PORTLAND HURLERS
HAVE BEST RATING
Fewer Hits and Runs Made Off
West and James Than
Any in League.
NEW SYSTEM IN VOGUE
Major League Scheme Gives More
Accurate Ide-I or Pitchers' Effect
iveness Than "Won and Lost"
Statistics Used Ordinarily.
BY ROSCOE PAWCETT.
The Portland Pacific Coast League
pitching corps has bitten Its way into
a lot of praiseworthy type this season,
but an application of the new rating
scheme, in vogue in the major leagues,
shows conclusively that the writers
have not overdone tne Job.
Ordinary "won and lost' statistics
do not always give an accurate line
on a twirler's ability. Any table that
shows the average runs and average
hits per game, however, canot but hit
the bullseye.
An analysis of Coast hurlsmlths up
to last Friday's game reveals several
startling phases of the 1913 race. Hi
West and Bill James, of Portland, stand
out above all other pitchers for effec
tiveness. The formidable front pre
sented by the McCredleltes in the box is
further attested from the discovery
that of the first seven regular box
men, Portland boasts of four West,
James, Krapp and Hagerman.
Went Leads All.
West has allowed an average of only
1.S7 runs per game for opponents, while
James has held the opposition to 2.12
runs per nine innings. Krapp's aver
age is 2.61. Hagerman's 2.70, Krause's
3.44, Carson's 3.46 and Hlgglnbotham's
3.64.
Elmer Koestner leads the Venice Club
with an average of 2.78 runs per game,
but Portland has four twlrlers above
him. Speck Harkness, on the other
hand, is down below all seven Beavers
with a 4.90 average against him. Per.
noli of the Oaks, one of Mltze's best
winners, has been nicked for 4.13 runs
per game on the average.
West's hit record is remarkable. He
has allowed an average of only 4.59
hits per game. Krapp and Hagerman
rank next In the league, while James'
average is six hits.
Munsell Piuses Most.
Munsell of Sacramento has passed
the most men. 57; Baum of Venice has
allowed the most hits, 112. while Doug
lass and James are proving the strike
out kings. Douglass has whiffed 67 in
10 games and James 61 in 11 games.
West. Hagerman. Williams. Stroud,
Killllay and Malarkcy are also piling
up many third-strike victims.
Williams of Sacramento and Perrltt
of Los Angeles are proving highly ef
fective. Los Angeles has four pitchers
going well, Perrltt, Tozer, Ryan and
Chech. Thomas and Henley are the
Seal leaders, and Malarkey and Killllay
the Oak regular champs. although
Parkin has been highly formidable.

GBANEY GALLS MEETING
ARTICLES FOR JUDY 4 FIGHT
MAY BE SIGNED TODAY.
Levy and Jfolan Expected to Post
I'orfelts Referee Question May
Be Avoided for Time.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 8. (Special.)
Difficulties that have been surround
ing the Ritchie-Rivers match will be
formally brushed away it is believed
and articles will be signed by Nolan
and Joe Levy at a conference tomorrow
afternoon. Graney has notified the two
representatives of the fighters that
he wants to meet them today, as he is
anxious to have their signatures to a
contract and. to see to it that forfeits
are posted.
Inasmuch as Nolan has given way
on the weight question and the finan
cial settlement was satisfactory even
before the break, there is no reason
for any hitch in today's proceedings.
Quite likely the question of a ref
eree will be avoided at ttris time, as
neither Graney nor the principals
seem anxious to start another dispute.
While it is well within the possibilities
that there will be a dispute when it
comes to naming the third man it is
not likely that a deadlock will ensue.
It has been suggested that in the event
of trouble on that score Eddie Graney
would prove a suitable referee.
It is learned that Graney is favoring
the building of an arena on the block
between Eleventh and Twelfth on Mar
ket street. The proposed location
would be accessible from all sections
of the city. Jlmmle Coffroth has Inti
mated that he would be wiling to lease
to Graney his open air arena at Eighth
and Howard streets, but the horse
shoer Is said to favor the Market street
proposition.
The story goes there Is under foot a
scheme to build a big amusement park
at Twelfth and Market and that the
promoters would welcome the big fight
as giving them a start.
FIREBOAT IS FILMED
PORTLAND SUBJECTS WELL. BE
SHOWN AII OVER COUNTRY.
Annual Police Review Also Pnt In
Motion Picture to Be Seen at
Empress This Week.
Every move of the new fireboat,
David Campbell, in its recent test, was
photographed by a moving picture,
operator, and the film, showing the
craft coursing up and down the river
at full speed with all its hose in action
has made a picture which has been ac
cepted by an agent of an Eastern film
company for exhibition on a circuit
that embraces every part of the world.
Before the film is sent East It will be
exhibited at the Empress Theater for
a week. The picture will be shown
for the first time at the matinee today
and for the remainder of the week it
will be programmed as the first act of
the septula show.
Another moving picture of particular
interest in Portland is that showing
the police force of the city in annual
inspection on Multnomah Field. This
film has been attached to the flreboat
pictures and will be unreeled wi
them, making 1000 feet of photographs
of two Portland subjects.
In the fireboat film the craft is seen
cutting through the river at its high
est speed, and the guests on the trial
trip were caught by the photographer
as they scampered to get under cover
from the spray. Fire Chief Dowell.
several city officials and many of the
guests are seen at close view. Every
hose and every fire appliance on the
decks of the flreboat was put to a
test before the camera of the "movie"
man. and the resulting film Is one of
great variety.
The pictures of the police in inspec
tion array are clear and the camera
was focused at such an angle that
nearly every member of the force may
be recognized. This film Is divided into
several sections, a section being de
voted to each ceremonv of the annual
drill.

