The Oaks came back today and beat the Portland Beavers in a game hs was an uphill battle from the fourth Inning. With Klawitter left In the session long after he should have been derricked, the Oaks not only Increased their hits but m:oe good on the runs and came out at the finish with a score of 4 to 3. Tyler Christian had enough luck to work his way out of several tight holes and to that he owes the victory s much as anything else. Twice, once in the first inning and again in the fourth the Beavers bunched three hits. The first bunching resulted in a single run, but thev were more for tunate In the fourth when two men were sent across the plate. Butcher's Drive Counts. Portland broke into the limelight with a run in the first inning. With Doane out, Chadbourne doubled to left field. Art Krueger retired on a fly nd Butcher sent a drive - to center, scoring Chadbourne. More of the same sort of free hit ting gave the Beavers their two othjr tallies In the fourth. Krueger plugged the ball against the, fence and took third when Butcher slammed one into right field. Fisher popped to Cook and oS Rodgers' out Krueger scored. Papps sent a long hit to right center and Butcher finished up in safety at the plate. Klawitter was getting along nicely until the fifth and the warning ought to have been enough for McCredle to change pitchers.- Rohrer drove to cen ter and was forced at second by Christian. Patterson hit to center and Leard scored Tyler with another of the same sort. The last of the sixth saw the Oaks edge up another notch. Hoffman doubled to right. Hetling and Coolt fanned. Hoffman stole third and scored on a single by Sharpe. Patteraoa Knocks Komrr. The seventh was practically the end of the game. Patterson put the ball over the right field fence and the two clubs were on even terms. Bill Leard planted the ball In center and Zacher sacrificed. Hoffman grounded to Rapps. but advanced Leard to third. It was up to Hetling, and his cannonball slam through to center did the business.

As usual. Hogan has several objects in view. Writers, friends and fans have been joshing Hogan. saying that he is get ting too old to catch. Hogan wants to refute these insinuations. Then Agnew is being worked too hard and "Happy' wants to give him a rest. Real Reason Found. The foregoing were a few reasons advanced by Hogan today for his in tention to work behind the plate again. But after considerable questioning the real reason was uncovered. Al Baum. president of the league, re cently ordered Hogan not to say any thing to the opposing players, or in the language of the baseball field, not to "ride any of the other men." Hogan is going to get In the game again and it is certain that the. oppos ing players will take advantage of any slip or try to rattle him in play. Rtgbt-Hand Twtrler Needed. Hogan also has" come to the conclu sion that It Is practically impossible to find a good right-hand pitcher. Hogan has telegraphed to seven major league clubs and a number of minor league organizations for a good right-hand twirier. but has not even been able to get the promise of one. Hogan has been trying to get a right-hander from w. xraneaa Pit lur n f the American Association, but he could not come to terms with the Blues, ivow ne is suet a man in the Southern League.

They made it three in a row from the Victoria bees by taking a 6-to-0 exhibition of the pastime yester day and Crippled Nick Williams declares his squad will add another three to the list ere the Canadians leave town. Southpaw Girot twirled a magnificent game before a ladies' day crowd, hold ing the Bees to five bingles. However, the peculiar feature of the contest was not the erratic moundman's grasp of control or his mastery of the Bee sluggers, but the terrific hitting of the diamond warriors. , Of the 13 hits in the fray, five chju-ged to Girot and eight to "Izzy" Kaufman, seven were two-baggers and one a triple. Three of the Bee total were doubles, while four of the Colt slams were of the same nature and a fifth was a three sacker. Kanfman Weakens Swiftly. "Let me pitch on Friday. I'm the ladies' day champion," was "Izzy's" re quest of Manager Nordyke Thursday. Manager Lou granted the request, and what was worse, ignored the C. Q. D. signals the singer-twlrler vibrated towards the Victoria bench. Kaufman has this lone consolation to bolster up his courage until the. next duty-day: He held the Colts hit less for four of the eight innings they faced him. But as for the other four. eight hits, good for 14 healthy singles, netted the Equines six tallies. And what makes the situation worse is that "Izzy" can only blame his team-mates vlth handing the victors one of that sextet of scores. The Colts started in the first inning to disprove Kaufman's championship claims. Kibble, the first man up, drove the ball to right center for two sacks. Fries sent the maybe-major to third on an Infield out, but Mahoney piloted one of "Izzy's" best to left center for two cushions, scoring Kibble. Cruikshank filed out. McDowell almost tore third sack from Its moorings with a slam down third-base line, scoring Mahoney. Two Scored In Fifth. Kibble's walk. Girot's double and Fries' screaming triple to the center field fence, accounted for two more tallies in the fifth Inning. Kibble's second double, Burch's single, two walks, a sacrifice and an error should have scored more than one run in the -seventh, but Kaufman sent back the infielders when one run had scored, one man out. and the bases "full, and Ma honey drove the ball sharply to Kel ler, forcing Fries at. second and going out himself at first. Troeh s bad peg to third in an effort to nip McDowell oft the bag scored the final run. McDowell reached that point on a walk, a fielder's choice, and Burch's infield hit. A double steal was started, Burch reaching second and McDowell scoring on the bad heave of the .Vancouver cop. , On three occasions the Bes. had men on third base, but the judicious distribution of his six strikeouts and tight work in the pinches, enabled Girot to score a shutout. Three of the five hits were credited to leadoff men while two others reached first on er rors, but the Bees had nothing more than a speaking acquaintance with third and were strangers to the tally ing station.

Kibble played a sensational game at third. He made a number of great stops, and his pegging to first was of the rifle ball order. Stelaer missed two throws at first, the first a very high peg from Coltrin. which went for an error for Bobble, and tne sec ond one of Kibble's shoots which he at tempted to nab with one hand. However, he makes a fair substitute for Williams, who will probably be nursing his sprained ankle for two weeks.. furcn lnjectea mucn me into mo game in his first workout with the Colts. He also took the lead in batting with two sin- ales In four trips to tne rubber. Bill Speas coached part of the game and will be ready to play the first of the week. He may appear In one of the Sunday games. Jess Troeh, the Vancouver policeman who wore a Colt uniform during the training season, was in bis first game. He didn't look so bad behind the plate, but struck out twice. Burch was given a hand every time he went to the plate. The Victoria bunch kidded Maxmeyer be fore the game. They had him lined up shooting over every ball in his repertoire for tbe admiring ones Max wore an old O. A. C. uniform. Keller played a great game at second. His stop of Stelgers grounder was a clever bit of work. His error was a wild heave to second in an effort to nip Burch after retiring Coltrin at first. Cruikshank dropped Troeh's fly In the fourth, but evened up by making a great running catch of Weed's fly in the same inning. Bloomfield will probably pitch for the Colts today, opposed by Kantlehner or Smith. Kibble was spiked by Kaufman in tbe third Inning. He blocked the runner at third and Burch's whip nipped "Ixzy" eas ily, but the spike tore into one of Kibble's shoes and penetrated the flesh.

FAN' WOULD BE BENEFITED Portland Owner Sees Plan to F6rce Major Leagues Into Better Un- ' derstandin& as to Where 'Coast People Stand. Walter McCredle, manager of the Portland Beavers, Is in favor of an out law Pacific Coast League, according to an Interview of a few days ago in the San Francisco Bulletin. "Mac" is quoted as saying that nothing would bring the majors to terms more quickly regarding the square deal in the traf ficking of players than for the Coast ers to jump outside of the organized fold. The following is the way McCredle feels In the matter: "Outlaw baseball would be a good thing on the Coast.
