Two -wonderful major league baseball
teams will mobilize in Portland today
for an exhibition at Recreation Park.
Hound on a tour around the globe,
the New York Giants and the Chicago
Americans will enjoy their last sleep
on American soil in Portland tonight,
preparatory to embarking aboard ship
for Japan, Slam. Ceylon, Egypt." France,
Germany, England, Scotland and Ire
land a three months' Journey in alL
The exhibition at Recreation Park la
set for 2:30 o'clock, and. while the
weather man is none too optimistic, a
canvas has been spread over the ball
field, and nothing short of a deluge
will prevent a game.
The gates will be open at 1 o'clock.
and a crowd of close to 10,000 fans is
anticipated.
The sojourn of the big league stars
In Portland will be a kaleidoscopic
panorama of excitement.
Sight-Swing Trip Planned.
Fielder A. Jones, ex-manager of the
Chicago Sox, is head of a reception
committee that will greet the tourists
at the Union Depot at 7:20 A. M. Break
fast will be followed by automobile
sight-seeing rides, and then comes the
ball game, with an informal yet elab
orately' frescoed banquet on the card
for the evening hours, beginning at
6:30 o'clock.
On their triumphal tour through the
South and up the Pacific Coast, the ball
Hars have declined all banquet dates,
but Ted Sullivan, managing director of
the tour, reached Portland - yesterday
and accepted in behalf of the entire
contingent.
"This will be our last night on our
native soil, and for patriotic reasons
every man, Jack, son of us will be on
hand," said he. "We sail Wednesday
night from Victoria,-and want to point
back to Portland as the city which
bade us bon voyage."
Banquet Tickets In Demand.
George L. Baker has been chosen
toastmaster for the banquet, which will
be held in one of the beautifully dec
orated dining halls at the Multnomah
Hotel. Mayor Albee will be one of the
speakers. Because of the demand for
tickets, the committee raised the guest
limit from 100 to 125 yesterday, and
these extra billets can be secured from
J. K. Appleby, Marshall 2004, or 'from
E. S. Higgins, Main 8S00.
While Christy Mathewson bade the
caravansarie godspeed at San Fran
cisco,, there will be enough other fa
vorites aboard to make the visit one
long to be remembered in Portland.
Among these might be mentioned
John J. McGraw, manager of the five
times champion New Tork Nationals;
Fred Merkle, Jeff Tesreau and bride.
James Thorpe, the famous Indian
athlete; Larry Doyle and wife, Freddy
Bnodgrass, Al Demaree. Hooks" Wiltse,
the pitcher who broke in at first base
so sensationally during the recent
world's series, besides Lobert and
Doolan, of the Phillies, and Mike Don-
lin, Fromme, Wingo and Magee.
Roster Clustered With Class.
While the Chicago Americans are
coming mostly by proxy, Charles
Comlskey's roster scintillates with
class.
The Sox are managed by James Cal
lalian- some actor man, they say and
lie has under his fatherly wing Ray
Schalk, his great young backstop; Keb
Russell, Buck Weaver, late of the Seals
Ieverenz, ex-Angel: Sam Crawford, the
great Detroit slugger; Trls Speaker, the
Boston fence-buster; Herman Schaefer,
the comedian; Benz, Hal Chase, the
world's greatest first-sacker; Steve
Evans, of St. Louis, and others.
Jack Sheridan and Bill Klem are the
Umpires attending.
Only 24 players will be taken abroad.
according to Managing Director Sulli
van. Hence several of the stars will
. leave the team tomorrow at Seattle,
and as the tourists can pack only
lirnited number of players through
lack of storage room, Trls Speaker will
be among those left behind. The teams
play on too many islands after leaving
United States soil, says Director Sulli
van.
Wives to See Portland.
Hal Chase, Schalk, Faber and Russell
are others who will bid good-bye to
the barnstormers ere another 24 hours
ticks off.
Several of the officials and the play
ers are accompanied by their wives
and the women will be taken care o
during the stay in Portland by a com
mlttee consisting of Mrs. W. W. Mo
Credie, Mrs. W. T. Pangle and Mrs
i ielder A. Jones.
At 10:30 automobiles will lift the
party at the Multnomah Hotel for a
Jaunt about the city. While the ban
quet is on in the evening the women
will be enjoying the caTaret at a spe
cial table at the Arcadian Gardens,
after which Mrs. Pangle will be hostess
at a box party at the Heilig Theater
The Chicago team will book at th
Multnomah Hotel and the New York
Giants at the Oregon Hotel.

Comlskey and McGraw Willing to
Let Forfeit Go bat Medford Fans
Refuse to -, Quit After Paying;
$2 to See Big Leagners.
MEDFORD. Or.. Nov.. 17. (Special.)
With umbrellas for , the background.
foreground and centerpiece, the Giants
defeated the White Sox here 3 to 0 to
day in a five-inning game and broke
the tie of the series. It rained before
the Kame. durlncr the crame and after
the game, making it such a natatorial
exhibition as has not been seenon the
trip.
Magee, in the outfield for Giants,
made a one-handed catch with an
umbrella over his head, while Sheridan
umpired in an overcoat.
During the forenoon it rained, but
when the tourists arrived it stopped
for a few minutes and immediately the
committee insisted that the game be
played. Comiskey and McGraw were
willing to let the forfeit go by but the
fans had paid $2 a throw to see the
major leaguers in action and they
would not be satisfied without a game,
The first inning went by without a
hitch, then the clouds began to leak,
and for four solid hours it poured. -
The ball diamond had been rolled at
noon, and when the game was called at
1:30 there was a good surface to play
on. Umpire Sheridan wore an overcoat.
Doyle carried an umbrella and the
tourists floundered through five in
nings as nonchalantly as if the sun had
been shining.
As Umpire Klem bawled out tho
notables as they came to bat everyone
yelled. . The lightning work of the New
York infield also aroused -much enthu
siasm. The presence on the White Sox
team of Don Rader, an ex-High School
star of Medford, who was recruited by
Comiskey last Summer . and is spending
the Winter at his home here, added to
the Interest. Rader played an errorless
game and knocked a hard liner to the
left field fence, which was a foul by
three Inches.
Crowds Cry for More.
There was a crowd Jammed in the
bleachers and along the sidelines, but
no one made a move to leave and there
were even slight murmurs of protest
when Umpire Klem called the game at
the end of the sixth inning. Not that
the fans did not consider that they had
had $2 worth of fun, but they simply
ate up the "big league stuff." By this
time the players were floundering
around in the mud while with every
ball thrown it was a hit and miss af
fair. Still it was a remarkably clean
game, some of the most brilliant one
hand stops and pick-ups setting the
fans wild. Wiltse tried to fool the
Sox and Benz had been picked to keep
the Giants guessing.
The Sox never had a chance at
Wiltse's slants while the Nationals
pounded Joe hard and often, getting a
start of two runs In the first Inning on
two clouts into the outfield.
Fast fielding kept the bases dean
until the fifth, when Lobert's and
Merkle's doubles pulled In one tally,
Rader Plays Third.
Joe Rader, who lives here and who
was with the Sox for a minute last
year, played third, as Schaefer was laid
up with a lame back. Immediately
after the game the Commercial Aaso
ciation here tendered a banquet and
the tourists made their get-away for
Portland at little after 6 o clock.
The score:

vocated that competitions under strict
conditions and limitations between

the indoor senior championships, which