tional Polo Association decided today
that the injury which put Foxhall
Keene out of the international con
test made it imperative also to with
draw the team Keene was to captain,
and rely upon the veteran players
originally chosen.
Old Positions Taken.
The cup defenders will play in their
old positions. Devereaux Milburn, the
only one of the four who had a place
on the Keene team until last Wednes
day, will return to his place at back.
With the team withdrawn, today he
was to play No. 2.
The polo committee also announced
that the substitutes for the interna
tional game would be Malcolm Steven
son, L. E. Stoddard, R. L. Agassiz, Har
old C. Phipps and Rene Lamontague.
Of these Stoddard and Stevenson were
members of the four that probably
would have taken the field next Tues
day with Milburn and Captain Keene
had not a fall at practice Saturday
put Keene out of the contest with a
broken collar bone.
Whitney to Be Captain.
Harry Payne Whitney will captain
the cup defenders, as originally in
tended ,and the Waterbury's, Lawrence
and J. M., will be with him in the line
of forwards.
The team lineup will be:
No. 1, L. Waterbury; No. 2. J. M.
Waterbury; No. 2, H. p. Whitney (cap
tain); back, Devereaux Milburn.
This afternoon there was a knock
about game on Phipps Field, in which
the entire English team, with Cap
tain E. D. Miller, F. M. Freake, Lord
Wodehouse. Captain Whitney and the
other three players of the American
team took part. There was no reg
ular play, the men merely riding the
ponies about the field for an hour to
keep in trim and to give the mounts
exercise.
Tomorrow the English and American
teams will have light practice with a
half hour of goal shooting.
The polo authorities of the chal
lenging country have spent vast sums
of money and devoted two years to
preparing for the play about to begin.
Fully aware of the preparations being
made abroad, the American association
has kept pace, with the result that an
outlay amounting to close to fl, 000, 000
has been necessary before the opening
contest. For England. the Duke of
Westminster, prime mover in the efforts
to recover the cup, is said personally
to have contributed about $200,000 and
secured J300.000 from fellow polo en
thusiasts throughout the British
Empire.
Ponies Worth S100.0OO.
With this sum the world, outside of
the United States, has been curried for
ponies suitable in speed and stamina for
world's championship play. The mounts
of the English team show the results of
widespread search, for they have come
from England. Australia. Egypt, New
Zealand, Argentine and India. Forty
four Is the total of the squad and
since the ponies are the pick of almost
3000 offered it is safe to say that the
real valuation is in excess of the $100,
000 placed upon them for bonding pur
poses. The members of the English team
also represent the best polo playing
talent that the British Empire can
boast. Composed of Captain R. G.
Rltson. Elliskinlng Dragoons, who leads
the team; Captain Leslie St. George
Cheape. King's Own Dragoons; Captain
A. Noel Edwards. Ninth Lancers, and
Captain Vivian Lockett. Seventeenth
Lancers, the combination is one of
players who have spent years of their
life in the saddle. In Lord Wodehouse
and F. M. Freake England has two
reservists who have played in previous
international matches and are by ex
perience and training ready to act in
the capacity of substitutes should their
services be required.
Invading; Team Formidable.
This team, selected from more than
3000 players from all parts of the
United Kingdom, Is a most formidable
polo four. Captains Cheape and Ed
wards were members of the challenging
team of 1911. Mr. Freake and Lord
Woodehouse played on the cup defend
ing team of 1909. Captain Ritson is
noted for his riding and remarkable
wrist work with the mallet. Captain
Cheape's strong forte lies in his hitting
and horsemanship. Captain Edwards
combines both accuracy and length In
his strokes and also is noted for his
team work. The admirers of Captain
Lockett claim that he is the longest
driver and hardest rider in English
polo today. During the practice play
since the arrival of the team in Ameri
ca the work of the invaders has been a
revelation to those who have watched
their game and caused the four to be
