The Beavers took the Ions end of the tries with the Angels by walking away with both games of a double header from Captain Dillon's men to day at Washington Park. Scores: Morning game 7-4. afternoon slugfest 8-4. Dillon's white uniformed boys who, by the way. still believe they are in the running for the pennant, were de termined to land both games and put up a battle royal in each contest. But the efforts went for naught against the heavy slugging of the lads from the North coupled with the well-nigh superb pitching of the two stars of the Beavers' staff. Gregg and Harkness. I Though replete with errors and heavy hitting, the afternoon game was by far the prettier of the two con tests, and 2500 fans were out to bask in the sunshine and whoop it up. j Early Lead la Taken. Harkness and Howley were selected as the batteries for Portland, while Toser was picked for mound duty and Boles behind the plate for the Angels. Early In the game the Beavers piled tip a lead that was not overcome until the seventh, when Dillon's men started a rally and got to Harkness for three hits and two runs, errors being par tially responsible for the two diamond circuits. The threatened slaughter, however, was stopped by the entire team touching earth again and the Angels were cut off without another run, despite their encouraging pros pects. The seventh was the only moment that the Beaver pitcher was in danger. Toser, however, was in bad several times, the visitors getting to him for 15 hits. Harkness was hit freely, but at only the one critical point. Victory was within reach of either team throughout the seventh and eighth Innings, but Portland snatched the laurels by chasing four men across the plate In the ninth. Portland Starts Slug-feat. : Zero was the score board marking until the third, when the Northerners started something. Four bunched hits, an error and remarkable base running netted three runs. In the same inning the Angels came back with two. In the fifth another blue uniform crossed the plate and a second one was cut off by Daley's remarkable throw to plate, putting his man out on a close decision. Portland's half of the ninth, the per iod that marked the complete blowup of Dillon's hurler and cinched the game for the Beavers after a bad start, be came a real old-fashioned slugfest. With Chadbourne down on a short fly, Krueger, who bad been shifted to center field in the seventh when Doane was placed at short, batting for Kla witter, hit to second. Page muffing the ball and then juggling with It as a sort of a pastime until the batter reached first safely. Fitzgerald was safe when another Angel took his eye off the ball. Norton singled, filling the bases. Mighty little Baker then walked un concernedly up to the plate and even more unostentatiously nearly knocked - the cover off an easy one peddled to htm. bringing in three runs and giving himself a little joy sprint to second. On Doane's fly to left field Lober threw low In trying to catch Baker. The ball passed by the Angel backstop and Baker trotted in. ' Scores: Morning Game.

San Fran cisco broke even with Oakland in to day's two games, winning the series four to three. The morning game was won by San Francisco, S to 1, and the afternoon by Oakland, 7 to 1. Errors by Gregory and Cook gave San Francisco -two of its runs in the opening game. Each side was held to three hits. Pernoll pitched a good game for Oak- land in the afternoon match, allowing San Francisco only four hits. Henley was wild, and allowed six runs and nine hits in six innings.

He sustained the Injury early in Saturday's game against the Oregon Aggies, but gamely stuck at the job. Quarterback Rlnehart tore the tendon on his little finger badly, but, outside of those two Injuries, the squad came through pretty well for the first scrim mage. The lightweight championship of Eng land may change hands November 11. but the event is not attracting much attention here. Freddie Welsh and Matt Wells are booked to meet before tne National Sporting Club of London for the Lord Lonsdale belt and a purse of 5000. Wells holds the title by virtue of a defeat of Welsh, but he showed very little last trip across, and It is thought Welsh will regain his old title. Mrs. A. J. Snodgrass. mother of Fred Snodgrass. the New York outfielder, says she did not faint in a Los Angeles theater when the returns or tne rinai game with Boston were flashed. '1 don't want my friends or anybody else to think I am a poor loser, said she. A statistician has figured it out that Snoderrasa' muff in that game cost 9,- 514.32. The error made a difference of $1283 to each member of the Giants. e There will be no league games played in Havana this Winter, as American teams have Invaded the Cuban metropo lis. The New Orleans team of the Southern League is there now and oth ers to go south are the Torontos of the International League, Cincinnati of the National League, the New York Ulants and the Philadelphia Americans. Lltschl, the Vernon shortstop, is mak ing a en-eat bid for two-base-nit non ors in the Coast League. Ivan Howard has sunnlanted Gus Hetllng in the lead ership, but his record of 44 Is only one swat ahead of Hetllng s ana iitscni b. Coy of Oakland is third, with 40, then Kane SS and Krueger 37. Kane is the leading three-base hitter with 13, and Ivan Howard is second with 11. uoane, Rodgers and Bancroft are tied with nine each. Berry, the big Multnomah halfback who played a guard position last year, got into Saturday's game for only a few minutes, but he showed good ground gaining ability. He runs strong and hits the line with a terrific impact Berry played backfleld at college.

