Weathering a nlnth-lnnlng storm which threatened to shatter his brll Hant twirling record of the last twe weeks, "Jerry" GIrot, the Colts' south paw, scored a l-to-0 victory over the Tacoma Tigers yesterday, making It three triumphs in a row lor tr.e Climbers. The blanking of the Tigers gives the youthful spltball artist a scoreless mark for 23 2-3 Innings, during which time he allowed only 16 hits. For a youngster once noted for his erratic heaving, his work which culminated In yesterday's performance brands him as one of the best pitchers in the league. While Glrot twirled splendid ball yes terday he was not superior to Ralph Churchill, the Spokane busher. The lanky youngster had a fine assortment of slow curves and fast shoots and was only touched up sarely on six oc casions, losing the tussle on the "break' in the first Inning. He was a little nervous at times, but pulled himself together In the tight places. Kibble's Work Good. Jack Kibble, whose work during the afternoon was decidedly of major league order, scored the first and only run of the game in the opening inning. He was lucky to reach first base, as Holderman fumbled his grounder. How ever, Churchill failed to cover first quickly enough to head oft Kibble on a perfect throw and the grounder went for a hit. Jack stole second and scored on Bill Speas' slashing grounder down third base line. The ninth inning rally of the Tigers was due largely to Girot's sudden lapse Into his old ways. Lynch,' the first man up, singled to right and was sacri ficed to second by Goodman-. McMullin advanced Lynch to third on an infield out, and Holderman and La Longe, the next two men, were walked, filling the bases. Bert Hall, who has figured as a pinch hitter in a number of games, was sent In to bat for Churchill. His con tribution was a hard drive to Williams, but Manager Nick fielded the ball cleanly and retired the side. Churchill Steadlea Himself. The Tigers had men on second twice during the game with only one out, but Girot forced Lynch and Goodman to fly to Speas on the first occasion, and the next play brought back Kibble into the limelight. McMullin started to steal third when La Longe drove the ball sharply to Kibble. Jack held his head, tagged McMullin and made a pretty peg to Williams for a double play. Lynch had a pitcher warming up ready to relieve Churchill In the early innings, but the lad steadied oofii soon and had everything sufficient to win a game with a little bat support from his supporters. Ed Doty will pitch for the Colts to day, opposed by Krause,' the second busher the Tigers have picked up this week. The score: Tacoma I Portland Ab.H.Po.A.E. Ab.H.Po.A.E.

Mahoney came to life with two corking singles. McDowell, the leaamg coit batter, lauea to hit, but walked twice.

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 9. (Spe cial.) Cap Dillon returned with good news for the baseball fans today and the Angels and partisan fans are re joicing. He says he has picked up a major league twlrler In Vernon whom he signed up while In Chicago-Vernon will report to the team Immediately, but will not be worked until the Oak land series two weeks hence. Dillon was able to get Vernon because of the rule that compelled the Chicago Cubs to cut down to 25 men. Chance had to release Vernon because he had no room for him and because he had no chance to give him a trial. Mordecal Brown, the Cub pitcher, highly recommended Vernon to Dillon. Cap says he almost landed another ma jor league pitcher, but President Hedges, of the St. Louis Browns, backed out of the deal Just when it was aoout to be closed. Dillon almost purchased Roy Mitchell, a pitcher for the St. Louis Browns. Dillon was un able to make a deal with Hedges, for Mitchell twirled an excellent game against the New York club the day the Los Angeles manager arrived In town. 6 COLTS SLATED TO GO THREE TO BE SOLD, THREE TO BE RELEASED. Kibble's Destiny to Be Xamed Later McDowell to Be Clevelandcr. Blue Slips Soon. Inflelder McDowell, sale to Cleve land; Inflelder Kibble, sale or draft to a major league club; Outfielder Speas, sale to St Louis Nationals; Pitchers Tonneson and Veazey and Catcher Moore, unconditionally released. The above paragraph summarizes a number of transactions made or soon to be made with players of the Port land Northwestern League club. The trio of releases were handed out yes terday, cutting the squad to 16 men, exclusive of Manager Williams; the Speas deal has practically been con summated: the McDowell sale may be expected before August 16, while the disposal of Third Baseman Kibble Is yet an open question. Speas Is anxious to get a tryout once more In major league company, and Dick KInsella, St. Louis Cardinal scout, likes the Colt gardener so well that he is willing to give him the chance. Pres ident McCredle and Manager Williams, of the Colts, feel so kindly towards the player that they are willing , to sell him to St. Louis, provided that. If he does not make good, every effort be made to pass him down to Portland again, via the waiver route. The cash consideration is not large. according to McCredle, KInsella being unwilling to part with much coin un less the player makes good by May 1, 1913, and then only with a shade over the $1200 draft price. But Speas Is a popular man, and unless taken over by the Cardinals would probably be lost to Portland anyway by an "AA" or "A" draft, so the deal will probably go through today. KInsella, who stayed over in Port land for another day, would like to make the same sort ' of arrangement regarding Kibble, but McCredle and Williams are not disposed to lose the youngster in this fashion, figuring such a splendid prospect good for a sale within the next week. He will probably be retained, the Colt manage ment trusting to escape a major draft If a sale cannot be made. McCredle declared emphatically last night that none of the Colt players would be sold to the Beavers this sea son. This probably means that In stead of robbing the Colts of the serv ices of McDowell, Intended for the 1913 Beavers, the sensational Inflelder will be sold to Cleveland, which has been making inquiries regarding him. Pres ident McCredle will then trust to an over-supply of Nap lnfielders next sea son to permit McDowell to be placed at the disposal of Walter McCredie's team. The release of Pitcher Veazey and Catcher Moore, of the Colts, was ex pected, but that of Tonneson came ar. somewhat of a surprise to the fans. However, Tommy has not been pitch ing up to his former standard of late; his salary is bigger than those of Cal lahan and Girot, two youngsters, and they promise to develop Into stellar material. Hiiisman. the ex-Chehalls Inflelder, will be retained for the remainder of the season and placed In games within tha no-rt few days. Tonneson will have little trouble landing another Job.

