10 THE 3TOKNTSG ORFGOXTAjS", MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1914. BEAVERS READY 10 FLY AT SENATORS Town of 1913 Contenders In vaded by Champions for Renewal of Old Feud. FISHER'S ARM IS IN FORM Klawitter and Possibly Kroner to Oppose Jlig on 3Iound Sacra mento to Have Holiday Colts May Get Coast Men. BT nOS.'OB l'AWCETT. RjVCKAMENTO, Cat.'. March in. (Spe cial.) In race-horse condition, lean and Finewy, trained to the minute, the Portland Coast League champions swooped down upon Sacramento this afternoon ready for the league opening two days in the offing. Rain caused the cancellation of the two-pames series between the Beavers and the Stocktonites at Stockton, and also put a crimp in the Sacramento Portland Colt practice skirmish. But Manager McCredie. of Portland, says his athletes are in pood physical condi tion and perfectly tuned, even without their dress rehearsal. So. if weather permits, the Sacramento-Portland feud of 191 ;t will bo resumed Tuesday at Buffalo Park. McCredie's Beavers worked out for 30 minutes yesterday at Stockton, and Jus Fisher cut loose a few pegs to the bases. "My arm is right at last," said JJus upon his arrival with the gang at the Sacramento Hotel. "My week's lay off has fixed me out." Derrick Is Afflicted. Fred Derrick has been troubled with boils the last three or four days, but expects to be ready Tuesday. No ninth-hour switches were an nounced today in either camp. The teams will report Tuesday at 3 o'clock practically as the ballet and coryphee rehearsals have found them in the pre liminaries. This is how the Senators will line up In batting array: Shinn, right lield; Toung. shortstop: De Forrest, second base; Tennant, first base; Moran. center field; Schweitzer. left field; Hallinan, third base; Hannah, catcher, and Kla witter. pitcher. If Klawitter sends out the "S. O. S." sign for any of the various and possible reasons, Ray Kremer, Oakland busher, will relieve him, says Wolverton. Portland's lineup will be: Doane, right field; Davi3, shortstop; Rodgers, second base: Ryan, center field; Korea, third base: Lober, left field; Derrick, first base; Fisher, catcher, and Higgin botham, pitcher. Pitching Robber" Dae. Higginbotham and "Dutch" Klawit ter, teammates on the 1912 Portland squad, hooked up against each other just twice all last year, according to Hig. The result was one victory each, and Tuesday will furnish the rubber. Aside from Klawitter, 'Wolverton has only two absolutely known pitching quantities, Stroud and Arellanes. Greg ory, Kllroy and Slagle are expected to put on their "come back" duds and Cann has a record, but all these last mentioned ones must show something more tangible than the Spring cam paign has uncovered to make a go of It. The City Commission has adopted a proclamation declaring one-fourth of Tuesday a city holiday. So the City Hall will close tighter than Chinatown at 2:45 o'clock. Managers McCredie and Williams, of the Portland league clubs, conferred tonight, and announcement of one or two transfers of Beaver surplus mate rial to the Colts is expected within the week. "WET GROl'XDS KEEPS COLTS IX Surra men to Game Called Off Bea vers Xcxt Foe. SACRAMENTO, Cal., March 29. (Spe cial.) Missing their first day of the training season today on account of bad weather, the Sacramento Wolves took a rest when Captain Wolverton decided that the morning rain had left tno grounds too wet for the scheduled game with the Portland Northwestern ers. The real test will begin Tuesday when the Portland Coast champions of 1913 open the league race here against the Wolves. With the exception of a bad leg that is slightly handicapping the recruit second baseman, Forrest, but which is rapidly mending, the Wolves are in the pink of condition. Sailor Stroud, Tabey Arellanes, Wal ter Slagle and young Ray Kremer will each take care of one game against the Beavers this week. Dutch Klawitter will probably work in two games of the opening series, returning to the mound for the Sunday afternoon game before what should be the biggest crowd that ever saw a baseball game In Sacramento. Walter McCredie and his band of Beavers will arrive here tomorrow to Ket a. short workout on the local grounds and a good rest before the big opening tomorrow. Captain Wolverton will have his boys out for a short workout in signal practice and other lines of teamwork but the work will be light and of short duration.