installed favorites in the wagering.
The Meadow Brook Club, where the
games are to be played, has enlarged
its stands to accommodate 18,000 spec
tators; auto parking space and room
for standees will more than double this
attendance each day and the revenue
derived from the gate receipts will be
targe.
Cup In America Since 1908.
The silver cup, the struggle for the
possession of which has aroused such
international sporting furore until re
cently has reposed in a safe deposit
vault in New York City. It was first
offered by the Westchester Polo Club
of Newport, R. I., to be known as the
International Challenge Polo Cup. An
English team sent by the Hurlingham
polo committee won the cup the same
year in two straight matches. Four
years later W. McCreery, F. J. Mackey,
Foxhall Keene and L. McCreery at
tempted to regain the trophy. They
lost the only game played. In 1902 an
other attempt was made, England win
ning two out of three games. Suc
cesses crowned the efforts of the "Big
Four" In 1909, for England's cup de
fenders were defeated in two straight
games. England returned to the at
tack in 1911, but Whitney, Milburn and
the two Waterburys proved too strong
and the challengers lost two games
by scores of to 3 and 4U to 3.
OAKS OFFERS GOOD BILL
SUNDAY CROWD LARGE DE
SPITE WEATHER.
Marguerite Favar and "Dainty
Dancing Dolls" Give En
tirely New Feature.
A capital bill designed for Rose Fes
tival crowds, made a strong appeal to
audiences at the Oaks Amusement
Park yesterday.
High-water rumors and threatening
weather interfered to some degree
with the crowds, and no season records
were broken, but the grounds were
well filled.
The headline feature proved to be
the prettiest as well as the cleanest
dancing and singing act ever presented
at the Oaks. Marguerite Favar and
her "dainty dancing dolls" delighted
two crowds with every number they
gave.
A presentation entirely new to
Portland was offered at the evening
performance. There was thrown on
the bandstand screen a moving picture
of waves breaking on a beach. In
these pictorial waves Miss Favar and
her girls frolicked and bathed and
splashed with a seaside air that was
realistic. Popular songs, as well as
several new ones, were offered the
Favar troupe.
Brownie and Sylvia, a male duo who
danced ragtime, received applause that
convinced them their offering had at
tracted their audiences.
Ruzzl's Royal Italian Band, directed
by G. Tlgano for the opening numbers,
gave a number of capital selections.
With the exception of Tuesday night,
when the programme has been aban
doned out of courtesy to the electric
parade, there will be full perform
ances every afternoon and evening this
week. On Saturday night the band
concerts and vaudeville performance
will commence at 10 o'clock, or as soon
thereafter as the electric parade on
that night is concluded.
TENNIS FINALS ON TODAY
McDoughlin to Meet Doust First in
Singles.
NEW YORK, June 8. Three mem
bers of the Australasian lawn tennis
team, H. N. Doust, the captain; A. B.
Jones and E. W. Hicks, the manager,
appeared at the courts of the West Side
Tennis Club today jubilant over their
victory yesterday in the doubles for
the Davis cup International series.
Doust did not get into action as he
is scheduled to meet McLoughlin. the
American National champion In the
first of the singles matches which will
close the international series tomor
row. The question was brought up as to
whether Jones could be substituted for
Horace Rice tomorrow in the last of the
singles matches against R. Norris Wil
liams. It was decided that he could not
properly take the place of Rice. The
change only could be made If McLough
lin won his contest against Doust,
which would give the Americans the
third and winning point of the present
competitions. Should McLoughlin win
there is a slight possibility that the
change may be permitted as a courtesy
so as to allow Jones' showing in sin
gles, a thing that was prevented be
cause of his illness.
FALL FAIR IS PLANNED
Forest Grove Believes County At
traction Is Now Certain.
FOREST GROVE. Or.. June 8. (Spe
cial..) That Washington County will
have an agricultural fair this year at
the Forest Grove Training Park was
made absolutely certain this week,
when the County Commissioners grant

