(Special.) Upwards of 500 Portervllle
fans saw the American Ulants Hie
groes) defeat the Portland Coast
Leaguers here today, 6 to 0. in a snap
ty. beautiful practice (tame.
it required but 65 minutes to finish
the nine innings, a period that will
perhaps last the year for Pacific Coast

the five for the negroes
Lindsay, a veteran black, was on the
firing line for the sons of Ham. and
lie allowed only four hits.
Southpaw Stanley pitched the first
Ave Innings for the McCredleites and
was hit hard In the fourth Inning,
when, six bunched swats sent four runs
over the plate. Carson finished the
came In good style, although two dou
bles in his opening frame added an-
other to the negroes final count.
.Vrcron Get 13 lllta.
The negroes secured 13 blngles ali
told, nine off Stanley in fine innings.
Not a sacrifice or base on balls marred
the events of the going. The Portland
batsmen were mowed down almost
one .two. three and. with the exception
of two or three Innings, this same fate
was meted to the blacks.
The two first basemen enjoyed a busy
afternoon under the boiling sun. The
Beavers secured nine hits off this burly
negro right-hander Friday, but he had
them subjugated today, in other than
the batting department the Coast
Leaguers lived up to advance notices.
Kores played beautiful ball at short
Flop and laced out one stinging drive.
Mac shoved In Riordan. the San Fran
cisco boy. behind the bat in the fifth
inning and he caught Carson's shoots
like a veteran. He fanned on his only
trip to the plate.
Chadboume performed sensationally
in left. His work in the gardens has
heen s feature of the series. McCre
die says he will keep Kiordan until the
club goes north April 15. at least.
l,oan today was awarded to Nick Will
iams, but will remain in the local ramp
until the boys go to Stockton, when'
waivers will be made.

"Portland fans are liable to be quiz
su al after four defeats by the blacks,"
remarked Walter McCredle following
' the game today, "but for me. I'm not
badly disappointed and I expect we
win beat the White Sox tomorrow.
This negro team belongs to a league
back East and I learned today that it
has met three big league clubs within
the past two 3'ears. The Ethiopians
walloped the Cincinnati Nationals three
games In four and beat the New York
Americans i to 1 at New York. The
Cubs licked them three straight, the
last 1 to 0, after winning the cham
pionship In ISO?. That's the class of
the team we have been going up
against and Foster's men are In great
fciiape."
The squad will return to Vlsalla late
tonight, making the 25 miles by auto
mobiles. Only 11 men came over.

