ftwltoh off tha gloom and man the (una:
The team'a In form: we made eight run.
And that's no Sdla Jest. The Port
land Coaat Leaguers fell upon the
necks of three Sacramento pitchers In
the final game of the series yesterday,
and hard, timely cannonading, com
bined with some very effective box
work by Higglnbotham. gave Portland
an 8-1 victory.
It was the first signs of slugging
ability the Beavers have displayed
this season, and. while they fielded
recklessly at times, defensive sins
were forgotten in the Joy attending the
furore of the attack. Doane starred
with three clouts, but It was a pinch
hit by Berry that broke the tie In the
sixth and turned the game.
Kaarkrra Besia BmkMbst.
About 3500 braved the Antarctic at
mosphere and when Portland permitted
the Solona to tie the' game. 1-2. by
some erratic fielding in the third
frame, after getting off to a lead,
hoots of derision pierced the sky. But
when Berry Jumped into the breach
after Doane's two-bagger and Ken
worthy's error and scored two men by
a fierce single to center, everybody
clambered aboard the boosting wagon.
Such a difference when the boys be
gin hitting safely.
In the seventh an avalanche of hits
nearly put Munsell out for good. Four
runs scored on hits by Chadbourne.
Korea. Lindsay and Doane. Munsell had
a bad Inning In this seventh, for in
addition to allowing four hits he
walked one and beaned another.
Anyway. Portland, despite one of
tha worst slumps In the history of the
local team, broke even with Sacra
mento on the series, winning three and
losing three. And. be it recorded that
Irve Higglnbotham hung up two vic
tories in the week. West being credited
with the third. Higglnbotham twirled
masterly ball yesterday, allowing but
four scattered blngles and but for er
rors by Kores and Rodgers, would have
chalked up a kalsomlne game.
Dmrke Not Ready (or Work.
Drucke. Schuls and Munsell were
the slabbing trio trotted out by Wol
verton. Drucke evidently is not ready
for steady work yet, for. Judging from
his work in both games, he is due to
add the price of arnica to the high cost
of living for another fortnight.
Drucke opened by walking two men
and hitting two others in the first
couple of innings, and when the pro
cession begun anew In the third. Wol
verto yanked him In favor of Schulz.
erstwhile Phlllle. Schuls. too. had
trouble locating the plate through the
frosty air. When he walked Kores and
permitted Rodgers to fracture the left
field foul-line for a double, scoring his
shortstop lieutenant. Wolverton called
a halt.
Before gesticulating for the orches
tra to cease, however, he assembled all
hands back of third place to locate the
spot where Rodgers' hit was supposed
to have touched the sward. Wolverton
found one convenient abrasion, strange
ly enough Just, outside the fair line,
while Chadbourne averred the ball bit
fair and discovered a round spot,
strangely enough. Inside the foul line.
It reminded for all the world of a
Coroner's Jury Inspecting the scene of
a crime.
Xaaaell Weakeaa la Sixth.
Finally, the umpire presumed enough
to get the game started again and thus
It is that Munsell Is charged with a
defeat. He pitched all right until the
sixth inning, when Doane and Claude
Berry assassinated a couple of his
shoots and made everybody happy ex
cept those wearing the official S. '
McCredie did not use Art Krueger In
the lineup, shoving Doane to center
and Inserting Fitzgerald in right, so
there will likely be those this morn
ing who will say: "See. I told you so."
Fits did look good, barring one slip
of Judgment on the paths, for he drove
out a two-bagger and made first on
two other occasions.
Kenworthy doubled twice for Sacra
mento, one of his hits scoring a man
in the third Inning. The score:

Senatorial stock only last year, hence
this brief biography.
He will be better known ere long It
t. his oerai uunujr i
boosting basebaU in his city for he
has sunk something like S40.000 in his
club already in an effort to provide a
winner. .

