THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, MARCH 16, 1914L
SOX DEFEAT OAKS,
BUI LOSE TO SEALS
Good Showing Is Made by San
Francisco in Game With
Big Leaguers.
TWO BOOTED BY MURPHY
athrops Wildnees Responsible for
Showing Made by Devlin's Team.
Tozer and Pernoll Backed
by Errorless Fielding.
PAN FRANCISCO, March 15. (Spe
cial.) Comiskey's regulars treated the
Oaks to an 8-to-3 defeat on the Oak
land grounds this morning, making
threo out of the four In favor of the
Sox. The ease with which Prultt was
lilt permitted the Chicagoans to assume
an early and commanding lead. He
stayed on the mound no longer than
four innings, in which brief breathing
Bpell six runs and 10 hits were piled
tip. Tyler Christian followed In be
hind the beaten twlrler and managed
to io nicely, except in the seventh,
when three hits were bunched to give
the visitors two more runs.
Eight innings were played, the time
limit compelling the clubs to call a
halt before the regulation session was
finished. The Oaks had to be con
tented with six hits off the Lathrop
Russell combination and It was the
wildness of Lathrop, who from the
first had trouble in getting the ball
across the plate, that was chiefly re
sponsible for the showing made by the
Devlinites.
Murphy Boots Easy Balls.
Eecond-Sacker Murphy, of the Oaks,
was In his prime when it came to
fielding boots. Two easy chances were
muffed by the new commuter and he
will have to pick up in his work if he
is to have the privilege of holding
down that sack.
The San Franciscans Jn the after
noon concluded the second and final
series against Chicago's best team with
5-to-l score In their favor. It's natural
for all teams to look well when they
are winning, but it's not giving the
Seals any the best'Of it to remark that
they really made a showing worth
while. They played an errorless game
in the field; they landed on Eddie Cl
cotte for nine healthy swats, while the
duet of pitchers for the locals Toser
and Pernoll more than held their
own. each being charged with a brace
of hits. Tozer allowed two passes In
the second that counted for a run and
he was lucky there were no more tal
lies.
Fielding Saves Pernoll.
Pernoll didn't get away to a flying
Start in the sixth, when he came to
the front, but by dint of heavy fielding
the side was retired without a run and
thereafter he was In better shape.
On the aggTesslve the Seals showed
their best form in that same sixth in
ning, bunching four hits ofT Cicotte to
produce three clangs of the bell.
There was a fair Sunday crowd and,
while few thrillers were produced,
there was plenty of action all the way
and It was well along in the session
before the Seals had gained a com
manding lead.

Harper Hammers Out Two Home
Runs in Game With Fresno.
SAN BERNARDINO, Cal.. March 13.
(Special.) Dillon used two veterans
in the game with Fresno today, Tom
Hughes, ex-Senator, and Carley Chech,
and won, 9 to 2. It was altogether a
hitting game and four home runs and
six doubles were registered. Wald
schmldt, the husky German recruit,
who Berry has turned over to Fresno,
opened for the Raisin Pickers, gave
way to Lane in the fifth and the lat
ter was relieved by Bentley In the
eighth. Hughes worked well consid
ering it was his first mound duty this
year, allowing only four hits and one
run.
Harper, the young outfielder who
was grabbed from San Jose, poled two
home runs, one in the second and one
In the fourth, no one, however, being
on the bases. McNeely, of Fresno,
sandwiched a circuit drive in the third,
while Benson followed suit In the last
frame. Harry Meek, who was sent in
by Dillon to play first, got a double in
the third and scored Maggert and
Page. Calvo got a double and a single
and pilfered two bases.
Hughes broke his curves over the
plate and fanned Benson and Reed in
the first He treated Calvo likewise
at the opening of the second.