WHITMAN IS STRONG Oregon Players Say Sons of Marcus to Be Feared. BACKS FAST; LINE HEAVY "Bill" Bailey, Tackle for Eugene, Is of Opinion That Coach Harm's Men W1U Defeat Both Pullman and Idaho. That Whitman College has a football team which will be a serious contender for the University of Washington's four-year-old championship pennant, Is the positive declaration made by mem bers of the University of Oregon squad. The Eugene boys spent Sunday in Portland recovering from the results of a 20-0 beating dealt out by the Mis sionaries. "Their backfleld is a corker and the line big, strong and aggressive," de clared "Bill" Bailey, the 230-pound Ore gon tackle who opposed Clemen, "We beat them last Fall by an 8-5 score, but they are 25 per cent stronger now. I think they will defeat both Idaho and Washington State College, whom they play Thanksgiving day and November 9, respectively." Wkltman Schedule Heavy. Whitman also meets the Oregon Agri cultural College, and this and the Mult nomah and Washington games will give the fans a good line on the compara tive strength of the two Oregon Insti tutions. The Whltman-Corvallis game Is scheduled for November 16 at Cor vallls. the same day Oregon meets Washington at Seattle. Whitman finished last In the confer ence in 1911, but the defeats were all close. Coach Hahn's scores were: Ore gon 8, Whitman 6; Corvallls 6, Whit man 3: Idaho 5, Whitman 0; Washing ton State 11, Whitman 0. Whitman and Washington did not meet last year and no game is scheduled tor tnis ail. Graduate Manager Geary, of Oregon, Is another who rates Whitman highly. "Their line surprised us," said Man aeer Geary. "Of course, we were crip pled by not having Parsons and Hall and by Fenton's Injury In the first half, but we expected to have an edge on the scrimmage line. Their back&eld is made up of sprinters, and they certainly ripped through us sadly. Crowd la Not Large. "We had the best of the second quar ter, but they held us twice within the 10-yard line and kicked out of danger. Fine feeling prevailed; the crowd was not large; the ground dry, but a high wind bothered passes." Coach Bender, of the Washington State College, walked up and down the sidelines taking notes for next Satur day's game at Eugene. Both he and Assistant Coach Moores, of Oregon, who took In the Pullman-Idaho game, be lieve the Eugene game Saturday should prove a battle royal, with honors a standoff. When the Multnomah Club meets the Seattle All-Stars In the annual games in Portland and Seattle during the holi days, they will ' likely find stacked against them E. J. Hart, captatn of the championship Princeton team last year, one of the greatest players that ever lived. Hart was on the Tiger eleven four years, last year being chosen by Walter Camp for the All-Amerlcan, be sides getting 34 out of 36 choices from Eastern experts. He formerly was a backfleld man. Hart is living in Seattle learning the fish business. In the Frenchman, Jacquot, the Uni versity of Washington appears to have discovered a second Mucklestone. In Saturday's 55 to 0 game with Bremerton the stocky right halfback proved a "bear" on the offense. On two plays he made close to 50 yards. Shiel and Gallagher, two Spokane high stars, played fullback, and Shiel, especially, gained much ground. Washington scored only one touchdown in the first quarter, so the Navy men must have put up a good battle until winded. With the exception or Jeit end. Grimm's old place, the Washington line was the same as last year. Clark, of Everett, and Hunt, filled the gap. In the entirely new backfleld. Smith and Young alternated at quarter; Dorman and Shively at left half; Jacquot and Chapman at right half, and Shuel and Gallagher at full. The University of Montana has called oft its Western trip, and games with Gonzaga College, Washington State, Idaho and the Thanksgiving game with Willamette University, have been can celled, The Multnomah Club eleven may get a trip to San Francisco. Captain Hurl burt is in receipt of a letter from Harry Flatley, , manager of the "Brooklyns," who says his organization is making a strenuous effort to revive the Ameri can game In California. He expects to be able to bring the "Winged M's" to San Francisco. Buck Anderson, the old Williams star, is coaching