At kin none Lover.
I have always been a great base
ball fan and held some stfck in the
Vernon club 210 snares, i Doueve
until something over a year ago, ex
plained Mr. Atkin at the Seward Hotel
yesterday. but my rucauuu im
nation has been horse racing.
-All Englishmen are lovers of horse
flesh. I came over from England in
1883 so years ago around the Horn
In the full-rigged ship Levi O. Bur
gess, now plying Coast trade from
Portland for the Columbia River Pack-
!- Association. Two years later
began my turf career and for 28 years
I have owned norses ana operates
books."
ML Atkin Is noted from coast to
pnut u a fearless plunger on the
races, a good winner and a game loser.
His total winnings would likely mount
up close to the million mark, but up
until the past 15 years the close of the
season generally found him back
about where he began.
"I remember once in New York I
ran a two-dollar bill UP to S60.000 In
five weeks, haunting the tracks at
Elizabeth, Linden and BrooKiyn, saw
he. laughing at the recollection. "Two
or three weeks later, July 3, I had one
10-cent piece left.
Namesake Big Winner.
The Sacramento magnate was a part
ner of the famous Barney Schreiber for
many years. Incidentally, the great
horse. Jack Atkin, was named In his
honor. This horse won the two 10,
000 derbies, the Metropolitan and the
Carter, handicaps. In one year, and
the next Spring romped home with the
Dominion handicap in Canada, drawing
another 310.000 purse and establishing
a record of 2:04 for the mile and one
quarter dash.
Mr. Atkin was one of the promoters
of the Santa Anita track at Los An
geles, where he has made his home for
the past ten years, but since entering
the baseball arena he has disposed of
all his turf holdings.
"I don't own a horse now," said he.
"I sold everything st El Paso this Win
ter. I'm in baseball for keeps; I like
it and I intend to do everything possi
ble to uplift the game and keep it
strictly on the square."
He made a great hit here.

"HI" WEST BEING GROOMED
Beavers to Meet Ancient Rivals,
Venice, With. Fitzgerald, Doane
and Chadbourne In Field.
Happy's Taunts Expected.
Judging from surface indications this
week's Coast League duel between Ven
ice and Portland promises to be one of
the most spicy in the history of the
bitter warfare between these rival
ih Wnrn. it seems, has been sav
ing his two ex-Portland fllngers for use
..,i..t MfrHiA and if either Hark
ness or Koestner is able to trim the
Beavers. Hogan will be sure to taunt
and pester McCredie all ween.
Koestner is expected to be pitted
against Portland in the opening game
of the series tomorrow. McCredie evi
.i.tir oxnects such a move, for he Is

Harkness is reported id uvo .-
unteered to relinquish claim to one

against Manager McCredie for selling
him to Hogan. ana, as tor notuior,
he has never quite forgiven Walt for
nnhiiriv blackballing him as a aiee
hnlrer and noker fiend.
McCredie announced last night that his
team would go against Venice exactly
as it lined up Sunday, with Fitzgerald
In right, Doane in center and Chad
bourne in left. This will give Art
Krueger a chance to get back into his
hitting stride. When he Is hitting
right Art Is one of the most valuable
rnrrixners in the league, because of
hla fieldlnar sagacity.
Tuesday's game will liKeiy not oegiu

arrive until 2:20 aboard the bnasta.