TIGERS AGAIN WALLOP MAJOR'S
Sot Have Only Three Wins to Credit
for Fortnight of Flaying.
LOS ANGELES, March 15. (Special.)
The Tigers tore off the lumpy end of
a 6-to-3 score today, thereby sending
the White Sox away with only three
wins to show for their sojourn here
a fortnight of striving and failure to
connect.
Scott took hold in the fifth inning.
This was Scott's first appearance.
John Kane hit the ball to the center
field fence for a home run, with two
on, in the eighth.-
For three innings Scott had been
smoking the Tigers away from the
plate as fast as they could file up.
Scott hit the ball to the fence him
self in the ninth. He got credit for
a home run because "Rowdy" Elliott,
thinking it would make good reading
back in Chicago, where they have been
receiving nothing but bad news, posi
tively refused to touch him at the
plate.
Hogan divided the pitching three
ways,- Hitt, Harkness and White get
ting a three-inning assignment each.
Venice scored two runs through force
of habit in the first With two down.
Babe" Borton playfully hit the ball
to left for two bases. Bayless brought
him in . with a single to the same lo
cality.
Barbour knocked down Kane's swift
one and then made a futile attempt
to nail Johnny at first. Meantime
Bayless was beating It for the plate
like a budding Kiviat. This so horri
fied Halstein that- he threw to Mayer
about six minutes late. Schrelger
strangled Hosp's fly for the third out.
Litschi walked in the second, rushed
to third when Elliott whistled a single
over Halstein and scored on Hitt's
slow demise, Blackburne to Halstein.

SPORTSMEN TO 1
OBJECTION TO LAW
Annual Convention of Oregon
Hunters Will Convene in
Portland Today.
DUCK SEASON ONE TOPIC
William Ii. Finley to Address Session.
Governor West's Methods in
Fish and Game Department
' Also to Be Discussed.
The first annual convention of the
sportsmen of Oregon will be held to
day at the Commercial Club. Its ob
ject is the discussion of game condi
tions, game laws and game adminis
tration on the part of the state. The
result Is expected to be a better un
derstanding between the sportsmen of
the state, the sportsmen and the laws
and the sportsmen and the men who
enforce the laws.
The 100 or more delegates will meet
in an all-day session, which will be ad
dressed by William L. Finley, State
Biologist, and officers of the Multno
mah Anglers' Club, which is responsi
ble for the convention.
One of the measures to be debated
most freely and which will not be han
died with gloves Is that of the duck
season of Oregon.
Dock Season Not Liked.
Last season, the first under which
hunters shot- ducks according to the
Federal regulations, was most unsat
isfactory to the shooters, though sat
isfactory to the game officials.
The season began .November 1 and
ended February 16. The best shoot
ing of the season was the last week
of that period, according to many, and
the hunters believe that it began too
early and ended too early.
Hunters have overlooked the fact
that ducks are getting more scarce
every year and need better nroteetlon.
To prevent extermination of the birds
was one of the reasons the Govern
ment took control of the game seasons.
Better Understanding Likely.
This convention Is designed for the
threshing out of just such knotty
problems. William L. Finley will speak
from the technical side of the subject
and the meeting Is expected to result
in a better understanding of conditions
on the part of the sportsmen.
The matter of fish distribution also
will be discussed. .The Multnomah
Anglers' Club assisted the game de
partment last year and it will again
attempt to co-operate with the distri
bution. It is understood the methods of Gov
ernor West in regard to the fish and
game department also will be dis
cussed and a stormy session may re
sult A beefsteak dinner will be served at
the Commercial Club tonight. Follow
ing this motion pictures of an Oregon
hunt and of wild life will be shown to
the visiting sportsmen.

Game Is Good Workout.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, Or., March 15.
(Special.) In the first game of
the baseball season here yesterday.
Coach Clarke's bushers defeated the
Chemawa Indian School team 6 to 5.
The game was slow and featured by
the ragged play of the locals. The
braves played a hard-hitting game,
garnering 12 bingles off the delivery of
the Aggie twirlers, but lost on poor
fielding and lack of team work.
The game was a good workout, how
ever, for both teams and numerous
shifts . of players were made in the
course of the contest
"Blinky" Morgan, who started at
shortstop for the Aggies, was in poor
form and made all the three errors
chalked up against his team. Goble
played his usual aggressive game at
first but all of the collegians were
hardly up to their usual batting
average.
Coach Clarke used three, twirlersj
starting the game with Captain Culver
and changing in turn to Moreland and
then to "Billy" Williams. Williams
put up an excellent exhibition, whif
fing five men during the first two in

up a good game for the Indians at

Gould and Covey have shown excep
tional speed and skill in their prac
tice matches durincr the last two

his play, and Court tennis experts re
port; that Gould s form is better tnan
at any time in his playing career.