them. Because the school boys refused to play unless each player was allowed two passes to the games, the Everett High football eleven has been dis banded for the season. The team claimed the state championship in 1911. COAST FINISH CLOSE Oakland Ahead, but Vernon Is Only Two Games Behind. WEEK MAY BRING UPSET COLUMBIA OHAXGES ITS USE Portland Academy Will Meet Uni versity Wednesday. , Columbia University will enter its next football game against Portland) Academy on Wednesday with a greatly altered line. Coach Calllcrate calls It an experiment, but to the fans It looks like an improvement. The backfleld for the most part will be the same. Coach Hurlburt may also make some big changes In his Portland Academy squad. The game will be played on Multno mah Field and will start promptly at 3:15 P. M. The probable lineups are as follows: Columbia Portland Academy Manson-Larson ....LE wood Willis O'Brien LT Porter Kurts La Mann, Krause Phllbin C v.

RH Warren, Cobb Minor Football. Through the line plunging of Ielson and Block, the Alblna Juniors yester day captured the football game from the F. E. Watkins eleven, 10 to 0. The work of the Jones brothers for the Watkins team held the score down by their numerous tackles. The F. E. Wat kins team intends to file a protest at the meeting of the Archer & Wiggins League Tuesday night, on the ground that the Albina team is overweight, a Lents, of the Archer & Wiggins League, claims a forfeit game from East Portland because the latter failed to show up at the appointed place. The Mohawk eleven, which is begin ning to loom, up as one of the strongest in the Archer & Wiggins League, yes terday trounced Stephens, 32 to 0. Berg, the sturdy fullback of the Mo hawk team, made two of the touch downs. Earley made one, L. Crowe an other and Barton a fifth. Passes fig ured in this game, something which was a negligible factor in the. others. The Christian Brothers football team .defeated Beaverton High School Satur day at Beaverton, 45 to 17. Williams, of the Portland school, because of his work on the line, was one of the feat ures of the game. Final Dash Will Find Oaks Clashing With Angels, Tigers With Beavers and Senators and Seals Con testing for Cellar Title. BT ROSCOE FAWCETT. With Just one week to go. the Pa clflo Coast League championship race Is teeming with possibilities and tre mors of excitement. Not even the 1911 dash to the wire was so close, for the result was practically assured 10 days in advance. . Teeming is a good word this Fall, for, while Oakland looks pretty safe with Its two-game lead, an upset is possible. Counting seven games to go there may be a postponement in addition to the seven the Oaks are pretty sure of the pennant if they win- the series from Los Angelas at home. If Sharpe's men take four of the seven, their percentage will be .688, which means that Hogan must cop six games .of seven from Portland to win. If the Oaks lose the series, three games in seven, Vernon can win on a one-point margin by drubbing the- Beavers five games in seven. Meanwhile, San Francisco and Sac ramento hook up in six games at Sac ramento for the championship of Po- dunk. Playing In the form displayed the last two weeks, the Vernons appear to many as formidable aspirants for the crown. Hogan's Tigers took seven of eight frorn Los Angeles and doubled up to Sacramento last week for four out of six. The Seals In the Interim took a series from Oakland, the first of the year, by a count of four out of seven. For the' finishing week, however. Oakland seems" to have the easy team, opposing, for Los Angeles has Just lost the series to Portland, four games in seven, following the rout by Vernon. Portland, too. is apt to fight harder against Hogan than the Angels will against Oakland. Not that Dillon's crew will lay down that assertion would be silly but McCredle Is strong for the Commuters and Just as assert ive against Vernon. Had Vernon won the final game at Sacramento yesterday the Tigers would have had about an even shot for the burs-ee. It will take an unprecedented upset now, however, to beat the Oaks. Buddv Ryan, ex-Portland home-run swatter, is finding himself so Interest ed in the final Coast League games that he is sticking In San Francisco a week longer than he expected. When