After a sensational opening chukka, in which the Waverly Blues encour aged their supporters by faking a two goal lead, the First Cavalry team from Boise came along with a rush, secured the lead in the second and held the upper hand for the rest of the game, except towards the end of the sixth and in the seventh, finally running out winners by a score of 8 V4 to 4 goals, tn what was the fastest and most ex citing matches seen in the polo tour nament on the Waverly Country Club grounds. In the other game, between the local second team and the Van couver Artillery, the homesters had things their own way and won, pulling up by ten goals to half of one. To the tactics carried out by Lien tenant Haverkamp, most of the credit for the victory of the Boise team Is due. He allowed no one else to do the talking but himself, and his In cisive voice could be heard without any difficulty, and he gave the Blues no rest. He and his team rode them off and rode them off with any amount of go, kept them traveling all the time, and, except when they seemed to go to pieces momentarily toward the end of the game, showed far the bet ter teamwork. Which side was the better mounted would be hard to say. Collectively, in the saddling rlpg before the game started, the Waverly ponies looked a shade the fitter, but when the final gong sounded they were not going any better than the Cavalry horses. Errors of Judgment Costly. One or two errors of Judgment let the Cavalry in on more than one oc casion. In the second chukka, when Haverkamp had the measure of him for pace and weight. Harry Corbett lay up too close to his men. thereby letting Haverkamp clean through, a goal resulting from this on two oc c& s i o n & Again in the third, Johnson, when hard pressed near his own goal, tapped the ball right across the goal mouth for the Cavalry to score instead of giving a safety. Failure -to use the best of judgment In pace and In pick ing the right moment to let their ponies full out was more noticeable in the home team, with the exception of Hall, than in the Cavalry. Portland picked up a bit In the fifth, but fell back again in the sixth and seventh periods, despite hard work by Hall, who carried the team on his shoulders in the seventh, receiving only poor support- In the eighth chukka they warmed to their work again, and when the Blues put on a couple at the beginning of the period excitement ran high and supporters be gan to hope that they might draw dissipated, for the Cavalry came with a rush, finishing with a good spurt ana putting on a couuie mum . . 1 AA.nw K.r TnV,nor,n Wntt Til. sponsible for Portland's first goal, the same player snowing up men on in the period.

FINLAND CHARTER MISTAKE Ship on Which American Athletes Crossed Atlantic Not AVeil Venti lated and Boys Abandon Berths and Sleep in Small Bouts. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Or., Aug. 9. (Special.) "In my opin ion," said Bill Hay-ward, "the Amer icans will have a still greater team to compete In the Olympic games in Ber lin in 1916. When the time rolls around, the athletes who competed this year will have dropped out and the new crop will be world beaters. "The Swedes have had an American trainer for the past two years and that country ia to be reckoned with in the next Olympiad. Why, all Sweden is 'athletic fanatic." Men of all ages and conditions in life swarm on the field and cinder path there, hoping to lower some record or make a showing. I saw men who had passed their 40th year sprinting around the track there like -young colts. Had the Finns em ployed an American trainer they would have made a better showing. The material Is there, but their methods are mediocre." Hayward says the chartering of the Finland for the trip to Stockholm was a mistake. The ventilation In the rooms assigned to many of the ath letes was so poor the boys abandoned their berths and slept in the small boats. On this account the team was not In the best of trim when it landed. Hayward does not agree with the finding of the judges in the relay race, believing that the English was a worse offender than the American in the mat ter of overrunning the lines. "The judges disqualified the Amer ican relay team," says Hayward, "on the ground that In changing the relay the men passed over the mark by sev eral feet.

August 2 was the day designated today by the National Baseball Commission as the date of each year on which becomes effective the prohibition of "the sale or the release of a player by a minor league club to a major or minor league club within 20 days or during the drafting period."

The commission will consider each case on Its merits and every aBieement presented for approval will be scruti nized to ascertain If the deal It covers was entered into 20 days before the close of the season of the releasing club.
