to Let City Keep North

OUSTING IN 1915 IS HINTED
Schedule for Portland After Coming
Season Calls for Clans AX Club
Only and B Men Are So
Adrlsed at Session.
" SAN FRANCISCO. Dec 5 8peclal.)
The big- Northwestern Baseball
League delegation here felt happy
tonight and well repaid for the trip to
San Franclaco. for at the opening ses
sion of the Pacific Coast League's an
nual pieetlntT permisaton waa granted
to allow Portland to remain in the
Class B circuit. The scheduled clash
between the two sets of magnates did
not take place, although the discus
sion of whether or not Portland was
to hare continuous ball was gone over
thoroughly.
In the end the Coast League mag
nates roted the N'orthwesterners the
right to Invade Portland In 1914. but
the intimation was given that it will
le the last year the Coast League
territory will be open to the minora
Time Gives te Shape Plaaa.
The schedule calls for only the
Class AA club In Portland in 115. and
the Northwestern League has been ad
vised to lay its plans accordingly.
which means that some other North
west city will have to e taken In to
complete the circuit.
Before the afternoon session there
was a feeling among the Coast mag
nates to refuse the necessary permis
sion. The Northwestcrners evidently
scented trouble, for they were on band
in round numbers. Upsides the two
MeCredles. J mice W. W. and Walter,
there were President Fielder Jones. D.
, Dug-dale, of Seattle; F. W. Farr. and
Mike Lynch, of Spokane, and Manager
Nick Williams. The delegation as a
whole put up a friendly talk and sta
tistics were introduced to show that
continuous baseball was not hurting
the game In Portland.
The Coast League was contemplating
excluding the Northwesterners from
Portland because the attendance at the
Coast Karnes was on the wane. Much
conversation must have been uncorked
on the subject, fur the magnates were
in close conference fur over three
hours, and that was practically the
nly business transacted at the ses
sion. Social Time Follows.
President A. T. Caum. Jack Cook
and Judge W. -W. McCredie were ap
pointed a committee to draw up the
schedule for next season's pennant race
end they will report tomorrow.
Those in attendance at the Coast
gatherlnr were: Preslden Baum. Frank
Leavitt and Jack Cook, of Oak
land; Harry Wolvcrton. Lloyd Jacobs
and Charley tiraham, of Sacramento:
Henry F-erry and Tom Stephens, of
Los Angeles; Happy H-gan. of Venice,
and J. Cal KwIiik. of San Francisco.
After the afternoon's business was
concluded the Northwestern and Coast
magnates joined hands in a social
gathering and nothing but the utmost
friendliness ' was displayed on both
aides.
I'OP.TLAXD FAXS GIIATIFIED
Williama' Popularity and "Class" of
League Drawing Cards.
While there would have been no
great hullabaloo no mutter which way
the verdict went. Portland ball fans
are highly gratified at the continua
tion of Northwestern League baseball
in Portland, even though but for one
year longer.
While the patrcnairo doesn't figure
strongly with the Pacific Coast League
as the alternate attraction. Nick Wil
liams is extremely popular here, and
the victory of his second-place B
League club over the Coast League
pennant winners in the post-season
game, will do much next season to
boost the Northwestern attendance.
Come right down to cases there Isn't
a great d-al of difference in the class
of ball served up ty the two leagues,
for the Northwestern is really entitled
to a class A rating. But fans in Port
land are used to Coast League pedi
greed stock and those who have not
the time to turn out dally generally
reserve their attention -for the AA
league teams.
As in the past two seasons. Portland
tll likely get 15 weeks of Pacific
Coast ball and 10 weeks of Northwest
era ball Bund witt hed in. That means
continuous ball from April 15 to the
first week of October.
And only 118 days more until April
1. Oct out your score book.
OREGON WOLF IV IS RAISED
'o Real Damage Evident to Racing
t'rnft as Ilenlt of Accident.
The Oregon Wolf IV. which sank
Thanksgiving day and caused the
death of Albert H. Stone, was raised
yesterday by city Grapier Hugh Brady.
It was taken In tow and is now in
its berth at tiie Portland Motorboat
Club.
A thorough examination has not been
made by Builder John E. Wolff, but a
glance at as much as can be seen of
the hull and engine shows no heavy
damage. The engine had not had time
to rust, and. further than that the mag
netoes were thoroughly immersed,
there was no real damage evident.
With proper cleaning It ts thought
that tae damage can be staved off to
less than $300. Including the lost tools
and parts.
The fact that the hull was not dam
aged and showed no marks of having
hit anything bears out the story that
the boat simply lost its balance and
rolled over without the aid of any ob
structions. The hull is of such light material
that the slightest collision with such
a thing as a stick of cordwood would
have left a heavy mark.
BOUT ADDED TO CLUB SMOKER

