(Spe ;;clal.) Seattle's spectacular fielding and persistent hitting beat the Colts ; today. The total number of hits Ray . mond'a crew plucked from Bloomfield ' ; -would suggest a flock of runs, but, to I ' be candid. It was mighty hard work i ' to get six while Wlllama' crew was : being: let down with two. 15 The climax came in the third when (Mahoney doubled for an opener and ' Fullerton hit Speas and walked Fries. ! A crowd of 2000 fans suddenly awoke -, , to the need of sand on the track. The same idea struck Raymond, who called t. Thompson Into service. j j Bua-a Take Early Lead ;l The Bugs had plucked four runs in the first on hits by Shaw. Mann and ' Raymond, a sacrifice by Nlll and a t Juggling act at second by Esola, but - there lurked in memory visions of cer tain monumental uprisings by Williams' ; crowd not pleasant to contemplate with : the pennant hanging in the balance. 3 ' McDowell punched a hot one at Shaw. ) There was no chance to stop Mahoney at the plate, but Royal made a great shot and McDowell was dead at first. "Pop" raised enthusiasm by outwit j ting Nick Williams, who sat down on J strikes, his face the picture of disgust. The track appeared well sanded now, i but Harris discovered a vacant mound j in left and overcame the second run, . still leaving two on. Esola slid t grounder down between Jackson and Kill that looked good. Mil, however, ended the most troublesome spasm with . a great play. t Colta Tareate Twice. t The Colts threatened to cause trouble in the fifth and seventh, but double ; plays by Raymond and Kill took the wind out of their sails. Mahoney's work In center knocked v Seattle out of at least-three runs and his batting was the feature of the . Portland attack. : All three leaders won their games. .but there was a slight change in their relative positions because of Spokane's ' double victory over Tacoma.- Spokane Is now In second place, two games be ' hind Seattle, and half a game ahead of s Vancouver.

Los Angeles Manager benies Daley Deal Bud Sharpe Says Fitzgerald Fastest Man in Coast League. Gregg May Be Let Go. "There you are," exclaimed "Pop" Dillon,- manager of the Los Angeles club, as he scanned the returns from the Eastern games in a sporting edition after yesterday's game. "Boston loses two games to Cleveland, the day after cinching the championship. It's the same old fault a let down and it means that New York will win the world's series." The veteran Ansrel playing boss be lieves that, 'strictly on form, the Bos tons should wallop the Giants, with Joe Wood, vastly superior to anything New York has, working in three . of the games. But. after 20 years maybe more in -the harness, Dillon has formed some conclusions of his own on what constitutes form, slumps and letups. "When I was with Brooklyn In 1904 New York won the championship of the National League six weeks before the close. Then the Giants eased up. The players had been working under a ner vous tension up to that time. With the tension relieved they found It impos sible to get back into winning form, despite the criticisms of the press. I remember St. Louis took four straight from thero on their own grounds. "Boston won the American title, but there was no world's series that Fall." added Dillon. "If there had been the Red Sox would have wiped the earth with New York." Dillon says this same situation ex isted in 1906 when the Chicago White Sox smothered the Cubs for the cham-1 plonship. The Cubs had the race cinched weeks ahead of time and then let up. -. "A slump is different from a let up," continued the Angel manager. "New York suffered a slump a few weeks ago, when the Cubs crept up. to four and' one-half games, but that wasn't a let up. The tension was still there, and it didn't take long for the Giants to get tuned up again. Jake Stahl should work Joe Wood two or three times in the next fortnight, and there should be no rest for the Bostons. If Boston falls off on its winning percentage from now to the close. Just put me down for .New York." Bud Sharpe, manager of the Oaks, characterises Justin Fitzgerald, of Portland, as the fastest man in the Pacific Coast League. "He's. fully the equal of Ty Cobb on the bases," vouchsafed Sharpe, after watching Fitzgerald speed around the bases last week. "You have to be alert to rat eh Fitzgerald on an Infield tap," added Bud. "I never realized that he was so fast until 1 saw him play against us." . - - . Frank' Dillon says there is absolutely no truth in tbe Los Angeles rumor pre dicting a trade of Pete Daley to the St. Louis Americans this Fall for Out fielder Kogan and Infielder Hallinan. Dillon eays St. Louis is anxious to ship the two men back here, where they wish to play, but he will not sanction the trade. Hogan doesn't keep himself in the best of condition. Pete is one of the most valuable men in the league, ranking second In hitting at .338, and high rup in -Vase-stealing and fielding. and wants a trial in the majors in 1913. McCredie Is puzzled to know whether to keen Dave Gregg with the Beavers another season or not. He declares- all depends on how his pitching staff lines up in the Spring. Dave hasn t developed quite as fast as Walter had hoped, but he still believes the lanky lad will some day be a winner. Mac says Peters has promised to join him to bolster ud the infield, and he also expects Pitcher Greenwell to desert the "holdout ranks. YALE MAY LOSE YOUXG CAMP Star Halfback Suffers From Xervous Trouble and Quits Football. NEW HAVEN. Conn., Sept. 19. The Yale football team this year maybe minus the services of Walter Camp, Jr., the son of the dean of Yale foot ball, because of illness.