DANCE PROVIDES EXPENSES Anna Kutledge and Esther South Expcclcd to Represent Corval lis, Though Ruth Shepard AVill Try for Position. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, March 29. (Special.) In order to complete the fund pro vided by the Pastime Club of the Uni versity of California for sending cham pion co-ed tennis players from the Ag. ricultural College to Berkeley for the tennis tournament the last of April the Waldo Club gave an informal matinee dance in the gymnasium March 21. Music for the event was furnished free by the cadet band as their share of the bargain made with the Waldo girls in the 1915 Orange contest. In which the girls did effective subscription work. Although the coming tournament is chiefly a California affair, girls from the Oregon college have been invited to contest and have been offered ?75 to defray expenses of. the trip. There are a large number of California stu dents in the Oregon institution, espe cially in the domestic science classes. This fact has led to close and friendly relations between the two schools, re sulting In this case in the invitation to join in the tennis tournament. Just who will represent the college has not been positively announced, but the selection is regarded rather as a formality, since the honor has been practically won by Anna Rutledge and Esther South. Miss Rutledge was the principal factor in winning the tennis championship from the university last Fall. Always a skilled and vigorous player, she is said to be in exception ally good form this Spring and is uni versally conceded to be sure of a place on the team. Miss South is a new con tender for championship honors, but is said by Miss Ruth Shepard, Miss Rut ledge's former teammate, to be a "wis." "I shall try for a place," ccntlnued Miss Shepard, "but realize that Miss South has it already won. I am glad of this, since It means a stronger team. I think we stand an excellent show to bring back first honors." GOULD ID MATE WIN ENGLISH TEXXIS TEAM LOSES THREE SETS OK DOUBLES.

HELENA DEFEATS NIPPONESE TEAM Jess Garrett's Players Take Heavy End of 19 to 0 Score. Japanese Are Promising. LOCAL BOY PITCHES WELL 'Chubby'' Arthur, cx-Star of Jeffer. t.on Hisrh School, Allows Three Hits in Seven Innings Before Typical Northwest Crowd. International baseball at Vaughn- street Park yesterday afternoon led to a 19 to 0 defeat of the Mikado club by Jess Garrett's Helena club before a typical Northwestern League Sunday crowd. Despite the one-sided score tho game showed that the Japanese can play baseball. The team which faced Jess Garrett yesterday has been handling the gloves and balls for a much shorter time than the other team. Oc casional flashes of real baseball showed that when the Mikado club does know a bit more about the Na tional same it's going to be hard work heading them. One factor which will have to be credited them is their speed at get ting rid of the ball the snap and "pep" with which they put on evert movement. That, coupled with a little better stick work and more knowledge of the game, will make the Japanese real contenders in the amateur field. amc Rout of Japanese. As for yesterday's game, it was a rout. In the first inning Jess Gar rett's club piled up five runs when every man got a chance to bat. That start showed the Nipponese to be a little on edge, for one run was let in on an error and another man was placed on first through lax nan dling of tho ball. Steppe pulled through with a three sacker that got down to the fence and had the Japs going for the timber. Pitcher Harada was hit on the end of the finger trying to get a "burner." Scki then took the mound and mat ters settled somewhat. The rest of the runs did not come in bunches, but were scattered through the remaining innings. "Chubby" Arthur, the ex-Jefferson High School star, again was used by Garrett. "Chubby" looked mighty sweet. In his seven rounds he at lowed the Japanese not a run and but three hits. Delivery Is Easy. The beauty of "Chubby's" style is the ease with which he handles the pellet. He did not burn out a fuse against the Japs in any instance, but the ball seemed to be beyond reach. Jess' expected delivery of stars did not take place, but they will be on hand today. The week will show the Helena club in several games. Columbia Uni versity will be played on Wednesday afternoon. On Saturday Karl King will be here from Salem with his Baker team. Two games will be played, one Saturday and one Sunday. Then comes the scries with Nick Williams and after that Jess expects to play the University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural College.