Venice and San Francisco both took
the lonir end of their series down soutn,
Hogan's tribe walloping the champion
dan five games in seven. Apparently
the Oaks are beginning to miss their
staunch southpaw, Harry Abies, wno is
out with a broken digit on his pitching
hand.
The Seals took four games of the
seven from Los Angeles, thus bearing
out McCredie's contention that San
Francisco's club Is a lot stronger than
is ariven credit for.
Irve Higglnbotham, the Portland
flinger who twirled Sunday, believes
that Sacramento will finish higher up
the ladder than Los Angeles, because
Wolverton has a better pitching corps.
"The Rogues' Gallery" Is the latest
Innovation in Pacific Coast League
baseball. It has been established in
the office of President Baum, at San
Francisco, and the black marks are
chalked up .against the players daily,
from a constant stream or reports suo
mltted by his umpires.
Baum has doled out to his arbiters
a suit case full of report blanks and
they are required to fill them out after
every game. President Baum thus
knows exactly what players are giving
his blue-suite4 lieutenants most trou
Die.
The scheme is in vogue in the big
leagues.
This from the typewriter of HI Bag
gerly. sporting editor of the San Fran
cisco Bulletin:
"Did ever a team go to pieces like
the one McCredie is paying salaries to?
After Its performance here against the
Seals wise fans sat up and eagerly re
marked, as they thought: 'There is the
team to beat for the pennant.' The
team played nifty hall in every depart
ment. It hit and fielded, and its pitch
ers looked awfully good.
"The Ducks went home to open the
season after winning half their games.
which was a splendid showing on the
road. Everything pointed to one grand
clean-up. But what a reversal. The
Angels cleaned them properly and they
put up some wretched ball against Sac
ramento early in the week.
"Nothing can blow up quicker than i
ball club. Often when a manager thinks
he has the best team ever he is in for
a beating."
HOGAN BTtrXGIXG FULL CREW
Happy Expects Northern Trip to Put
Tigers at Top of League.
LOS ANGELES. April 27. The Ven
ice Tigers left tonight for Portland,
where they will play during the com
ing week and Manager Hogan took a
full crew to the north. The only mem
bers of the team left behind were Pitch
ers Dolly Gray and John Brackenridge
and Utility Infielder McDonnell. The
latter is suffering with a spiked foot,
received in yesterday's game. Because
of their success this week with last
year's pennant winners, the Tigers ex
pect to land at the top of the first
division before returning. The Oakland
team will remain here for a series with
Los Angeles.
It was said tonight that announce
ment of the release of Gray and Brack
enridge would be made tomorrow. This
would leave only one more Venice play
er to be disposed of before the team is
down to the limit required by May 1.
Umpires Finney and Phyle accom
panied the Venice team north tonight,
but they will remain at San Francisco
to officiate at the aeries there the, com
ing week. . -

SEATTLE, Wash.. April 27. (Spe
ciaL) The distressing feature of the
game Seattle ' won from Portland was
the continuous walking match. Five
pitchers took a hand in helping along
the "good work," and It was nip-and-
tuck which would outdo the other.
Lumping the entire bunch, they walked
19. After it was all over Nick Williams
said he was afraid that his own fling
ers had passed 25. The final score was
17 to 5.
Seattle did not have any trouble win
ning, because in the early going, while
the rain was falling and tne tnermom
eter was striving to keep pace with
the general climatic conditions, every
time one of "Little Nap's" warriers got
on another came up and belted the
snowball out of the lot. There were
only three hits for extra bases in the
conflict and each of them let all hands
log around. Charlie Fullerton. Strait
and Martin Killilay were the offenders.
Fitchner Pounded First.
Fitchner was the first Portland
pitcher. Williams yanked him in the
fifth after Seattle scored four on five
hits.
Fullerton had not given Portland a
look-in up to the fifth. After Fortier
had been passed Bliss hit. Fitchner
struck out Callahan was patient and
Charlie Dassed him. filling the bases.
Mohler. who was at bat, responded
with a slanting drive and the ball
bassed through Raymond's legs, letting
two runs slip over. Then the game
commenced to get Interesting, but
Speas hit to Nill and order was re
stored.
The interest Just mentioned was en
tirely abated when Seattle came back
with the four runs previously men
tioned.
But Portland still had fight in 'em
and went at Charlie, savage liKe.
Guig-nl and Mahoney hit. Williams
fanned. Fortier walked. This tinea
the sacks. Bliss waited and Charlie
kept flinging, and Casey kept yelling,
'ball," until Gulgnl was torcea nome.
Schneider Goes to Rescue.
"Stop." said "Little Nap." Casey
raised his hand and the break was on
the track. Who should appear gallop
In o- hut Tnta Schneider. Pete put on
double speed and forced in a couple of
runa. Speas hit to Nill and it was all
over with three runs scored and three
left stranded.
Asnew was pitching in this inning
for Portland. Mays, wno succeeaeu

trouble at the end of the fifth. Toots
walked five in a row. .Later in tne in

The Lincoln High 1913 football team
will meet the North Central High of
Spokane on November 8 at Spokane.
Word to this effect was received by

score.
A number of 1912 Lincoln High foot
ball stars have been graduated, but
Borleske has high hopes of filling the
vacancies with the raw material that
may be on hand when the training sea
son starts early In September. The
following last season players will be
missing: Lewis, Dudley, Fink. Condlt,
Rlsley and Kennedy, all of whom are
stars. Mulkey, Freeman, Holt, Ray
Groce, Busch and Johns are some of
last year's men that are in school now.