R. B. F. Roller, the ez-Seattle
medico, is not the champion
wrestler of the world or any
where near It. but. wise fans winked
slyly at the office, cat when his defeat
by Demetral. - the Greek, the other
night was s sipping over the wires
out of San Liego.
That another fraraeup had been per
petrated, was a - -
cinch. but the
.1 k.K!n,1 thA
maneuver seemea
unfathomable.
Joe Carroll, one
1
of the frameup
gang who flim
flammed the peo
ple of Seattle a few
years ago with the
Holler combination,
furnishes the key to
the rebus.
Writing to the
Seattle Hun. Carroll.
v.-
i
Joe Carrol L
now a bitter enemy -of Roller, says:
"Your ball out of Roller was good:
likewise of me but I'm not kicking
about that. You have seen where he
was defeated by Demetral at San Diego.
I sav defeated, I mean laid down, for
I will have to admit that Roller can
beat the Greek. But he bad go9d
reason for not winning.
"Farmer Burns heard that Roller had
been roasting him so Burns sent a
challenge to Roller through me. I
knew if I went to Von Angeles and
issued the challenge Roller would tell
the. papers I had been sent to Leaven
worth, and he would have nothing to
do with me. So I had him wire It to
Jim Jeffries and Jeffries challenged
Roller In behalf of bim.
"Roller told the papers he would ac
cept if he beat Demetral. Now you can
easily 1 see why Roller did not bat
the isreek. He did not dare for fear
they would make him post a forfeit to
meet Burns so he chose the easiest way
out of It and flopped and took the
next train Esst."
In the good old days of wrestling
In Seattle, Carroll, alias. Joe Marsh,
persuaded Burns to lay down to Roller.
But. there's no question but that the
veteran "Farmer," now S3 years old
and weighing only 170 pounds, could
spatter Roller's 220 pounds of bulk
all over the mat. Burns Is one prodigy
that they all steer clear of when the
matches are on the square.
Demetral and John Berg are matched
for a "sldebet" of 1 1 000 to wrestle' In
San Diego on December 11.
If there Isn't a scandal in Pan Diego

