J ' The American Giants, of Chicago
(colored), nosed out the Portland Coast
' Leaguers this afternoon, 8 to 7. in, the
ninth inning of as sensational a game
as the Beason will probably produce.

' consecutive hits and Jammed in five
t tallies, Krause, as pinch hitter, slash-
ing out a triple with the final two runs.

however, and lit on Higginbotham for
; three singles and a triple, cinching the
game.
' James made his1 debut and twirled
J- four innings. He showed marvelous
speed, curves and control, but weak-
ened after the first two innings. Hig
ginbotham finished the game, and.
' while he seemed to have everything,
. was touched for eight hits. Barber
scored four hits in five trials.
, "I wanted to win, but am not a bit
' surprised or sore about losing," com'
. mented McCredie. "These negroes are
of major league caliber."
In the fielding line Mike McCormick
'. ' was easily the star. lie made several
, remarkable stops and throws and hit
tne ball hard, although only one drive,
a hit and run, fell safe. Rodgers is
ill, so Heilmann played second. 8oirth-
' erner Derrick was finally induced to
j play against the colored men.
Krause's drive in the seventh .inning
. was easily the feature of the game,
'After hits bv Derrick and McCormick
i -McCredie jerked Heilmann in favor of
Cunningham. The kid singled clearly
I to left? then Berry, and Higginbotham
-cracked safely in a row and with two
t- -strikes on Chadboume, McCredie ran
s Krause to the plate to oppose the south -
paw pitcher.' Krauso brought in two
inns, putting the Beavers one ahead.

the catching for the time being will
fall on this lad's shoulders, for Schmidt

"Tub" Spencer has fallen from grace.
McCarl will be In first, but Howard will
likely be on the job when the season
opens. Jose Wagner Is such an im
proved player over his form of last sea'
son that he has practically cinched the
second base berth. There has never
been any question about Roy Corhan at

that he has such a good line on the
players that he will ask waivers Satur
day on five of the Seals. They are most
ly the young bushers with whom he has
been experimenting.

VISALIA, Cal., March 13. (Special.)
"They need a baseball boosters' club
In Portland," declared Artie Krueger,
with a roguish glint in his eyes, as he
read of the organization of a rooting
corps in the north. "Either that or
the bumps should be ironed out down
in center field."
.
Bill Rodgers puts In a good booBt for
Martinonl, the tall. Oakland kid
pitcher signed up by Nick Will a ma.
"That boy looked mighty good when
Wolverton had him a couple of years
ago," acclaimed Rodgers. He wasn t
quite fast enough then for AA ball.
because a youngster must be a wonder
to overcome his lack of experience, but
1 think he has learned enough now to
be a valuable man for the Portland
North westerners."
Several of the boys have had some
lively, disputes over the respective class
of the -American Association, .Pacific
Coast and Western leagues. Having in
mind the terrific lacing given Minne
apolis by Denver last Fall, the West
ern League exponents Insist O'Niell'a A
circuit is fully as speedy as the Coast.
"Nonsense," saya Irve Higginbotham.
"I played with a bunch of Western
leaguers last Fall and a couple of years
ago and they have a long ways to
go yet."
Jimmy Riordan, the San FTanclsco
Irishman who is trying out for a catch
ing berth, is a pleasant, happy-faced
Irish lad of 20 Summers. He reported
with a bad finger but -has been doing
very good work. Riordan played at
Sacred Heart for three years and at
St, Mary's College for one year. He la
basketball, baseball, football and track
scar, having negotiated the 440-yard
dash in S3 seconds.
The new Portland Coast road uni
forms arrived the other day, but will
not be worn until the league opening at
San Francisco April 1. As in former
years they are of blue flannel with the
customary letter "P" on the shirt
front This year, however, a slight
stripe Is noticeable. The home uni
forms will be white.
Bill James, the near seven -ooter. Is
the most amiably disposed person in
the squad. - Bill would smile if his
mother-in-law fell overboard. As an
umpire he Is a wonder, grinning broad
ly at every bad decision and conse
quently Bill has also acquired the
knack of grinning constantly.
PORTLAND BOY WILL COMPETE
Nelson, of Astoria School, Expected
to Show Up' Well In April Meet.
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA,
Berkeley, Cal.. March 13. (Special.)
Announcement that the Astoria High
School Is to enter the Pacific Coast in
terscholastic track meet April 4 and
5, has caused comment because Nelson,
one of Astoria's principal performers,
was formerly with the Washington
High School, Portland, which captured
second last year. He ran the distances
and the relay for the victorious Oregon
team.
It was said then that he lost his race
thrqugh lack of development and it is
thought that this season be will be at
his best. The season will be early for
him and the Astoria track, rather slow,
compared to the fine condition here,
but it Is .thought that he will be able
to overcome that handicap.
Breach Not Thought Serious.
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA,
Berkeley. Cal.. March 13. (Special.)
The reported break between -the Uni
versity of California and stantora,
relative to the next annual football
game. Is looked upon here as merely a

