SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. t. (Special.)
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.

LOS ANGELES. Cal.. Aug. 2. (Spe
cial.) "Happy" Jlogan. alarmed at los
ing two games in a row. will appear in
a "come-back'- role. The leader of the
Tigers Is planning to don the mask and
chest protector and once more get back
in the game. 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

BY JAMES H. CASSELL.
" The Colts have started another win
ning streak. 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.

Notes of the Game.
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.

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. Being isolated
from other leagues, we are better fixed
to break from the support of organ
ized baseball and adjj to our financial
betterment than any,other leagues-
"Of course I realize that it Is some
thing to be under the protection of or
ganized ball, but what does it get us?
If we want a player from the big
leagues to brace our club we cannot
get him unless we give up our entire
club, and if it is not that, they want
a dividend on the season's profit.
"If we went outlaw all this would
stop and we could get as many play
ers as we want. Also the fans would
see a much better article of ball. We
could afford to pay good prices and
hence we could get good ballplayers.
It would all come back at the gate.
"Look back at the old outlaw league.
They had some crackerjack players
while it lasted, and if it had been run
on the right lines it would still be
going.
"Outlaw baseball for the Pacific
Coast Is the only thing to force the
major leagues Into . a better under
standing as to where they are."

Frazer, from Healdsburg, Cal., the

DEER HUNTERS ARE WARNED
Board of Forestry Finds Forest Fires
Have Been Their Fault.
SALEM, Or Aug. 2. (Special.)
With the open season for deer, the
State Board of Forestry Issued a
warning to hunters. In years past
during the open season on deer
the hunters have proved a menace to
property values in tlmberland locali
ties and to their door has been traced
the responslblnty for many disastrous
forest fires.
Under the forestry law the Governor
is given the power to declare a closed
season on deer, whenever he believes
that the hunters are proving a menace
to property rights, and this he did last
year. It is probable the same thing
will be done this year in event it is
found that the hunters are responsible
for fires. ,
Suggestion is made that all hunters
familiarize themselves with the Oregon
forest fire law, copies of which will be
sent on application to the office.