County Agricultural and Livestock As
sociation and appointed three directors.
All of these are asked by the county
Granges to represent the county in
making the necessary arrangements
with the Fair Association, and also in
appropriating the snug sum of $1281

amount is this county's apportionment
made by the last Legislature.
The committee selected by the Com
missioners is made up as follows:
Austin Buxton, Forest Grove; L L
Crawford, mt near Banks, and B. K.
Denny, of Beaverton. The date for the
fair has not yet been set, but will be
late in the Fall, when the products of
the farm are at their best. This, with
the excellent racing programme that
Captain McCan has scheduled for his
training park, will make an attractive
Fall feature.

It Is believed the fish are steel head

have been imprisoned until high water,

as many fishermen were here yesterday
and but few fish were caught.
Sporting Sparks
DAVE GREGG made his debut for
Cleveland in an exhibition game
at Elmlra, N. T.. a few days ago. Gregg
pitched the last four Innings In a 7-0
game and allowed only two hits, al
though a farcical lineup permitted two
more to be chalked up. "As expected,
Dave had a lot of stuff," says the
Plain Dealer, "but he displayed certain
faults that must be eradicated before
he la right for major games."
...
"I think Malarkey, the Oakland
twlrler. Is the greatest curve ball ex
ponent we have had In the Coast
League," remarked President Baum, of
the AA circuit, during Saturday's game.
"I do not count Vean Gregg in this
symposium. Tom Seaton was another
curve artist." .

Harry Wolverton thinks the discard
ing of Hal Chase by the New York
Americans will prove a great boon to
the Highlanders.
"Did Chase make any trouble for you
when you managed New York last sea
son?" Harry was asked.
"No." he replied, "but he was sick all
the time. That New York team la a
freaky one. It plays brilliant ball one
day and falls down the next."

WOLGAST FIGHT OFF
Injury to Ad's Thumb Causes
Cancellation of Bout.
EX-CHAMPION MAY RETIRE
Jack White, Willie Hoppe, Picato
and Campi Offer Selves as Sub
stitutes Against Dundee, but
McCarey Declines All.
LOS ANGELES, June 8. The Ad Wol.
gast-Johnny Dundee 20-round bout,
scheduled for Tuesday night at Vernon
arena was definitely declared off to
night by Wolgast's manager. Tom
Jones, because of the injury sustained
by the ex-llghtwelght champion yester
day during a training bout.
The ex-champion may not appear In
the ring again for six months because
of a badly hurt thumb and it is possible
that his retirement may be permanent.
The injured member, which was dis
located yesterday, has given Wolgast
trouble on numerous occasions and sur
geons who examined It today decreed
that the Cadillac slasher would have
to shun boxing for at least six months.
There was a rush of volunteers to
substitute for Wolgast In the sched
uled bout, including bantamweight and
lightweights. The first to put In a
bid was Jack White, the Chicago feath
erweight, who is now being managed
by Joe Levy. Willie Hoppe. Wolgast's
protege, and Babe Picato also declared
themselves willing to meet the Italian
featherweight, and Tim McGrath volun
teered the service of Eddie Campi, the
San Francisco bantam, on the ground
that if Dundee, himself a featherweight,
was willing to box a lightweight,
Campi was willing to tackle a feather
weight. Promoter McCarey announced tonight
that he would not attempt to fill Wol
gast's place, and the Tuesday night
fight card was cancelled.

I could only hear by the greatest effort.
My kidneys were in bad shape and I
