BY BOSCOE FAWCETT. Practically helpless before the clever box work of HI West, the Venice Tigers proved easy victims for Port land before a Sunday crowd of 7000. The score was to 2, Happy Hogan using three pitchers Southpaw Hltt and Righthanders Griffin and Ferguson. Chadbourne starred at bat, securing three of Portland's 10 safe hits. The series closed on an even keel. each winning three games. The teams left last night for California, the Beav ers for a three weeks' road trip to Sacramento, Los Angeles and Venice. Portland took six out of 16 games dur ing the stay at home, not a very good record. After the first three or four Innings yesterday there wasn't any question about the result. Venice simply could not fathom the baffling hooks and side-arm twists sent up by the clever West, while Portland found Hitt about as soft as an Ice cream cone in a red-hot baker's oven. The crack scvhpaw was pelted from the mound as early as the third In ning, when two-baggers by Chad bourne, Doane and Krueger, and a sin gle by Rodgers scored three runs and made the total 4 to 0. GrtfBa'a Debat Disastrous. Griffin, a newcomer, relieved Hltt In mid-inning, but the fireworks begun anew In the fourth, when a walk and hits by Chadbourne and Korea tallied two more. This gave the Beavers the game, C to 2. Venice having tallied a duct in the first half of the fourth on Bayless' double and singles by Patterson and Hoop. Berry overthrew second base and let one of the runs in. so West really deserved a C-to-1 game. The score-gong was muffled after the fourth inning, both West and Grif fin pitching good ball. Hogan tried his new big league recruit, Ferguson. In the eighth and the Nashville man gave a good account of himself. West's parting victory gives him three wins in four starts since the club came home April 15. Inasmuch as the Beavers have won only six in that stretch of three weeks. West ts en titled to have babies named after him. In addition to donating his phiz and name to the cigar boxes. When West was enjoying cottolene cooking at Vlsalla he casually re marked that he felt like a fat and healthy season. His pitching has borne out the prediction. In his six games he has allowed only eight runs. One of his two defeats was a l-to-0 affair, which went 13 Innings. West Wins Three la Row. He has won three straights now, with an average of only 4 2-S hits per game off his delivery. Sacramento fell be fore him, 1 to 0. on six hits; Venice bowed down In the opening game, S to 1, on three hits, and again yesterday. ( to 2, on five hits. He Is some hurl smith. Egbert. Aside from West's twirling, the ex tra base clouting by both clubs feat ured the fray. Bayless was the only Venice batsman who was able to do anything with HI. but ho poked the right field fence twice for two-baggers. Portland, on the other hand, whacked out six doubles. Chadbourne securing two, Kores, McCormlck, Krueger and Doane one apiece. McCormick played third base in lieu of Lindsay and did It well, although chalked up with one error. McCredie made this switch because Lindsay, a southpaw batter, had been enjoying a slump, whereas McCormlck, a right hander, was booked to prove effective against the shoots of Southpaw Hltt. Lltscht. Chadbourne and Rodgers all fielded sensationally. Lltschl was forced to retire in the ninth inning when a wild shoot plugged him on the finger. Curiously enough. Umpire Newhouse refused to allow Lltschl to take first base, Kane finishing out his term at bat.

Vean Gregg has allowed eight runs In his five games for Cleveland, so West's record of eight runs in six games shines forth brilliantly under the comparison West walked only one man. He walked two on Tuesday and In tha 1-0 game against Sacramemo did not Issue a pass. This gives him an average of one walk per game for xho last three. m Umpire Newhouse had to caution Pitcher Ferguson against pitching from on top of the rubber. After biffing out his two-bagger, scoring a run In the third inning. Krueger was roundly applauded by the crowd.

'.'. .'-r: : Pitcher Martinorll in "handy style last Tuesday, but this afternoon the big Italian pitcher had the Bengals all wound un in his spaghetti-like curves and general alr-tlght pitching. There's no use holding a post-mortem on the contest and trying to point out how the Tigers might have won. They didn't have a chance. Martmoni pucnea a brand of ball which was hard to beat. and it was not In the cards that the Tigers should annex the contest. Port land won, 4 to 0. True, the Tleers hobbled a bit. but It might have been worse. The most note worthy offense of the game was one of omisison rather than of commission. In the third inning the homo guards got three singles, interspersed with one long fly to the outfield, yet not a man scored. Something must have gone wrong with the semaphores, for the track was set for one run at least, but the felines failed to take advantage of the opportunity. Colts Lamboat Concannoa. Jimmy Concannon started to do the honors for the home guard, but he was hoistsd In the second Inning after the Colts had started a cannonading which threatened to wreck the left fleid fence. Kurfuss replaced him and pitched some nifty baseball, although he did appear a little draggy on the paths when there were lilts uloot.

"Batterie-e-e-s for Seattle, Dell and Cadman; Portland, Doty and Harris. Play ban." The above announcement, or some thing like it, will usher in the 1913 season of the Northwestern League in Portland at 3:15 o'clock this after noon at Recreation Park. Umpire Perle Casey will do the baliy-ho act. The Seattle, champions of 1912 will be the first team to show before Port land fans. With three weeKs or tne season already disposed .of. Seattle ranks up a close second to Vancouver, while the Portland Colts are down near th foot. Manager Williams, However, has run asrainst a snag of trouble and should make the usual spurt on the homo diamond. "Either Dell or Mclvor will pitch for Seattle." telegraphed Manager Tea- lv Raymond from Spokane last night. "Either uoty or mays win twin iur Portland, with Harris or Murray on the receiving line," fired back Man -J aa-ex Williams from Tacoma. Shortstop Bobby uoitrin returnee from California Saturday afternoon, where he attended the funeral of his father, and will likely be back at short stop today. When Nick Williams returns home this morning, after his nrst tnree weeks' swing around the circuit, he will be shy two recruits. Outfielder Fortler and Catcher Bliss are the absentees. Fortier, the bait Lake Cltv phenom. drafted last Fall under the glare of a .360 batting aver age, proved a bloomer and drew a re lease yesterday, as did Bliss, the West ern Canada League backstop, a brother of Jack Bliss, of Sacramento. This means that Harris and Murray will be the regular receivers. Harris has remained in Portland the first three weeks so as to give Manager Williams a chance thoroughly to try out his candidates. Doty, too, has not been with the team. He is now ,n shape and may pitch today's opener. The batting order win naeiy db as follows: Seattle Shaw, third base; Nlll. eec- ond base: Wilson, right field: Cadman, catcher: Jackson, first base; Strait, left field: KUlilay, center field; Raymond, shortstop; Dell or Mclvor, pitcher.