of 13 sets, is scheduled to be played
in three sections, Monday, Wednesday

PORTLAND TRAINING CAMP, Santa
Maria, Cal., March 15. (Special.) Two
recruit pitchers, Hanson and Peet. and
one veteran. Hlgglnbotham, demonstrat
ed superlatively for the Portland cham
pions today, and. as a result, the Mc
Credie clan hung up a double killing.
The scores:
Portland Regulars. 3; Pinal Oil. 2
(seven innings).
Portland Yannigans, 8; Santa Maria.
0 (five innings).
Portland ran against a snag in Rojas,
a Spanish twlrler, in the initial en
counter. This same Rojas tamed the
Tannlgans last Sunday, and he had a
lot of holdover hot stuff this after
noon. Rojas goes to the Stockton State
Leaguers.
Hig Pitches In Form.
Higginbotham pitched excellent ball
and, with better support, would have
scored a shutout. Gus Fisher mis
judged a drive In right for the Initial
run, and Gus also let the other trickle
across on a wild heave to first.
Pinal's diamond outfit, however. Is
far superior to the usual interior town
team, and it kept McCredie busy with
the prod throughout the entire running.
Speas batted in one run by a double.
and Milligan came through with what
proved to be the winning tally by a
three-base swat to left, following
closely on a two-bagger by Kores.
Rodgers is hunting, so Bancroft held
down second in both games. He se
cured two hits against. Rojas.
Haworth Starts Well.
Homer Haworth handled Hig
ginbotham's slants with much eclat,
and threw two men out in three at
tempts at thefts. He is beginning to
look like a good second catcher, and it
begins to look as if Claude Berry will
not be missed.
Elmer Hanson and Harold Peet were
on the hill for the Yannigans in the
second game, opposing Southpaw Hall
and Jack Gilllgan. Both Hanson and
Peet were invincible. Hanson allowed
three scattered hits in three innings,
and had the locals bewildered.
Peet made an even more impressive
debut. McCredie said, after the game,
that he appeared the most finished of
the four big recruits. The ex-Uni
versity of Oregon six-footer fanned all
three men in his first Inning, and
whiffed one man In his next frame. He
worked only two innings, but one hit
was the best the Marians could muster.
Peet Has Some Speed.
Peet has a wonderful sldearm sweep
and throws a ball that comes up much
faster than the batters figure. ' He
walked one man " with two out, but
seemed to have good control, for he
was curving the ball even when in a
hole.
Southpaw Hall, the Santa Barbara
phenom, who is the most recent camp
fixture, pitched three innings for Santa
Maria and received weird support.
Frank Jessees' bunch handled the ball
as gingerly as though It were a small
pox germ. Six runs the Yannigans ran
up on Hall in his incumbency, and then
he quit In favor of Gilllgan.
Davis featured with a home run
driving one ahead of him. Kores also
plunked out a circuit drive off Gilllgan
After five and one-half innings of
the comedy of errors, the crowd began
riling out and the umpire called quits.
As the thermometer registered another
scorching day, the players welcomed
the abbreviation.

SPOKAXK INDIAN'S TROUNCED
Mike Iynch Sends Four Pitchers
Against San Rafael Team.
BOTES SPRINGS. CaL. March" 15.-
(Special.) The scheduled game to take
place at Boyes Springs today between
the stay-at-homes and the Spokane In
dians was somewhat changed about
when San Rafael sent a challenge to
the Spokane club last night, and, not
withstanding the fact that Nig Clarke's
squad had plenty of workouts last
week, they stepped aside to let the
Marin County athletes pit their talents
against the youngsters trying to make
the Northwestern League.
Manager Mike Lynch put four pitch
ers in the box in nine Innings, giving
each one an opportunity of showing
what he was made of. The first three
innings were handled by Sharon, and
no runs were scored. Spaulding fol
lowed for three innings, and also held
San Rafael runless. Then Healon was
put In the fray for two innings. The
San Rafael boys heaped up 11 runs.
but this should not discredit the ability
of Pitcher Healon, as It was only his
second day in the camp, and he suf
fered some pain from a blistered ankle.
The score was 11 to 8. "Possum"
Clarke's crew showed up at the game
and lent a picturesque atmosphere In
the grandstand with their starched col
lars against their bronzed skins.

