CULL SENT OUT FOR BAHGROR McCredie Wants Colts to Re turn His 1912 Shortstop to Beavers. CATCHER ALSO IS SOUGHT Heilmann Slated to Go to Xick Will iams' Team and Cunningham Also May Be It Go Chadfcourne to Go Back Into Outfield. Manager McCredie. of the Portland Coast Leaguers, says be is through tin kering with recruits. Chadbourne will go back ,nt0 left Held Tuesday against Sacramento; Korea will begin a regular tenure at shortstop and the only prospective changes In the Portland lineup have to do with the Insertion of Fltsgerald In the outfield somewhere and the re turn of Dave Bancroft from the Port land Northwestern team. McCredie sent Bancroft to the Colts on the understanding that he be sub ject to Instant recall. Now he Is figur ing on shipping young Heliroann to Nick Wllltarae for third base duty In exchange for the crack Infielder. Ban croft will be used as utility man If the deal Is put through this afternoon, when Walter is to confer with Presi dent McCredie. of the Northwestern club. -The only weakness apparent tn my club." said the Portland manager yes terday. In the wake of seven consecu tive defeats, "lies in my catching staff. Catchers are mighty hard to get nowa days, but I have strings out for an other receiver and If I land hint my rlub will be well equipped for the hard grind. These youngsters. Cunningham ana Hetlmann. are gnlng to be great play ers some day. but Tm afraid neither one will be of much use to me now. through inexperience- To the average fan Cunningham played a good game today, but as matter of fact he was about aa much" use as a one-legged man because he didn't know how to play the batters. "Hellmann. too. will be a star some day, but he Isn't quite classy enough for AA leagues yet. He should have cornered in Gill's grounder In the sev enth, inning, and that would have stopped all the furore." Mac saya if his outfield had been hit ting up to stride his team would have looked Just as good aa It did in San Francisco. At any rate. Chadbourne. one of the most popular and efficient men in the league, will return to left Held and happy-go-lucky Cunningham to hie knothole-warming duties. Mc cormick's legs are bothering him and he will have a thorough rest, during which time Kores will have ample op portunity to show whether be is the goods or not at short.

If the Los Angelea Coaat Leaguers continue playing as they have the past week against PorUand, rival first dlvi sioners, beware! While Manager McCredie. of Port land, doea not think Dillon's club stronger than one year ago. moat Port land fans believe the Angels are out to make a bid for the pennant. While the Angels had a magnificent outfield last year in Daley. Heltmuller and Lober. the present trio. Ellis. Mag gart and Howard, is, if anything, su perior. It Is the fastest combination that has appeared here in years, and looks like a hard-hitting bunch. The Angel outfield tops Portland for speed and appears superior also to Venice. The Angels will miss Berger, without question, and Dillon at first, if Gill played up to form last week; but the addition of Charley Moore aa a regular and In good health, and the bolstering of the pitching corps, will more than offset these discrepancies. If the Angels are weak anywhere it Is In the pitching ranks, and the lung ers, to date, have been coming through valiantly. Ryan's comeback has been one of the great surprises. He was "canned" by Denver last year, but has won four srames already for Dillon. In the five games with Portland the Angels stole ten bases, which brings their total for the three weeks to the magnificent total of 61. Portland. In sharp contrast, has stolen only 15 basea this season. The Angels also lead the league in hitting with a grand average close to .200, and in home runs with seven. Maggart. in centerfleld. is one of those in a great measure responsible for the Angels showing. He is prac tically on a par with Daley, whom he superceded, and local fans are wonder ing why Philadelphia let him slip back to the minors. "I wouldn't play with Connie Mack again. That's the main reason I came to the coast." is Maggarf s explanation. The majors do not pay transportation to and from the East, and it would cost roe a month's salary for railroad fare alone. I have always lived on tne Coast; my wife's folks are all out here, and I want to play west of the Rockies," Maggart picks Washington to win the American League tine.

AMERICANS HAVE UPSETS Naps, Washington and Athletics Get Flying- Start, but Red Sox Are Almost Left at Post and Yankees Are Halted. NEW YORK. April 20. Reasonably k...h.;i vaath.r In the last few ponement within a week, has acceler ated the "shaking-down" process in the two major leagues. The National League district, with Philadelphia. New York. Pittsburg and Chicago showing first division class, looks the more natural of the two ta bles. One of the big features of tire week's play has been the rise of the Giants from last place to near the top of the column. The champions appar ently have struck their stride. Phila delphia, in the lead, has only Brook lyn to contend with. Reda Hard for Pirates. Pittsburg has devoted its principal attentions to Cincinnati. It found the Reds a hard club to beat, but got away with three completed games. Chicago could do no better man Dreaa even with St. Louis, but had the edge In the series with Pittsburg. Brooklyn has been doing little ef fective batting, while their fielding "bobbles" has been costly. Cincinnati's lost games have mostly gone by close scores. The Bostons, while fighting bravely, seemed outclassed in their re cent games with the Giants. St. Loula still may be put down aa an uncertain quantity. Again the remarkable struggle be tween Philadelphia and Boston featured the week in the American League. . Senators Breese Through Week. The Washlngtons breezed through the week without a defeat, won the only three games they played and hold the undisputed lead in their league. Cleve land Is showing all-around strength, and acquitted itself well In the series with Detroit and Chicago. St. Louis and Detroit both have been playing un even ball. Chicago, next to Cleveland, has shown best of the western teams, finding St. Louis easy, though troubled with Birmingham's club. New York's lone victory was scored at the expense of Boston. Frank Chance's cripples so far have found the Washlngtons unbeatable opponents. Uncertainties still hover about two of the most distinguished present-day ex ponents of the game one in each league. Tyrua Cobb still is a holdout, but there have been recent Intimations that the breach between the speedy player and the Detroit club might be healed. The case of Hans Wagner also excited wide interest. Chicago S, Cincinnati 2. CIXCINNATI. April 20.

He has been sick ever since the opening of the season and has not showeri the class he displayed in the training camp. The big leagues are tired of this an nual holdout business In the Spring. Hereafter the contracts will read "For seven months" instead of "For the sea son," thus forcing players to report for training or stand salary cuts. Ad Wolgast's defeat by Tommy Mur phy caused little surprise among those who saw the match rooruary a.