BEAVERS VICTIMS OF STRIKE
Waitresses Quit and Athletes Are
Forced to Go to Cafeteria.
PORTERVILLE. Cal., March 17.
(Special.) Manager McCredle an
nounced today that he would train his
Coast Leaguers at Vlsalla again In
1914.
"But" said he. Til have my own
dormitory for the men and will bring
my own culinary experts along."
This remark was likely inspired oy
a waitress' strike now In progress at
the hotel in Vlsalla, where the Beavers
are quartered. Not a girl appeared for
work yesterday, and the bail atnietea
had either to sutTer from gastronomic
emptiness or do the cafeteria act. The
latter alternative was resorted to by a
rising vote.
Notes of the Beaver Camp
SALIA. Cal.. March 17. (Special.)
J. C. Klley. manager of the
Vlsalla club In the San Joaquin
Valley League, has applied to Mck
Williams for a castoff pitcher. Nick
has promised to send him a man and
hence the Portland Northwesterns will
have one more farm. They play but
two games a week here, but the sala
ries for batteries are on a par with
those paid In the Northwest.
Bill Rodgers. captain, and Irve HI
ginbotham. pitcher, had a slight run-in
during Manager McCredle's absence at
Stockton early In the week. Kodgers
told Hig to go In the outfield and the
tall flinger demurred. Finally, with
out argument, he took his station, say
inlookers who heard the fireworks.
Stockton Is a vastly different town
from Vlsalla. Manager McCredle de
clares gambling Is flourishing there,
with everything wide open. The Bea
vers will be quartered at the Stockton
Hotel, which Is said to be one of the
best in the state.
The distance between Boyes Springs.
where the Seals are training, and Santa
Rosa, where the Portland Northwest
erners will hold forth. Is 15 miles. When
Nick Williams made the trip he was
forced to adorn the cushions of a tax
tab. or rather of "the" taxicab. for
there was only one In town.
"I will pitch a good game." said
Pitcher Bill James prior to the initial
affair with the colored barnstormers
from Chicago. "I'm good on a dark
day."
If one were to pick the individual
player working under most adverse
conditions, one would have to hand the
label to young Loan, the Philadelphia
high school kid, who Is trying out for
a backstopplng job. Loan Is Just a boy
and Is several thousand miles away
from home among a bunch of total
strangers. He Is a quiet lad and for
that reason Is well liked by the vet
erans, who swear by him.
Nick Williams says Bill James re
minds him of Hal Danzig, the Sacra
mento first Backer. Both are aerial
giants.
Orvle Overall will pitch for Bakers
field In the San Joaquin Valley
League. Bis home Is in Vlsalia and his
father is authority for the assertion
that Orvie wants to get back Into the
hie league badly, as he figures his arm
I better than ever, but his hatred for
C. W. Murphy, of the Chicago Cubs,
keeps him on the shelf. Murphy refuses
to sell him.
If smallpox breaks out In camp the
accusing finger will be pointed Walter
McCredlewards. While at Stockton Tom
Harkett piloted Mao through the In
sane asylum. As they roamed down a
long aisle. In an Isolated wing, several
Inmates motioned frantically ror mem
to no away. Mackett ana .-ucvreaie ns
ured them to be "nuts" and were
startled out of a year's growth a mo
ment later when they perceived quar
antine signs tacked about on the walls.
They beat hasty retreats to the fumi
gation officials.
Tom Harkett told McCredle that
Southpaw Krause, In his opinion, was
the best In the business today. He
predicts that Krause will win .00 per
rent of his games In the Coast League
this year.
Thirty outside teams are expected at
the Vancouver bowling tournament of
March 17. Seattle expects to send 10
teams, three from the Seattle Athletic
Club. Portland Is charged with four.
JOHN L TALKS FIGHT
Ring Game to "Come Back,"
Says Heavyweight Dean.
YOUNG COMER LOOKED FOR
Sullivan, at Pantages This Week, Is
' of Belief Tliat McCarty Won't Do
and That Jack Johnson Will
Xot Re-enter Ring.
John L. Sullivan, in Portland after an
absence of more than two years, be
.leves that the fight game Is "coming
back." The 54-year-old 285-pounder,
who was once the greatest heavyweight
of them all, either with bare knuckles
or the padded mitts, can't see much
light ahead for the public among the
big chaps, but thinks that within a few
years every state in the Union will
legalize 10-round boxing.
"The trouble with the fighter of to
day is that. Instead of devoting his time
to advancement In ringcraft. he Is en
gaged In counting his money and
squabbling with the promoters over
guarantees," said the grizzled veteran
yesterday afternoon in his reception
room at the Pantages Theater.
"It's, 'How much do I get, win lose,
or draw?' and the public Is disgusted.
"Some of these days a young fellow
weighing about 200 pounds and stand
ing six feet 11 or 11 1-2 Inches tall, will
come along, act more like a boxer than
a hold-up rr.an. agree to fight for a
percentage of the gate receipts, and
win the confidence of the public. Then
the heavyweight division will be re
Instated in public favor,"
John L. does not like to talk about
fights and fighters at least he so as
serts but almost every conversation
winds up with more than a few words
anent the ring. He expresses few
opinions regarding present day fighters,
confessing ignorance of their merits as
he has not seen them in actton, but
takes the word of many critic friends
for It that Luther McCarty will not
do.
"Jack Jol'nson Is through; he will
never fight again. No one would dare
to put him in the ring In this country;
the public won't stand for it." Is Sul
livan's expression regarding the ring
future of the man who holds the
world's heavyweight championship.
Unlike Corbett, who disparages John
son at every opportunity, Sullivan
thinks that the negro would have been
a great fighter had he used his head.
"Johnson Is like many other fighters;
he lost his head when he reached the
top. so. Instead of being listed as one
of the greatest champions in history,
he will be remembered by the next
generation as the man who defeated
Jeffries when the Callfornlan would
have been prey for almost any second
rater In the country." says the ex
fighter and vaudevilllan on his fare
well tour.
Sullivan likes to talk of his farm
back near Boston, where he devotes
much of his time at home to ploughing
and other agricultural pastimes.
The famous old ringman was a guest
of the Portland Press Club at Its St
Patrick's day jinks last night, and
was also entertained by Pete Grant, an
old-time friend. J. J. Fitzslmmons and
many other friends visited Sullivan dur
ing the day.

KORES STROXG IX GYMXASITJM
Portland Shortstop Has Record of
Years Anions German Societies.
VISALIA. Cal.. March 17. (Special.)
Art Kores is not only a mighty good
class AA shortstop prospect, but he Is
also one of the best all-around gym
nastic experts In the country when in
condition.
The shiftv German took part In gym
nastlc drills In the various turn vereins
In and around Milwaukee for years. He
was one of the competitors at the St.
Louis World's Fair In 1904 and had a
chance to go to Paris.
Korea has specialized on the horl
zontal and parallel bars, the horse and
buck and on tumbling. The giant
swing around the bar is mere play for
him. When In practice he is able to
stop- at the handstand In the giant
swing and reverse on the death-swing,
finishing with a cutoff somersault.
The club gymnasium here, where the
Beavers are training, boasts of an Im
provised horizontal bar, and, while
Korea has not done any indoor work
for months, he occasionally turns off a
few twisters that startle his team
mates. "If he Is half the ball player that
he is gymnast 111 be tickled." de
clared McCredle. after one of the ex
hibitions. Kores hasn't been fielding
his position like Roger Peckinpaugh
or Ivan Olson, but he has been clouting
the ball a lot oftener and harder.

If unprecedented early activity in
filing entries is a criterion of results.
Portland's 14th annual bench show,
scheduled for April 3-6, will be a four
point exhibition, with more than ZOO
canines competing for the various
prizes.
The entry list date comprises 110
dogs, against 50 last year two days be
fore the show. Last year's three-point
show had 275 dogs on exhibition, but
Secretary McCarthy la confident that
the hicrh mark of .214 dogs eight years
am the onlv time Portland held a four-
point show under the new rules, will
be passed.
"The encouraging feature of the
situation Is that nearly all of the dogs
entered to date are new ones." says
McCarthy. "Only three big kennels.
Kootenai and Keefe. of Butte, and Mrs.
Creighton's. of Victoria, are In the list
of 110 dogs. If the old fanciers re
spond as before there is no reason why
we should not have olo dogs.
When the dog show was inaugu
rated in Portland 14 years ago be
tween 400 and 500 dogs were on ex
hlbltion. However, when certain own
ers discovered that their prize canines
lacked merit, the number of entries de