Owner of Seattle Club Says He Will
Fight Metkle, Who Wants to Col

SEATTLE, Wash., March 15. (Spe
cial.) "I shall fight the case to the
last ditch," said President Dugdale,
discussing the decision of the National
board of arbitration confirming the de
cision that would compel Seattle to pay
Pitcher Willard Melkle J120, reckoned
from his time of suspension last Fall
to the close of the season.
An appeal to the National commission
will be taken Immediately.
It is alleged by those familiar with
the controversy that Meikle "put one
over on Dug." Meikle received a big
salary on the assumption that he was
going to be a great star. He proved of
little use to the club.
Finally Dug became convinced that
Meikle was not taking care of himself
and suspended him.
"Both Manager Raymond and 1
signed the order of suspension," said
Dugdale. "ilelklo then asked that I
let him down easy. I did not care to
humiliate him with his people and gave
him a letter in which I said something
about a lame arm, instead of being out
of condition. Somo of the baseball
lawyers on the team told him that
under the new ruling he could not be
suspended on that account and that
he could make Seattle pay mm nis
salarv. He took the case to the Na
tional Association, where his claim was
allowed. This may be putting one
over on Seattle, but It will work to the
disadvantage of the players In the long
run. In the future I shall always De

Although tho harness game Is still

ertheless see some good racing this
season. The latest bit of encouraging
news Is that Clayton Fallace and J. S.
Sawyer will open a training stable at
the Salem Fair grounds. They will
have some of the best horses In the
West at the track.
One of their best prospects is Milton
Jones, a green trotter. This horse is
a full brother to Doctor Jones, now at
Brooklyn, and Is credited with a mark
of 2:04H-
Lady Jones, the horse that defeated
the famous Harvester, is a half-brother
of Milton Jones. Lady Jones Is cred
ited with a mark of 2:07.
Arclock, a green pacer, also has
been taken charge of by Faliace and
Sawyer.
Alfreda B., 2:10, is now in Montana
and will be in the Salem stable in a
few weeks. Oregon Patch, by Joe
Patchen, father of Dan Patch, is also
in the stable. The remainder are all
green, but the trainers believe they
have some stock that will be the life
of the next races.
Both are heartily in favor of the
early circuit and are priming their
stable with the Idea of having it ready
for an early opening on the proposed

INJUNCTION TO BE SOUGHT
President Gilmore Says Legal Ad

Playing Agreement GoodPark
Suit Doesn't Worry Him.
CHICAGO. March 15. (Special.)
William Killifer will have until Thurs
day to report to the Chicago Federal
League club at Shreveport, La. E. E.
Gates, attorney for the new league,
will file his affidavits on that day In
the Federal Court at Grand Rapids,
Mich., asking for a permanent injunc
tion against the catcher which will
enjoin him from playing with any
other baseball team excepting the Chi
cago club.
James A. Gilmore. president of tho
league, gave out this information to
day, asserting that several Jurists had
assured him that Killifer has no de
fense and that an injunction will surely
follow when the papers are filed.
Three Must Face Court.
Mr. Gates has been busy with court
proceedings and has not been able to
start suit against Killifer, according
to Mr. Gilmore, but the whole matter
will be thrown on the court to decide
not later than Thursday. The Killifer
case will be the first of a series to be
started by the "Feds."
Gilmore is planning to bring Bland
ing and Kahler, the Cleveland twirlers,
into court to show cause why they
should not report to the Federal
League, but this will not take place
until tee Killifer matter shall have
been disposed of.-
"We have acted In fairness to Killi
fer. Blanding and Kahler," Gilmore
said tonight, "but we do not propose
to be imposed upon. Each of these
players signed a contract with tha
league and received money on his sal
ary. Federal Contracts Good.
"Our contracts -are as good as any
issued in this country and we are go
ing to see whether a man can break a
contract at will. The players will save
themselves a lot of trouble if they will
report at once, for just as soon as we
start our court action it will be too
late to settle out of court."
President Gilmore looked over the
new park being erected on the North
Side today. He said that he had heard
nothing further about the injunction
asked by residents against the build
ing of the baseball stands. He asserted
that it seemed impossible to him to
stop them as they looked to all these
details before starting work.