Reported Loss of Finger From
Pitching Hand Proves to
Be Merely Scratch.
FANS' SWAN SONG IS SHORT
Sight of Twlrler With Member In
Bandages Starts Discussion of
Possibilities of Hurler
With Abbreviated Digits. ,
What would Fall and Winter be for
the live sport fan without Dame Ro
mor? Just how much of a part the
troublesome lady has In, the stove
league was shown when Speck Hark
ness. without even knowing it him
self, was relegated to the shelf by. all
but a few fans.
It happened this way.
"Speck" passed through the middle
of the town yesterday with his right
food-grabber" handsomely swathed In
undertakers' bunting. He waa In
hurry and no one stopped him. but
least 50 saw him passing up the street
with his bandaged hand.
Out of. that grew what was calcu
lated to be one of the real post season
stories. The news editor had space
laid out for the story and many Illus
trations of the "speckled beauty."
'I tell you that settles him." said
one fan. "I admit there are a limited
few who have pitched some kind of ball
minus a finger, but then tbey are
mighty scarce, and I think "Speck" had
better get good and ready to hang
tight to that Job of wharfinger.
The report had gotten around that
Speck had inadvertently dropped a fin
ger between the lips of a "clam-dig-ger."
It was seen that it was the middle
digit of the right hand which waa re
ceiving 'the care of the doctors. AUo
so much of the hand waa covered with
the snowy white wrapper that It waa
not thought possible that any of the
finger could remain.
Another fan brought the examples of
Mordccal Brown and Munsell on the
subjocL
'Look at tho ball those fellows
pitched with their fingers gone. Brown
showed a lot of stuff which a fllnger
with a good set of lunch hooks never
could."
That's all very true." came back
Number One. "However. Speck Is par
ticularly hard on curves and he needs
every one of them to roll them off
with the right kind of gusto.
The middle finger in particular
needs the length. The longer It la the
better the curve. Did you ever notice
that It's the pitcher with the longest
fingers that gets off the . best twist
ers?"
About that time entered Jimmy Rich
ardson. Naturally he waa Immediately
brought Into the discussion.
Jimmy had heard that Speck had
an Injured digit, but was sure that it
was not gone, nor even partially dis
membered. He thought of a solution.
Speck was called up.
"What's this we hear about you quit
ting the game because of a lost fin
ger. Speck?" he was asked.
"Nothing to it," answered Harkness
from his post at the sand ock in
Kenton.
"Why the packing about the right
hand?'' he was asked by one of the
big hitters In the stove league.
"I got my finger Into part o'f the
dredging machinery," said liarkness.
"A piece of wire entered the ball of
my finger and caused a slight case of
blood-poisoning. 1 guess the fellows
have seen me on my way back from
the doctor's office. It Is about healed
over now and, although lanced, very
llttlo akin was removed."
All of the assemblage breathed eas
ier and fell back In their chairs.
It was thought a good time to ask
Speck what the business of "wharfin
ger" was before he hung up.
Harkness Is always willing to elu
cidate, so the question was fired at
him.
"Well, you see. It's this way. The
state has not been "treating the carp

Cherry, presumably. Is always found
at the bottom of the scrimmage.
It may be a coincidence but not a
word has been heard from C. W.
Murphy., of the Chicago Cubs, -since
Tener was Announced as the new Na
tional League president.
Joe Tinker has always hsd a lot of
friends and admirers in Portland, his
starting point, but this respect and ad.
miration has been considerably In
creased by his refusal to remain In
Cincinnati unless given free rein to
run his ball club. Tinker could have
plodded along and drawn his salary
for being the office boy but he refused
to be a figure head and chucked the
rebuttal back where It belonged. Herr
mann has scrambled along at the head
of a Joke ball club for 15 or It years
and It seems high time that he ought
to wake up. He may know how to run
the National 'Commission, but ap
parently he doeant know how to boss
his team.

Harkness was thanked again, and
the fans were much relieved. Tbat Job

Connie Mark's Philadelphia pitchers
rank low under the earned-run system.
Benaer. eighth In the list. Is the only
one who can be called a leader. Shaw-
key is Hth. I'lank :0th. Brown 27th.
Bush 4(th and llouck and Wyckoff are
numbers and 55.
These seven pitchers worked 1!T0
Innings, or a shade more than 141 full
games. They gave 603 runs, of which
43S were earned. The percentage of
earned runs for the entire staff was
1.08 a game, while the percentage ol
runs was only 3.68.
A pitcher with a percentage of 3.08
would have stood somewhere between
Mosley, of Boston, who was 33d In
the list, and Wlllett. of Detroit, who
stood 44th in the last of 69.
The averages bear out Connie Mack's
contention that Byron Houck. the
Portland boy, la the wildest man In
the world. Neighbors in Byron'a apart-
ment-houxe on the West Side should
beware.
Byron, Incidentally, showed flashes
of that when lie pitched here for the
Washington High School four years
ago. ,
In the past season Houck walked
122 men. Yean Gregg walked 121. but
he pitched 2SS innings as against
Houck's 175 2-3. As "sharpshooter
Gregg had it on Houck. The Nap
twlrler "beaned" 14, while Houck hit
but S. Hughes was even more deadly
than Oregg. as he hit 14 In 129 Innings.