Buddy saw Bill Leard ejected by Um pire Hildebrand the other day it re minded him of something. "I have come to the conclusion, said Buddy in the Bulletin, "that kicking at the umpire doesn't get you anytning. I never heard a 'whimper out of the PhiladelDhla Athletics all last year. and It was a notorious fact that they srot all the close ones. Mack gave strict orders to his players to let the umpire alone." Buddy says tne major league umpires will let the players kick all they want. Just so they don't turn around and look at them so as to give the snap away to the crowd. "Just as sure as you turn around, out f the game you go," explained the Nothing m doing In the way of discounts after we move to our NEW HOME Buy NOW and SkA-V-E 20 on most anything' you want! frV-.3iili wmmmmii "uTTsiisliiV Teon Bids., erected t cost near Fifth MEN'S HATTERS, FURNISHERS AND CLOTHIERS Cleveland gardener. "I did not see Eu gene McGreevy work, but they say he got away nicely. Hildebrand will make good in the American League next sea son." Carlisle and Bayless, of Vernon, and Rodgers and Howley, of Portland, are going like Kansas twisters down the home stretch. Rodgers, in 15 games, has missed only one day without a hit, having batted .404 during that period. He has banged out four doubles, one triple, one homer, and has swiped four bases. Bayless in the last 11 games has batted .35, Including six doubles and one homer, and has stolen nine bases. Carlisle's batting record Is .342 In the last 18 games six doubles, one triple and four homers and he has stolen eight bases. Howley has batted .333 in -the last eight games. . Jack Wuftli will play second base for San Francisco next year if he remains with the club. According to San Fran cisco writers, Wuffli has picked up wonderfully in his fielding since being switched over to the keystone by Man ager Reidy. The short throw suits him better than the peg from third. ..' Johnny Core, the 200-pound Los An geles outfielder, wants Manager Dillon to let him pitch against Oakland this week. Core twirled In his college days and started out professionally as a fllnger after leaving the University of Virginia, where he starred by beating both Yale and Princeton, His first paid job was flinging for Wheeling against New York in an exhibition game. Core drove out a triple with the bases full and the manager thereupon announced that Core would play ' regularly in the gardens. Driscoll and Lober, of the Angels, also broke In as pitchers. Pittsburg and Boston showed the biggest gains over last year in the Na tional League, Pittsburg picking up .60. The Boston Americans gained .182 over the 1911 record, and Washington .174. The finishing percentages are as fol lows: New York evidently pays less salary to recruit pitchers than Cleveland. Jeff Tesreau, the Giant spltballer, received only $1800 this year, whereas Bill Steen. Krapp and Gregg signed con- tracts over $2100. Tesreau received a bonus of $1200 from McGraw for help ing win the National League pennant, and in addition he gets his share of the world's series coin, so the season has been quite profitable.

Straight talk to men smoke jimmy pipes who The last two years has seen a revolution in pipe-smoking. Prince Albert came on deck with a brand new deal. Here was tobacco with wonderful flavor and fragrance, without a touch of rankness. Here was tobacco that burned long but burned free and steady, that held its fire close and never sogged but burned down to dust-fine ashes. Here was tobacco you could smoke all day and it wouldn't bite your tongue. Prinee Albert brought the first notable improvement in pipe tobacco since the days of Walter Raleigh. It has done more in two years to make the pipe popular than all other smoking tobaccos in a generation. 1 Now, men, we want you to know why Prince Albert is different, why it's in a class of its own. The reason is the Prince Albert process. This is what makes F. A. what it is. This process was discovered by a well-known German scientist who dearly loved a pipe and experimented with smoking tobaccos as a side line. He knew he had hit upon a t b,g thing in this process. So did we when this company acquired it. Experts were put. h? JjJjJ perfecting it. The work took three years and cost a bunch of money.