Southnaw Suter was In rare form i-esterdav hoth as to Bitching and hit' ting, but his teammates were in the doldrums and Los Angeles won undis puted possession of second place by defeating Portland 4 to 8. This gives the visitors two games or tne tnree no shunt Portland back- into fifth place behind San Francisco. There was also n. commotion in the first division. Ver non dropping to third by virtue of a defeat by Oakland. Locally the Angels earned their first two tallies , in the second inning De cause Third Baseman Metzger blazed a torrid two bagger into right field and scored Heitmuller and Dillon, making three hits for the inning. Not so easy the two which swung the pendulum of nower. Spectacular . base running counted. . Good Base Running Counts, Joe Berger, who does a fiendish imi tation of Pecklnpaugn at snorisiup, stole- second and slipped all- the way round the corneY from the keystone on naisv's hunt in the third inning, ana, as though that were not .sumcienuy Irksome, Page and Metzger put their heads together on a double steal after Bancroft's error in the sixth inning and both went safe standing up. Page got nn bv slnflrlinar to center. Call it class, culture or anything you want that has a mysterious twang to it. The. visitors naa ineir eyes up at every angle and were quick to take advantage of the minutest slips by the Beavers. Slagle pitched good ball, the hits being eight off hira to seven off Suter, but the ex-American Association fllnger was not handicapped by having any unexpected stunts Inserted to break into his efficiency or the final result. , v Beavers Careless on Bases. WhuriM Bere-er. for instance, gur prised . everybody. including Hank Butcher, by whizzing two bases on a bunt, the Beavers were content to per mit themselves to get caught off the bags, putting flat wheels on psycho logical batting crusades. Suter, after driving Bancrort in wun me ui by a two bagger that barely, missed iclearlng the left Held . fence, went to sleep and was nabbed off third. Doane was la.ter wedged off first base. Suter made up for his beauty nap by banging in Bancroft again in tne sixta Innlnr hrlnsrina the score UP to 4 to 2. He also started a rally again Jn the eighth, but tbe score stood as above enumerated until the ninth inning. when the Angels bunched their -two bungles and let Rodgers score. Slagle tightened and fanned uoane Fisher". Both Lineups Shifted. One of the Los Angeles errors might easily have been chalked a hit. Heit muller lumbered under a fierce drive off Rodgers' bat up against the fence after a hard run, but fell down and dropped the ball as his brogans hit a slight depression near the wall. Rodg ers made second and scored when Page messed up Rapps' drive. Roth iineun showed new faces. Me Credie sent Walter Doane into center field to keep in shape, as he expects to use him there regularly next year, shifting Krueger to either side, while for Los Angeles Metzger went back to third and Howard to left field owing to the injury to Lett f leioer wtour i Wednesday's game, ine score. . . ia I t?nrtlnnd " "TS7o A E Ab H Po A E How'd.lf 4 0 0 0 ochad'e.If Berg'r.ss Daley. cf.
