning three or four
games and losing one.

HogaD's Machine Winning.
Abies got away with his first start
for Oakland, opposing Southpaw Baker
In a four-hit game, but he lost his sec
ond to the Seals In an encounter with
Delhi. Danny Shea caught Baker's
slants for the first time since 1910,
when this battery really won for Spo
kane the first pennant the Falls City
had boasted of. in something like 20
years.
Those who witnessed the games of
the Portland-Vernon series last week
came away convinced that Happy Ho
gan has a wonderful winning machine.
Some twist in fate may Jar Hogan's
elusive pennant dream, but right now
it looks very Vernonish all the way
down the line.
Hogan had a hard-hitting club last
season, but that was about all. Kane
and Carlisle were the only real speedy
men of whom he boasted. Hogan was
also weak on substitutes. This sea
son he has two new men who are not
only stars in the field and at bat. but
who also inject the necessary element
of speed In the Tigers' game.
Bayless Hits Over .300.
Bayless in right field is hitting high
over .300, and, far from being set down
in the substitute ranks, has sup
planted Stlnson in the list of regulars.
Litschl at shortstop would likely have
adorned the bench were it not for Pat
terson's injury. Catcher Agnew, too,
Is doing excellent work in Brown's
shoes.
But when Hogan says his club Is ter
ribly crippled by the absence of Pat
terson, Just set that down in the Joke
category. Were Patterson to appear
on the bench tomorrow bale and hearty
there would be about as much chance
of Hogan shifting Hosp as there is of
Bryan ditching Democracy. Hosp ts
playing a wonderful game at first and
Is hitting much better than Patterson
and Litschl is proving too dangerous
a fellow at short, to figure in any re
arrangement. The standings In the Portland-Sacramento
series to date are as follows:
May 7-12 At Sacramento, Portland
won four and lost two.
May 28-June 2 At Portland. Portland
won three and lost three.
July 2-7 At Sacramento, Portland
won five and lost two.
The Beavers have thus won 12 and
lost seven.

KLAMATH ROADS PRAISED
C. L. Smith Predicts Great Future
for Farming Enterprises.
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., July 22.
(Special.) The roads of Klamath
County were highly praised by the
members of the Portland Pathfinder
party. Philip S. Bates, of Portland,
especially praised the work of the
County Court along this line. He said
their experiences on some of the roads
were too painful to relate and he did
not care to dwell on them particular
ly. C. L. Smith, agriculturist for the
O.-W. R. & N., predicted a great fu
ture for this section in dairying and
said that the farmers would undoubt
edly soon be sending great quantities
of beef, mutton, pork, wool and poultry
products to market. He advised grow
ing corn for silage as it does well In
this valley and be further advised
raising mangelwurzel and sugar beets
for stock feeding, as both yield enor
mously and the mixed ration is better
than a straight one.
