' mal opening in aeven cities will mark
the real start of the American and Na
tional League pennant races.
Philadelphia, which by virtue of its
victory over Brooklyn in the latter's
new field in the only game today, holds
undisputed possession of first place in,
the National League race, will have
Brooklyn for an opponent again to
morrow, but with the scene of the en
counter changed to Philadelphia.
In New Yrk the champion Giants will
meet the Bostons. In the West. St

until Saturday.

the 'American League and the first
games in that circuit are scheduled for
tomorrow. The Boston Red Sox. present
world's champions, play on their home
grounds with the Philadelphia Ath
if tics, while New York and Washington
will meet in the latter city. In the
other half of the circuit, the openings
will be at Cleveland and St. Louis, with
Chicago playing in the former and De
troit in the latter city.
Aside from the enthusiasm incident
to the annual opening of the season.
varied reasons are responsible for es
pecial Interest in the showing several
teams will make in tomorrow'! con
teats. Boston and Philadelphia are
admittedly strong rivals for the
American League championship: both
teams are In fine fettle and a notable
struggle between thera is anticipated.
Highlander Are Handicapped.
The form which the National League
champions will show In their game
with mailings' men here also is a mat
ter of Interest. Johnny Bvers will make

tar, Tyrua Cobb, who ia still a hold

York, and Perdue, for Boston, are the
probable pitching selections.

STAR ATHLETES TO COMPETE
Preparatorj- Collegians Killed Into
Stanford Meet Saturday.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal., April
9. Under a ruling of the lnterscholas
tic board of governors today, Beckes,
of Occidental preparatory, and Berg-
strom, of the University of Southern
California preparatory department, may
compete next Saturday in the Stan
ford Pacific Coast interschoiastic neia
and track meet, for which entries have
been received from points as distant
as Portland, Or.: Boise, Idaho; Phoe
nix, Aria., and Reno, Nev.
Bergstrom last week broke the
world's interschoiastic pole vault rec
ord. Beckes is a star man In the high
and broad Jumps.
The first action of the board barring
Beckes and Bergstrom was taken on
the strength of a published interview
with James E. Sullivan, secretary, of
the American Athletic Union, which
Sullivan repudiated yesterday in a con
ference with the board. He had been
understood to saythat for athletes who
had represented a college to compete
against high school lads worked an in
justice. To the board be explained
that if the athlete in question was a
bona fide preparatory school or high
school echolar. the fact that he had
worn college colors in a higher de
partment of his institution ought not
to be counted against him.
Sullivan did believe, though, that
boya preparing foe college ought not
to be permitted to compete on college
teams until they had matriculated.
even where the school they were at-.
tending was a preparatory department
of the college or university they in
tended to enter later.

"I'll have It ready for the boys," said
Krenthler yesterday. "I think tbe field

SAN FRANCISCO, April 9. (Special.)
Erve Higginbotham fell from grace
today, allowing Honus Mitze's Oaks to
trounce the Beavers. The score was
4 to 1 at the close and there was no
question as to the thoroughness of the
defeat administered to the Northern
ers.
Higginbotham was far from being
in as good shape on the mound as he
was on opening day, when he let the
Seals down with five hits and the fu
sillade was so strong before the fifth
inning was more than under way that
he was retired in favor of Rip Hager
man.
Malarkey, the veteran Oakland twlrl-
er, on the other hand, was very much
of a stumbling block. He held the
Beavers to six hits that were scat
tered In all save one Inning, when,
thanks to the fleetness of Justin Fitz
gerald, the Beavers tallied their only
run.
Stanley Makes Showing.
Higginbotham was no more wild In
the box than Hagerman. who followed
him, although the latter might have
stayed out the limit but that McCredie
elected to use a pinch pitcher. As
things turned out. It gave the fans a
chance to look at Stanley, the newest
of Portland's pitching department.
Stanley only worked In one inning,
but so thorough was his style that
there were some of the enthusiasts
ready with the remark: "Portland
hasn't a bad pitcher in the bunch."
There has been some talk that Mc
Credie would like to turn Stanley over
to his Northwestern League club. If
waivers can be secured, but after Stan
ley's brief appearance of today
there Isn't much chance that he will
be allowed to withdraw from the
league. There are too many clubs in
the league, including the Seals, who
are needing twirlers, for anything of
that sort to happen.
Bill Lindsay was the bright and shin
ing star of the Beavers in the hit col
umn, coming out with a choice assort
ment of three Just half the sura total
for the Oregonlans.
Fitzgerald's Feat Rare.
It was the daring of Justin Fitzger
ald on the bases that brought the vfs-
tors their only run. Fitzgerald ac
complished a feat that is rarely suc
cessful, getting a three-bagger on a
hit to right field. Fitzgerald smashed
the ball past first, where it took a
bound that carried it up against tbe
right field bleachers.
While the fielders were busy recov
ering, Fitzgerald was engaged In
sprinting around the bases and when
he finally had to call- a halt he was at
third, from which position Lindsay sent
him home with a single. The score:

racehorse ever raised in Oregon, will
be one of the attractions at the borse
show and booster celebration to be
given in the city April 25 and 26. The
horse was raised in this county by
Captain J. T. Apperson and was trained
by Jamea Petty. Haltamont won a
large number of races in the Northwest
fair circuit last year, the purses
amounting to more than 7000. The
pacer is now owned by W. J. Vaughan,
of MolaJla. and probably will be driven
in the street parade at the booster cel
ebration by Sim Lindsey. the weli
known driver, of Canby, who .was se
riously injured while driving in Port
land about a year ago.

JONESLAUOS COLTTEAM
'FASTEST INFIELD OX PACIFIC
COAST," IS PHRASE.
Mohler, Coltrin and Bancroft Form
Ideal Combination With Nick to
Bulwark Them at First.
"The fastest infield on the Pacific
Coast and one of the fastest in the
country." is the way Fielder A. Jones.
Dresldent of the Northwestern League,
characterizes the Portland Colt combi
nation of Williams, Mohler, Coltrin and
Bancroft.
"If this infield does not lead all clubs
in organized baseball in the West in
double plays this season, I am a bad
prophet," declared the Ban Johnson of
the Northwest circuit yesterday after
noon. "These boy.s Mohler, Coltrin and Ban
croft form an ideal combination, with
Nick Williams to bulwark thera at first
base. Mohler, a veteran, will be the
pivot of the infield, and a mighty good
one on whom to depend."
The fans are looking forward with
intense interest to the two-game series
between the Colts and the Chicago Gi
ants Saturday and Sunday. The fans
are anxious to get a look at the col
ored "major leaguers" who defeated
the Beavers four in five games, and
also to have a chance to size up the
Colts under strong fire.
Williams will pilot his squad into
Portland Friday night and give them
a workout Saturday morning in prep
aration for Vaughn-Btreet park's first
diamond offering of the season.
Williams plans to use Girot and Cal
ahan, his southpaw twirlers, against
the Giants, as the colored chaps have
five or six left-handed batsmen In the
lineup.
-
The new Colt uniforms were placed
on exhibition at the Archer & Wiggins
sporting goods store yesterday. Tne
road suits are of gray-blue, with navy
blue trimmings, instead of green with
white trimmings, as last year. The
home suits are as those of 1912, white
with green trimmings.