BT BOSCOE FAWCETT.
VISALIA, CaL, March 13. (Special.)
Walter McCredie broke his long si
lence this morning, definitely picked
his outfield personnel, arranged his
lineup and batting order for the open
ing game against San Francisco April
1 and, as if that were not enough for
one sitting, the enigmatical Portland
Coast League leader gave voice to the
assertion that Bill Lindsay, his har
hitting third baseman, may be turned
over to the Portland Northwestern
League club.
Contrary to generally accepted be
liefs, Mac will not make a change in
his garden alignment. The- three vet
erans, Chadboume, Krueger and Doane,
will be found in the same niches filled
last Spring, unless accident or Illness
necessitates a switch.
Chsilbourne to Lead Off.
The Portland batting order against
the Seals will be as follows:
Chadboume, left field; Doane, right
field; Rodgers, second base; Krueger,
center field; Korea, shortstop; Derrick,
first base; McCormick, third base;
Fisher, catcher; Higginbotham or Car
son, pitches.
"My brow has become almost corru
gated through study over the outfield
situation," -said Manager McCredie, ex
plaining his choice. "I don't see how
I can get away frem my old vets. Krue
ger is In good shape and, as he is one
of the grandest gardeners in the world
when right, he is a cinch. Art is a
right-handed batter, too, so I need
him.
"I can't very well put Fitzgerald in
right and switch Doane over to left,
because Doane has never played left
yet be Is too valuable a man to keep
out of the lineup. Chadbourne, on the
other hand, has a much better arm than
either Doane or Fitzgerald, hits around
.275, is & dandy lead-off batsman and
la using the old head all the time, both
In the field and on the bases. . .
Pltz-serald'a Hlttims Respected.
"Fitzgerald will outhlt either Doane
or Chadbourne likely, but thel expe
rience and superior throwing to bases
gives them an edge.' I " will start
with Chadbourne, Krueger and Doane
and see how it works out, anyway."
McCredie undoubtedly will Bhlft his
batting order against left-handed
pitchers, as Chadbourne, Doane and
Rodgers, the lead-off men, are south
paw hitters. So is ' Fisher, but the
Seals are not expected to shove any
portslders against the Beavers open
ing week.
The announcement that Lindsay Is
ticketed for the Northwestern League
will cause genuine surprise all up and
down the Coast. It has been known
for weeks that McCredie has been fig
uring on McCormick as regular third
sacker, but that he was considering a
split with the hard-biffing-Southerner
was not dreamed of.
"Lindsay is still loafing along the
way, a week after my last straggler,
and will not be of use to me tor a
month, even in a utility berth," de
clared Mac "Now Peters reports to
me May 1, and as I intend carrying
young Heilmann, the San Francisco
boy, for a few weeks, I don't see as I
need Lindsay. Peters is a better ball
player and I expect to use him in the
utility role."
Turn Pleasea Williams.
Peters graduates from the Stanford
law department In a few weeks. He Is
coaching the ball club there and will
be In condition to jump Into a Coast
uniform on the day of reporting. Nick
Williams, manager of the Portland B
league club, is, of course, delighted at
the turn of events.
"Lindsay may not be the best fielder
In the world, but I need a hard-hitting
infielder and he will fill me out nicely, '
said Manager Williams. "Mac, I un
derstand, is afraid of a return of the
trouble that put Lindsay out of active
service a goodly portion of last season.
For that same reason the other Coast
managers' will likely waive on him.
Lindsay, however, says he is in good
physical condition and I certainly am
willing to take a chance."
SIX GAMES SCHEDULED
COLTS TO PLAY EXHIBITION
MATCHES ON TOUR,
Weed, CaL, Medford, Grants Pass,
Albany and Portland to Be
Scenes of Contests.
W. W. McCredie. president of the
Portland Baseball Club, has scheduled
six exhibition games for the Portland
Colts. Weed, Cal and Medford, Grants
Pass, Albany and two appearances In
Portland, is the itenerary of the Colts
to date in the northern section of their
training tour.
weed and Medford are both after a
game on Sunday, April 6. McCredie
hopes to placate the Weed people with
the Saturday game, schedule the Colts
for Medford on Sunday, and play at
Grants Pass the following day. A
game may be arranged for Roseburg
for Monday or Tuesday, with one at
Corvaills on Thursday. This would
bring the Colts into Portland on Fri
day. On Saturday they play the Chem
awa Indian at Vaughn Street Park
and the Weonas on Sunday.
Word was received yesterday that
Bll Lindsay, the third baseman, took
up transportation for VI sal la on March
8. He should be at the Beaver training
camp by this time.
Billy Fortler did not take no trans
portation at East Ely, Nevada, as at
flrsv reported by the railroad people,
and will arrive at Santa Rosa about
March 18 to train with the Colts.