Seattle plays here this week against the Portland Colts, then comes Mike Lynch's Victoria Bees and then the Ta coma Tigers. Harry Wolverton knows a thing or two about the technical side of base ball. He was banished to the center field clubhouse by Finney in a game at San Francisco the other day, but sat down on the doorstep to watch the game. Finney perceived him, stopped the game and motioned him off the field. Harry then pulled his legs up and sat on the door sill with his feet against the jam. His point of vision remained the same and there was slight change in his body but he was off the field and Finney knew it. The gamo continued. a a H. W. Savage's champion pacing team.

PHILLIES, CARDINALS AND SUP ERBAS SURPRISE NATIONAL. Athletics, Naps and Senators Keep on Winning In National, With Red Sox Still Way Back. NEW YORK, May 4. On the eve of the first inter-sectional clash of the two major leagues, beginning Tuesday, an interesting situation has arisen. New York, the champions, dropped from first to fifth. The rise of Chicago to the top, with Philadelphia chasing the Cubs, and today by a Chicago de feat assuming the leadership; a win ning streak by St. Louis, which brought that club into the first division, and a spurt on Brooklyn's part, are the features. in the younger organization, Phila delphia, Cleveland and Washington moved along even In their winning way, maintaining their relative posi tions. In the National League St. Louis was a surprise. The absence of Wagner is handicapping Pittsburg badly. Chicago, while disposing of Pittsburg In the last two games, had harder sled ding with Cincinnati. Brooklyn showed better form than in previous weeks, and have put themselves in the hunt for higher honors. Boston broke even on the week. In the American League, Cleveland has been walking through the Western territory pretty much as it pleased. Chicago, too, has been having a com paratively easy time of it. The Athletics went through the week with three victories and one defeat the latter when they ran up against Walter Johnson and still lead by a fair margin. The famous infield is not geared up to its old-time rapidity and sureness. The flitting power is sun strong. Washington, while handicapped by Foster's absence, is playing with confi dence. The champion Red Sox, though Oerceotibly improving, still have some distance to go to land a first division berth. Of New York, the most that can be said Is that Frank Chance is still ex perimenting with his material. BEARS INCREASE LEAO SPUDS, BUCKS AND SIINERS LOSE OX TRI-STATE.

At Walla Walla Jamison got wild in tha seventh, after La Grande had led all the way, 1 to 0. and the Bears put four men across, salting away tne game. Three walks, a double, a bunt, two errors and a single did the work. The last walk came with the bases full. Sensational work by Sheely and Davis robbed La Grande of several almost certain hits.

Issued a call for a meeting of the stock holders today, - at the Commercial Club to discuss a match race between the Baby Reliance and Oregon Wolf II. Mr. Shepherd was a witness to the speed test yesterday and when Johnny Wolff managed to meke the new water speed craft average 40 miles an heir for a 30-mile run, he was convinced tnat the boat was a huge success. He does no; believe the best of the Baby Reliance mprtboats will stand a show with the Oregon Wolf II. The Oregon Speedboat Company, owners of the Oregon Wolf II, Is will ing to make a side bet of any amount If the race is run oft at Astoria dur ing the regatta In July, and not In still water, as the Easterners demand, j BEAVERS GO SOUTH Batting Slump Seems to Be' Over; Fans Hopeful. SQUAD WOW NUMBERS 18 McCredie Leaves Stanley and Heil mann Behind Pitching Staff Going Good and New Men Seem to Be Stars. The Portland Coast League club, IS strong, augmented by Manager McCre die and Trainer "Doc" Schmeider, left for Sacramento last night after a rath er disastrous start on the home pampas. Two players Pitcher Stanley and In fielcler Heilmann were left behind and both may be shunted to Nick Williams' team this week. The Beavers came home with a per centage of .BOO, but immediately droppec Into a hitting slump, losing four straight to Los Angeles. Elim inating that one week, the boys have played good ball, although held to an even break with Sacramento and Ven ice. Analytical fans, however, believe the Beavers will do. They have been strug gling in the paroxysms of a batting slump, but from the work in the past few games it begins to look as if tha boys have shaken off the Jinx. Suffice to say, the pitching staff has been going great guns, and when the pitchers are holding up a team must be figured with. As for the new men In the infield. Kores, Derrick and MoCor mick have shown themselves of class AA caliber. Kores right now, even on a cellar team, appears to be the one best bet in the shortstop line in the league. He is fast, is fielding just as well as any of them, and, moreover, can hit the ball. He is bound to improve, too, as he is comparatively a young fellow. Der rick at first base Is not a .300 clouter, but he always swats the ball hard. He Is a good fielder and a daring base runner, and if anybody is clamoring for Bill Rapps' return he must be a dumb mute. McCormlck hasn't had much chance to show himself, but McCredie thinks he will be a star when warm weather thaws out his legs. Catcher Shields joins the team at Sacramento. Vancouver Beats Chelialis.
